-wU
BY JEAN ELIOT.

Social history was made last evening
at the ball in honor Of the President
and Mrs. Wilson for which the dipio-
matte representatives OF the Latin
american republics were hosts, and so
pleasant was that history In the making
that [, for one, was ever 20 glad to
be present.
Never before in the annals Of this
country has the President of the United
States been the honor guest at q pub
lie reception by the representatives Of
foreign nations. although Mr. Taft in
the days when he was President shat
tered the precedent. decreeing that the
Chief Executive of the United States
should meet the diplomats only under
his own roof. by being an unheralded
guest at more than one function at "a
foreign embassy or Legation.
The bali was notable. therefore, for
it's unusual Significance and unique in
tercst in addition to it's unrivaled brit
lance. II was, moreover prompt re-
turn of the courtesy extended by the
President and Mrs. Wilson to the visi-
tors to the Pan-American Scientific
Congress and served as n mile stone OH
the way of the closer social relations
that are to cement the friendship be-
tween The two Americas.

What Was Said of Him After Serving
His Term in 1916

Senator George B. Skogmo will be
a candidate for reelection to the state
senate from this district at the Sep
TENDER primaries. Mr.. Skogmo has a
strong claim upon the consideration Of
the voters through his past record, not
only in the legislature, but also as a
public spirited citizen who has done all
in his power to promote the interests
of the community he represents. He
has unselfshly worked along the lines
which he believed to be for the better
ment of his state and his people, and
his every effort is marked with hon
esty of purpose and honorable meth
DDS. His enviable record in public and
private life should command a hearty
commentator from the people whom
he has served.-River Falls Journal.

am a candidate for reelection. My
candidacy is submitted to the people
for their approval based upon my rec
ord as a public servant and a citizen.
Even my opponents have never criti-
cised that record nor questioned the
sincerity of purpose or honesty of con-
viction with which [ have served in
every contest in which the people have
been engaged against special privilege
seekers. Whatever mistakes Imay have
made in voting upon questions before
the legislature have been mistakes of
judgment and not of the heart and |
assure you voted right always as my
conscience gave me to see the right.
In every instance, have kept stead
tasty in mind the welfare of our state
and the happiness Of its people.
1 believe in clean POLITICS, good gov
eminent, honest administration of the
laws, fearlessly and economically adj
ministered in the interest of all the
people all of the time.
am opposed for reelection by spe-
cial interests because have been al
ways uncompromisingly opposed to
them. have nothing to fear from
them save misrepresentation and this
l am prepared to meet with the truth.
AS a member of the American So
ciety of Equity permit me to call your
special attention to my legislative rec
ord endorsed by and published in the
August 18th issue of the Equity News.
The report of the people will be re-
ciprocated in the future as in the past,
by most faithful service in their be-
half.

Farewell Party
Tor The WicklandS

The Baptist congregation and Sum
day school gave a pleasant little par
ty last Monday eve in honor of Mr.
and Mrs. Wickland. The party was
given in Mr.. and Mrs. Coolies new
home at Normal Place. An enjoyable
time was had. The guests of honor
are to leave tomorrow for Barron,
where Evangelist Rayburn is to hold
a series of meetings.
Mr.. Wickland has been given a
years leave Of absence and during that
time he will have charge of the music
in the Rayburn meetings. Mrs. Wick
land will ably assist as pianist. The
noted evangelist is fortunate in Sc
curing such able helpers and the sue
cess of his meetings is assured so far
as music may contribute to their sue
cess. A host of friends wish them all
happiness in their new work.
Mr.. Wickland has been in the Nor
NAL School for four years, and his
work has been characterized by zeal
and earnestness. He will be missed,
especially by the Boys Glee club,
which has been under his care since
it's organization. Every lover of mu-
sic in this part of the state is acquain-
ted with the character of it's work. 1t
has been a potent influence in the ad-
vertising of the school and we trust
it's influence will be felt no less strong
ly under new leadership.

that the matter was one Of extreme
urgency that from all points Of view
it was vitality important that the set

quickly and we were told that not
only Irish but great imperial interests
were at stage.
1T is now more than three weeks
since we did our part and obtained
the assent Of our friends in Ireland in
the face Of great difficulty. as the pro-
posed terms were far from popular
Since then little or no progress
