ERECTING LODGE BUILDING
AT CAMP DODGE FOR MEN

Soldiers at Camp Dodge, who are
members of Knights of Pythias, An
cient Order and Accepted Masons, Odd
Fellows, or who desire to receive the
work in any Of these orders are to
have the opportunity to do so in the
fraternal building especially erected
for that purpose.
The Knights of Pythias have their
share Of the money all raised, having
done the work in two weeks on the
dollar-per-capita plan.
This is an exclusive lodge building
40x120 fest. The first floor il used
for social features and the upper floor
is fitted up for lodge purposes. It is
likely that each order will have a Sec
retary in the building. Each Of the
lodges will have its regular meeting
night. The building will cost $10,-
900.

No Coal For Empty Cars.
Grain cars will continue to come
back empty from the Head of the
Lakes so long as there is no coal
there with which to load them, the
United States fuel dmipistration has
advised Governor Frazier. The COM
mission admits that the fuel situa-
tion is serious, and that the fact that
a season of the year when they are
usually carrying coal into the state
complicates the situation and makes
for congestion later on. It holds, on
the other hand, that it would not be
Justified in retaining these cars at the
Head of the Lakes until cargoes Of
coal can be found for them.

Unearthed by learned hands.
The passerby notes not a sound,
Nor views no straggler near,
He knoweth not the battle ground,
And so he need not fear;
He yearneth not for love that's lost,
And sheds no humble tear.
A stranger comes into the place g,
And toward the school house strays;
With fearful eyes and solemn face
Recalls his college days!
The fading light at sunset brings
Distress, regret and strife.
He knows the teaching Time has

A parable of life.

He sees the eyes serenity blue,
And sadly turns away.
