Brook Park now has street
lights, thing which we have
been dickering about for some
time here in Askov. As we un-
derstand it the General Light &
Power Co., who furnish current
to Askov are anxious to serve us
with street light, but they want
to collect the total bill from one
man, firm or corporation. This
is not to be wondered at either
as they surely don't want to
chase from house to house and
collect 25c a monitor what
ever the amount may be--for
such service. Askov, not being
Incorporated. we should think
that the proper officials to take
up the matter would be the of
ficers of town of Partridge. The
following from the Brook Park
Banner explains how they are
doing it down there:
Several street lights began
doing duty Wednesday night. An
all night service will be main
tanned. This village being in the
unincorporated class, the running
expense of these lights will be
borne jointly by the township
and villagers $3.50, as it were.
This was a generous act of the
town board and is duly appre-
,ciated."

born populations subscribed as
Literally as others.
The united spirit Of the Amer
lean people, the solidarity of the
Nation. made up as it is Of people
from all nations, have been de-
monstrated.
A second loan is contemplated
within the next few months. The
same things that made the mi
tial loan Of two billion dollars a
success will operate to make the
new one equally successful. In
fact, the information regarding
Government bonds and finances
now possessed by the people of
the country will make the pla-
cling of the next issue of bonds
less difficult. Those subscribers
OF the first issue who were not
allotted their full subscription
will give the new issue a start of
more than billion dollars, since
it may be regarded as certain
that they will not lose the oppor-
tunlty to obtain the amount of
Government bonds desired.

SOME PLEASANT FACTS

The Liberty Loan of 1917 was
a greater success in whatever as
pect it is considered. The
Government called for two bill
lion dollars and over three billion
dollars was subscribed for by
more than four million people.
This large subscription and this
great number of subscribers were
obtained, after short campaign,
from Nation that as a people
were not accustomed to purchas-
ing Government bonds. The
spirit with which vast numbers
of citizens and organizations
worked to make the loan a sue
cess is not an umimportant ele-
ment in making the loan not
merely success but a triumph.
1t should be remembered. too.
that the bond issues of other ma
tions were sold when the foe was
either on their territory or at
their gates. Oar bonds were sold
when danger was far from us.
The bonds were bought in the
calm exercise of patriotism and
sound business Judgment after a
campaign of education and infor-
nation.
Richmond, Va. the old capital
of the Confederacy. bought a Lii
berty Bond for every five inhabi-
tants. Montana, in the far West,
largely exceeded it's quota of
bonds. Little villages all over
the country exceeded their quo
tas as the metropolis of the coun-
try greatly exceeded its. There
was hardly State. city or COM
munity that did not do the same.
Poor crop conditions. a recent
great fire, and other local causes
resulted in two districts falling
a little below their allotments
but the large oversubscriptior
everywhere else more than made
up for this unavoidable deticien
cy. Cities with large foreign

KERRICK
From Our Correspondents

| FROM our correspondent
Geo. Bissonnette is spending
few days at his home in Whea-
ton.
d. ]. Curry was a caller in
town this week and "Forded"
out to the farm.
"A large number of people went
to Frank Mach's place for the
Fourth, while others went to
Moose Lake and Bruno.
Charles r. Rostrom has en-
listed in the army and will leave
here Saturday for Duluth, where
they will entrain a few days
later for the pacific coast. Char
ley is one of the boys who are
willing to do their bit and we
wish him good luck.
The stockholders of the Ker-
rick State bank held their an
nual meeting at the bank Tues
day, the 3rd, at which time a
dividend was declared. The
meeting was we'll attended and
very much satisfaction expressed
with the condition of the bank.
Word has been received from
Tom Furlott who is in training
at Detroit, that it will be anoth-
er month or so before they can
leave for the front. There would
be pity in our hearts for Ger
many if a few hundred huskey
lads like Tom ever got after
them.
The dance given for the bene-
fit of the Red Cross Saturday
was a decided success. $4,000
was taken in from the dance
alone. Special thanks are ex-
tended to Mr.. and Mrs. Reece P.
Davis and VIM. Sage who fur
nished the music entirely with
out charge.
A meeting of the Kerrick
branch of the Red Cross Society
will be held at the town hall on
Saturday, July 14th. and every
one interested is respectfully re-
quested to be present.. The meet
ing will be called promptly at 2
p. m. There were as members
enrolled at the first meeting and
it is expected they will all be
present at the next meeting and
as many more as can come. Our
territory is to include the dis
trict around the town of Kerrick
as we'll as the immediate town
and therefore people from the
northeast end of Bruno town
ship and people Of the town of
Nickerson will be very welcome.
The organization is to be COM
pleted on the above date and we
desire a large attendance so all
may take part.

| HANDIlNV VF FARM IABOK
Applications for farm labor are
better handled in Minnesota now
than they ever have been before.
The office in Minneapolis, man.
aged by d. d. Lescohier under
the Minnesota Commission of
Public Safety, has so arranged it's
business that there is none of the
waste and confusion often found
in the private agencies. The
state office is sending out ex-
pericnced farmers where expert
enced men are needed and COM
mon labor where that will do.
A class of labor is applying at
this office which never came to
the state Office before.
After this date the office will
not receive applications from in
dividual farmers. A farmer who
wants hired man, after he has
looked around to see if he can
find anyone at home, getting help
from the nearest village if posi-
bic will make application thru
the township chairman of the
county organization, or thru the
labor committee in the nearest
village.
The applications will be for
warded to the Minneapolis office
only by the chairman of the
County Labor Committee or by
the Labor Committee in the
market town. In that way
there will be no danger of send
ing men out from the city only
to find that the place has been
filled when they arrive. and every
man who makes an application
will be sure of getting the help
he needs at the earliest possible
moment.
In the villages, merchants in
some cases have volunteered to
go out and work in the field
leaving the store in charge of the
girls for one or two days of the
week. In some cases the village
carpenter or village mason has
enlisted for part of his time and
even the village pastor is going
to take one or two days out of
the week to work in the fields as
a patriotic duty.
When the application comes to
the office in Minneapolis no soft
hand office man will be sent out
to work in the fields. Anybody
who goes to work on the farm
will have callous spots on his
hands. kinks in his arms where
the muscles are punched.
strength enough in the back to
pitch bundles all day. There are
