YOUNGSTERS INTERESTED.

Richmond has about thirty school
basketball teams counting the inter
group league and class teams at the
high school and the Automobile league
at Garfield. This will give Coach
Nohr wealth of material to choose
from In coming years for the boys all
take deep interest in the games and
play like trojans,
INDOOR BASEBALL.
Indoor baseball fans are talking of
starting a league here to play at the
Coliseum but nothing definite has
been done in the matter as yet. Fans
are anxious to see the league started
for the sport is a popular one and If
strong league is formed the organiza-
ton should prove to be a paying in
vestment.
SKATING Is POPULAR.
Skating is just az popular as ever in
Richmond and there is always good
sized crowd on the floor of the Coli
scum from early morning until closing
time. AS soon as Hawkins pond
freezes over ice skating will draw the
crowd and every accommodation for
the comfort of the skaters will be pro-
vided. An attempt will be made to
form an ice hockey to play at the pond
at least two nights a week providing
sufficient light is furnished to make
the sport safe.

AUTO CLUB IS after MEMBERS
TWO COMMITTEES NOW BUSY
GETTING MEMBERS S-OTHER
CAMPAIGN PLANS

It is the intention Of the automobile
owners in this city and vicinity to get
busy with the good roads movement
this spring and the Little Falls auto
mobile club already has two commit
tees of three members each at work
soliciting memberships in that organ
ization to help boost the movement.
The club held meeting at the city
hall Tuesday evening, when plans for
securing members and other matters
were discussed at length.
The committees On membership re-
ported that as yet they had been una
BILE to do anything: owing to the incle-
ment weather. They were urgeu to
get busy at once, however and a
splendid report can be looked for at
the next meeting, which will be held
at the city hall next Tuesday evening.
The committee appointed to recon-
mend members Of the board Of COVER
nors Of the club asked that this mat
ter be left until the membership COM
mittee has completed work, as there
will then be a larger number to choose
from.
Secretary Gordon announced that he
had written to Minneapolis firm for
samples Of club membership buttons,
to be attached to *he automobiles. He
had suggested a porcelain button with
blue lettering, to bear the design OF
the local club as well as that of the
national organization, of which the
club members become members through
affliation with the state club.
number Of suggestions were made
as to methods Of getting members af-
ter the campaign committee has COM
pleted work. One was that large pla-
cards be put up in garages, urging
automobile owners to Gin the club. al
so that the garage owners be author
lied to accept memberships. Another
was to get the automobile agents to
urge their customers to join.
One Of the best points on which the
club expects to get membership is the
guarantee that none of the money will
be spent except to bring about the
improvement of the roads in the coun-
ty.
President George Kiewel suggested
that the local club organize automo-
bile tours to the various towns and vii
lagos in the county, whereby better
relationship could be established and
the trips would at the same time be
in the nature Of pleasure tours. He
also urged the club members to attend
the annual meetings of the farmer and
creamery clubs whenever possible. Tt
was suggested that committee be ap-
pointed to arrange the tours. The idea
met with favor among the club men,
bers and will likely be adopted.
Adjournment was taken to next
Tuesday evening, at which time the
membership committee will likely re-
port and other matters of Importance
will be taken up.

will be begun very soon on the con-
struction of the electric short line

FIRST drive At ST. CLOUD
CREW OF 80 MEN CLEARING THE
RIVER FROM LITTLE FALLS
TO MINNEAPOLIS

The first "rear'' of 1915 reached
sauk Rapids yesterday afternoon be-
hind drive Of 60,OoO,OO0 feet of logs,
says Wednesdays St. Cloud Times.
The crew was organized in Little Falls
a month ago and will go straight
through to Minneapolis. The latter
part Of the week will be given over to
the transfer Of the drivers belongings
from wangans above the dam to other
wangans brought up stream to meet
the rear at st. Cloud.
Under the direction of Otis Webb,
a crew of 80 men has encountered re-
sistance in the form Of low water that
retarded the movement of the logs
and compelled "sacking" logs during
the early period Of the drive. The
late rains have increased the height Of
the water and has made the last
week 8 work lighter and more rapid.
No drive has been made north of
Little Falls this season. Until the win
ter cut timber has reached Brainerd
about the middle Of the summer no
drive will be made from that point.
"Forerunners from the jams that
the Webb crew has broken commenc-
ed to reach St. Cloud several days ago
but not until this week did the flow
commence to be steady movement Of
logs.

WILL HOLD CHAUTAUQUA AT
FAIR GROUNDS

The next chautauqua, which will be
held on June 20 and 80 and July l, 2,
3, 4 and 5, will be held at the tair
grounds. The fair board has agreed
to allow the bureau the use of the
grounds. Last year they wanted to
hold the chautauqua there but the
members of the fair board could not
to the people of. having the chautau-
qua at the fair grounds is that those
who wish to go there in automobiles
can leave their cars inside the fence
without fear of having them damaged.
Also it will require less watching to
keep out those who are so fond Of
"sneaking in.'

BASTIEN WANTS BAND STAND

A short meeting Of the Commercial
club was held at the city hall Tues
day evening, at which w. H. Bastien,
leader for the band, appeared and
asked that some arrangement be made
whereby band stand be provided for,
also seats for the people who come out
to hear the band. The matter was
turned over to a. committee composed
Of Mr.. Bastien, P. J. Vasaly and Chas.
Sylvester, who will confer with the
county commissioners in regard to get
ting the court house grounds for this
purpose.
Mr.. Bastien stated that the band
could furnish better music it provided
with stand. Better lighting facili-
ties could be provided and the musi-
clans would not be interferred with by
passing pedestrians, automobiles. etc.,
as they play on the streets. He also
pointed out the need of seats for those
who come to listen to the concert and
suggested seats along the court house
walk.
It is estimated that the cost of a
band stand would not exceed $50. The
cost could be materially lessened if the
lumber would be donated. If the COM
mittee cannot get the court house To-
cation, some other location will be
looked up.
Secretary Millard was instructed to
cancel the clubs advertisement in the
classified directory of the Northern
Minnesota Magazine.
