One Of the best entertainments that

were three one-act comedies and ii was

high chool should hold so many stars.
Tbs entertainment was not so very well
advertised and therefore the entire audi
torium was not filled. However, the
show will advertise itself now and a
large attendance is expected tomorrow
evening. when it will be given at the

HOSPITALS
CAN SHIP ALCOHOL INTO STATE
OPINION OF THE ATTOR-
NEY GENERAL.

Pierre. June 23.-The attorney
general in reply to a query from the
state sheriff holds that hospitals viii
have the right to ship in from out
side of the state, such alcoholic
products as they require in their
work in such institutions. Under
the law druggists are compelled to
secure their supplies from wholesale
houses within the state, but such
houses can sell only TO retail drug
gists, and by a strict construction of
the law, the only way a hospital
could get a supply would be on a
physicians prescription. 1t is held
that a strict construction Of the law
in this would be a violation Of the
federal statutes, and that a liberal
construction will allow hospitals, un-
der regulations, to ship in such alec
holic liquors as they may require,
making their purchases outside of
the state.
