The Great Northern Railroad Com.
pany has ordered flagpoles to be set
up, at every one of it's seventeen main
divisions. The Willmar division re-
ceived their tlagpole several weeks
ago so that it was among the first to
put up their pole. The pole which was
shipped from Idaho, is one hundred
feet long and is of white pine. The
approximate cost is 1925 Several
coats of white paint have been put on
so the pole presents a pleasing ap-
pearance. The bottom and top ends

non, under the direction of F. c.
Beese, railroad carpenter. The pole
was set in a concrete base, ten feet
square but will be supported for at
least week by guy ropes. Very lit.
tie trouble was encountered in putting
up the large pole altho at first it
seemed as if the telegraph pole to
which the pulleys were attached would
break off. new guy rope however,
had to be substituted for one that
broke while the pole was in midair.
Over an hour was spent in hoisting the
pole. The flag, which has already been
received, is very large, measuring
twelve and one-half by twenty-five
feet. 1t will not. however be hoisted
inside of a week or ten days. No def
mite plans have been made as to form
alities on the occasion when the col
ors will be raised, but it is expected
that patriotic addresses will be made
either by railroad officials or by some
of our townsmen. The services of a
band will be requested and it is hoped
to make it real patriotic demonstra-
ton.
