Lucy Gates

"Some people have to live down
handicap have to sing down mine
II have to sing down the American
name of Lucy Gates-it has been lny
greatest trial. If my name sounded
like a French salad or ended in "sky"
l should have been welcomed with
open arms; but being just only a
plain ordinary everyday American
how untemperamental!"
Lucy Gates gave forth the fore
going as bit of pessismism in ret
respect of the vivacious, brainy west
ern girl has forged her way, via the
,"Long long trail'' of hard, relentless,
unremitting work to the very heights
of recognition, before the war in Eu-
rope-since the waE-in America.
Lucy Gates manager however,
voices a quite opposite theory. "Ihe
war has brought about a big change
in our sentiments. The day Of the
American musician-the real, first
water variety, is at hand-and the
more truly home spun their names
and pedigree are, the more surely will
they be acclaimed by our people" One
critic absolutely epitomized it for
Lucy Gates. He said, "Lucy Gates
a name easy to remember-a voice
hard to forget" But Lucy Gates has
way of finding .even that too long.
She has that rare, peculiar and in
gratiating faculty Of being Just ''our
Lucy" to those who have known her
for a brief hour.
Tomorrow (Friday) when at the
High School Auditorium, for the first
time we hear the noted American
prima donna who has time and again
We'd successfully against the most
praised foreign luminaries, perhaps
we too shall decide that for this plucky
cherry little conlpatriot we have that
outstanding good will which will
make her in Minot, also "our Lucy".

BfR7HOLD NAN BACK
FROM STOCK SHOW
Levi Leifson Tells of the Wonderful
Exhibits at International Show
at Chicago.

Levi Leifson, q prominent Percher-
on breeder from Berthold, was In the
city Wednesday, enroute home from
Chicago where he attended the Inter
national Stock Show, which was held
from Nov. 20 to Dec. 6. He states
that the trip while q little expensive,
paid him we'll. A breeder must have
in his mind picture Of what he hopes
to develop and it proves of great
benefit to him to attend such show
where the best individuals from all
breeds from all sections of the coun-
try are to be seen. Naturally, he
was more interested in Percheron
horses than anything else. The own
Or Of the Champion Percheron stal-
lion, a breeder named Cursa from Illi-
nois, refused $4,000 for the animal,
which amount was offered him by q
Canadian. Mr.. Leifson says that
horse breeders believe that the price
Of good horses will soon advance.
There was great display of beef
cattle. He saw an Aberdeen-Angus
cow sell for $1,000 at the sale. The
Grand champion Shorthorn steer, from
Indiana, was 10 months old and weigh
ed 400 pounds. A little fourteen
year-old girl led the animal in the ring
and the spectators were especially
pleased to note how we'll she had the
animal trained.
North Dakota had an exhibit Of
Shorthorn cattle from the Aylor farm
at Grandon that attracted much at-
tention.
Mr.. Leifson said the weather was
not pleasant on account 70 the damp,
chilly sir and he is glad to get back
to North Dakota, where he hopes "a
get warmed up,, even if the thermom-
eter did register 80 below the day b
got back.

FORMER MINOT MAN TELLS
OF CALIFORNIA MOVIES
b. w. Hslsey Back From Long Beach,
For . Visit-Many People lnjur-
ed in Furnishing Amusement
for the Public.

B. W. Halsey Of Long Beach, Calf,
stopped in Mipot Monday for . visit
with his many old friends. Mr.. Hal
soy was formerly engaged in the tail
oring business in Minot, leaving this
city in 1918. While in Minot, he
was director Of the famous Minot
Metropolitan band, one of tho best
organisations Of it, kind the state has
ever had. He has been playing with
. concert band at Long Beach. On
his return to the west, he vim invos-
tigate business location 1T Butte,
Mont. tho he says he would much
rather return to Minot.
Mr.. Halsey's daughter, Hortense,
now young woman Of eighteen, il
Q graduate Of the Ruth st. Dennis
1a1eing school in Los Angeles, and
recently filled an engagement, doing
Q wood nymph dance for the movies.
Mr.. Halsey says that very large
number Of the moving pictures are
staged in the vicinity Of Long Beach.
The recent picture depicting the Ar
menian atrocities, which was shown
IN Minot, was staged in the desert
near Fresno, Calf. Mr.. Halsey tells
some very amusing things he has seen
in connection with the taking Of these
pictures. He was walking past a
saloon in Long Beach, when bum
was elected from the place, being
thrown out on his head. Mr.. Halsey
looked around and saw a movie cam
era grinding away. The fellow didn't
make very natural fall and it was
necessary to throw him out Of the
place four times, before the director
was satisfied. It was rather hard
on the fellow who was playing the
bum, but the thing must appear real
istic to the public and no pains are
spared. Mr. Halsey saw fellow
riding q bicycle along one of the
streets and he was carrying large
number Of boxes resting on his shoul-
derS. He ran into q man hole, pur-
posely Of course, for the picture, and
took terrible tumble. An entire
evening was spent at one Of the fash
ionable cabarets, getting scene that
would require but a minute or two on
the screen. A thirty piece orchestra
was hired for the occasion.

OLDT|MtR SAYS ALASKA BETTER
 THAN OUTSIDE

Charles W. Thrift, former con.
 ductor on A. E. C. trains, and a we'll known sourdough, arrived in Nenana yesterday from Fairbanks where he had recently arrived from a seven-month's sojourn in the States. He says he is glad to be back in the North again, and he, like the many others that have gone Outside and returned. says that, in view of the conditions pre- vailing in the States at the present time, Alaska is, incomparably a much better place to be in than any part of the States he had visited. While in the States, MT. Thrift visited Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Frisco, Los Angeles and various other towns in California He also met a great many Alaskans, all of whom are making preparations to come North again. Many chechacos are also talking Alaska, he says, and predicts that there will be great influx of people into the Northland as soon as the rivers are open for navigation.
 According to MT. Thrift, Cali fornia has many advantages in the way of living conditions which the state of Washington does not enjoy. The feeling of unrest and disaffec- tion would appear to be more pro- nounced and noticeable in and around the big cities in Washington, where also the proportion of idle men appears to be greater. These are conditions brought about as a result of the war, and they will, he thinks, adjust themselves later. Alaskans are well off, in his opinion, and visit to the States. he thinks, will convince the most skeptical old Northerner who may think he could better himself in the States, as to the truth of his statement.
 Charlie Thrift is busying himself renewing old acquaintances, after which ne will settle down and stay in Alaska evermore.
