THE CHOCOLATE SOLDIER, !,
Coming TO the Rhode Thursday Night,
March 7th.

The Chocolate Soldier, is still the
Iconquering hero in the vast army Of
light operas that asspil the American
theatre When he holds his reception
at the Rhode Opera House, Kenosha,
on Thursday night, March eth, it is
no idle boast to predict that the throng
| of admirers who come to greet him
will be fully as great as in other cities,
| for the charming warrior never wears
out his welcome.
This superb operate mixture of
| Viennese melodies and Celtic wit and
/, satire, with bulgarian scenes, manners
i and customs forming a splendid back
ground of romance, is the work of
Oscar Straus. the composer Of Vienna,
and Bernard Shaw, the Irish wit and
playwright, from whose romantic sa-
tire, farms and the Man, the IL
bretto of 1sThe Chocolate Soldier is
, derived. 1T is chiefly the music which
has given the opera It's remarkable
REPUTATION. Such melodies as My
Hero, the waltz refrain which is the
dominant theme Of the enhancing
score, The Letter Song, ssThat
Would be Lovely and The Choco-
late Soldier" are still monopolizing
1.-THE memories of thousands,
Elegance, richness and realism char
aeterize every production made by Mr..
Whitney, and "The Chocolate Sol
dier,S' as given this season, is a SUI
preme example of Mr.. Whitney S idea
iof an adequate production. One of
the strongest features Of the tour is
the orchestra of picked musicians,
many Of whom were members of the
original orchestra during the 4 New
York production Of the opera, and un-
der the leadership Of Max Fishandler.
The opera will be presented in the
same excellent manner as that which
characterized the production and cast
IN the larger clules. Inc supporting
company which includes, Frances He
witt, Roy Purvienee, Lolita Gale, j.
Russell Powell, Emma LOOMS, Olive
Randolph, Nelson Riley, J. F. Me-
Donough and George Ogle, maintains
the same high standard Of excellence
as characterized the Casino Theatre.

To WAR ON WO0DMEN
Permanent Organization of
Insurgents Perfected at
Minneapolis Friday.
FEARS WRECK OF THE ORDER


Permanent organization of the Ma
tional Woodmen assembly was effected
and plans for the securing of re-
adjustment Of the rates adopted by
the head camp at Chicago were made
at the afternoon session of the in
surgent faction which has been in
session in Minneapolis for two days.
Incidental to the discussion of reso-
lutions Friday and especially that ask
ing the circulation of petition to call
a meeting prior to January !, 1918, to
re-adjust rates, the direct charge was
made that high officials of the order
were leagued with the old line insur-
ance. companies to disband the order.
They have conspired with the old
line insurance companies, said Joseph
Right of Rock Falls, ILL.,, in assailing
officers of the head camp, to wreck
this order y
The resolution adopted Friday, while
attacking the officials Of the head
camp, also declared in favor of an at
tempted meeting with these officials
Of the "insuggent' leaders to obtain
a REIMBURSEMENT Of the rates.
After protesting against rates adopt
ed at the Chicago convention and urg-
ing all members to stand by the order,
the resolutions declare the assembly 4
opposition to the adoption by any
state Of the notorious so-called mobile
BILL y aad urges Woodmen in every
legislative district to obtain pledges
from legislative candidates to fight the
measure.
A resolution also was adopted asking
that the next session of the legislature
in Illinois appoint a special committee
ito thoroughly investigate the Mod
ern Woodmen head office receipts and
disbursements prior to, during, and
since the 1908 head camp at Peoria
ILL.,, ane the 1911 head camp at
Buffalo
The Initiative, referendum, and re-
call also were adopted into the ssplat-
FORM of the assembly when the reso,
luton was endorsed urging revision
of the present constitution and bylaws
of the order, giving the m jority Of
the membership the governing power

Friday is generally considered an in
auspicous day for the beginning Of new
enterprises, but Uncle Sam has little
regard for popular superstitions in the
transaction OF his business and the
new postal savings bank will open for

that this is to be a government in

1st. 1t is made of the best materials which
carefully selected and ground by modern
machinery in pure Lnseed Oil.
End. vt has great density or hiding power and
works freely under the brush
3rd. Its composition is based upon scientific
methods and every gallon is uniform in tex
ture and quality.
4th. The 'coloring matter used to produce the
different shades is of the highest quality,
assuring richness in tone and permanence
in color.
5th. 1t will not chalk or powder; nor will it
peel or blister.
9Th 1t will require one gallon of pure Linseed
Oil to thin each gallon of Paint, thus
ducng 1he cost to a minimum.
7th. 1t gains by comparison.

Linseed Oil

What is said here regarding Linseed Oil is in
tended only for the Dealers, Painters and Con-
sumers using our products; and the reasons for
this Salk on the necessity of pure Oil are these:
No Paint will give the best results unless it is
thinned with pure Linseed Oil.
If impure Oil is used unsatisfactory results will
follow
1t is, therefore your protection well as for
the protection OF products that the quality
of the Linseed Oil be fully known.
There are some Oils on the market which are
such good limitations to make it practically
impossible to tell what they without chemical
analysis, and yet some Of these limitations are
about as worthless in Paint Benzne.
In order to afford protection on this point we
have made the necessary arrange and will
have analyzed, free of cost, a sample of any Oil
sent to us by regular trade.
The question of Iinseed Oil in Paint is too i'm
portant to be neglected.
See % it that you avoid bad Oil.

MAY GROW FLAX
IN GLADE PARK

Experiments in flax growing in the
Glade park will be made this year.
If the activities of Director Fred c.
Shaffer are effective.
Mr., Shaffer today received from
the development bureau of the Dem
yer Chamber of Commerce a bundle
of bulletins and other printed matter
which shows that fax will be an
ideal crop for Colorado.
In letter to Mr.. Shaffer, Chair
man A. ID. Wall of the bureau says:
I'VE find, for example, that, in the
so-called dry-farming regions, fax
will better resist drought, yield as
good crop and the product sells for
from two to three times as much as
other small grains. 1t is success
fully grown at an altitude of 5000
feet, and furnishes a profitable crop
for the high priced irrigated lands. %
Mr.. Shaffer proposes to interest
some of the enterprising ranchmen of
Glade park in the matter and make
some exhaustive experiments during
the coming year.

ADD $3.50 TO
BONUS FUND

At a meeting of the board of di-
rectors of the Grand Junction Fruit
Growers association this afternoon
that body decided to add $3.50 to
the fund for the bonus to be given
Zeigler brothers for their canning
factory.
Fred G. Shaffer and William Blu
thorn appeared before them and
made the request and the resolution
passed without dissenting vote. To
show the whole heartedness of the
action, James j. Bridges of Palisade
made the motion, expressing the will
ingness of the upper valley to aid
in the prosperity of the whole re-
gion.
The committee are heartily thank
ing the board for their generous ac-
tion today.
A. j. Harvey of Clifton, a member
of the board, was well acquainted
with Zeigler Bros. back in Muscatine.
Ia, and gave them a strong recon-
mendation to the other members of
the board.
This practically completes the bo-
nus and the site is almost certain
to be accepted by the Zeiglers when
they return Tuesday.
Secretary Shaffer said today that
without doubt the plant will be erect
ed within the next few months and
be prepared for the coming yield of
tomatoes, corn, etc.

HOT ELECTION
IS EXPECTED

3 From all The Sentinel can :
:, learn, our neighbor up the val &

s on April 2, one of the warmest !,
{, town elections in her history. :
8, 8 8 g 9, 8 $685.
A mayor and three trustees are
to be chosen, and the fact that boot
Logging has continued to thrive in
Palisade and that liquor is secured
there without any great trouble by
the thirsty is going to inject the pro-
hibition question into the campaign,
and bitter struggle is probable.
There was a pig meeting of bust
ness men in Palisade the other nigh
to discuss the coming election, and
committees were appointed.
At this meeting the following reso-
lutions were adopted:
I'VE pledge the moral support OF
this convention to aid in the main
tenance of law and order and the
strict enforcement of each and ev-
cry ordinance heretofore or hereafter
adopted by the Town of Palisade and
for the upbuilding and betterment OF
our town.
I'VE pledge ourselves to work in
conjunction with the Business Men s
Association and the citizens of Pail
sade and vicinity for the upbuilding
and advancement of the town of Pal
isade in every way.
I'VE pledge ourselves to use every
effort under the laws of the state
and county and under the ordinances
of the Town of Palisade to stamp out
the evil of Bookkeeping or other il
legal traffic of intoxicating liquors,
and gambling.
1--WE pledge ourselves further to
at all times strive to comply with
the wishes of the majority of the
voters of Palisade regarding this and
similar matters relative to the sale
Of liquor, gambling and other vices.
