PEOPLES LECTURE COURSE

The most popular number of the
lecture course was given Monday
evening by the National Male Quar-
tet. The individuals are well fitted to
their parts and their program has
such variety that it is sure to delight
everybody. The opener was the heavy
number of Dudley Bucks son The
Sea-" The harmony is so close in this
piece that the unframed musician
is apt to think he detects a discod.
Not so, it is the peculiar and intricate
style of Dudley Buck, the delight
of the trained vocalist. The National
Quartet rendered it perfectly. Other
nrmhers followed in great variety
and everybody was happy. Mr.. Cox.
the comedian, was master in every
thing he undertook The National
Male Quartet would have a full house
if they ever come to River Falls
again.

APPRECIATION OF
TUESDAY CLUB

The Tuesday Club of River Falls
is very live organization.
Perhaps everybody does not rea-
lie this, and perhaps it is little
late to speak of our Christmas party,
given December 20, at the home of
our president, Mrs. j. S. Wadsworth,
to show you how live we sometimes
are. The house was prettily decorat
ed in red and white, the tables were
set for more than forty guests.
Forty were present, including one
from out of town, Mrs. r. P. Rainey
of Black River Falls.
We have neither time nor space to
tell of the splendid menu, nor how
much of it was consumed.
After the banquet, the evening was
pleasantly spent with music, games
and stories. The spirit of Christmas
was certainly manifest in the way
everyone seemed willing to serve in
anyway to add enjoyment.
Thanks and much credit are due
Mr.. and Mrs. Wadsworth for their
hospitality and our pleasant even
ing. *""

MINNESOTA BANKS WARNED;
NEIGHBORS NOT NOTIFIED

In its write-up of the recent Maid
en- Rock bank burglary the Spring
Valley Sun says:
A feature of the affair that makes
Mr.. Carpenter president of the
Maiden Rock bank) angry is the fact
that every bank in Minnesota knew
the robbery was coming; Red Wing
had double police on duty that night
Yet not a bank in Wisconsin even
within the danger zone, was notified.
The acetylene outfit was stolen in
st. Paul the day beforehand of
course the police knew what that
meant, and notified all banks in their
own state that some bank would be
robbed within forty-eight hours.
Had Mr.. Carpenter known it, there
would have been some funerals in
yegg circles.
Towns situated like Maiden Rock
are particularly liable to raids; Mr..
Carpenter has been expecting and
is prepared for a raid on the bank it.
self; had Minnesota police been at
all neighborly he would have rid them
of about three of the undesirable citi-
zens who give the Twin Cities such
a bad name.

High School Notes

Friday evening, January 10. was a
disastrous one for the River Falls
High School basket ball team They
journeyed to the cyclone city, New
Richmond, and were defeated in
their second conference game % TO
z. AS the score indicates, River Falls
was completely outplayed; they lack
ed the drive and polish which should
characterize winning team. The
first half ended II to in New Rich
mond's favor but during the last half
New Richmond opened up on long
shots which very seldom missed the
goal. The Midget" Lynch brothers
at forwards for New Richmond play
ed stellar game and most of the
New Richmond baskets were made
from the center of the floor.
The High School is not in the least
disappointed over the New Richmond
defeat. The same teams play a. Xiv
er Falls Feb. %, and River Falls ex-
poets to turn the tables at that time.
This Friday evening, Jan. Is, the
High Shcool plays the fast profess
sional Staples Chivroiet ream of st.
Paul. The team is coached by Harry
Gamons of st. Paul, who most people
remember as the coach of the Hotel
Sherman team. 1t will be an inter
esting game from start to finish, and
will give people a chance to see Ga
mons team in action again, one of
the fastest teams in st. Paul. The
Seniors will give dance after the
game. Back your high school by at
tending the game January 26, Fri
day.
The team won from Ellsworth
High School team, Tuesday, Jan. %,
by a large score, the game ended 40
TOT.
Tuesday afternoon the Junior High
Schools of the Normal and High
School entertained very large au-
dience at debate in the H. S. assem-
bly, room. The question they debated
was, Resolved: That moving pictures
are more detrimental than BENEFICIAL
to society. The Normal upheld the
affirmative side of the question and
the High School the negative.
The affirmative team was composed
of Sharles Shepard, Burton Karges,
and William Hunt.
The negative team was Donald
Smith, Esther Bailey, and Dale Jen-
son.
Much credit can be given to boti.
teams, and to each individual The
boys on each team showed a good sup
ply of pep and showed they had
good grasp of the subject. They held
the attention of their audience to the
last minute and too much cannot be
said concerning their delivery of the
speeches. There were three judges
appointed to decide the contest and
the decision was two to one in favor
of the affirmative.

TO BUILD STEEL BRIDGE

At its meeting last Thursday even
ing the City Council decided in favor
of steel bridge to replace the pre-
sent structure over the South Fork
al S. Main street.
A concrete bridge was planned, but
the cost as shown in various bids sub
mitted, appears to be prohibitive.
The contract has been let to the
Minneapolis Bridge Co. on their bid of
$16,980, the bridge to be completed
not later than August Is, 1923.
The bids and action on same are de
tailed in the Council Proceedings

License RECIPROCITY

The theory Of automobile license
rec;nrocity as between the different
sovnreirn States is not only sound in
theory but advisable. As between
MARYLAND and the District of Column
b;a the case is entirely different, as
REPRESENTATIVE Curry, Of California
wonld do well to note before pressing
tbe Federal reciprocity Legislation
which he has in mind. ,,;a..
When Washington automobillsts
,oove the confines of the District they
ride ON the good roads OF Maryland
,,,nch more than the bad roads OF Vlr-
ninia MI. Curry observes that with
tba execution of each other. Maryland
and the District of Columbia have
co CON, reciprocity" There is a rea-
con son fo rthat exception. 1t lies IN the
flood of motor traffic from Washing
ron TO which the roads of Marylano
are subjected. How one-sided the reel
nrocity arrangement would be IS
nointed out by State Roads Commas
sioner Mackall, who reminds us taa1
the District has about twenty miles
of roads ,as against Maryland two
thousand.

HOW ONE MAN WON

VolumlnouS books are written Tell
ing yonng men how they can succeed
in business. But the biographies OF
successful business men tell just as
much. The fellow who studies how a
man like John Wanamaker, whose
death has just caused deep regret,
attained his position in the business
world, will get & pretty good idea as
to what arc the foundations of sue
cess.
Mr.. Wanamaker based his amazing
results as a retail merchant principal
ly on two ideas: First, fair treat
ment fer the public; second, liberal ad-
vertising. The keynote of his whole
career is found in the story of what
he did with the receipts of his first
business day as clothing dealer. Out
of the S24.67 he had taken in on that
day, ne set aside 81 esnts 20 make
change with and spent the $1,000 IN
advertising. Thereby he manifested
the principles of initiative through
which any man who sells good goods
can make success Of business.-Cul-
