Sale Here not Satisfactory

c. p Jenkins returned from Lisbon
Saturday where he conducted the
horse sale. He reports good sales at
Ellendale, Edgeley and LaMoure and
these three towns will be included in
the next chain of sales. Cakes and
Lisbon will be dropped out because Of
the hig', prices at which the horses
were held.
1t is expected to take in ten towns
in the next chain of sales. this spring
and the plan is to have sixty in the
state where sales can be held and
make it semi-annual affair. Mr..
Jenkins feels that tire people Of the
Oakes community made a bad mis-.
take not to make every effort to stay
in such lineup where a number of
city buyers will come at least twice
year to take away their surplus
horses.
It is the only time the people Of the
Oakes community ever had to dispose
Of all classes Of marketable horses on
the same day. Horses were bought at
these sales from $50 to $215. The
buyers seemed more anxious to buy
good horses at good prices than to
take the less desirable ones for much
less money.

Big Community Building Seems
to Be What Is Wanted by Firen,en

It's a big hall the Cakes commun-
ity wants and it wants it on the main
street too.
The Oakes folks came together
again on Tuesday evening to talk
community building and decide on a
site. and If the talks and the action
are a criterion of what Cakes wants
Tie building is going 10 be a hum
dinger
F. H. Buckwalter, a community ad-
vance man. who was in the city, was
asked by Chairman Knox of the Com
mercial Club to present his views on
the subject and he did it very
thoroughly. The Community buildings
are mostly put away from the busi-
ness center. as they are designed for
amusement and the two should be
kept separate. When man goes out
for amusement he. wants to get away
from the air of the business life.
Some had the idea in mind that such
a building should be put in the park.
But the firemen had the thing pref
ty well healed when they gathered
and put out Ex-Mayor Malander as
their spokesman. He had the floor
mostly to himself and when the vote
was taken at the close those present
were almost unanimous for main
street as the location, the place de-
cided on being lots between the Ram.
hartor. and Leader h,li1dinve
Three other places were mentioned,
the lots across from the postofice,
the lots on the Brown corner opposite
the Times block, and the lots between
the Harris pool hall and the Vinkle
House.

The third of the series of four Com.

ranged for early last fall by local
people, will be presented at the
Grand theatre in Cakes on Friday
and Saturday, March 14-15.
AS in the two previous programs
there will be a concert and lecture
Friday evening, Saturday afternoon
and Saturday evening.
The usual low admission price will
prevail, 10c and Csc.
The previous program held in Jan.

most enjoyable affair as well as in
structive. A goodly number of out of
town people attended and were so
well pleased that it is safe to say
they will all attend the next one, the
next number being more thoroughly
advertised and already having a favor.
able atmosphere created in advance
promises to be a hummer.
We are assured by Mr.. Buckwalter,
who was here looking after the adver-
tising for the program that this is
the best organization billed so far.
The quartette consisting of two
men and two women was selected and
organised in Chicago just for this
purpose and is to be classed with the
very best Of the troupes which play
the chautauqua circuits.
Mr.. Theo. Turnquist is the reader
OF the company-giving readings in
the Jew. Swede and Irish dialects. He
is also tenor Of note and violinist.
Mrs Severinghous gives selections in
costume and is said to be the most
rapid changing artist on the plat
form today.
Miss Amy Douth is Prima Donna
singer, having travelled extensively
over the United States with several
Grand Opera companies.
She is also an artist with the violin.
Her rendering of singing and violin
selections is we'll worth going a great
many miles to hear. She has a mes.
sage for those who hear her.
Mr.. Lancelot sBufton is the tenor
and celloist.
This combination Of artists with
their varied program will meet the
highest expectations of the most crit
ical audiences.
DR.. F. Osen, Sarken, who travels
with the quartette is man of nation
al reputation as writer and lecturer.
His subjects will be some phases of
community building and with his abii-
ity behind them they cannot fail to
interest and instruct.
These community programs are
proving to be big success through
out North Dakota in over one hun.

Who Would Not Agree That
Americanization of Hotel
Menu Would Help a Little?

AUGMENTATION of various things is
the topic much discussed now, OBJ
serves Tavern Talk. We read of a
movement in industry to American
ize employees to increase efficiency.
This is timely; why not carry the idea
further at once and apply it in the
hotel industry?
A good beginning would be move
ment to eliminate the practice of COM
piling menus, which are a combina-
ton of meaningless French and dis
torted English. Why caviar canape,
when an English equivalent exists?
Why not clam broth instead of bouil-
Ion? Why grilled when we mean
broiled? Norwegian sounds and looks
as well as Norvegienne, and means
something. Pommes julienne with
an English name would taste as
sweet; glace is a poor ending for
good sweet potatoes, while demi-tasse
is but the size of the cup, not what
it contains.
