To Hold O. Husband

a wife-beauty, or amiability, or do
mesticity, or fattery-and marries it,
and when the wife fails to deliver the
goods she does so at the risk of los
ing her customer.
Wives affect to believe there is some
great mystery about keeping their
husbands in love with them. 1t is
simplicity itself They have only to
go on as they began.
Every woman knows how she at
tracted her husband. She remembers
her star play. To continue to win,
she has only to keep making the same
play
If her husband fell in love with her
because of her good looks. let her
count the time we'll spent that she de-
voted to dressmakers and complexion
specialists, and hair dressers, and let
her beware of breaking the spell she
has laid upon him by appearing before
him untidy and unkempt
II she caught her husband by being
a gifted listener, let her lend him her
ears more willingly after marriage
than before it. No man ever wearied

on his utterances, and never failed to
laugh at his jokes.
II she attracted her husband by her
similarity of taste, let her eat her
olives to the end of the meal without
making faces.
If she charmed him by her amiabil-
ity, let her keep peace no matter what
| the Droyocation,
If she ruled him into matrimony by
lattery, let her keep the incense
burner ever at work, and the perfume
of her praise ever in his nostrils.
Thus, by being changeless herself,
shall she solve the problem of why
men change after marriage. For what
we call the hckleness of man is his
faithfulness to an ideal When he goes
a-roaming he is often only still hunt
ing for the same bait with which his
wife caught him, and which she was
silly enough to throw away when she
| thought she had him hooked.

Society Hears Mccormack Sing,
Lukewarm interest seemed the at
titude of society people toward the
Mccormack concert when approached
on the subject yesterday mornLg.
You'd have guessed that every0Le OF
them much preferred to stay IN their
good warm homes or pursue some
other pleasures. But if you had seen
them last evening, listening and APP
plauding vigorously as the great Irish
tenor sang his clear, seemingly sim
pie songs YOU would have changed
your opinion completely.
They were everywhere, sprinkled
among the music lovers in the bal
cony, seated among the late corners
on the stage and in their usual seats
on the arena and in the boxes, Women
in opera coats and evening dress
emerged from every part OF the house
when Mccormack bowed his last bow
and finally refused to respond to any
further applause.
One OF the most interesting sights
in the audience was the party OF six
young girls from Brownell Hall whom
Miss Grace Smith entertained in the
Arthur Crittenden Smith box because
OF the absence OF her mother in New
York. In one OF the front seats was
little school girl in blue She was
serious as could be and listened at
tentively through the entire concert.

pupils are working enthusiastically
in order to win the Modern Health
Crusader" badges.
Seals are also on sale at several of

ing and helping along in the great

Five TONS OF FROGS
SHIPPED FROM NORRIS.
Two Morris Men Help Supply Frog
oLegs for Chicago and New-York
People -

Morris people have not yet learned
to conserve the food supply by roast
ing and eating frog legs, therefore
the Jackson Bros, John and Milton,
found it necessary to ship five tons
of frogs to Chicago and New York.
where they will be served on the mill
lionaires' tables.
These five tons of frogs were
caught at Lake Hattie, near Morris,
but to get that many frogs is no
child's play, and it is interesting to-
know how the frogs are caught and
the method used.
The Jackson Bros. stretched nets
for three-quarters of mile around
the lake just few feet from the wat
er and pits were dug at intervals
along the net. When the frogs go
to the lake in the fall to seek their
winter quarters, they come to the
net and have to stop. They then fol-
low the net until they come to a pit
and fall in. When the pits are full
the frogs are sorted over and the
big ones put into crates, while the
small ones are thrown over the net
and into the water. To get the five
tons suitable for market it was ne
cessary to handle nearly fifty tons of
frogs and this was all done in about
weeks time, as that is as long as
the season lasts. The frogs were
kept in large tanks in the lake until
about a week ago, when they we're
shipped to the above mentioned
cities, where the hind legs will be
placed on the market and sold for
table use.
People who have never tasted frog
legs may think this is fish story in
stead of frog story, but neverthe-
less there is nothing finer than frog
legs roasted and seasoned to taste,
and they bring fancy prices on the
market in the large cities.

COUNTY FARM LOAN
ASSOCIATION FORMED
Stevens County Farm Loan Associa-
tion Completed and Officers
Elected

A meeting was held Wednesday
erent parts of the county present and
the Stevens County Farm Loan AS
sociation was completed, with r. J..
Hall elected as president, J. w. Behl
as Vice President and T. H. Mcguire
Secretary Treasurer. There are
twenty-one charter members and
the articles of association have been
formed and adopted. More members
are expected to join within the next
few weeks.
The Federal Farm Loan Act was
passed in July, 1915, and the Fed
eral Farm Loan Board elected in
Aug. the same year. The country is
divided into twelve districts with a
Federal Farm Loan Bank in each
district. This country comes within
the district for which st. Paul is the
banking center and includes the
states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Mich
igan and North Dakota. Already
loans have been applied for in this
bank amounting to nearly $21,0OO,-
900, and S5,OOO,O00 of this amount
is for Minnesota alone.
The amount of loans already ap-
piled for shows the need of the Farm
Loan Associations and the farmers of
this county are sure to take advan-
tage of being members and getting
their loans at low rate of interest.

Grip Stolen in Sioux City

Geo. Brooks who recently returned
from Iowa, had quite an experience
while in Sioux City. He was stop
ping at the Howard Hotel there and
someone stole his grip containing his
personal belongings, a 5000 violin
and a certificate of deposit on the
Norris National Bank for $3.50. He
Immediately notified the bank here
of his loss and the next day the First
and Security bank of Minneapolis
called up Mr.. Putnam, saying that
man had presented the certificate and
asking if it should be honored. Mr.
Putnam ordered the fellow arrested
and young Brooks went to the city
the same night to make a formal
charge against the man. The violin
was located in a pawn shop in st.
Paul.

Miss Ellen Mullarky Killed

Miss Ellen Mullarky, formerly of
this city, and sister of Mrs. Roy
Kelly, whose husband was engaged
in the barber and later in the photo
graph business here, was killed near
Miami, Arizona, on the afternoon of
December 2. The young lady will
be remembered by many friends as
she was popular in social circles
while here. The funeral is to be held
at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, her parental
home.
From the Miami paper we take the
following account of the accident: -
Miss Ellen Mullarky, operator at
the Miami Telephone Exchange, re-
ceived injuries yesterday afternoon
while riding horseback near Bloody
Tanks canyon and died early this
morning at the Miami-Inspiration
hospital few hours later. When
the accident occurred the young
lady was accompanied on an outing
by Private Eberspeacher, of the
Seventeenth calalry. But before the
soldier was able to hurry to her as
sistance the victim of the tragedy
had slipped headforemost over the
head of the animal she was riding
striking her head on the rocks and
fracturing her skull.

Support :
EVERYONE ASKED TO JOIN
Get Service Flag to Display in the
Window and illuminate it
Christmas Eve

The Red Cross desires to increase
it's membership to 100000 and
that of course means a substantial
increase is wanted in the number OF
members in Morris and vicinity. The
Red Cross wants the strength and
support that will grow with an army
of members and has set Christmas
time to attain the goal, because the
Red Cross and Christmas spring from
the same spirit, and are two great
symbols of mercy, sacrifice and cheer.
To further identify the two, every
Red Cross member will be asked to
display his or her service flag in the
front window, and on Christmas eve
to place a lighted candle back of it.
This is a variation of the ancient
custom which has been revived re-
Gently of Fighting the Christ-child
on His way"
The Red Cross service flag is made
of paper-a white field with a blue
border and red cross. There is
space for smaller red crosses-one for
every member in the household.
These service flags will be furnished
to every new member and old MEM
bers are requested to call at Red
Cross headquarters and get one.
Every man, woman and child over

which costs so little. Red Cross mem

Tuesday of this week the ladies met
at the Red Cross Headquarters and
packed sixty boxes to send to the
boys now in the training camps in
this country. These boxes have been
furnished by the members of the
Students Club and their friends,
each box containing things that will
delight the hearts of those who re-
ceive them, such as homemade fruit
cake, candy, nuts, gum, tobacco, tai
cum powder, handerchiefs, etc.
Mrs. G. w. Geenty, chairman Of
the Red Cross Christmas box COM
mittee, with the help of several 9TH

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
MAKING BIG CAMPAIGN
Cause is a Worthy One And Contri-
buttons Are Now Being Received
by Them !:

C. A. Dushek, Chas. Vaughn and
F. A. Mullen of the Knights of Col
umbus lodge have been busy the past
two weeks preparing plans for their
campaign for funds. Their territory
includes the city of Morris and the
towns along the Great Northern Ry.
between Morris and Willmar. These
gentlemen visited the different towns
this week and appointed a commit
tee in each town to handle the work.
They we're we'll received in each
town by the citizens and members of
the Catholic church. The sum of $2,-
700 has been apportioned to the
above named territory and already
$1,000 has been subscribed and sent
in. Mr.. Dushek confidently expects
that the quota asked of the council
here will be over-subscribed.
The money raised by the Knights
of Columbus is to be used to build
and equip homes for Catholic young
men who are serving in the U. S.
forces, to aid in placing Catholic
priests with commands which have
not already been so supplied by the
government and to otherwise attend
to the physical and moral welfare Of
the soldier boys. The movement has
the sanction of the U. S. government,
is endorsed by the church and is en-
tirely worthy of support.
The bulk of the receipts in this
K C. drive will come from the fol-
lowers of the Catholic faith, yet it
is to be hoped that contributions
from those of other faiths also will
be liberal. The Knights themselves
have set an example of breadth, for
the Catholic Bulletin, the official or
gan of the Knights of Columbus, has
published resolutions signed by a
large number of the members,
strongly endorsing the work of the
Y. M. c. A. and declaring that it
has been doing a noble work and
is duly appreciated"
The response to the appeal for the
Y. M. C. M. war camp fund~was no.
BILE and generous. It is to be hoped
that the response to the appeal for
the Knights of Columbus will be
equally prompt and adequate.
