Girls
Win State HOnOrS
REDWOOD COUNTY BREAD-BAK-
ING TEAM TAKES FIRST
PLACE AT STATE FAIR
TWO BOYS WIN
WILL BE AMONG BOYS
AND GIRLS CLUBS EXHIBI-
TORS AT COUNTY FAIR

The Redwood County bread baking
team composed of three girls from
the Lamberton high school took first
place IN the bread baking contest held
at the state fair last week. The girls
of this team are Miss Blanche Keller,
Captain, Miss Vivian Anderson and
Miss Magdeline Clausen. Second award
in the contest went to the Vernon
Center team, third place to The Polk
County team from Crookston, and
fourth place to the Hennepin County
team. The fifth place was taken By
team of boys from Chokio.
The Lamberton girls not only rep
resented their county at this fair,
but were the representative team of
Southern Minnesota, having won in
a competitive test with other teams
Of this section some time ago. They
won their first honors as a team by
winning in the Redwood County con-
test held at Redwood Falls last
spring.
Many complimentary things were
said of these girls who handled the
demonstration so skillfully, Miss Ger
trude Warren of Washington, ID. g.,
who was Judge of the demonstration
work at the state fair, stated en-
phatically that it was the best bread
baking demonstration she had ever
seen In all her experience. A similar
statement was made by the state club
leader of Nebraska, a man of wide
experience who spoke with authority
The team was accompanied to the
state fair by Miss Mary Sweeney, I'M
der whose teaching they attained their
skill and experience. Miss Sweeney
is not only a splendid teacher of the
art Of bread baking, but she is past
master in team training as the very
able and attractive demonstration Civ
en- by these girls testified. To Miss
Sweeney the girls owe much of their
success, a fact which they very grac-
iouslv acknowledge.
Redwood County has every reason
to be proud of the Representatives OF
its boys and girls clubs who attended
the fair. Thomas Hoskins Jr. of
North Redwood took the sweepstakes
on corn in tho boys class as is else
where mentioned, and William Scan
lon Of Belview took sixth place with
the pig he has been grooming for the
past few months.
These winners will all be seen at
the Redwood County fair which will
be held at the fair grounds Septem-
Der % to 26. The Lamberton team
will give demonstration at some
time which will be definitely announced
next week and the boys will show
their prize winning corn and pigs
with the other exhibitors of the vari-
Gus boys. and girls clubs. The coming
fair promises to be one of the most
interesting in the history Of the coun-
ty so far as the school children of the
county are concerned and every chile
in the county should insist upon being
there.

IlamIine ''U' Plans
It's New Quarters
PRESENT CAMPUS TO BE SOLD
AND NEW ONE PURCHASED,
is PRESENT PLAN

w. III. Gold of Redwood Falls, who
has been for many years a member OF
the Board of Directors of Hamline
University, reports that the present
university campus will be sold with
in short time and new and greater
Hamline built on the site at present
occupied by the Town and Country
Club of Saint Paul. This decision
was reached at recent meeting ct
the Board.
The Board of Education of Saint
Paul has offered to purchase the pres
ent Hamline site and buildings for the
sum Of $225, 100000 and will adapt the
campus to it's own purpose, which IN
cludes the providing of quarters for
the Hamline grade school, for high
school which has become necessity
for the Hamline community and for
new vocational school which will be
an important factor IN the education
OF St. Paul young people. The Ham
line library building will be used as
public library and the whole ar
rangement means very excellent pub
lie school facilities for the Hamline
people.
The present university buildings
are found too small for the require
ments made upon the institution and
the new site will allow for growth.
It will also make possible the erec-
ton of new and adequate buildings
of more modern type than those on
the present campus. The location is
an especially pleasant one on the Mis-
sissippi River and future students will
profit greatly by the change. Red
wood Falls has more Hamline alumni
among its residents than any other
town in the state according to It's
population and these men and women
are all keenly interested and appre-
ciative of the movement for new
and hipper Hamline.

President Argues
Against Changes
PRESIDENT AT OMAHA TERMS
PRESERVATION AN ASSENT
WITH Al BIG BUT

Omaha, Sept. 8.-Discussing for the
first time during his speaking tour
proposed reservations to the League
of Nations, President Wilson replied
in an address here today to argu-
ments advanced by those who favor
reservations.
"A reservation" said the president,
lis an assent with big but We
agree but.
The proposed reservation providing
for unconditional withdrawal from
membership, said the president, meant
that its sponsors wanted to sit near
the door with their hand on the knob, :
and If they saw anything they didn't
like, to "scuttle and run"
The league proviso that interna-
tional obligations must be fulfilled be-
fore withdrawal never would restrain
the United States, he said, because
this nation always would live up TO
its provisions. Those who wanted a
reservation to Article 10, Mr.. Wilson
continued, simply didn't want to come
IN now but wanted to be the late
joiners."

said he. " We must take It or Leave

General PerShing

COMMANDER OF AMERICAN
JEXPEDITIONARY FORCES

General John j. Pershing, home
from his victories IN France, Monday
took Greater New York by storm.
representative of every part of
the nation, gathered there, gave him
one of the greatest welcomes ever ac-
corded a returning soldier.
Hundreds Of thousands of persons,
afioat and ashore, shouted their en-
thusiasm. From the time his ship, the
transport Leviathan, arrived at Am
brose light until the general reached
his headquarters in a hotel, there was
an almost continuous din of cheering
and screech of whistles, interspersed
by the roar of saluting guns.
Pershing, greeted at Hoboken by
military and civil officials and pre-
sented with his commission as gen.
eraI, was forced to exert his famous
stoicism to the utmost to repress his
emotion.
Standing on the bridge of the huge
Leviathan, itself symbolic of victory
over Germany, the commander of the
greatest host ever gathered under the
Stars and Stripes, came slowly up the
bay today, world famed and hailed as
q conquering hero should be.
Hard of face, stern and impassive, a
splendid figure of soldier, he might
have been thinking as the familiar
landmarks of New York came into
view of the day q months ago when
he slipped secretly out of the harbor
on his way to France to prepare the
way for the hosts that were to follow.
Then he was only a major general
He came back Monday with four stars
on his shoulders-the fourth man to
wear them under the American flag.
The welcome given him would have
ouickened the pulse Of the hero Of q
Roman triumph. Fresh from the capi-
tails Of Allied Europe where honors
had been heaped upon him, it remained
for New York to show the first Amer
lean to lead an army across the At
lanfic that "Home, Sweet Home" has

Chief.
No foreign Threats could voice the
cheers, no alien hearts could pulse
the greeting that was General Perish

Editor Gazette,
Redwood Falls, MINI.
Dear Madam:
just returned last night from
the State Fair where / got my ton
sis sun-burned from watching the
airplanes disappear. Was surprised
and grieved to learn in the Gazette
that the perfectly good 500 that |
bet with and lost to DIR. Herman
Schmahl, you had shrunk to only ST..
Now the Gazette is a good newspaper
even if you did print just before cleo
ton that the court house could be
repaired for $500, and ! am sure
you underestimate Mr.. Schmahls
spending ability when you intimate
that the ST. will cover his expense
to the State Fair, so you better give
him and myself credit for the orig
inal amount Of the bet, 500.
Yours, truly,

The senate took up the suffrage
measure as soon as Governor
Burnquist finished speaking, and
within a few minutes the joint
resolution was rushed through.
The vote in the senate was 60
to 5.
Instantly the corridors, the
floors and the galleries of both
houses were in uproar. Hundreds
of women, cheering an laughing,
waved yellow and white ribbons
and flowers, while a band and an
orchestra in the lobby struck up
"Glory Halleluijah."
The only negative votes cast
against the suffrage measure in
the senate were recorded by Sena-
tors Handlan, Kuntz, Loonam,
McGarry and Van Hoven.
In the house, the only six mega
tive votes were cast by Bauck,
Christensen, Dilley, Nett, Nord-
: lin and Pattison.
