MUSICALE WAS
WELL ATTENDED

A large and appreciative audience at
tended the musicale given at the high
school auditorium last Friday evening.
at which time F. ]. Brown, Miss
Emily Jo Robertson and Miss Angeline
Hickey gave a very creditable enter
tainment.
The numbers by Mr.. Brown includ-
ed classical, semi-classical and popu-
lar songs and were rendered In pro-
fessional style. Mr.. Brown has a
splendid tenor voice and his singing
was greatly enjoyed. =
Miss Emily 10 Robertson gave sew
eral piano selections and her technic
as well as her Interpretation was
faultless. She was heartily encoreu
and her playing was thoroughly ap-'
preciated.
Miss Angeline Hickey. a pupil Of
the Douglas county high school. gave
several readings and the splendid
manner in which the young lady gave
her renditions brought forth a burst
of applause. Miss Hickey has con-
siderable natural dramatic ability and
is equally capable in lighter readings.
as was proven Friday night.
In recent years people of this Sec
ton attended Chatauqua programs that
did not excel the program given by
the trio of local people last Friday
night and it is indeed gratifying to
learn that such excellent talent IL
to be found in this community.

MONO JUDGE IS
LOSANCELESPOET

Following is one of the calculating
tructations INDUCED in by our local
Judge, p. r. Parker, who Is and has
been holding court in the city of Los
Angeles for several months, says the
Bridgeport Chronicle.
Judge Pat Parker, of Mono county,
is as unexpected as he Is surprising.
He has been holding court in this
county some time but not until yes
terday was 1t dreamed that he is a
poet. He is the kind Of poet who
does not necessarily write poetry, but
he quotes 1t and from the best au-
thors. He is one of the very few
poetry loving judges on the bench in
this state.
Judge Parker imbibed poetry with
the mountains and dells surrounding
Bridgeport, his native heath.
You cannot live in Bridgeport and
not love poetry" he said yesterday.
Eyes, sir" You have just got to un-
burden and mount Begasus. When
you look at those snow-caped peaks; |;
when you watch the clear, green
water cavorting down the ravines !;
when you gaze at the eagle; the hawk,
or the gigantic Ichthyornis soaring
in the bluue sky, the poetry gushes
from you. Yes, sir. That's why there
is no crime in Mono county The
people are poetical, A poet does not
get out and rob and steal or flirt with
another mans wife. No, sir. His
eye, il he lives In Mono county, is
filled with the beauty of nature, and
when your mind, as well, becomes
brimful of nature, you are pure as the
lily"
But what about the report that you
have no churches or ministers of the
gospel in Mono county?" he was
asked.
There you are; that elinches my
argument, Poetry" he replied. ut is
true we have no churches. Once in a
while minister comes into Bridge
port and we welcome him with out
stretched hand. We supply him a
place to hold forth and we attend-at
least | know some do-but when you
are full of poetry there is no place
for the devil to creep in. We read
the bible; we love our neighbor as
ourself. That's our religion, that
epitomizes it,
Well. why don't you have a church
and an established minister"
There are only 999 persons in
Mono county. A minister would
starve to death on the pay" he said.
You mean to say" asked the inter-
viewer after the judge had paused in
his poetic outburst, that you have the
lchthyornis in Mono county?"
"Ichthyornis. Sure. But we call it
turkey buzzard," he answered with a
smile.

Real Test Of Public serxlee.

been further stated that she will
remit her portion of the German
Preparations. This, it is under-
stood, is conditional upon finan-
cial and other arrangements be-
inc, made whereby Germany may
ne enabled to weather the storm
and avoid a total collapse. Eng
land knows that there can be
no European restoration with
anarchy prevailing in Germany.
Many months AGO, and more re-
entity, it was suggested by Flu
rope that all Of the allied gov
ernments cancel their war debts
to each other. This was very
properly opposed by the press
and people Of the United States
for the simple reason that a pre-,
ponderance of the burden of
cancellation would have fallen
upon this country. But Ii
France, Italy and the other ma
lions Of the conquering group
meet England in the same spirit,
and take the action that is re
quired to restore the stability of
the world, then it would be quite
proper for our government to
take similar action in no far as
justice will sanction. We can
not permit ourselves to be charg-
ed with dog in the manager at
titude, neither can we be tempt
ed to pull other peoples chest
nuts out of the fire. We can
afford to remit as much, dollar
for dollar, as any other govern
ment, all conditions being equal.
More than this Europe can not
in justice ask.

The great task of legislation
today is to ascertain how one

we fulfilling the pledges Are
we lifting the burden? The

STEADY THE SHIP.

Violence, unless it is promptly
suppressed and the perpetrator
properly punished, leads to NOR
violence.
More violence leads to an
archy. Anarchy breeds revolu-
ton. Revolution destroys gov
ernments and paralyzes indus
try
There is no occasion for rev
olution in this country, and
there is no excuse for violence.
Organization on the part of
the laboring classes is essential
to their well being. Without it
they would be ground down by
capital to starvation wages, and
would be without the means to
bring their families up in the
proper manner and educate them
for useful careers in the world.
But no organization, whether of
labor or capital, is greater than
our country and its laws. Those
laws were made to be obeyed by
all people, and no one is immune
from their application.
No public official can expect
to remain in office long with
out the confidence of the people,
and that confidence endures on
ly through fair and impartial
enforcement of the law.
No organization can expect to
remain in the confidence or SYM
pathv of the people unless its
membership respects and obeys
the laws under which all of the
people are required to live. IF
the sane and Law abiding ele-
ment of an organization is pow
erless to prevents acts Of law
lessness or violence in their con-
tinual disputes, then the consti-
tuted authorities should put an
end to it without further ado.
1t requires years of care and
training to produce an adult
life, and much toll and expense
to create valuable property.
Neither should be destroyed at
the whim Of an irresponsible and
lawless fanatic. Let the law be
enforced against both parties to
q dispute. Justice knows Meth
err friend nor foe.
