PRESS COMMENTS
OUR WESTERN SOLDIERS.

At a time when the morals of our
soldiers are matters of such sedulous
concern both to government and the
communities that neighbor with them
good words spoken for the soldier boys
from the West by citizens of Charlotte
y. c., are particularly gratifying. For
some weeks $1,000 or more Western
troops have been stationed at Camp
Greene, near Charlotte, and now they
have been ordered elsewhere, prepa-
ratory to early departure overseas.
Citizens of Charlotte recently uniteG
in public testimonial of their excel
lent conduct at the Southern camp
and of their worth as men and SOL
diers.
The Charlotte News published a
page or more of these appreciative
messages. 1t is good to note by the
letter of the chief of police. that:
Not one of these boys has been ar
rested for any violation of the law.
Some of them have been taken up for
overstaying time in town, but no sol
der has committed the slightest act
that would cause criticism. Their
conduct has been marvellous, they are
gentlemen of high order; in all my
life l have never seen such bunch
of men. l cant speak in too high
praise of them. | think their people
back home should know what We
think of them
From business men, clergYmen, So
ciety and club women and bank off
cials the comment is of like charac-
ter. "A splendid lot of men-courte-
Gus. manly, worthy representatives of
the best type of Americanism;" the
finest body Of men / have ever seen
in my life" they have established in
honor their worthy. sturdy ancestry.
and exemplified the high order of life
in our grand new Wcst:" mo soldier
has been guilty of a rude word or
act"
The pastor of Charlotte church
quotes one of the Western boys as
saying: I'VE dare not misbehave in
the face of the kindly attention given
us here Even the ordinary prank
ish propensity of the average young
man was discouraged by the hospi-
table attitude of the Southerners.
There was mutual trust and mutual
appreciation, and the Southerners
have some responsibility
for the unmarried record of their
guests.
1t is very pleasant reading for the
home folks Of Washington, Oregon
and other Western states.

We are a patriotic country, each

The Sank Centre Boy Scouts, 16 IN

the ceremonies. They were taken to
Melrose in automobiles and made a
splendid impression upon the people
of the neighboring city. Chief Dis

the city on behalf of the Great North

flag in place at the top of the pole.

Benefit at Caughren Theatre
Monday Evening.

This is Red Cross week all over the
country. Benefit concerts, dances,
lawn parties, the proceeds of which go
to this helping hand" of our army
and navy, hold the centre of the social
field. Sank Centre, like other patriot
ic towns has contributed literally to
this organization. The Hespadia Club
will give the people Of this city anoth-
er opportunity to put money into a
worthy cause. Monday evening, June
25, they are to have the -Caughren
theatre with Douglas Fairbanks as
the particular bright and shining star.
He will smile his famous laugh in the
picture "In Again, Out Again" The
story is a satire on New York and
peaceful New Jersey, and events hap
pen in such rapid fire that one wond-
ers how Douglas stands the ordeals.
Those who have seen Douglas Fair
banks know that he will Smile his
way through any gloom party Anita

SAFETY COMMISSION ISSUES A
WARING TO ALL LIQUOR
MANUFACTURERS,
BONE DRY MINNESOTA, MAYBE
ORDER RESULT OF NUMEROUS
COMPLAINTS OF LAW VIOLA.
TIONS OVER STATE.

st. Paul, June 19.-"Blind pigging"
in Minnesota must stop. 1t is up to
the manufacturers to see that it is
stopped. Statewide prohibition, eth
er by an order from the State Public
Safety Commission or by the passage
of a bone-dry law by special session
of the legislature called for that pur-
pose, will follow unless conditions are
bettered.
The public safety commission yes
terday issued warning to that effect,
after it had been overwhelmed with
reports of instances of liquor law vio-
lions throughout the state.
So many complaints have reached
the commission that it's members feel
that the time has come for the manu-
facturers of liquor in Minnesota to
take hand. 1t is said that in sever
al raids on "blind pigs" in Hennepin
county recently large supplies of iq-
uor from particular breweries have
been found on the premises.
In it's warning, issued yesterday, the
commission says that it can no longer
"fritter away" it's time in prosecuting
violations of the license laws and puts
the matter squarely up to the brewers
in the following warning:
"The commission has found itself
overwhelmed with complaints from
different sections of the state, rural
and municipal, in regard to violations
of the liquor law. Scores of blind
pigs were reported and the commits
sion urged to inaugurate drastic ac-
ton to stop the evil.
"The commission has not approach-
ed the question either from the stand
point of prohibition or moral reform,
as such. The steps it has taken to
date have been actuated solely by the
necessity of the situation, to insure
peace and order and to carry out effl-
GENTLY the legislation and policy OF
congress.
"The conaission, with its many other
Important duties, of necessity cannot
fritter away it's time in prosecuting
violations of the license laws IN this
state.
"The situation has reached-a point
where it is up to the manufacturers
and licensed dealers in intoxicants 10
see to it that the law is observed. II
they continue to encourage and sus-
tain blind plugging there is no recourse
left to the commission but to issue an
order prohibiting the manufacture and
81 az l;m,or in the state or to urge
the governor to call an extra SESSION
of the Legislature to pass bone-ary
law. If that be done, under exlstlng
congressional legislation which pro-
bibits the shipment of intoxlcan!s
over interstate railways into dry terri
low the state will be dry and there
will be~no more blind pigging.

A RATHER EXPENSIVE
JOY RIDE FOR YOUNG
MEN WHO BORROW CAR

This story should serve as a
warning to the people who own
cars and a warning to people who
steal cars. Last Saturday evening
a party of young men from Grove
Lake drove to Sank Centre In q
Chevrolet and left the car outside
while they were at the theatre. I'm
the meantime four Sank Centre
young men, whose names the Her
aid has concluded to keep back
took the car and drove to MelrOse
with it. Coming back I'm a more or
less happy condition, they lost con
troll of the machine while rounding
the corner by the German Catholic
church. The car smashed over the
curbing, striking and breaking q
tree which stopped 1T. The Chew
rOlet was damaged considerably,
but the harm to the lawn and tree
was soon repaired. The young men
were released on request of the car
owners after they had made good
the loss. This was a charitable act
I'm that the law penalty for such
deed is severe.

VERY PROFITABLE LOAD.

Wednesday morning VIII Engel
came to town with his automobile,
drawing trailer, with probably the
most valuable cargo that was ever
loaded into a single vehicle. In, the
car was his eight children, five boys
and three girls, the oldest ten years
and the youngest three months. In the
trailer were three cans of cream. vii!
values his kids at 100000 each, and
they look as if they were worth 1T.
The three cans OF. cream brought
S13.37, making the total cargo worth
$500 ,013.37. If Roosevelt were presl-
dent he would recommend that the
government furnish Will with car

PALMER POST ALWAYS LOYAL

The members of the G. A. K. have
always been in the front ranks OF any
of Sank Centres great undertakings
or campaigns. Now that the war fer
yor is on and the mighty plea for
money is heard on all sides, the mem
bers of this grand old organization,
have once again heard the call and
have responded. Last Thursday the
Post men met and voted $500 to the
Liberty Loan and $40 to the Red.
Cross. B. R. Palmer Post. has set an
example to Sank Centre, which will
undoubtedly prove to be the means OF
being an incentive to others, to follow
suit in their donations to worthy
causes.
