SPLENDID WORK
MRS. MOYNIHAN, TEACHER
STUDENTS WILL RECEIVE FIRST
AID INSTRUCTION FOR SICK
AND INJURED

Under the direction of the Red
Cross Nursing Services, fifteen young
women of Sank Centre are taking a
course in household hygiene, home
care of the sick and first aid to the
injured. Upon completing the course,
if the class pass the examinations,
they will be enrolled in Washington.
1t is from the ranks of those there en-
rolled that the supplementary person.
mel of the Base Hospital units, nurses
aides, etc., are chosen in event of war.
This does not mean that they will be
required to go. 1t is entirely mat
ter of volunteering and they will work
without pay, but are furnished trans
portation, lodging and subsistence.
Glasses of this nature are being Or
ganized throughout the United States
in rapidly increasing numbers. The
present war crisis has given them i'm
petus. Sank Centre is unusually pro-
gressive in taking up the work as very
few towns this size in Minnesota have
classes. St. Cloud has but recently
organized.
This matter has been agitated for
some time but only recently has any
active organization taken place. Miss
Harriet Erwin, as president, has been
untiring in her efforts to make it pcs
sible. Mrs. A. F. Moynihan, who is a
member of the Red Cross, has been
appointed instructress by the director
of the Red Cross Nursing Service.
The primary object, lof the course is
to teach personal and hous shold hy-
giene, which will aid lin the preven-
ton of sickness, simple instruction in
the care of common ailments, and also
what to do and not to do, in case Of
accident, till the doctor arrives. Aside
from this, they are Taught the making
of surgical supplies gof standard re-
quirements, which is Invaluable in the
event of war As course is also offered
I to rural mothers, under the supervision
of appointed Red Cross nurses.
The first official meeting was held
Monday night, at the home of Miss
Erwin. An. effort is being made to Sc
cure permanent classroom. One
half the time is devoted to theoretical
instruction and the rest to practical
work and demonstrations. In the first
lecture it was impressed upon the girls
that the Red Cross is not only ma
tional society, but also international.
1t is eminently neutral and has but two
offsets: neutrality and humanity.
Such course is Of immense value
to these young women from personal
standpoint and it is to be hoped that
movement is started which will
spread. Anyone is eligible to them
and the Red Cross is willing to help.
AS these classes are becoming more
and more prevalent, their value to
American women is being demon
strated. az

SCARLET FEVER
SCARE IN SCHOOLS
ABOUT rs CASES IN SAUK CEN
TIRE AND VICINITY AT THE
PRESENT TIME
STRINGENT QUARANTINE EN-
FORCED BY AUTHORITIES
CHILDREN WATCHED

Sank Centre has been more or less
excited for several days over the prev
alence Of scarlet fever in the public
and parochial schools.
At the request Of the school board
DR.. Burns, special representative for
the Minnesota Board Of Health came
to town the latter part Of the week
and made an inspection Of conditions.
The result disclosed number Of cases
of scarlet fever in school in mild form
and several others having been ser
lOuSly exposed were sent home.
Mrs. M. Stevenson, a trained and
competent nurse was sent out by the
State Board of Health Sunday eve
ming and has since been very busy
working with the children. -
From the best information obtain
able at this time there are il the
neighborhod of rs cases of scarlet
fever in Sank Centre and immediate
vicinity. Seven or eight families are
quarantined. These cases represent
children from both schools.
There has been an apparent tenden-
cy on the part Of some to neglect call
ing a doctor. In failing to do this a
great risk is being run, for there is
no disease where the after results,
even from a mild form, are as disas-
trous as in scarlet fever. Besides
failing to have prompt medical attend
ance failure to follow quarantine regu-
lations is violence of the state law
and those guilty are liable to heavy
fine.
The people now fully realize the
danger and are cooperating with the
school authorities, health inspector
and doctors to stamp out the disease.
1t has been the generally accepte,
theory that the disease is spread b..
the "scales" which come from the bod
les of those having had the ,lnalady
DR.. A. F. Moynihan, health officer,
positively says that the latest and au-
lucrative medical research has proven
beyond doubt that the disease can
not be contracted from the scales;
neither can one carry it to another;
that the disease can only be commun-
icated by personal contact and is given
from the throat or breath. The pa
tient is apt to scale, more or less, I'M
til the throat and tonsils have resum-
ed a healthy condition. Any case OF
sore throat should be attended to at
once with we'll known and reliable
gargle applied regularly. When quar-

WILL ATTEMPT TO
Vote OUT SALOONS
DRY LEADERS FILE NECESSARY
PETITION WITH CITY CLERK
J.F. COOPER
HEAVY Vote WILL BE POLLED
DRY SENTIMENT GRADUALLY
INCREASING BUT RESULT is
VERY DOUBTFUL

Wednesday afternoon a petition Was
filed with City Clerk Cooper signed by
81 voters of Sank Centre praying that
the question of voting upon the ques-
ton of whether Intoxicating liquors
should be sold in this city the coming
year should be submitted to the peo-
pie. This will mean heavy vote at
the city election on April 3.
The law prescribes that when 10 per
cent or more of the voters of any
municipality shall file a petition the
question shall be placed on the ballot
At the last city election $50 votes were
polled which necessitated a petition
with So signatures, so that there
were three 10 spare.
The dry sentiment has been grad
ually increasing in Sank Centre as
elsewhere over the country. On three
previous occasions the question of vot-
ing out the saloons has been submit
ted to the people of this city. In 1914
there was "wet" majority of 14O. In
1915 this was reduced to 40, and last
year it was increased to GA. However,
the vote in 1916 was much larger thar,
ever before in the city's history and
there was an actual gain in dry SEN
timent of seven per cent. The total
vote cast upon the question in 1915
was 574-206 in the First ward and
1858 in the Second. Six voters either
did not vote on the question or their
ballots were defective. The total vote
cast in 1915 was 472 and in 1914, 444
1t is taken for granted now that the
contest is on, both sides will use every
effort to win. Contests of this char
acter often become bitter, and many
malicious and utterly false statements
are put in circulation. On the whole
the saloons of Sank Centre have caus-
ed the police but little trouble during
the past year, and the leaders of the
"wet" side claim they are confident OF
victory on April third, and the dry"
forces are equally confident.
From the best information the Her
aid can get the result will be in doubt
until the votes are actually counted.

SINCLAIR LEWIS NEW NOVEL
"The Job" From Pen of Sank Centre
Author, Recently Published by
Harper and Company -

The Herald acknowledges receipt OF
the latest book from the pen OF Sim
clair Lewis, entitled "The job" In ali
of his writings the Sank Centre au-
thor has a style peculiarly his own and
his characters are of kind not US
ually attempted by other writers. 1.-The
Job" treats of the experience of {;
Young woman who becomes dissatls'
fed with the home environment In hei
native small Pennsylvania village, anc
finally locates in New York with he,
mother. After taking a business
course the real battle of life begins
in various offices and factories. She
longs for a home Of her own, and If
ter a lapse of several years she mar.
ries for home, only to find that she
had been badly deceived. Still later the
man who had the real place in heart
in her younger years appears upor
the scene agnin and the inference one
gains from reading the last chapter
is that they we'd "The Job" is buil'
about office life in the large centers
of population, and many of the situa-
tions depicted are strikingly true, be-
yond a doubt. In the preparation OF
the novel, Mr.. Lewis had allowed his
imagination to have full sway, anc
one reading any of his former books
or short stories, realizes that it covers
a wide range. Harper & Company
are the publishers, and they are notet
for the publication of novels of merit
Unquestionably 'The Job" will espec-
tally appeal to the girl who is making
her own way in the world, and just a.
surely there are critics who will cali
it great work. In a note to the editor
Mr.. Lewis states that most of the book
was written at Sank Centre during his
vacation period here last summer.
NEWSPAPER CHANGES HANDS
Carl Carlson, publisher of the Glib
bon, Mimi, Gazette, announced in his
paper a couple of weeks ago that he
had purchased the Melrose Beacon and
would take possession of the same on
April first. The Herald has known
Mr.. Carlson for, many years and wish
es to assure Melrose folks that they
will find him a clever and dependable
newspaper man and a high grade cit
izen. The present publisher of the
Beacon, Paul Appleby, has. made the
paper really high grade country
weekly and he will be missed by his
newspaper friends. He goes into a
larger field at Sac City, Iowa.

STORM BREAKS ON SUN
AFTER BREWING FOR
ELEVEN YEARS

Sank Centre citizens may feel
+ that they are getting it a bit thick
+ as far as weather is Concerned.
But up on the sun a storm is rag
ing that has been brewing forth
last II years. 1t has been in pro-
gress for two weeks and will con-
tinue for some time, Professor
F. P. Leavenworth of the Univer-
sity Of Minnesota department of
astronomy, said when asked about
the appearance of "sun dogs" a
day or two ago.
"The sun has been spotted at va
rious times for the last week or
two" said Professor Leavenworth
"The latest theory advanced is
!, that the spots are storms in the
hot atmosphere, similar to our cy-
clones or sea spouts. They run in
cycle of II years and are due at
this time"
