MUNICIPAL HEATING PLANT is
ACCEPTED.

At joint meeting of the directors
OF the heating company and the City
Council, Wednesday, the municipal heat
ing plant was formally accepted. Char
les Foster, representing the Charles l..
Pillsbury Engineering company of Mimi
eapolis, reported that the plant was in
first-class condition. A bill for extras
OF $44.10 was allowed. By motion {,
vote OF thanks was extended to the engi-
neer, contractors and superintendent,
including, Superintendent Mueller of
the Water & Light department for the
courteous and efficient manner in which
the work was accomplished.
Mr.. Foster says the New Ulm plant
is without exception one of the best,
if not the very best, of it's kind in the
country. He told the council and the
directors of the company at the meet
ing, that the Healy company had done
even better than its CONTRACT required.
That there was so small a BIZ for extras
on contract as large as this, caused
considerable surprise aamcng the mem
bers of both bodies at the meeting.

PATIENTS APPRECIATE
HOSPITAL FLOWER FUND

At the Union Thanksgiving services
at Friedens' church 500 was added to
the fund for the purchase of flowers for
patients at the Union Hospital.
The maintenance of this fund is one
the most humane OF the many nice
things that New Ulm does in the course
of the year. This Thanksgiving there
were eight patients at the hospital who
have no friends residing in or near New
Ulm. As a result, ordinarily they
would have been neglected in the mat
ter of anything to brighten up their sick
rooms, but out of the fund provided
by the citizens, flowers were purchased
by the hospital authorities and hand
some bouquet presented to each of the
stranger patients.
Nothing done at the hospital is more
appreciated than the presentation of
these flowers, according to the authori-
ties. The distribution of the bouquets
brought tears to the eyes of many
patients.
The flower fund for the hospital was
started several years ago and has ever
since been maintained, the money usually
being raised by collection at the Union
Thanksgiving services.

FARMERS CLUBS.

Now lis the time of year for farmers
and Farmers wives to get interested in
organizations that will afford them an
outlet during the winter months Tor
social and educational activities. Every
toYYpship SHOULD have some kind Of asn
TTzation, with stated gatherings,
where the lneighborhood spirit Can he
cultivated, and where opportunity can
he gMenifor:a an exchange of views. -
Winter on the farm is usually avery
tedious saffair where such opportunities
are neglected, but with regular gather
ings to look forward to, and the pleasure
which such meetings provide, the winter
will pass all too quickly.-Boa0msu,. N.

HIGH LIVING COST is
UNDER INVESTIGATION

Price of milk in the Twin Cities was
the subject for the Ramsey county grand
jury to begin its investigation of the
high cost of living.
Out of twenty-five witnesses sub
poenaed only four were questioned.
The dairymen propose to raise the price
from 8 cents, the present price, to 9
cents quart.
To St. Paul reporter the dairymen
claimed the plan to raise the price is
not the result of an agreement. They
declare that the price of feed has in
creased so per cent in the last year, and
other costs of production have grown in
proportion, and declare they see no re-
lief until the pastures are open next
spring. Cows have also nearly doubled
In value, they claim.
H. G. Krum, agricultural agent TO,
Ramsey county, says the big dis
tributols of milk are doing business on
even smaller margin than they were
last year, with the advanced retail price
at that.
Il cannot learn from my investiga.
tions that any one is making more than
a fair margin of profit" said Mr.. Krum
AT the best the producers make only
cents profit on a gallon of milk, and that
is none too much"

FORMER NEW ULM WOMAN
DIES IN DULUTH MONDAY

Mrs. John Edwards, former resident
of this city for several years, died at
Duluth Monday, according a message
received by Rev. E. F. Wheeler, on that
day. He Was, requested to come to
Duluth to conduct the funeral services,
which were to be held yesterday after
noon, and left for that city on the early
morning train yesterday. The burial
is to be at Lake Crystal, where the body
will be brought, probably arriving there
today.
Mrs. Edwards was the wife of John
Edwards, member of the Minnesota
grain inspection force, whose head
quarters were here at one time, the
family residing ia New Ulm for about
eight years. In August, 1916, Mr..
Edwards was transferred to Duluth and

after leaving for their new home Mrs.
Edwards became i'll, since which time
she has undergone three operations at a
Duluth hospital, but all efforts to re-
]ieve her sufferings failed. ~

a gloom over her large circle of friends.
Mrs. Edwards leaves besides her
husband, two daughters, Edna and
Dora. She was member of the Con-

SOLDIERS VOTES CAME HIGH

1t cost the state of Minnesota 81 for
each of the votes cast on the Mexican
border at the last election. The boys,
at least some of them, claim they didn't
care about voting, but it was thrust
on them by the politicians, SO they
voted. i
The totalexpense of the voting by the
boys down there was $8,877.29, and
neither party gained anything. It
however, gave a few men Joy trip to
Texas and the soldiers little recreation
from their monotonous life in an army
camp.
That's about all it amounted to.

PLAN COMMUNITY
TREE IN ARM0RY
CHORUS FOR CHRISTMAS EVE
is DISCUSSED BY SOME
PEOPLE.
THINK INDOOR AFFAIR WOULD
BE IMPROVEMENT OVER
FORMER ONE

Community singing and "a Community
christmas tree constitute "a combination
that is agitating "a number Of New Ulm
people who are anxious that the really
great holiday 81 the year should not go
by without proper observation, in an
affair in which all oil the people of the
city might join hands.
The committee President Ottomeyer
of the Commercial Club recently ap-
pointed to act with "a committee of the
Current News Club to work out plan
for community singing, has not yet been
able to accomplish very much, owing
to the fact that the Thanksgiving holiday
has taken up considerable time, which
is now followed by the preparations foI
Christmas.
Armoxy is Proposed.
In the meantime there is "a desire OF,
the part of some of the members of the
Current News Club to combine the first
gathering for community singing with
a christmas Tree to be held in the
Armory.
Two years ago there was such a
Christmas tree, but that taffair was held
In the OPEN and as it chanced to be a
bitterly cold night it was not enjoyed
as had been anticipated, and the idea
did not appeal to the promoters for "a
second attempt. Asa result no attempt
has since been made in that direction
If it be held in the sArmory, where
all people might gather in any sort Of
weather, and where all the children
could be properly taken care OF, 1T is
felt it would he,-a success. If held i'm
that building the musical feature might
be combined with it and both made "a
success. In that way a start would be
made and the singing continued after
the holidays are over.
Time is Getting Short.
However, the time is getting short,
and whatever is done must be without
further delay The only thing necessary
is for the right persons to take hold AND
push it TIL the last minute.
Christmas coming on Monday, It is
thot that Sunday night, Christmas
Eve, would be am appropriate time.
That, tho cam be arranged as those
in charge may think proper and feasible.
The main thing Row, is to see that start
is made
The committee having the community
singing in hand is composed as
follows: For the Current News Club:
Mrs. c.. G. REIN and Mrs. C. w. Miller;
for the Commercial Club: w. G.
Alvin, F. H. Krook and DR.. H. w. Rieke
Later: So far as the committee is con.
cerned, however, nothing will be done
regarding the Community Christmas
tree. This was decided at committee
meeting yesterday afternoon, but the
members will take up the work i'm
mediately following the holiday season
and organize community chorus.
