Aocording to the policy of the School they have invited him to address the school on the open evening on which various people are invited address the .school. Mr. Božidar Jakac did tihe most urjusual and at the same time one of the most natural things that one could do under the circumstances; show the members the pictures that have been hung for the ex- hibition and teli the students npatters that pertain to pic- ture appreciation that are got- ten with hard work of they are never appreciated. • Mr. Jakac led the class thru the galleries of his exihibit and initiated them into the secrets of the art of making pictures. In the first gallery he explained the essential difference betvveen dry-point and etching. He also explained the method of mak¬ ing wood cuts and the special tecihnique that is required to make the wood cuts appear as unusual as they do. Many of the students were surprised at the fund of Science that Mr. Božidar Jakac has at his command leading them thru the mysteries of the reason of vvearing woolens on the Equa- tor and the reason for having rough porous jugs in preference to the glazed jub of our country His explanation was that wool- ens because of the quantity of the air space that they have act as insulators to the terrific heat while the saping water tihru the sides causes the water to remain cool because of the principle the “evaporation cools.” Artistically the members of the class were told to “See A- merica First” because the only way to appreciate another coun- try is to know one’s country first. In the connection I(lr. B. Jakac explained that the white man on the American continent does not know his own country and the force of tihe soil as i well as the Indian does. This Mr. Jakac very forceablv dem- onstrated by the use of the pic- ture of the western mountains and shovved the parallel betvveen the contour of the country and the design that the Indian weaves into his blankets and the VVampum belt. Mr. Jakac also stated that it would take the vvhite man as long to appreciate the intrinsic beauty of the country as it took Indians to feel its force and beauty. In the subjects of portraits Mr. Jakac showed the difference be- tween the photographic portrait and the portrait that is done Hy hand by an artist. “The essen¬ tial difference between the photograph and the artists work lies in the fact that the photo¬ graph is the mechanical and at the same time the most perfect reproduction of the likeness of the person who is being photo- graphed, while the portrait of the artist does not claim to be the perfect reproduction of the man whose portrait is being Thru With Part What may appear to be most roitous comedy on the surface sometimes carries \vith it , a most dramatic and tragic note. This was empiiaticallv demon- strated last Sunday when. the Comrades produced their play “ Color Blind” at the Slovene Auditorium. The audience or at least the vast majority of the audience that saw the play and laughed heartily at the comic situations that were pro¬ duced was unconscious that in what seemed comedy there was a serious and melodramatic touoh. One of the -principle characters of the čast was la- boring under the peculiar emo- tions of love and dutv vvhen he knew that his mother was at home ready to breathe her last conscious breath on this.earth and he to have one of the indis- pensable parts without vvhich the play could not be produced. Such was the predicament of Joseph Jarc who played in the role of a husband. Strain and emotion are rarely opposed to each other in such singular circumstances as was the čase with Joseph Jarc but duty and loyality in the crisis forced him to stay and do his bit to make the Comrade pro- duction as successful as it has been. Nor did he get home too soon afler the play because his moth¬ er was so low by then that she died during the vvee hours of M o n d a y morning.

In spite of the strain that was evident on the part of ali the characters of the čast they per¬ formed their play well and made a successful evening of it. Despite the tragedy the actors went through the play with the confidence of e x p e r i e n c ed hands. Everyone will think of the splendid performance of the rnaid who was so aptly portray- ed by Milly Tomšič and the most outstanding character part that was seen on the local stage for some time. Second to her part was the character of Mr. John Black played by Rudolph Lisch. AH the other parts \vere well portrayed and the evening was satisfactory to ali in spite of the tragic backstage note that the news of the low condition of Joseph Jarc’s mother carried. and ali the attendant tragedy connected with it. The play proper, however, deals with the love affair of a boy and girl who are neighbors and the difference of religious belief that causes trouble for the loving couple. the climax comes with the news that the husband (thev were secretly married) loses. his life in action and the father on hearing of the marriage kills his own daughter. The plav has a great deal of dramatic value and will be worth the \vhile of seeing. “Lira” the singing societv is a newly organized singing society, but youth of the organization does not speak. inexperience in that line before.

The admission is $1.00 and 50 cents. Undertaking a shouldering of an expense bili that \vill run in- to more than $1,500 dollars in costumes and scenery is the ges- ture with which the lodge Christ the King wishes to prove that they are earnest in making their production of The Passion Play an event that has never been undertaken by the Slovenes in America. It will be the first time that an event of that na¬ ture and size will be undertaken by any set of people. How large an undertaking it is can be gotten from the amount of preparation that is being taken to make the čast, perfect. Of more than 120 people that will appear in the čast, the manager Joseph Grdina has been visiting various localities to secure the people who will fit perfectly in¬ to the čast. And as is the way of the manager he has succeeded in getting the people w!ho are of the exact type to do j lističe to the parts assigned. The čast of a Passion play is much different from the čast of an ordinary play because of the prejuce that is connected with the characters that they are to represent. There are very fe\v people who do not have a defin- ite picture in their mind when Judas is mentioned. And yet the person who will take the part of Judas must so understand the character that no one who . will see it, have a wrong impression. The field of innovation and in- terpretation of the part is very limited. When a n.ew character like Lightnin’ Bill is created the actor himself can make the per¬ son represented ačcording to the way he himself understands it. That is not the čase with the characters of a Passion play. The characters are definitely outlined and they must conform to the historical representation of the character or they fall fiat. Work in selecting the čast is therefore the most exacting kind of work on wlhich the play will make a success or will be a fail- ure. Such work is the work of the Casting Director and in this particular čase the work was admirably done. Parts have been given to persons upon whom a complete responsibility can be placed. They can be relied on to give the finest and best inter- pretation of which they are ca- pable.

And ali of those thousands of people have gotten a little better idea that the Slovenes are as capable of showing that they are artistic and can take a'favorable plače among the cultured people of the world. The thousands whc have already come not counting those who will be there tonight have been thriiled and have gone admiring the profilic work and the artistic work of the Slo¬ vene artist. The exhibit opened last Wed- nesday evening and has been going on thru ali the evenings and will close tonight. More than two hundred pictures npt including the graphies are on ex- •position portraving scenes from practically ali the corners of half of the world. Scenes from Ju- goslavia, Africa Califoi-nia, Yellowstone part from the great- est part of the wonderful exhi- bit of colored paintings in pas¬ tel.

Color and more color artisti- cally blended not to contrast so much as to show the different moods when that particular scene was made. Moods of the scene and the impression of the locality are the character of the pictures tihemselves. Color may be somewhat misleading in the pictures themselves and one is liable to ask if such colors exist in nature but that is beside the point. It is not the work of the artist to represent every line that is seen in the natural scene it is sufficient to represent the mood of the plače. P.hotographs and colored films may be used to do that. It is the artist who sees the scene with a special outlook and with a special Vi¬ sion and represent tihe picture.

We are living in the age of business efficiency and in the age when everything is calculated in “How much?” No matter what is being' done or what is intend- ed the inevitable question ahvays “How much is it worth?” or “How much wiil it bring?” Sthtisties figures and numbers are being brought forward to show how much this costs and how much mo- ney is being iost in various enterprizes. If things are being done there is always a person who counts the movements required and calculating the priče of raising of a liancl or even a finger. People are being swampecl with figures for every thing. One can prove anything fchat he sets his mind to and have figures available to prove., the proof. It was only in jest that E. Rath wrote “Too Much” Efficiency” and showed the methods used in calculating the efficiency of ali labors in which men are engaged. He had no idea of the tura of events at the time he wrote. Modem kitchens have shrunk in size and ali things have been so arranged that the minimum amount of steps are neccesary to do the ordinary labors of the household. Where the whole vertago will leacl to is an open question. The latest wrinkle that has appeared • is making courtesv efficient and efficiency engineers have cal¬ culated the priče of eourtesy in Chicago for a current child on the part of the mother will have its priče set on them and will have ali the impulse of sacrifice taken out of them. Doing something for the sake of the thing itself has been one of the most natura! impulses. and has con- tributecl more to the progress of the world than any other motive. The other ugly sicle of making men efficient is that they are lowered to the level of cold iron in the ma- chine. We are not so oldfashioned to think that business ,and competition can be successful without ef¬ ficient hanclling, nor, yet, are we so modern that we think that the worlcl will move on very smoothly if there is aprice set on everything that is done. In the question of efficiency couldnT the effici'ency engineers confine themselves to the machine and leave us mortal alone and leave us do things because we love to do them rather that the priče that is set on them. _l vvas 22,754,194, a very n, n , ! estimate which does not A I X ,, .. +1- ln <%| i wvv*. rVVVV^/VVVVVT 'Leaves From Nature the figures for the cminty, The work with childre n apace.

They have figurecl it out as foilows. If four men and a lady ride in an elevator the menthrough courtesy remove their hats. This act of courtesy on the part of the four men takes up the room of an extra elevator passenger, neccesitating extra trips of the elevator. Extra trips of the elevator means an expense in power and in the wear and tear in the machinery. The extra trips cost the buildings about $25.000 in repair. We do not see any sense in taking hats off in a public elevator, anyway but we do object to be told the priče of doing a little courtesy that seems to us to be the matural part of our make up. What is more seri- ous is the fact that with such a humble start there is no way of finding where the efficiency fiends will stop. One may surmise that in the future the cost of lov- ing a mother and father and the cost of the movement that are expended in making them a little more comfort- able will have a priče set on them. Showing the love to a May Lamberton Becker has said “One of the mistakes most often made in estimating the usefulness of books is to think that they are useful only for iterar.v purposes. A vast num- ber of books are used as tools, as actual tools of a trade or a profession. They help us to get on with out work and to get up in the vvorld.” Many a book on business man- agement or technology, earnest- ly studied and put into practice, ■vil’, reap its returns in increased dividenda, or where the reader is not at the top of the ladder it may result in a promotion or a ccize in salary. By no means ali the results of reading are due directly to the information con- tained in the books however. Reading may lead to new ideas and new Impetus for achieve- ment as vvell. Many tools for use in the home may be found on the li- brary shelves. The house-wife wfU find books wlhich will help her to provide new dishes for the family, to plan wisely the ekpenditure of iher money so that it will go farther and cover the necessary items, to under- stand bet ter and know how to deal more wisely with her ch.ll- ■dren and ihow to čare for them in čase of sickness, how to en- tertain company, to furnish the house more beautifully and to make many things for use in the home. The man of the house, if he is !handy with tools, vvill find many books which will shovv h im quite easily how to make many useful pieces of furniture for the home, how to do his own plumbing, how to paint and var- nish, ihovv to hang paper or fin- ish floors, or, if he enjoys vvork - ing out-of-doors, the n\any books on gardening will be untold aid. For the younger members of the family the books on etiquette vvill answer many a question which will save much itneasiness and self-consciousness and make life pleasanter. Then last but not least the dictionary is a tool for every- one which will answer many and varied questions and often settle disputes. March.

County Library work has made the greatest advance of ali. Sir Walter Scott was a great lover of dogs and always kept a nu.mber of them. His favorite was a large deerhound named Maida. He had a number of small dogs, too, called Pepper, G-inger, Mustard, Catchup and Špice. The combined city and countv circulation in 1929 was 9,453,- 143; the circulation for Cleve¬ land alone was 8,665,656, a gain over any previous year of 527,- 652. The total circulation for the first six years of the Li- brary’s existence did not equal the inerease alone in this one year. Of the Cleveland circulation of well over eight and one hali illion volumes, less than a tih ir d was adult fiction in En- rlish. In round numbers, 451- 000 volumes T ,vere circulated in the broad field of Literature. 263,000 in History, 260,000 in Usefuls Arts, 232,000 in Travel and 230,000 in Fine Arts and over 306,000 in the 26 foreign languages most largely repre- sented in the foreign population of Cleveland. But these figures are only for reading done outside the library.

T. SUHADOLNIK Leonihard Pachenecker the author of the first Catholic Slovene book was a sub-prior at Vitinja. In 1579 he was made the Abbot at Kostanje, but he died in September of 1580. What the contents of his book was we cannot teli no copy of the editipn is extant. Ali that is known is wbat Trubar teliš about it. Con- cerning the book of the Jesuits nothing definite is known. It is not even certain that the book was pub- lished by the Jesuits because Trubar calls the cate- chism of Pachenecker a Jesuit publication. Whether Slovene was \vritten by the Jesuits at that time is pro- blematical for the same < reason. The author of the first Catholic book, Leonhard Pachernecker was a sub-prior at Vertenje; in 1579 ihe waš made abbot of the monastery at Kostanje and died on September 30, 1580. Concerning his book the only information extant is the mention that Trubar makes of it. Nor can any information be gotten concerning the Jesuit publication. It is not even certain that thev wrote in Slovene or in Latin because there is no cer- tainty that 4he Jesuits wrote in Slovene. Trubar cred- its the work of tihe Cistertians to the Jesuits. During this era tthe Catholics are responsible for another cateehism that was published by Ingenerius, the bishop of Trz. It was intended for the Catholic clergy as a gnide for instructlons to the faithful on Sundays. This book did not survive tlie ages and nohting more is known about. It is probable that many other books were published during the era however, none of them have survived. It iW certain that the publications of tihe Catholic . clergy does not compare in any particular to the,activity of their Protestant contemporaries. Other relxques of the Protestant Era in Slovenia are mainly nianuseripts of an off i dal nature that de nofconeern themselves with the religious questions ol the day. The oldest is the feudal oath of the City of Krajn and is dated-at 1550. The next in order is oath of 1570. The oldest translation is a translation of a code of laws that was originally published in German (1543). “Gornih buqui. . .Priuilegium. Is Nou uflait- eniki Jefigk Istumazhan skufi Andrea Rezla, Famoftra na Rakj, Anno M. D. LXXXII”. ' The character of the vvriting shows that the author was acquainted v/ith the books of Trubar. The contents of the text has many foreign expressions and the agreement of the words is copied very literally after the German. The Protestant Era also saw the publication of the first Slovene dictionary for the use of Slovenes. It was vvritten by Jerome Megister of German deseent, horn at Struttgart and studied at Tubingen. At the uni- versity he became acquainted with Dalmatin and twc of Trubar’s sons. S 0011 after his graduation hq went vto Ljubljana as a tutor to the family of KiseFs, who vvere very active supporters of Slovene press during the era. From 1593 to 1601 he was the reetor at the academy at Celovec. He went into cxile v/ith the other Pi'otestant ministers when the Duke Ferdinand issued his edict that ali the Protestant clergy leave his domain. Megister was then stationed at Frank¬ furt, Lipzig, Geri and died at Linz in 1619. Not only claiming the authorship of the. Dicfionary he was a profilic v/orker in German and was the author of many vvorks in History and Politics. For the Slovenes the most interesting, of course, is the Dictionary which was published under the title “Dictionarium quattuor linguarum, videlicet Germanicae’ Latinae, Illyrica« (quae vulgo Sclavonica appelletur) and Italicae sive Hetruscae” which was published at Gradec in 1592. The composition shows the jiberal use of Bohorcic’s grammar, from the example that are bodilv taken from the work, he also added some original examples.

CuRural Outlook of the Era Despite the strong ontrenehment of Lutheranism in Slovenki, it could not survive the hostile countev- attacks of the State under the leader-ship of the Cath¬ olic dukes and the Catholic Church, Lack of education of the Catholic clergy and the indifference as a natural result have been-the primary cause of the spread. of Protestantism. Secondary causes can be attributed to the Turkish menace which demanded a diplomatic handling of the situation to insure the integrity of the country \vhose only hope was the union that could be affected by being in the graces of ali the religious parties in the country it¬ self. The zenith of power was reached at the council of Bruck in .1578. During the time the protestant ascendancy the in, terior reform of the Catholic Church was being made. The Popes of the Rena^sance vvere follov/ed by Popes v/ho vvere zealous for the vvelfare of the Church in con- trast to the Popes that preceeded, The Council of Tricentum, 1545-1563, established and defined Catholic doctrines and laid a foundation for a complete re-or- ganization of the governing body and' discipline that vvas the sore necessity if the vvork vvas to be carried on. The Jesuits, only a few years old at that time, helped ih the complete reorganization. As a result of the Council a nevv life vvas injeeted into the Catholic Church and schools and seminaries vvere either re-es- tablished or nev/ ones founded. The college at Gradec had its begmning at this time. The bishops 'began to realize that they vvere in charge of a spiritual flock rather than temporary rulers that Feudalism made them. Canon lavvs vvere inforced vvith the result that the bad pfiests vvere disrobed or punished and the Laity v/as instrueted in the principles of Chistian life and Catholic doctrine. Contemporaneously the State, as such, began its ov/n reform that aided the church in its reform. Protestant¬ ism brought vvith it the strife of the nobility against the rulers of the respective countries. I n the Interior of Austria the conditions vvere similar where the nobles v/ere aligned against the rulers. Earlv in the strife for the libertv of religious practice the Duke Charles did not give permission to the nobles to set up their Services as they v/ished. Hard feelings' arose that brought the crisis to ar med revolt. Resolutions are a threat to the government and as such are not re¬ ligious but economic in nature. Such vvas the occasion that vvas util-ized to talce active steps to assert authority of the rulers tli® selves and vvith the revolts to quell vvith counter force, the religious element entered and the lead« combined to make an end of the Protestant Era in 4 lands. Prince Ferdinand later Emperor Ferdinarid began the strife upon the principle that was the m® of the rulers for centuries_euius regio, eius religi« ihe religion of the ruler siiall be the religion of 1 country. His first demand vvas that ali the subinf« atecl nobility cede to his d,ema:ids of returningtol faith that he professed. On September 1, 1598, 1 issued the edict that ali of the Protestant eiergv h* 1 his empire in the current year. In 1599 he demanj* 1 that ali the tovvnspeople among wihom Protestan-i vvas stropgest, return to the Catholic religionor if^ were unvvilling to do that, they seli their pfopertJ^ lea /e the country. To the special patrons of P 1 ' 0 ^ antism he forbade putting Protestant ministers i» vacated places.

These defeats were a bad blow to the Boosters as they were ex- peeted, judging by their past performances,, to get the better of the Lova!it es.

Johnny Pekol the A. B. C star led the Loyalites with five hundred seventy-two. The Clairwoods received a .mare in their first two games against the lowly Progressives ■ v/inning by a scant margin. How- over, the final game was a walk i-way for the leaders. Jim Stepic buffetecl the pins for five hundred eighty-one series The Spartans bowled the Bett- :,y Ross quintet.for three, whik the Comrades tied for third olace in dovvning the Kozan Shoe Repairs. Arko, Kozan’s anchor man, laced out five ih un d ped 3ighty-one. Adolph Tekautz, Comrades latest flash, banged out five hundred sixty-two. The boys are on their home- vvard stretch. Sundav will be the next to the last game. Mahy changes may take plače. The FIozan’s wlll hook up with Bettsy Ross and if they cop- three from them it will put the ,Shoe Repair-men in the plače now occupied by the Bettsy Ross team. The Loyalites will fight hard to hold their position, vvhile their opponents, the Clairvvoods must continue their spurt or lose out after perching on the top rune the better part of the last half. The Boosters vvill have a ehance to catch their breath in bovvling against the Progres¬ sives, after their disastrous loss to the Lovalites, Thev stili have to play the Clairvvoods in the final series of the season. Another very interestiug setto i and perhaps one that should 9' prove most exciting, vvill Ire the Spartan-Conrrade melee. N. Y. Commili and Riško There never vvas a fighter vvho received as much criticism preliminary to an important fight as Mr. Phil Scott, tihe En- glish heavyweight Champion, who as his manager says, vvas made a sacrifice that Sharkey might vvin. Here vvas a man vvho vvas de- rided not only by the exports, but by nearly the entire pugilis- tic flock, right dovvn to the nevvs- paper boy vvho vvas vvilling to vager his last copper that Mr. Scott vvould be knoeked out. The reasons for the ridicule vere that Phil vvas a master ;hampion claimant of foul blovvs dso his vietories vvere fevv in his country, and these via the 'oul route. Suffice it to say that the rea- ions set forth may be justified Hfovvever, vve feel, that inasmuch is he v/as an invader from an- )ther' country, he should have been accorded some respeet if ha be a pugilist of sueh rank as he vas branded to be. This feeling or repugnance vvas carried on hrough his training right on to and after, the pitiful fight. Aft- ir the battle the “I told you ?uys” vvere filled vvith glee; for he fight turned out to be j ust is they predieted. In fact, if t had turned out any other way hey vvould have bqen bitterly lisappointed. The šport seribes m the majority prided them- jelves vvith havdng predieted the outsome of the jamboree. We are not trving to belittle Sharkey’s viictory, sueh as it ivas. Hovvever, vve can’t under- teams are bitter rjvals and the members of both clubs come out stronglv to root for their he- roes. To date the Comrades have an edge on their rivals, having vvon four out of six. Hovvever, the Spartanites vvere off form and did not bovvl up to ixpectations. Nevertheless, the Jomrades feel they have the In- ;lian v sign on their opponents and ir e confident of victory. The Spartans are only one game be- hind first plače. The Comrades, too, realize their great oppof- tunity to elinch third plače by clrubbing the Spartans Sunday. The intense rivalry, the po- sitions at stake; add to this, the špirit vvith vvhich the boys are flashing Andy Mellon’s little notes, one then gets an idea of the importance of the outeome ind of the interest that vvill be taken in tliis struggle for the Both l fittest. stand why some very close ob- servers of pugilistic vvarfare should speak up so openly and declare that the bout vvas not fought on clean basis, clean sportsmanship, and that the whole mess vvas mismanaged. Is is possible that Sharkey took advantage of the fact that he knevv that he could vvin the fight in any manner he chose, fair or foul? If Scott vvas yel- levv, vvhy did he continue to fight after the first time that he vvas supposed to have 'been fouled? If Sharkey claimed a foul under like circumstances vvould. he be given the same treatment? Did the Madison Square Garden take any precaution to have its favor- ed man vvin? Did the Madison Square Garden build up Scott be- cause they thought ihe vvould whip its costly investment? Riško Campolo Decision Who vvas it, vvho influenced the referee in the šemi final to ren- der a decision vvhich vvas favor- able to the loser of the bout? vVas it because the interested officials favored Campolo or did they visualiže a prospective gate in rematching the battlers in Nevv York? Or vvas it because Riško is not a favorite vvith Madison Square Gardens ? We simply mean to point out that promoting is a business, and a clever business too. The puhlic looks upon it as a garn¬ ele. But vve feel that it is the puhlic that does the gambling. Hovv often have the fans eagerlv flocked to a fight that had ali the earmarks of a natural, only to meet vvith disappointment as in Miami. On the other hand, a promoter must shift the scenes back stage and manipulate plans to suit himself not always the puh¬ lic. That is why the “building up process” of some unknovvn foreign fighter has become sueji an important business. A box- er who is being groomed by the interested officials had these men (meaning managers as .we!I as promoters) acting as inter¬ ference men. In other vvords, if ,any impending harm should be- fall its pet, they are readv to guard against it. If a fighter gets vvithin this sanctum he is made. If not, vvell, vve have Riško as an example.

Wednesday evening Eu- clid came in body to view the works of art. Mr. Ruttar of Euclid was successful in organ- izing a party of more than two hundred people to come he was also successful in inducing Mr. Ely the Mayor of Euclid in Corn¬ ing and addressing the assetn- bled. That was the crowd for the opening evening. On other ivenings the crowds- came to ;et a view of the extraordin- iry exhibit. To make things more interest ing local artists in mušic have been kind in their offers to give numbers eacih evening. The ar¬ tists who appeared were not from this locality only but the programs of the evenings in- cluded visiting artist from Jugo- slavia. On the opening eve¬ ning Mr. Svetozar Banovec, Op- eratic 'tenor, thrilled the open¬ ing night crowd. On Sunday eve¬ ning the voice of the other op- eratic star Miss.

Hand in hand with the ar- tistry of Mr. Jakac the artis- tic decorations of Miss Julia Vo- kach of Julia’s Flower Shoppe must be mentioned for two rea- ;ons. The first for the fine taste wit)h which Ithe decora- dons were handled and the sac- rificing špirit that Miss Vokach did the work. Though the dec¬ orations are done in the špirit of the exihibit they 'blend so well and give such an atmogphere that they felt and appreeiated rather then commented upon and that is the summit of dec- oration that they felt not ae- tually seen. In the špirit of do- ing ali tih at she could in making the exhibit a success Miss Vo¬ kach has voluntarily made the decorations not with the idea of profiting from the work (she did it without pay) but to lend an atmosphere to the wihole affair. In how she succeeded the tribute of the people who visit the ex- position is a sure sign that they are appreeiated. on the portrait because they are mine’ is the way some approach the problem becaujse they do not understand that 'the pur- pose of the artists portrait is not to mechanically reproduce but to reproduce an impression of the person as the artists sees it.” Mr. Božidar Jakac conducted the class through ali the galler- ies of his exhibit and told of some of the personal things that are connected with picture mak¬ ing and the reaction that one has in making a picture. In one of the most unusual pictures that decorates the Grand Can- yon gallery he tjold the class that he thought it would be his last picture because he stood in three feeti of snov? working with ali the sped he could and final- ly succeeded to finish after many hours of labor. It was indeed an unusal eve¬ ning for the members of the Slovene School and they were af- forded an unusual opportunity to studying pictures from the artists point of view and at the same time learn a new set of technical a!nd other Slovene words because of the ivhole ex- planation was conducted in Slo¬ vene only. The Letter Opener AN APOLOGY On behalf of the- Comrade lodge I wisih to apologize, to everyone who attended our play last Sunday, for our failure in npt providing a dance after the performance. We are not trying to offer excuses of any nature, but, we would like to explain that due to the uhforseen circujn- stances which delayed the open¬ ing of the program and which prolohged it beyond the time we had set for the termination of it, we did not think it advisable to clear the hali. SCOTT - SHARKEY AFFAIR PASSION PLAY ČAST The clearing and preparing of the hali for dancing would have taken thirty-five minutes at the very least and, as the program came to an end at 11:10 P. M., would only have allowed time enough for one or two dances because of the nearness of the closing hour which was set for 12:00 o’clock. Our original plans Vere to have the program start at 7:30 sharp and to have it last not longer than 10:30 at the most, which would have allow ed everyone an hour for danc¬ ing. We realize that we have offended many of you because of our failure to fulfill our con- tract and we sincerely hope that you may see it from our point of view and that you may be lenient in your censure of us and of our eonduct of the pro¬ gram. We regret to report that the mother of one of our leading ac tor s in the play, Joe Jarc, died early Monday morning.
