deep. mysterious wilderness, In which
lurked wild men and wild beasts.

ed with that patriotism which vivfely

They seemed we'll appointed for their
roles. Miss Beatrice Goodman as
Margie and Violet Lyons as Miss Per-
kins, were pleasing characters and
brought forth hearty laughs. Misses
Dechter, Goodman, Lefskets, Resler,
Barnett, Abrahamson, Fredkove and
Scheinbaum, as the eight dancing
gypsies made pleasing appearance.
Miss Idell Stein as the Jealous Mrs.
Chauncey was evidently well trained
in her part. She was typical char
acter and amused the audience with
her antics. George Knoblauch looked
like a genuine butler but did not seem
to have much to buttle about.
DR.. Freedman, with the able assist
ance of Miss Lillian Jeffery at the
piano, did admirable work with the
orchestra. In small orchestra the
piano plays an important part, and
Miss Jeffrey did justice to her part.
The audience received the play and
the players with much enthusiasm and
appeared to have spent pleasant af-

This will be a gala year in Mexico

tertainments materialize. Besides the
Fall Carnival and the Horse Show

nounced Wednesday that the dates
of his annual Round Up were Oct

Mr.. johnson stated that he was
negotiating with an Indian band at
Fort Peck, N. D., to furnish music

only organization of its kind in this
country.
He also stated that there would be
more riders and bigger features in
the 1921 Round Up than that of last

hopes that the Horse Show could be
made a part of the Round Up as well
as a show of farm products.

The Ideal Young Man,
While Much In Demand Is
Not Always Available

AS far as needing men is concern
ed" said DIR. F. ". Emerson Sunday
night, they are in demand by the
government by business, by politics
and by some women"
The topic Of his sermon was THE
Ideal Young Man." the second of a
series of ermon of like character
which he is giving every Sunday
night.
DR.. Emerson has received letters
from no less than sixteen young wo-
men, who wrote him anonymously at
his request for their ideal of a young
man.
He read a number ofthem from the
pulpit and they were unusually inter-
esting-one especially. This young
girl wrote Of her ideal and then adj
vised DR.. Emerson that if he saw such
a fellow going around to let her know.
He stated that the type of man she
uCoSilDOu was a HiOSI chCcltciiI -Iype,
but not overly plentiful this season, at
least.
All of the letters presented a sort
Of standardized ideal it seems. Some
very essential elements seemed to be
much in demand. First among them
was a profession of Christianity.
Others that stood high were: that he
must not d~issipate, must have respect
for his elders and many asked that he
not smoke.
"There Isl" said DIR. Emerson, "a
place for the right kind of mar in our
modern life, and a big and vital place,
but every mar must create that place
for himself. We are looking for self
made men.
After all tho, Webster says that an
ideal is only a Small imitation" so
we a hope that the best of these
letter sonly described small limitations
and that we can find even bigger fell
lows right here--if men will find
themselves.

Der.
An important referendum petition
from the National Chamber of Com
merce win be submitted to be acted
upon atthis meeting so it is very
urgently requested that every mem
Der be present.
Besides this business some local

Water Power Put 10 Good uso.

An interesting example Of the de-
velopment of water power Is reported
from Cashmere. There the Jhelum
river has been made to generate cleo
trical power to deepen its own chan
mel, and so prevent the ~overf1owing of
100000 acres of land, which are thus
made available for agriculture. The
fact that no coal was available, and
that the site was 200 miles from the
nearest railway station, made the use
Of water power imperative in this
case.

It would seem that a building 1900
feet above the sea level should he
protected by lightning rods. but the
astronomical observatory at Mount
Etna has not, and does not, need such
protection. The observatory is near
the summit of the volcano, and the
stream OF vapor constantly rising from
the crater acts as a natural conduc-
tor, draining the electricity out of the
clouds, so that lightning Is seldom
