BOARD OF Commerce
MEMBERSHIP nIEETING TO DIS
CUSS IMPORTANT MATTERS
DECEMBER is

A membership meeting Of the Boar;
of Commerce will be held in their cham
Der on the evening Of December l6.
Many important questions in the inter
ests of civic affairs will be taken up,
probably the most important Of which
is the paving and repairing Of the
streets of the city. It is commonly un
derstood that street work and other
civic improvements have been kept
down during the period Of the war as
it was deemed necessary to divert at
tention to the successful prosecution Of
the war.
The government has asked all muni
cipalities to push public work as the
war is practically over and this will do
a great deal in relieving the labor sit
nation.
The Board Of Commerce has been de-
voting most of its time to war work
in accordance with the wishes of tho
government and will now take up civic
work.
All members who can possibly do
so, are urged to attend this meeting and
express their views on the questions
taken into considerations Announce
ment has already been made as to the
committee which will be in charge of
the meeting.
I Questionnaires, touching on a number
of proposals have been mailed members
and these are among the matters to be
considered, among which is public me-
mortal park in honor Of those serving in
the war and free ice skating rink.

CITY. COUNCIL MEETS
MORE TIME ON MILK ORDINANCE
GRANITE MONUMENT FOR
DECEASED SOLDIERS

An adjourned meeting OF the city
council was held Tuesday in order to
discuss more fully the proposed milk
ordinance that has been of much mo-
ment of late.
Mayor n. n. Bergheim stated that
the only way to get to the bottom OF
things in regard to the ordinance was
to secure a speaker from either the
state agricultural farm or the univer-
sity who can give a professional talk
on the subject and explain different
questions that are not yet clear. There
is also some complaint from the dairy
men in regard to the tuberculine test
Of dairy cows. Dairymen state that
men employed by the state makes tests
at different times during the year and
it would be necessary for the city to go
to the expense Of doing the same. The
ordinace will again be taken up on De-
cember II, when a speaker Of the state
department of agriculture will be here.
A revised. copy Of the ordinance was
read by the city clerk.
n. N. Bergheim, as chairman Of the
War Records commission Of Morrison
county, asked the city to appropriate
1924 toward the expenses Of the com
mission in gathering data on everything
Morrison county has done in winning
the war, which was granted.
The city council will meet with the
board of public work this evening to
consider street paving.
The Little Falls Black Granite com
pany has offered to donate to the city
a polished black granite monument on
which the names Of all the men of
Morrison county, who have given their
lives for their country during the re-
cent world conflict, can be engraved
The monument will be donated, provid-
| ing the city furnishes a site and base
The city will also have to meet the ex
pense of engraving the names and OF
a spire and top if so desired. The ex
|pense of providing site and base and
erecting the monument with a .spire
added will amount to about $1,000 which
would have to be paid by the city and
county. It was suggested that the
names of all men Of Morrison county
who served in the war could be placed
in a box and then laid in the
corner stone Of the base. The plan mel
with the approval Of the council and a
committee Of one alderman from each
ward together with the president Of ths

JOIN THE RED CROSS SAYS
PRESIDENT

fTeSlucnC WILSON Ill pfOclduldIlOu
made public yesterday, calls on every
American to join to American Red Cross
during Christmas roll-call week, from
the 10Th to 23d, and thus send forth
to the whole human family the Christ
mas greeting for which it waits and
for which it stands. in greatest need.
The proclamation prepared before the
president departed for Europe, follows:
~'To the American People:
Zone year ago 100000 Americans
by enrolling as members Of the Red
Cross at Christmas time, sent to the
men who were fighting our battles over
good will. They made it clear that our
people were Of their own free choice
united with their government in the de-
termination not only to wage war with
the instruments of destruction, but also
10y every means in their power to repay
the ravages Of the invader and sustain
and renew the spirit Of the army and
of the homes which they represented.
The friends Of the American Red Cross
in Italy, Belgium and France have told,
and will tell again, the story Of how
the Red Cross Workers restore ed morale
IN the hospitals, in the camps, ana at
the environments, and we ought to be
very proud that We have been permit
ted to be Of service to those whose suf
ferings and whose glory the heritage
Of humanity.
Nov, by God s grace, the Red Cross
Christmas message Of 1918 is to be a
message Of peace as well as a message
of good will. But peace does not mean
that we can fold our hands. 1t means
further sacrifice. We must prove con-
clusively to an attentive world that
America is permanently aroused to the
needs of the new era, our old indif-
ference, gone forever.
THE exact nature Of the future
service Of the Red Cross will be.
pend Hpon the program of the asso-
ciatel governments, but there is imme-
date need today for every heartening
word and for every helpful service.
We must not forget that our soldiers
and Cur sailors are still under orders
and still have duties to perform Of the
highest consequence, and that the Red
Cross Christmas membership means a
great deal to them. Then people of the
Saddened lands, however, returning
home today where there are no homes
must be the assurance that the hearts
Of our people are with them in the dark
and doubtful days ahead. Let us so
far as we can, help them back to
= faith in mercy and in future happi-
ness.
GAS president of the Red Cross, con-
scious in this great hour Of the value
of such a message from the American
people should be glad if every Amer1-
can would join the Red Cross for 1919
and thus send forth to the whole human
family the Christmas greeting for
which il waits and for which it stands
in greatest need.
