NORTH SIDE HIGH OF MIN
NEAPOLIS DEFEATS SAUK
CENTRE IN DEBATE FRIDAY

The debate between the Sank Centre
and North Side High School of Min
neapolis Friday evening attracted
quite a large audience. J. F. Cooper
was the master of ceremonies and the
judges were the superintendent of the
Long Prairie Schools, member of
the faculty of the ST. Cloud Normal
and a faculty man from the Morris
Agricultural School
The question debated was "Resolved
That Labor and Capital Shall be Com
PEELED to Settle Their Disputes IN
Legally Established Courts of Arbi-
tration." Sank Centre drew the affir-
NATIVE side of the question. This con-
test was semi-fnal in the Mime
sofa High School Debating League.
An unfortunate mix-up occurred dur
ing the rebuttal when the members
of the visiting team are alleged to
have violated the rules of the de-
batting League. The Judges awarded
them the victory by two to one vote.
Misses Clybourne and Iverson
greatly pleased the audience in the
rendition of couple of vocal duets
during the evening. Miss Mildred
Geuting was the accompanist.

DISTRICT METHODISTS HOLD
VERY SUCCESSFUL MEETING
IN THIS CITY WEDNESDAY

The Centenary Group meeting of
this District was held in the Methodist
Episcopal church on Wednesday after
noon and evening of this week.
Although these are busy times the at
tendance at both meetings was very
good. The speakers were William
Dover and DR.. Charles Pierce of Wa
dena, O.. L. Solstad of Alexandria
and Rev. G. H. Zentz OF, Fergus Falls,
while there were delegates represent
ing the Methodist Episcopal churches
from Eagle Bend, Long Prairie, Alex
andria, Osakis and Melrose.
The speakers were all very good
and helpful, but DIR. G.. II. Zentz was
exceptionally good in the evenings
speaking from the text "Give Ye Them
to Eat" in Christ's Miracle of "The
Feeding of the Multitude" He said
the boy who furnished the loaves and
fishes might have selfshly eaten his
lunch which he had a perfect right to
do, but through his personal sacrifice
the entire multitude were fed while
he himself lacked nothing while his
sacrifice was untold benefit to the
multitude.
Everyone present reported the
meeting as the best that has been
held in Sank Centre for many years

OBITUARY.

On Friday morning, March 18th,
Nels Larsen, one of Todd County's
oldest pioneers died suddenly at his
home in West Union township of
heart failure at the age of SO years,
10 months and 20 days.
Mr.. Larsen had been in good health,
despite his old age, until about week
before his death, when he felt some
what ailing, but was around as usual,
and therefore his sudden death came
as shock to the community.
Nels Larsen was born in Laaland,
Denmark, on April Is, 1885. He en-
migrated to the United States in 1860
and in 1866 he homesteaded the place
on which he has since resided and
where he spent his last days.
Mr.. Larsen was married in 1871 to
Lisa Rangaard of Sank Centre, who
preceded him in death about IA years
ago. He is survived by four sons and
three daughters, who are as follows:
Louis of Berg, N. D.; Chris and Al
bert E. of Govan, Sas. Can; Mrs. VIM.
Meader of Blanchard, Idaho. Miss
Jennie of Candy, Mimi; Mrs. Frank
Bland of Armada, Mo-; and VIM. M.
who resides on the home place, all of
whom were present at the funeral.
One son died in infancy and daugh-
ter Mrs. o. J. Johnson, of Kandota,
died in 1907. -s--y. -
Funeral services were held on Sat
urday, March % at home and church
and were conducted by Rev. Sparks of
Sank Centre and Rev. Stousland, the
local pastor. Interment was made at
the Long Bridge cemetery.-Con-
tributed.

VETS AND DRYS ARE BOTH
HOPEFUL OF VICTORY AT
NEXT TUESDAYS ELECTION

Everything is all set for the city
election next Tuesday. There are
three aldermen to be elected for two
terms. The terms of Gunther Hitler
I'D, Thos. Sullivan and Alex Jameson
expire with the end of the fiscal year.
Six candidates have filed for these
places, as follows:
Gunther Hillerud, AL E. DuBeau,
Alex Jameson, Thos. Sullivan, V. G
Wedge and G. H. Vandesteeg. These
are all high grade men men and the
city will be we'll served in any event.
The license question will very likely
bring out heavy vote. Judging by
appearances both sides are working
quitely and both are hopeful of sue
cess. The Herald understands that
the registration is much heavier than
it was year ago..

Centre The date has not been de-
finitely decided upon. In addition to
the "Whippet'' Murray K. Guthrie, a
Minnesota flyer, and one of the
famous American Aces will visit the
county, very likely at the same time
the Tank" does. In addition if Nh.
Rogers is able to secure the flying
circus for a portion of the drive in
the Ninth district Stearns county will
have them also.
Some weeks ago Mr.. Rogers promis-
ed the Herald editor that he would
visit Sank Centre before the loan
drive. 1t is expected now that he will
be here the second week in April. We
hope to announce the complete de-
tails next week for the evening meet
ing at which time Mr.. Rogers will
will explain the loan in detail. He is
a regular live wire American who has
gladly sacrificed nearly two years of
his time without one cent of remunera-
ton to handle the Liberty Loans The
success he has avchieved with the CO.
operation and assistance of his Co
workers and the people has attracted
the attention of the entire country.
In any event remember that the
Allies carried on our war for three
years; they were bled white before we
took up arms in defense Of humanity.
While the war has cost this country
money and men our outlay has been
but a very small proportion of what
they sacrificed.
In spite of the twenty odd billion
of dollars this war has already cost
the resources of the country have not
been scratched and the people were
never as we'll off financially as they
are today.
