COUNCIL MEETING

At a special session OF the coohcll
last Friday evening, after hearing from
some Of the doctors and the health Of
ficer, as we'll as some Of the citizens
and mayor, it was decided not to re-
commend the opening Of the schools and
public places until it was felt the inf1u-
cnza epidemic had subsidized enough to
warrant such action.
Action on the milk ordinance was
again deferred, SO that dairymen might
have an opportunity to read over the
proposed ordinance, which was on file
at the city hall, before it was taken
up again last evening.
The council is to loan the Water Pow
er company crushed rock to use in the
Building of the dam, as the company at
this time is having difficulty in getting
the material.
Bills were allowed to Herbert Royes
as substitute police in the sum of 500
and to II. E. Smoots as special police,
$36.

but prefers it be $4,000 each, the Red
Cross to receive half the amount OF
the sweepstakes.
Commander Ross has so much con-

at $4,000 corner. but will enter him
against Eternal and Purchase for any
amount. His only stipulation is that
the Red Cross be a participant in the

Enough Foot Ball Material al
Camp Meade for Many Teams.

CAMP MEADE, Nd, September 90
The foot ball season will open up
in a few weeks in earnest. The 211th
Field Signal Battalion seems to have
every other team on the defensive
even before the season opens. This
battalion includes many college and
university men who know the game
and have played. No distinct stars
are heard of at present. A little
camoufiage will be reported to make
the final rising of the bright lights
all the more sensational. Many of
the men are from the University of
Vermont, but Yale, Harvard and other
bigger schools are also represented.
The 63d infantry has some mighty
giants in its ranks and is certain to
be able to put a good eleven in the
field. In other units in camp there
is an abundance of material. The
sport will start off with 125 teams
and an effort will be made to work
a schedule up to climax by the
elimination of the weaker teams as
soon as possible.

SUGGESTS Plain Statement.

The American delegates submitted
suggestions that the allied govern
ments should make explicit pro-
nouncements to Russia to the effect
that Intervention was taking place in
the hope Of counteracting the sinister
influence of the central powers upon
the so-called bolshevik government.

and aspirations Of great majority Of
the Russian workers.

Alexander F. Kernsky, former Rus
sian premier, told the conference that
the members of the old constituent as
sembly were meeting secretly in Russia
and attempting to create a government
for the whole Of Russia
The conference was engaged in a
discussion of the resolution denounc-
ing allied Intervention in Russia
when Mr. Kerensky was invited to
speak. He asserted that Russia had
not left the alliance of the entente,
and said he offered once more his tes-
timony that Russia never had recog-
nized the peace of Brest-Litovsk and
never had ceased to struggle against
Germany. The passage of the reso-
luton condemning Intervention in
Russia by the allies could only favor
Germany. The only danger of interven-
aid certain private organizations and

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Male gossips are the worst Of the
breed.
Rumor has caused many a good
nerve to stick: in the mud.
It is best to settle a quarrel with
out any outside Interference.
Health may be wealth for some, but
it is poverty for the doctor.
A fool envies another mans luck
and a wise man envtes his pluck.
Many a lame man who doesn't limp
is crippled under his hat.
More people would dance If they
could escape the demands Of the

agent of temptation there would be
less sin in the world
A man gets lots of things he doesn't
want in this world and woman
