PRETTY OUT OF DOOR
WEDDING NEAR PARSHALL

she and Mr.. Scroggs had accompanied
the bride and gentleman friend (no
Mr.. Brieman), to a Fourth of Jul,
celebration at Shell Village. Thu
party Travelled in an old style demo
crat wagon. They got lost on the
way home and kept on, driving hithel
and yon, over the prairies until day.
light.
C. F. Truax after facilitating the
newlyweds, spoke reminiscently OF
how he had himself chosen girl, a
schoolteacher, from these very pra-
tries, adding that she was good cook
which most school teachers weren't.
At this last remark there was great
indignation among the several school,
marms who had helped prepare the
wedding dinner, and Mr.. Truax was
called to task for his rash statement.
The matter was adjusted without SER
ious consequences, however.
And so mid jest and laughter the
pleasant afternoon wore to a close.
The wedding gifts were beautiful
and useful and included a gorgeous
Indian blanket that the bride was re-
quested to wear on her shopping ex-
petitions in the twin cities.
The bride is one of Banner town.
ships pioneers and is a young woman
of accomplishment and charm. She
taught school for 1/2 years at Sc
attic, Wash, and has also taught in
the schools of Parshall and vicinity
She has done her share in the upbuild
ing Of a new community and every
good cause has received her support.
She has unusual histrionic ability, and
the amateur dramatic club Of Banner
township known as the Banner
Stars" will miss it's Heading lady".'
The groom is a business man Of St.
Paul and has a position with the St.
Paul Gas Appliance Co. A stranger
to the people here, he made good
impression on US all, and we know
that he must be the successful man
and gentleman that he would need to
be to win the bride he has gained.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bierman will leave
this week via auto for St. Paul, where
the groom has nice bungalow wait
ing at 1875 Palace St., and where
they assure US, their North Dakota
friends will always find a warm well
come.
Our best wishes go with them to
their new home.

SWEET CLOVER MAKES
VALUABLE PASTURE

Agricultural College, N. D., Oct. ~.
Some idea of the value of sweet
clover for pasture can be gained from
the experience of A. v. Eastman and

port that four head of scrub cows

per day for 80 days.
These cattle were put on the pas
,ture July 16 and were taken off Aug

CHAUTAUQUA IS SUCCESS
PATRONAGE VERY GOOD AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION FINE
Program Gave Excellent Satisfaction
and Was Much Better Than In
Former Years

From the standpoint of general ex-
cellence, the Redpath Chautauqua of
last week oyertops any previous en-
tertainment Of the kind shown in our
city. The weather, attendance, condi-
ton of grounds, deportment Of all con-
nected with the enterprise; smoothness
of operation, financial support, and
the maliageniel.< and chargcter of the
entertainments leave very little to be
desired. The only wonder is how they
can do it for the price.
The lecturers were above the ordin-
airy and the number less than usual,
which gave more variety to the pro-
gram. Benefits rapid-fire oratory
held the people spell bound, but both
Colledge and Sanford left messages
, that will long be remembered by all
who heard them and can not help but
be power for good in the community.
The 0lcott Co., Paramount Enter
tanners, Artists Co., with their several
, vocalists and instrumentalists were
most pleasing, Reno, the Magician,
presented a program that could not be
/ improved on from the chautauqga
stage, as bunch of about twenty pro
fessional nagicians from Chicago
stated, after witnessing his perform
ance of about three weeks since. "Mr.
Reno, we know how you did the tricks
but we could not see you do them"
No artists on the road has anything
on Reno.
Two numbers that were more than
worth the price of the entire program
were KryFs Band and the play at
Pays to Advertise" .Kryl is one of the
worlds greatest cornet soloists and
his program was presented with a
snap that was gratifying. No tedious
waits that are often associated with
great artists; and a profusion of enS
cores that were on the popular order
1 Some time we would like to have Mr..
Kryl here when labor trouble and mu-
stefan unions were not so much in
evidence and exacting in their de-
mands.
at Pays to ADVERTISE" was one of
the best if not the best comedies ever
given in Viroqua. Although handi-
capped by lack of stage room and set
tings, there was no dull moment, every
member of the cast was an artist and
seemed especially fitted for the part.
They said it was a New York cast and
we believe them.
! The receipts of the week will leave
nice balance on the right side and
the local coElmittee are to be con-
graduated for their excellent work
and success. Next year if all who
enjoyed the success, will help with
! just a little work, we can soon en-
gage the best attractions on the road.
