The class of IT of the Denison high
school presented the three act come
dy, Green Stockings" before pack
ed house at the Germania theatre on
last Thursday evening and everyone
who attended pronounced it to be a
most entertaining and delightful eve
ming. The members OF the class who
participated in the play were directed
by Miss Hedwig Brodersen and Mr..
e. TOurtellotte, both members of the
high school faculty Owing to the
fact that one or two of the members
of the class who had roles dropped
out week or two before the play, it
was necessary for their places to be
filed by! other members of the class,
but so smoothly did the play go off
that no one suspected but what they
had been predicting for weeks.
Green Stockings deals with an old
custom whereby an elder sister is COM

sister, Celia Faraday who ac-
corGing to custom would have to
wear the green stockings at the cere

charming and played her part splen

elder sister played the difficult part

dcnco although she did manage to
get herself into some very serious
situations. Charles Silletto played.
the role of the dashing Robert Tarver
who was engaged to Phyllis No bet

this role and Charles handled it in an
excellent manner. George Brodersen
jplayed the part of the mysterious Col

attentions upon Celia. and caused her
much discomfort but in the end gain

well. One of the most difficult parts
was that of Mrs Chisholm Faraday

mo act of hers has she killed our PEG.
fple American citizens travelling on
merchant vessels were killed upon the
| highest authority of any country
said Mr.. Nelson. He stated that it
| had become known to the state au-
thority that Germany had about 700
gu" boats ready for the ruthless sub
marine campaign and when she was
prepared 70 rthis departure informed
the United States where our vessels
could sail and where they could not
sail and it was then that our presi-
dent broke off diplomatic relations
! which was followed by congress de-
claring war against Germany. Soon
afterward it was found that our
country was infested with spies
Judge Conner then addressed the
audience and stated that a number of
the good looking citizens of Dcnison
were seated on the platform and that
they would speak few words.
Mr.. Sears MeHenry was called up
on to express his views. Mr.. McHcn-
ry stated that it takes money to carry
on war. 1--WE that can't go to war
can feed and clothe those that do go
and furnish the bullets and powder"
he said. at takes money for food
and bullets" he said and this money
will be available if everyone buys lib
erty bonds. Mr.. McHenry told of the
new organization that had been per-
fectcd by the bankers of the county
and that every bank would have gov
eminent bonds for sale. Crawford
county will take it's share of these
government bonds which amounts to
a little over $4OO,OO0.00.
The chairman then introduced Mr..
Carl +. Kuehnle who delivered a
rOusing address. Mr.. Knehnle be-
licvcd that every man, woman and
child could buy one of these liberty
loan bonds and by thus doing so would
learn to save. Iowa at the present
prices she is receiving for her pro-
ducts is making each year two billions
OF dollars. Iowa alone could take up
the present bond issue of two billions
he said. The American dollar will
win this war and let us all lend
hand by subscribing for one or more
bonds.
Mr.. Geo Nacvc addressed the meet
ing and told of the money that lad
been raised in the other countries al
ready engaged in the war. The Unit
cd States whose wealth is equal to
that of England, France and Germany
should have no difficulty in doing its
bit said the speaker. These bonds
are fine investments and equal the
;,,t I,s,f hn ho, re for InnOS-
it's. Mr.. Naeve stated that they draw
31s per cent interest and are non tax
al BILE so the interest really amounts to
per cent. Every issue Of govern
ment bonds has gone above par and
sold for premium.

he was able to learn no one expressed

The registrars returned the cards to

A Holiday in Denison.
Here in Dcnison 307 registered IS
in the first ward 10 in the second and
1873 in the third. Few people realized
that Denison had over three hundred
men subject to military service.
Registration day was practically a
holiday in the city and the banks and
the day. The demonstration com

the National guards which was fol-
lowed by the ringing of church bells
and the blowing of whistles and what
a demonstration it was rivallng a
4th Of July celebration.
Through the efforts Of A. c. Green
a parade was planned which formed
on north Main street at $50 O'Clock
and marched several blocks through
the business section of the city. The
parade was without question the most
impressive that has ever been seen in
Denison for it brought home to the
hundreds of people who lined the
curb stone that the United States was
actually at war.
A. G. Green acted as marshall and
preceded the parade. The first float

The baccataureate service for the
Denison Normal College was held on
Sunday evening at the Presbyterian
church, the sermon being delivered
by the Rev. G.: e. Hamilton, of the
Baptist church of this city. union
service of the Methodist, Baptist and
Presbyterian churches was held for
the occasion and an audience which
filled the church listened to very
interesting sermon which all enjoyed.
The music for the occasion was furn-
ished by the Presbyterian choir and a
few selections by other singers. Mrs.
Hortense Davis Chauncey. former
graduate of the Denison Normal col
lese, sang in her usual charming man
ner. A trio composed of Emma BOett-
ger, Lillian North and Edna Raine
was very much appreciated by the
audience. Rev. Hamilton in his SER
mon pointed out the advantage of an
education and was able to demonstrate
that the capacity of a person for ac-
cCmplishment is greatly enhanced by
reason of an education. He was able
to prove that a mans value to the
community is greater where his edu-
cation includes both the mind and the
heart He gave some practical advise
of personal nature to the candidates
for graduation and predicted that the
influence of the school upon their lives
would be of lasting benefit. The ser
mon was we'll received and showed
the speaker had given profound
thought to his subject.
