triOtic Work

portunity to show her willing
ness to do this patriotic work.

Mac Is Back

A. D. McRae, Redwood Coun-
ty Register of Deeds, returned
Thursday from a three weeks
trip with a party of friends. The
party went first by train to Flor
ida where they met M. Lehrer
Of Springfield who with his fam
lily had been spending the win
ter in Florida. The return trip
of over $500 miles was made in
Mr.. Lehrer's Cadillac and was a
wonderful experience to the men
who had never visited this Sec
ton of the United States except
by train. The time tax
en- was about two weeks and
any number of interesting side
trips were taken. Mr.. McRae
tells some very interesting stor-
les of views and interviews, peo-
pie and places and is very con-
fident and convincing in his
statement that the motor way
is the only way for touring. The
other members of the party were
DR.. McRae of Princeton, VIM
G.. Frank of Springfield and VIM
Duncan of Milroy. Macs book
Confessions of a Cadillac Civ
ing a full, complete and verified
account of the trip will be off
the press soon and promises tc

postcards selected by Mr.. Nc.

Help Road Builders
To The Public:

To The Public:
Attention is hereby called to
the undesirable and unlawful
practice Of certain parties plow-
ing up the bitches and carrying
the black dirt up onto the trav-
eled roadbed of the State Roads
of Redwood County. This is a
very poor practice for several
reasons.
Drainage is the first essential
of good roads and by blowing
into and obstructing the ditch
es, this necessary adjunct is at
once destroyed. This is espec-
tally important along the roads
which were built three or four
years ago and being of lighter
type Of grading did not have
such ample bitches as those now
under construction.
In dragging the dirt onto the
grave1ed roadbed, the object of
the surfacing is at once de-
stroyed for with the first rain
| it softens and ruts up the gravel.
This is a very poor policy when
one considers the fact that the
gravel must often be hauled
several miles.
It is hoped that the public
will realize that these roads are
their own and that they must
indirectly pay for such actions
by the added cost of mainte-
nance. If this practice is not
stopped the county will take the
lawful action necessary to pun,
| ish the offenders.
Respectfully,
II. E. PALMER,
| Highway Engineer.

"Aggies" to Meet
Here June 9th
Second Annual Picnic of Agri-
culture College Alumni Held
in Ramsey Park
PROF. MAYNE SPEAKS
Picnic Dinner Followed by Pro-
gram of Talks; Other Amuse-
ment Planned

The second annual picnic and
reunion of the students AMI
alumni of the Minnesota School
of Agriculture, will be held in
Ramsey State Park at Redwood
Falls Saturday, June 9. The re-
union last year took place June
10, but because Of lack Of pub
llclty it was not very well at
tended. This year, however, it
is the aim of the committees in
charge to reach nearly every
"Aggie" in the state by one
method or another.
Ramsey State Park is, very
undoubtedly, one of Minnesota's
beauty spots, and no more beau
tlful or convenient place for a
meeting Of this sort could have
been selected; beautiful because
it is natural scenery, and con-
venlent because it is but short
distance from the homes Of a
large number of Agricultural
College alumni.
Those who are within driving
distance will come in their cars
while others will come by train.
A large number is expected in
on the Northwestern r. r. which
arrives at Redwood Falls about
11:30 A. NJ, and on the Mime
apolis & St. Louis which arrives
at North Redwood at LOO P. NJ.
These trains will be met by
members Of the entertainment
committee.
After a real "Aggie" picnic
dinner a meeting will be called
when Prof. Mayne, principal Of
the School of Agriculture, and
others, will speak. There will
be a short hike to the numer-
Gus beauty spots Of the park,
also other forms of amusement.
Special arrangements will be
made for entertainment in the
evening.
| Everyone is welcome, not Ag-
gies only. Come and bring a
we'll filled dinner basket. All Ag-
gies come with lots of pep, and
"let's make it a hot one. Con
tributed.

Matters Discussed

The Redwood Falls CONNER
cial club had one of the busiest
sessions of the year at its regu-
lar meeting Monday evening.
The attendance was large and
the business was taken up with
a promptness and despatch
which showed the earnestness
of the officers and members.
The first matter considered
was a communication from the
Chamber of Commerce at Wash
ington, D. CT asking that the
local club take steps toward a
patriotic demonstration on Reg
istration Day June 5. As the
result of a motion passed, Pres.
LobdeE appointed a committee
composed Of Geo. Jaehning,
Chas. Gales, Harre Starr, E. A.
Pease and R. A. Cooper to have
charge Of this demonstration.
Oppose Increase
A letter from the Railway and
Warehouse Commission was
next read, asking the co-opera-
ton of the club in protesting
against an increased freight
rate. The legislative commit
tee was authorized to formulate
and submit a protest against
any increase.
The Clubs secretary was au-
thorized to invite the Willow
Grove Farmers Club to present
its home talent play, Tony the
Convict" here at some future
date, and was also authorized tc
inform them of the various
play houses where the play may
be put on.
A. D. Stewart talked briefly
Of the work Of the State Safety
Commission of which he has
been appointed a member and
asked the assistance of the Club
in calling a mass meeting or
registration day for the purpose
of organizing Redwood County
Pres. Lobdell appointed H. M
Hitchcock, Ira Reynolds and H
w. Ward to assist Mr.. Stewart
in this work.

erty Loan bonds and asked the

CAPTAIN HINGELEY
TO BECOME MAJOR
Boys of Company to Receive &c.
200 from State as Extra
Pay for Service

The new officers of Company
L were appointed by Colonel
Mollison last Friday. First Lieu
tenant w. B. Clement was made
captain, Second Lieutenant John
~ lterbach was made First Lieu
liant and Sergeant H. L. Jor-
Ian was. made Second Lieuten-
ant.
Captain M. w. Hingeley is
slated for appointment as Major
of the Third Battalion, Second
Minnesota, and will receive his
commission very soon. Captain
Hingeley served as leader of the
Company L boys during their
stay on the Mexican border and
proved himself not only an eff
cient leader, but the personal
friend Of every man under his
command, and every member Of
the company is glad to know he
has received the well-deserved
promotion. Capt. Hingeley was
the first commander of the To-
cal company, and although he
has not lived in Redwood Falls
for.several years he is still looked
upon as really belonging to the
organization here, and his cap
taincy of the company seemed
particularly fitting. 1t is mat
ter of much satisfaction to Red
wood Falls that he will still be
with the Second Regiment when
it mobilizes.
Has Serevd Long
The commissions received by
CAPTAIN Clement and Lieutenant
Lauterbach are rewards for long
and faithful service with the
Company. Mr.. Clement has been
a member for the past eight
wears and first lieutenant for
the past four years. Mr.. Lau-
terbach has served for nearly
nine years, five years of this
time as second lieutenant. While
Lieutenant Jordan is younger in
the service, he is well qualified
for an officer as his work as Ser
geant and Company Clerk at
Camp Llano Grande showed.
For the past several weeks Mr..
Jordan has been in charge of
the drill work of a company Of
students at Cornell College, a
work in which he has been very
successful. 1t is felt by all con-
cerned that Colonel Mollison's
appointment of these three men
has been a very wise move and
that Company L. Second Mime
sofa, is splendidly differed for
it's future service.
Payroll Ready
Captain Clement has been
busy recently checking and sign
ing the payroll for the Company
so that the members may draw
the extra pay allowed them by
the State. The amount of this
payroll aggregates $4,000, and il
is expected that the boys will
receive this money soon.

short time unless the situation i'm
proved, has caused many large indus
tries to wake up to the seriousness OF
tie problem. The Southern Pacific Is
using $4,000 barrels OF fuel oil day,
which is nine to twelve thousand bar
rels more a day than II can buy or Pro-
duce. Its entire reserve will soon
be exhausted. and the reduction in
train service must then follow OF
necessity.
For months locomotives running
out of Ogden on the Southern Pacific
have been burning coal. being forced
to give up oil as fuel.
This winter. when the Southern
Pacific an dthe entire Pacific Coast
will be in the Utah and Wyoming
fields for coal. Ogden homes will be
competing with the entire west for
the fuel supply which heretofore
has been confined to the intermoun-
tain demands, and one possible re-
suit will be a famine.
There Is one safeguard and that is
storage.
Store your coal now and thus
avoid begging the coal dealers this
winter to let you have a lump
or two of fuel.
