Redwood County
Most Desirable
Geo. Whittet Is Satisfied With
Minnesota After Western
Trip

That George Whittet Sr. is
loyal to Redwood County is
doubtly assured since his return
from his western trip. Mr.. Whit
tet admits he has seen much of
| interest and many good farming
communities, but winds up all
stories of his travels by the en-
phatic assertion that nothing
quite compares with Redwood
| County, and that he is perfect
ly content to spend the remain
der of his life on his farm west
of town.
However Mr.. Whittet admits
that he saw some farm country
that was very good, especially
in Idaho in the irrigation dist
rict. Here the climate was found
delightful, and, while the coun-
try is just developing, most of
the conveniences of an old set
tied country are found. Salt
Lake City also proved very in
teresting.
Another trip much enjoyed by
Mr.. and Mrs. Whittet was the
trip from Los Angeles to San
Diego along the beach, with the
mountains rising high on the
other hand and the immense oil
| wells of California within easy
view.
The fair here Mr.. Whittet pro-
nounces to be complete in every
detail and one of the best things
he has ever seen. He also COM
mented most favorably on the
courteous, kindly treatment
shown visitors here.
The San Francisco event did
not please Mr.. Whittet nearly so
we'll although he predicts that
within three or four months,
the grounds will be beau
titled by flowers and shrubs and
the exhibits will be complete.
Mr.. Whittet also declares that
the people at San Francisco COM
pare very unfavorably in cour-
tesy and kindness. with those
of other sections of the West.
| Mr.. and Mrs. Whittet also Wis
tied a short time in Seattle and
finished their visit with a weeks
stay with their sons at Three
/ Forks, Mont. They are both
satisfied with the country and
are doing well.

Big Carnival at
Armory Friday d! Eve.
Undreamed of Wonders To Be
Shown to Public for First
Time at Funniest
DON'T MISS DARLING
Famous Humourski's Band To
Furnish Music; See The Won
derful Diving Act

The local armory is to be the
scene of a grand old fashioned
carnival and fun-fest next Fri
day night. It is to be open to
everyone far and near, and as
great plans are being made for
this out-of-the-ordinary event it
is expected that the building will
be filled with a capacity crowd.
Many of the wonders of the
twentieth century are to be
shown and explained, and you
really must not miss them if you
want to keep up with the age.
You have heard and read of
the incubator baby, but have
you seen one? Darling" will
positively appear at the armory
and is healthy happy example
OF this new practice.
Radio will also be illustrated
and delivered, and you can take
a trip around the world and dis
cover the celebrated fountain of
youth for which a certain early
Spanish explorer sought in vain.
The solution of the present
high cost of living is also to be
given to the inquiring public,
and it is thought that if train
connections are good that Pres.
Wilson and his investigating
committee will be here to re-
ceive said solution.
There will also be world re-
nowned personages here to treat
the assemblage to feats of
strength and daring seldom
equalled and never excelled.
There will be the Madams in
the celebrated high dive and
wire walking acts; the noted
roller and aerial boxers; the
Human Anvil; and an attempt
made to have Ardemann and
Roller settle old scores.
| Humourski's band which had
to leave Europe because of its
schedule being cancelled by the
war will furnish the music,

Musical Quartet;
Armoty, April 5
Last Number of Lecture Course
to Be Fine Musical And Lit
erary Entertainment

The Weatherwax Quartet, con-
sisting of four musical young
men, will be at the Armory Mon
day, April 5, and give an even
ing of entertainment. This is
the final number of the 1915 lee
ture course, and is bound to
prove one of the very best num-
bers of the seasons program.
Not all numbers of the pro-
gram put on by these young men
is musical as two of their num-
Der are excellent dramatic read
ers, one giving readings of
pathos and the other readings
of comedy. Both musical selec-
tions and readings are varied to
suit all tastes and are dignified
and high-grade in every respect.
The most exacting critics can
not fail to be satisfied by this
evening of entertainment if the
press notices received by these
young men wherever they have
gone are to be the criterion. The
best thing said of them is that
they are constantly asked for re-
turn dates wherever they have
given programs.

Noted Ball Player
COnfers With Fans
Mike Kramer, of SeafOrth, Erst-
while Big Lacquer, Gives
Fans Good Advice

A large gathering of fans met
at the Commercial Club last Sat-
urday afternoon to consult with
Mike Kramer anent the baseball
situation in Redwood Falls for
the coming season. Mr.. Kramer
was very candid in his remarks
and gave the locals some help
full information. His suggestion
that an all-salaried team would
prove a costly luxury was time
ly and to the point, and he ad-
vised the fans to engage as many
local players as possible, and
then strengthen the weak points
with outside players.
However, Mr.. Kramer declined
to manage the team, but volun-
teered his service whenever re-
ouested. Undoubtedly he will be
seen on the diamond in Red
wood Falls uniform.
The next thing in order for
the fans to do is to elect a presi-
dent, treasurer and secretary.
This matter should be attended
to at once, so everyone may have
confidence in it's officers and the
team. The sooner meeting is
called and the team put on a
solid financial basis, the quicker
our hopes of a ball team will be
realized,

SPECIAL CITY ELECTION

All citizens should remember
that next Tuesday, March 30, is
the date on which the vote on

a special election having been
called by the Council for that
purpose. The amount of the
bonds is for $1,000, which is to
be used for the erection of a

The New Dream now has an
orchestra to round out it's musi-
cal program. 1t is customary for
every up-to-date movie house to
have well equipped orchestra,

order to give the finishing touch
to his popular place of amuse-
ment. There is always something
doing at the New Dream. In or

should get the habit and go ev-

Mothers Are Entertained at
Dainty Easter Affair at
High School

nate enough to have daughters
in the second section cooking
class were delightfully."- enter
tanned last Saturday afternoon
at a white and gold Easter lunch
con. The girls whose mothers
were unable to come invited 9TH
er friends. Places were set for
sixteen.
A nest of fluffy chickens made
a center piece for the tables
while at each place were nut
dishes made of broken egg
halves with gilded edges. A
chicken by each shell completed
the original nut dishes. The
place cards were tied with yel-
low ribbon from which hung lit
tie eggs. A puzzle connected
Herewith was solved before the
luncheon.
The latter, carefully prepared
and daintily served, proved con-
clusively to the mothers that
their daughters were getting
much practical help from their
work.

I%ntelIigencer
To Pension Methodist Ministers.

Chicago, ILL.,, April 22.-If a
campaign launched here today is
successfully carried out, t h e
Methodist Episcopal Church will
no longer have to blush at the
charge of neglecting to care for
the ministers who have grown
old in its service and find them
selves obliged to live on a mere
pittance in their declining years.
The church now plans to raise
an endowment Of $4,000, 900,
the interest of which is to be ad-
ed to it's other sources of income
in order to provide for old age or
disability of its $4,000 ministers,
as the time comes for each one
to go on the retired list or in e.
vent Of death to provide for the
widow and dependent orphan
children.
There have been appeals for
endowment funds for retired
ministers made hitherto in diff
ferent sections Of the country
which have been in the nature of
skirmishes, but the board of
bishops which assembled here to-
day has decided to carry the bat
tie along the entire front. The
aid will be enlisted of the entire
Methodist Episcopal denomina-
ton numbering nearly 1000, 900
members. March 81 next, which
will be the Tooth anniversary of
the death of Bishop Francis AS
bury, the first bishop of the M.
E. church consecrated in Amer
lea, is to be the d t e Of t h e
round up" of the results of the
big canvass for funds.

Fate of More Saloons in Balance.
Chicago, ILL.,, April 20.-FOr the
second time within two weeks
the liquor question faces a severe
test in Illinois today. Encouraged
by their success in the elections
of April 6, when three counties
were put in the "dry" column,
the anti-saloon forces have been
waging a hard fight in the &c
cities and towns in which the 10
cal option question is voted on
today. The recent election elm
mated about $50 saloons in I'LL
nois. 1t is estimated that 100
more may be abolished as a re-
suit of the voting today.

Commission Plan Satisfies Joplin.
Joplin, Mo-, April 20.-Joplin
today rounded outs its first year
under the commission form of
government. 1t was the first
city of Missouri to adopt the
plan and the citizens now boast
they have the best governed city
in the State. During the year
that the plan has been in opera
ton the tax rate has been slight
ly reduced, Notwithstanding that
a municipal employment Office, a
children's home and other new
social service institutions have
been established. In the opinion
of the public generally the new
form Of government has proven
far more efficient than the old
plan.
