THE ROYAL GWENT
WELSH SINGERS

That the Royal event Welsh Sing
ers, which will appear at the Elks
hall on Sunday afternoon, January
Path, brings the goods with it when it
tours a country, and that it capti-
Yates the heart of the people, needs
no other certificate than the fact that
the choir on it's third tour is receiv-
ing a warmer reception than it ever
received on it's previous tours. The
men of Wales have found out that
Americans and Canadians are truly a
musical people, and as Mr.. Geo. F.
Davies, the Conductor puts it, the
proof of a really musical nature is
the stunning of musical trash, how
ever cheap it may be, and the patro-
nizing Of musical art for arts sake,
even though the prize be p%rohibitive.
Musical America has gone crazy-to
use a vulgar term-over the singing
of the men from Wales, not because
of any high price they had to pay to
hear them, but because the singing of
the choir reached the ideal of a gen
timely musical people. Hence the
third visit of the chorus and the in
variable warm reception it has met
with so far at every appearance on
it's present itinerary w our great
continent. One of the effects of the
previous tours is that the choir, hav-
ing become more accustomed to the
American people, sings on this oc-
casion better, if possible, than it
ever did before.

THE FEBRUARY WOMAN'S
HOME COMPANION

One of the striking contributions to
the February Woman's Home Com
panion is an article by the Rev.
Charles Stelzle entitled Making the
Church Do Real Work." in which he
considers the question of the high
cost of salvation. He does not, Of
course, consider that the money cost
per convert which a church pays is
inefficiency of that church, but he
vastly superior to others in the serv-
ice which they perform to a commun-
ity. In any event, his article is
highly entertaining and thought pro-
voking and will undoubtedly arouse
considerable discussion.
In the same issue Ida NJ. Tarbell
writes on "The Talkative Woman"
and Anne Morgan, daughter Of the
late j. Pierpont Morgan, writes an
other talk to "The American Girl"
Pasquale Amato, the celebrated barry
tone, tells GLOW to Listen to OPERA"
and Rollin Lynde Hartt describes his
experiences in Swearing Off" from
the use of tobacco. Another interest
ing contribution entitled "The Woman
Who is Owned by the Town" is a de-
scription of the busy and highly re-
sponsible lives of ministers wives.
Fiction is contributed by Kathleen
Norris, Grace S. Richmond, Juliet
Wilbor Tompkins, Frederick M.
Smith. Mary Taft, Mabel Dill, and
Evelyn Gill Klahr. The regular
Fashion Cooking,> Young Peoples
Housekeeping, and Entertainment de-
partments complete an unusually par
tical and spirited number-close to
the currents of life and the needs Of,
ordinary people.

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS

The high school library has two
fine gifts, one the gift of the class Of
1913, which consists of The Century
Dictionary and Encyclopedia in
twelve volumes and a neat book Ease
to hold them. The other gift is ten
volumes of Science History from
John Orchard. These two gifts are a
great addition and benefit to the sec
ton Of reference books. The students
and teachers are very grateful for
these generous donations.
Miss Helen Carlton, librarian of the
Public Library, delivered an interest
ing talk before the high school stud
ents on Wednesday morning on "The
Library and It's Use" She first told
what the library was, its ideal and
the cooperation of the Librarians.
The Dewey Decimal classification was
then taken up and thoroughly illus
trated. In a most efficient way she
took up the library catalogue, defin-
ing it, making known the different
kinds and how the title Of the books,
name of the author, etc., r arranged
in it. Much time was spent in re-
gard to the classification and arrange
ment of the books and how they were
grouped so that the finding Of works
was comparatively easy for the pub
lie. Miss Cartoons talk will make
the library much more interesting to
it's school patrons since they have
gained more definite knowledge of it's
arrangement.

BANK DEAL DIDN'T GO
AS HAD BEEN REPORTED

There was a change made on Mon
day of last week in the First National
bank matter of Marmarth resulting
in the sale being called off and Mr..
Phelan will continue to retain his in
terests here.
AS stated at the time of our an
nouncement of the proposed sale,
Paul Hack will succeed w. w. Scott
as cashier. C. P. Allison will remain
as vice president and F. DeKleinhans
as one Of the directors, while Edw.
Buell. Of Bowman has accepted the po-
sition of managing vice president.
These new arrangements will tend
to place the First National bank on
even a more solid financial footing
than in the past if such a thing is
possible; as Dugald Stewart, who is
cashier of the First National at Bow
man, has recently fallen heir to
100000 and will take a dictatorship
in the First National at the place.

DEFEATED
BY DICKINSON HIGH

The local High School quint not
only met the Glendive aggregation,
but easily defeated them on their
home floor Friday evening, the score
being 81 to II. The attendance was
small, the Glendive supports being
weak in backing up their team. The
game was played on a small floor and
little chance was offered for any fast
team work. All the boys were able
to drop in a shot now and then except
Rase, who played a star game as
back guard, not allowing his man to
get a basket.
The boys report excellent treatment
at the hands Of their opponents and
the officiating by Referee Mack was
all that they could wish.
The following shows the lineup of
the two teams, the scores made and
