Twenty-Five young people were present.

Probably no attraction booked this
season at the opera house can be- re-
garded as being more important in MAJ
ter of theatrical offerings than "The
Master Mind which is announced for
next Monday, Nov. 3. New York, where
the piece was presented for the greater
part of an entire season at the Harris
theatre, was enthusiastic in praise OF
this gripping play of politics and in
trigue. "The Master Mind" as the name
indicates, is the dominating character,
operating in an environment of crime,
and matching his viii and his wits
against the district attorney. Though
a criminal he is man of brilliant at
tainments, who, because of wrongs in
dicted by social and civic conditions, be-
comes an enemy to society. His knowl-
edge of chemistry, physics, law and
many other subjects qualities him to
plan and execute-~deep-laid plots which
make him the terror of the police and
the underworld.-Adv
New branches of the quarryworkers
association have been established i'll
Pompton Lake. N. j., Sandy, Utah, and
Tishomingo, Okla, according to an an
nouneement by Sec. +. w. Suitor at
the international headquarters yester-
day. At Pompton Lake, quarries long
abandoned are now being worked and
an excellent grade of soft granite of a
reddish pink hue has been developed.
1t is used for monumental and interior
purposes. Members of Wasatch branch
at Sandy, Utah, are quarrying build
ing granite to be used in the construc-
ton of the new state capitol in Salt
Lake City. A hourishing branch has ,
been organized there and enough stone
is needed for the state building to keep
the quarry going two years. Likewise
in Tishomingo, new quarry is being :
developed for stone to be used in the
new capitol structure at Guthrie. Char
tiers for all three branches have been
granted during the past two weeks.
