machinery to Lake county parties.
The Sitter and Minnaert brothers
were purchasers of Mccormick husk-

of corn to take care of and have fig

save their valuable crops is to make
an investment in modern labor saw

war ACTIVITIES
MEETING AT HURON YESTERDAY
ATTENDED BY MADISON
MEN.

An important meeting of the state
board of general war activities, which
included representatives of the Y. M.
G.. A., the Catholic council for war
work, the Jewish society, the Saliva
ton Army, the Y. w. c. A. and the
war library board, was held in the
Presbyterian church at Huron yes
terday and among those in attend
ance from Madison were Rev. G. Nc
Kibbin, of the Presbyterian church,
Joseph Henkin, Carl Nelles and p. j.
Hoidal.
The purpose of the meeting was to
make apportionment to each county
the amount of money expected to be
raised to maintain the respective as
sociations engaged in war activities.
The meeting was an unique one, IN
asmuch as Jew as we'll as Gentle
Joined hands in harmonious coopera-
ton and singleness of purpose.
Each organization had a speaker
present who described the aims and
efforts OF the body he represented,
thus precluding any chance for mis-
take concerning the purpose of the
disbursements of any and all funds
received by that particular co-opera-
ting body.
Among those who delivered adj
dresses in behalf Of these societies
were DIR. Bunger, of the Lynndale
CONGREGATIONAL church, Minneapolis.
DR.. Bunger is just back from an
eight months term of service in the
front lines for the Y. M. G. A. DR..
Wilson, of Chicago, spoke In behalf
of all the war activities. Father
Desmond, of Huron, presented the
facts concerning the efforts, needs
purposes of the Catholic council for
war work. The Jewish rabbi from
Aberdeen was present to speak for
the interests of all Jewish war or
CARNATIONS.
The total apportionment for Lake
county for all war activities was
placed at s1e,S75. This does not
mean that Lake county has thaI
much to campaign for in the future
The fact is the whole apportionmen
has been fully met through a pledg'
: made by the Lake county commits
t sioners about three weeks ago, o
: when they met last in regular session
and what Lake county officials hav
4 done other county commissioner
throughout the state are continuini
to do.
On the whole the meeting was on
of great promise and our Madiso'
friends who were fortunate enoug
to be present have certainly enjoye
a great treat. All generally recoe
nize now the great part the abov
mentioned organizations are takin
in alternating some Of the otherwis
horrible conditions resulting troll
the titanic world war and appreciat
? the humanizing and Christianizin
influences these agencies exert bot
among the men along the lines an

Kolb and Dill at
Vining Next Week

Pretty faces and a rare chorus
peep over the footlights, and the
clear notes of some really artistic
singers will delight the audience in
"The High Cost of Loving" which
comes to the Vining Theatre Tues
day. April 8.
But the great thing in the show
il the work of the comedians, Kolb
and Dill, whose reputation as fun
makers is more than sustained by
this attraction. Through the maze
of misunderstanding all glittering in
this light of laughter, they trip and
STUMBLED and stagger to a final happy
conclusion. The complications
brought on by the work of a mis-
chievous young attorney form a plot
through which Kolb and Dill wander
wonderingly, followed by the delight
ed audiences.
In addition, Kolb and Dill carry
their own jazz orchestra under the
direction of Fred R. Hoff, and give
d varied program of dashing music
featuring Charles Sieger, whose work
as trap drummer and performer on
a dozen other musical instruments is
popular with the house.

Warden Arrested For
Blowing Up Dam

On a charge made by the receiver
for the Rogue River Public Service
Corporation, Carl d. Shoemaker,
state game warden, was arrested for
blowing up the Ament dam several
weeks ago. According to the war
den's statement, the Ament dam fish
way has been a public menace for
several years, and because of the
doubt of its ownership it was impossi-
ble to secure any action on the mat
ter after the corporation went into
the hands of the receiver. An appeal
was made to Mr.. Hoover to secure Of
ficial authority, but as the matter
was delayed the state official decided
to take the matter in his own hands.
Mr.. Shoemaker went to Portland
Wednesday, where he will appear in
the federal court on the charge of
contempt of court. He will base his
defense upon the ground that sum-
mary action was imperative to con-
serve the food supply in southern
Oregon during the war.
