SUNDAYS CONCERT
GREAT LOCAL EVENT
Program Of Grand Opera and Popular
Selections Promises To Guido
Any Heretofore Presented.

A truly great treat is in store for
the music lovers of Glasgow at the
concert which will be given next Sun
day evening by the Glasgow Band and
Grand Opera Singers.
The players have been practicing
diligently and earnestly for the past
two weeks under the skillful leader
ship of Professor Malanes. The pro-
gram has been worked out very care
fully with the tastes Of everyone in
mind. Grand opera for some, popular
numbers for others, and something of
interest for all who attend the on
cert. The selections where the vocal
lists assist the band are an extraor-
binary affair for a small community
of this size and will long be remember
ed by the audience.
Professor Malanes came to Glas-
gov with the highest recommended
lions as to his musical talent. He is
a composer of no mean ability as well
as a natural band leader and chorus
director. He has extended himself to
the utmost on this program in order
to show just what can be done along
musical lines in our city. The members
of the band and chorus are all of one
accord in giving him praise for his
work and want to show Glasgowites
just what they can do under his skill
full guidance.
The first operate selection en- the
program will be from the Opera
Carmen" introducing the famous
"Toreador" song, sung by Mr.. Rasey
and chorus. Also the difficult cha
banera" by Mrs. Vallandingham with
the chorus. The neat operate sell
ection "Envil's Chorus" from IllTrov-
adore and the beautiful song "Tem-
pest of the Heart" sung by Mr.. Halla-
day.
Miss Hazel Hurd and Mr.. Alden as
sisted by the chorus will render the
wonderful "Prison Scene" and "Mis-
sere."
The complete program is not an
nounced as yet account of some small
changes to be made, and because Prof.
essor Malanes wishes to have some
good surprises for the night of the
concert.
Piano accompanist for the concert
will be Mrs. Arthur B. Friedlund. Vo.
cal scores are arranged by Professor
Malanes.

MOST INTENSE
RAINFALL ON RECORD

Two and one-half inches of rainfall
in three minutes!
A reproduction Of the rainfall gage
register showing that downpour-a
record made in 1911 and still recog-
nized by the Weather Bureau, United
States Department of Agriculture, as
the most intense rainfall of which it
has data-appears in the current num-
Der of the Monthly Review, published
by the Weather Bureau. The illustra-
ton accompanies a technical discus
sion of rain and sunshine in the Canal
Zone. This heavy fall of rain occur
red at Porto Bello in the Canal Zone.
Not alone in the Canal Zone but at
200 points in the United States the
Weather Bureau maintains observa-
ton stations at which accurate re-
cords are kept of rainfall, snowfall,
temperature, etc, so that any person
interested can ascertain accurately the
weather history of practically any sec
ton of the country by applying to the
Weather Bureau. Commercial and
scientific organizations, as various
crops, frequently apply to the bureau
for information of this sort.

GRAIN POSTOFFICE CLOSED

The p~ostoffice at Nashua has re-
ceived orders that the post office at
Grain Montana, will be discontinued
on and after August 31st of this year.
The local authorities were notified by
the p~ostoffice department the first of

all government supplies, ETC., from the
office that is to be closed.
No reason was given for this order
by the department as the office was
supplying the settlers of a consider

been considerable strife among the in
habitants of the locality relative to the
office and it is thought that this had
