FINAL BAND CONCERT
NEXT SATURDAY MITE

The River Falls band will give its
final concert of the season in the
Arnlory Saturday evening. April Is.
An entirely new program is announc-
ed for this entertainment, and the
public is assured of delightful eve
ming.
AS heretofore, admission will be
but Doc and social hour viii be pro-
vided after the program.
In this connection it may be well
to explain the bands position regard
ing the furnishing of music for social
affairs in the community.
If the bardsmen complied. with
every request which local organiza-
tons have made for their services
this Spring it would certainly be an
aggravated case of "au play and no
work"-and no pay-for the music
ians, and in consequence it has been
found necessary to make the follow
ing explanation.
Every member of the band is en-
gagged in some occupation-merchant,
clerk, farmer. mechanic, bookkeeper,
etc, etc.-and cannot afford to leave
that work willy, nilly to furnish
music at the beck and call of any and
all, without suffering financial loss.
The band plans to give occasional
volunteer concerts, and will play on
Decoration Day, but in order to hold
the organization together it must re-
ceive compensation for services
rendered on general occasions, and a
schedule of prices for such services
is to be announced soon.
There are perhaps times when the
band could afford to donate its SER
vices-on occasions when the hours
do not conflict with work time, but to
do this for one and not for another
organization would no doubt create
hard feelings, and it has been de-
termined best to require q fee from
one and all for that class of service.
The band has earned its own way
so far, the players donating their
spare hours to practice and to the
concerts through which they have OBJ
tanned what little funds the treasury
boasts. They have certainly given
value received at these affairs, and
oanJ FaaI y,dat4nl opIyy - thos.a ,.-b,x
have assisted in staging the pro-
grams.
Director Smith, in behalf Of the
band, expresses the hope that the
public will appreciate and commend
this stand, and that, through general
cooperation the organization may de
velop to the credit and service of the
community.

Homestead Exemption Law should be

Gilbertson for the negative, was won
by the affirmative. The vote of the
judges was two for the affirmative
and one for the negative.
Prof. Mason, of the River Falls
high school, gave a splendid talk on
Schools" Prof. Mason thinks that
instead of trying to make all pupils
conform to one type of school,
schools should be made to offer
something to the different types of
pupils.
A crowd that comfortably filled
the church was in attendance. Lunch
was served at the close of the meet
ing.
