that Love- as shown forth in Jesus
Christ, is the only true basis for So
ciety.
The war and it's problems have
brought to us fresh realization of
the need for reconstructing our social
and industrial world from within by
the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Led as we
have been to emphasize the sacredness
of personality, we have been compelled
to apply that principle to all spheres
of life. -.
We see that, under the present sys-
tenn, property is more regarded than
human life, profits are considered of
more Importance than the welfare of
men and women.
We see that behind this war there
is another, less apparent but more
permanent the war that goes on
within each nation in it's industrial
life, which is especially manifested be-
tween those possessed of the power
that capital gives, and those whose
lack of property renders them subject
to~that power. We stand for co-opera-
ton in commerce and industry in place
of competition.
By this we do not mean that we
would here and there, restrain the
power of the privileged to exploit 9TH
ers. Merely to correct the more evid-
ent abuses of the present system
would not satisfy us. The whole struc-
ture of society needs refashioning up
on different basis. The teaching of
Jesus Christ leads us to the belief that
no modification of the competitive
system will remove it's evils: it must
be abolished.
The problems that need solving in
the spirit of that teaching are more
particularly: #
|. The Economic Relations of Ma
tons. Neither Protection nor Free
Trade, as commonly understood, salts
flies our ideal. We desire the organiza-
ton of international commerce in the
interests Of all.
2. The Relationship of Men and Wo-
men. Love, as taught by Christ, must
express itself in comradeship, and. this
lifts the relationship Of men and wo-
men out Of the region of comparison
The arbitrary distinctions drawn by
which men and women are assigned
wholly separate tasks must, therefore,
he abolished, and replaced by freedom
for each to choose the sphere in which
to serve the community. On such basis
alone can true companionship stand.
3. The Relationship Of Employer and
Employee. These are not permanent
forms of human relationship. We APP
ply in industrial sense the injunction:
Call no man master; all We are
brethren" We do, of course, desire a
better understanding between the
members of these two classes. But we
cannot be finally satisfied until, as
classes whose economic interests are
bound to clash, they are abolished, and
all are masters Of their own lives, and

SHOOT AT HUNTERS REST.

A new star appeared at the Hunter S
Rest Shooting tournament last Sunday
morning and walked off with the gold
medal without so much as begging the
pardon of the regulars who put in an
appearance every time, rain or shine.
This new wonder, Otto J. Schneider, is
hardly known to. Hunter Rest circles
and he will have some trouble to get
away with the bacon the second time,
because the prestige of the old gang is
at stake and they will put forth special
efforts to dethrone the upstart next
Sunday. Every one is anxiously wait
ing for the next try-out.
JOS Klaus is going to the bad. At
the first shoot he was above the average,
casting one eye toward the gold medal
with the other fixed on the leather
insignia The attraction downward has
been too strong and if Abraham should
stay away from the next shoot
''Sepp' will certainly be St Chas.
Hauenstein's work is meteoric, as is
very evident when his record is con-
sidered: gold medal, leather, second
place. On the whole the shooting
Sunday was rotten. You will have to
do better work, gentlemen, and have a
better attendance if you expect to attract
attention. The following scores were
made: y

DECORATION DAY AT FORT

Plans are practically complete for
an after Decoration Day celebration
at Fort Ridgely. Memorial Day will
be celebrated there Sunday afternoon.
June LIST. It is planned to gather to-
gether on that Sunday Afternoon, the
citizens of all the cities, villages and the
countryside for miles around for day
of recreation and also for a patriotic
demonstration. Col Hopkins would
like very much to see some sort of a
reunion of all those who have fought
the battles of the wars our country has
been engaged in. This would include
the boys of SCI, the Spanish-American
War Veterans, the boys who saw SER
vice on the Mexican border and last
but not least the boys of the World
War
J. A. Ochs has been appointed chair
man of New UlW and he will be glad to
hear suggestions as to how the citizens
of New Ulm are to take part in this cele-
bration. To those who have never
been at the Fort, it will be a worthwhile
trip. The scenery on the bottom road
is grand and the grounds themselves
are very pretty. No meals will be
served at the Fort and everyone who
expects to spend the day there must
provide the necessary eats. Ice cream,
soft drinks and the like will as. usual
be On sale. In planning your outings,
be sure to keep Fort Ridgely in mind
for Sunday, June 1st, for the annual
Memorial Day celebration.

EGG PRESERVING TIME Is
-0. HERE ONCE MORE.

To meet probable high cost of eggs
next winter, W. E. Stanfeld, extension
specialist in poultry at University
Farm, is advising the people of Mime
sofa to put down eggs in water glass
again this spring. He estimates that
100000 saved lastyear in this way.
While prices are higher now than they
were year ago and water glass costs
a little more, a substantial saving can
be made, says Mr.. Stanfeld. The
average family, he believes, should
put down not less than 20 dozen eggs.

Mr.. and Mrs. John Mack Of Milford
township have received several more
interesting letters IRON their son Arrnin
who is travelling with the .'Doughboy,s
sFrolic'' entertaining the mem ers Of
the A. E. F. In his letters he enclosed
several clippings from the A. e. #.
papers which speak in praise Of the
s.Doughboy's Frolic'' and tell how
Marseilles, Bordeaux and even Paris
looked forward to their coming. Quot
ing from his letters, 1--WE had all da,
Sunday in Paris and sure did some quick
sight seeing and will say that it sure
is a pretty city. 1t is much cleaner
than New York. I tried to see all I
could but OF course, I only got about
half through but saw most of the noted
buildings. Everything is cheap in Paris
compared to other cities. l visited
the Sarah Bernhardt theatre, Napoleon S
tomb, Eiffel tower, $50 feet high, Seine
river and it's eight bridges, Eloite,
Bastille, Arc de Triumphe and in
Vulnerable other renowned places.
There are between $4,000 and 100, 900
soldiers here. Yesterday I met two
boys from Minnesota in Paris at the
Red Cross Headquarters. They were
from Duluth and Brookton.

he was too far out of Bordeaux. About
thirty-seven miles they told me; his
division is supposed to go home during
the beginning of May.
In later letter he writes ''This time
saw all Of Paris. On the afternoon
of Easter sundayI went to the Madeleine
church, and talk about seeing flowers
There We're roses, roses, everywhere
In the church they had cross formed
of dark red roses about forty feet long
and the figure of Christ was made
up of white roses. It was a wonderful
piece of work l also visited the Notre
Dame which just year ago was bonn
barded by the Germans.
II have been to Bastille and also
Versailles where the Peace conference
is in session. 1t is a wonderful place.
l also took ride on a Ferris wheel, the
highest in the world, which was put

TIGHE ACCEPTS CHECK.

! It took Attorney Tighe of the Safety
Commission long while to make up
his mind, apparently, to accept payment
for his services as special counsel on
the infamous war board with which the
state was tormented. His hesitation,
however, was only apparent and con-
tinued as long as he. thought taxpayers
were alive to what the Safety Board
was doing. Mr.. Tighe at first stated
that he might possibly accept a part
of the check of $6,52144 since
expenses ran higher on account Of his
commission work but the check when it
was cashed was paid in full and state
i records do not show, so far as the re-
porter Of the Pioneer Press of St. Paul
could learn, that any portion Of the big
check was refunded to the state. Mr..
Tighe need not have bothered himself
to hesitate so long since everybody
knew he intended to accept the money
! from the very beginning.
