LYRIC TO REOPEN WITH
MATINEE SHOW TODAY

Athletics long ago became as i'm
portant in the development of am
as in men. There is not a girls COL
lege in the country that does not in
cfude in IT'S curriculum an athletic
course, and many m have ba-
caFfas< c~ha,rapiens. To-day il isn't at all
nnusuai for the t1vfs sexss TO eonfuete
for athletic supremacy. and in many
cases the fair sex has won. With this
condition il is not At all surprising
that a few women should attain a
state of physical supremacy.
This is exactly what has been done
by the three Bennett sisters. These
girls took up athletics in school and
they became so efficient that they
adopted the sport as a means of liveli-
hood. They are in vaudeville. giving
a fine exhibition OF init and mat ma
neuvers," They are expert boxers.
wreEtlers, bag-punchers. fencers and
gymnasts. For stage they
give an exceedingly swift bout and a
wrestling match that is most vigorous.
One of the three girls claims to be
the champion oma wrestler of the
world" and has an open challenge to
all who dispute his claim. Their act
is not only exceedingly interesting, hut
II showF n om may become

cred a manly sport without in the

these three girls have been exercising

In fact, they are three remarkable
specimens of humanity.
The Bennett sisters are among the
features of the bill with which the
Lyric will reopen its doors at 3 o'clock

Give Children Toys That Teach.

Toys which develop the Imagination
are better than intricate mechanical
toys and deliberately dressed dolls.
Next to a bali. the very best ptaything
is q set OF blocks. which Is capable Of
being transformed into anything de-
sired, from q train of cars to a pigeon
house. Give a boy of FIVE a hammer,
some nails and a few pieces OF wood
and see what he can make-the re
suits are often surprising. Children
love to create, and the toy which they
have made themselves will give "a more
lasting pleasure than the usual elabor-

WELCOME GUESTS.

Fargo is honored in being chosen for the
first convention Of the united Norwegian
Lutheran churches, which opened this
morning.
The Norwegian Lutheran church draws
its membership very largely from Ameri-
cans of Norwegian birth. Such are doubly
welcome in Fargo at this time. OF all the
Americans of foreign birth none have
proved their loyalty more fully than the
Norwegians. They are gradually abandon
ing the use of the Norwegian language in
their church services, replacing it with
English, as rapidly as the members become
familiar with the English, and at the pres
emit convention they will consider the drop
ping of Norwegian" from the name Of the
church.
It is not that they love Norway less, but
that they love America more.
Therefore Fargo welcomes the visitors,
not as Norwegians nor as Lutherans, but as
fellow Americans, and as neighbors whom
we are glad to see and know.

MAY BE Joker" IN TT.

That j. W. Brinton has been removed
from the list Of Nonpartisan league speak
ers, as a result of the protest of Beach cit
liens and the Fargo War Organization, was
the substance of dispatch from Bismarck
yesterday.
An advertisement filing three-quarters
of a page Of last Saturdays North Dakota
Leader, says: "Our general manager ar
rested. Our general manager will hold
meetings throughout North Dakota as has
been planned"
Judging from this advertisement and
from Mr. Brinton's interview in The
Courier-News, it is possible there may be a
t'joker" in the Bismarck dispatch, and that
he will continue to speak on behalf of the
league s store plan, claiming that he has no
connection with the league or Governor
Frazier's campaign. If this is the case, such
contemplate subterfuge will only add to
the disgust aroused in decent citizens by
the whole incident Of Horst, Randall and
Brinton.
