CERT AND DANCE.
THE SCHUBERT SYMPHONY CO.
BY THE REBBKAHS
Two Rare Musical Attractions for Ken
drick, the First on December 16 and
the Latter on December ag.
Of course we have told you about the
Cosgrove concert and dance following,
occur neX (; Wednesday, December
16, but then we don't want you to for
get it. All people love music, aud fine
music, especially by well known art
ists, is a rare treat. Every one of this
company is an artist and have a repu
tation to maintain. The Qun club
knew what it was securing, and as can
be readily seen from the program, the
repertoire gives a fine variety of music
all of which is high class. Then, as to
the dance which starts' at 10 o'clock
p. m. and continues until 1:30, the
best music ever had will make one's
feet move in spite of themselves, and
the crowd will be such as will give
pleasure to be among.
Tickets are on sale at the White drug
store, where you can secure them at
the reasonable rate of 35 and 50 cents;
dance tickets only 50 cents extra.
Don't make a mistake and overlook
tills, aud also you want to arrive early
aud avoid the rush, as the sale of seats
two weeks ahead is phenomenal, and
the supply won't last long.
THE SCHUBERT SYMPHONY CO.
The Rebekah lodge has secured the
Schubert Symphony to appear here
Tuesday evening, December 29, and
are expecting a crowded bouse. We
give a few press comments relative to
this company and would also state
that several of our citizens who have
heard them pronounce the perform
ance as par and above.
The audience was one of the most
demonstrative in the history of the
Ladies' Matinee Musicale and every
uumtier was applauded to the echo.—
The Spokesman Review
It is rarely, indeed, that Denver is
favored with such vocal execution and
instrumental as well. It was a rare
privilege, thoroughly appreciated by
the audience, to listen to the wouderful
voices of the quartette in their har
monious blending aud surprising
range, and there was not a number on
the program but secured an encore.—
Denver Daily News
When I received the printing of the
Schubert Symphony Club aud Lady
quartette, for our benefit. I was most
agreeably surprised at its variety and
fine quality, which 1 b in thorough
keeping with the entertainmen t given
us last night. Tne fine quartette and
splendid recitations did much to add
to our pleasure and amusement.—

LODGES ELECT OFFICERS.
Several Secret Orders in Session This
Week.
This being about the close of the
year the different secret orders repre
tent ed in Kendrick have been bolding
tbeir regular elections and the follow
ing are the people who will guide and
manage the respective lodges the com
ing term:
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.
The Knight of Pythias lodge, Cen
tral No. 23, have elected G. W. Sup
piger, «1. C.; J. J. Hamley, V. C.; W.
Crews. Prel.; D. T. A. Mackintosh,
M. W.; C. F. Hamilin, K. of R. & 8 .;
T. A. Hunter, M. of F.; A. W. Gordon,
M. of E.; Frank Brocke, M. at A.;
Chas. Chandler, I. G.; J M Hill O G
A. Hill, re-elected trustee.
ODD FELLOWS.
The Odd Fellows, we believe, have
elected officers, but are not ready to
give the names to the public. It is
very likely tbls order and the Rebekah
lodge will hold a joint public installa
tion, though this is not definitely de
cided upon.
WOODMEN OF THE WORLD.
The Woodman officers elected some
few weeks ago are:
M. Parks, S C; J. C. Bibb, A L; W.
M. McCrea, Clerk; A. W. Gordon, Bkr
C. F. Hamlin, Mngr., 18 months; Jos.
Freuchtel, Escort.
MASONS.
The Masonic order held their elec
tion Thursday evening and installed
the same night. The officers of this
lodge for the next year are:
D. T. A. Mackintosh, W M; J. R.
Haizlip, 8 . W.. J. W. Stoneburner, J
W ; N Brocke, Treas; H W Weber,
Sec; Geo Brewster 8 D; Henry 8 witzer
J D; II N Nelson Tyler; A. Hanson
C Wurtemberg, Stewarts.
A Good Move
The school bosrd have ranted the
corner building opposite the Gazette
office and will turn the same into a
school room. It is their lutention to
place Mise Morris in charge, giving her
the chart and first and second grades,
and giving to Miss Hunter all of the
3rd and 4th grades. This will for the
present relieve the congested condi
tion and allow the teachers a chance
to do good work.
The present situation demanded im
mediate relief, as Miss Hunter had
close to 80 scholars and four grades,
while Miss Fisher had some 50 pupils
and four grades, Miss Morris has about
40 and the same grades as Miss Hunter
A solution of the difficulty had to le
secured aud that immediately, and the
present one will not only solve it for
the present but give the board an idea
as to the best method of grading and
consolidating for the future.
This scheme will place about 50
scholars in each room and but two
grades, which can be handled to ad
vantage. The extra work entailed in
hearing and managing four grades is
too great where there are many pupils
and in the larger schools a teacher has
but one grade, for it is much easier to
teach 80 pupils of one grade than 40 of
three grades.
For the present the lower school
house will be abandoned and it is pos
sible, if tills plan works ad vantag ously
that the board will have a radical
change to present to our people, look
ing toward an improved system of
grading and high school method.
A gift at Xmas tune brings more
joy perhaps lhau at any other time
of the year. We have gifts for every
body and at prices hardly worth con
sidering . Our line of holiday presents
are the finest in town. A (J White & Co
