Ely Musicians Garner
Top Awards in County
Fair, Amateur Contest
Shepel Sisters Trio Named
Champions of st. Louis
County at Hibbing.
ALL ELY ENTRIES WIN
Godec Brothers Win Third
in Countrywide Contest
Held Sunday.

Ely talent again drew attention to the
excellence of the musical ability Of this
city when the Shepel Sisters and the
Godec Brothers, trfoS in both cases,
stole the show of the amateur contest
at the ST. Louis County Fair at Hibbing
on Sunday. In fact all the Ely cont1n-
gent in the contest placed in the
awards made. Art Buraglio, singer and
accordianiSt, was grouped with the
Shepel Sisters for first award. Out Of
ten cities competing, Ely carried off
the major honors and was the only
city of the group who placed their en-
tire entry into the award class.
Car after car Of ely people attended
the Fair on Sunday. Owing to the
threatening weather early in the day,
many more who had arranged to attend,
changed their plans. The sun came out
about noon and the afternoon proved
propitious for the trip and several cars
left for the afternoon and evening pro-
grams.
All those in attendance spoke very
highly of the exposition. The exhibits
We're many and nicely arranged and
labeled. Especially fine were the dis
plays of potatoes from the EmbarraSs
valley and the exhibits of Cherry,
Lakeland, Bear River, Alango Vermil-
ion Lake and Angora districts. The
southern end of the county also had
many displays of products of the farm
and the farm ladies.
Particularly gratifying were the dis
plays of live stock and poultry. Cows,
principally of the Guernsey breed, al
though many other breeds were repre-
sented, were feature as well as poul-
try, sheep and swine. Those in charge
state that the fair this year had again
taken on an exposition of farmer inter-
est.
The agricultural showings was given
as the cause of the extra large atten-
dance for both Saturday and Sunday
fair. President VIM. F. Henke of tht
Fair Association stated that in every
sense it was the most successful ever
held in the county. The total attend.
ance was given at $4,000, 5000 more
than last year.
The amusement side of the eXposi
ton was not neglected. The Williams
and Lee troupe consisting of the beau
tiful Ritz-Carlton blondes, and the Lee
acrobatic performance took place dali,
and thrilled the audience. Music fur
nished by the Hibbing and Balkan
bands. The latter was the winner o
the rural band contest. Thrilling aut
and horse racing formed the highlight
of the afternoon performances.

Elaborate Exhibition Features
Ely's 18th Annual Community
Exposition Presented Saturday
Over 5000 People Attend
Fair Sponsored by the
Commercial Club.
LARGE ENTRY LIST
Total of I'll Prize Winners
Are Announced in the
Various Groups.

The Community Fair, ending Satur-
day evening, was pronounced one of the
best ever held here and exhibits ex-
ceeded all expectations considering the
desperate growing conditions experienced
the past season.
Vegetables and root crops, flowers,
canned vegetables and fruits, domestic
science products, breads and cakes, pies
and cookies, needle work and All club
exhibits exceeded last years showing.
The potato exhibit fell down on last
years showing owing to the drouth and
the exceptional hot weather experienced
during the growing months.
It is estimated that 5000 people at
tended the exhibit on Saturday after
noon and evening. AS per last year, the
exhibit was placed in the Memorial
gymnasium of the Ely school system.
Better lighting, better placements and
more room for the spectators was thus
provided
The Judging was done by disinterested
persons. No names were attached to
the exhibits. August Neubauer, county
agent, judged the garden products and
root crops; Mrs. Neubauer the flowers
and needlework, and Miss Elizabeth
Spreistersbach, county home demon
stration agent, the canned goods and
baking.
Mr. Neubauer in commenting on the
fair stated that this was the best he
had been called upon to judge this year.
He was very complimentary in speaking
of the garden products in particular.
He also mentioned the potatoes and
stated that they were on a par with
other sections of the county. Mr.. Neu-
bauer also stated that potatoes would be
scarce this year and that prices would
soar before winter.
All the judging was done on Friday
afternoon and early Saturday morning.
The rain of Friday delayed considerably
the placing of exhibits and it is esti-
mated that many more would have been
entered had the weather been more
conducive. Prizes were awarded in
every case of 81 for the first, 75c for
second and SOC for third.
A total of TIL prizes were awarded,
divided in the following divisions: 80
! for needlework; 80 for baking; 66 for
dried and canned goods; 81 for pickles
and canned meats; 81 for fresh fruits
and berries; 1873 for flowers; IA for
garden vegetables; 80 for potatoes; Is
for stock food; II for grains and seeds,
and 18 for forage crops.
In addition there were eight special
prizes awarded for the All displays
divided as club garden display; three
for sewing; two for baking and one for
canning. These displays were attrac-
lively shown in separate space in the

RIO Theatre
INSTALLS new
SOUND SYSTEM
Manager Swanson Equipping
New Theatre With "High
Fidelity" Unit.

Arrangements for the installation OF
remarkable new RCA photophone High
Fidelity" sound reproducing system
which promises to revolutionize all pre-
vious conceptions of realism in sound
motion picture reproduction, have been
completed by Mr.. Swanson, manager of
the Rio Theatre, with the photophone
division of the RCA Manufacturing
company.
The new photophone sound equip
ment, which represents radical i'm
provement over all previous apparatus
of its type, is similar to that recently
installed in the two new super-theatres
at Rockefeller Centre in New York
the beautiful Centre Theatre, and the
worlds largest and most modern
theatre, Radio City Music Hall.
With the installation of the new
High Fidelity" apparatus, the Rio
Theatre will be one of the first in this
vicinity to be equipped with apparatus
capable of faithfully reproducing the
finest sound which recent advances in
recording have made possible. Theatre
patrons will be assured of brilliantly
natural and ineligible sound sound
that until very recently was only pos
sible in the worlds largest laboratories,
according to Mr. Swanson.
Responsible motion picture theatre
exhibitors have for some time been
aware that the continuous advances
which have been scored in the art Of
recording sound motion pictures, mad
far outstripped the performance of
current types of motion picture repro
ducing equipment. Consequently, the
theatre patron does not reap the full
benefit of these remarkable improve
ments if the theatre equipment does not
measure up to the new, more exacting
requirements In line with our policy
of making the best possible entertain
ment available to our patrons, we made
thorough study of the various types
of equipment on the market and un-
hesitatingly chose the new RCA photo
phone High Fidelity" sound system
from all the Others" said Mr.. Swanson
with the RCA photophone sounc
| system, which is the most recent major

'Then nothing matters. Donald,
In my whole, whole life never
loved you quite so much, and I'll
never worry, and try to keep any
thing from you again!"
Christie thought that she'd never
try to keep anything from Donald
again.
Their life was so perfect now, so
smooth and happy. They didn't
need his mother, or Nettie Cooper,
or any Of the old gay crowd that
failed them. They had each other,
and the baby. They had their
small, shining house, with its treas
uses Of books and etchingS and
hand-wrought copper and brass
and the colorful cushions and cur
tainS and braided rugs that her
loving hands had made. :
They had the little square Of old.
fashioned garden. gay with mari
colds and pinkS and petunias and
pansies. They had forget-me-nots
In the shade under the oak trees,
and jasmine and honeysuckle
growing up over the back porch.
They had the view Of the bay
and the city below them, and the
hills above them. They had a few
good friends, and some pleasant
neighborS.
The baby slept in his basket,
woke to laugh and play with his
toes, and to drink obediently the
orange juice, the tomato juice, the
water that Jennings prescribed.
and other babies, he said, often
spat out.
II Donald left early and, came
home late, Christie was used to it
now. She was no longer jealous Of
the experiments. She knew that
she and little Donny really came
first. And II Donald was thinner,
and there were new lines around
his eyes, she didn't notice. It
didn't occur to her that a doctor.
or doctors family, could ever be
Ill. She thought that they bore
charmed lives. She knew that the
baby was thriving, and that she
and Donald loved each other and
were content, and that was all that
seemed to matter.
The bills troubled her q little
She got them all paid eventually,
but 1t was always a struggle to de
eide which to pay first, and how
to juggle the Scanty funds.
She was checking them over this
afternoon. for it was almost the
1st Of September, and there was
the interest on the house, q garage
bill, and q druggists bill, besides
the usual first Of the month things
to think about.
She was just In the middle OF
q column of figures when the
doorbell rang.
--"Oh, darn!" She said mildly
hoping it wasn't a caller, for it
was 3 o'clock already, and she'd
planned to make lemon-cream
pie, and get it into the oven be
fore Donny's 4 o'clock feeding.
just in case it was, she ran
to take a peek at him in his
buggy on the back porch, before
she opened the door.
