Here Next Mon.
LECTURE COURSE OPENS WITH
ENTERTAINMENT GIVEN BY
TWO CLEVER GIRLS.

The opening number of the Red
wood Falls lecture course will be given
at the armory next Monday evening,
October 22nd, when the Anderson
Brogan Duo makes its appearance.
This number introduces course which
the committee in charge believes is
one Of the strongest course the city
has had in several years, equally if
not exceeding the especially strong
course presented last season.
The program Monday evening will
be given by Miss Gladys Anderson
and Miss Lucille Brogan. Miss And
erson is singer, pianist and imper-
senator capable of giving an entire
and satisfactory program all by her
self. However, in the Monday even
ing entertainment she is only one
half of the talent, Miss Brogan's sing
ing and harp music making a very
pleasing variety to Miss Anderson's
numbers. Together they furnish
many delightful duets and talk-songs
which are delightful if the very fat
tering press notices from the many
towns in which they have entertained
are to be credited.
Season tickets for the course are
now on sale at Lauterbach Brothers
and at the Redwood Grocery Com.
pany. Reservations may be made al
he Lauterbach store Saturday or Mon
day. Season tickets offer very mar.
ked saving on the entire course ano
should be purchased by all who ap.
preciate the best things in the way
of music, lecture and literary enter
tainment.

FOR FINAL DISTRICT
CONTEST.

Basket ball enthusiasts will be
pleased to learn that the winning
teams in the four SUBJ districts in this
district will contest in tournament
in the Armory in this city on March

Decided Matter at MankatO.
At the meeting of the Southwestern
Minnesota Educational association at
Mankato the superintendents of the
various high schools entering teams
in this district held a conference and
decided that New Ulm was the place
to hold the district tournament.
The floor at the Armory is one of
the best in the state and without ques-
tion the best in this district. This
was one of the deciding factors in
New Ulm securing the tournament.
Basket ball enthusiasts from all over
this part of the state will be here to
witness the teams Ego" in this elm
ination, and some excellent contests
will be staged.
The district is divided into four
sub-districts. There are three teams
in each division.

lows: New Ulm district-New Ulm,
Comfrey and Lamberton. Redwood
Falls district-Redwood Falls, Sleepy
Eye and Tracy. Marshall district
Marshall, Minneota and Candy. Tyler
district-Tyler, Ivanhoe and Lake
Benton.
The winning team in each of the
four sub-districts named above, will
represent the district in the district
tournament here. That means that
four teams will be entered. Two
elimination games will be played and
then the winning teams in these two
contests will stage the final game.
1t is expected that New Ulm will
be one of the runner-ups in this dis
trict, as she has had one of the best
basket ball teams in this part of the
state for years.
Superintendent Arnold Gloor of the
New Ulm high school, together with
the faculty and student body, are
elated over the fact that Mr.. Gloor's
offer of the Armory in New Ulm as a
neutral floor upon which to hold the
district tournament was chosen at the
Mankato conference.
Sixteen Districts in State.
The state is divided into sixteen
districts and the champion team in
each district will be entered in the
state tournament at Minneapolis.
The games will be played at the
ArmOry.-New Ulm Journal.

"A Pair of Skies"
Coming to Town
HIGH SCHOOL CAST TO PRESENT
COMEDY FOR ATHLETIC
BENEFIT.

On Friday evening, November 16,
a group of High School players will
produce "a Pair of Skies" under the
direction of Mr.. Ralph P. Nelson. The
play is being given for two reasons,
first, the benefit of the work being
done for the play itself and second,
the play is being produced as an ath-
letic benefit.
"a Pair of Sixes", is very inter-
esting story of American business
life. Two enterprising young bust
ness men, Mr.. George B. Nettleton
and Mr.. T. Boggs Johns are partners
in "The Eureka Digestive Pill Com
pany". Both claim the honor of be-
ing responsible for the success of the
concern. Nettleton has made the pill
while T. Boggs Johns invented the
purple coloring. Their partnership
is just one round of squabbles. The
office boy Jimmy and the stenograph-
er Sally Parker, with the bookkeeper
Krone, do not help matters out a bit.
Tony Toler, their prize salesman, en-
ters the scene but leaves in a grand
huff with Mr.. Applegate, a prospec-
tive customer. Mrs. Nettleton and
Florence Cole help mix more trouble
and finally the partners are coerced
into an agreement by their friend Mr.
Vanderbilt, a lawyer. The winner
will run the business for year the
loser serving as butler for year
The story then runs merrily on
Needless to say-all ends we'll after a
considerable number Of amusing adj
ventures.
The following compose the cast;
Virginia Smith, Gladys Pearson
Loretta Kolbet, Margaret Jean Lar
son, Ralph Nelson, George Johnson
Clifford Reynolds, Melvin Campbell
Theodore Ahrens, Gordon Cole and
Jack Wilson. Practice has been 60
ing on this week and the play is be-
ginning to round into form. The
players have been chosen from the
High School at large and are earnest
ly striving to make this play the best
ever.
The play is being produced by spec
ial permission of Sammuel French OF
New York. It was exceedingly sue
cessful on the professional stage. An
evening of pleasure is promised.
Athletics are an absolute necessity
in any school for the physical powers
must be developed as well as the men,
tai. The present athletic year was
started with 80 cents in the strong
box. Much needed equipment was
purchased for football; basketball
equipment for the boys and for the
girls is needed. A play is the logical
solution of the financial difficulty.

Springfield Bows
to Redwood Team
LEGION SHOWS GOOD FORM AND
HAS LOTS OF FIGHT;
SCORE TO 0.

Last Sunday afternoon on the local
gridiron the Redwood Legion beat
the heavy Springfield outfit to the
tune of z to O. The game was fast
and interesting from start to finish,
Springfield with heavy and well
coached outfit came over here with
the intention of winning and Kept
playing to win until the final whistle
blew. Springfield has hard outflt
this year and it was only because
Redwood was better and had more
fight that they were able to put it
over.
The first quarter both teams play
ed about even. Redwood was simply
determined to win, however and
wouldn't be over done. In the second
quarter Redwood began to outplay
Springfield and plowed right up the
field, with touchdown looming be-
fore them and making their downs
right along; it seemed sure that they
would score. When within about
eight yards of touchdown and every
thing going fine the whistle blew fol-
the half.
The second half Redwood players
made up their minds to put it over
and they did. The third quarter both
teams had real fighting for what they
got and Springfield found out they
couldn't get very much. In the last
quarter Redwood got the ball and
toured right up the field for touch
down. Try for point after touchdown
was successful making the score Z to
0 in Redwood's favor.
Springfield then chose to receive
and were nailed in their tracks on the

Clinic Held Here
October 18th
PHYSICIAN TO EXAMINE ALL
CHILDREN FREE OF
CHARGE.

Preparations are being made fo,
an Infants and Childrens Clinic to be
held in the Normal Training room at
the grade school building on October
2Ith under the auspices of the County
Public Health Association. The clinic
will begin at nine o'clock in the morn
ing and continue until four-thirtv in
the afternoon, and will be conducted
by doctor who specializes in chill
drens diseases. 1t is free to everyone
all expenses in connection with il
will be paid from funds derived from
the sale of Christmas Seals.
The clinic is scientific in nature and
the doctor is there for the purpose
OF discovering physical imperfections
and to give advice concerning them
so that they can be corrected before
they become permanent defects. The
doctor will tell each mother the ex-
act condition of her child, suggest the
diet, make the diagnosis and leave
to the parents the choice of any ply
sician they may desire to do any pre-
scribing or give the treatment neces-
sary for the child.
The clinician will also examine chill
dren of school age, if accompanied by
their parents. The child's weight for
his height and age is the best index
of his general health. If your boys
or girls are below the standard weight
for their height and age, bring them
to the Infants and Childrens Clinic
and hear the physician explain what
each particular child must do to bring
up his weight and grow to be strong
and healthy. 1t will cost you nothing
to find out what is troubling your
child, and an examination in time
may prevent a great deal of future
trouble.
Take advantage of this excellent
opportunity of having your children
examined free. Remember it is
through the sale of Christmas Seals
that the clinic is made possible.
