PROGRAMS
at Grand Theatre Wednesday
and Thursday
CAPT. NUsBAUM WILL LECTURE
Musical Preludes Will BE Furnished by
Di Georgia Quartette

The people Of Oakes and vicinity
are to be given an intellectual treat,
or, rather, three of them, next week
when the third number of our Com
munity programs will be presented
at the Grand theatre.
Captain C. S. Nusbaum, famed as a
community lecturer, will deliver the
address at each Of the three meetings,
Wednesday evening and Thursday af-
ternoon and evening. This man has
most enviable reputation as an ora
tor. and newspaper clippings show
that he has pleased his audiences at
every appearance since the start Of
his present tour, and North Dakota
people are very discriminating, partic-
ularly in the matter Of community
lectures.
The captain gains the confidence Of
his hearers right at the start, and
holds their interest until he has utter
ed his last sentence.
The N Georgia quartette is compos-
ed Of three charming ladies and gen
tleman, all artists and well known
from one end of the country to the
other. They will furnish a musical
prelude to the lecture at every pro-
gram, and If the words Of those who
have seen and heard them count for
anything, our people will miss some
thing rare if they fail to attend these
concerts.
These people are sent out by the
Community Development association,
organized in 1918, and having for its
object the bringing closer together
of the people of the community. This
organization has no axe to grind, but
is purely unselfish. That the idea is
we'll thought of is evidenced by the
fact that the Development association
has received flattering offers to extend
the scope of its activities to other
states, and in fact contemplates doing
so, in the hope that it will become na-
tional in character.
Ea&h cs,nmucit:, visISsd by these
speakers and musicians 10 required to
guarantee the financial success of the
project, and the business men of our
city are behind this proposition with
their money, as we'll as their moral
support.
The cost of these programs is in
significant. Single admissions, adults
SO cents, children Is cents. A season
ticket may be secured at q much lower
figure.
The Community programs teach US
how to be good to each other, and Of
fer suggestions along the line Of
civic improvement. beginning at the
heart.
Boost these programs. They are
put on for our own good, and it il up
to US to show our appreciation by
making it point to be present.

REMoDELING LOCKE BULL
Three C's Store to Enter BUSINESS on
Modern Scale

Plans and specifications have been
completed for the remodeling Of the
Locke building on Union street, which
has been occupied for more than a
year by the Three C's store, and work
began Monday morning of this week
1t is planned to tear out the old
front of the building and replace it
with new one of different design
The entrance will be in the center,
with large display windows at either
side Of the doorway. AS the store
faces the south, it has been hard to
keep fruit in the windows from spoil
ing on account of the shallow front
This will be remedied by the proposed
change.
As soon as the frost is out of the
ground, work will begin ON sixty
foot extension at the rear Of the
store, with full basement under the
addition as well as under the main
part. This will give a total space on
the first floor Of 1876 square feet, with
just as much room in the basement.
Mr.. jackson, proprietor Of the store,
informs the reporter that he plans to
inaugurate something entirely new in
the grocery business here. All coun-
ters and show cases will be eliminated,
and goods arranged 70 that customers
may select their own purchases. This
system is known a. the "Piggisdy-
Wiggledy" style and 10 becoming very
popular in many sections Of the coun.
try. The management expects to de-
partmentize the grocery business in
order to be able to handle goods in
carload lots and distribute large guam
titles to consumers at wholesale prices.
Mr.. jackson is well pleased with the
patronage accorded him since the op-
ening Of the store, and proposes to
locate here permanently and "grow up
with the city,.

NOTES OF THE
FARM BUREAU
Sickness Prevents One of Speakers
Attending Meetings Held in
Various Parts of County
CLUB ORGANIZED AT GUELPH
About Fifty Farmers Present at Very
Interesting Session

A farmers meeting was held at
Silverleaf, Guelph, Ludden and the
Dickey consolidated school last week.
Due to sickness, one Of the speakers
originally scheduled did not appear
and the other one was snowbound and
later missed his connections. The
farm bureau Office failed to receive
word to this effect and this necessita-
ted cancelling one meeting Ut the last
minute. Had this Office received word
in time some one would have been
present or the farmers would have
been notified in advance Of the meet
ing time. The agent was banking on
these men, and was busy at the time
with . sale cstalog, faxmess' institute
and half dozen other things that had
to be done, and expected to appear on
the program later in the afternoon.
About fifty farmers were present
at the Guelph meeting. Mr.. Barton
of the college gave very interesting
talk on poultry and Mr.. Couey talked
on potato diseases.
The matter Of organizing a farmers
club was considered and it was agreed
that such an association should be
formed, not only for the purpose Of
social entertainment, but for the car
rying out Of definite constructive work
of benefit to the whole community.
II. c. Van Meter was chosen. presi-
dent and j. j. Wallace vice president.
r. E. Thomas was chosen secretary.
A committee on some constructive
program for the benefit of the Guelph
community is to be appointed. Re-
gardless Of what this committee de-
cides upon, whether it be along the
line Of good roads, better stock, beau
-tifying farmsteads, community build
ing, the getting of good settlers or
anything that will result in the bet
: ternssnt Of the Guelph community, we
feel that the people will get back Of
it and that in few short years the
outgrowth of this work will be evident
in a closer knit and more prosperous
citizenship. An organization without
an ideal in mind or the lack of some
definite piece Of work to do cannot
exist very long. It is comparable to
the fellow who is all dressed up and
has no place to 60. It il felt that this
community is starting out right. C.
B. Maddox, who is the community
chairman for the Guelph Farm bureau,
10 to be . member Of this committee.
The others have not as yet been ap-
pointed. Two other minor committees
were also chosen to provide entertain
ment for the next meeting, which will
be held on Feb. l3.
