Enriching Farm Life

Believing that too little excitement is bad for
people too much and that the wide, STILL lonely farm
and prairie lands would profit by farm theateTS, in
Dakota a movement towards little farm theaters is
being talked of and started The theaters will give farm
folk the little excitement they need and crave.
Farm spirits, farm imagination will be encouraged;
for thing the Agricultural college purposes to give
farm pageant that shall make something of a ritual
and glorfcatiOn of the first setting of the pillow in
the land in the spring and the spirit of the growing
vegetables and fruits is to be shown in dances and
professionals
National songs and dances and handicrafts of the
Norwegans Danes and Swedes of the state will be
encouraged to bloom Amercanized, in this country for
the benefit and happiness of all 1t is good idea.
People to need the theater and other entertain
ment to learn what the of the world is enjoying and
suffering and be able to make the most of their
lives.
When farm folk tend more and more to become like
cods unmoved untroublee, uninspred depressed they
go insane and every city in the land every person,
is off While city folk so often need the rest
and quiet the slow procession Of days and nights of
the country the country folk surely need of
the excitement, of the attrition, some of the
crOwding and jostling of other lives.

MANY THINK TROOP
IS NATIONAL GUARD
Hesitate to Join Cavalry on
That Account = No En-
tangling Alliances.

one reason for the lack OF recruits
and enthusiasm in Mlshawaka's
volunteer, company Of cavalry, ac-
cording to Capt. Hubert Nifong. is
the misund erstanding that mas
spread abroad that the troop is a
militia or national guard company.
He has been questioned concerning
II many times.
The company is not affiliated with
any military organization and is be-
ing operated independent of state
troops. Capt. Nifong did apply TO
Adjt Gen. Bridges or notify him that
volunteer company was being
formed when the affair was first
started and there had been large
tournOuts at every meeting This
does not bind the local men TO serv-
ice with the troops, however.
Preparedness for trouble and
greater efficiency when the need for
soldiers comes is the sole object Of
the troop. If enough men can be
secured an application for recogni-
ton might again be made, but at
present the purpose of the organizers
is TO get together a company which
will be of real service if ever called
upon.
No oaths or formalities binding
the men TO service in the army are
used every man being free TO come
and go, and up 10 the present time
it seems that the inclination has
been 70 go.
Friday night the men will meet at
the News-Times office at . o'clock
for another drill. Everyone who
can is urged 10 attend.
