A SAND CREEK OPINION

The farmers have again been busy
clearing the road of snow. 1t is a
real problem, but it is real salts
faction to see so many willing to do
their bit in helping, but many who
never help to clear the roads are
the first ones out with their cars
after the blowing is done. Therefore
we believe the county should do it
and everyone made to help do it
through taxes.
If the county does it, those who new
er help, will have to do their share.
We are glad to see so many letters
from both doctors and other taxpay-
ers who are interested in keeping the
main highways open, and we are sure
something will be done i'm the near
future.

Prague Teachers
Chorus Will Give
Concert at St. Paul

Dvorak, Smetana. Kocian, Kubelik,
Destinn. These names are we'll
known and respected in the world of
music. Nor is it only in the sophisti-
Gated musical world that they are
known. Every lover of music is ac-
quainted with the names of these peO-
pie and appreciates their beautiful
creations and interpretations. Who
does not know Dvorak's "Humoresque,"
Smetana's 'Prodana Nevesta," (Bar-
tered Bride), the violin of Kubelik,
the voice of Emmy Destinn
They are Czech artists. Since due
recognition of the Republic of Czecho-
Slovakia, the world has learned of
these people in the arts as well as in
industry. In recent years, we have
had greater opportunity to know them;
more and more Czech artists are be-
ing presented to the American public.
This year, we have the rare privi-
offered by the Prague Teachers
Chorus of Prague. Czecho-Slovakia.
The organization is conducted by Me-
tod Dolezil, a man who has devoted
his entire life to music and choral
work The only time spent away from
it was that period which he spent
i'm the service of his country during
the World war.
The group was organized for con-
cert purposes in 1908. Prior to that,
many of them had sung together but
merely for their love of song, the
heritage of all true Czechs. Since
1908, they have toured Europe, reap
ing acclaim wherever they went; the
halls where they were presented were
ever filled to capacity.
The chorus is comprised of sixty
male voices. All Of the members
are associated with some school or
university in Prague. With the CEN
turtles of musical tradition for back
ground, their mate love of music ever
with them and their years of careful
present choral music in its finest light.
The simple haunting melodies of
Czech and Slovak folk songs are their
best offerings. Besides these, their
programs are replete with the great
est choral works of all countries. But
rare beauty of real Czecho-Slovak
music given in full tonal effect as
only eXquisitely blended voices scan
present it.
This organization has been lauded
in Europe for two decades. We have
our first opportunity to hear it and we
must not miss our chance. The chorus
appeals, of course, primarily to the
person of Czech extraction. His herit-
age of musical appreciation though it
be dormant, will respond to the invi-
tation. Yet. no lover of fine music,
especial of choral presentation can
afford to miss it. The range of tone,
the technique, the melodiOus harmony
will meet human response.
The Prague Teachers Chorus will
be presented in concert in the ST.
Paul Auditorium, ST., Paul, Minnesota.
on March II, 1929.
You can make your reservations
with w. j. Dyer & Brothers, 81 West
Fifth Street, st. Paul, Minnesota, at
prices ranging from $1.0O to $500.
You must not miss the opportunity
of hearing them; if you do, you will
have missed the finest entertainment
ever offered.
There are two chapters of the Sokol
Society in Pine county and no doubt
there will be a great many from here
attend the affair.

EXPECT CANONLAW
TO MODIFY CIVIL
New ltalo Vatican Agreement to
Cause Changes

Rome. March % Rl-Legal ex-
perts and jurists the world over are
showing interest in the workings of
probably the most unusual legal
change of modern times-the REIN
PRODUCTION Of canon law in Italy, as
result OF the new Italo-Vatican
agreement.
BY this treaty. the lave OF the
church is restored to go hand in
hand with the law of the land. The
system of civil law will be modi-
fed in religious and moral matters
by canon law which will take hold
rs soon as the agreement is formally
ratified by the new Italian parlia-
ment.
Citizens of Italy in future will thus
be guided in many of their relations
one to another by one of the Oldest
codes in the world. Canon law was
first codified by Gratian in the
middle of the 1oth century, but il
can be traced practically to the be-
e'nnlngs OF the Roman Catholic
church.
The Introduction Of Canon law
Will mean a number of changes in
present regulations, such as those
relating to marriage; but since the
fundamentals Of canon and civil
law are practically the same. Ital-
lans can carry on as before, with
out much fear of Interference.
Canon law is important the world
over, because In SO many countries

civil laws or contributed a great part
OF their provisions. England owes
to canon law great debt during the
formative period of English common
law in the 18th and 18th centuries,
and America owes like debt
through its transportation of the
common law.
Canon law is formed first of all
from the Scriptures, particularly
from the code enunciated by Jesus
Christ Some of the Old Testament
principles. such as the Ten Com
,nandments and some lesser regula
tons. such as the degrees of rela-
tionship within which marriage can
lot be contracted, have been retain
I'd. but most of the Canon law comes
from the New Testament Added to
TINS basis are the laws Of the
church, made by the Popes and the
"plscopate. The earlier pronounce
lnents of the Popes were contained
IN letters. In later years these have |
been called bulls.
In recent years canon law has |
usually been added to by legisla- !
ION prepared by congregations or I
committees of cardinals working I'M |
der the Roman Curia. and approved |
by the Pope. These pieces of legis-
!atlon are known as Acta Sanctae
sedis, or Acts of the Holy See"
canon law has had a tremendous
effect on almost all relations of 4
mankind by its constant pressure
during almost two thousand years,
1t assisted the church in lettering

ing for their freedom. 1t gave chill II
dren d higher status than that of
rhattels of their father. 1t made Il
woman free. 1t made wills more |
Just by the rule that a man could
not will away his whole estate and
ignore his widow and children.
Canon law is the foundation, too,
for the modern view of contracts,

owe much of their methods of legal
procedure. and the judges much Of
their system Of jurisprudence.

Caraway has a bill which would re-
Quire all paid lobbyists to register

applies to any lobbyist who shall
gage for pay to influence legislation

lobbying as ANY effort to influence

viewing Of seeking to interview indl-
