BAND CONCERT TO
...., BE BIG AFFAIR
Fifty-six Piece Band TO Be in Star
buck, Next Wednesday, after :
noon and evening.

June 22nd will find the Luther
College Concert Band in our midst.
This organization has visited us be-
Their present tour features the six
tieth anniversary of the college and
the boys are all determined to make,
the trip one of which their Alma
Mater may always be proud.
The Luther College Concert Band
have in previous years taken sever
al tours. In 1906 and 1911, they
toured the Pacific Coast. In 1914,
they were rendered special invita-
ton from King Haakon to attend
the Continental festivities of Nor
ways independence. On it's return
the troupe travelled through Sweden,
Denmark, Germany, Belgium, France
England and America. Also on this
tour, they visited our Northwest. At
that time, they made such an i'm
preston that the people are still
talking about it.
In 1915, it took another trip to
the west coast in response to an
invitation given by the authorities
of the Panama-Pacific Exposition,
The trip this summer requests for
their temperance in the west.
Therefore if people 1900 miles away
are so anxious to hear them, it
would be shame to miss their con-
certs, especially since they come right
to our door.
The writer had the good fortune
to attend the Grand Concert given
by the band, just before leaving on
their present tour. Their first con-
cert on their trip was given in Can
ton, S. D., on June 7th and they ex-
pect to give two concerts day I'M
til August % when they will give
their big Home Coming Program in
DEBORAH, Ia.
This trip will take them thru Min
nesota, the Dakotas, Montana, Wash
ington, Oregon, Van Couver Island
and home again thru Canada. 1873
Besides being skilled as group,
the organization includes many in
dividual artists who, I feel certain,
will favor us with several numbers
C. Vittorio Sperati~ and his Zylo-
phone solos have swept the most
critical audiences.
Leon C. Sorlin, solo Cornetist
as we'll as the president of the Band,
is a real artist in his line and his
appearances are always a credit to
the Concert troupe. That is not all,
but the college quartette and college
Glee Club also accompany the band.
In such songs as Grieg's "Landsight=
ing" the solo part being taken by S.
P. Orwall, the Glee Club. gives vent to
the sturdy, and vigorous spirit which
is always found in school like Luth-
er College.
Remember the date, June p. De-
eide to come and encourage your
friends to do the same. Concerts will
be given both afternoon and evening,

COUNTY COURTS DISAPPOINT-

Less than year ago q good deal
was being said about the great need
Of county courts in certain sections
Of the state. IL was claimed that
they would do wonders in many
ways, especially in relieving con-
gestion, and in bringing about
speedy trials. The statement was
made that the dockets were so
crowded that it was impossible for
them 20 be cleared; by the usua!
sessions OF the regular courts. ard
that there wee cases that mad been
standing for long periods that
should have been disposed of. In
other words the courts were over
worked. and the only relief was to
be found in the esta blishment OF
county courts.

Germans Are Res:ln,ing Trade With
China.

London, Nov. i9.-The Germans
are gradually returning to China
and picking up the threads OF their
former business: not trading for,
the present under their own names
but in partnership with Chinese,
says a report on the commercial Sit
uation of China. by H. H. Fox,
commercial counselor Of the British
Legation in Peking.
German dyes and paints, needles.
metals. drugs and sundries are be-
ginning TO appear on the Shanghai
market. the report goes on, and 1t
IS stated that several important or
ders for machinery and electro
plant have recently been. booked eS
Germans firms.
There is no doubt, the report
says. that the Germans, assisted by
the comparative clleapness OF
their products, will gradually re-
cover the share they held in Chi
ena's foreign trade before the war;
but the process will be slow, as
they haze lost valuable connections;
the business organizations they
had so laboriously built up have
been shattered. and they have sui
fered a serious loss Of prestige IN
the eyes of the Chinese.
