WHITE SENTENCED
TO ten YEARS
JURY OUT ABOUT ONE HOUR AND
BROUGHT IN VERDICT OF
GUILTY.

Z The trial of Clarence White, charg-
ed with murder in the first degree
for the shooting and killing of C.. d.
Sloan and R. s. Piatt last March, did
not take up much time. The jury was
drawn Tuesday afternoon and at two
o'clock Thursday brought in a verdict
Of guilty.
We imagine that the charge OF mur-
der in the first degree must have been
changed to second degree, as White
only drew down ten years. Judge
Crawford sentenced White shortly
after the jury came in. This IS all oi
the story the Record has been able tc
find out before going to press.

RED CROSS NOTES

In the week beginning May goth,
Minnesota. Montana, North and
South Dakota, the states comprising
the Northern Division of the Amer
ican Red Cross, have been asked to
raise $3,625, ,SO0-the divisions por-
ton of the $1OO,0O0,000 asked by the
Red Cross-that it may continue its
war work for our soldiers and the
people of our Allies. OF this amount
Minnesota has been asked to raise
S2,644, 500, Montana 100000 North
Dakota S4O7,5OO and South Dakota
$250,OOO. Among Red Cross leaders
in the various states there is no. the
least doubt but that the quotas will
be raised. The only mater @. eon-
lecture is to what extent the al.o.-
ments will be over-subscriDed. An
intensive speaking campaign, under
the direction Of R. B. Osier of the
University of Minnesota extension
department especially assigned to
assist the division speakers bureau
during the campaign, began through
out the division on May 9TH and will
continue with mora frequent meetings
until the close of the drive. In ad-
dition to the army of four-minute
men already serving throughout the
division, and the regular Red Cross
speakers who have been active for
months, Mr.. Osier has obtained the
services of fourteen British and Ca.
madam officers. recommended by Cap
tain W. S. brewery of the British
who will make tours of the division.
Soldiers and sailors will not be asked
to contribute to the Red Cross fund
, according to word received from
/ Washington. If they desire to con
tribute their donations will be ac
cepted, but it is the feeling of the Rec
Cross leaders that soldiers and sail
| ors have offered enough, for theil
country; that it is up to those al
home to contribute, that the lot of the
fighting men may be made little
easier.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION

The Emmons County Sunday School
Convention met in Linton on Wednes-
day and Thursday of last week. Rep
resentativas were here from schools
in every part of the county and most
delightful convention was enjoyed by
all. On Thursday afternoon the
Methodist church was crowded to it's
greatest capacity. Every session was
intensely interesting and it is believed
that all the schools which were repre-
sented received an uplift which will
enable it to make greater gains dur
ing the coming year than have been
made in the past.
Special mention should be made of
the work of the Linton Boys Band.
They gave concert on Wednesday
evening, and led the parade on Thurs
day afternoon. The County Associa-
tion officers fesl themselves greatly
obligated to the band for their SER
vices.
The chief emphasis of those who
gave thu addresses was the conserva-
tion of the life Of the child rather
than the redemption of that life after
much of it had been wastad. Modern
methods of Sunday School work, as
well as the needs of raising the stand.
ards of the various schools of the
a.eeunty, were emphasized. Everyone
who attended the convention was i'm
pressed with the greatness and i'm.
portance of the Sunday School.
The pinciple factor of the success
of the convention was the work Of
Miss Bertha R. Palmer, who is tn:
Field Secretary of the North Dakots
Sunday School Association. Her ad
dresses were highly educational, in
spirational and practical. Her sug
gestions were such that they can b,
put into practice in the smallest or tn;
largest school in the county. We sin
cerely hope that Miss Palmer vii
come again and help us to incrsas,
the efficiency of our Church Schools
The county was divided into two dis
tricts and it is planned to hold dis
trict convention in each of these late
in the summer. This will enable NOR,
people to attend and will result in in
creased efficiency in the individual
schools of the county.
1t was decided to send delegat,
to the State Convention which vii
meet in Grand Forks, June At. MIR
j. H. Jennings Of Omio, president o
the Emmons County Sunday Schoo
Association, was chosen as the coun
ty representative, with Mr.. R. E
Mccain of Braddock and Mr.. E. P
Zunksl of Temvik as alternates.
The convention was success iron
start to finish. It was the mos
widely attended convention which ha
been held in the county for savera
years. Much good was accomplishe
and will be accomplished as the re
suit of this convention.
The newly elected officers for tn
ensuing year are as follows:
President, Mr. j, H. Jennings.
President, Mr.. j. H. Jennings.
1st Vice President, Mr.. H. E. Rice
I'd Vice President, Mr.. L. H. Brigg.

The impulse which moved our print

modesty. OF these, that OF protection
seems most often disregarded BY the

summer clothing in winter Is a per-

OF the skin causes congestion OF the
