ADJUSTMENTS
At fhe IgIs.

Lois Meredith stars in Help Want
ed" drama of the humiliations that
may befalI anybody's sister at the Isis
today, declared by all critics to be
one of the finest photoplays ever
thrown on the screen.
For years the American stage
awaited drama which could tell the
story of a modern corporation Office
in big city. The time clock, the
telephones, the typewri.ers, the green
eyeshades and stomach aprons of the
bookkeepers were material which long
lay awaiting the master hand. The
girl accustomed to certain chivalry
from men in her past home life finds
in business such chivalry ceases to
exist; the middle-aged millionaire
who affects youthful tailoring and
perfume sprays; the hundred and one
types collected and transformed by
modern business methods all these
awaited the master understanding.
In the motion picture production
of the noted play by the Oliver Mo-
rosco Photoplay Company there have
been many opportunities even to am
plify these effects over and above
what was possible under stage linita-
tons. Accordingly the prespectives
of city skylines, the marble TANKS of
a staircase in a modern skyscraper
and the many details OF metropolitan
"color" are brought out in the superb
photography of the Morosco film so
that the picture is as powerful as the
play.

+. Friday Evening.
Local Team Has a r1ost Creditable

This Season.

Before large and enthusiastic
crowd Of fans Company G's basket
ball team annexed another victory
last Friday evening. The latest
quint to bow to the prowess of the
local basket shooters was the highly
touted G. G. team OF ST. Cloud, and
the contest was certainly thriller.
The. Ascension Cubs of Minneapolis
had been scheduled to clash with the
locals, but they cancelled the game
Manager. Hofflander was extremely
fortunate, however, in securing the
G. G team of ST. Cloud, which is
the fastest team in the Granite city,
and consequently Princeton enthusi-
asts were treated to a spectacular
game. This St. Cloud team has op-
posed some of the strongest teams in
the state, and captured two games
out of three with the 'Big Be-
midg'' .quint, so the Company G
team can certainly take pride in it's
latest accomplishment.
Play started at O'Clock with a
gentleman from st. Cloud as referee.
The visitors started with a rush,
and during the first half lad the ad
vantage. They secured 3 field bas-
kets and 3 free throws, while the
locals were annexing l field basket
and 2 free throws. Smith negotiated
all the baskets for Princeton in this
half. When time was called ST..
Cloud was credited with 9 points to
4 for Princeton.
The Princeton players were not in
the least disheartened, however, and
during the final half played game
of basket ball that dispe]led all the
gloom. lodged in the hearts of the
local fans, as result of the outcome
of the first round. Smith was in ex-
ceptional form and appeared to be
able to locate the basket from any
point, in the hall. IIe secured field
BASKETS III this half, and two of them
were tossed over half the length of
thessnall. He also scored 2 points on
free throws. Heinz had his eye
with him also. as lie tossed the ball
through the net twice. The visitors
appeared to be rather dazed by the
rapid scoring of locals, and they
never had a 'slook in. Two field
baskets was the result of their
efforts to score in this round, and
when the contest was over with
Company G had the game slowed
away, by count of Is to Is.

A Good Suggestion.

A subscriber writes the Union and
suggests that during the annual
county fair one day be set aside,
and known as cold Settlers Day.
at which time the pioneers of Mile
Laos county could meet and exchange
"reminiscences of the early days.
The plan is we'll worth considering,
as the early settlers of this county
did more than their part in trans
forming this region from rough
state of wilderness to it's present
condition. Numerous counties in
the safe have an ''Old Settlers Asso-
ciation,' and we believe that pro-
posal to organize like association in
this county would meet with a ready
response on the part of the county's
pioneers, No better time could be
chosen for the organization of such
an association than one of the fair
days, and the meeting of pioneers of
Mile Laos county would add to the
interest of the exposition. AS before
stated the plan is worthy of consi-
deration, and, if it is deemed ex-
pedient, steps should be taken to
organize such an association at the
1915 fair of the Mile Laos County
Agricultural society.

place.
The secretary was instructed to Sc
cure copies of charters adopted by
various cities in the state, so as to
facilitate the work of drafting char

as to the general outline of the pro-
