WILLMAR SCHOOLS,

The following buildings have reached
the hundred per cent mark in the Jun
ior Red Cross Drive: High School build
ing: Central building; Industrial build
ing; Garfield building; Lafayette build
ing. The Lincoln and Library build
ings are still short
The work on the new building has
been very much delayed Of late, because
of bad weather and shortage of mater
ial 1t is expected that the roof will be
completed this or next week. We are
all anxious to see the work rushed as
much as possible in order that the new
heating plant may be completed for use
before Christmas. The present method
Of heating the high school is entirely
inadequate and we have been forced to
close school several times the past week.
An attempt has been made to secure
temporary teaching quarters elsewhere
It is likely that classes will recite dur
ing the coolest weather in the court
house, in the basement of the Masonic
Hall and possibly in the basement of
the Synod church. We are very glad
to have this spell of warm weather as
teaching outside of the high school
building is very uncomfortable and un-
satisfactory.
The Minnesota Public Health Associa-
tion will conduct it's annual sale of
Red Cross Seals under the auspices of
the American Red Cross Society. The
Seal Sale was dropped during the war.
Money obtained from Seal sales is used
in tuberculosis work throughout the
state. Kandiyohi County has a certain
quota of money to raise. If we raise
this amount we will get the use of SO
per cent for Home Health Work. The
Seal Sale begins December 1st and con-
tinues until January 1st. Everyone
should buy these seals for use on their
Christmas packages.
Mr.. Ernest Hamann, the janitor at
the Lincoln School, has resigned be-
cause of i'll health. His place has been
taken by Mr.. K. A. Solberg.
Programs were given throughout the
school system on armiStice day. Special
features at the Central building were
talks to the eighth grade by Judge Gill
bert and to the high school by Rev
Oehler. Their talks were excellent
ers and pupils. We hope that other men
will come up to talk to the pupils at
some future time.
On November 18th the Willmar High
School football team met their Water
loo at Montevideo. Montevideo has an
unusual strong team and it is doubtful
that our boys could have defeated them
had everything been in their favor
The game was played in the midst of
snow storm on a field covered with
four inches of snow. The temperature
stood at zero or below. Our boys were
dressed for summer weather and grew
so cold between halves that they were
unable to do anything during the Sec
ond half. Montevideo defeated Little
Falls on Saturday of last week and so
now holds the championship Of Central
Minnesota. The boys do not feel badly
over the loss Of this game for Willmar
has had an unusually successful season
this year. We have seven games out of
eight The following is a summary of
the games played and the scores.

Japan is considered, because of its
delightful climate, the playground of
the East. Residents of other coun-
tries of the far East Indies, the Phil

flock to Japan in the hot summer
months to enjoy it's mountain resorts.
Owing to the large tourist business
some of these resorts present all the

Kaiser Bill

We find in exchange the report of adj
dress delivered by Santa Fe, New Mexico, man,
who has been following up very closely the actions
of Kaiser Bill and his people for the last few years.
He finds the kaiser and his "henchmen" who sur
rounded him and were his close advisers. a di-
rect picture of Nebuchadnezzer and his "henchmen'
in the days of Daniel the Prophet.
Nebuchadnezzar was surrounded by clique of
ungodly degenerates who catered to his pride and
jollied him up in his boastings not one of them ap
parently disagreed with him in his wild boastngs,
He was at heart really good which was
tirely different from the kaiser but these evil
IDENTIFY worked on his vanity and he fell for the bait.
He then had dream which troubled him very
much, he of course for his clique of advisers
aud comforters they all confused at the turn of
affairs and had to give ii up He then sent for Dan
iel the Prophet. who told him at once that pride
had undone him and he was about to be deposed
til he would humble himself. He lost his reason,
or in other words became insane and wandered for
seven years like the cattle of the field. when his
son returned to him and he prostrated his body and
soul before God. For seven years he had forgotten
who he was. and that knowledge daWned upon
him he got scared and repented. 1t is very evident
that his whole clique became insane at the time
for as his is restored, they appear upon the
stage again with him.
study of the picture is somewhat interesting.
The kaiser is surely going through similar process,
but will he ever wake up and acknowledge his past
wrong doings; or will the German people wake up
That remains be seen; it is very doubtful that they
ever will for the die to be cast the insanity
appears to be permanent, the Germany of the past.
