HIGH SCHOOL WILL
PRESENT OPERETTA

"Bit's o. Barney" an IRISH operet-
ia, that is full of blarney as the title
suggests will be presented by the
Plentywood High School on Thursday
March 26, at the Orpheum Theatre at
8:15 o'clock.
At the very beginning there is a
suggestion of joyousness which is
characteristic of the Irish. Before
long however, we discover that the
girls are disgusted with their boy
friends because Peggy has won their
attentions. Patrick, who really loves
Peggy, is disappointed in her and in
very fine solo declares her to be
just "bit of barney"
Mike O'Noole whose chief aim in
life is to make people happy schemes
with the lovers without each others
knowledge and in game of mistaken
identity they are reconciled.
The songs are melodious and am
using. The choruses add a great deal
to the operetta.
The main parts are played by the
following:
Peggy-Helen Larsen
Patrick-William Paske
Mike 'Noole-Harold DeSilva
Mary-Ilo Ziebarth
Robert-Eugene Zimmerman
Agnes-Florence holman
Rosie-Mildred Hanisch.

for building state and federal high

practically impossible owing to laws
covering duties of County Commits
sioners, as well as the attitude of the
highway commission towards counties
doing such work, which in the past has
beer done at a big loss to the con-
tracing counties.
FRANK French was asked a great

under a different impression of the
true state of affairs. He went into the.

most of our roads have been built in
this county the last 5 years, and the
roads which had been built previous
to that time have all been regarded
and built up better.

April l5 is
Deadline for
License Plates

Sheriff Madsen has issued notice
that April Is is the dead line for ali
automobile and truck users in which
to have their licenses on hand and
attached to their cars, both front and
rear. He says that few parties who
have a car and truck and get only
one license using one plate on each
vehicle will get in real bad this year.
He has been very lenient with car
owners and is giving them plenty of
time in which to obtain licenses, but
after April Is, anyone caught using
ther trucks or car without such lic-
ense plates will learn that they will
not only have to pay the license fund
but possibly into another fund as we'll.
If you have not already obtained
your license, and may need a little
assistance, any agarageman or bank
er in the county will be glad to assist
you.

hit from the rear, and the body was
thrown in the ditch and one side
where it remained unobserved until
Sunday morning There was large
hole in the back of the head which in
dcated death had been instantaneous
His wife missed him, but thought
possibly he had remained with a
friend for the night, although he
would seldom remain away from
home over night.
Approximating the time he left
home with the time a drunken driver
w9s arrested on the streets of Inter
national Falls, few blocks from
where the body was found, it is be.
lieved he met his death within five
minutes Of the time he left his home.
When this drunken driver was ar

lights on the car twisted askew and
asked this party if he had had an ac-
cident, but to which he replied in the
negative The car was placed in a gar
age over night, and the driver allow
ed to go to his room to sober up
When Mr.. Gunther's body was founu
the police hurried to the garage and

several blood clots on it which he had
failed to notice the evening before
This man was Immediately arrested

tained his innocence and no knowledge
of the affair. Specimens Of blood ta-
ken from the body of the dead man

PARENT TEACHERS
MEETING TO Be HELD
monday MARCH 23
Will Stress Importance of the
Study and Playtime for
Students

The principle topic for the
Parent-Teachers meeting to be
held on Monday, March %, will
be Reacreation and Use of
Leisure Time. The meetings this
year, have been following for
the most part, the Seven Cardin-
al Principles of Education and
for this next session of the p.
T. A. we shall continue with
discussion of leisure activities.
1t is expected that the subject will
be an interesting one and that parents
will feel free to ask questions and
offer suggestions which may assist
all of us in working out mutual pro-
blem. 1t is realized at the School that
some pupils may engage too heavily
in activities designed primarily for
leisure time and it would therefore
welcome and assistance in correcting
and situations needing special atten-
ton. The policy of the school is to
provide a leisure time activity for
every boy and girl in the system.
Some may be omitted and some may
be engaging too heavily in this field.
The manner of presenting the
theme will be somewhat different
than on previous occasions. We shall
hear discussionu almost entirely
from the pupils standpoint. Presen-
tation Of the thoughts for consider
alton in this manner, it is hoped will
give both parents and teachers a bet
ter idea Of what it means to the
boys and girls of the school, The only
positive ways of evaluating the worth
of such activities, is from the pu-
pills standpoint.
