also read it, With delight he that she fell
into the trap. and when she had innocenty
dipped deep into the war bulletins he suddenly
reversed the paper. folded it 50 that she could
no longer read it and then beamed at his dis
concerted companion across the way with the
saucy smile Of a mschievous boy
merry laugh came over her face also.
Yet before he could take advantage of this
opportunity, a. ne had hoped to do, by politely
handing her the newspaper, she got up slowly
and left the car at the next station.
The next day she sat again very quietly in her
old place. But in the course Of the journey, IN
order to loosen her veil, she drew off her right
hand glove. Then he saw a wedding ring on
her hand and knew why suddenly the world
looked very gray.
For a moment, however his old waggishness
asserted itself. He fe gned a cold, and in order
10 get his handkerchief out of his pocket he
also drew off his glove But when he felt her
serious eyes fixed on his unringed hand his
smile faded and there va. . oang Ca Dl,t-.ll-..

Christmas at hand.
The rainy winter in Berlin had impaired
his health, which had not yet been fully re
stored SO he received a two weeks leave
to build himself up in a purer, dryer winter
climate.
He chose his fayorite Fedberg, in the Black
Forest. and was soon on the way there in the
hope that that choicest OF all German mountain
retreats might heal an even greater wound
than that made i'm his breast by'a foreign
bullet

let him gaze on it, as if it, too had been struck
motioneSs.
She of whom he was just thinking stood
there in the narrow pathway, which dipped
from him toward her. and, like himself, she
rubbed her eyes.
Collecting herself more quickly than he did,
she walked calmly up to him and then
passed on.
He did not turn around to look after her.
He was afraid that he would faint
She here! She and he far away from those
conventional formalities-in the magic, peace
full valley of the Koepfe.
All the fresh joyous, youthful spirit in him
dubbed up again and he laughed loud, happy
laugh SO, after all, there lived up above the
world somewhere the old honest Santa Claus,
who listened to and fulfilled the wishes of good
children. He, too had been good And now
he wanted to take his gift in both hands and
say joyous Thank you"
Hans considered what he should do. This
time he must speak to her. To-day. This very
hour. If he hurried he could still make the
circuit of the mountain quicker than she could,
travelling in the opposite way. He could even
give her little leeWay ana yet Sne couiu hoI

He pushed ahead and his eyes sparkled as
he pictured the meeting.
He would do nothing which could possibly
offend her. He didn't want to disturb the
peace and tranquility which she, too, had
sought here. The war, the great world up
heaval, had also subdued him, once so unruly,
and given him the clearer outlook of one pur-
fed by suffering. But he felt that he might
ask her to be his comrade and companion for
a few wonderful winter days.
He saw that in her. She was capable Of
more than most women are capable of. She
could maintain a comradeship; and he would
be fool if he did not try to put their relation
ship on just that basis.
There she came. How much more beautiful
she was now that she had exchanged plain
black for the white of winter outdoor suit.
His heart thumped. But with outward COM
posure he let her advance and greeted her,
his face beaming with mischievous smile.

Eagerly he stretched out his arms and then
rushed into the snow. First around the
Kloephe, the little hill crcled about by the
most delicate. charming, solitary mountain
path which any German lover of romance could
ever have plotted.
Al first the ascent lay open along the wavy
forest edge. But Hans pushed on impatiently,
and when the fairylike path plunged deep

"Let's Pass Prosperity Around

nation wide observance the third

G. A. R. PERPETRATE SURPRISE
Old Soldiers Swoop Down on WOmen's

LincOln's Birthday.

Through an oversight, B. R. Palmer
Post, G. A. R., failed to make prepar-
alton for celebrating Lincoln's birth
day. Nor was there anything arrang-
ed by the w. r. c., or by the citizens
of Sank Centre so far as known until
the Thursday before at the Posts reg
ular meeting when they planned to
surprise the w. r. c., at their regular
meeting at $3.50 o'clock on Lincoln's
birthday. The G. A. RS had prepar-
ed lunch of doughnuts and coffee
and secreted themselves adjoining the
lodge room, and at the allotted hour
marched to the door and offered
themselves as surprise guests. The
ladies were surely surprised but gra-
ciously invited the "Old Boys" in and
seated them. The w. r. C.'s were
having a muster in of recruits after
which they had nice program pre-
pared which they proceeded to carry
out for Lincoln's birthday. The af-
ternoon passed off enjoyably, closing
with the lunch of the "Old Boys"

AVIATOR MAY SETTLE HERE
Iowa Man Seeking Location Near
Suitable Lake for Factory and
Flying School.

Sank Centre may soon have an
aeroplanc manufacturing piant and
aviation school. F. E. Minette has re-
ceived a letter from F. J. Davis Of
Waterloo, Iowa, who is connected with
the Elk Run Land and Townsite Co.,
of that city, stating that he had been
informed Sank Centre had nice lake
suitable for hydroplaning and that he
has man who is looking for flying
machine factory site. The aviator is
using the grounds and building of
the Elk Run company this winter but
desires permanent location where he
can rise from and alight on water.
The writer says the aviator now has
two machines-one of his own make
and on which he has patents and one
of the Curtis type. The aviator's OBJ
iect is not only to build flying ma
chimes but to conduct flying school
here. He is looking for a factory
building and from 40 to 80 acres of
land adjacent to the lake. All he asks
is the moral support of the community
in which he decides to locate. Mr.
Minette consulted President J. F.
Cooper of the Commercial Club and
the latter gave assurances that it the
aviator meant business he could have
the old radiator factory free of cost
for one year. Mr.. Minette has COM
municated with Mr. Davis setting
forth Sank Centres advantages.

SAUK CENTRE MEETS DEFEAT
High School Quintet Falls Before Wa
dena Five in Fast Game
Score So to %.

Sank Centre met it's first defeat
Friday evening since Coach Borman
took them under his wing. The game
was played on the Wadena floor ana
the locals were badly handicapped on
account of the smallness Of the play
ing space, but are perfectly willing to
admit that they met a strong team.
The game was nip and tuck from the
time the whistle was blown until time
was called. Twice during that period
the score was tied. The first half
ended 22-16 with Sank Centre on the
short end. The locals came back
strong, however, and tied the score at
%. Three minutes before the final
whistle was blown the score was tied

counted 8 points in the final period. 1t

TANK ExPLODES; MAN KILLED
Peter Altman Meets Horrible Death

Peter Altman, "a years of age, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Altman, re-
siding ma farm near Spring Hill,
died late Wednesday afternoon as the
result of injuries received in the ex-
plosion of an acetyline gas tank at the
farm home that morning. The young
man was engaged in pumping up the
tank when the accident occurred. The
cause will never be known as the body
of the young man was badly mangled
when it was picked up by other mem
bers of the family who were attracted
by the sound of the explosion and he
never regained consciousness. One
arm was nearly torn off and the head
and upper part of the body was dis
colored to a deep blue. The gas tank
was blown to bits. The deceased was
distantly related to J. B. and ]. A.

DEFENDS THE USE OF HYPHEN
Former Governor of Minnesota Speaks
to Large Gathering of Republi-
cans at Joliet, Ill.

Joliet, ILL.,, Feb. 16.-The use of the
hyphen in referring to persons of for
eign birth who have come to the
United States to live was defended
here before large audience of Re-
publicans by Adolph Eberhart of st.
Paul, former governor Of the state of
Minnesota.
He took the stand that the use of
the hyphen denoted ancestry, of
which, he said, every person should
be proud.
The former governor attacked the
administration of President Wilson,
saying that promises had not been
kept, the cost of living had not been
creased and that performance had
been relegated to the background and
sswatchful waiting" substituted.

YOUNG MEN NOT WANTED

John Schwartz and Charles Wiley,
OF hughes, as he is sometimes known,
are not wanted by the local police in
connection with the holdup OF b. r..
Halboth here last week. The police
know that both young men are in
Minneapolis but say they have abso-
lutely no evidence to connect them in
any way with the robbery. 1t will be
remembered that at the preliminary
hearing Of Charles Lawrence ana
Howard Johnson, who were bound ov-
er to the grand jury to answer for the
holdup, both testified that the crime
had been committed by Schwartz and
Wiley. The police sought to substan-
tiate the statements of the two young
prisoners but were utterly unable to
connect Schwartz or Wiley with the
crime in any manner.

MOONSHINER AT GLENWOOD
Manufacturer of Mountain Dew"
Comes to Grief When the "Rev-
enues" Get on Trail.

E. F. Greene of Glenwood decided to
introduce regular Blue Ridge "moon-
shining" into Minnesota
Back in the woods two miles from
Glenwood he set up his secret still. All
the regular appurtenances were there
except the lean, lank mOuntaineers,
there being no mountains anywhere
near Glenwood.
Mr.. Green's experiment was not a
success.
He admitted as much before United
States Commissioner Samuel Whaley
in ST. Paul, when he explained that he
made few gallons of whiskey in his
secret still but found it so very, very
bad he couldn't even drink it himself.
He pleaded guilty to a charge of
manufacturing illicit spirits and was
bound over to the federal grand jury
that meets in Fergus Falls in May.
He was freed under $500 bail.
Greene's downfall was due to those
traditional foes of "moonshiners" of
the mountains. The revenues" got
him. They found his still, five gallons
of low wines and a quantity of sour
mash.
They didn't have to level their rifles
at Greene and command him to stand
back as they always do in the "mov-
ies." It wasn't necessary, for the
ssmountain dew" was so strong nobody
dared go near it for fear of spontan-
eous combustion.

the door behind her and started in
search of the fire which she knew ex-
listed somewhere in the house.
She CROPPED about until she reached
the dining room and there she could
see dull glow of flames through the
smoke. Cropping to where she re-
membered loose clothing was piled,
she seized an armful, made her way
to the flames and piled the clothing
onto the fire.
This accomplished, she made her
way to the telephone to notify Chief
Fish and then sought fresh air. At
the home in the evening she would
only say, ooh, it was nothing; / knew
there was fire and l hunted until /
found it and stopped it." Miss Gray
seemed none the worse for the ordeal
A badly charred floor was grim
evidence of the menace which had
threatened the residence and which
had been throttled by Miss Gray. Be-
cause of the warmth of the afternoon
Chief Fish had allowed the fire to die
down in the stove in the dining room
but had told his son, Milton, to renew
the fire when he returned home from
school in the afternoon. This Milton
had done about A o'clock. Beside the
stove was a box containing wood and
chips. Milton left the house thinking
all safe.
The fire broke out in the little wood
box, burning the wood, its contents,
charring deep into the floor and burn
ing into a rug before extinguished by
Miss Gray and Mr.. Fish. The floor
was of hard maple and but for this
fact George believes the floor would
have been burned through and spread
rapidly in the time it was charring
and caused a serious fire if it had been
of softer wood.
