"Pair of Skies" to Be Played Again
Friday Evening

Following request from the many
who were unable to attend the prev
ious performances Of "A Pair Of
Sixes," that great laughable comedy
presented by local talent under, the
direction of Sanford Dodge, the play
will be presented at the high school
auditorium again Friday evening" Of
this week John e. Towards high
school orchestra will be on hand for
this entertainment.
The writer attended the New Years
night performance and we want to go
on record as saying that this is just
about the best local talent play we
have ever seen given anywhere. The
comedy is not only an exceedingly
clever affair, but the players were
carefully selected and well trained.
If you want five dollars worth Of fun
for dollar, attend "a Pair of Skies
Friday night and at the same time
help out good cause, the Minot Dent
al clinic for the public schools, for the
benefit of which the play is given.

j.. l. Cahill, member of the budget
commission, has made preliminary
estimate of the appropriations asked
by the various state departments and
institutions, placing the figures at So
oOGoO0, as compared to $4,6S7, 500
for the biennial period just ending. 1t
is expected that efforts will be, made
in the budget commission or in the
legislature to cut the appropriations
to somewhere near the pre-war figure.
The legislators who take a stand on
a program of strictest economy, will
make a big hit with the folks, back
home who are trying to pay their
taxes. There are simply millions of
dollars in unpaid taxes turnout the
state. Gentlemen, give us chance to
catch our breath and get few sheck
els ahead as well.
