more than was fed to us on our

STUDENTS DISPLAY TALENT
Elimination Contest at Junior High
School Auditorium Tuesday
Happy Surprise.

Tuesday evening The Senior high
school auditorium was thrown open
to the public for the purpose of hold
ing an extemporane Gus speaking con-
test in which eight high scho.l stud
ents competed. THIS is the first event
of this nature this year and Was pre-.
paratory to the contest wl.ica will be
held on Friday, Dec. ID in the Junior
building in which the Sixth congress
sic nal district merrcs-s will take part.
The winners Tuesday nigh: will have
the privilege Of competing next week.
There will be SEVERN towns represent
ed and the occasion will no doubt,
cause much interest and attract a
Ia: ge number.
The contestants TUESDAY, nigh. were
in order Of their appearance, Homer
Bisel, Bessie David, Denton Reed,
Genevieve Beck. Oliver Cass, Mabel
Kinsella, Lulu Lamb and Lillian
Brooks. They all dia themselves
great credit in their efforts ami it was
a surprise to the audience that suck
exceptional speeches could re made
with so little opportunity for prepara-
ton. Most Of the subjects had to do
with the war and the audience exper-
fenced another surprise when they dis
covered that these boys and girls
knew more about what was gong on,
knew more about patriotism than
they themselves. Miss Lulu Lamb
won first place, Der.tcn Red second
place and Oliver Cass and Mabel
kinsella tied for th;"l place. TIE de-
cision was fair anS therefore salts.

chestra which played several selec-
tions very we'll. It has developed
during the time since the operetta

were incensed because they did no.

young musicians that their efforts are
not at all wasted upon the public and
that they are absolutely an indispens-
able part of every school program.

A very unusual wedding occurred
Monday evening, Dec. Sd at eight
o'clock on the first floor of the Fender
CAST building, Third street, when Mr..
West and Miss East were united hap
PLY in wedlock, forming very pretty
union, which, we trust, may result in
a long and happy life, and that they
may make friends with all, and be
the means Of extending happiness to
many other homes hereabouts.
The new couple have recently taken
on new attire throughout and are
making u very pleasing appearance
from the street. The union was
brought about by the Lee-Gingery
company, the easy-plan housefurnish-
ers after much planning and consider
able outlay of cash. The bride was
accompanied by Miss Bed Room Suite
from the Luger factories, dressed in
old ivory and trimmed with French
Plate and carrying delicate bouquet
Of climbing roses.
The groom was accompanied by Mr..
Duofold Suite direct from the famous
Karpen factories, appeared in select
ed CHARTERED Oak with a handsome
suite of Genuine Goat and a top coat
of the Finest Golden Gloss.
Promptly at eight o'clock to the
strains of Mendelsohn's inspiring
wedding march artistically rendered
by Professor Graphophone, direct
from the Columbia Shops. The
bridal party took their positions in
the brilliantly lighted new front show
window of the Lee-Gingery company,

Surgical Dressings Are
BadlysNeeded-- Help
Saue Boys at the Front

Last week the surgical dressings
classes started. There were many
enthusiastic candidates who sent their
names in. At the meetings which
have been held, however, the average
attendance has been about six OF
eight to class.
Here are a few facts. Almost 100
Of our best young manhood from Sank
Centre and vicinity, have left since
the declaration of war to serve in the
various branches Of the army and
navy. Some of them are already in
France, others are on their way across
and the remainder will be there before
spring. The American army is at the
front; some have already lost their
lives; others are wounded. 1t takes
good many dressings to take care of
a wounded soldier. To be exact, it is
estimated by those who know, that
with serious wound, 5000 dressings
are needed from the time a soldier en-
tiers the hospital until he is dismissed.
The majority of these dressings have
to be made by hand, there is no ma
chinery delicate enough to handle ma
terial used. Almost every days, Mrs.
Moynihan, secretary of the Sank Cen
tire Red Cross branch, receives a let
ter begging for supplies. Those who
attend the classes work hard, but by
the end of the evening. the little
that has been accomplished seems
almost mockery as one thinks of the
numberless thousands more that are
needed, so desperately. Every woman
and girl of responsible years, and yes,
the men too, should be helping. They
are doing it in other places, why not
in Sank Centre? If you heard that
one of Sank Centres boys were
wounded and couldn't receive proper
treatment on account of the lack of
equipment, wouldn't you, personally
see that he got it? Why wait until he
is wounded until, perhaps, he is dead
from those wounds which have become
infected?
The regular days for meeting are
Monday and Tuesday evenings and
Wednesday afternoons at the Senior
high school. Call Miss Avis Rowe
and tell her who you are and that you
are coming. And then come. And
don't put it off until after Christmas.
You may be busy getting ready for
Christmas this year, but no one with
spark of patriotism should be. This
is year to forget your friends and
remember those who are making it
possible for yor tt observe Christmas
in peace. Write to your friends and
tell them you are so bus- -oakir~
surgical dressings and knitting "a
sewing for the soldiers that WOW
haven't time, nor the money to give
them gift this year. 1t VIII be all
right with them. and they will think
lot more of you on that account.
Don't put. it off until after The next
social function either.

slave holders with negro barracks
in the near vicinity drew our atten-
ton.
No matter how homely a shack
was, it almost invariably had a fire
place at the front of which on a chilly
night, evidently came the inspiration
to the negro banjo player. We hardly
see where any other inspiration could
come from and the utter abandon of
the people as whole got on our
nerves.
At times we would run into a stretch
of surface rock that would cover the
ground for miles, then again it was
black loan with out rock for long
distance. 1t has been rather wei
year down this way and the crops
have not all been up to standard. All
the towns have Indian names in
Oklahoma, such as Talala, Oologah,
aSageeyah, and Nowatah. The last
appealed to our sense Of humor as we
hadn't had any water on the train for
20 hours, due to carelessness of rail-
road officials; also having only seven
candles allotted to our car to see by at
night. Our porter sat around the car
all the way, held us up for everything
he sold us, let us keep our car swept
and make our own beds and towards
the end of the journey took off his
hat and announced thasly:
Gentlemen, l know the accommo-
dations have been very limited on this
car, not thing to do with, but have
done my best, and am now asking for
a little tip"
Then he started down the aisle, hat
in hand. We sat in the front seat
and informed him that the bunch
would never have known it if he had
got off at Camp Dodge and never
come. He got about third of the
way down and judging by the re-
marks that were shot at him, he for
got his super-abundance of intestine,
came flying back and remained very
quiet until the end Of the journey. He
was also subject to the guard re-
strictions and could not leave the
car. During the latter part of the
trip We sprung can of cigars, Jim
Segers gave them to us, by the way
We intended to treat friend but we
We're forced to sell them all owing to
the scarcity, and had the satisfaction

AS we travelled along we journeye6
through part Of Oklahoma's oil region
Pumps and drills were busy and the
color of the water generally was
greenish. Oklahoma is developing in
to real oil state, we understand,
and great number of northern men
have holdings there.
Never get the idea that the ma
jority of undeveloped and uncultivated
land lies to the north and west of you
in Minnesota. There are countless
acres of such land down this way, a
great deal of it is timbered too. Ties
were stacked along the tracks at
places and at intervals you could see
a lumber mill going at full blast. Ma
turally, great deal of the help is
composed of colored people, whose
eyes popped out at the passing troop
train.
Like the older days of tented wag-
ons and tired horses, in this section
too. Prairie schooners were seen
many times. People live long ways
from town generally and for stretches
it is sparsely settled.
