Nine. VerHaar Gives
Artistic Recital of
Contralto Numbers

Mrs. Edna Swanson VerHaar, of
Chicago, who is a charming young
contralto well known in that city and
elsewhere throughout the country, as
she has been filling public concert en-
gagementS with much success for two
years past, was presented Thursday
evening to an audience of good size at
the First Methodist church by the Da-
kota Conservatory of Music, under the
auspices of the Methodist Brother
hood.
The singer is of Swedish parentage,
and Is OF an especially attractive and
pleasing appearance and personality,
which added much to the enjoyment in
her well-selected program. Her num-
bers were given with an artistic finish
that betokened careful voice training,
and the well-rounded, rich tones Of
her voice were especially noticeable in
the Mendelssohn number, Consolation,
and the Dvorak composition, Lord,
Thou Art Ny Refuge. OF more joyful
strain was / Will Sing New Songs of
GIadness, also by Dvorak, and for
these three numbers Mrs. F. M. Cleve-
land, of this city, played pipe organ
accompaniments in her usual artistic
manner. Miss Bertha Hagen, of the
Dakota conservatory faculty, played
the piano accomplishments for the re-
mainder of the program, interpreting
in very pleasing manner.
Another Of the beautiful sacred
numbers given by Nine. VerHaar was
HenschePs Morning Hymn, and she
opened her program with two difficult
Italian numbers, Secchi's Lungi Dial
Caro- Bene, and Donizettfs o, Milo
Fernando, from the opera LaFavorita,
which latter seemed to be the favorite
Of the two, with the audience.

keep LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-H You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young Is to
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no need
of having a sallow complexion-dark
rings under your eyes-pimples-a bill
ious look in your face-dul eyes with
no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver. -
DIR. Edwards, well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en-
joyed by everyone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.

Tablets by their olive color. 10c and

given, especially Titania, Peterson

this group were Rosens Doft, prince
Gustav, and Min Alskades, (Abt).
Magical June, by Hilton-Turvey,
was easily the favoHte of her closing
group, and was sung with much spirit.
Dawn in the Desert. by Ross, was a
strong descriptive number, and dig
nifty of emotion characterized Sacra-
ment, by MacDermid. Others Of this
group were a Cradle Song. and Mac
Fayden's Springs Singing.
Nine. VerHaar responded to two
insistent encores, giving as one re-
Spouse Tenting on the Old Camp
Ground, in Difference to the Civil war
veterans who with their wives were
guests of the conservatory, and Lula
by Ships as the other. The effect Of
the Tenting Tonight song was a trifie
marred by the inadequate music that
had to be used, which resulted in
slight confusion, as the singer had not
brought her own arrangement Of the
song, but it was one much appreciat-
ed, especially by the old soldiers.
Nine. VerHaar is great favorite
with Valley City music lovers. several
of whom were in this city last even

Illinois Club of North Dakota
Membership Passes Hundred Mark

Rev. o. E. McCracken sustained the
musical reputation of the association
by singing two solos that were loudly
encored, with his daughter, Miss Iva
McCracken. as accompanist. The entire
assembly then Joined in singing the
state song, preparation for the same
having evidently been made during the
past year. as the tune was carried this
time without a break, and so pleased
with themselves were the singers that
they attempted and put through sue
cessfully another appropriate chorus
selection.
There were the various amusing
features to be expected, such as J. B.
Eaton receiving honorable mention as
being the best dressed gentleman pres
ent, and the failure to find any but
good-looking ladies in the party, while
Secretary Stearns interwove in his en-
ments that drew hearty laughs from
his audience. The report included the
facts that all bills had been paid, with
a balance left in the treasury, and that
no Illinoisans had served Jail sentences
since the last meeting, which of course
evoked prolonged applause.
Omcers Elected.
The business session was held while
the company still sat at the banquet
tables, and one of it's most important
features was the election of officers All
new officers were chosen, as follows:
President, J: P. Finch; vice president.
MRS. II. II. 1uTHeTJ SeCFSLdry-LTSaBurSrs

Fine Banquet Served.
The banquet hour was $3.50 o'clock,
and the serving of the elaborate i've
course menu was done in a manner sat
isfactory to all participating in the
happy affair.
The great problem for the associa-
ton now is to hpd a place large
enough in which to meet, but 1t is hop
ed that this may be satisfactorily
solved by this time next year. One of
the important arrangements made at
the meeting last evening was for the
association to hold two meetings a
year, these to be a June picnic and the
annual banquet in January. The exact
date of the June picnic cannot be an
nounced at this time.

Elaborate Plans for
Elks' SNOWFALL PARTY

Much social interest centers in the
SNOWFALL party. which the Fargo Blks
will give this evening at their lodge
rooms, as the fourth in a series of
contemporaries. SNOWFALL parties have
been given previously by the Elks, and
have always been especially popular
with the participants in the Elk social
affairs. A grand march is slated for
$3.50 o'clock, and the decorations will be
particularly effective. They include an
immense artificial SNOWFALL, thirteen
feet in diameter, which will be sus-
pended from the center of the ceiling
in the main hall. Radiating from this
SNOWFALL are streamers of white, and
hidden lights will contribute to the
beauty of the setting for the party.
The ladies planning to attend are
asked to dress in white if possible, at
least gowns Of light colors. and the
men in white trousers and dark coats.

keep those who will not work outside
