On This
Occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

Walter B. Brown, in his
Chisholm Tribune-Herald, in an
editorial headed "This Racket
Has Gone Far Enough" throws
few hot shots into the state
m p tr % ler's office. Mr..
Brown states that a force from
that office arrived in Chisholm
on April 9, 1887 for the pur-
pose of auditing the city &C
counts. Up to January 1, the
cost to the city and school dis
trict has amounted to a total of
S7,784.28, and the auditors are
still there. What the cost will
be from January to the present
and upon completion is figured
at $4,000, more or less, mean
ing about $1.00 for every man,
woman and child in the city
and school district.
Mr.. Brown states in his edi-
torial that he does not know
much about audits but that
when it comes to paying a bill
for such work he thinks that
$4,672.75 is too much, as far
as they went to the first of the

a 9-S lead. It was also nip and

period until Rabin shot three
straight from the center of the
floor, with a foul, to give the
Jersey team a 24-17 lead. In the
third and final periods, the
Brewers managed to get within
two points of the leaders, but
could not cope with the freezing
tactics. The Reds excelled in foul

woefully lacking in this phase.

we now come to another series Of
figures known as the turns. On
ice they form a pattern of rather
bloated interlocking hearts.
Performed on first one foot and
then on the other, the turn traces

Starting in the middle, skate
forward on the outside edge of
your blade. Halfway around the
circle, turn on the tracing blade
to the inside backward edge and
complete the upper circle Of the
figure. For the lower part of the
figure, without a halt, change feet,
skating the first half of the circle
on the inside edge backward, turn
and finish the circle on the out
side edge forward.
FORGET YOUR FEET
The ony new element here is
the turn. Again, as formerly sug-
gested, you need Strapping good
friend to hold you up or next
best a chair while you practice
this new maneuver. Forget your
feet, if you can, and concentrate
on your shoulders. AS you ap-
proach the turn, twist your Shout
ders until your hips follows and
the skates will take care of them
selves. we hope. Before you can
attempt the figure above, yon
should learn to perform the three
turn on each foot, backwards and
forwards.
OF the 16 turns in figure skat-
ing, the three turns are the most
used. They are, too, the simplest
and can be used as graceful con-
Meeting step in free-Skating, par
ticularly when you haven't decided
what to give your gaSping specta-
tors next. E
HOURS OF PRACTICE
With the four simple edges mas
tered, as well as the change of edge
and he four turns, your repertoire
is sufficient to dazzle the girl
friend, ard even her mother, into
thinking you are a whirling derv-
iSh on ice. From there on, how
ever, you get into serious figure
skating which requires long hours
Of practice and precise technique.
Unless you are fairly supple,
young IND have plenty Of time to
devote to practice, you will proba-
bly, rest on your laurelS here.
From now on we will describe
the various figures from the point
of view of a railbird connoisseur,

COMMUNITY
THEATRE IMPROVED

The recent improvement of
the Keystone Community the
atre by h e installation of new
seats, decorating the walls, fine
carpets on the floor and the econo
mical arrangements has merited
for the management the mo S t
favorable compliments. At FIRST
and by those who failed to take
time and be conservative enough
to note the advantages, a slight
misunderstanding became cur
rent in the beginning. The new
seats are much more comfort
able. More room is the result of
the new arrangement, the seats
are slightly more distantly a
part and for that reas IN, having
same to conform to the laws of
the state and architectural rules
in arrangement, neceSsiated to
max less seats for both the col
ored and the white. There are
twelve seats less on the colored
side and fourteen less on the
white side. No discrimination
because Of any reason. Friendly
and courteous treatment accord
ed any and all peoples at all
times. And those who may
have had a misunderstanding at
first now are open and f ran k
to make it known that they were
in error. At no time in the past
has there ever been a more even
handedly conducted a theatre in
Keystone than the present one.
Some of the finest pictures ever
thrown on any screen are to be
seen in Keystone. Mr.. Rogers,
an unStlfish and unprecedented
white man has deported himself
in such gentlemanly way as to
win the popular approval of all.
Keystone needs to doff its hat
at the Community theatre.

business recession is laid. Under
the circumstances, when the
purchaing power for the COM

contraction becomes general,
such an economic situation resol-
YES into Il depression, whether it

situation ATTAINED in 1929 to
1892, and from 1887 to the pre-
