no need to extol the resources of North
Dakota or the wonderful stride made
in city and county building, the money
for which was harvested from the
northern hard wheat fields of the Red

Mrs. A. J. Stephens contributed a

Mrs. Stephens graciously responded to
an encore. She was in splendid voice
and her charming selections were
greatly appreciated.
Special enjoyment was afforded the
knights and their many friends with
exquisite renditions by the "Y" quar-

The selections from the repertoire Of
the quartet were, Sailors Dream,

The singers were recalled vigorously
after the first two numbers.
A service of refreshments followed
the beautifully rendered music of the
evening and during the discussion of
the delicious ice cream, cake and the
most fragrant coffee, the "Y' quartet
