Important Meeting
Next Thursday

A meeting that should be attended
by every taxpayer In Lehi will be
held In the Grammcr School building
next Thursday evening. Feb 25th.
II will be for the purpose of deter
mining whether the school district
should buy the home Of 8. J. Taylor
and thus complete its ownership Of
the entire block on which stands the
Primary and Grammar grades build
ings. The trustees have been nego-
tiating for years with Mr.. Taylor for
the property, and the two interested
parties have come to an understand
ing that Is mutually agreeable. This
agreement will be explained at the
meeting.
Certainly II would improve the
looks OF the block for school purposes
If the school district owned the Tay-
lor corner. The barn and other In
cumbrances, excepting the house
would be removed. Some suggest
that the residence could be made into
an ideal public library or be used as
home for the janitor Of the build
ings. AS the legislature will prob
ably pass the consolidation bill

taxpayers to decide at the meeting

that II has every prospect of being

That Storm

The storm last week is one of the
most boneGcont In years The farm
ors were becoming afraid that the
water supply for next season would
be less than normal, and some of
them were holding OF from signing
beet contracts. The snow fall is the

water for irrigation purposes will be

The official government rain puage

that all the winter moisture will so

Reason for Building
More Sugar Factories

In view of Manager Cutler OF the
Utah Idaho Sugar company, having
declared a year ago that the taking
the tariff OIL sugar would result In
the closing of sugar factories, the re-
cent articles announcing the building
OF two now factories IN Utah is caus-
ing considerable comment
The sugar officials In explanation
say that the plant which will be built
In Layton, Davis county, is not now
plant at all. but an old one that has
been in operation at Raymond, Cana
da, for years. II has never made any
money ia Canada and it's owners hope
by bringing II to Utah to put II on
paying basis. George +. Kirkham,
formerly OF Lehi, has been superin
tondent OF the Canada factory, and
will probably hold the same position
at Layton
Regarding the plant to be erected
at Spanish Fork. II Is pointed ont
that this Is the old plant that has
been lying idle at Nampa. Idaho. for
several years. The machinery Is moi,
only detenorating every year OF Its
idlcness, but II Is also n big expense
to the company each year whether II
Is running or idle. The taking out OF
the strawberry water Is bringing un-
der cultivation big additional area
of beet land. and the company thinks
that by moving the plant to Spanish
Fork, It will possibly be able to pay
expenses and keep from running be-
hind
Besides this, as Mr.. Heber Austin
points out, the company does not anti
cipate that the present administration
will remain In power many more
years, but that at least "A part of the
protection given to sugar In the past
will be retained or restored by new
administration.

Sophocles' Tragedy Given
Interesting Performance
to Large Audience.
AUGUSTUS DUNCAN
AS THEBAN KING
Poor Translation Considerably
Mars Otherwise Admirable
Presentation.
BY GRENyILLE VERNON.

Sophocles is not a dramatist likely
to catch the fancy OF the average
Broadway manager looking for a box
office success. yet to these very mana
gers there might have been lesson
had they been present last night at the
Century Opera House. The house was
crowded from pit to dome, and the play
was "Gdipus Rex" The drama oil
Sophocles was given unde the auspices
of Miss Isadora Duncan. and it is not
too much TO state that in its presenta-
ton Miss Duncan mas placed US under
an artistic debt heavier tnan any we
have yet had 10 repay. Nurtured as
Miss Duncan has been by the ideals OF
Greek art, il is not surprising that she
sought to lay her tribute a. the feet
of the most perfect of the Greek
tragedians, and give to us OF the
Twentieth Century a breath Of the Hell
lenic spirit.
II is more surprising that her offer
ing was received by an audience IN
city far indeed removed from converse
with that spirit, and received win
gratitude, and, best Of all. with un-
affected pleasure. After all, the great
dramas Of the world are in their es-
sential spirit never outmoded, at least
70 those who will hear them simply
and with minds unclouded by the
nreiudices of modern theatrical teen
nioue. The rock upon which "Gdipus
is founded. the rock Of the supremacy
az tho moral law and of mans herolc
/ futility. is unshakable and for all
/ times. Footlights and the proscenium
arch have not changed the spirit Oh
man. ~,
The performance at the Century did
not altogether follow the traditions OF
the Greek original. as did Mr.. Chris
tian's presentation in German last sea
son at the Metropolitan Opera House

ticipated in By Miss Duncan and her
pupils; yet these dancers held them
selves we'll within the limits of what
might have been those which obtained
in ancient Athens. In their austerlty
of movement as in their grace OF line
there was nothing Of the modern world
The wisdom of opening the play with
HYMN to Apollo was more open TO ques-
ton. There is no sucn hymn IN the
original drama, Gdipus himself
launching at once into an Invocation 10
the chorus. However, the defence
might be made that New York, not be-
ing situated close to the Acropalis. and
its public as little acquainted either
with the myths or the manner OF an
Gent Greece. il was necessary 10 de-
velop a mood for a proper acceptation
Of the drama. This the opening chorus
admirably effected.
If the version Of the drama used last
