sands of banker visitors here Section groups held their first meetings of the convention, discussed problems incl dental to various phases of banking, heard committee reports and elected new officers. Plans for continuance of the thrift campaign throughout the United States were made by the savings bank section, and at an in- formal meeting of country bankers resolutions were adopted declaring against legislation permitting domes- tic bank branches and asking revision of the reserve law providing for free exchange in the clearance of checks.
 The bankers were told by Comptrol- Ter Williams, that they could fulfill their duty to the world in the great financial reconstruction following the European war only if they put the soul of the people in the use and ap- plication of the dollars"
 We have outgrown responsibility to our country and generation" said MT. Williams. We have become respon sible to the whole world because we have become the supreme world pow CT, especially in that vital department reaching to the root and core of all things which we here directly repre- sent-the financial. It is for you, gentlemen controlling the powerful | banking interests of this supreme country. to determine whether these dollars of ours shall prey upon ou" country and the world with teeth and claws, or shall have souls put into | them to upbuild to help to heal the | horrible sears of war, to lift the stricken to strength and hope"
 The comptroller spoke before the National Banker section of the as- sociation. He reviewed the progress of banking under the federal reserve law, sketched the commanding posi- tion the United States has taken in world finance, declared that for the first time America had become dis tinctly creditor nation. urged the in politics and warned them against the danger of too great concentration of wealth at the expense of small en- terprises.
 "Is it not hard to grasp the thought that this country of ours, which IT 1902 had already reached a plnnacle among the nations. has since that year doubled the volume of its business II virtually all the great cities of tho land?" asked he. of we should divide the new wealth created annually among all the men. women and chil- dren engaged at work, they Woulf have not far from a thousand dollars per year each

The entire Greco entente situa- tion has changed over night, and it is reported that the entry of Greece into the war has suddenly become a mere question of days on the terms King Constantine indicated to the Associ- ated Press August 31, namely, a guar antee of the integrity of Greece and a loan sufficient to equip the army and cover the cost of remo5ilzation

left nothing undone to make the oc-
Casion a pleasant one and a ten-piece
orchestra carried the dancers on their
merry way. over one hundred couples
were present, many of whom were
from various points in the state.
The armory was beautifully decorat-
ed from top to bottom. Smilax, palms.

working out IN attractive scheme of
decorations. An electric flasher with
the figures 1917 was placed over the

STATE BOOSTERS
TO MEET IN HURON
MOST PROMINENT MEN OF STATE
WILL GATHER AT HURON
MARCH 7 AND 8
TO BRING MORE SETTLERS TO STATE
Notable Speakers From Other States
Will be Prescnt-Pians to be Com
pleted for Campaign

Plans are nearing completion for
one of the most important booster
meetings ever held in South Dakota.
The occasion will be known as the
Boosters Convention and will be held
at Huron March 18th and Sth.
The purpose of the convention is to
boost South Dakota and her resources
in general and has no reference to
Huron in particular.
Charles McCaffreo, commissioner of
the immigration department, under
whose general supervision the meet
ings are to be held, states that he
expects fully one thousand people
present in Huron on these days. This
meeting is the outgrowth of a set of
resolutions passed by the Bankers AS
ISOLATION, in which they expressed the
hope and desire that the various or
CARNATIONS of the state of South Da-
kota should organize to bring more set
tiers and home seekers into the state.
Hon. j. w. Campbell of Huron, is
Chairman of the local committee and
states that the two days program will
include some Of the best and most in
~fluential citizens of South Dakota and
also some notable speakers from out
of the state. The program in it's en-
tirety will be announced in a few days.
The purpose of this meeting being to
boost South Dakota, it is therefore the
duty of every loyal citizen to plan on
being present and make the meeting
a success.

GAVE N CONCERT

The popular concert at the college
auditorium Sunday afternoon was
given by the State College Ladi $
Lyric Quartet, consisting of Misses
Laura and Helen Ferguson, Miss LEILA
Linn and Miss Mabel Croft, assisted by
Miss Cecile Welch pianist. The inter
est of the public in this kind of music
was manifested in the unusually large
attendance as well as in the approcia-
ton which was shown.
The work Of the quartet was most
artistic, and they succeeded in obtain
ing beautiful effects in voice blending
not often attained by the very best Of
qLartets. Perhaps these effects were
best displayed in the first group of two
short numbers and in the final number
Twilight Dreams" by Gillet. The ar
rangement of the Strauss Blue Dan
ube WaltZes" also proved very pOpu-
lar.
Miss Linn, contraltO, gave a very
dramatic rendition of the familiar aria
from Samson ct Dalila" with some
very pleasing shadings and tone
quality.
The trio selected from Nevin's "A
Day in Venice" by the Misses Fergu-
son and Miss Croft was a very strik-
ing number while the unusual arrange
ment of Bonds "a Perfect Day" sung
by Misses Linn and Croft proved one
of the most delightful bits of the pro-
gram.
Miss Welch has always been exceed
ingly successful in her interpretations
of the writings of Chopin, and in the
G Minor Nocturne she found oppor-
tunity to display her clean technic and
beautiful quality of tone. Her accom-
paniments were ideal.
There are few quartets which can
approach the Ladies' Lyric in its ar
tistic attachments as well as in its I'M
usually well balanced voices.

him thoroughly bullied, an amicable
settlement was made. But ! never eX-
pect again to have the pleasure of the
visit of four policemen and thousands
of citizens on a mission involving forty
cents. There were three of us in the
melee, and We were very much disap-
pointed that the policemen would not
arrest us and put us in Jail, thereby
affording us an opportunity to boast
ever afterwards, as do those who are
suspected of being spies, of the priva-
tons suffered by the loss of liberty in
a foreign land.
The New Years celebration in Cop
enhagen was unique. and even noisier
than New York, Chicago and San
Francisco. But it was a bad night for
Americans to be abroad.
We have found plenty of peace senti-
ment in Denmark, but owing to its
close proximity to the war zone, public
speech is very closely regulated, and
the newspapers are very careful in
their utterances.

WEARS GOLD MEDAL FROM KING

The Grand opera house was filed to
capacity last Thursday evening to hear
the famous st. Olaf Concert Band.
Many people came from other sections
and all who heard the program were
many times repaid for their time and
efforts.
During the concert few knew that the
pleasing tenor soloist, Christen Tn.
Vol, was wearing a gold medal from
King Haakon VII Of Norway. which
was given him as a mark of apprecia.
ton for singing before the King and
Queen when the band visited Norway
Sometime ago. The medal was receiv.
ed Thursday while Mr.. VOL was in
Brookings.
A reception was given the members
of the band at the Lutheran church, to
which the college band was also invit
ed. Hospitable Brookings opened hel
doors to the st. Olaf boys. and they
were entertained at the homes of var
ious Brookings citizens.

The news that the steamship Great
Northern is to discontinue running to
the islands is bad. and the fact that
400 or so people viii not be landed at
Hilo every three weeks is to be de-
plored in every way. 1t really did
seem that q start was being made to
advertise the islands properly In the
Eastern and Middle West states of
the Union and that, gradually. many
thousands Of tourists would be entieed
to visit Hawaii. A fine start had been
made on the proposition and every
body was hoping that, before long,
there would be q constant stream of
tourists coming to Hilo and Honolulu.
The effect of the spending capacity
Of those few thousands who did come
during the time the Great Northern
was on the run was good to see, and 1t
is easily estimated that the taking off
of the big steamer will result IN Sc
rious loss to the automobile garages
and other business houses of the city.
The proposition Of reviying the ba-
mana trade Of the islands and that Of
inducing small planters on the Island
of Hawaii to take up the industry, has
been knocked on the head by the with
