7 BARRELS OF BEER
and | CASE WHISKY
TAKEN BY SPIRITS!

Thomas w. Swinson and C. W.
Brandborg, the two deputies who
were left in Kelliher to keep their
eye on some additional "evidence,"
and which is being shipped to Be-
midji by freight, returned by auto
at l o'clock this morning.
In speaking of the spectacular raid
on the "clubs" Mr.. Brandborg de-
clared that the spirits had spirited
away some of the "evidence" while
enroute from the Midway club to
Kelliher. A rechecking of the pack
ages showed that two barrels of beer
and one case of booze took flight in
some manner. The haul by these
men consisted of 16 barrels of beer
and 16 cases of whisky.

American socialist delegates to the
German called peace conference have
issued a statement of their position
on peace 1t includes the scheme
for union or federation of all free

stricken nations and general disar-

nexations and no indemnities. They
favor the return of all unoccupied
territory. Restoration of Poland on
basis to be determined by referen-
dunn Poles. A referendum will de-

GIVE SIS To RED CROSS

Order of Odd Fellows Friday evening
the local lodge voted to subscribe for
$500 worth of Liberty Loan bonds
and also voted a donation Of $25 to
the Red Cross fund.
After deciding economy does not
require that people stop eating but
to eliminate waste, Laqua, Mitchell
and Jahr were instructed to serve
lunch following the installation of
officers July 6.
An important rule adopted by the

that the weekly sick benefits can
not exceed two-thirds of the annual

The lodge decided to keep dues of
the soldier boys paid during their
service in the army.

HOW THE DOLLAR WAS EARNED

An interesting feature at the meet
ing Of the Ladies' Aid society of the
Methodist church yesterday afternoon
at the home of Mrs. J. Van Arnam,
was held. Each member of the aid
was requested to tell how she earned
a half dozen sterling silver spoons
ways in which the dollar was earned
such as baking, ironing, pressing
their husbands suits, etc., and
among the most interesting was the
one given by Mrs. B. D. Hanscom,
wife of Rev. Hanscom, which was as
follows:
How did I earn my dollar?
l may not be fully able to explain,
But of one thing 1 am quite certain,
What is my loss will be your gain.
Now this dollar which I bring you
Has history beyond a doubt;
For to me it is clearly evident
It has been very much about.
Some few days ago it happened
That to the parsonage there came
A couple to be married,
And the bride, of course, to change
her name.
And as the custom always is
For such a little service rendered,
The groom dug down into his jeans
And the parson was remembered.
So on this occasion mentioned,
The usual thing transpired,
And a pair of silver dollars left,
And the happy newlyweds retired.
Many years ago, it was agreed,
And this agreement was for life,
That all the wedding fees the parson
got
Should go, of course, to the parsons
wife.
But did l earn this dollar?
Most certainly I did,
For I have washed, ironed, cooked
and mended
For the parson and his kids.
And so with you, my friends, my
money l divide,
And let it never again be said
That my dollar 1 had not earned
| Or my dollar I had not paid.

and we want the public to realize that
without this product and without suf-
ficient labor the farmers of the United
States cannot increase or even main

1t chiefly supports must be put upon
the same preferred basis as the making
of war munitions, even If other less
vital industries suffer thereby for ma
terials and men.
These are the measures that We de-
clare to be vital to the feeding of this
nation and It's allies next year:
81 That the manufacture of farm
materials be given equal preference
with the manufacture of war NUM-
tons as regards supplies of necessary
raw materials.
SO. That service to the country in
farm machinery factories be cOnsid
cred of equal Importance with service
In munition making plants, Govern
ment or private.
"3. That labor on the farms be con
sidered as of equal Importance with
the production of war munitions.
II. That the raw materials for farm
ing machinery and the finished goods
be given equal preference by the trans
portation agencies of the country with
munitions OF war.
These measures must be taken i'm
medateiy to be effective, because the
use and demand for farming machinery
are seasonal We must have right now
materials and the men to make the
farm machinery that the farmer at
home and abroad must use this Fab
