4 REMAIN ON FARMS PRELATE'S ADVICE (Continued from pap* 1.) Wilhbalda Eibner accompanied the grace ful steps of the various dancing groups at the piano. A lovely picture of color and symmetric beauty was produced at the end of each movement. Twenty four girls dressed in white, green, pink and yellow took part this number and all of them acted their parts well. This was followed by the three act play, which received its name from one of Ecuador's presidents in the seventies of the last century. Moreno was killed by a fanatic who was not satisfied with the handling of the state's affairs by the president. He belonged to a group of conspirators who decided that he should take the life of Moreno. The play is remarkably well written and was staged in a manner creditable to all those who took part in it. From the dignified figure of the President himself, for which a suitable actor was found in Jos.

Special mention must be made, however, of Mathilda Schwend inger who played the part of a woman journalist to the delight of everybody present.

The cause of her demise was uremic poisoning and it was so reported by the editor but a typographi cal error eliminated the word "uremic" and gave a most unfortunate meaning which was entirely at variance with facts. We are deeply concerned and we hope that the error will be corrected by anyone who hears it repeated. life, he remarked, and guarded well the faith of their forefathers. Pointing to the splendid buildings, he spoke of the heroic labors and the true con conviction in those who were instru mental in the erection of these monu ments of worship and learning. They give testimony of the harmony that prevailed between the pastors and the people, he said. After referring to the mission just closed the Archbishop asked his hearers to turn their eyes toward the future, the day of tomorrow when those who now are not old enough to grasp the significance of the day with its memory of the past will have to take up the work so successfully carried on by their forefathers. Their tasks may even be greater and harder than those of the present and past, he said. Proper training in the parochial school, however, gives him sufficient assurance that they will be able to ulsill their duties. They are to be reared in an American atmos phere so as to make them understand the needs of their church as well as those of their country. To make good Catho li and good Americans out of them should be the first aim of their parents, concluded the Prelate. NIELSEN ENTERS NEW BUSINESS. S. P.

WILLIAM AAB TO BE MANUFACTURER (Continued from page 1.) Plant To Be Opened Soon. Mr. Aab intends to move into some other place soon, conveniently located, and where he has more facilities for the development of his manufacturing plant. For the present he remains at the old garage on South Broadway which has been bought by Mr. Nielsen. The realization of Mr. Aab's idea i. e. the erection of a manufacturing plant for his machine offers New Ulm Croesuses, little as well as big, a fine opportunity for a splendid investment. The advantages offered the city of New Ulm in case the new invention is ex ploited in our midst and Mr. Aab is not forced to move to some other city or 4ell his invention, are indeed manifold. In a few years New Ulm would be count ed among the industrial centers of the automobile world, and a great number of workingmen would be attracted to the city bringing with them a rapid growth perhaps never dreamed of before.
