SONG RECITAL

Lancaster has again had the oppor-
tunity of enjoying a musical program
of unusual excellence.
Because of unfavorable weather it
was small, though very appreciative
audience that greeted Clarence w.
howe, tenor, formerly of this city, as
sisted by Robert Yale Smith, compos-
er-pianist, of Chicago at the Grant
land last Tuesday evening.
Despite the size of their audience
these gentlemen responded generously
to repeated encores and their exquisite
handling of varied but remarkably
well balanced program was a revela-
ton to their many friends, old and
new.
Mr.. Howe has voice of exceptional
quality and remarkable range. He
sings with ease and confidence that
is inspiring and he exhibits very
fine sense of values. His rendition of
the group of Negro Spirituals-our
only folk-songs-was particularly
happy, sympathetic and effective, while
his Interpretation of the more serious
numbers of his program bespoke an
artist of far more than ordinary abil-
ity.
Robert Yale Smith, previously I'M
known here, proved himself to be not
only a very accomplished pianist but
most excellent accompanist and a
composer of great promise and merit.
The trio of songs by this composer,
as rendered by Mr.. Howe, were among
those which met with the warmesC
approval and appreciation of their
audience.
It is seldom that this community
has the opportunity of hearing such
a finished, pleasing and excellent pro-
gram as that of Tuesday evening"

Report for November

Of the 474 cows tested rs were dry.

1b. class.
During this month IL T. B. COWS
were disposed of also three unproft-
able ones for beef. Eight head were
sold for dairy purposes.
During the month a carload of oil
meal was received and distributed
among the members of this c. T. A.
and Lancaster-Mt. Hope The price
was only $41.50 per ton, saving the
members around $40 per ton at the
present local price of oil meal. This
oil meal was ordered Several months
ago when oil meal was lower in price.
This is one of the many things that
one can benefit by belonging to a To-
cal organization such as a C. T. A.
Some of the foresighted members
are also feeding $2150 per ton bran.
This is nearly one third less than the
present price

To be "shut in" is one of life's
tragedies, because to be shut in
is to be shut off from the life
about us. There are thousands
who live shut-in lives-those
who are crippled, or i'll, or old
those mothers and fathers whose
work leaves them little time or
energy to live the worlds life.
Many of these are your friends.
Some may be in your family.
You love them and want to do
for them the things that will ex-
pand and brighten their lives.
There need be no ''shut-ins"
any more. Radio opens their
door. Open up life to these shut
ms who are friends of yours.
Make them a gift this Christmas
that will bring the world of life
to them where they lie or sit. A

accomplish this and accomplish
it wonderfully. It offers you the

great point about the De Forest

to buy. You can use it five min

lies in the fact that you can move

was roundly appiauded.
Big Saving Made
That state expenditures have been
cut more than Sl.OO0.O00 in the last
biennium was the statement made BY
Governor Moore. OF this amount. the
legislature appropriated SS40.49o less
than had the preceding legislature.
An additional $5S0.Ooo cut resulted
from the difference asked from tax
payers when the 9 mill highway levy
was abolished but an educational levy
OF three-cighihs mills passed. These

that these men are excellent examples

AT Night.

Burglars broke into the Harmon

ing the night last Thursday and rified
two cash registers. About SIS in
currency was stolen. Checks were
not disturbed nor was any merchan-
disc taken. so far as could be deter
mined Friday morning following the
robbery. Efforts of the thieves to
break into the largest cash register
at the store failed. only one cash
drawer in this machine being opened.
1t yielded only small returns to the
burglars while other drawers con-
tanned considerable cash.
Belief is expressed that the job was
the work of amateurs, probably
youths. While considerable skill was
displayed in breaking the lock on the
front door by which entrance to the
building was gained, no professional
or experienced burglar would have
failed to rifle the large cash register.

The hour OF the crime could not
be determined. 1t was not discovered
until Friday morning when the place
of business was opened for the day :
