Now that election is over we can all
s.ettle down to the really important bust
ness of getting ready for Christmas.
This is not said is a spirit Of levity at
all for getting ready for the happiest
season of the year is q most If not the
most important business. During the
two months preceding Christmas mer-
chants reap a large portion OF their
yearly harvest and if the harvest be
small for one reason or another the city's
business as whole feels it thruout the
months following the New Year. 10
those who give and to those who receive
it is likewise an important time and
everyone of us should begin to get ready
for the season of all around good feeling.
The small boy and the small girl begin
preparations by being suspiciously good
and by acquiring a sudden desire to
attend Sunday school. The bigger girl
and boy have other means of preparing
themselves for the day and those who
give more than they receive, mothers
and fathers, for example) must think
and work hard from now on in order to
be ready for the great happiness of
making others happy.
Since everyone in town is required
20 be busy individually, why not let's
get busy as a community and have a
Municipal Christmas Tree? A cele-
bration in which every man, woman and
child should have part and an enjoy
ment. Not a Christmas Tree for the
children of this church or that society
but Christmas Tree for all of them
together, and not only for the children
but for the big folks as well! A Christ
mas Tree that will make each and every
one feel toward every one else in the
community as did the business men
when they all sat down at table together
few weeks ago and listened to the
weaving Of beautiful fancies which are
Ito become realities under the spell of
good fellowship and mutual under
standing. Why not something that will
bring us all together in the great church
Of out-of-doors on Christmas Eve, with
hearts mellowed toward each other,

Official Paper OF the City Of New Ulm.

The Springfield Advance comes out
With very fine edition in honor of their
Third Annual Sauerkraut Day. = The
paper shows the progress that the west
end metropolis is making and is credit
to the city quite as much as to Brother
MAILER who, like some OF the rest OF
US, undertakes great deal Of work at
times for the purpose of boosting the
community in which he lives.

A PROCLAMATION:
President Wilson Designates Nov. &c
Thanksgiving Day.

Thanksgiving Day.
by the President of the United
States of America.
"a Proclamation-It has long been
the honored custom of our people to
turn in the fruitful autumn of the year
in praise and thanksgiving to Almighty
God for his many blessings and mercies
to us as nation. The year that is now
drawing to close since we last observed
our day of national thanksgiving has
been, while year of discipline because
of the mighty forces Of war and of change
which have disturbed the world, also
a year of special blessing for us.
1T has been vouchsafed to Jus to
remain at peace, with honor, and in
some part to succor the suffering and
supply the needs of those who are in
want. We have been privileged by our
own peace and self-control in some
degree to steady the counsels and shape
the hopes and purposes of day of fear
and distress. Our people have looked
upon their own life as nation with
deeper comprehension, fuller realization
Of their blessings and keener sense Of the
moral and practical significance of what
their part among the nations OF the
world may come to be.
''The hurtful effects of foreign war

affairs have made them feel the more
fully and see the more clearly their
mutual interdependence upon one an
other, and has stirred them to a helpful
cooperation such as they have seldom
practiced before. They have been
quickened by great moral stimulation.
Their unmistakable ardor for peace,
their earnest pity and disinterested
sympathy for those who are suffering,
their readiness to help and to think of the
needs of others has revealed them to
themselves as we'll as to the world.
"Our crops will feed all who need
food; the self-possession of our people
amidst the most serious anxieties and
difficulties and the steadiness and re-
sourcefulness of our business men will
serve other nations as well as our own.
The business of the country has been
supplied with instrumentalities and the
commerce of the world with new channels
of trade and intercourse. The Panama
canal has been opened to the commerce
of the nations. The two continents of
America have been bound in closer
ties of friendship. New instrument
talities of international trade. have been
created which will be also new instru-
mentalities of acquaintance, intercourse
and mutual service. Never before have
the people of the United States been so
situated for their own advantage or the
advance of their neighbors or so equipped
| to serve themselves and mankind
"Now, therefore, l, Woodrow Wilson,
President of the United States Of America,
do hereby designate Thursday, the
twenty day Of November, next, as
a day Of thanksgiving and prayer, and
invite the people throughout the land to
cease from their wonted occupations and
in their several homes and places of
worship render thanks to Almighty God.

becca Ellis, Mrs. Russell Annis and
J. T. Starkey OF Mapleton, Martin

From Fridays Dairy.

John ALI Holmberg, state bee in
spector, was In Mankato on an Off
cial inspection trip yesterday. Among
the places that he visited was the
farm OF Charles Kleinschmidt OF
Route No. 3, two miles to the east
of the city, on the ThompsoD's Ravine
road. Mr.. Kleinschmidt has quite a
bee farm here. His hives were all
found 10 be In excellent condition.
A neighbor OF his, however, had five
colonies that were infected. and he
promised to kill them all.
This disease Is known as the Ameri-
can foul brood. II does not affect
the full-grown bee, or the human be-
ing that consumes the honey. II mere
iy prevents the development Of the
young broods. causing the eggs and
larvae to rot, instead Of developing
II is carried from one hive to an
other. as the bees steal each others
honey. The object OF the state is to
stamp out the disease, not as SAM
tary measure, but as an economic
one, as this disease, once spread
would cause great loss OF bees.
Mr.. Kleinschmidt said today that
his bees had the same disease two
years ago. He put al the bees in new
hives, burned the old ones and melted
down all the wax. The disease is killed
by bringing the wax to, the boiling
point. The bees afterwards can use
the same wax to build new cells. Mr..
KIeinschmidt has had no such trouble
since he took these measures.
