SMALL LOAF KICK
Editor The Times:

Editor Inc Times.
We, with perhaps thousands of
others, have been patiently wait
ing for the time when the baker
les would increase the weight Of
their loaves from the present 20
OF. or SO for 10 cent shack to
something like normal.
Wheat Is much cheaper than
II was when the loaves were
shrunk to their present attenu-
ated build, and we have been
wondering how long the present
size would be continued in the
face of a falling wheat market,
or II we could expect them to get
smaller.
The only CLEAN of hope We
have had Is the fact that one OF
the bakeries has commenced to
give premiums with the present
Lillipution 10-cent loaf, and 1t
occurred to us that If they could
afford to do this, they could af-
ford to increase the size of the
loaf, and the latter would be
much more appreciated by the
poor consumer, who is trying to
make his salary cover his living
expenses and the luxury of one
five-cent movie a week.
In conclusion let us say that II

tions comes under the province

AN EASY WAY
TO Get RID OF
UGLY PlMPLES

Battle your face for several
minutes with resinol soap and hot
water, then apply little resinol
ointment very gently. Let this
stay on ten minutes, and wash off
with resinol soap and more hot
water, finishing with dash of
cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice day, and you
will be astonished to find how
quickly the healing resinol medi-
cation soothes and cleanses the
pores, removes pimples and black
heads, and leaves the complexion
clear and velvety.
Resinol ointment and resinol
soap stop itching instantly and
speedily heal skin humors. Sores,

Com. CLUB HOLDS
A LIVELY SESSION
MOVEMENT STARTED TO TRY
AND SECURE NEW WOM-
ANS REFORMATORY
CITY CHARTER OUT OF DATE
PAVING, WHITE WAY AND NUM-
EROUS OTHER MATTERS
ARE CONSIDERED

The Sank Centre Commercial Club
held a largely attended and lively
meeting at the club rooms Wednes-
day evening. The new telephone law,
paving, white way, new city charter,
hitching posts, and many other i'm
portant matters were discussed.
Hon. Frank E. Minette appeared
before the body and stated that while
in st. Paul the first of the week he
received information which led him
to believe that Sank Centre would
stand more than an even chance of
landing the new Women's Reforma-
tory to be erected by the State of
Minnesota, if the Commercial Club
and citizens would get back of the
movement. The matter is entirely in
the hands of the Board of Control and
as the Herald understands it, only
the site will be purchased this year,
or rather before the legislature meets
again. A committee consisting of
President ]. A. Caughren, DIR. ]. A.
Dubois and Mr.. Minette were author
lied to take the matter up with the
Board of Control and present Sank
Centres claim in the matter.
The discussion of the white way
and paving brought City Attorney
L. L. Kells to his feet who explained
that it was impossible for the Coun-
Gil to do very much, if anything along
this line, if they were inclined to be-
cause of the, city's charter. The city
was operating under general statute
passed by the legislature good many
years ago, and the city had outgrewn
it's provisions. He recommended that
the club appoint committee to con-
fer with the council relative to the
drafting and submitting to the peo-
pie new charter which would make
it possible to consider in satisfac-
tory manner badly needed public i'm
provements. The committee consists
of L. L. Kells, A. F. Strebel and A.
M. Wallace.
The question of increasing the club
membership was discussed at some
length. There is feeling that every
business man and live wire in town
should be associated with the club,
and the sentiment expressed was that
campaign for new members should
be begun, with the absolute UNDER
standing that as soon as the member
ship reached 100 that the dues be re-
duced to $500 per year. The COM
mittee consists of ]. w. Ward, Geo.
Borgmann, r. E. Hansen and ]. F.
Cooper.
w. A. Moore, who has been the eff
ficient secretary of the club for the
past few months, stated that, owing
to his frequent and increasing absence
from the city, it was impossible for
him to attend to the duties of the Of
flee, and rendered his resignation. The
club after extending vote Of
thanks, reluctantly accepted his res
ignation. j. w. Ward was unanimous
ly elected to succeed Mr.. Moore for
the balance of the year.

relatives and friends. The young man
went to Billings, Mont, about week
ago, accompanied by his mother, Mrs.
John Bromenschenkel of Sank Centre.
The object of the Western trip was
to visit son and brother, Joseph,

lings. Mrs. Bromenschenkel will re-
main couple of weeks longer in the
West. A. L. will return to st. Paul
the latter part of the week and re-

MAY HAVE HAD FIRE LOSS

Mr.. and Mrs. Beadreau of Caron,
Sask, Canada, spent Wednesday in
Sank Centre, visiting old friends; they
were former residents. They were en-
route home from Minneapolis where
they were called to attend the funer-
al of brother of Mrs. Beadreau.
While here they received word Of a

from the best information obtainable
they were afraid their home had been
destroyed as they were living up
stairs in a business block owned by
Mr.. Beadreau in the very heart of the
fire. The gentleman says his prop

carried but small insurance. He says
the crop prospects in Saskatchewan
this year are very promising, but that
they are a trifle late In speaking of

confident of the final and complete
victory Of the Allies, and that when

week in the interests of his magazine
which is devoted to the worthy object
of good roads throughout the state.
Mr.. Dore is engaged in giving an
illustrated write-up of the Red Trail
and the different towns through
which this road passes. Sank Centre
will receive liberal treatment at his
hands, several pages of the August
issue being devoted to this section.

Mr.. Dore, "need take no second place

Stolen GOODS RE-
TURNEDBY Thieves
REVOLVERS AND KODAKS LEFT
IN SACKS AT ROWE HARD
WARE STORE.
BURGLARIES STILL AMYSTERY
LOCAL TALENT EVIDENTLY is
AFRAID TO TRY AND DIS
POSE OF GOODS.

Herald readers will recall that a
couple of burglaries took place in
Sank Centre several weeks ago al
which time the Rowe Hardware Co.'S
store and the j. B. Perkins Drug
store were entered by thieves and re-
viewers, kodaks and other merchan-
disc taken.
The two burglaries were pulled
off on separate evenings and it was
quite evident at the time that local
talent pulled off the stunts.
The police and other officials work
ed diligently on the case; several sus-
poets were closely questioned, and
men were brought to town under COW
er to try and ferret out the cases.
Several promising clues were fol.
lowed but usually ended up against
wall as far as results were concern
ed.
There has been great diversity OF
opinion as to who were the perpetra-
tors, but from the character of the
goods taken it was quite generally
doped out that boys were the culprits
The criminals were either fearful
that the officers were getting close
on their trail or else they were afraid
to attempt to dispose of any of the
plumber, for sometime during Sunday
night an entrance was again forced
in the rear of the Rowe Hardware
Company's store. Nothing was taken
on this visit, but instead the thieves
left two sacks, one marked "Roe
Hardware" and the other labeled
Perkins Drug Store" The writing
was scrawl and clumsy attempt at
a disguise. Eacs sack contained
the goods taken from each place, OF
practically so.
There were two more revolvers than
the hardware company had listed as
lost, and the drug company received
one more kodak than they had missed
but there were other items of lesser
value still missing.
At the time of the burglary it was
given out that Jeweler Walker who
occupies a portion of the drug store
had not lost anything. Later, how
ever, he missed several watch chains
but he said nothing about his loss
hoping to locate them eventually
These, too, were returned.
The cameras and revolvers had ev.
identity been kept in some damp place
as they had accumulated more or less
rust.
The police still have their theories
but the burglaries are still as much
of a mystery as they were at the
time the crimes were committed.
