Shows Hobo Comedians
In Laugh Producing Act

Bob Clark and Paul Mccullough
are the two big laugh producers in
Jean Bedini's "Puss Puss," which
started weeks engagement yester-
day at the Gayety before two laugh
ter-convulsed audiences. They have a
line of original hobo comedy that is
delicious and not overdone. .....
Fiji Delaur has the real Parisienne
manner and voice that is a pleasure
to hear in the several songs she
sings. Helen Lorayne, Babe Wright
and May Meyers add attraction also
to the leading feminine roles and the
chorus is exceptionally good looking
and well-gowfed.
A speciality in juggling by the Keiso
Brothers is whirlwind of action.
The show throughout is full of pep
and fun and Jean Bedini is on the lob
all the time to keep it going.

Wet. U. PROGRAM
INSPIRES AUDIENCE
Patriotic Temperance Program Was
Held Sunday in Memory of
Frances E. Willard.

The Patriotic Temperance Program
given under the auspices of the w. c.
Il. L. at the high school auditorium on
Sunday evening was listened to by
large, and appreciatiye audience. Mrs.
w. n. Powell had charge of the pro-
gram which opened with spirited pa
triotic singing by the audience led by
Miss Cummings. The invocation was
offered by Rev. L. W. BarthOlow A
short historical sketch of Frances E.
Willard and the w. G. Z. u was given
by Mrs. W. n. Powell. She called at
tention to the fact that the day (Feb.
17th) was the twentieth anniversary of
the death Of Frances E. Willard, the
great temperance reformer, and that it
has become the custom Of the w. c. T..
U. to commemorate said anniversary
by some sort of temperance rally. Mrs.
Powell also pointed out some of the
salient features of Miss Wizards work
as president of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union and as the most be-
loved leader in the temperance cause.
Mrs. Levins, of Crookston, gave a
vivid and interesting account Of her
| trip to the National Convention of the
w. G: T.. u held at Washington, D. C.
last summer and which she attended as
a delegate. The city Of Washington re-
ceived the convention most cordially
and extended to the members every
possible courtesy. That the temperance
movement is no longer meeting with
derision but is attracting the serious
attention and consideration Of the lead
ing STATESMEN of the nation, was mani
tested on every hand: Many of the
sessions were attended by prominent
Congressman, e. S. Senators and other
and other historical points of interest
was told about in pleasing manner
Winston Mitchell rendered recita-
| ton which was we'll received.
An interesting feature was the PRO
cession of the States in which sc
girls dressed in white and seven boys
took part.
| Judge A. Grindeland was down on
the program for a speech Oh the Pro
! hibition Amendment to be submitted
/ to- thas3oters of the state at the election
held next fall. He read the amendment
and also called attention to the pro
vision that in order to carry it must
receive majority of the voters voting
at such election. Failure to record
ones vote on the amendment. is prac'
tically the same as a vote against it

WARREN CITY BAND
ORGANIZED TUESDAY

Many of the nearby towns and cities
have found it necessary to discontinue
the city bands on account of so many
musicians having entered the military
service. Not so with Warren. While
many of the boys have enlisted in the
service there still remains enough
musical talent in the city to insure a
good strong band for Warren during
the coming season.
At a meeting held at the city hall on
Tuesday evening the Organization of
the Warren City Band for the coming
season was perfected, and the follow
ing officers were elected tAxel :Nord-
strom, president; Archie Hatfield, vice
president; L. L. Steen, secretary; and
Chas. p. Grinder, treasurer The first
rehearsal will be held at the city hall
next Tuesday evening. AS soon as
weather permits the weekly evening
concerts in the Great Northern park,
which have been so popular in former
years. will be commenced.
The business Of the band is to be con-
Quoted on a cooperative plan. All re-
ceipts will be divided among the players
on an attendance basis. This will
create more interest on the part of each
individual member and more regular
attendance at both concerts and rehear-
sails will be assured.
The members Of the band render a
valued service to the community and
although many Of them will be forced
to neglect their private business inter
ests, they have offered to furnish music
at any public gathering or patriotic
meeting free of charge.

MIX UP IN DATE FOR
NONPARTISAN MEETING

Last week Mr.. homeland, organizer
for the Nonpartisan League. inserted an
advertisement in the Sheaf and also in
the Register. for Nonpartisan meet
ing to be held at Warren on Feb. 10Th.
After most of our edition was printed
and mailed. we received a telephone
message from Mr.. homeland stating
that the date OF the meeting was
changed to Tuesday, Feb 26th and
when we told him our papers were al
ready printed, he ordered that the
change be made in the ad for this week.
Unfortunately in making the change
in date for the papers not printed when
we received the telephone call, our
printer in changing 10 to 26 made %
instead, which everybody could see was
a mistake.)
On Tuesday this week large num-
Der of farmers came to town to attend
the meeting, some having come as far
as 10 to 20 miles, and congregated in
the court room where the meeting was
to take place, but no speaker appeared
This was a great disappointment and
some of those present were inclined to
blame the newspapers, but every fair
minded man can readily see that they
are not at fault. Others limited that
some who are opposed to the League
had caused the mix up in dates. But
this is not the case. To the credit of
Warren it may be said that no one here
has tried to place any obstacles in the
way Of the Nonpartisan meeting or any
| other meeting of farmers, nor will
there be, as long as these meetings are
conducted in an orderly manner, free
from any disloyal or seditious agita-
ton. The right of farmers to assemble
and organize in any manner they see fit
for the advancement of then own in
terests, will not be interfered with.
| When it comes down to real brass tacks.
there are no more loyal and patriotic
citizens in our country than the farm
ers. They not only feed this nation.
and other war stricken nations but
they also offer their sons on the altar
of their country.
The NonpartiSan meeting is this
week advertised for Tuesday. Feb Goth.
