Beautiful Greek Drama Giuen By College
 Students

For all interested in classic drama, good acting and exquisite stage set ting d costumes, a treat Is In store on next Thursday evening at s:16, at He ward coliegs.
 The beautiful myttological comedy "Pygmalion and Galatea," will be pre- scented in the college chapel b,- the students of he expression department of the summer school, under the di- r. tion of Mrs. | 5. Sinclair, who is In charge of this department.
 This play is valuable from a liter ary and aesthetic standpoint and also provides general amusement and many good laughs.
 "Pygmalion and Galatea" Is found ed upon the well-known Greek legend of the sculptor, whose ork was un- eXcelled In Greece, and who, using Lis wife as his mod, carved a statue, Galatea, which was promo. need per feet in every detail by all art critics. The only thing the statue lacked was life. Pygmalion idolizes the statue and allows himself to become un- happy because he mas not power of bestowing life. He prays to the gods to give that which he cannot give.
 The play gees further than the legend in that it attempts to set forth some of the most probable conse quences which would attend the vivi- cation of the statue. Although the story is mythological, 1t possesses certain symbolical significance that applies to modern times.
 The statue, Galatea. on coming to life. Is greeted rapturously by Pyg malion. who instantly falls in love with her and thus starts domestic troubles. She Is sent to the home of his sister, but through her ignorance of the customs of this world. is mis- understood and brings arrangement to three couples. Pygmalion's wife has the power to punish him with utter blindness for the slightest act of faithlessness and when her teas- ousy is aroused. she calls on the gods to make him blind.
 Just how he recovers his sight and the couples are reunited Is most cleverly worked out.
 A small admission will be charged.

A coMMENDABLE ACT

Albert M. Wells, for several years
publisher of the Sank Centre Herald
prior to ten years ago when he sold
it to the present owner, has per-
formed a most commendable act for
the benefit of the city of Worthing-
ton where he is the successful pub
Usher of the Worthington Globe.
Mr.. Wells has accumulated a
reasonable amount of this worlds
goods and has set aside $4,000 in his
will for the benefit of the public Ii
brary of his city, the interest on the
same to be used for the purchase of
books which will teach the ideals of
Americanism and sound government
During the balance of his life Mr..
Wells will donate 500 each year to
the Worthington library for the pur-
chase of books of this character.
The gift is worthy of the man and
reflects noble spirit. While it is
not large sum, yet coming from a
country editor, it is proportionately
larger than any gift ever made by a
Carnegie or a Rockefeller.
Brother Wells is being justly COM
mended for his fine spirit of loyalty
to Americanism but his act is not
surprising to those who know him
best. His many Sank Centre friends
join the Herald in congratulating
him upon this most patriotic and gen.
erous act.

Big Traffic for Autumn
Forecast by G. N. Head
Crop Movement is Well Under Way
and Will be Handled Without
Congestion

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 24-Record
breaking freight traffic during the
fall months is expected by Ralph
Budd, president of the Greath North
ern Railway.
In statement today president
Budd announced virtual completion
of the Great Northern's $4,000, 900
improvement program for 1928.
Freight loadings have been heavy
and with the crop movement under
way and the usual harvest time ex-
pansion of business generally
throughout the northwest assured, a
good business is anticipated" he
said.
"The railroads of the northwest are
somewhat like those farmers who have
good crops, but because the prices of
farm products are lower relatively
than the prices of the things the
farmer buys, the net profits are
small The railroads of the notrh-
west likewise have rates only about
40 per cent higher than they were
ten years ago, while the coal they
burn, the taxes and the wages they
pay all cost twice as much as they
did 10 years ago, consequently in
creased tonnage means larger gross
revenues but this does not mean cor
respondingly larger net earnings be-
cause the cost of doing business is
much higher.
"There will be no shortage of cars

On Thursday the Senior High
School Assembly elected Isabel Con-
key as the first Editor in Chief Of
this column, for the school year. The
plan which will be carried out is one
that will require the work of the
entire High School body. Beginning
with the Senior Class each of the
classes will have an Editor-in-C Chief
who will serve for a six weeks per-
iod. The English classes, under which
department this work will be hand
led, will be divided into reportorial
stats, each staff serving one week.
The duty of the reporters lies in the
visiting of the several departments
and of getting news of interest and
Importance from them. By this new
system Of gathering and preparing
school news for publication the stu
dent body and faculty hope to make
the school notes a-feature of interest
to the public at large as well as the
school people.

THE DAIRY cows PRODUCTION

Grand Rapids erald-Review)
.Minnesota's dairy and food com.
missioner has recently issued some of.
fetal figures on dairying that are
good to read. We learn from the re-
port that Minnesota has total of
$40 creameries, 600 of which are CO.
operative enterprises. The gross in
come from these institutions for the
fiscal year totaled STOPS, 1882 /.
The value of Minnesota's butter out
put increased 81, 00O, 900 last year over
the record of 1921. The increased
production in ten years totaled $37,-
$4,000 80. Running expenses of
the creameries totaled $7,283,970
last year, leaving $64,086, 1885
that was paid to the farmer patrons.
The output of butter in Minnesota
exceeds that of all Canada.
The figures for butter are the
largest item in the returns of the
Minnesota dairy farm, but by no
means the only item, the commits
sioner pointed out. In addition,
there is the skim milk, the cheese,
the whole milk production, the dairy
calves and the butter and cream con-
sumed on the farm.
Cooperation and high class produc.
ton has made dairying in Minnesota
pay. The same results can be had in
all branches of farming when organ
ization and intelligent business meth
DDS are applied.

AN AFFLICTED PEOPLE

The people of the United States
are watching with interest the con-
fiict raging in Oklahoma between
Governor Walton and what is appar-
emily large majority of the people
of that state.
During the recent National editor
ial trip the Herald editor met up
with a number of newspapermen
prominent in Oklahoma and they
were greatly concerned over theil
governor. Walton was swept into of
flee on a-swave of radicalism and his
recent actions indicate that he is as
irresponsible and dangerous as the re.
ports from Oklahoma indicate.
Governor Walton processes to be
waging a war against the Klu Kluy
Klan and practically every crime that
has been committed in that state is
charged to the X. K. KS.
The Herald hasn't any sympathy
with any organization that finds il
necessary to don masks to enforce
their ideals of Americanism, as they
are no less than mob. If theil
cause is a just one and if things tina.
they stand for are right there need be
no necessity of hiding their faces
and any organization that works under
the cover of darkness is even more
dangerous to a commonwealth than
is an irresponsible chief executive OF
the Walton type.
The governor is piling up a big bill
of expense for his state as he has
called out the entire National Guard
to enforce his orders. There is much
bad feeling and the Herald will not
be surprised if considerable blood is
shed and many innocent will suffer
before the citizens of Oklahoma come
to- their senses and realize that q
right program can only be carried out
in an orderly manner.

/: HIGH SCHOOL NOTES ::
q y y y qnH q y u y y 4 II

Isabel Conkey, Editor in Chief
We invite your attention to the
definite steps which have been taken
for the prevention of contagious di-
seases among Public School children.
The cooperation of the parents and
school patrons will be solicited in the
matter. The following is the plan
adopted:
1. Any student who is absent
more than two days in succession is
to report to the nurse before return
ing to the classroom.
2. Report to the nurse immediate
ly if not feeling well. Headache,
sore throat, watery discharge from
eyes and nose, skin eruptions, nausea
or vomiting, lassitude, coughing, ETC.,
are symptoms of many of the COM
municable diseases. A great many of
these diseases are most highly con-
tagious during the onset, therefore
early detection is necessary to pre-
vent them spreading.
8. Any student who has recovered
from communicable disease or who
lives in house where communica-
BILE disease exists may not attend
school until written permit from
the health officer is given to the
school nurse.
a. Any student who is excluded
from school on account of illness
must report to the nurse upon return
ing.
5. Please follow these instructions
carefully and thereby aid in the con
troll of the communicable diseases.
