"For She Has Saved the Soul of the
World"

France embodies all of lowell
ness and NIL OF valor. Beauty is
her handmaiden, and strength her
shield bearer, and the shining cour-
age OF her daughters has matched
the courage OF her dauntless sons.
For three and half terrible years
she has walked, high of heart,
through the valleys of the shadow.
Her body is in torture, but her
forehead is alight with the beauty
of the morning. Never in all his
tory has there been such steadfast
loyalty in the doing of dangerous
duty, such devotion to country,
such splendor of service and of
sacrifice, and great shall be her
reward-=for she has saved the soul
of the world. From an address
by. Theodore Roosevelt at the an
nual dinner of the Pennsylvania
Society of New York.

here last Friday, accompanied by hard
wind most of the day. The thermome-

Saturday and Sunday nights were al

Sunday morning a couple of hours.
The snowfall was said to be II or II
inches on the level, but the wind
caused it to drift to depth of several
feet in places.
Road Boss Simmons got out his snow
pillow Saturday and opened up the roads
all over town and as far west as the
bridge. The weather remains cold
every night and the snow is disappear
ing very slowly. Quite a number OF
sleds were seen the past week.

Somewhere in France"

when morning breaks and | arise,
And see the sunlight play and dance
Upon the wall, before my eyes,
think Of him, "Somewhere in
France"
My son, whose boyhood and whose
youth
Were kept SO free from care and pain
ny us, who prayed he'd love the truth
And count true manhood more than
gain.
At noon. when turns the day toward
night
And clouds float high in heavens
eXpanse,t
My thoughts are with him, far from
sight,
Ny son, my pride, Somewhere in
France"
God give him strength to serve Alright,
But let not mercy be forgot;
Oh! may he conquer in the fight,
And in true service falter not.
At night, gaze upon the skies
And myriad stars see at a glance:
Those stars are shining where he lies,
My stalwart son, Somewhere in
France"
God keep him safe and make me strong
TO do my part whcreer it lies,
Until the right shall conquer wrong
And Freedoms sun blaze in the skies.

Electric Light Prices
Some Figures from Municipal Owned
Plants

The St. Paul Daily News Of March
22d contained an article in regard
municipal owned electric light
plants, and gave the prices charged
consumers at these points. One Of
the places cited was Rochester,
MINI, where the manager of the
plant states that he has been in
charge of the plant for six years.
He says:
The maximum rate for light is
10 cents a kilowatt hour, and the
minimum is cents. Power rates
are from % cents to 6 cents. For
cooking only 3 cents is charged.
All these rates are subject to 10
per cent discount when bills are
are paid before the 10th Of the
month.
These rates are based on cost Of
operation OF the old plant. The
new plant, with all it's up-to-date
machinery, has been in operation
only GO days. but a cut in rates,
amounting to 80 per cent or 35 per
cent is scheduled to be put into ef-
feet in few weeks
The city is making too much
money on its plant. After saving
enough to build the best plant mon
ey could buy, it finds the money
piling up too fast, SO it must re-
duce the rates, already lower than
those in almost any other Minneso-
ia city
Leonard Peterson, superintend-
ent, municipal plant at Thief River
Falls, is another advocate of munich
pal ownership for efficiency. The
rate at Thief River Falls, where
some water power and some fuel
oil is used, is from s cents to SC
for light, and from 6 cents to 2 l-2
cents for power. There is 10 per
cent discount there also.
The plant made a profit Of about
$751; last year. 1t furnished
the city all its street lighting, in.
cluding 10 blocks of white way,
free.
The Thief River Falls plant has q
debt of $50, 1000, but it has $55, ,00(
in the treasury to pay off the bonds
1t could pay off its debt any time
but cannot get the bondholders t
surrender their bonds.
Rates at Thief River Falls were
Is cents when the municipal plant
was started II years ago. Mr.
Peterson has been in charge of tn.
plant since the beginning.
