Luther is somewhat of a garc® ner himself, on a small scale. On a piece of ground about 25x75 feet he raised enough vegetables. to supply the family during the season, and will have some for winter use. Corn and tomatoes are his specialties this year.

He has started out right. : CONCERT WAS A SUCCESSFUL ONE The concert given by Miss Rae Potter, assisted by local talent, under the auspices of the Catholic Ladies’ Altar society, at the high school au- ditorium Tuesday evening was well attended despite the threatening weather and those who came were more than repaid for the effort, for Miss Potter’s voice would delight any one who enjoys music. Her tech- nique was faultless and showed off best, perhaps, in the bird song, but ing to those who believe in the agri-|brought out her voice to the best! advantage. After each. rendition the. applause was so determined that |Miss Potter was compelled to respond with encores and she delighted the audience with several captivating Irish and English old-time ballads. Miss Mae Benton gave another old Trish bailad that brought forth its full share of applause and the mixed quartette, consisting of Misses Dor- an and Bossard and Messrs. Blasing and Carpenter, which has established a reputation for harmony work in the village, proved as popular as ever. Miss Burlingame gave two very clev- er little readings. "Miss Potter has worked hard the past two years to perfect her voice for concert work and, in company with her mother, will leave for Watertown, N. Y., to morrow where they will visit Mrs. Pennington, formerly Miss Minnie Potter, for a short time.

At the same time they will all joim the Herald-Re- view in wishing them pleasant sur- roundings and prosperity. Mr. Gard-! ner, who joins Mr.. Dewey in the enterprise, is an experienced lumber- man, who has been with the King Lumber company for some time and understands the business thoroughly. These two enterprising young men will make a success of the venture, if, success is to be had in that country. To Get A Fine FR Here’s Your Chance Suit of Clothes EE!

How about that one of yours? Does it need repairing? Better look that and your other win- ter clothes over and take them to The Art Tailors right away so as to be sure of them when old man Winte wakes up for keeps.
