The st. Olaf Choir of st. Olaf Col

The ST. Olaf Choir is an organiza
ton whose aim it is to cultivate a
taste for the best in a capella mu-
sic. 1t is composed of thirty women
and twenty men.
During the eleven years Of its eX-
istence the choir has made six con
cert tours with conspicuous success,
as is evidenced by the ardently ia
vorable press comments that have
been received. In the summer OF
1913 about forty concerts were Civ

mark, and so compelling was the
singing of the choir, that musical
critics Wed with each other in ac
claiming its praises.
Ever since its inception as a choir
f. Melius Christensen has been al
its head. So perfect is his control as
director that it has frequently been
said of him that he plays" with his
musicians as if they were an nstru
ment, producing, sometimes by the
mere movement of his fingers, the
most striking effects.
1t may also be stated that man!
of the selections rendered by tn
choir are original compositions o.
the director or are e-arrangement'

LETTER FROM CHINA.
Former DEBORAH Girl Writes From
Picking, China.

We received the following letter
and copy of the Peking Gazette on
Monday from Mrs. Georgia N. Buck
ner, who will be remembered here as
Miss Georgia Nelson, daughter of
Mrs. l.. f. Nelson, who now resides
in Missoula, Mont. Mr.. Buckner is
a railroad contractor and builder and
b experimenting the construction
of road in China. Mrs. Buckner
writes:
Dear Editor:
Will you please see that Public
Opinion is sent to me each week. l
am sending you today the PICKING
Gazette" our daily paper printed in
English, so that you can see what
news we get We are quite colony
of Americans here now with the
Siems-C Corey r. r. and Canal Co.
They are building two new lines of
railroad and improving the Grand
Canal. Mr.. Buckner has charge OF
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. line,
which is about to be constructed. 1t
sounds like an engine, doesn't it?
We live in a Chinese house, each
room being separate and all facing a
large court yard or garden, which in
summer is lovely, with flowers and
fountains. l like this country very
much and hope the railroad work
will keep us here long time. Our
children have already acquired a
good bit of the Chinese language,
and although it sounds like an awful
tumble to me, they tell us it is not at
all difficult to learn.
Please attend to the matter of
mailing your paper to me, and
thank you very much for doing so.
Sincerely,
GEORGIA n. BUCKNER,

Aid Yourselves.

The opening of spring should
bring an effort by every individual
to provide against high prices in the
future. Gardens in the city will re-
lieve household expenses this spring
and summer as we'll as next winter.
But it is not enough for the city
dweller to grow as much food as
possible. The farmer should secure
food yield from every foot OF
ground possible for cultivation
Food grown upon land that usually
is idle on the farm would add great
ly to the supply and increase to an
astonishing extent the wealth pro-
duced in Iowa, South Dakota and
Nebraska.-Sioux City Tribune.

BOY OF THE DAYS GONE BY.

1t seems to me when the spring
comes back l can always see
them So
The boy with the bee sting over his
eye and the stone bruise on his
toe;
The boy with a broken arm in a
splint, and the boy with the
swollen knee,
And the boy that | still find bubbling
up way down in the heart of
me:
The boy of the days gone by
hooray,
For the vision that greets my eyes
When the locust blooms in the
month of May
And the springtime decks the
skies!
Where the dusty road winds far and
sweet to the crick at the mea-
dows' end;
Where the blackberries bloom in
the misty heat and the whole
world seems your friend;
Where the willows can DER the
muddy stream, and the cat
birds sQuawk o'erhead-
Oh, there they go in a solid row,
that troop of the tousled head:
The boys of the day gone by-ah,
me,
What a wonderful host of light,
With their cheeks that shone in a
pristine glee,
And their hearts that were clean
and white!
The nicknames ring throughout the
air of May as they did So long
agone,
And they sound so queer to the
startled ear in the breath of
the springtime dawn;
And a vision fair in this hour of
care is that troop come back to
me
The boy with the stone bruise on his
foot and the boy with the swoll-
en- knee:
The boys of the days gone by
dear shades,
| greet you, one andlall--
The fat boy clad in bingham shirt,
And the lean boy, straight and
tall!

Married Saturday Morning.

Last Saturday morning at ten
thirty o'clock at the home of the
brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Philip
Pfster, on DEBORAH Ave, occurred
the marriage of their daughter, Miss
Esther to Mr.. Glen Mcmillan. The
ceremony was performed by Rev.
.Glesne, of the United Lutheran
church. The bride is one of De-
corah's popular and very highly re-
spected young women; for the past
two years she has been one of the ac-
commodating and obliging operators
at the Standard Telephone Co. Off
ces in this city, and has made a host
OF friends. The husband of her
choice is high school teacher and
his home was formerly in Waukon,
but he is now located at Garrison,
Iowa, where he holds position as
teacher in the school. He is a fine
young man of worth and character,
and the many friends of the bride
here join us in extending congratula-
tions and best wishes. Mr. and Mrs.
Mcmillan departed OH the afternoon
Rock Island for their future home
at Garrison, taking with them the
wishes of many for a long and hap
ry married life.

Education Good But Costly.

The high cost of living is indeed a
heavy burden. And yet it has done
great things for some people. 1t has
strengthened many. 1t has taught
people to save who never saved be-
fore, but always prided themselves
upon living within their income and
keeping out of debt. They are learn,
ing lessons now that will last them
through life. They are learning real
thrift, and they are beginning to
save. Thus few things are ever
quite so bad as they are painted. And
there are few conditions or circum
stances out of which we cannot get
valuable lessons. Huntington Haw
keye.

Beyond Her Ability.

The matron of a certain hospital
in France, for some reason of her
own thought that the 'Tommies'
under her care should not visit a
neighboring village. Passes were
allowed, but they were few and far
between. One day a Tommy APP
piled for a pass, and the matron
asked him why he wanted to go to
the village.
Il want to get something from a
shop there" he said.
"Well as l am going to the village
myself, | may as well get it for you,
was her reply.
We'll, bring me a hair cut and a
shave." replied the man.

Proner Time for Planting.

There are many opinions regard
ing the comparative values OF fall
and spring planting of fruit trees.
There are many advocates of each
practice and each has substantial
reasons for his opinion.
When all reasons are taken into
consideration, it results in the dis
covery that in sections where the
winters are open and mild, fall
planting is by far more satisfactory
than spring planting. But in local.
ties where the winters are cold ana
dry. spring is the more satisfactory
time for setting out.

Tho essence of tho utility Of the
cargo submarine as against attacks
from German C-boats lies In lis equal
immunit y--indred in AN appreCiahly
greater immunity: for. with tho seas
cleared Of German surface vessels. The
German submarines must risk sinking
at the guns OF all enemy shipping
while the undcrsea cargo boats Of the
United States and its allies have only
tho danger from enemy submarines
10 encounter. The enormously high
percentage of safety inherent in
cargo probably little be-
low lao per cent for all that can he
aunched-makes it Impossible To
overlook the feasibility of their pro-
duclion. however dauntinc may be
the difficulties in the way and how
ever delayed may be their araVIDlllly
as IL factor in tho contest.
\ rough estimate of the total output
Of lnnnag" Of all yards in the United
States as they are al present equipped
and organized. during the period of
one year. would be 10000 tons dead
weight carrying capacity for steel sur
face vessels. At any rate of deStruc'

apparent that the end of the worlds

were flung into the ever widening

The condition OF the industry at
