Sophomore Minstrels at High School Features Convocation Period of High School Thursday Afternoon Fine Program. From Friday's Dally Another success in Plattsmouth high school convocation programs was scored yesterday when the Sopho more Minstrels were presented under the auspices of the class of 193C. The idea of presenting a minstrel with the traditional chorus, end-men, in terlocutor, specialty numbers and band, was a novelty which was most enthusiastically received by the stu dent body. Arthur Warga and Floyd McCarty were the black-face end- men and produced a list of amusing Jokes on high school students, with the assistance of th? interlocutor. Stephen Davis. When the curtain went up on the opening chorus, the following appeared in the line in ad dition to those already mentioned: Mr. George Jeager, violinist, Mrs. Robert Walling, pianist, Wilda John son, Marjorie Fitch, Betty Bulin, and Aimee Jane Thomas cf the class, Mrs. Margaret Hirz, soloist and Edward Hadraba, class president. In the background furnishing the music was Herbert Minor's orchestra, com posed of Stuart Porter, Kenneth Armstrong, Wm. Henrichsen, Don Cotner, Arthur Kopp, Herbert Minor, and Aulton Rolland. The clever program, interspersed with music and chorus numbers and a list of anecdotes was widely com mented upon as one of the best con vocation programs this year. Mr George Jeager presented two beau tiful violin solos, with Mrs. Robert Walling as accompanist. The stu dent body has wanted to hear him all year and were delighted that the sophomores were able to persuade him to corns from his busy field of ac tivity. "An Easter Parade" was a pleas Ing chorus and orchestra number. Mrs. Margaret Hirz, ever popular singer of present day song hits, was called upon by the student body for three numbers. Her accompaniment was played by Glen Woodbury. As a closing selection, the orchestra play ed a special arrangement of "Mood Indigo," with the four sophomore harmonizers singing the chorus. This quartet was composed of Wilda Johnson. Marjorie Fitch, Betty Bu lin, and Aimee Jane Thomas. The committee in charge of ar rangements for this program was composed of Stephen Davis, chair man; Edward HauraDa, president; Betty Bulin, Joe Hendrix, Donald Warga, Floyd McCarty, and Mr. Rus sell Reeder, class sponsor. This com mittee had been hard at work on this program for the past three weeks and the response which they received from the student body was ample evidence of the success of their work.

Harrisburg, in Banner county, ju;t south of Gering, 'retained honors as the county seat with the lowest tax on the basis of 1933 figures just com piled, but Hayes Center displaced Thedford as the county seat with the lowest tax of those making a town levy. Gering's total tax on each one thou sand dollars valuation was- $02.50. an increase from $50.60 in 1932. Ful- lerton, which had the second highest tax in 1932 with $51.81, increased its figure to 59.70 to remain second high. Clay Center was third with a tax of $56. S9 per'one thousand dol lars valuation, and North Platte, whose $50.75 in 1932 Was third high, dropped to fourth last year with a tax of $56.44. Plattsmouth has a total tax rate per thousand on valuation of $51.80 according to the figures from the of fice of the tax commissioner. Scotts Bluff High. Harrisburg and Arthur, neither of which makes town levies, were the low county seat towns on totals both years, Harrisburg reporting a total of $17. and Arthur $19.92 for 1933. Scotts Bluff county had the high- est strictly county government tax per one thousand dollars valuation bcth years and Gering's school tax of $30 per one thousand dollars val uation last year gave it the high school tax. Valentine had been high on schools the preceding year. Ful- lerton's city tax of $30.13 per one thousand dollar valuation topped the municipal figures last year with Clay Center second at $2S.10. Burt County First Rank. Burt county, which had the third lowest strictly county levy in 1932, moved into .first rank last year but cutting its levy for county purposes to $1.71 on one thousand dollar val uation. Seward county kept second low county levy honors at $1.75 and Cuming moved from fourth to third by cutting its figure from $1.98 to $1.90. Center had the lowest school tax ast year, cutting from 5.80 to $2.40 per one thousand dollar valu ation. Hayes Center cut its municipal tax from $5 to $2 to show the lowest city tax and Burwell, keeping its figure at $4.50 moved from third to second, changing places with Falls City, whose total raised from $3.50 to $4.60. Mynard Club Plans to Give a Minstrel Show Raymond Cook as Director cf Forth coming Entertainment at the Community Euilding. Lovers of clean minstreel3 that i3 chock full of snappy harmony and side-spiitting jckes are to be given an opportunity to enjoy a treat of this kind as rehearsals are now in progress for the Mynard Minstreals of 1934, to be given by the Mynard Community club at their hall in My nard on the evenings of February 15 and 16. The committee having the arrange ments in charge is composed of Ray mond Ccok, Vivian Hild, Ogla Wiles and Lawrence Leonard, whose ability to present the finest entertainment has fo well been demonstrated on numerous previous occasions. That Raymond Cook is directing the min strel is positive assurance of its suc cess as an entertaining and laugh provoking show for his ability as a past master of minstrels is well es tablished in this part cf the state. There will be a mixed chorus of ten voices composed of Peggy Hirz and Grace Livingston, sopranos; Lawrence Leonard, Arthur Hild and Towner Livingston, tenors; Lillian Neilsen and Vivian Hild, contraltos and Glen Kraeger, Richard Spangler and Henry Hild, basse?. Thi3 chorus will be heard in one of the finest collection of minstrel ongs offered from a local stage. There will be solos by Peg Hirz, whose beautiful voice has so often pleased audiences in this community, as well as solos by Dick Livingston, Lawrence Leonard, Richard Spang- er and Ray Bourne. As a minstrel show is not complete without an old fashioned trombone "smear," Sher man cole, one of the blackface comedians, will operate the slip-horn n that capacity. Two of the highlights of the min strel are the ladies quartette and the male quartette. Lovers of close harmony have a treat in store for them in the numbers the ladies quar tette will render while those who pre fer the "Hot-cha" songs will be more than pleased with the male quar tette numbers. The committee was fortunate in securing Eddie Wehrbein, talented young man of this community, as interlocutor. The fun-makers of the show were chosen from those who have so ably demonstrated their abil ity along this line on numerous otn- er occasions and the program will j list Ray Bourne, Dick Livingston, Sherman Cole and Homer Spangler. The Oleo, or second part of the show, will feature the now famous blackface team of Bennett & Cook, those two black clouds of hilarity, who will feature a specialty which they call "Two Big Pigs," absolutely guaranteed to be a riot. Several other specialties will be featured in cluding fifteen minutes of "Devoe's Astounding Magic," which always captivates the attention of the aud ience. One of the interesting features of the show is that the admission is so very reasonable, it being held down to 25c for adults and 10c for chil dren 12 years of age or under, for re served seats. Because ofthe wide spread interest in the Mynard Min strel Show the management suggests the public secure reserved seats in advance. These may be secured from the ticket committee or at Mauzy's drug store. The public is always welcome at Mynard and as their club has made extensive improvements, necessitat ing consiueraDie outlay or money, they are taking this means of raising funds with which to meet their obli gations and it is hoped the public will respond by taking advantage of an evening of entertainment, guar anteed to please.

That stood out in the open plain, Never became a Forest King, But lived and died a scrubby thing, i The man who never had to toil. Who never had to win his share Of sun and sky and light and air. Never became a manly man But lived and died as he began. The stronger wind, the rougher erees, The further sky, the greater length; The more the storm the more the strength; By sun and cold, by rain and snows, In tree or man good timber grows. Where thickest stands the forest growth We find the patriarchs of both. And they hold converse with the stars Whose broken branches show th scars Of many winds and much strife This is the common law of life. Selected. Beau Brummel New Patterns Sanforized Shrank.
