two years ago at the primary election,
but was defeated by a small margin at
the election, owing to the divided
strength of our party.
Ny town has not been represented In
the Senate for forty years, and the West

encouraging letters received from active
workers In all sections of the county, 1t
seems that my candidacy meets with
their approval.
Two years ago I visited many Of the
towns in the county, and this year shall
make 1t point to meet as many Of the
voters az possible, to got acquainted and
exchange views.

1.-THE College Widower," the 1915 an
Dual show given by members of the
Wasecs club, Auburn, will receive its
premier production In the Norway Opera
House, Saturday evening, February ~.
speak of 1t at the club and yet this mems
cub has put on more than two shows.
The first production staged under the
auspices of the club was straight play.
1t was success and yet it did not seem
to catch on.
Like a certain health drink there was
a reason for this. A straight play limited
the cast, not great part of the clubs
big mem bership could participate. No
provision for musical numbers prevented
the most attractive club feature from
coming to the front-its musical talent.
So the boys began to debate and while
80 engaged lady named Fannie Tewkes-
bury Heth, who had gained fame in pro-
fessional opera and In the drama, re-
turned to her home In Auburn for va
cation. That was in the winter of 1915.
She did not get the vacation. She was
instead persuadedto accept the job of
stag ng real show for the Waseca club.
She did 1t. She coached 40 men to put
on q show thai they are still talking
about in Auburn. It was different
kind OF show than amateurs bad before
attempted and 1t established Mrs. Heth
for all time as an artist In the coaching
line.
Likewise 1t put the Waseca Club on
the map. 1t was then an assured fact that
there would be another show and that
Mrs. Heth's services would be retained
as director.
That brings US to 1915 and the show
which is about to be put on. The Col.
lege Widower is q two.act musical trav.
esty, originally played and made famous
bys Weber & Fields Co. 1t is a brilliant
take off, on George Ade's play, 1.-THE
College Widow" Anyone who has seen
that play can we'll imagine the possibili-
ties Of polite burlesque on 1t.
A close following OF the rehearsals
makes certain that Its public appear
ance will be the surprise of the season.
Every line In the show is bright and
clean and the musical numbers are full
of laugh and dash and catchiness.
1t would not do to parcel out all the
good things IN advance but to neglect to
en- phasize the fact that the female a.
we'll as the male roles In this show are
all taken by gentlemen would be keep
ing away something that is bound to be
looked forward to with interest. This
includes the chorus-the whole show to
q man.
Mind you, they are not burlssquine
these parts any more than the original
manuscript calls for. Last years chorus
and this years Ia much more adept
was as finely costumed and as vivacious
and sprightly in dances and songs AZ
most real girl chorusss are expected to
be. Every detail OF the show, as 1t will
be put on the following week In Auburn
will be carried out In Norway ON the
evening of Feb. H. Besides Mrs. Heth
The show is most fortunate in having
Chas. Abbott, pianist, to assist her in di-
rection of the orchestra in musical NUN.

Leap Year.

The custom which ordains that a
woman may propose marriage to man
In leap year dates back seven or eight
hundred years. An act of the Scottish
Parliament, passed about the year 1928,
made 1t crime punishable by fine, for
an unattached man to refuse to become
the life partner of woman who had
the courage to "spesk ye mon she
liked"l
The custom In q milder form is refer
red to 10 work published in 1905, en-
titled "Courtship, Love and Matrimony."
"Albeit 1t has now become q part OF
the common lave in regarde to social re.
lations of life that as often as every bis
sextile year doth return, the ladys have
the sole privilege during the time 1t con-
tInueth Of making love unto the men,

Basket Ball.

Norway High basket ball team met de-
feat at the hands of the strong Colebrook
Academy team at Colebrook, N. a., Fri
day evening. The Academy team is
claiming the championship of New
Hampshire, and the Norway boys
seemed to be agreed on the subject that
they ought to have it. Certainly they
have team Of large, heavy men, that are
fast and know the game thoroughly.
Norway realized after getting look at
the team, what they were up against,
but their size did not phase the local
boys and they sailed in and did the best
they could to keep the score down. The
final count was "a to IA against them.
Next Friday evening at the Opera
House Norway High will meet Rumford
High and hard game may be expected.
Rumford has one victory over Norway to
her credit in game played at Rumford

playing a much better game now and on
