A CHANCE TO BOOST"

| A CHANCE TO BOOST"
Sank Centre citizens have an
excellent opportunity to "boost."
The city, through committee of
its Commercial Club, has made
formal application to have the State
Girls Industrial School, provided
for by the last legislature, located
here. This committee has assur-
ances that the matter is to be
settled GU it's merits. That gives
Sank Centre an excellent chance.
There are few if any towns in the
state that possess the necessary
qualifications of site, water supply,
drainage, healthfulness and railroad
facilities to such degree as does
Sank Centre. That being the case
every citizen of this beautiful and
enterprising little city will take
pride in helping to the extent of
their ability in this very important
matter Evervbodv nusb and Sank

The esteemed St. Cloud Times,
Democratic, asserts that Bryan is
the most popular Democrat and that
he will yet be president, but is in
doubt as to whether 1908 will be
3 Democratic year. If the publisher
of The Herald was Democrat,
which be is not, he wouldn't get
weakened at this stage of the
game, for Democratic chances look
better than for several years.
Neither would he pin his faith to
the exponent of the dead and buried
ls to fallacy, when there's such
promising presidential timber right
here at home. Brace up, Bro.
Macdonald, political battles were
never won by doubling Thomasas
with back number candidate.

/ heard this good one on three we'll
known Sank Cemeteries the other day.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1907-07-04

I wonder if the Great Northern is
going to build a new station at Sank
Centre this season. Some weeks ago
word came to The Listener that plans
and specifications were prepared and
that new structure would be erected
this season to replace the old one.
But there doesn't seem to be anything
doing. OF course My friend Jimmy
Norris isn't to blame. l think he'd
like to see a new station. But all he
can do is to perform his duty here as
he has done faithfully for the past
thirty years and be on hand regularly
on pay days. But if the company is
not going to build new station this
year, what's the matter with their
mailing down few pieces Of new plank
to cover up the holes on the station
platform. That wouldn't cost so very
much and the public would be duly
thankful.

HEARD ABOUT TOWN

81 wonder" remarked we'll known
citizen the other day, why the
Library Board does not beautify the
fine lawn about the library building.
There's great opportunity to make
that bit of ground beauty spot. The
lots on which the building stands
occupy one of the most prominent
corners in town and a nicely laid out
and beautifed lawn would improve
the looks of the premises hundred
per cent. Let the board even follow
the lead of the Board OF Education,
which has set out trees and put in a
few flower beds? If that can be done
on the school grounds l fail to see
why it cannot On the library lots.
The next time run across a member
of the Library Board I'm going to put
a flea in his ear, and If that won't do
any good shall call the attention of
the city council to the matter and see
if they will not act"
A few days ago l was talking with a
man who occupies prominent place
in the community, discussing with
him the reasons why men do not at
tend church as much as women.
He said, for one thing, that he never
knew when a preacher was going to
give good sermon and when he was
going to administer a soporific.
"Now do you know" remarked this
good citizen, THAT if Rev. So and So
would just let me know when he's
going to preach good sermon I'd go
to hear him, for l consider him the
best preacher in town. But I've got
caught at church once or twice when
he was not up to his usual standard
and made up my mind not to 90 again
for awhile. Every now and then my
wife comes home and tells me what
fine sermon she heard that morn
ing, and then I'm sorry didn't go.
But never know when Pm going to
be buncoed."
81 notice you havn't been taking
any chances for the last three months
or so," remarked The Listener.
"Say, what do you smoker" And
on The Listener naming his particular
brand of the weed, the citizen pur-
chased a good cigar and went away
trying to figure out when he'd go to
church again.

1t would not hurt Minnesota to
advertise her resources. When
that new Board of immigration is
appointed possibly something will
be done. We've got the best state
in the Union and it will not do d
bit OF harm to parade the fact be-
fore the world. Get busy, some
body.

The Herald appreciates the
compliment paid it by contempt
raries who copy its utterances, bu,
it likes to have due credit given.
In it's last issue The Herald printed
a column of matter descriptive OF
the proposed electric air line rail
road between the Twin cities and
Lake Superior. This article the
St. Cloud Journal-Press copied
verbatim on the first page of its
issue of Friday last, without sug.
gestion of credit. Presume Brer
Eastman was so busy keeping tab
on Brer Macdonald he forgot the
credit line. We forgive you this
time, Alvah, but don't let it happen
again.

For the benefit of a good many
people who think they can still
purchase the Sank Centre Herald
for one dollar year i'll advance the
publisher desires to state that they
are greatly mistaken. The price of
the paper is $3.50 year without
deviation. Occasionally, on market
days and other similar occasions, a
special cash offer may lbe made, for
the same reason that merchants
offer special bargains. The regular
price of The Herald is $3.50 pei
year.

The Iowa State Board of Health
wants to put the lid on rummage
sales on the ground that they are
unsanitary. My, won't that aggre-
CATION of health regulators get the

The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1907-07-04


Say, but you ought to have seen the
fellows fall over each other to avail
themselves OF the different market day
bargains. Every man who had made
special offer had plenty of customers
and all went away happy.
And this leads me up to the ques-
ton OF whether people read advs. or
not. Why, bless your dear old, doubt
ing heart, OF course they read them.
I warrant there wasn't a man, woman
or child who received copy Of last
weeks issue of The Herald who didn't
know what special bargain every
merchant had made for market day.
IA mistake was made in the adv. CT
one of the local grocers which made
the offer unusually tempting. The
store wasn't more than open Friday
morning after the paper was out than
a woman only touched the high places
getting around to that store to take
advantage of this offer. Read advs.?
OF course they read 'em. And the
man who doesn't have an adv. in the
paper is the one that misses it, but it's
mighty hard to make some fellows see
it that way.
