NEW YORK, July 9, 1917. The whirli-
gig of time brings many surprises, and 1t
would seem that the present war condl-
ton has suggested the straits that people
in the South were put to during the civil
War. when ladies were glad to garb them
selves in calicoes worn by their held
hands. Whatever the explanation may
ne calico has again found favor and is
seen at the various outdoor meets down
on Long Island and up in Westminster, as
well as at the Jersey places.

Bandana and Persians, are skillfully made

and other silk weaves, with which they
would formerly have been ashamed to
appear. Incongruity that lends note
of novelty, has always been an appeal
ing style device, and this fad has, so
far, been adopted only by the set that
can wear anything almost without tear
of adverse criticism. Nothing is too pro-
nounced in color or pattern for sport
clothes, and when garnishes is the rule 1t

ENDORSE KELSEY FOR JUDGE

The city officials received the resig-
nation of Cary Diehl, judge of Sank
Centre municipal court too late to have
his successor voted for at the recent
city election. Under the circumstances
it will be necessary for the Governor
to name a successor to serve until the
next regular election. This appoint
ment is made with the recommends
ton of the City council. Last evening
the members of the council and Mayor
Hennemann signed a petition to Gov.
Burnqpist asking for the appointment
Of M. C. Kelsey as municipal judge.
Mr.. Kelsey is well fitted by training
and experience for the position and
the city is fortunate that he has con-
scented to accept. His appointment
will in no manner affect ]. E. Bonner
as the latter as special Judge, only of
ficiates during the absence or inability
of the regular judge to preside.

TWO CHILDRENARE
FATALLY BURNED
TERRIBLE HOLOCAUST AT FARM
HOME OF HENRY HELLER
MAN SUNDAY.
KEROSENE CAUSES EXPLOSION
GIRL OF FOURTEEN BURNED TO
CRISP-BOY OF FOUR DIES
OF INJURIES

A distressing holocaust at the farm
home of Henry Hellerman, seven miles
east of Sank Centre, Sunday morning,
resulted in the death Of Della Heller
man, IA years old, and little son,
Raymond, four years old. The mother
and another son, Paul, barely escaped
with their lives but not until they, too,
were severely burned. The home was
completely destroyed.
The accident occurred shortly before
noon, the father and three other child
rem were absent attending Palm Sun
day services at St. Boniface Catholic
church. They were on their way home
from church when reports of the fire
reached them.
Mrs. Hellerman has been ar invalid
for a number of years, and Della re-
manned home with her to care for the
younger children and prepare the mid
day meal.
The accident was the result of the
oft repeated tale, careless handling of
kerosene" Thinking that the fire was
entirely out in the cook stove, Della
attempted to use kerosene to start the
fire, pouring the fluid from a can.
The explosion which followed COM
pletetely enveloped the body of the
girl in twinkling, knocked the other
occupants of the house down and set
fire to the house. The invalided mother
after much difficulty succeeded in get
ting the smaller children out of the
burning building. Della was undoubt-
edly knocked unconscious by the ex-
plosion and the Herald understands
that the cruel flames completely con-
su~ned her body.
Brothers of Mr.. Hellerman lived
near by, and FASTENED to the scene as
soon as the flames were discovered.
It was impossible for them to render
any assistance in saving the house
and contents and devoted their atten-
ton to relieving the injuries of Mrs.
Hellerman and the younger children.
Raymond lived about two hours
after the fire started. 1t is presumed
that death was caused by inhaling the
flames. He was born March "a, 1914.
The dead girls name was Della
Vessel. She was born in Melrose
township Feb. 1, 1903. She was the
daughter of Mrs. Hellerman by for
mer marriage.
Funeral services were held at St.
Boniface church, Melrose, Tuesday
morning, Rev. FIR. Sch.rner oficjat-
ing, and the funeral was one Of the
largest ever held in Melrose.
The loss of the house and contents
was about $1,000, partially covered by
insurance.

SHOULD RAISE OWN STOCK
MIR. Eddy Deplores Fact that Mime
sofa Farmer Cannot Secure
Fancy Stock at Home.

Hon. Frank NJ Eddy arrived in Sank
Centre Monday evening after having
spent the last four months in Nebras-
ka in the interest of the Minnesota
Bureau of immigration. Mr.. Eddy
expects to remain in Sank Centre for
some little time. In commenting on
his trip the gentleman deplored the
fact that it was necessary for Mime
sofa farmers to go to Nebraska and
elsewhere to purchase pure bred stock
of any kind, maintaining that the home
farmers should be in a position TO
supply the demands for the very best.
He said:
81 saw one Jersey Duroc sow sold
for $675 and the buyer was one of our
Minnesota farmers" said Mr.. Eddy.
"This was the most important single
Importation, but there were many 9TH
ers and all showed the need for our
farmers raising more high grade stock
instead of importing it from other
states"
The tour to advertise Minnesota re-
sources, Mr.. Eddy said, promises sub
stantial results. Entirely new terri
tory was covered and good working in
terest was found especially among the
Scandinavian, Irish and American peo-
pie.
Southeastern Nebraska is extreme
ly prosperous. Land there sells at SIPS
to $3.50 per acre, being equal to that in
southern Minnesota, and lots of corn
and hogs are raised. Much interest
was shown by graduates of agricultur-
al schools and others Of the younger
element who are looking for locations.
We have many good prospects among
then.'
immigration To- the Northwest this
year in Mr.. Eddy's opinion will de-
pend to a large extent ON national con-
ditinns. Entrance of the United States
into active warfare will greatly reduce
the prospective movement, he said.

Neutrality No Longer Feasible.

Our object is to vindicate the prin-
ciples Of peace and the justice in the
life of the world as against selfish and
autocratic power and to set up
amongst the really free and self-gov-
erned people Of the world such con-
cert of purpose and of action as will
henceforth, insure the observance of
those principles.
Neutrality is no longer feasible or
desirable where the peace of the world
is involved and the freedom of it's peo-
Piles, and the menace to that peace and
freedom lies in the existence of auto
cratic governments backed by or
ganized force which is controlled Who'll
ly by their will, not by the will of their
people. We have seen the last of neu-
trality in such circumstances.
We are at the beginning of an age
in which it will be insisted that the
same standards of conduct and of re-
sponsibility for wrong done shall be OBJ
served among nations and their gov
ernments that are observed among the
Individual citizens of civilized states.

Right Dearer Than Peace.


1t is a fearful thing to lead this
great peaceful country into war, into
the most terrible and disastrous of all
wars, civilization itself seeming to be
in the balance.
But the right is more precious than
peace, and we shall fight for the things
which we have always carried nearest
our hearts-for democracy, for the
right of those who submit to author
ity to have a voice in their own
governments, for the rights and iber-
ties of small nations, for universal
dominion of right by such concert Of
free peoples as shall bring peace and
safety to all nations and make the
world itself at least free.
To such a task we can dedicate our
lives and our fortunes, everything that:
we are and everything that we have,
with the pride of those who know that
the day has come when America is
privileged to spend her blood and her
might for the principle that gave her
birth and happiness and the peace
which she has treasured. God helping
her, she can do no other.
