Describing the assurance OF the
Kaiser when ne made his memorable
boast to ambassador Gerard at the
time OF the latter's departure from
( Germany that he would stand no
nonsense from the United States,
Mr. Babise reminded his audience
that II was simply Americas army

stated that the sacrifice made by the
soldiers were such that no loyal or
Just American can refuse 10 pay 70

Venerable Pioneer

Thomas w. TAFT, died at his farm
home north of Roberts, Friday, at
the age of 68 years. He was born at
Warrington, N. Y, in 1851, and came
to Prescott at the age of seventeen
years. He was married in 1872,

1895 to 1916, when they came to
their farm near Roberts to live.
Mr.. TAFT was married again in 1907
to Mrs. Timberlake of Kinnickinnic.

health all winter, but was a patient
sufferer, and as spring came on, he
gradually grew worse and succumb-
ed to hardening of the arteries.
The bereaved ones will sadly miss

his wife and children who have the
deepest sympathy Of host of friends
and relatives. The funeral was held
Sunday. Interment in Warren

Student Play A Hit

1T Pays to Advertise" proved a
decided success last Friday night,
and no doubt many of those that at
tended the play went away thorough
ly converted to the doctrine of SEN
sational advertising. The play was
one of the most humorous and inter-
esting amateur performances that
has been presented in River Falls.
and the interest with which the
audience followed the unfolding of
the plot was evidence in itself of the
success of the cast in presenting
this rather difficult professional
play. The writer has always felt
that in amateur plays a great share
of the interest developed in watch
ing the way in which friends and
acquaintance filled the professional
parts. In this case, the parts were
portrayed so accurately that the
amateur phase of the performance
was completely forgotten in the in
terest of the play itself.
Dorothy Scott in the role Of
Mary Grayson. a young business
woman, proved herself keen Judge
of character and an astute manipu-
lator of finance. Her work was of
very high order and showed care
full attention to detail.
Viola Solheim, in the other femin-
inc part, interpreted the difficult
character of a French adventures
with great deal of skill, and her
flow of French held the audience
spell-bound.
Fred Huber, who filled the role of
Cyrus Martin. successful fnancier,
was admirable. His part was
particularly difficult because of the
fact that he was interpreting char
acter fifty or sixty years Of age.
Felix Ullrich, as Cyrus Martins
son, filled the rather difficult part Of
young business man and lovesick
youth with great facility.
Manley Healy made a big hit as
the loquacious Ambrose Peace, and
his harangues on the virtue Of extern
sive advertising were most con-
vincing.
vi Philip Snodgrass did a very nice
little bit of character impersonation
in the role of Ellery Clark, an idle
son of the rich.
The other minor parts were most
ably filled by Lois Bird. Agnes
Bottolfson, Wayne Ingli, Frank
Bixby, and Paul Bird.
The play was put on by Miss nellie
Schlosser, who is in charge of all
dramatic work at the Normal
School, and too much credit cannot
be given her for the manner in which
the play was produced. The entire
production was rounded into finished
form in trifie over four weeks
and all who saw the performance
will agree with the writer in saying
that it was a finished production
from the first curtain until the final
one. Financially the play was also a
decided success, and as result Of
the performance the 1919 Meletean
will be ahead between 500 and $100
