Unexpectedly Meets Friend
Whom He Hadn't Seen
For Is Years.

A letter received from Hamilton
Mason dramatic tenor, who is widely
known in musical circles OF this city
and state, tells Interestingly about ms
finding it necessary to chang ms
name, and also relates an incident
which led to the renewal of an old
acouaintanceship. Mr.. Mason is play
inE rag time" under the auspices of
the Y. M. C. A. var service and, Tor
the time being has shelved the
"Celeste Aida" which ne sang so we'll
on several occasions in this city.
Following is Mr.. Nason's letter,
sent from Somewhere in America
more specifically from a point near
New York:
I wonder if I am presuming too
much when I think that you and my
other friends would like to hear from
me through The Grand Forks Herald?
You. know that I am the only North
Dakota man in this the 9th Y. M. G.. a..
conference and I am doing my best
to hold down the honor of the state
Of my adoption. 1t would be presump-
ton for me to try to tell anything
about New York city even if l had the
desire, which l nave not. For they
keen us as busy as a humble bee with
two singers from the time we drag
ourselves out of bed at $3.50 in the
morning to the time-usually about
$50 in the evening-when we are
through for the day. After a little
smoke and a hurried word to the dear
wife, we are more than ready for bed.
1 would like to tell you of the des-
perate time we are having with the
'.parlez vous'' business but my French
is inadequate and the English h a 1
would like to use is more becoming to
the lumberjack than to a Y. M. c. A.
secretary. But I can tell you something
Of the bully good men that I have
met and of the remarkable fellowship
that is ours. My two roommates are
from Mississippi, one a business man,
the other a minister. One of my good
friends is from Iowa, another from
Vermont, still another from Kentucky
