HEAR GOOD PROGRAM AT SUP
PER MEETING TUES. EVE.

"A very interesting program OF
talks, with several good musical num-
bers, followed the regular supper
meeting of the Redwood Falls Com
mercial Club at the armory last Tu-
esday evening. A two course menu
was served by the ladies of the Church
of Christ at six-thirty and the pro-
gram followed Immediately. Music
by the Bittrich Orchestra was an en-
joyabIe feature of the meeting, and
Mr.. Dahlberg led in the assembly
singing, with Mr.. Code at the piano.
The Hub Quartet composed of Messrs
Dahlberg, Starr, Anthony and Walter
sang group of much enjoyed selec-
tions.
A. d. McRae acted as the toast
master of the evening, his keen sense
of humor and his close acquaintance
ship with each of the speakers making
his introductions especially appropri-
ate and applicable. This was an en-
tirely new role for "Mac" and his
clever work elected many favorable
comments from the club members
present
The first speaker was j. M Wood
worth who came to Redwood Falls
about eleven months ago and SO was
well fitted to answer to the toast
Redwood Falls as See It." Mr..
Woodwork commented most favor
ably upon the impressions the scenic
beauty of the city and it's surround
ings had made on him, spoke f1atter-
ingly of the hospitality of the town,
of it's schools and churches and of
the business houses where, he stated,
it is possible to get goods of the same
quality as those found in the stores
9of st. Paul where he formerly lived
and for less money. Mr.. Woodwork
closed his talk with the statement
that he liked the town sufficiently we'll
to build home and to make all pre-
parations to spend the rest of his
life here. He, however, coveted for
his young son, who is just entering
school, the educational advantages
which the city has to offer, coupled
with better school building than the
present one.
!. Leon Luscher spoke most interest
= ngly of his recent trip abroad hum
:, sously giving as his subject "My

-..te sd Holland which he found
Modern than any of the other
yA1Ttries, Belgium where he found
vast strides had been made in recon
struction work, Germany where he
found the people much more prosper
Gus than he had been led to suppose,
and France where he found practically
no reconstruction work done, and
many, many factories running at full
blast turning out arms! He summed
up the situation between France and
Germany by saying that Germany is
apparently spending her time sulking
and France spending hers in hating
Germany The situation between the
two countries is acute and calls for
thoughtfulness on the part of all 9th
err nations and especially of the United
States.
