sons, OF WnOm Mr. bufDonk naQ long /
been q memb Der, attended In a body.
To promote the interest and growth of |
the lodge, the Woodmen decided at their |
last meeting to choose sides and engage In |
contest, the side bringing In the most
new members during the next three months
to be given banquet by the vanquished.
A plan similar to this worked very well In
the Good Templar Lodge some time ago,
and 1t is hoped the same success will be
attained In this case.
There will be special train leave this
village on Tuesday, Sept. 6, at 2 p. M, for
Barton village and will return as soon as
| the voting is over. The ride will be free
| to all voters, and 1t Is hoped that every
voter at this end of the town will plan to
| attend. Remember that vote for Bell
| and Stearns Is vote for Roosevelt and
Fairbanks. In addition to this large
| vote for Barton will increase the number
| of delegates from our town to the state
| and county conventions and therefore give
us increased power In these conventions.
| Do not fail to exercise your right to vote
Sept. 9th.
