The Opera House-was crowded
with the citizens on Wednesday
night, the attraction being the mu-
steal and entertainment given by
the young students of Mrs. Goe-
bells class. 1t was grand sue
cess and the encores with which
each boy and girl were greeted
showed the high appreciation in
which their efforts and various
numbers We're received. 1t would
be unjust to single out any one
OF the performers where all did so
well and where all were entitled
to the highest need Of praise. The
program was published in full in
the last issue of this paper and
was carried out without any break
and to the edification of the large
house. Mrs. Goebel has taken
great interest in this musical and
she is deserving of the thanks not
only of the parents Of her pupils
for their efficiency and profici-
ency, but also of all who had the
pleasure of being present. 1t was
a musical treat. Miss Margaruite
Goebel her daughter. was present
and only added additional laurels
to her wonderful art in the musi-
cal line. She will climb the lad

ency until she reaches the top step

steps to give effect at our mines to this
suggestion.
"If we agreed, as is further proposed.
to reemploy all striking miners who have
not been found guilty OF violation OF the

difficulties We have not now enough
work available to provide new places for
all the men who left our employ. We are
also a large iron and steel manufactures.
and many OF our employees alternate be-
tween the steel works and the mdnes.
owing to the depressed state of the
steel industry we feel that we should offer
work available at our mines to such OF
our iron and steel workers as might be
thrown out OF employment because Of
reduced production. Indeed we are now
faced with the possibility that through
having to turtail our steel production.
with the consequent effect upon coal and
coke operations, work will not be avail
able for all the miners even now employed
You will understand too that a great
deal OF III feeling has been engendered
between some Of the men who quit and
those who have remained at or returned
to work. We are very sure you would not
urge that we reinstate former employees
who. although not actually found guilty
Of violating the laws. have 70 our knowl-
edge gwen overt indications of hostility
