Finding the Winds Direction,

The way to find which way the
wind is blowing is to throw up little
bits of dry grass, or to throw up a
handful of light dust and let 1t fall.
or to suck your thumb. wet it all
around and let the wind blow over it.
and the cold side OF it will then tell
you which way the wind is blowing

ITS BOW TO THE PUBLIC FOR
1915.
The Hotel College Arms at DeLand
was officially opened for the recep-
ton of winter guests on New Years
day. Theodore C. Brooks has taken
the helm and will conduct the large
and palatial hotel, which is known far
and wide as one of the finest appointed
hostelries in the state of Florida. The
Hotel College Arms has recently I'M
dergone a thorough renovating and
many additional improvements are
noticeable.
Situated on a bluff at high altitude,
which insures pure, dry air that is
free from fogs, the Hotel College Arms
boasts of many natural advantages
that cannot be claimed by sea coast
resorts. The water supply for the big
hotel comes from artesian wells that
chemical analysis prove absolutely
pu1s. Fresh vegetables are procured
from truck gardens that are owned
and operated by the hotel manage
ment.
Hotel College Arms is pro-
yided with white help through
out and the service and cuisine
is considered second to none in
the state of flowers and sunshine.
Lovers of outdoor sports will find no
end of such amusement, as the big
hotel owns one of the finest golf
courses anywhere to be found.
Bookings thus far received show
satisfactory increase over former
wears for the same period, and the
hotel, under the popular management
of Mr.. Brooks. is sure to reap greater

Sank Centre Friday Afternoon
Of Last Week.

Last Friday afternoon about 40 be-
decked and overloaded automobiles
from Long Prairie and other points
in Todd county took Sank Centre by
storm. The purpose of their visit was
to boost for the coming Todd county
fair which will be held at Long Prair-
lie Sept. 13, IA, Is and 16. Mayor
McGibbon very briefly welcomed them
after which he called upon DR.. j. A.
Dubois who made one of his charac-
teristic and interesting talks in which
he assured the Todd county visitors
that Sank Centre would do everything
in her power to make their fair sue
cess. He also assured the Long Prair-
ieites that Sank Centre citizens would
make better use of their hen fruit
than decorating the people from Long
Prairie or any other town with them.
The secretary responded very grac-
iously and closed by extending most
cordial invitation for Sank Centre
people to visit them in large numbers

Minnesota Apples Flourish

We were quite astonished on Tues
day at the sight of a noble apple of
the Duchess of Olderberg variety,
which was raised on the farm of A.
G. Jaques, about three-quarters of a
mile from town. The apple was grown
on a tree of five years growth and
measured ten and one-half inches in
circumference, and weighed six and
three-quarter ounces We are now
more satisfied than ever that those
who argue the impossibility of rails
ing apples in Minnesota, know nothing
about it. 1t will not do for those to
talk of the impossibility of raising ap-
pies in this state, on account of the
severity of the winter and shortness
of the summers, who themselves never
planted an apple tree in Minnesota
soil, or encouraged another to try the
experiment. Jaques has ample proof
that the northwest of Stearns county
is capable of producing apples, equal
to any imported from the east.

Geo. Andrus, L. D. Thayer, clerk, DIR.

grade school building and the visit to
Sank Centre was for the purpose Of
gaining some ideas as to the proper
manner in equipping the manual
training and domestic science depart
ments, the arrangement of the seats,
the water supply and other matters.
The visitors were shown through the
building by Supt. M. D. Aygarn who
gave them every facility to familiar
ize themselves with the equipment.
The Herald editor interviewed Mr..
Williams after the inspection had been
completed and he was enthusiastic ov-
er the splendid equipment. Mr.. Will
liams has had very large experience
in school matters and his Endorsement
of course is very gratifying.

ST. CLOUD WINS; LEADS LEAGUE
Sundays Games Mark Close of Cen
trail Minnesota League.-Osa-
kis Cellar Champions.

The Greys played the last game on
their schedule Sunday at st. Cloud
and lost by the score of eight to 0.
None of the runs were earned, how
ever, Sank Centre simply out-errored
the league leaders.
Consistent ball playing such as was
shown by the locals in the two pre-
vious games was woefully lacking, due
largely to weakness at the stick at
the right time. Since the Frank fias-
CO the locals have not strengthened
and this accounts in some measure
for defeat.
Fisher for Sank Centre played a
heady game, getting six assists and
stealing two bases. He struck out
four and allowed six hits. - Lueck
struck out nine and allowed five hits,
and is credited with six assists.
Melrose defeated Long Prairie in
Sundays game, a to 2, thereby put
ting the Pretzels in the lead. Frank,
the catcher who was protested against
by Sank Centre, was not allowed to
play in the Long Prairie lineup, and
this loss was felt by the Dwellers,
Osakis, on whom the Jinx had the
strangle hold all the season, lost to
Alexandria, to 5, thereby easily
grabbing off the cellar honors.
Following is tabulated story OF
the Sank Centre-St. Cloud game:
