L
coed in his very laudable desire to in
terest the young folks in church mat
tiers.
The Lyceum course committee has
placed the price of season tickets for
adults for the entire course of five
numbers at $500 and for the children
OF the grade schools at s1.25. This
is very cheap for the high class Of en-
tertainment offered and no one should
fail to purchase their season ticket at
once as single admissions for adults
will be so cents and for children in the
grades, 80 cents. Hence it will be
quite saving to buy your season tick
ct before the course starts and will be
an accommodation to the committee.
A. S. Rosaaen is the treasurer for the
course and anyone wishing tickets
may procure them from him or from
anyone of the committee. Be liberal
and help to make the Lyceum course
success this winter as, from the pres
emit outlook, this will be an extremely
dull season socially. Get your tickets
at once, as the first number, the Sheen
Concert Co., will appear the sth.
The first number of the Midland
Lyceum course for the season of 1917
has been announced for Monday, Oct.
9Th, and will be the Theresa Sheen
Concert company. This is an attrac-
ton well worth anyone's patronage
and the people who have gone behind
the venture so that Richland NAV
have the benefit of some really first
class entertainment this fall and win
ter are earnestly requesting everyone
to buy season tickets. 1t will be hard
to make up the requisite guarantee of
1926 at the best with so many of the
young men out of town and it will be
necessary for everyone in the district
to take hold and help the committee
SO that they will not be required to
go down in their pockets and dig up
the deficit. The course is well worth
attending and the price will be fixed
so low that no one need miss a num-
Der and surely the people of Richland
have enough desire for really good
amusement that they will turn out
en- masse and show that this commun-
ity is good for a real classy 1yceum
course every year.
The work of the domestic science
classes of the high School is proving
an eye opener to a great many of the
people of Richland. 1t was thought
for long time tina. after four-year
course in domestic science girl came
from high school fully equipped to pre-
pare dinner menu on which cream of
tomato soup and junket formed the
main dishes. Nowadays, however, the
girls are learning practical things and
needless to say by the end of COM
plete course, if the present good work
keeps on, the girls will be able to pre-
pare meal which would warm the
heart CT the hungricst harvest hand
that ever sat down to q table. At
present they are canning up a lot of
vegetables which will be used as the
basis for soups this winter and this
soup will be served free Of charge to
the children who come from the coun-
try and who have heretofore had to
eat cold lunch from dinner pail.
This is certainly most commendable
undertaking and every parent in the
district should do share in providing
supplies from which the classes may
prepare this soup stock.
The reception given by the people
of Richland on Friday evening in hon
or of the teachers in the public school
proved one Of the most enjoyable aft
fairs ever held in Richland. The big
gymnasium proved very acceptable
place for the gathering and large
and representative crowd of citizens
were in attendance. A delightful mu-
steal program was rendered, Miss Eva
Ign Yedica and Miss Evans being heard
in several vocal numbers, while the
band added much to the enjoyment by
number of appropriate selections.
Miss Mearns gave reading which
was heartily applauded while the adj
dress of welcome delivered by C. C.
Harding of the school board, was well
worth listening to. In few able re-
marks Messrs. Jones and Boyer, prin-
clpals of the grade and high school
buildings, respectively, responded to
the address of welcurne. After the
program the young ladies' of the do
mestic science class, undcr supervis-
icr of their instructor, Mrs. Leah Llid
wig, served punch, which was much
TO the liking of the crowd, judging
