gether.
The Herald has endeavored to faith
fully chronicle the proceedings of
Mondays meeting in a fair an impair
tial manner.
Like all other business men we sim
cerely trust that the trouble will be
adjusted. A majority of the old
shareholders feel that the officers
should actually be farmers who are
actively and personally interested in
the success of the creamery. Mr..
Hager the newly elected secretary is
likeable young man and is no doubt
qualified to fill the position to which
he was seemingly elected. If he can
only hold his place at the end OF
litigation which may wreck the asso-
citation the Herald believes that the
wiser course for him would be to
gracefully decline the position under
the existing circumstances.

EDITOR TURNED DOWN

P ter Homer, the clever editor Of
the Cold Spring Record, has been an
aggressive candidate for the postmas-

MARRIED AT ST. CLOUD
Horati0 Harrington and Miss Barbara
Engel Both of Home School Join
Hands and Hearts.

The expected marriage Of Miss Bar
bara Engel, secretary to Mrs. Fannie
French Morse of the Home School for
Girls, of this city, and Horatio Hair
rington superintendent of the Home
School Farm was soiemnized at st.
Cloud Monday. The following inter-
esting account of the nuptials was ia
ken from the st. Cloud Times:
A very quiet wedding occurred at
the Cathedral rectory this afternoon
at four o'clock, when Miss Amelia
EngeL daughter of Mrs. Barbara
Engel, of this city, and Mr.. Horatio
Harrington, son of Mr.. and Mrs. A.
r. Harrington, of Winthrop, Maine,
were united in the holy bonds of
matrimony. Miss Clara Daniels was
the maid of honor and was attired in
a blue suit with hat to match. The
bride was attired in blue suit with
hat to match. Louis Engel, a brother
of the bride, was best man. After the
ceremony sumptuous wedding din
ner was served at six o'clock, at the
home of the brides mother The
dining room was effectively decorat-
ed in white, and the color scheme in
the living room was pink. Miss Engel
is one of the very estimable young
ladies of this city, having made her
home here the greater part of her
life. She has charming personality,
with which she won the friendship of
all her acquaintance. The bride was
formerly employed as bookkeeper and
,stenographer by A. A. Wright and
later by E. w. Atwood until year
ago, when she went to Sank Centre,
where she had the position of secre-
tary to Mrs. Fannie F. Morse, Super

friends both in this city and Sank
Centre, who extend their heartiest con-
CALCULATIONS and wish them long and
happy welded life.

some NIFTY SPORT
Herald Correspondent Graphically
Describes Couple of Neat Trim
mings by By Local Artists

Last Friday was bargain day in
Basket Bal at Sank Centre. The High
Sshol team lined up against their
ancient enemy Melrose while the
Seconds took on the Long Prairie
team. Both games were won by the
local men, 1928 and 52-18.
The Sank Centre seconds have never
organized or played as a team, but
they evidently learned something
about the game while acting as chop,
ping-block for the elder brothers. It
was the first match game for every
man in the lineup, and for a few
minutes they showed evidences Of
stage-fright, but soon steadied and
pulled off some floor work that would
do credit to any high school team.
Pangburn was chief eagle eye on the
baskets, with eleven field goals. Han
sen followed with six, while the
Huschka-Lee combination picked up
seven, each man playing a half.
Cooper displayed speed that made
the rest of them look as if their shoes
were nailed to the floor, and broke up
the opposing team work in a way that
was uncanny. Segers was there as a
representative of a Helping Hand
Society and played good game with
no attempts at grand stand stunts.
For the Long Prairie team it was
simply case of being outclassed.
They hung on gamely and their chal-
lenge for return game beat out the
echo of the final whistle.
Melrose and Sank Centre have all
ways had knives up their sleeves for
each other, and this was probably the
cleanest contest ever played between
the two. There was no attempt at
rough work, but fouls were called inn
partially by both officials and the
game kept in hand. Melrose took the
lead with two goals in quick success
sion but ran second from that time
on. The first half ended with the score
25-10 in favor of Sank Centre. Mel
rose came back strong in the second.
1t looked like curtains for the home
team at one time when the visitors
shot three goals so rapidly that the
score-keper had to take them down in
shorthand. The Sank Centre guards
put on the emergency brake, however,
and each side scored thirteen points
in the period. =
Anderson starred for Melrose-
seven field goals and four free throws.
For Sank Centre Hanson played a
waiting game under the basket. The
new rules read: Passing the ball to
Hanson shall count two points" It
was even so. Lyman covered nine
miles Of high spots in forty minutes,
and came down for a rest only at the
ends of the halves. Wagner played
his best game of the year at center
The old guard need no comment. They
are always on the job. The audience
was disappointed in failing to see
L. Lyman and Hennemann in action,
but the combination on the for was
working too well to be experimental
with.
The townspeople are supporting the
game in proper style, and a crowd ap-
peared on the side-lines that brought
a smile to the faces of the Athletic
Associations creditors. The slippery
field bothered the visiting team and
plans are on foot for a return game
on a neutral floor, preferably at st.
Cloud or Glenwood. W.

ROAD COMMISSION TO
DISPOSE OF JUNK
ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS EQUIP
MENT MAY BE SOLD WHEN
1T is WORN OUT

Santa Fe, April SO,T-sfWhat shall
the state do with its junk?2 was the
problem put up to Assistant Attorney
General Harry s. Clancy this forenoon.
The state, in it's various departments,
does a business of more than million
dollars annually and naturally thereAis
material, especially in the
engineers department, ranging from
picks and shovels to tents and mules,
that becomes worn out and should be
disposed of at the greatest possible
profit to the state.
: Mr. Clancy gives as his opinion as
to the mthod of disposing of old and
worn-out property belonging to the
state and which has been used in con
nection with the construction Of
roads:
"While am unable to find any stat
ute prescribing the method for the dis
position of such property, it is quite
evident that the roads commission,
under the provisions Of Section 8,
Chapter AZ, of the Laws of 1909, is
fully authorized to formulate rules
and regulations as to the disposition
of such property. believe rhat the
commission should adopt and place in
force a rule as to the disposition of
equipment which is no longer Of use,
providing that such equipment shall
be disposed of either at private sale
or at public auction, as the commits
sion may see fit, so that the state may
derive the largest possible return for
the material so disposed Of"

Santa Fe, April SO.-Although April

into the state treasury $2S,S41.97 and
what is more remarkable, more than
one-half of that amount, or $16,163.80
will be to the credit of the Santa Fe

and $1,529.91 to the income fund for
that purpose. On the other hand,
several of the staLe institutions get
very little from the distribution of

placed to the credit OF each Of the

credit Of the school for the blind and
Is cents to the deaf and dumb asylum.
