Chorus singing, such as comes only
as the result of months Of training un-
der the inspired dictatorship Of genius:
and perfect knowledge of the posi-
lblllties of the human voice, held a
large audience bound at the throne Of
the goddess Of harmony last, Sunday.
evening at the Strand theatef when the
st. Olaf Lutheran choir presented an.
inspiring concert of sacred songs under
the dictatorship Of F. Melius Christian
sen. The St. Olaf Lutheran College
choir, Of Mortified, IS members strong,
came to- Warren as the result of an
open date III their June tour, which
took them to Gradn Forks. on Monday.
evening. The singers were brought to
Warren Sunday from Crookston by
automobile and, after being entertain
ed in Warren homes following the con-
cert, left for Grand Forks the follow
ing morning. The rain Sunday after
noon kept many from nearby towns
away although the opera house was
filed practically y to capacity.
To say that the choir presented the
superb in chorus singing and solo mem
bers accompanied by the volume Of the
choir, is but to suggest the grand sim
plicity, the inspiring harmony and the
wonderful musical selections flowing
forth from IS trained throats in per-
feet accord. s 81
A Christmas Song, arranged by r.
NJ. Christensen, was one of the most:
inspiring numbers on a program, which
breathed reverence throughout each
number and brought to the adoIing
audience gathered at the Strand, that
sublime sense Of sacred things, "a little
al0of from the common touch Of lu-
manity. Individual and collective
singing, blended into the composite
unity of each number, was waited into
the silence from whence it came as
softly as the darkness into the dawn
of a new day. The richness; the pro-
found pureness of those 55 voices; sing
ing together or singly, reflected but one
idea, the perfect unification of those 50
trained voices into one harmonious
composite whole, from which flowed
forth singing such as may be enjoyed

G. G. Selyigs Is Speaker
AT Farm Club Picnic

The Progressive Farmers Club Of
acknowledgement and adjoining COM
munity held its third annual picnic in
the old Abelson grove on Wednesday,
June 18th. The weather was rather
threatening to attract very large
audience but nevertheless we had a
fair crowd
Mr.. Q. G. Selvig, Superintendent of
the Northwest School of Agriculture of
the University Farm at CrOOkston. was
the speaker of the day. That everyone
enjoyed his talk was selfevident from
the fact that every ear was attentive.
z Other numbers on the literary pro-
gram were songs by Miss Gena Olson
and one by four of our. club boys.
sIPerhaps the most interesting number
on the sport program was the tug-of-
war. First Helgeland, with Brandt as
opponents, tugged away, the latter
gaining inch by inch till the mark was
passed. Brislet then picked up the
Helgeland end Of the rope and followed
in their footsteps over the line, thus
leaving Brandt the victors in the con-
test between the three towns since the
club held its first picnic. e
Helgeland carried off most of the
prizes in the sport program, and most
credit is due T.. ID. Peterson and r. e.
miller, who, tho old married mem
will easily outjump or outrun anyone
in this vicinity. {. 81
The rope climbing contest was won
by Leonard Olson, who climbed a rope
to a height Of approximately % feet
and came down in 13 seconds, This
was little less than half the time of the
second nearest competitor.
The baseball game, which concluded
the program, was rather hard fought
battle. Brislet got we'll in the lead in
the first inning. II. the third, however,
the club team took the lead and re
manned there til the close Of the fifth
when they tied and another inning left
It still q tie. The next, however, de-
cided in favor OF Brislet.
The failure Of the people from the
surrounding towns and villages to at
tend the picnic was especially notice
able Extensive preparations Of well
come and for the entertainment Of these
folks were made by the country clubs,
which were considerably disapp pointed
at the non-appearance of people from
the nearby towns IL the county. Senti-
inent expressed at the !

at this community affair but was hope

county at the fifth annual joint.
picnic of Marshall county Farm
ers' clubs and Farm Bureau units
last Saturday afternoon at Men
zel's grove, three miles east of.
Argyle.
The Governors address was preced-
ed by an excellent address by Harry N
Owen, editor of Farm, Stock and Home
in which he spoke on the Unfinished
Program Of Democracy. He traced the
{ rise and spread of democracy as form
Of government and held that democracy,
as means of government, has been
achieved. Its unfinished program is to
lead the world to cooperation instead
OF the present system of national rival
ries, according to the editor, and it is
the mission Of the United States to
realize that the rest of the world is
really facing a great crisis and seri-
Gus condition of bankruptcy. He felt
that it is time for America to take
stock of it's social, political and in
tellectual assets that righteous lead
in world program may be taken. Mr..
Owen showed a comprehensive knOwl-.
edge of world affairs, which he brought
out well in his address. He is an ex-
cellent speaker and gave an excellent
address. @a
The afternoon program was opened
by several we'll played selections by the
Warren Juvenile band. Invocation was
offered by Rev. V. P. Mitchell of War
rem. F.. A.. Green, representative from
the 9th district and president of the
county Federation of Farmers clubs,
gave short speech Of welcome and
introduced the speakers.
Governor Preus proved himself to be
an excellent speaker and held, the large
crowd at close attention throughout his
splendidly presented address. In open
ing he harked back to his beyhO0d days
