WAR DECLARED
Ladies of Civic Committee Start Cam
paign to Make Sank Centre a
Flyless City.

Monday afternoon representatives
of the various Women's Clubs of Sank
Centre met at the high school build
ing and started an active campaign
to make Sank Centre a flyjess city.
1t will be recalled that the boys in the
manual training department Of the
public school made $50 fly traps,
which the City Council purchased at
so cents each and turned over to the
Civic committee of the Women's
Clubs. Monday these traps were dis
tributed in various portions of the
city where the pest is apt to congre-
gate and breed. They will be super
vised during the season by the ladies,
one lady having charge of about ten
traps. Boys will be hired to bait and
empty the traps at regular intervals,
and for this they will be paid GER
tain sum per quart. At the meeting
of the Commercial Club Monday even
ing twenty dollars of the Clubs funds
was set aside for this purpose. The
ladies naturally expect that the cit
zens will cooperate with them in rid
ding the city of flies.

affair and was attended by only the
immediate friends and relatives of the
contracting parties. The happy cou-
pie left last evening over the Nor.

in Sank Centre where the groom is
one of the city's prominent men. The
bride was one of the efficient teachers
in the public schools during the school
year just closing, and made many
friends who will welcome her as a
permanent resident. A little story
appeared in the Herald of last week
relative to this event, the purport OF
which has been entirely misconstrued
in some quarters. The facts are that
this story was written by one of Mr..
Halverson's closest friends and fra

Friday afternoon of next week,
June 18th, the Live Stock Demonstra-
ton Car of the Northern Pacific rail-
road will arrive in Sank Centre, ac-
companied by several well known live
stock experts from the State Agricul-
tural school.
The purpose of this visit is to DEM
onstrate for the benefit of the farm
ers of this section the best beef and
dairy cattle to raise. ~
At a meeting of the Commercial
Club held Monday evening commit
tee consisting of John McGibbon,
Fred Bergman, Henry Bergman, c.
R. Bruce, Frank Peschek, and Joseph
KLEIN were appointed to have several
head of cattle of both the beef and

The Commercial Club also discus
sed the oiling of the streets and paw
ing. Mr.. Strebel, of the oil commit
tee, stated that a number of the bus
mess men had been interviewed and
the sentiment for oiling was quite
4 favorable, but that it would require a
number of additional signatures to au-
thorize the City Council to order the
work done. Under the new law this
work is assessed against the property.
The committee was instructed to GO
on with the work.
An invitation for the people OF
Sank Centre to celebrate Monday,

COMMENCEMENT
VERY SUCCESSFUL
LARGE AUDIENCE ENJOY AD-
DRESS GIVEN BY DR.. JOHN
H. GRAY, u. OF NJ.
INSTRUCTIVE REMARKS BY M. ID.
AYGARN, SUPT.-WELL REM
DERED MUSIC.

The 35th annual commencement of
the Sank Centre High School at the
Caughren Theatre Friday evening of
last week attracted a capacity house.
The question of seating the public
for this important function was a
grave problem. Each of the 20 SEN
iors was given certain number of
tickets and they supplemented this
with a list Of names they desired to
have tickets, and they were given out
in that way. There has been some lit
tie criticism in the manner in which
the public were handled but those in
charge of the commencement were up
against a hard proposition, and prob
ably criticism would have followed
any method of dealing with the crowd.
The stage was prettily decorated
with the class colors of red and black,
and the class flower, the red rose.
The class motto: Master Thy Mind"
hung at the top of the procenium
arch.
The high school band acquitted
themselves with credit, and after in
vocation by Rev. R. w. Duel, Harry
Cass Elliott, salutarian, delivered a
we'll prepared Grafton, concluding by
introducing the speaker of the even
ing, DR.. John H. Gray, professor of
Economics Of the University of Min
nesota. The gentleman does not make
any attempt at oratory, but he does
get very close to his audience in his
heart message. He is deep student
of conditions, and illustrated quite
forcibly that the people were getting
away from the cardinal necessities of
successful life. The child of today
scarcely knew his father because of
the conditions under which the former
labored. The Home, the Church and
the School, were he declared, the
great institutions which must save
the young people of the present time
and all generations in fact. The Her
aid has not the space to dwell on this
splendid address at great length, but
it is safe to say that on the whole the
talk was as satisfactory as has ever
been delivered in this city on a like
occasion.
Miss Anna Nelson was valedictor-
ian and acquitted her self with credit
in her short Grafton. Supt. M. d. Ay-
garn presented the class in a few
very interesting remarks, and Presi-
dent McGibbon presented the diplo-
mas to the Class, very briefly.
One of the very pleasant numbers
on the program were the vocal num-
bers by the local High School quartet
consisting of Messrs. Schaub, Thorn
as, Gibson and Fay Cooper.
