$ AmaZOns'' Will Be
Playmakers' Second
Annual Production

THE Amazons," by Arthur Wing
Pinero, to be presented ,by the Julia
Marlowe Chapter of the Junior Play
makers of the Bismarck high school
on February IL at the City Auditor
lun, is the second annual play to be
staged by the organization. Friends
OF the school will remember the
Charm School" given at the audi.
forum last year.
North Dakota, originated. the idea
of forming at its state universities a
,Playmaker organization with the pur.
pose of producing plays, and Of at
tanning some degree Of dramatic an
preciation. Under the guidance Of
the chapter At Grand Forks. Junior
organizations were established IN Ger.
tain qualified high schools of the
state. Bismarck received its charter
in 1924 and was given the name of
the Julia Marlowe chapter.
One of the requirements of each
chapter is that it. produce at least
one full evening play annually. Last
year the Charm School, was given
with marked success.
Use OF Proceeds
The proceeds Of the annual play 60
toward sending play cast to the
annual PlAymaker contest in Grand
Forkss held during high school week
in the spring, and Toward buying
equipmeht for the stage In the high
school auditorium. From the pro-
cceds OF last years production a east
was sent TO Grand Forks, new cur
tain M9s purchased for the school
stare, flats were made and makeup
kit bought. This year it is hoped
tint the PlAymakers will. be sable
again to send = cast to Grand Forks
and 70 continue 70 purchase stage
fittings.

real. sfithtinG flccts and real defense
u. II came to another. war.
President Coolidge might think Of
that being OF an economical turn.
Certain interests connected with
power companies that want to con-
troll water power carry on systema-
tic Misrepresentation rs regards the
value of irrigation.
Demand for irrigatiOn influences
votes for government control. Hence
the attack on the irrigation, destined
to redeem millions Of acres, the most
fertile in the world, and to add tens
of billions to the wealth of the ma
ton.
Farmers know that even where it
rains irrigation can improve crop
values.
It is shown that in favorable To-
calities, under irrigation, two crops
of potatoes can be raised in one
season, instead Of one, in addition
to doubling the size Of the crop. A
seasons irrigstion more than doubles
it's value by bringing in the first
crop much earlier and getting higher
prices for earlier potatoes.
This column has already described
the alfalfa ranch of the Hodge Broth
crs ON che Arizona desert where rain
rarely falls.
The land there year in and year
out produces seven CROPS of alfalfa
per year under irrigation, more than
nine tons to the acre. The total cost
Of electric current for irrigating $50
tons worth $28 a ton is $3.50. Any
farmer knows the profit in that kind
of farming.

INDIANS WAY,
(. OF HUNTING
BUFFALO TOLD
jamestown Historian Gives
Information Obtained Di-
rect From Redmen

Jamestown. N. H., Feb. 8.-tP)---
How the Indians used to stage great
buffalo hunts near Bone Hill creek
in this vicinity when dozens of the
big beasts were trapped and slain, is
told by Dana Wright, jamestown his
torian, who obtained his information
direct from tho old tribcsmcn.
"They had logs with splintcrcd
limbs, lying ut the foot of the steep
bluffs" said. Mr.. Wright. "Abovc
was a long fence of posts on which
were hung old robes to serve rs scare
crows. The buffalo were STAN pcded
into this line Of posts and rs they
SHE'D away from the imaginary dan
ger they were crowded over the steep
bluffs. Falling on the logs many
were crippled and became easy prey
for the Indians.
Bones Give Locality Name
"The great number of buffalo
killed here and butchered to make
pemmican and winter supplies re-
suited in great heaps of bones from
which the locality was named. Some
Of these bones were arranged in odd
shaped designs.
There is no conspicuous hill in the
vicinity of Bone Hill creek for which
It could have been named, but even
when the white settlers came SO many
skeletons remained that the name
was naturally applied by them. They
did not know that it was already so
named by the Indians nearly 100
years ago, and possibly longer.
1.-THE great buffalo herds provided
the Indians with q comfortable liv-
ing and the red men obtained wood
for their simple Implements, fuel and
homes from the pleasant groves along
the Missouri and the James river"

Recipients Urged To Get Busy"
One of the anonymous circulars,
now in Secretary Davis possession
and reported as having been distrib-
uted from air service headquarters,
declares there must be more "edu-
cational work" in congress, and urges
recipients of tho circulars to get
busy" with senators and representa-
tives in the interest Of a separate air
corps.
War department officials are con-
sidering this language in the light
of the presidents declaration of pref
udice when he approved the Mitchell
court-martial findings.
"Thc theory of government" said
the president, "implies that every Of
ficial, so long as he retains office,
shall purport himself with respect
toward his superiors. This is cspe-
cially true of those in the military
service. Unless this rule is applied
there can be no discipline in the
army and navy, without which these
two forces would not only be without
value as a means Of defense, but
would become actually menace to
society. Discipline is the whole basis
of military training"

Germany Surprised at State.
ment-May Affect En-
try Into League

Berlin, Feb. 8.---L3Y--Thcrc is much
perturbation and no little ill-fccling
IN Germany over the surprise speech
delivered Saturday in the chamber
OF deputies in Rome by Premier Mus
sOlini with regard to the anti-ltalian
campaign alleged TO have been start
cd ~ Germans in the upper Adigc.
although tho German government
has made no reply pending receipt Of
the text of the speech. the .uttcranccs
OF Mussolini arc considered the
strongest by any statesmen since the
war toward country with which his
country lis at peace.
Mussolinfs address is regarded az
having been occasiOncd by n recent
surprise of DIR. Held. the militant
Bavarian premier, who requested all
good Germans to help their follow
countryncn in southern Tyrol. which
was awarded to Italy by the treaty
of St. Gcrmain.
Remarks Bring Surprise
Particular attention is being paid to
Mussolini's threat. after characterize

loss of one. and with . whole set of
teeth for the loss Of one TOOTH" His
remark that "fascist Italy can. il ne
cessary, carry further beyond it's tri-
color. but never lower it" is regarded
in some quarters as direct threat,
that the Italians may move further
into Austrian territory. If such a
step should be considered necessary,
Mussolini at the time was referring
to the Italian position at the Bremen
pass. which is on the Austro-Italian
frontier and is the shortest route
from central Germany into Italy.
Newspapers Comment
The perturbation here has been in
creased by the receipts of comment
from the Italian newspapers. some of
which assert that Mussolini's words
were almost equivalent to a dcclara-
ton Of war against Germany.
A move to recall the Italian am
bassador is interpreted locally as an
expression of Italy's distrust of Ger
many and Mussolini's challenge is
viewed as an inauspicious omen fo,
Germany's entry into the League Of
Nations.

cert of the Rhondda Welsh male
chorus, which is~to be heard at the
city auditorium on Thursday, Feb
ruary Is, will begin Wednesday
morning. The Kiwanis club, which

tickets be purchased as early as pos
siblc rs more satisfactory and prof
liable arrangement can be made with
the organization II the advance scat
sale is large. The money derived
from the concert will be used by the
club in its community work.
The excellent press comments that
the chorus has mcritcd in it's tour
of the country and in concerts abroad
prompted the club to choose the
RhOndda chorus when it planned to
give Bismarck the opportunity to
hear a first class musical concert.
The Rh0nddn chorus is known as ono
II the kcSt~upf the many famous
especially lauded by musical critics.
but each member is also a proficient
soloist and in addition to the choral
numbers. solos, duets, trios, quartets
and other group selections will be
given.
In Montreal
The following clipping from the
Montreal Gazette tells of the appre-
cistion earned from the audience at
that place:
4 Lovers Of the best type Of British
choral singing had a real treat last
evening at the concert given by the
famous Rhondda Welsh Male Choir.
That the program was enjoyed was
seen in the fact that the audience
simply refused to let the concert 60
as program, but insisted on ma
jority of the numbers being repeated.
The singing of the choir was
something apart, stirring Of choral
memories that brought thoughts of
2 land where music is part of the
lie OF the people. The choir sang
with really wonderful effect"
