trouble with ~tonight's program is
that IL all m in a lump.
To you, tired business man, clerk
or ste%nographer, or busy housewife,
these entertainments are open.
There Is something doing in this
town tonight, but If you would rath-

down TO Sioux City where there is a
possibility of a riot before the night
is over. But if you appreciate home

enough going on at once to make
the Ringing circus look like a Punch
and Judy show.
You have no excuse to stay home.

stirring contests on in different quar-
tiers of the city. you have a variety
and quality unexcelled in any town
in South Dakota. You can make the
Normal basket ball game and the
second show; the high school debate
and basket ball game; the debate and
the second show, or both basket ball
games. In other words, you have the
best chance of the winter TO spend
your money in two places the same
evening and get variety in each in
stance. incidentally, the Daily Lead

Leroy Township five tonight at the
Madison bowling alleys. Should the

meeting dress and turn out TO watch
