Falls. Wis. won the national cham
pionship.
The national ski tournament will be
held at Glenwood next year. This
was decided at Duluth last week.
Glenwood went to the Duluth tourna.
ment with couple of bands and a
special train filled with enthusiastic
skiers and captured several records
and titles as we'll as the next tourna-
ment.
A brass band has been organized at
Graceville and the first practice was
held Friday night. Father Morgan is
the leader and the success of the un-
dertaking is assured.
The GraceviIle auto club assembled
all the available snow shovels in
town one day last week and went into
the country to open the roads after
the snow fall. About twenty cars
formed the procession and the mem
hers worked all dsy. One fellow lost
his coat.
Large quantities of fish are being
taken from the lake at OrtonvilIe.
Ten out of II words recommended
by the National Educational Associa-
tion for simplifed Spelling have been
adopted by the University of Mime
sofa senate. They are program. cat
alog, decalog, prolog, demagog, ped
agog. tho, aItho, thoro and thorofare.
The two recommended spellings not
approved were "thru" and "thruout. !"
Hereafter the approved spelling of
the 10 words above will be used on
all university publications.
Called by the "rotten" markets at
Beardsley many farmers near that
town have decided to build a cooper
alive grain house. $4,000 have al
ready been subscribed for that purpose.
The proposition to start another
bank at Appleton has precipitated a
good deal of i'll feeling and is rending
the town. Farmers and business men
some time ago applied to the state
superintendent of banks for charter.
but vigorous opposition was encoun-
tered from the other two banks now
doingbusiness at Appleton. They Sc
cured the services Of e. T. Young to
plead their cause charging that ano-
Their bank at Appleton would be
a detriment to the community. The
organizers of the new bank were
represented by John Lind. Both
attorneys submitted briefs on the
matter and the superintendent has
taken forty days in which to render a
decision.
Several Morrison county farmers
believe they have been swindled by
mail order houses and will take the
matter up with the postal department.
Some time they received a catalogue
and began ordering goods. One sent
Sc. 40 and the other So. 95. Neither
of them has received any merchandise
and now they want the government to
investigate. !.

Both Parties Protected
Saloons to be Given Sixty Days
to Close Up If County Option
Bill Carries

The county option bill now before
the House in the Minnesota legislature

troduced by Senator Peterson, Of
Moorhead, and among the important
features are the following:
The petition to submit the liquor
question must be signed by at least.25
per cent of the legal voters, based on
the vote for governor at the last cleo
ton. Uuon presentation Of the petit
ton, the county auditor will make an
order calling the election, which must
be held not less than 40 nor more than
SO days from the date of filing.
Both parties are protected by max
ing it necessary that both be repre-
sented in the judges and clerks of
election, and the members of the can
wasting board.
The canvasslng board must file a
certificate of it's findings within 10
days from the date of election, which
must be a special election in every
case. If the vote is dry, the saloons
are given 80 days after the date of
the filing of the certificate to close
up. The municipalities Of the county
going dry are required to pay back
the unearned portion of the license
fees which have been received from
the liquor dealers. By the provisions
of this bill. no other election may be
held on the subject for three years

SULPHUR DRIES UP ECZEMA AND
 STOPS ITCHING
This old time skin healer is used just like any
 cold cream,

Sulphur, says renowned dermatol- og1st' just common bold-sulphur made into thick cream will soothe and heal the skin when irritated and broken out with Eczema or any form of eruption. The moment it is applied all itching ceases and after two or three appIica, t1ons the Eczema disappears, leaving the skln clear and smooth.
 lie tells Eczema sufferers to get from any good pharmacy an ounce of bold sulphur and apply it to the irritated parts the same as you would any cold cream.
 For many years common bold-sulphur has occupied 8 secure position in the practice of dermatology and cutaneous affections by reason of it's parasite-de stroylng property. Itsis not only para suicidal, but also antipruritic, anti septic and remarkably healing in all irritable and infammatory conditions of the skin. While not always effecting & permanent cure it never fails to in- stantly .subdue the angry itching and Irritation and heal the Eczema right up and it is often years later before any eruption again appears on the skin.

UNION IS AGAINST
 PRINTING IN SCHOOL
Trade Paper Says Job Work Is
 Being Done in This City.

According to the current edition of the Labor Standard which claims ts be the only trades union labor paper in Connecticut, the local branch of i. the International Typographical union, is concerned regarding the out put of work at the Prevocatonal school. The paper says:
 "The printers are much concerned over the action taken by the powers that be regarding the printing de- partment at the prevocational school.' It is said that small jobs Of printing arc being turned out for yariofs gatherings, entertainments, etc., which would ordinarily go to the city printers and members of the craft believe that an injustice is being done them. Much has been said regarding the state trade school taking outside contracts and the matter has been threshed out in various labor ganir zations from time to time. The printers however, think that with little diplomacy matters can be set tied a little later on with some degree of satisfaction. It is hoped that some understanding can be reached before the vocational High school is ready for occupancy as it is unders stood that a large printing equipment will be installed"
 The printers have received word from Senator George P. Mclean stat ing that he will give his careful con- sideration to their letter urging ac- ton for the bill which will regulate prison contract labor.
