Arc." will be presented in the Tech

hundred voices, under the direction of
John W. Phillips. The soloists will be
Miss Mary Buttorff, soprano; John D.
Fisher, tenor, and Rojs Harman, basso,
and the Cpdegrove Orchestra will play.
This oratorio centers about the beau
tiful and true history of "the Maid
of Orleans," beginning with a May fes
tival at Boremy, France, where she
was bcrn. In tlie midst of the flowers
and song. Joan appears, saddened by
the fate of her hcloveu country and
hearing "The Voices'' which bid her
give her very life for its help. Finally
[securing- the necessary aid, Joan as
sumes man's garb, a suit of armor,
, sword, banner and steed and soon af
ter entering Orleans with her army, the
siege is lifted and there is milch re
joicing among the French. Other vic
tories follow befitre the hour of re
versal, when Jo&n is captured and led
to execution at Roueus.
The scenes of the f<jur historical Mays
have been retained in the oratorio—
the May of Inspiration; tho May of
Victory: the May of Fall and the May
of Sacrifice.
The music is most beautiful and the
chorus does its part ! n just as finished
style as the soloists. A large audience
should greet these singers. The event

Cold Storage Law
Amendents Ready
The dairy and food
cold storage law amendments which
will be introduced into the Senate to
night by Senator P. W. Snyder, of Blair,
will contain a provision that the own
er of foods stored beyond the legal
limit in a cold storage warehouse shall
be held liable to prosecution and not
the warehouseman.
The amendments ore designed to
clarify the law and to make some prol
- which will enable it to be more
easily administered after the experience
of a couple of years. The clause rela
tive to "outlawed" food would permit
the state to sue a man who allowed
foodstuffs to.spoil or to rerTTain in stor
age beyond the legal limit instead of
placing them on sale; Ther will also
be given authority for the dairy and
food commissioner to render unfit for
use foods stored beyond the legal lim
it. as can now be done with rotten eggs.
The administration will likely oppose
the Jones cold storage bill which pro
vides for season to season storage.

DO MY SINFUL FOLLIES PAY?
IS A QUESTION FOR HUSBANDS
DO MY SINFUL lOU.IES PAY?
IS QUESTION FOR HUSBANDS
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Copyright, I9lti, Star Company.
This is a question I would like
every man who reads these lines to
ask himself, if, in his inmost con
science, he finds that the words I
am about to write apply to him.
A great tragedy occurred in court
circles: a princess of royal blood
killed the paramour of. her husband.
The wife was only a scoro of years
old, and slw had been married to the
man of her choice only two ychrs.
She was young, beautiful and lov
ing; she had signed away her right
to the throne in order to marry the
man she loved. She was an expec
tant mother. Yet all these proofs
of her devotion and sincerity did not
awaken in her husband's heart a suf
ficiently high sense of manly honor
and pride to keep him froni allowing
a physical passion for another woman
to dominate him.
And to make the insult to his
young wife still more pronounced, he
brought the actress who had won h'a
heart to his home —under the sams
roof with his wife.
The wife learned of the intrigue,
and in a moment of terrible anger—
that anger which is insanity—killed
her rival. Did the giving why to
a physical infatuation at the sacrifice
of all noble ideals pay the husband?
Hundreds of men wlio read these
words are tempted from within and
frcm without to yield to fascinations
similar to that which placed a Prince
before the world in the role of the
most contemptible man living.
Men by nature, habit and custom
of society are subjected to such temp
tations and have always held to the
belief that they were less reprehen
sible when they yielded than a
woman under similar conditions.
One Question for Every Married Man
to Ask Himself Frankly.
Putting that question aside, the
one question for a married hian to
ask himself is. Does it pay? Does
it pay to follow every impulse of
the desires- atvd appetites and passions,
and to weaken the will power and
vitiate the moral fibre by self-induU
gence?
Does it pay to deceive a woman
who loves and trusts you, or to defy
her and argue that your nature is
one requiring more license and in
dulgence than hers?
Would it not eventually bring you
more happiness were you to control
those lawless impulses hy the exer
cise of your higher nature, and to
live up to the ideal of. the woman
who loves you? It will become eas
ier each time you resist, just as it
will become more and more difficult
each time you yield.
Think it over, and ask yourself
which pays best, as you recall the
tragedies occurring daily in the world
through this self-indulgence of hu
man beings. Then there is the grati
fication and pleasure you find in the
drink hab^t.
Does that pay?
You gain a half hour, or perhaps
two or three hours, of mirth and
freedom from care and then you go
home to pain, grieve or disgust some
loving woman—mother, wife or
daughter, perhaps all tbr~.
You do this only once in a while,
perhaps, and say that a woman
should be liberal-minded enough not
to make a scene over such an oc
currence. I agree with you that the
wise woman treats a man who is,
as a rule, sober and kind, with great
care when-he first yields to the weak
ness of drink.
She should think of him as some
thing to pity and to help until he
is sober and able to reason about
his conduct. Then she should not
hesitate to make him relaize, as
quietly and kindly as possible, how

he has fallen in her estimation, and
how he has hnrt her pride and respect.
Men are In the habit of making a
jest of such lapses, and they think
a woman hnrd-hearted and narrow
minded who regards thorn us trag
edies. But while a tender and
loving woman will treat a drunken
man with pity and consideration, she
cannot feel the same admiration and
respect and pride which ari elements
in every great love.
Aside from hurting her feelings
and wounding her heart, the hus
band or father who frequently conies
home intoxicated digs a ditch at the
foundation on which his happiness
Is laid—the solid respect and admir
ing love of the woman of his house
hold.
Does it pay?
Then there is the delight men find
in the gaming table.
I believe cards have helped many
a brainfagged man to keep his mind
from business and his nervous sys
tem from collapse. I believe clubs
are good institutions.
Hut does it pay to make the home
secondary to the club, and to be
come so debauched with the gam
ing mania that you sit at the table
night after night until dawn and rush
through your business in order to get
back to the club?
Does it pay to let the habit grow
upon you until you find any other
amusement a bore and an evening
at home so perceptible a tax upon
you that it destroys its pleasure for
your family?
Aside from the fact that you are
destroying your better nature, your
real immortal qualities, by self-in
dulgence in all or any of these
habits herein enumerated, does the
pleasure you get out of. them pay
you for all they cost yourself and
others dear to you?
Why Not Right About Face and Start
New Line of Conduct?
If not, why not right-about-face
and start over in a new line of cou
duct? You need not be a "goody
goody" man; you need not shut
yourself from all worldly pleasures
or give up everything but duty.
But suppose you try how it seems
to bo faithful to your marriage vows,
to avoid crossing the line of sober
self-control and to leave the club
and the card table by mid-night and
to pass three or four evenings with
your family each week. Suppose
you try this for one year and see
whether it does not pay better divi
dends in the long run than the other
course.
Look at the matter of these in
dulgences as an investment just
as you look over your financial mat
ters to see what has best paid you
during the year. And then confess
to yourself whether the gain in
"pleasure" may not be counter-bal
anced by the continual assessments
of shame, fear, deception, reproach
and loss of self-respect, not to mention
taxes of physical pain and discom
fort.
Does it pay?
