For over two years prior
to 1911, the Hicks Almanac again
sounded a warning of drouth dam
ger. And so for forty years this
same friend of all the people has
steadfastly refused the offers of
spectators and continued to warn
the public of the coming danger of
storm and weather. As they
should have done, the people have
nobly stood by Professor Hicks,
their faithful public servant, who
has grown old in their service.

Appoints Experts

The United States government,
in furtherance of plan that has
been under consideration for a long
time, has decided to take the same
active interest in the development
of its mineral resources that it does
in agriculture and forestry. To
this end the Interior department
has appointed four or five consult
ing engineers to investigate and
report on everything that has to do
with the practical side of mining
in and near the United States.
One of these engineers is from
Washington, one from Philadelphia
one from Pittsburgh, one from
Denver and one from Duluth, the
latter being Dwight E. Wood
bridge. His part of the COM
prehensive scheme that has been
laid out is the work on iron ores,
and those who made the plan
consider it quite fitting that a man
from Duluth, which is the center
of the greatest iron mining activities
of the world, should have been Sc
lected for that important duty.
The instructions that have been
given to those engineers are said to
be broad, and to cover the entire
field of their respective lines of in
vestigation, not only in territory
but in a scope of work that will be

Walter r. Wilmot, the manager, an
aounces, after visiting leading manu-

will be of interest to both dealers and
prospective purchasers. The most i'm

of a practicable self-starter, applicable
to many different makes, which will
put the gasoline automobile on an
equality with the electric, and fits the
gas car to the average woman's use
and almost marks the passing of the
chauffeur. The closed cars will show
many advances. The front, or oper-
ator's seat, is housed. The diversity
and luxuriousness in appointments Of
auto cars will be especially interest

has been fitted with bodies much i'm
proved in many details. Seats are to
be wider than heretofore, doors to the
front as well as to the rear are to
protect the driver as well as the party.

usually large company is required
to present these clever skits and
each one of the cast has been
selected with great case, with the
result that the players are almost
in reality the people they are sup
posed to depict. One of the
features of this tuneful comedy is
the production. Never before in
the history of this attraction have
they had more elaborate scenic
than is used with this
sparkling comedy. The scenes of
the piece ali transpire in Spain,
which gives the scenic artists un-
usual opportunities for the display
of their achievement. Seat sale at

Absolutely Pure


national in its nature and results.
The appointment for the iron work
was made some little time ago, and
Mr.. Woodbridge has been busy in
preliminary details that could be
carried forward at home. He
has gone to Washington, where
he will be for short time, and
will probably go from there into
the eastern iron districts about New
York, Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sey, where he has work that require
some months. His headquarters
will continue to be in Duluth, and
the greater portion of the work
will be handled from here.
It is the understanding with the
government that none of these
engineers is expected to give up his
private practice, but to continue
his usual work, as is the general
custom with experts and scientists
assigned to special duty by the
government.

Wesley College conservatory is hav-
ing an unprecedented attendance dur
ing the present semester. The regiStra-
ton has now passed the $40 mark
which is far in excess of the number
registered at this time last year. In
deed it exceeds the total registration
for 1911-12 by 26. Inasmuch as new
Students matriculate almost daily it IL
evident that the total number for 1912
Is will far surpass that of the present.
This means that the conservatory is
playing a large part in the life of the
university community and of the city
of Grand Forks. Students who are
here for the purpose Of pursuing their
studies at the University find an excel
lent opportunity at hand to supplement
their education by some line of musi-
cal study, and, on the other hand,
those who came with the primary pur-
pose of studying music find advant-
ages at the University in the English
and Language or other departments.
