locals TROUNCED
BY LITTLE FALLS
HIGH SCHOOL FOOT BALL TEAM
FAIL TO CROSS GOAL
LINE.
BETTER TIMES HOPED FOR
ARE EXPECTED TO MAKE A
BETTER SHOWING IN RE-
y NAMING GAMES.

The local H. S. football team met
its third successive defeat for the
season this time at the hands of the
Little Falls H. S. The decisive de-
feat of Little Falls by St. Cloud the
previous Saturday gave hope that our
"Winless" Wonders might come out
victorious but it was not to be. The
Little Falls team was vastly differ
ent aggregation with Sims and several
others in the line up who though
scholastic failings or injuries were out
of the st. Cloud game.
The local team started in like world
beaters taking the ball from Little
Falls in short order and began 4
procession down the field only to lose
the ball on an attempted forward
pass. Ditto the last statmellt six or
eight times and add that three times
out of four Little Falls were success
full in long passes and you have a fair
report of the game. The Hrst half
ended "Sims" IL, S. C. 0 and was
harder fought than the score irdi-
Gates. The second half found US stage
struck and the scores w-re more nu-
merous. Final 80. The officiating

UNDER ARREST AGAIN.

According to advices from Mime
.apolis on Wednesday, Victor Knutson,
former superintendent OF, schools of
Todd county, was arrested in the
Flour City by 5, a federal officer,
charged with using the mails to de-
fraud. II will be remembered that he
was charged last summer with de-
frauding the school districts and
teachers Of his county out of petty
sums; and with malfeasance in of
fee. He resigned during the investi-
cation and it was supposed that the
matter would be dropped. Perhaps
the arrest Of Tuesday has to do with
another line of activity.

folks back of them Sank Centre citizens should
subscribe literally for these bonds
We may pirate about our loyalty and willingness
to give last dollar if need be, until dOom's
day, but unless across in substantial
when the government needs assistance
slackers.
The Herald has faith that the people of Sank Centre
and Western Searns will do their duty before the sale
closes.
Uncle Sam might raise the sums needed for pur-
poses by direct taxation Instead the is only
asking you to loan it to them.
The argument may be raised that one is hard up

purpose of illustration, compelled to Dor

This would the citizen four dollars year net in

There never was time in the history of the nation
when big privilege to be American citizen
at Four dollars is mighty small investment to be

located at Camp Dodge had subscribed for worth
of the bonds Saturday evening and expected
that the sale would be pushed the million dollar mark
before the week ends What is true of the boys at Camp
Dodge is true at the other Word has also been
