ILLNESS LIGHT THIS WINTER.

, In conversation with several ply
sicans in the city, it was stated by
each of them that this season has
been an unusually healthful one, few
attacks OF severe colds being report
ed, and no epidemics or diseases pre-
Walent. Pneumonia, at all times a
dreaded sickness, has not as yet Wis
tied the community, and very few
fevers have been treated. The
checkered weather conditions would
have seemed to create more illness
than has been noted, but owing to
certain precautionary methods taken,
which are recommended, not only by
physicians, but heralded in the daily
paper and monthly magazines, it is
believed that the people of this coun
lt.y will gradually educate themselves
as to how they may take better care
Of their bodies and minds.

daily prayer meetings were held dur
ing class hours and special address

churchmen.
The practice is a charitable one.
The life of the student body is the
one topic of prayer and devotion,
above all else. OF course, the sue

uttered, but that which prompted
the minds. of educators in setting
apart certain week each year. was
for purpose good in itself-that OF

Two Arctic Enemlsa.

Since the beginning Of time there
probably has been enmity between the
polar bear and the walrus. Except for
the walrus, bruins reign over the arc
tic regions has been almost unchal-
lenged since the race Of mammoths
passed. All the hardy flesh eaters that
inhabit the bleak, unfertile northland
are his natural prey. But most Of all
he depends upon the seals and sea
lions for his food There is only one
animal that is powerful enough to
defend itself and offspring against the
polar bears attack, the huge and cum
brous walrus. but its movements are
SO slow and awkward when out Of

Dear Sir:
AS you are aware of the fact, that
we have had grand proposition pre-
sented to us as business men, the
establishment of a condensed milk
plant in our city, which means to-
tai expenditure of at least $75,O00.0O
and when completed would give EN-.
ployment annually to at least fifty
hands, as you are wide awake bust
ness man, and have several houses
for rent, some Of which at this time
are standing idle can you not see
what plant of this kind would mean
to you alone regardless of the rest
OF our community? Would not this
plant when completed mean an ad
dition of at least thirty families from
outside, and would not this be ben
eft to each one of.our business men,
Has it not been with us in the
past, that we took too much for grant
ed, with institutions of this kind, thai
they would have to locate here, and
hasn't it invaribly been the case they
have slipped through our fingers one
by one. Do we want to see il
again?
There will be no excuse for us this
time to offer as business men ant
citizens, If we fail to have this plan
located here, for the opportunit!

the beautiful little ely of which W.
are justly proud, including its light
ing system, water power, telephone
system and railroad facilities, have
we anything to fear from other neigh
boring cities, and as you know wid'
awake community with the facilities
at our fingers ends, should not b'
afraid to tackle any Of these enter
prises. AS you understand these mel
are not coming here asking for aid
or selling stock, simply desiring oul
cooperation showing them that th'
business men desire this manufactur
ling plant to locate here and give
them their support. Then, what al
opportunity this is knocking at oul
door. Now the question is, shall W,
open the door and let them IN or shal
we again add another bar and keel
