than a performer, wrote three note

PLAN TO
ORGANIZE
COMPANY
Bismarck Professional and
Business Men are Back of
the Project.

Bismarck, N. D., March 29.--An in
dependent rife company, composed Of
Bismarck professional and business
men who have had previous military
training, and which will constitute
for the present reserve force not di-
rectly subject to the national guard,
but which may apply later to be mus
tered in as distinct company, is a
probability for the near future.
The appearance of IS Bismarck
bankers in the Fourth of July pre-
paredness parade last summer or
iginated the idea, which has gained
new momentum with recent develop
ments. A company with a strength
OF at least 100, including principally
those whose professional or business
interests will not permit them to give
up the time necessary to membership
in the guard, but who are thoroughly
in favor OF the preparedness move
ment, and who wish to be in position
to do their share should necessity
arise, can be organized without diff
fculty.
Practically every man interested has
seen service in the national guard or
with the volunteers in the Philippines
or the West Indies. They are men in
the prime OF life, between 80 and
40 years old, men who have a great
deal at stake, and who may be expect
ed to form splendid military reserve.
The United States war department
has been communicated with relative
to the possibility OF obtaining arms
and uniforms for such a contingent,
and favorable reply is expected. If
the plan is approved, it will be placed
in operation with little delay, and
Bismarck will. soon have an excellent
picked force which will form a splen-
did complement to Co. A, which
stands today among the finest military
organizations the northwest has pro-
duced,

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
. MAKE HIT IN PLAY
spIendid Program Given by Freshmen
Musical Features Are Exeep-
tionalIy Good.

. Hillsboro, n. D.. March 29.-"Cne of
the best programs ever given in Hills
horo," was the verdict of the large
audience that attended the entertain
Tiaent given by the high school fresh
men here. Two one plays, music by
The ten-piece high school orchestra. a
Uniformed quartet in military
drill, a girls vocal Sextet. readings,
solos, an original pantomime, and to
crown it all, seven melodious mascu-
Ines in musical repertoire made the
evenings performance very enjoyable
to all present.
The orchestra, which. under the d.
rection of Miss Doris Sarles. is COM
ing to be a prominent factor in Hills
boro, was well received by the audi
eace. The military drill, under the di-
rection of Miss Murphy, the girls ath-
Ietic instructor, was on the order o.
folk dancing, something new to a
Hillsboro audience. Their appreciation
Or it was shown when they were re-
called to present their performance
over again. and even then the audience
was not satisfied. The pantomime rep
resented a modern girls Sunday school
class Of pin-sticking, hair-pulling,
gum chewing lassies, who would not
be governed by their black-skirted. be-
specialized, pious, old pedagogue.
The first play was a dramatization
OF Irvings Rip Van Wrinkle. The plot
as presented began with Rip coming
home from his favorite place of amuse-
ment with his feet uncomfortable and
his head in a whirl from drinking too
much Dutch water. He swears off
drinking while his darling and most
beloved vito" has a firm grasp on his
tender wig, but he breaks his promise
as soon as Mrs. Van Wrinkle leaves
the room. She sees him and compels
him, with the aid Of a broom, to re-
sort to the outside of the house, "the
only part that really belongs to a
henpecked husband"
The second play was entitled The
Minister'S Wife. The main characters
represented were two of the high
school teachers and the wife (who
had to be invented) of one of the
bachelor ministers of this city. The
setting is at girls boarding school.
The boys of a neighboring military
academy are supposed to be at drill.
