PAGE FOUR THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE It Now Holds This . yi Price Advantage Essex quality quite naturally creates an expectancy. of high price. Compared on every hand to costly cars it would be strange if many did not fall into that error. - . Thus actual price comparisons give Essex true value in sharp relief. How many of the cars in the Essex price range do you ever embrace in the same thought wit it in regard to fine- ness, ability and distinction? And do not the cars that you consider in the Essex quality class invariably cost hundreds of dollars more? In reaching a standard by which to understand Essex values you must consider such price contrasts, as well as facts bearing on ability and dependence. Such ex- amination will convince you also of the unusual value the Essex represents. 216 MISS FREEBURG FASTEST TYPIST AT HIGH SCHOOL _Bismarck Student.

It was the capable.man- ner in which it was interpreted.. The Dakota Playmakers ‘never have done better acting. Im many respects, it was the most finished production they have given; certainly it was better mounted than any play they have given, But I will go farther; in the ensemble work, in the grouping of characters, in the movings back and forth of tne men and women, it was smoother, more artistic _ and more finished than in any play they have g given. For ‘this, one gives praise to Mrs. John B, Cooley, who had entire direction of the. play.. One must also give her credit for the finished and intelligent pictures each person gave. It was an uncommonly fine bit of work, Elmer Grandson as Garrett Foster, and Verneita Thompson as “The Rose O’ Plymouth Town,” carried off the honors. Theirs were“splendid pictures featured by delightful shading and fine intelligence in varying the mood. Mr. Grandson made an unusually. good hero for despite the fact that he stole corn and kisses, he was the hero. ‘He was just the sort of a fel- low who could steal either corn or kisses’ and get away with it. Miss Thompson gave a delightful visulaiza- tion of Rose. Her varying moods ‘were excellently portrayed. MISS NIELSON ~ OFFERS PRIZES Grand Forks, N. D., March 26.—Miss Minnie J.
