PATRIOTIC TALKS
FRIDAY EVENING
SAUK CENTRE WOMEN'S WAR
COUNCIL ARRANGES AN I'M
PORTANT MEETING.
JUNIOR AUDITORIUM Is PLACE
REV. FIR. DINGMAN AND M. J.
WOOLLEY WILL CRATE
SPECIAL FEATURE.

Friday night the Rev. FIR. Dingmann
of Park Rapids is to speak at the
Junior high school auditorium. His
subject will be on war time subjects.
While FIR. Dingmann may not ind it
possie lie to speak IN anything new rs
regards this wa, it is reasonable to
think, from all reports of him, shat he
will attack the SUBJECT. from = new
angle at least. He is a man of t,.--
man descent, who has Iiaced his alleg-
lance on the side witt, his adopt. d
country. His loyalty is unquestioned.
Since the declaration of war between
the United States and Imperial Ger
many, this priest has enlisted his SER
vices to the cause. He gives his en-
tire time except that demanded by his
parish and gives that time free,
travelling expenses included, for the
purpose of making patriotic speeches
throughout the country. He will have
an interesting talk for Friday evening,
as many who have heard him before
can testify. The head office OF the
Women's War Council is responsible
for his appearance in Sank Centre as
they notified the local Council of him
and endorsed him in highest terms.
Another man, Mark Woolley will
also appear with him. Mr.. Woolley
is also an able speaker and is solid
American. His talk will also be
along purely patriotic lines.
AS a special favor the folk dances
which were given at the Junior Red
Cross entertainment last Friday even
ing will be repeated. By this time,
their fame has spread abroad to such
an extent that those who did not see
them before will not miss it this time,
while those who did see them are an
xious to have the young ladies appear
again.
The meeting is to be free of charge.
1t is the purpose of the Council to-
get as many people as possible to-
gether to hear two good speeches.
They will not be over long and will
be interesting every moment. The.
surrounding towns have been asked to
send delegations and will do so. Ais
the country has been thoroughly adj
yised of the meeting and a large
number is expected from there. As
far Sank Centre itself, it always turns
out.

Will help SAVE
BABIES OF CITY
LOCAL WOMEN ASSISTING IN
WORK NATIONWIDE In
IT'S SCOPE.
THE PARENTS SHOULD ASSIST
FREE MEDICAL EXAMINATION
TO BE GIVEN EVERY CHILD
UNDER FIVE. !,

Tuesday, May Ia, marks the OPEN
ing day of the Child Welfare Confer
ence which is being conducted under
the auspices of War Council, and to
which every progressive mother with
child or children under five years
of age is expected to bring her baby.
The conference, so far as Sank Centre
is concerned is strictly local and IN
the hands of local physicians, nurses
and attendants, who are personally
and vitality interested in the welfare
of their community.
The reason for such a conference is
this: Last year 100000 babies in the
United States died. This year the
government proposes to save at least
100000 of those precious little lives
In large number of cases, the child
rend need skilled medical advice. In
England this work is given as much
consideration as the Red Cross with
the result that thousands and thous-
ands of babies are being saved, ac-
cording to authentic reports. Saul
Centre has been asked to do it's share
in this work and the Council which
has undertaken the task, asks only
for cooperation.
What will happen is this: Already
canvass has been made of the city
and country for the purpose of Sc
curing the names and ages of each
child under five. The work has been
explained to the parents, who in the
greater share of the cases express
their appreciation and eagerness to
obtain the benefits of the conference.
The names have been secured, an APP
pointment will be given each mother
who will present herself and her child
at the consulting rooms at the Junior
high school at the stipulated day and
hour. The waiting room will be in
charge of capable women who will as
sist the mother in every way possible.
When the doctor in attendance is
about ready for his next case, the
child and the mother will be taken to
the dressing room where the child
will be prepared for the examination.
They will then be taken into the con-
sulting room and a thorough physical
examination will be given by one of
the local doctors. The doctor will be
assisted by Mrs. D. B. Caughren, a
graduate nurse. A complete record
win be made Of the case and advice
If needed, will be given to the mother.
The parents VII not be urged to see
