REDWOOD FALLS ELECTRIC
TELEPHONE COMPANY TO
ERECT NEW PLANT.

At recent meeting of the direc-
tors of the newly organized telephone
company of this city, it was practical
ly decided to erect new plant. The
directors have received plans and
specification and are considering the
same. The price submitted is reason
able, and as new building is a cry
ing necessity, it is very likely that it
will begin work in the near future.
We learn that it will cost approxi-
mately $1,000 to put the present plant
in suitable condition for the install
lation of the automatic system. The
directors have wisely come to the
conclusion that it il better to build
a permanent plant than to sink any
more money in improvements. Their
aim is to put the telephone system on
business basis to give 100 per cent
service, and this can be permanently
done by building its own plant, center
ally located.
Operations are already under way
towards removing the poles on the
main streets and putting the wires un-
derground. This will remove an eve
sore from the streets that has long
offended the scenery.

American Legion
to Stage Comedy
IT'S ENTITLED "JIM'S GIRL" AND
WILL BE PRESENTED JUNE
18th and 18th. .sss

An announcement has just been
Forthcoming, that will at once be re-
ceived with glad acclaim, to the effect
that the local post of the American
Legion have just completed arrange
ments whereby the Benson Amuse-
ment Company will present under
their auspices at the Redwood Falls

most recent success in the entire do
main of comedy, "Jim's Girl" the
same being the joint work of Earl
Carroll, author of the well known sue
cess $50 Long Lefty" and Tommy
Gray, an playwright who did
his share for many months in keeping
up the spirits of the "boys that were
over there"
Most of the action in "Jim's Girp
takes place in a small Indiana town,
to which Jim Bedford, one of its pop
ular young men, returns after seeing
considerable active service overseas.
Accompanying him is his buddy
Eddie Fry. Unknown to Jim, Eddie
has aided Yvonne, his pals sweetheart
to embark on the same boat as a stow
away, and while he has wooed and
won Yvonne while in France, embark
ing orders for America did not provide
for her, and the unravelling of the
endless red tape incidental to their
marriage forbid them taking the much
desired step as the time would not
permit. Unfortunately, however
Yvonne is discovered aboard ship, but
afterwards eludes the officers, who
have her in tow, and eventually finds
her way to Jim's home in the little
village of Rumor, Ind. That she Gre
ates something approaching a near.

out saying. Henceforth events hap

manner
During the unfolding of the story
Eddie takes upon himself a wife; jim
gets decoration; his mother gets the
| long end of business deal and al
ends well as it should in all well regu-
lated comedy dramas.

Band Concert
Grand Success
AN UNUSUAL LARGE CROWD
WAS IN ATTENDANCE
AT CONCERT.

The band concert given by the See
mic City Band at the Armory last
Friday evening was one of the best
musical entertainments given in this
city for several years. From the op-
ening march by Rosenkranz to the
Star Spangled Banner, the band boys
showed lots of pep and evidence that,
as a band, they have arrived into their
own. Each of them showed that the
painstaking care of Professor Bittrich
had produced wonderful results from
the band of few years ago.
We have asked quite a few people
as to their opinion of the showing
made by the band, and everyone had
nothing but praise for the concert.
This shows what unity of purpose can
accomplish when under able leader
ship. Mr.. Bittrich is indeed to be
complimented on the success of the
concert. The attendance can also be
considered as testimonial to the
band as a whole and shows that the
people of this city appreciate good
music
Interspersed among the instrument
tai number were two vocal solos, one
by Max R. Fl. Treu and Miss Mildred
Leonard, both of which were well re-
ceived and warmly applauded, especi-
ally the song "a Dream" sung by
Mr.. Treu.
No doubt this was the most appre-
ciative audience to attend a band con-
cert for some time, as the applause
was given ungrudgingly and in a spir-
it that showed sincerity. The band is
tempered just about right, and We
hope that it will always remain 8
4 credit to themselves and Redwood
Falls.

and the land lying adjacent to the
north and east of the deer and elk pas
