The Red Cross Christmas Seals
will be sold at Willmar by the Anti
tuberculosis Society. This was de-
cided at meeting of the Society held
yesterday afternoon. Last year the
sale was made by school children, but
it was thought best not to resort to
this method this year. The seals will
be placed on sale in the principal
business houses of Willmar, and a
committee of ladies was appointed to
sell the seals at the postotfce the
week before Christmas. This com.
mittee and the days upon which they
will sell are as follows:
Thursday, Dec. 18-Mrs. H. G. Han

Official Statement
fitsss 81 {: s. L ,ss

All kinds Of absurd and grossly ex-
aggerated reports have been circulat-
ed thru the neighboring towns about
sickness aat Willmar r... At New London
we were told in all seriousness that
there were supposed to be three hun,
dred cases Of diphtheria here. An
other report from Norway Lake says
there had been sixty deaths here In
one day, etc. . No sane person should
believe: such reports as these. but 1t
seems that when people begin to talk
about epidemics, they lose all iudg-
=ment, and vie with each other to add
little. to every story they hear. We
asked DR.. Rains, health officer Of this
city to make an official statement So
that the public.may know the facts in.
the matter. The public schools Of!
Willmar have been in session sall the
month, with the exception Of two.
grade rooms which were closed to see.

these pupils whom were. thought to

there been any occasion for scare

not be made the basis for stupendous

. The unexpected happened. The
dope was upset, and football history
was made last Thursday afternoon,
when the Alumni football team de.
feated the High School team by: q
score Of 40. The size Of the score
does not show how hard the game
was played, as the High School team
fought: like tigers thruout the game.
OF course the school team was handi-
capped by the loss Of their star full
back and groundgainer, Walt Erick-
son. It is very doubtful tho il his
presence in the lineup would have
changed the result Of the game very
much, altho it would have strength
ened their offense to some degree.
With four Of the fastest, shiftiest
and most ri versatile backs that. ever
graduated from the local school, the
Alumni team sure had an all STAR
combination behind the line. Their
varied attack proved a revelation to
their followers, and was extremely
puzzling to the High School. 5:
No member Of the famous quartet
could be singled out for special men
tion, as each did his part nearly per
feet. The line bucking end Of the
game was left almost entirely with
Austin Hanscom, who tore thru guard
and tackle time and again for: long
gains. Archie Carlson, "Obbie' Nord.

from this years fair shows that the

year was paid for out Of the re-

The only risk the Democratic party
runs 10 next Tuesdays election in
Maryland is apathy Of the voters.
When the party ~ strorg and united rs
the democratic party is to-day. men Of
affairs, who are much interested in
theil work, are apt to conclude thar
there is no danger Of defeat and neg
lect TO give the time necessary TO go
o the polls and deposit their ballots.
They rely upon others to do their yot-
ing. they forget that only the ballots
nut 10 the box are counted. They also
forget that half OF the republican vot-
ers in the county are colore0 men and
there Is moth ne they love so much, as
the exercise Of their right of Suffrage
love that always takes them 10 the
polls and they always vote the way
.incoln's nose is turned. or as instruct
"a by the better Informed members,
hut always for the Republican candi-
dates. These are the votes that are
counted while the votes of the stay-at-
hon es are not counted and If there
are enough of the latter, the republican
candidates win-and the absentees are
contributors to and responsible for
their success.
1.-The busy man Of affairs. especially
the farm ers. can not afford TO take this
risk. The honor Of the democratic
party is at stake. The success Of
democratic policies hang in the balance.
President Wilson is at the helm and
by common consent he is an honest and
capable com manGer. He has done vel
snd promises to do better. Grave
problems confront him but he can not
solve them single handed. He needs
the cooperation Of a consenting Con-
gress. The House is safely democratic
nut me Senate has slender majority.
The absence or mistakes of but few
members would give the republicans
control and that control would mean
he defeat Of the President and House
of Representatives in their efforts for
