FACULTY RECITAL
SPLENDID SUCCESS

An unusually large and apprecia-
tive audience met in the College Audi
torium Monday evening to hear anoth.
err fine concert given by the faculty OF
the Conservatory, and as usual, went
away feeling that Valley City is un-
usually lucky to be able to listen to
such program from our own people
who give this mplimentary treat
each term of the school year.
Miss Dorothy Waller, charming and
delightful, opened the evenings pleas
ures with Ploonaise by Kelley. She
captured her audience at once, and ere
ated an atmosphere which set things
right for the evening.
Mr.. Froysaa was very happy in his
selection of Mendelssohn's Concerto in
E Minor, one of the most beautiful of
all classic work for the violin, and
adapted to a general audience. He
PLAYED it in a most scholarly manner.
it was pure music, full of delight from
the beginning of the movement to the
end of the third. The piano part, full
of exquisite melodies, was most SYM
pathetically done by Mrs. Josephine
Wright Rhoades. :.
Miss Peckham's audiences appreci-
ate her more every time they hear her
Her voice is a beautiful medium for
the we'll chosen songs she sings. She
is particularly interesting in the
classic, old-fashioned things she does
SO very we'll. Her second number was
a nice contrast between Homer's
Sheep and Lambs and a charming
darkey song sung in the most satisfy
ing manner She shows herself fin
ished artist.
Mr.. Thomas Kemp appeared for the
first time before our people, who gave
him a well merited enthusiastic recep:
ton. He played Brahms Ballade and
the Gavotte in A fiat minor by
Sgambati. He knew how to get g
full round tone, which might be
strong and vibrant or velvet soft anc
subtle. He played with lot Of life
and enthusiasm. He made his phrases
clear and intelligently understood. His
Interpretation was colorful. In short
it would seem that the music faculty
has gained very important addition
in Mr.. Kemp.
Mrs. Wright has just returned from
her term of study in Chicago. She
goes back faithfully every summer to
renew her strength and gain more
power. This summer her master has
been Rudolph CAM, whose work is
famous both in this country and in
Europe.
Her playing of her List number
was far beyond criticism by the laity
1t closed fttingly program marked
by unusual excellence in each number
off red.
The complimentary recitals will con.
tinue, we believe to be important
events which no music lover ever
misses.

Assistant Postmaster Fred Jacob
son has been inspecting the rural
routes during the past week, and re-
ports the general conditions good; but
that MANY patrons have poor mail
boxes, and majority of them do
not have the name of the owner there
on as required by the regulations. This
discrepancy has been promised to be
taken care of by the rural patrons,
and incidently there should be a fine
opportunity for some active local sign
painter to pick up a little money by
securing the Job of painting the names

LASTSADRlT
FOR CAHlLL'SBANK

Carson, N. D., Oct. 11.-According
to the Leith correspondent of the Car
son Press, the Peoples State bank, OF
Leith, or what is left Of it, has been
bundled up and relegated to ware
house.
This bank. known as the "Cahill
bank" profted to the extent of many
thousands of dollars in the way Of de-
posts and loans from the Bank Of
North Dakota. When it closed it had
about $45 in cash on hand and the
Bank Of North Dakota had claims
against the institution of approximate
ly $4,000.
Following is what the Leith cores
pondent says Of the last development
in connection with the Cahill bank.
"On Friday of last week all that was
left of the once Peoples State bank
was relegated to the back alley of the
past. The wreckage was packed up
tied up, bundled up and placed in cold
storage at the rear of the Farmers
elevator. Rumor has it that paying
rent on Main street was too much Of a
luxury. Thus it is that Cahill's folly
sinks into the innocuous desuetude Of
the cold pulseless past. There will be
no monument, save that of the men,
DRY Of the departed shekels Of those
who were inveigled to invest their
good, hard earned dollars-or their
notes that remain unpaid, ghosts Of
the future. Just when receiver will
be appointed is a matter Of conjec-
ture. However, there are few who
have goodly amount frozen" up in
its empty archives and they may pc
tition the court any time to have the
obsequies over with.

will commence to be much heavier next
year and it is urged that the county
commissioners cooperate with Mr..
Pegg in keeping up the trail. The

traffic will be completed and dedicated

Nearly twenty-one million bushels
of corn is the estimate for North Da-
kota this year according to the report
of the United States Bureau of Mar
kets and Crop estimate. Just stop to
think of this for minute. If you had
told fellow from Iowa or any other
corn state that North Dakota would
be raising over twenty million bushels
of corn he would have laughed in your
face. But conditions have changed
in the past few years, and North Da-
kota is becoming a real corn state as
we'll as wheat state, and right here
is where the farmer may perhaps, help
himself by planting good acreage of
corn as we'll as potatoes to guard
against drought and other things that
might blight his wheat crop.

The leaguers in their appeal to the

in the coming election, by their gilt

US in mind of the story of the spider

they will help them to continue this
industrial ruin, but when they get into
office they suck the life blood out of
the poor unsophisticated fly-which
in this particular instance is the farm,

bulls that only bring about SIG per

Frederick C. Howe, former commits
sioner of immigration under the ad-
ministration of President Wilson, in
making a speech in favor of the league
in Fargo, made the statement that
the whole nation was watching the re-
call in North Dakota. The speaker is
right. The whole nation is watching
it and praying that it will be success
full. North Dakota has the reputation
of being the rube state in the whole
union whereas in years gone by it had
the reputation of being one of the best
if not the best, in the whole nation.
Today it has impaired credit, lost con.
fdence, and is utterly demoralized
from business standpoint. No Won
der every state in the union is watch
ing the recall and if that recall wins
out every state in the union will re-
ioice at the outcome. knowing that in
the death of socialism and industrial
depression in North Dakota sounds the
deathknell to like fantasies in other
states. The new constitution we have
with the sky the limit is the worst
kind of constitution and it will take
some years to remedy the bad effects
of it even if the recall is successful,
Vote yes on all the initiated laws and
amendments on October 28th and thus
