Iithat they do not make any preten-
sions, they are simply doing the best
they can to help worthy cause.

Restroom Needed.

y A lady living near Priam writes a
complaint to the Tribune about treat
ment received at Willmar by two
ladies who were forced to wait for
the arrival of a friend. There being
no public restroom they entered a GER
tain place and when they would not
order a meal were asked to leave.
The ladies say they will never return.
We do not believe the treatment COM
planned of applies to very many of
our business people, for we know
they aim to be courteous and accom-
modating to all but it emphasizes the
need for public restroom.
