Governor Is Studying
 Sanctity of Contract
 With Mining Company

man appreciates this in his dealings and 1t is notable in the relations be- tween labor and capital
 We talk about prosperity. but prosperity Is of little account com pared to the fine sense of honor that used to prevail in the business world and the sanctity of contracts, either verbal or written. In fact, there can be no permanent prosperity without an enduring respect for con tracts; in other words, the maintenance of good faith.
 Behind every transaction in busi- ness Or social life there must be re- spect for the plighted word, or the whole structure of business and civilization will crumble Let us get back to the good old ways of our fathers, whose word was as good as their bond, and whose word was kept as a matter of course, regardless of it's temporary effect on their for tunes.
 We want prosperity but honor is more important than prosperity, and indeed real prosperity is impossible without it.'

FINE; CONCERT
GIVEN SUNDAY
University Oratorio and
Philharmonic Societies
in Program. {

In closing the. season for the Uni
versity Philharmonic society and the
University Oratorio society, Fred IA.
B~eidleman. the director, presented the
two ORGANIZATIONS in a Joint program,
at the Orpheum theater on Sunday
afternoon.
Assisting the soloists were Mrs. L.
G. Harrington, pianist; Miss Alice M.
Sandberg, soprano: Howard DeLong.
tenor. and Walter Bloch,..cellist. The
University WOmen's Glee club also
gave q number.
The program was an interesting
and varied one, comprising as it did
by three organizations, and
several individuals. Mr.. Beidleman
made a careful selection OF numbers
to be played by the three organiza-
done under his guidance. He has ex-
hibited good taste and good judgment
IN his conducting of the university
musical organizations during the year
just closing. and his addition to the
music department at the state univer-
.sity, where he is associated with E.
II. Wilcox, head of the department,
proves to have been a wise move.
The orchestra opened tho program
with AN overture from "Martha,"
which was smooth and consistently
good throughout. The Ballet suite.
La Source" of Delibes, with its four
movements, was given an
artistic reading.
In h orchestral section of the pro-
gram Walter Bloch appeared as SOLO
list. He played Goens' Romance Sans
Paroles" with good tone and individ-
ual Interpretation. and in response to
an encore gave Tschaikowsky's
Chant Sans PAROLE {,
YNh Uy0vnANs, T1~~B ~
gro Spiritual and, a'Scotch air, both
of which were much appreciated, and
as an encore the club gave Schubert's
charming Hedge Roses" Miss Helen
House was at the piano for the ac-
compartments.
Mrs. Harrington chose, for her num-
bers "valse Trieste by Sibelius, and
"Capricio Espangnolo' by Moszkow-
ski. She was in especially good form
on Sunday afternoon, and after her
two brilliant numbers she a called
besaues." No. 2. by Debussy.
AS q fitting conclusion to thep ro-
gram. the Oratorio society sang two
numbers. Tho first, 1.-THE Chambered
N~tuilus' by Fearis. vas sung with fine
erect. In this Miss Sandberg sang the
incidental soprano solo. She has q
voice that is full-toned and of excel
lent quality.
"Gallia" by aouod proved an in
|sptring number az given by the society.
Musically the selection is Of unusual
worth, and Mr.: Beidleman's chorus
gave It with artistic shading. Mr..
belongs tenor solo in this number
stood OF with fine effect, His voice
Is fitted for this type of music, and
he i~nterprets it s%killfully.
Olive Gooch Beidleman played the
accomplishments for the Oratorio So
ciety, and for Miss Sandberg and Mr..

Feast OF Weeks
To Be Observed
Here On Friday

The Feast OF Weeks, which inn He
brew is called Sha.buoth, falls this
year on Friday, June g.. It will be
observed in the local synaEogues on
that day and in orthodox c~pngregn-
tons n the following day.
Particular importance Is attached
to the celebration OF this day by the
fact that the reform Congregations
of this country set aside this festival
as Gonnrmation Day, wherein the
children Of the religious school who
have attained sufficient knowledge of
Jewish history, religion and biblical
literature are graduated or confirmed.
This confirmation ceremony pos
{sesses. q certain religious character
since 1t aims to impress the graduates
of the school with a sense Of obliga-
ton towards their religious heritage.
OF their " accord, however, they
express their convictions and pledge
themselves to uphold with loyalty
and devotion, the. covenant Of justice
and humanity: which they received
from their fathers.
Originally the Feast OF Weeks was
:th~e~occasion for one OF the three pill
grimages undertaken by the inhabit-
ants Of ancient Palestine to the temple
at Jerusalem. where they foregather-
ed to sing the praises of the Lord.
In those days the ceremonial con-
sisted in the offering Of the first fruits
and grains OF the field, in thanks
giving. for'the new crop that was be-
ing harvested.
This feast Of the first fruits, like
the other pilgrim festivals, was gradu-
ally transformed by the rabbits and in
vested with O more spiritual intent:
particularly after the Jewish people
began to link historical eventa with
