Mrs. laManCe'S
Work In Redwood
Report of Work Done by Ma
tional Temperance Worker
During Visit Here
(Bv E.. B. Collins)

The series of meetings ar
ranged for by the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union of
Redwood Falls November II and
IL was most successfully car
ried out. The Union was most
fortunate in being able to Sc
cure the services of so able
speaker as Mrs. Lora LaMance.
Saturday afternoon Mrs. La
Nance addressed meeting at
the M. E. Church. Her graphic
description of conditions in the
slums and tenement districts, in
the sweat shops of our great
manufacturing cities of the east,
in the mining districts, her work
among the fallen, all showed her
knowledge of conditions as they
artually exist She convinced
her hearers of the necessity of
working for a Mothers Pension
Bill, Child Labor Law, A Mini
mum Wage Law, Suffrage and
Prohibition.
At the close of this meeting
refreshments were served and
those who were privileged to
attend, enjoyed a social time
with the speaker and were high
ly entertained by her descrip-
ton of the Indians of the west
and by viewing the many beau
tiful gifts of bead work which
she had received from them,
two of the articles having re-
ceived first premium at the
Worlds Exposition at San Fran
cisco.
Sunday Mrs. LaMance ad-
dressed the congregation at the
Presbyterian Church and during
the eloquent address given at
this time one caught a glimpse
| of the secret of her wonderful
power as she revealed the fact
that she won her battles not by
might or strength, but by the
Sword of the Spirit.
Interesting talks were given
by this wonderful speaker at
three of our Sunday schools

ternoon a meeting was held at
North Redwood where Mrs. La.
Nance spoke to a crowded house

Day. Renville has already de-
feated Marshall % to Z earlier
in the season when Marshall was
strong, and since this is a larger
score than Redwood has piled
up against even the weakest Of
it's opponents it throws some
light on the strength of the
Renville team this year. At
present Marshall is on the point
of disorganizing, and but for
protest from Redwood manage
ment would have cancelled the
game. Hence they may not put
up a very strong fight against
Redwood but will suffice to keep
the Redwood team in shape for
the clash with Renville Novem-
Der 80. Next Saturdays results
will therefore indicate something
of the comparative strength of
Redwood and Renvil.e, since
Redwood ought at least to pile
up four touchdowns on Marshall
to compare with Renville. Bet
ter motor over Saturday morn
ing and see them do it.

and at the close of this meet
ing the congregation literally
emptied their pockets and gave
her a splendid offering for the
work. A big mass meeting was
held Sunday evening at the M.
E. Church. At this meeting the
local union was most ably as
sisted by Rev. Darrell who ar
ranged the service and furnished
most excellent music.
Mrs. LaMance, not iii the least
fatigued by the previous meet
ings Of the day, appeared at her
very best and in her simple
graphic style held er hearers
spellbound throughout her ad-
dress. At this meeting she gave
description of her campaign
in West Virginia which was in
tensely thrilling and which again
showed the wonderful source of
her power. Monday morning
Mrs. LaMance accompanied by
Mesdames Collins and Fuller Wis
tied our High School and gave
a most interesting talk to the
students about Alaska.
Mrs. LaMance organized the
Unions Of Alaska, travelled this
large territory and the Yukon
from one end to the other, wrote
their state constitution, and so
we'll was the work done that last
Tuesday Alaska, that immense
territory of bound.ess wealth,
entered the ranks of the drys.
by a 2 to l vote. Through the
kindness of Supt. Brainard ar
rangements were made by which
Mrs. LaMance was enabled to
speak to the pupils of the grade
schools. To each group Of chill
dren a most interesting series
Of talks was given, not only en-
tertaining but exceedingly in
structive as we'll.
Mrs. LaMance expressed her
appreciation Of the splendid mu-
sic rendered at the M. E. Church
and also of the beautiful solo
by Miss Crystal Shoemaker at
the morning service, and Of the
generous collections gwen her.
The local Union also appre-
ciates the kind assistance CIV
en- by all those who helped make
arrangements for the different
services.

A successful goal kick brought
the total points to 20 for Red
wood, IL for Madison. Hence
it would take more than one
touchdown to tie the game. Yet
stranger things have happened
on football fields and the super
stitious were still remembering
that Hoodoo. But he refused
to show his head again. The
game soon ended with Redwood
in possession of the ball on Medi-
sons 2-yard line, making for
another touchdown.

The game was the best dem

fine addition to the back field

The association also discussed
the comparative virtues of the

and other matters of vital III
terest to the trade, the meeting
adjourning at eleven o'clock to
enable some of the boys to get
home Saturday afternoon.
The success of the meeting
and the general good time was
due in large part to the enthu-
siasm and the spirit of fellow
ship which made Joe Whitney
tireless in his efforts to "show
everybody a good time" Mayor
Seward was also most hearty
in his welcome and opened the
gates wide, offering all the city
possesses and it's a lot-of cor
diaIity and hospitality. Attor-
ney Michel, one of the new pro-
prietors of the Lyon Co. Report

kind to the visitors. For these
and many other reasons, "a good

General Resche Immediately
took action on this story by
sending kilograms to the Mime
apolis Journal and to local pa
pers from towns represented in
the Second and Third regiments
denouncing the story as gross
ly libelOus" and stating that
these two regiments did make
the scheduled time in spite of

not lose equipment. Perhaps you
will see this telegram in the Ga

in charge of the camp, aroused

The Second is mighty proud
of it's record. The spirit it
showed under tie hardships of
this storm, the fact that it made
the entire march intact, and that
according to official report from
the medical Corps that no ca

From the above it appears
that less than 25 per cent of the

more than 20 per cen comes
from noncontiguous territory,
and more than half is imported
from foreign countries, Of which
SO per cent comes from Cuba.
Prior to the war United States

the garbled account as published
last week and will withhold judg-

Winter weather has been with
us a few days. The thermome-
ter has shown a slump ,as low
as 36 degrees. The quarter
master department of the regi-
ment had along some of the
stoves as provided by the state
for militia encampments but
only enough to distribute two
to each company. L Company
got it's own quota of stoves with
additions and numerous sorts of
heating apparatus have been in
vented by squads not fortunate
to receive the issue. Wash tubs,
old coffee cans have been re-

chased what they needed or al

Long Hike
We leave soon on a 13 days
hike and maneuvers, which will
involve about 10000 troops of
the Brownsville district. Our
division is to be known as the
"white" army and our foes the
Brown" army. The maneuvers
will end with a big sham battle,
we are told on the historic bat
tlefeld of Palo Alto near Browns

won a decisive victory in the
First Mexican War. A San An

euver will be the biggest mill

War, the largest peace maneuver
