Arrived Home Yesterday From Sue
cessful Concert Tour Through
The. West.
Given a Great Reception by Our
People at Grand Opera
House Last Night.

The famous Luther College Con-
cert Band and their popular leader,
Prof. Carlo A. Sperati arrived home
yesterday afternoon from a long con-
cert tour through the west and up
into Canada. The band left DEBORAH
on June and enjoyed most sue
cessful concert tour, covering over
1000 miles in the round trip. Their
last stop Monday was at Usage.
The band arrived yesterday after
neon at three o'clock on the Mil
waukee, and an immense crowd of
friends were at the depot TO greet
them. The city was gayly decorated
with flags and welcome banners
stretched across the street, and the
welcome extended the band was
enthusiastic.
A testimonial concert was booked
for them on their return, and the
Grand was packed with their adj
mirers and friends last evening, and
one of the best concerts ever given
here was rendered by the band. A
welcome home address to Prof.
Sperati and his band was delivered
by Mayor Conover before the con-
cert opened.
Before the concert the band was
rendered a reception and supper at
the F. n. E. L. church by the young
ladies society of that church.
The Concert last night was a de-
lightful one, and the band never
played better, and from the opening
number Home Sweet Home" to the
last number on the program, the
audience sat spellbound at the high
class program rendered by these
popular young musicians.
The concert Melted around $500
for the band, which is just little
reminder of the esteem in which
the band is held by our people. The
have spread the name and fame of
DEBORAH and Luther College over
many miles Of our country this year
and have made the Luther College
Band a household word in many
homes thousands Of miles from here.

STELzER RESIGNS
 AS SECRETARY IF
 CORPORATION COMM.

Refusing. as he stated it to 'fbe the goat" for the corporation commission, A E. Stelzer yesterday rendered his resignation as it's secretary.
 While neither the commission nor MT Stelzer would make any complete statement, the differences between them became known before the day was over and the matter freely dis cussed at the state house and on the streets.
 A member of the commission, in dis cussing the situation yesterday, ssld that MT. Stelzer did not comply with the requirements of the commission and resigned" He added that the res ignation was entirely voluntary on his part"
 It vSs stated by MT. Stelzer that he was not asked to resign. but was or fered a subordinate position in one of the departments over which he had su- pervision for two years. He did not "sleep over the matter. but promptly resigned. The commission also lost no time. and immediately appointed Stanley Williamson, chief clerk of the investment department as its secre- tary.
 The former secretary first joined the official family as deputy treas urer under David F. Johnson Later when MT Johnson was elected to the commission. he secured Mr. Stelzei the position of secretary
 Mir. Stelzer would not discuss tht matter with his friends yesterday saying that his many years in stat' service made it impossible for him t' give out any state business. In hii statement to the press he said: '-The commission attempted to plac' the blame at the door of the secretar! l for recent occurrences and offered m' a subordinate position in one of th' departments of the commission owe
 which I had supervision for more thai ! two years past. Of course l could no accept this offer for reasons that ar obvious As the matter is relative i purely state business, l prefer not [ air the details fin the newspaper: 1 Those familiar with conditions in tn 1 commission, and who have known m l and my work during the past fou i years as deputy state treasurer and a secretary to the corporation commis 1 sion, approve my action in tenderin my resigna ton. l have made no plan

THE MEANING OF EASTER
All religions have had some sort of Easter.

All religions have had some sort of Easter.
 is the of religion that the emphasis placed the Spirit The deepest expression of this perhaps the Hindu doctrine of Maya which IS that all material substance is Iluson and the reality lies behlnd
 AS develops, the Ideal assumes more and more importance and all visible objects become merely symbols
 The universe becomes vast pageant nenaeo to n,nt portant the great spiritual truths
 The significant phase of Nature IS the coming of Spring, the return of life to the dead landscape
 What this symbolzes is apparent. For we are daily failing Disappontments delusions, mistakes, and dis constant And the gst of lie IS to re sst hese them and rise from them to renewed energy.
 Every night brings tiredness and fes powers sink de- feated to slumber And every morning IS resurrecon From somewhere in the land of sleep has come new tide of force.
 The spirit fact which this symbolize is that out of the souls defeat somehow springs new fountain of life and
 No one go uninterruptedly being happy, sue cessful, good.
 Rhythm is universal with all forces, spiritual Such thing a continuous force IS unknown Tn Ma ture All energy operates In waves advancing and re cedng.
 So we progress whether in morals education, not like flying sparrow, but like walking man, and walk ing has been defined "a series of falls forward" When born do not live straight on till we die but die every twentyfour hours, have many deaths there nights and many resurrecons as mornings.
 The Spring typfies this And Easter is the highest spiritual apprehension of Spring.
 It means there is failure, for defeat is merely the prelude to success discord In music introduces and prepares for harmony
 It means nothing is final there is always another chapter.
 It means that as Olive Schreiner said 'it is never | too late for the soul of man.
 It that rotng mould is not the last word fer it is only to make seeds Sprout.
 It the last filthy not in vain, for it manured the world for the growth of World Govern ment. T It means, Maeerinck wrote that ito the hero there is no tragedy"
 It means that Life Love, Light, and Joy, there the Eternals and evil is but the rhythmic marks of prog reSS It means that Life, Love Light, and Joy, these must come resurgenee of Life.
