The play given by.the High School Tuesday night of last week was first class in every respect. There was a large crowd io attendanoe and every one seemed to enjoy the performance. There were three Aunt Janes taking nart in the performance but I guess we will have to give Aunt Jane, the high kicker, the medal, as she was certainly there with the goods. - We must, give credit where credit is due, and we wish to give th Professor and hia students credit for the able way in which the play was presented. The Grammar Department held their graduation exeioisea Wednesday nieht of last week. A very nice program was rendered, and a pleasant evening was well spent by all prusent.

Ped berg presented the diplomas, as Mr. KnufmBn was somewhat under the weather and unable to attend. We wish all the -graduates every success as each one branches out in his or her own wora. IONE SCHOOL BANQUET. - The Commencement Exercises ot the lone Schools closed on Friday eve ning of last week with a monster ban quet to which everyone in the district, and even from the surrounding coun try, had been invited. Mrs. Willard Blake was the chiarman of the general committee, of arrangements; Mrs. Chick chairman of the committee on solicitation; and Mrs. 0. J. Perning ton chairman of the committee on tables and decorations. The splendid ability of these ladies, and the able manner in which they were assisted by the committees, aud othoi ladies of he town was plainly in evidence by the admirable manner in which the banquet was conducted. That was ( ert n'nly some ft e '. About 450 plates were laid at tables groaning under I hi load cf tempting edibles of such variety and quattity as to satisfy the most exacting epicure oi the most voracious gourmand. And the crowd that came was fully up to expectations it being estimated at 5l0 persons. The graduates of both the 8th and 12th grades were seated at a table tastily decorated with their respective class colors, and the rapidity with which the fond disappeared from the table proved that th gastronomical side of ilfe had also received some training. On the whole it was the most successful function aud on the largest scale of any ever attempted in lone. It Involved lots of wora to spread such a feast in Walker's big rink, but it was the sight of a life time to see those splendidly arranged tables: a feast royal in the fullest sense of the word. The applause ac corded the women on the evening of the spread was well merited, but mention should also be made of the help rendeied by the High School boys in prepaiing the rink for the event and in clearing away the remains after it was all over. Surely the work of preparation wna well worth while, and since this first attempt was suHi an unqualified success why not make this an annual event here in lone. Such occasions as this, where all the community can meet on a com mon ground, are all too few and far between. Let's appreciate a gcod thing when wa have seen (and tasted) it and declare for more such get-together banquets. We must nut forget one of the main spokes in the wheel of this happy event. Professor Kaufman who has been with us for the past two years, shouldered his part of the load and did it good naturedly and willingly. We wish him every success in his new field of labor atj Blaine, Wash. , where he goes in a few days. "Generally debiliated for years.!

Is a creek farm of 950 acres; 500 acres of good wheat land; 25 acnes now growing alfalfa, and as much more can easily be put in as it comes under ditch.
