President Burton Will Be Urged to
Be Present-O Other Prominent
Speakers

Friday, July 20, has been selected
as the day for the annual Station
Meet and Patriotic Rally at the Uni
versity Farm. The gathering will
have several new and special fea-
lures this year. Every effort will
be made to induce President NJ. L.
Burton, of the state university, to
arrange to be here at that time and
give an address. A splendid program
is being prepared to include several
other prominent speakers and some
interesting entertainment features.
More definite announcement will
be made later. The annual Station
Meet is coming to be a prominent
event in the community and the citi-
zens Of Morris and Stevens county
look forward to it as a day of espe-
ciaI interest.

that the world has known in recent

that the world has known in recent
years.
In time of war it's work becomes
magnif1ed in Importance thousand
fold. It's place could not be occupied
by any other organization. 1t is
public service and should not be
cIassed as a charity. 1t is sort of
national accident insurance; a civil
public service that furnishes a place
for every individual, whatever his or
her military qualifications, to do in
valuable service to the nation, and
for the nations fighting men.
The development of the Red Cross
as the medical arm of the United
States at war is preferable to govern
mental control, since in time of peace
the Red Cross organization becomes
inactive and ceases to be drain up
on the nations resources. The char
acter of it's organization enables it
to work more directly, and with far
less waste than any government
agency could.
The American Red Cross is always
first to succOr. Its ministratiOns are
directed by skilled executives who
know the need Of the moment and
are skilled in applying it. It's mach
inery is always ready and always
oiled and is set in motion without
any hitching delay or misdirected en-
ergy that so often characterizes the
efforts of volunteer or hastily con-
structed relief committees.
The high standing of the men and
women who are at it's head, the coop
Grafton of the government and the
fact that it's finances are subject to
the audit of the United States treas
ury department have won for the
American Red Cross the confidence of
the world 1t can carry on it's work
of mercy with freedom and dis
! patch that no other agency could ap-
| prOach.

Equipment Scarce for Home Guard
According to a report from the
Minnesota Public Safety Commission,
more men are available for home
guard organizations than can be
armed. Washington will furnish
500 rifles, it is said, and by borrow
ing from the University of Minnesota
and the various military schools in
the state sufficient number of guns
can be obtained to equip modified
guard
1t is feared, however, that many
of the Home Guard organizations
will have to be cut in half while in
some instances they may have to be
abandoned entirely.
Captain Spooner expects to go to
the cities this week and learn just
how much this condition may affect
the local company. More progress
has been made here than in most
towns in getting the company all
ready to be mustered in, and this
will bring the best possible recOgni-
ton to the local company.

Masons Give Red Cross 500

The local Masonic bodies voted
this week to give 500 to the Stew
ems County Chapter Of the Red Cross.
The money will be used by the local
organization in buying materials
from which the ladies will make Red
Cross supplies.
The Masonic lodges have also de-
cided to abandon the practice of hav-
ing a spread or banquet after initia-
tions and instead of spending the
money in this way, will forego the
pleasure Of the feed" during the
war, and each time set aside $500
for the Red Cross chapter,

Tells About Modern Mohican

Samuel Miller, the Mohican Indian,
was greeted by large audience at
the Lutheran Synod church last
Thursday evening. He gave a very
interesting and instructive talk on
mission work among the Indians and
the Mohican mission school in Wis

of his tribe were very appreciative
of the great help the school is to
them and that almost invariably as
soon as students had finished their
course of education and had learned
