CON.
CERT. TRIO COMING

The Potter-DePew Concert Trio is
distinctive because 1t consists OF
three artists, each equally skilled.
Betty Potter, reader and cellist, has
been before the lyceum public for
four years. She has created spe-
cial field for her art In impersona-
tions of boys, choosing types and
characters familiar and interesting
to all. She has played the cello for
nine years.
Opal Potter Is a Conservatory
graduate in both piano and drama
tic art, has appeared before the
public professionally for years, and
takes an important place In the Or
chestra and dramatic parts of the
program. Dewitt DePew is one Of
the best known violinists in the
central west. He is above the class
known as lyceum violinists, having
in his recital work won marked rec
ognition from the critics and musi-
cal journals. Outside of the larg-
est cities one is seldom privileged to
hear violinist so fine as is Mr.. De-
Pew.
An evening with the Potter-De-
Pew Concert Trio, consists Of or
chestra numbers, musical readings,
violin solos, Sketches, vocal solos.
dramatic and costumed readings,
pionologues, and cello solos. The
programs are prepared by Louis O..
Runner Of Chicago. who has. given
"us many successful organizations
in recent years. He considers the
Potter-DePew Concert Trio one Of
the best of these.
This is the second number on the
Bowbells lyceum course, and is cen
sidered to be one, of the best. 1t
takes place at the Royal Theatre on
Thursday, Jan. g. commencing at
eight O'Clock in the evening. Tick
cts are now on sale at the Donovan
Drug Co.

SOLDIER .DO|NCS

Donnybrook, N. D., Dec. 27.-
--"This Is about the toughest corner
of the front that we have been on
yet, and each day has its toll of
casualties, but If we are suffering,
= then God help Fritz, because he
must be living in veritable hell"
Alex Walker, former resident
of this village, has written to his
sister, Miss Lillian Walker, giving
as near as possible description Of
the drive on Lens In which he par
ticipated. He states that some Of
the battalions have incurred heavy
losses since then but that Fritz has
suffered a hundred per cent more.
Big Guns Never Silent
''At present we are having one
terrible time of it," writes Walker.
''The banging of the big guns is
never silent. z Every night Fritz
bombs us behind. heslines, from his
aeroplanes. Life is Just one con-
tinual nightmare all the time. The
drive on Lens was certainly hot
affair. We had cable trench to
dig but Fritz caught US In his bar
rage. It was awful-big shells
and overhead shrapnel. I got q
slight scratch ON the hand and that
is all. Behind me men were knock
ed down like bowling pins.
"God knows how I ever came
through that. drive, but I did, and
as soon as was again in billets
Immediately gave thanks to God for
bringing. me safely through. On
that front we had deep dug-outs in
which to get away frtm the big
shells, but on this front all we have
lis bivouacs, but we are still in the
game and Fritz knows now whom
he is up against when the Canadians
start. So.
Canadians Do Fighting
1T seems to me the Canadians
are pushed On to every hard point
there is to take. We have the rep
utation of always gaining our pb-
jectives and once taken VIC hold
them. Well, sister, often think
of you and mother, and pray God
will zee me ba k safely, but If my
time to go has come, am ready to
go. I never plan ahead any more,
because what is the use? You new
er can tell-not even for minute
whether you will be alive the
next minute or not. The boys,
however, are all cheerful despite
the many hardships they must go
througl, but we are all longing for
the day when peace will be declar.
ed. ~ ,s,, :..,,,.. -.
II think the Germans have sufs
fered more the last few days on this
front than they have all the rest of
the year. We are driving ahead
every day, slowly to be: sure, be-
cause of the end and the hard pro-
position of moving up, the guns,
but we are still driving the enemy
back. He is fighting stubbornly,
desperately and every battle Is con-
tested In the strongest possible way,
and I hope the big ones on both
sides will soon see the awful havoc
that is being wrought, and come to
some kind of understanding. 1
