Sank Centres Fire Fighters
Listen to Fine Sermon From
Rev. F. n. OehIer

Sunday evening the Sank Centre
Fire Department attended service at
the Congregational church, the
occasion being the annual memorial
service for former members of the
department-seven in number-who
have died.
!. The Syening was rainy, hence the
attendance was not as large as usual,
but about thirty of the boys braved
the storm and felt we'll repaid, for the
services were very enjoyable.
In the first place a special musical
program had been prepared. A sextet
consisting OF Mesdames James and
Austin, sopranos; Mrs. Lamb and
Miss Carr, altos; A. w. Austin, tenor;
]. H. Haddock, bass, sang beautiful
anthem. Mesdames James and Austin
rendered duet. and Mrs. James sang
. solo. sEheseseiections were rendered
in q highly artistic manner and all
enjoyed them. Miss Dahl presided at
the piano and DR.. Lamb at the organ.
Mr.. Oehler delivered a fine sermon,
taking for his text the words "Bear We
one another's burdens Mr.. Oehler
emphasized the. importance of mutual
effort and enlivened his sermon with
numerous illustrations. The dis
course was of practical nature and
teemed with excellent advice to the
firemen.
The firemen were much pleased with
the services and Chief Geo. Fish
authorizes The Herald to extend to
Mr.. Oehier and the church the thanks
OF the department for their courtesy,
for, the excellent sermon and the fine
music, salf OF which are greatly
appreciated.

PIANO RECITAL
Pupils of Mrs. William !. Henshaw
Appear Before the Public In
Their Annual Function

One of the chief events in musical
circles in Sank Centre is the annual
recital of the pupils OF Mrs. William
I. Henshaw. ~ i.
The function this yeanEas no ex-
ception to the rule-namely; that the
young people who have studied under
Mrs. Henshaw have received instruc-
ton OF high order and have profited
thereby. 9.S
The recital took place Monday
evening in the Congregational church.
The auditorium was handsomely
decorated for the occasion with potted
plants and cut flowers.
The church was comfortably seated
and all were interested and entertained.
The ladies appeared in evening toilets
making the recital a dress affair.
There were nineteen numbers on the
program, the music varying to show
the capacities and abilities of the
different pupils. Those who took part
were little Miss Hildreu Ingram,
Masters Howard Ingram and Fay
Cooper; Misses Pearl Parkinson,
Hattie Lamb, Bishop, Lathrop, Loretta
and Title Book.
The little ones acquitted themselves
creditably and their parents were
justly proud of them. The older
pupils performed their parts in a
musicianly manner, showing the
effects of careful training. Applause
was liberal for all the performers.
After the program both teacher and
pupils received the hearty rongratula-
tons of relatives and friends.

A PRETTY CANTATA
Children of The Congregational
Sunday School ACquit Them
selves With Great
Credit

Last Sunday being Children's Day,
the Congregational Sunday school
occupied the time for the morning
service, presenting the cantata
"Hearts of Gold"
The cantata is tuneful composition,
the different characters being a queen
and assistants and a number of girls
and boys impersonating the different
flow ers.
The handsome audience room of the
church was pret:ily decorated for the
occasion, hearts of different sizes in
gilt being suspended from festoons OF
gold colored paper from the ceiling at
the front of the pulpit platform and
the lecture room, and potted plants
and cut flowers being in evidence
everywhere.
The parts of the cantata were we'll
taken and the young people acquitted
themselves we'll. The creditable
manner in which the cantata was
presented showed that the teachers and
others in charge had expended much
time and patience in drilling the
youngsters for their performance.
Miss Dahl had charge of the music.
Special interest was taken in the
appearance of the smaller children
the little tots-who sang and acted so
naturally as to evoke great enthusiasm.
A special offering of over ten dollars
was taken at the close of the service,
thus placing the Sunday school out of
debt. Supt. w. A. Morse is greatly
pleased over the result.

THE LIDS GO ON
Minnesota Supreme Court De-
CIares for Sunday Closing
MAYORS MUST DO DUTY
Attorney General Ed Young Asserts
That He Will Prosecute Them
If They Do Not
The Sunday lids the thing.

The Sunday lids the thing.
The Minnesota supreme court has
so declared and the attorney general is
empowered to proceed against any
mayor who declines TO apply it..
The decision was handed down last
week. It is the result Of the "lid"
agitation in St. Clond, and comes as a
finale in,the case Of the state of Mime
sofa VS.. John e. C. Robinson, former
mayor of the Stearns county seat town.
While mayor Of st. Cloud, COM
plants were filed with him that the
saloons in St. Cloud we're running on
Sunday. He declined to proceed
against them.
Charges were then brought against
the mayor to recover penalty OF from
500 to $500, under section 1861 of the
revised laws of 1905. Under these
laws the mayor also forfeited his Office
and permitted the attorney general to
enforce the laws and close up tn
saloons on Sunday.
Later Mayor Robinson resigned and
became state senator from that district.
The matter was brought into the
district court at St. Cloud by Mayor
Robinson, who demurred to the
complaint on the ground that it was
up to the common council or the
county attorney to take action. Judge
L. l.. Baxter of st. Cloud overruled
the demurrer and Robinson appealed
to the supreme court.
The decision of last week thus
sustains the ruling of the district
court. This decision holds that any
mayor is under obligation to see that
the state laws are enforced. If he
fails, the attorney general may sue for
civil damages in addition, to have
the mayor ousted from office.
This is regarded as sweeping
decision of great Importance in the
efforts for law enforcement.
In a published interview Attorney
General Young expresses himself
highly pleased with the decision,
which he says settles every phase of
the question decisively. In his
opinion the moral effect of the de-
cision will be great.
Following close upon the heels of
the supreme court decision came
surprise in st. Paul, which city has
been "wide open" in pretty nearly
every sense Of the word for fifty
years. Robert A.. Smith. the present
incumbent of the mayors chair, has
filled the Office coed many times.
He has never gone on record as
favoring Sunday closing. The police
commission got together shortly sitter
the supreme court had filed its decision
and ordered the law strictly enforced.
Many interpreted this action on the
part of the police commission as a
move to save Mayor Smith from
prosecution at the hands of Ed Young.
Smith is a Democrat and Young a,
Republican and the latter, in his
campaign as gubernatorial candi-
date, would like nothing better, say
some of the wise ones, than to make
things warm for "Bob." Be that as
it may, the capital city was her.
medically sealed last Sunday for
the first time in its history and
there were hundreds Of thirsty citizens
therein.
Locally the decision had no effect
further than possibly to strengthen
the hands of Mayor Ward, who applied
the cid" with the beginning OF his
administration.

Types of Smart Auto Apparel.
Auto garments vary In many respects,
but one thing peculiar to all Is, that
wraps no matter whether short, three
quarters or full length are comfortably
full in both body and sleeves. Loose
sack coats, empire models and combina-
tons Of these two types characterize the
up-to-date auto wrap. Tans, browns and
grays are considered the best colors,
motorists long since having found that
these do not show the wear and tear Of
the road. Some very smart black gar
ments are seen, but these are confined
principally to mourning wear. Some new
novelties have recently made their ap-

some exceedingly. smart full, loose coats
which are quite as modlsh for travelling
and summer evening wear. So many peo-
pie motor to the beaches, the restau-
rants, the casinos and the roof gardens
that the auto coat has replaced the even
ing dressy wrap to a great extent. 1t
Is not unusual to see one of the fair sex
divest herself of a smart but none the
less practical all enveloping coat of silk
or mohair, yards of yelling and a bit Of
modlsh headgear to reveal an elegant
dancing or dinner frock and as faultless
q couture as though mlladl has but

The Japanese idea, possible of so many
variations, continues favorite mode in
auto wraps. No matter what the length
of the garment-it may be a short box

model-comfort is paramount. Again it
is absolutely essential that the armholo

Each succeeding day adds numbers to
the already long list of people who mo-
tor. And Of these more than half are
women, a fact easily proven If one but
observes this twentieth century Invention
wherever and whenever seen.
1t follows but naturally that automo-
bile garb should prove generally interest
ing to the feminine world at large. Even
those women who do not own their own
cars, but have friends who do, very often
possess quite as exclusive wardrobes as
the car owners themselves.
The nature of the sport demands GER
tain kinds Of garments and accessories
Common sense dictates that all envelop-
Ing garments, close fitting headgear and
practical accessories should constitute
practical motor garb, and with these fac
tors as a foundation, fashion proceeds to
work out some stunning effects in wraps
and headgear this summer.
Auto wraps are now as carefully cut
and tailored as high class man tailored
walking suits They are built of the
smartest fabrics, which appeal to this
kind OF wear, and are so attractive in
general that they are called into requl-
sition for other uses than the car.

adopted by many for motor mourning,

a utility point of view, and one and all
will agree that one cannot enjoy the
