FARMER CLUB HELPING
WITH WAR ACTIVITIES
Members of Stevens Township Farm
ers' Club Pledging Acre Crop
to Uncle Sam

The members of the Stevens Town
ship Farmers Club are donating an
acre of their farms to war activities
and already thirty acres have been
set aside, the proceeds to be used for
patriotic work in connection with the
war. The idea is to give all that
one acre will produce and the amount
will depend Of course on the condi-
ton of the crop at the end of the sea-
son. This is a good idea and should
be taken up by other farmers of the
county.
This club also gave farewell par
ty on Wednesday evening of last
week in honor of one of their mem
bers, Ed Schieve, who left with the
last bunch of boys from this county
Music and speeches were enjoyed and
a lunch was served. This is the
sixth member from the club now in
the service of the country. The club
has it's own hall known as Loveland
Hall south of Chokio.

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE
BACK FOR ONE WEEK
Miss Frances Frenette Here to Fin
ish Work Started on Former
Visit

Miss Frances Frenette, the public
health nurse who spent several weeks
in Morris and Stevens county recent
ly, is here again to complete some of
the work which she started at that
time. She makes the following state
ment:
Thru the sale of Red Cross seals,
which campaign was managed by
Mrs. j. G. Morrison of this city, the
schools of Morris we're entitled to a
demonstration nurse for period of
two weeks, which time was put in
about month ago, but as that time
had to be divided among three schools
| was unable to finish UP the work at
any one of the buildings so the school
board has made an appropriation
large enough to allow for the serv-
ices of a nurse an additional week.
AS the engagements are planned at
the st. Paul Office a. good many weeks
before being filled, was quite unable
to get here any sooner
Already quite a few corrections
have been made; some pupils wear
ing new glasses; others having had
tonsils removed and still good many
have had teeth repaired or pulled.
II shall endeavor to reach as many
homes as possible this week and am
glad indeed to be able to do this for
the good of boys and girls. They
are happy to tell me of corrections
made but not more SO than am to
listen to them.
ut is great satisfaction to re-
turn and find such response to the
notices sent out to- parents, which
shows a great deal of interest in
pupils on the part of their parents
and is only as it should be.
'.This is only demonstration of
what can be accomplished by perm
anent county nurse, and think of how
many more pupils need attention, not
only in the city schools but the rural
ones as we'll"

FARM BUREAU MEETING
HELD LAST SATURDAY
Executive Committee Takes Up Many
Matters of Importance to
Farmers

meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Stevens County Farm
Bureau was held last Saturday and
the work of the county agent was
outlined for the coming year. Pre-
sident R.. w. Keeler presided at the
meeting and over half of the direct
ors were present.
1t was decided to hold a field meet
ing in every township in the county
during the next few weeks to con-
slider the matter of more silos and al
falfa. An attempt will also be made
to get each township organized and
farmers club started. A campaign
to increase the membership of the
farm bureau will also be conducted
during June.
A resolution was passed asking the
Public Safety Commission to sus-
pend all public and private ditching
during the busy season in order to
leave more men available for farm
work. 1t is important to get the
land drained out, but it is more i'm
portant to farm the land already
drained and under cultivation.
An attempt will also be made to
have every acre of tilable land in the
county under cultivation next year.
There are some patches of land that
will not be farmed this year as it is
getting too late to plow it and no
one can be found who can put it into
crop This matter will also be re-
ferred to the Public Safety Commits
sion.

BILLY MOORE TELLS
OF LIFE in TRENCHES
Recently Returned From France At
ter Taking Part in Thick Of
Fight

The Orpheum Theatre was filled
almost to capacity both of the nights
that Sergeant Billy Moore and
the Welsh singers appeared. The
music of the Welsh singers was espe-
cially pleasing, several selections be-
ing rendered by them including a
number of patriotic songs and old
ballad favorites as encores d. Owen
Jones and Ernest John were the solo
lists, and d. j. Thomas the accom-
panist. These three are the only sur
vivors of this famous organization
which previously tuored America, all
the rest of the original company hav-
ing been lost with the LusitaniaI
The applause which greeted the
appearance of Sergt. Moore was deaf
ening. He opened his remarks by
stating that he did not pose as an
orator, but rather he would attempt
to take his audience with him from
Western Canada to England, to the
hospitals, and back again to America.
The young man deserted a thresh-
ing crew in Western SasIzat tchawan
and enlisted la days after the Kaiser
had opened his world wide war Of
determination. He told of his short
period of training in Eastern Canada
and how 33 transports carrying 40
600 men conveyed by seven British
cruisers sailed down the st. Lawrence
river into the Atlantic in November,
1914. The reception and training
in England was recounteds and the
arrival in France in April, 19a5:
The battle front was referred to as
s.hell with the lid off and thekbottom
dropped out" In grahpic manner
he told of the brutality of the Ger
man soldiers in their raping, multili-
ating and maltreating of old and
young women, girls and babes, the
crucifixion of prisoners, the severing
Of hands of children, etc. All of these
things the speaker had witnessed.
The purpose, he said, was to terrorize
the world and impress the people
with the strength of the Imperial
military program.
Of the first division of 10000 men
sent over by Canada, which Sergt
Moore said was one of the finest body
of men the world had ever seen-over
80 per cent Of them will never return
The charge that the British had
pushed the Canadian soldiers into a
death trap he pronounced as dam
nable German lie and propaganda
spread for the purpose of denoraliz-
ing the morale of the civilian. Sergt.
Moore said that Tommy Atkins (the
British soldier) is doing his full share
and have made more German sausage
than any other allied nation"
He said that Democratic and peace
loving America had been chloro-
formed by German kultur for 40
years, and were caught mapping.
Now that we are In the war" he
said, I'VE will clean up Germany, its
kultur and its militarism. we Will
not stop until the German army Is
exterminated, because by this means
only can world wide democracy and
everlasting peace be secured. Sergt.
Moore admitted that he hated the

Steuens County Getting Ready
For Next Red Cross War Fund

and Chapters and through the news
papers has made every effort to give
in detail full accounting for the ex-
penditures of the past year.
To those who are to study the de-
tails of how each penny has been
spent, printed statements covering
all War Fund appropriations are OBJ
tainable from Chapter Chairmen.
This leafiet covers some of the
principal battle grounds in the Red
Cross War against want and misery
but other millions are being constant
ly appropriated to meet new needs as
they arise, and the War Fund must
be replenished, for it is inconceivable
that such work should ever be al
lowed to suffer for the lack of mere
money.
h And remember this-that every
dollar and every penny of every dol
lar that you give to your Red Cross
War Fund goes only for War Relief.
All costs of administration, and for
Humanitarian work, other than War
Relief, such as the Halifax and the
Guatemala disasters, are taken care
of out of the revenue derived from
membership dues.
You need have no fear but what
your subscription will be expended
with strict business integrity and
with the highest specialized business
and administrative ability for the
purposes to which you pledged it.
Give to your Red Cross until your
heart says stop-it is the Heart of
the World.

priations up to March 1, 1918.
