section reports good record from
his ranch. He has 1-z-acres In

in very graceful and accomplished
manner.) Mr.. Sperry gave as an en-
core that old Welsh love song "All
Through the Night" Miss Ruby
Smith gave two laughable numbers
which were received with hearty and
appreciative laughter. Mrs. Frank
Sperry closed the program by singing
a very pathetic little ditty entitled,
THE Blind Boy" She reached the
high notes in, what she thought, a
very creditable manner. but in spite
of the pathos and sadness of the song
the audience howled with unseemly
mirth. 1t is very discouraging to be
SO misunderstood. In the near flu
ture it is planned to give an old
fashioned spelling bee, so veteran
spoilers had better get out their old
books and brush UP.
Last week l wrote an article in
regard to the death of young Annie
Schmidt and I have been told that
was understood to say that "Annie's
parents and friends cared nothing
for her and let her die without doing
anything for her." |, OF course,
meant nothing of the sort. simply
meant to Infer that IL Annie had been
taken to the hospital, and given jtbe
untiring and intelligent care that
typhoid fever requires, she might be
well today. l know that Annie's par
ents gave her all the care they know
how to give and that it was not suf-
ficient was their misfortune and not
their fault. One more time | have
been misunderstood, or misquoted.
and l am very sorry, but 1t seems
there is no help for it.

During the past few days hundreds
of children have looked with delight
