WARDEN

T. N. Hartung is again commits
stoned as game warden and the law
breakers are getting all that is COM
ing to them. Warden Hartung was in
Dunn county recently and arrested
several parties. Andrew Burge, north
of Dunn Center, pleaded guilty before
Justice Boyd, to shooting chickens
out of season and paid fine and costs
amounting to $50. Nichols Schiller,
southwest of Oakdale, made a similar
plea to a like charge and paid $24.80.
John Siverts was arrested on a
charge of killing beaver. He waived
examination and the case will go to
district court. It is understood that
this Dunn county man considers the
law unconstitutional. John Keller,
north of Gladstone, was arrested for
hunting chickens out of season but as
the complaining witness had left the
country, the case was dropped.

SENIOR A PLAY

The Senior class play, "The Varsity
Coach" was given at the opera house
Wednesday evening and is pronounced
by all who attended as one of the best
class plays ever staged in Dickinson.
From start to finish each of the young
performers acted with a grace and
ease that was surprising and vastly
pleasing. Each portrayed his special
part in such a manner as to make the
audience feel as though they were, in
reality, witnessing a bit of real col
lege life.
During act II, the High School Glee
Club sang a couple of numbers that
brought forth hearty APPLAUSE. Dur
ing the same act twelve girls from the
sixth grade gave two folk dances that
were very pretty and interesting.
The third act opened with a drill,
formed by all of the graduating class
and a number of others.
Those who took parts in the play
itself were: Harold Rase, Harry
Johnson, Sidney Morrison, Glen Hol-
lenbeck, Paul Erb, Grace Mcclure,
Laverne Roquette, Beth Johnson,
Dorothy Ayers, Marion Smith and
Lily Sherowitz, all being candidates
for graduation except Morrison, Erb
and Hollenbeck. The others of the
class who took part in the drill were:
Mercedes Brown, Harold Lillibridge,
Stasia McKeever, Grace Rapp and
Viola Rapp. Rose Bettendorf and
Ethel Cummings of the Senior class
were absent from the city.
Great credit is due Miss Hillesheim,
who drilled the play, and to Miss
Dumke for preparing the folk dances,
the drill and the musical numbers.
