Wednesday evening and on the fol-
lowing evening. st. Andrews hall is
situated on the Como Harriet car line
at the corner of Churchill and Hatch.
A glance at the list of actors reveals
the fact that several of them have
won applause on the amateur stage,
and in this is promise of presenta-
ton worthy of themselves and the &C.
casion. And, as If this were not en-
ticement enough, there will appear
Jack McGuckin, the Harry Lauder of
America.
Jack McGuckin once heard and seen
must be seen and heard again and
again. Can anything be droller than
this 1rishman who CHANGED to be
born in Scotland? He is, then, a du-
pick Celt-all that is happy and hu-
morous and droll and rollicking, with
a wee drap of the canny Scot to spice
it all.
The proceeds of this entertainment
will go to help Father Printon in the
good work he is accomplishing for his
people. With their generous assist
ance, he has purchased a beautiful
property for church and residence and
school. 1t stands on rising ground
overlooking Como park and its beau
tiful lake. The plot lies in such a
way that by placing the tower of the
church facing down Chatsworth street,
there will be a beautiful and unob-
structed view over the lake and into
the country. The plans of the church
show building in English Gothic, 1O4
feet long, 45 feet wide with transept
Of 20 feet and a seating capacity of
ESQ., The tower will rise $50 feet The
building will cost between $4,000 and
100000. The architect, Mr.. Edward
Donoghue, who has won for himself
we'll deserved reputation because of
his success in planning beautiful
churches and admirable school build
ings, has provided for basement that
will be used as high and we'll lighted
hall laid out in such a manner that the
stage will not be under the altar, but
under the vestibule. Besides an audi.
forum, the basement will contain Ii
brary and reading rooms.
The trimmings of the church will be
Indiana limestone faced with brick
The interior finish will be in keeping
with the general design. There will
be ornamented plastering and pig
mented windows. 1t will, indeed, be
a beautiful church, and complete in
every respect when some one, on the
impulse of piety, hangs in the tower a
silver-toned tongue to call, generation
after generation, the hearts of the
faithful to prayer and alteration.
The parish residence faces trian
gular park. 1t is commodious and
comfortable house tastefully furnished
and recently purchased for Father
Printon by his devoted congregation
This is the house that the Pioneer
Press built and gave as prize in a
voting contest.
1t is seen, then, that the st. Patrick's
Day entertainment has here noblel
purpose than mere amusement.

TRACK WORK BEGINS.

Track work has been started, but on
a very small scale. The weather has
not permitted much work so far but Mr..
Kierzek expects to see a good bunch
of track enthusiasts out from now on.
There is not much known material for
the speed events but several members
have been out trying their rusty muscle
in the weight events. There is con-
siderable material for the weight events
and in time it is expected that some
undiscovered material for the sprints
and hurdles will become known. At the
track meets held last year at Mankato
and Mortified the New Ulm High
School brought back some honors, and
there is no reason why we can not
muster out little army of track enthu-
siasts to bring home some first and
second places this year.

LISTEN, GERALDINE!

Oh, what's the use; we always knew
it was a pretty hopeless sort of lob.
but our worthy contemporary, "Life'',
seems to have analysed the case from
Atlanta to Omaha. Here it is; what
do you think of it?
Cone OF the reasons for the inconspic-
uous success of our school system is
that few children learn how to learn.
There is no adequate provision for
teaching the art Of intelligent study.
OF course we can't blame the teachers
because they don't know themselves.
Under our benefcent plan of paying
school teachers as if they were worth
less than milliners, they tend to become
race cf more or less efficient cogs.
= Their work is divided into. two parts,
setting conventional tasks for children

A most delightful evening was spent
at the High School last Friday when the

ton was held in the Manual Training

with Lavender and White streamers with

Everyone was required to bring a
baby picture of himself. These created
much excitement. There were many
games and guessing contests and prizes
were awarded to the winners in each
case. Then call for supper was heard
and everyone made for the diningroom,
which was located in the Mechanical
Drawing room. 1t also was decorated
with Lavender and White streamers and
flowers. These decorations together
with the penants already on the wall
made the room very attractive. A two
