Famous Violinist Will be Here.

The second number of the Lyon
County High School Entertainment
Course will be given at Rink Hall on
the evening of January 20. Axel Skov-
gard, the noted Danish violinist, who
has appeared before the most import
ant thrones of Europe. and has been
received with applause throughout the
United States. is the most important
member of the oarty. He is accom-
panied by Miss Ethel Wright, a So
prano singer of vast range and clear
ness of tone, and Miss Alice Nc
Chung. pianist of exceptional talent.
Mr.. Jones of the High School, had the
pleasure of hearing this trio at Wash
ington State College last year and can
vouch for the rare quality of the enter
tainment
The violin used by Mr.. Skovgaard is
a Stradivarius. made over 200 years
ago. in Cremona, Italy. by Antonius
Stradivarius, the greatest of all violin
makers. This violin was bought at a
cost of Sl30,000 and it has no price
today because money will not buy it
Its tone has been purified by use and
cannot be matched by another.
Mr.. Skovgaard carries an insurance
of $4,000 upon his left hand which is
used in lingering the violin, and yet, if
one stops to consider the power of
Interpretation living within that hand il
is not out OF reason.
The entertainment of this trio is the
best that can be obtained and will be
the subject of conversation long after
the performance and an everlasting
source of happy recollection to those
having the good fortune OF hearing it
Season tickets for the remaining
four numbers on the entertainments
course are $1.o0 each Do not fail to

reason, whatever it may be, it is
a fact that the local newspaper IS
seldom given credit for the great
part it bears in the promotion OF
the prosperity of country in
which the newspaper is located.
The local newspaper is seldom, if
ever given credit for protecting
public interests. And yet the
newspaper is indispensable to the
community.
Not alone is the newspaper in
dispensable in educating and shap-
ing public sentiment, but the fact
that the newspaper owner is call
ed upon. to protect the country in
which he lives and to promote
prosperity and to boost is seldom
brought home" to not always
appreciative public.
No semi-public enterprise, no
celebration, no public movement
for the material or moral upbuild-
ing of a locality-nothing that is
dependent on public interest to
support-has promise OF success
unless the newspaper can be en-
listed, at its own expense.
The merchant is paid for his
4th OF July bunting, but the
newspaper gladly gives over its
columns to the promotion OF the

expense.
