Library of Late
VIM. G. Temple
Given To Soldiers
By Mrs. Temple
Orlando Reporter-Star.)

One of the most valuable acquisi-
lions which has yet been donated to
the reading room for the soldier boys
was the library of the late William
Chase Temple which was presented
by Mrs. Temple to Miss Alta Wright
and Miss Jessie White who are col
lecting books and magazines to be
sent to the several camps The library
of Mr.. Temple was one Of the most
complete in the South. OF all the val
uables left to his wife it was the
most highly priced. Among the many
books which were in the library were
two Century Encyclopedias of the lat
est edition. Encyclopedias are so ex-
pensive that few people can afford
them and hesitate to give them away.
For this reason they have been in
great demand at the reading rooms
and will be especially acceptable to
the boys. Over three hundred books
Of fiction besides histories and refer
ence books are among the collections.
The Temple home in Winter Park
was recently destroyed by fire. There
were but two things saved, the IL
hrary and small wooden stand upon
which was a jardiniere containing the
tri-colors. Strange to say this stand
was in a room directly over the place
where the fire originated, and was
the only article in the room which
was not totally destroyed.
In giving the library to the soldier
boys, Mrs. Temple said, while she
greatly treasured it, not so much for
its value, but for the memory of her
husband, yet she felt it would be Mr.
Temples wish to do his bit and for
this reason she gave that which she
thought would be Of most enjoyment
to the soldier boys.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE
WAR CONSCIOUSNESS

"The American people must arrive
at that state of mind which prevails
in France and England" said a
speaker recently returned from
abroad, THAT is, they must have so
definite and complete war con-
seriousness that they consider every
act of life, no matter how small, as a
factor in winning or losing the war !.
That way lies the quickest victory"
Many Americans have arrived at
this point.
IT cannot eat wheat bread any
more" said a we'll known man, 1T
seems to choke me when ! realise
how much it is needed over there"
That man had been awakened by
war conditions. He had given no
thought to his food supply for many
years, save to plan for having the
very best Of everything that the mar
ket provided. But now he has devel'
oped war consciousness.
There are still too many, however
who have no realization of the urgen
neec to save -four to go across thu
sea.
Tbev care more for their owl
whims Of appetite than for the lie
feat Of the enemy. Their Americanlsr
as we'll as their common sense, is
dead letter.
Take thought of what you eat da
by day.
Saving wheat Is as good a proof {
being a 100 per cent American as ca
be given just now.

A few stray cats and mongrel dogs
Inlay have escaped mistreatmert DUR
ing the observance of BE Kind to
Dumb Animals Week." but hundreds
of thousands of Florida tick infested
cattle did not get any consideration
from their owners.
Anyone who has watched the poor
tick-infested cattle suffer from irri-
tation, caused by the ticks boring
holes in their hides to suck their
life blood, must realize that eradica-
ton of the ticks is a worthwhile hui
name act, even if it did not pay large
profits to the owners from improved
conditions of the animals.
A prominent dairyman in jackson
VILE made the statement some time
ago that every cattle owner who does
not believe in tick eradication should
be treated to a large infestation of
req bugs in the middle of his back,
and the comparison of suffering is
not overdrawn.
Commenting upon the recent cleo
ton in Palm Beach county, when
compulsory dipping of cattle was car
Sied by a vote of 27S to IL, the 0cala

Men Needed
For Crews OF
Merchant Marine
(By Associated Press.)


Washington, May 1.-THE sea is
calling again to American youth.
AS the new ships of the merchant
marine glide down the ways, the need
for men grows more pressing. Album
dant opportunity to aid in winning the
war is offered the crews Of the new
vessels, with the certainty that when
peace comes there will be further ad-
venture and good pay in carrying
american commerce throughout the
world.

must go down to the sea If America is
to regain her old place among the
maritime nations is in the hands OF

coast, the Gulf Of Mexico, the Pacific
coast and the Great Lakes, to enable
us to get hold of the men who had ex-
perience at sea. We then got the CO.

Adjourned Meeting.

<AuyooAlACu NACCthiSs
Adjourned session of the Special
meeting of April 22nd, held April 23rd
at 8 o'clock p. m.
The council convened pursuant to
adjournment with all the members in
attendance.
The council at once took up the
question whether or no the City
should appeal from the decision of the
District court, rendered in the case
of George A. Tanner and G. K. Foslein
versus the City of Sank Centre, on
the wet and dry question.
Mr.. H. E. Leach of the firm of
Gunderson & Leach OF Alexandria,
addressed the council and advised
them as his views of the law in the
matter of the election contest. Mr..
Leach stated that he believed that
the District Court had made certain
errors in it's decision and that the
probability of a reversal of such decis-
ion was good, and was better than in
many cases which were appealed. He
also stated that Mr.. Gunderson had
told him, that if he, Gundersonwere to
decide as to whether an appeal were to
be taken, and the case his, he
would decide in favor of an appeal.
Mr.. Leach reviewed in some detail the
evidence in the case and his views of
the law as to the same.
Mr.. J. o. Ormond, of Morris, at
torney for the contestants, Tanner and
Foslein, then addressed the council
and gave his views of the law in the
case. He stated that he was positive
that the Supreme Court would uphold
the decision of the District Court. He
also stated that he believed that an
appeal at this time would not be
proper and made a lengthy speech CIV
ing his views of many subjects.
Mr.. L. L. Kells, City Attorney, who
had stated his views of the law to the
Council April 22nd, then advised the
Council that in his opinion the ques-
ton to be decided by them was simply
as to whether an appeal should be
taken. In arriving at this decision the
Council should not concern personal
views on the liquor question, it being
their province only to operate the
machinery of the City to conduct an
election in accordance with the laws
of the State. That the vote on the
license question had been counted by
the local officers as majority of one
against license, and this decision had
been reversed by the District Court,
and the vote declared tie. In so
reversing the result of the election
the District Court had been called up
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1918-04-25

to investigate and make report and
recommendations to the council, as
soon as possible.
The matter of decision of the Dis
trict Court on the recent wet and dry
matter was taken up and read. A
number of citizens were present and
addressed the council, requesting an
appeal to the Supreme court. The
council was divided on the matter and
finally voted to adjourn the meeting
until 8 p. m. the 23rd, and request C.
j. Gunderson to appear before the
council for further consideration. On
the motion of adjournment all voted
Aye save Aldermen Sullivan and Hal
version who voted No. The meeting
was adjourned to that day and hour.

Pope County Conis-
sioners Most Reaction
airy on Farm Bureau ?

Every county in Minnesota with the
exception of three is now organized or
is completing its organization for the
employment of county agricultural
agent in response to an urgent ap-
peal from the Federal Department of
Agriculture, according to an announ-
cement made today by State County
Agent Leader, Frank E. Balmer, st.
Paul, Minnesota. The three counties
are Douglas, Houston and Pope. In
Houston and Douglas there is an
active voluntary interest in the pro-
ject, and it is expected that these
counties will soon follow the action
taken by all the remaining counties
of Minnesota. In the near future il
seems that Pope county will be the
only county of the state that will have
the name of refusing to comply with
the wishes of the Government in
carrying out this part of the War
Emergency Program.
The Board of County Commissioners
of Pope county has even refused to
act on an appeal direct from Secre-
tary of Agriculture, David F. Houston.
Recently the Secretary of Agriculture
sent a telegram to the County Com
missioners Of Pope county as follows:
"The last Congress as part of war
emergency provided an appropriation
to assist in placing county agents in
each agricultural county in the United
States. Department of Agriculture is
cooperating with agricultural college
who has taken matter up with your
board. Since August tenth more than
thousand new agents have been ap-
pointed. Your county one of five or
six important counties in Minnesota
without local appropriation for this
work. Department hopes every agri-
cultural county will cooperate in en-
ploying agents that they may assist
during this important year in helping
the Government in stimulating pro-
duction, promoting conservation and
improving distribution Of farm pro-
ducts and food and other work Incl
dent to the war;"
Mr.. Balmer announces that, includ-
ing the membership of all counties in
Minnesota now organized, there are
approximately $4,000 members to the
county farm bureau organizations
This membership is actively backing
up the county agricultural agents in
carrying out an agricultural program
of work to support the nation in its
prosecution of the war.

on to decide some intricate and close
questions of law, upon which the at
torneys appearing before the council
were of different opinions, but upon
which the District Court had decided
In favor of the contestants. He also
stated that the election being a tie,
as declared by the court, and very
close, it was the province of the
Council to determine as to whether
they were satisfied that the result O,
the election was correct and it being
SO close and depending on intricate
questions of law, the council would be
justified in appealing the case and
obtaining the decision of the Supreme
Court thereon, so that there could be
no doubt as to what the will of the
people, as expressed at the election
really was. In arriving at the result
OF an election it was the duty of the
council to make sure that the laws of
the state were properly carried out
and Interpreted and in close elections
depending on doubtful questions of
law, the opinion of the highest court
and authority in Minnesota. was none
TOO good for Sank Centre, or any other
City.
Alderman Sullivan then moved that
the case be appealed to the Supreme
Court. Alderman Halverson seconded
the motion. President Hillerud, Aid
ermen Sullivan and Halverson voted
aye and Aldermen Jameson and
Bergman voted no. The motion was

The call was read which stated the
object of the meeting to be for the

that may come before the council.
The matter of contracting for the

matter of an ordinance governing the
