PICTURES FOR The
PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Not every pupil can be an artist,
but everyone may be lover of art.
Pictures are as essential to a good
school as buildings and books. The
public schools have done nothing
to decorate or beautify their walls
for years. They plan to do some
thing next week. At that time
there will be on exhibition, in Room
of the Public School building, a
large collection of beautiful pic
lures. To raise funds with which
TO purchase pictures for the school,
tickets of admission to the exhibit
will be sold at 10c each. The
children of the schools will sell the
tickets, or they may be obtained at
the school house. To the two
rooms whose pupils sell the largest
number of tickets, pictures will be
given as prizes. The pictures will
be on exhibition each day from $3.50
a. m. to IL M, and from to $50 p.
M, and on such evenings as will
be announced later. A liberal
patronage of the exhibition will be
of exceeding benefit to the school.
Buy several tickets.

The Hudson Star observer OF
last week gave that city's rest room
fine write-up from records com
piled by Miss Mae North, who is in
charge. But the scribe who pen
ned the article added to Miss
North's report a bit of howery elo-
quence which included a remark to
the effect that Hudson's rest room
was the only one in st. Croix, Pierce
or Polk counties, and thereby drew
forth just indignation of the River
Falls Ladies Improvement League,
which society has installed a fine
rest room in the city hall here.
Nevertheless t h e Improvement
League does not hold that slight
against the Hudson people and ex-
tends to the ladies of that commun-
ity cordial invitation to visit the
rooms whenever they are in River
Falls.

SCHOOL PLAY MAKES BIG HIT

The Opera House was packed
from front to back last Friday eve-
ming for the high school musical en-
tertainment, and there was not a
single one in the audience who did
not find great enjoyment in every
minute of the performance, from
start to finish.
The first part of the program was
devoted to selections by the orches-
ira, girls glee club and boys chorus
and short comic sketch in panto-
mine entitled, Miss Norma L. En-
tertains," all of which was very
well received.
The second half of the program
consisted of a musical comedy,
The Lamentable Tragedy of Julius
Caesar" Edward Rock played the
leading role of Julius Caesar"
and won quite a reputation as
singer and actor. He was ably
assisted by Jefferson Smith, as
"Brutus;" Roderick Chinook, as
MARX Antony" Douglas Smith, as
"Cassius;" Herbert Loucks, as
"Casca;" Robert WATSON, as Tire
bonius;" Harvey Mclean, as "Oc-
tavius Caesar" Paul Bonus, as
Marcus Sepidus;" Leo Lowe, as
Cato" (Mr. Lowe also took the
part of the "Sooth Sayer"); Thor
Severson, as Pindarius;" Beth
Allen, as "Calphurnia;" and Margaret
Williams, as "Portia." Master Billy
Smich kept the plot running smooth
ly-by his energetic fulfllment of the
Office of page"
Great credit for the fine success
of the performance is due to the
young people who took part, and to
the teachers who drilled them. Miss
| Holbrook, of the science depart
ment, deserves especial mention in
this connection. Miss Holbrook
directed the rehearsals and trained
the students in the music for the
play, and also trained the boys in
their chorus work Miss Johnson.
of the History department. directed
the girls in their rehearsals, and
Miss Theleen, of the English de-
partment, also assisted in the work.
Principal j. w. T. Ames arranged
the staging of the performance.

Mr.. Grimm went on to explain
the work of the different committees
proposed, and then read the min

mobile dealers of this city for the
excellent banquet served. c. E..
Shepard supervised the prepar-
alton and serving of the banquet,
all of which was performed in

INTERNATIONAL "BEN-HUR"
To Be Staged In ST. Paul And Minneapolis

Spectacular magni6cence, dram
attic splendor and religious ecstacy
are the most notable comcomitants
of Klaw and changers Interna-
tional production of Ben Hur" +,
which will be the offering at the
Metropolitan Theatre, St. Paul, the
week of February "a, and the
Metropolitan Theatre, Minneapolis,
the week of March 8. During the
thirteen years which have passed
since the original presentation of
this noble drama-itS owners have
not only kept it up to its original
grandeur, but have elaborated and
developed the possibilities of the
production each season, until today
it stands unrivaled in beauty and
splendor of establishment, unsur-
passed in dramatic significance and
power. It was the last word" Of
the stage craft of the nineteenth
century and into the new age it
brought a bigness and perfection
which will remain the standard for
decades to come.
Dealing with the early life of
Jesus, the most important period in
history, Ben Hur' shows the
world at it's most wonderful point
in magnifcence and wealth, for
Rome ruled the world and Caesar
Augustus was Emperor of the
highest realm the earth had
known. Into this time of display
and pomp came the lowly Nazarene,
the Christos for whom the nation
had longed, and it is this personal
ity of Jesus that, permeating the
fabric of the Wallace Young drama,
makes it a sermon as we'll as a
drama of tremendous power and
significance. The reverence with
indicated has made Ben Hur"
a religious pageant, while the
sweep of the story of Ben-Hur and
Messiah, Esther and Iras, carries
the audiences off their feet, wherein
Ben-H ur conquers and degrades
his enemy.
Nothing more realistic than this
scene in the arena of the circus of
Antioch with Ben-Hur and Messiah
contesting for supremacy has ever
been imagined by dramatist or
executed by producer. The race
enihralls because on its outcome
depends life, love, honor and riches
to the victor, and when Ben Hur
receives the victor's crown of wild
olive, audiences applaud with the
greatest enthusiasm. adv.

A few weeks ago our worthy con-

prospect rather convincingly in a
write-up of the new bridge the
Omaha company is putting in to
replace the old draw at the juno
ton. The Observer says:
In view of the big expenditures
being made and the permanent
character of the work it is rather

UPPER WISCONSIN SUPREME
IN ALFALFA
Takes Worlds Championship at National Comics,

The Wisconsin managers at the
National Corn Exposition now being
held at Columbia, South Carolina,
have sent message to the Wiscon-
sin Advancement Association to the
effect that alfalfa grown in upper
Wisconsin has taken the world S
championship award in COMPETE
tion with all of the states and
countries.
A recent census of over 500 Wis
consin farms developed the fact that
the average production for 1912 was
4 tons per acre which is practi-
cally double the average of the lead
ing alfalfa producing states.
1t is now established that Wis
consin produces more alfalfa
to the acre, higher quality of hay
and greater value per acre than
that of any of the leading alfalfa
producing states and countries.
The extension of alfalfa pro-
duction in Wisconsin will add mil
lions upon millions to the agri-
cultural income of the state.
The recent rapid extension of al
falfa in this state is due mainly to
the efforts of the College of Agri-
culture, the Wisconsin Experiment
tai Association, the State Board of
immigration and the Wisconsin
Advancement Association, the lat
ter being the means feF aissemin-
