Rail-.

The Sandstone High School
basket ball quint journeyed to
Pine City last Friday evening
and defeated the high school
boys of that village in a very
close and exciting game, the final
score being IA to ia regular
university score. Holiday of
Rush City was the referee. Sand
stone citizens are proud of their
basket ball tossers and their able
manager, Supt. Schwartz. They
have won every game so far this
season. Their next game is with
Rush City at Sandstone, Satur-
day evening, Jan. Is.

The united effort and team

too many varieties of diseased

Bruno WOOdmen and Royal
NeighbOrs Have Jolly
Time.

Last Saturday evening. Jan. Is,
the Modern Woodmen of Ameri-
ca and the Royal Neighbors of
America held a joint installa-
tion of officers for the coming
year, after which a program was
rendered by each lodge, followed
by an oyster supper. There was
a large attendance of members
and their families and few in
vited guests.
There was considerable inter-
est taken in the programs. as it
was in the nature of a contest
between the two lodges. The
Royal Neighbors proposed to the
Modern Woodmen that each rem
der a program, the losing lodge
to furnish another supper for
both lodges at a later date.
Three judges were appointed,
who were members Of neither
lodge, that the decision might
be unbiased.
The Royal Neighbors rendered
their splendid program first,
composed of songs, drills recita-
tions, ETC., by children of the
members. This was followed by
the program prepared by the
Woodmen, which was somewhat
Of a surprise to the Royal Neigh
bors, being rendered, with three
exceptions, by members of the
lodge. 1t consisted Of recitations
and orations, songs and a playlet
entitled "Courtship Under Diff
ficulties." The serious side of
life was lost sight Of during the
time required for delivering this
program. and many people had
several good laughs at the levity
of the stronger sex. However,
the outcome was that the deci-
sion Of the judges was unani-
nous in favor of the Modern
4
Woodmen. They are therefore
looking forward with pleasure to
the next supper, and doubtless
would be willing to compete
with the Royal Neighbors on the
same terms again.
Following is a list Of officers
installed:

Marketing Cream.

Some think that two or three
local buyers make a better
market than one. Is that true of
the Cooperative creamery? Is it
true with local stations owned
by outside buyers?
Often when two or three out
side buyers operate in the same
territory they cooperate on the
price they pay so it is practically
the same as one man. If they do
not do this they do the opposite
and take any grade or quality Of
produce that comes. thus lower
ing the production and standard
of that community.
The cooperative creamery
owned by the producers who are
interested in the quality, price
and reputation of their products
places their products on the mar
ket for just the bare cost Of
manufacture and transportation
to the large consuming centers
thus cutting out one or two
middle men and maintaining the
quality and reputation of their
product. A large volume Of
butter marketing in this way re-
duces the cost per pound for rum
ming expenses. leaving the larg.
est possible return to the
farmers, and that is what he
wants.
In addition to this he has con.
troll of the quality and reputa-
tion of his products, and in the
future that alone will mean
thousands of dollars to the
territory tributary to the Pine
City creamery. providing the
farmers in the territory patron.
ize their own organization and
develop team work and com,
munity pride that will make
their creamery second to none in
the state.
We understand it is due to
this kind Of team work that
Bridgeman Russell decided to
quit the game at Pine City since
their system of handling the
cream and the quality they
accepted to get business made it
impossible for them to meet the
competition of the economical
system Of the farmers coopera-
tive creamery. The patrons and
management of the farmers CO.
operative creamery at Pine City
are to be congratulated. The
village Of Pine City should be
congratulated upon being sur.
rounded by that class Of dairy
farmers.

Buildings Planned.
Danish societies and fraternal
lodges in New York and Phila-
delphia are once more discussing
the plans for the erection of
their own buildings in some CEN
ter of each of the two
cities. Shares are being sold for
the building planned in New
York, but as the city is SO i'm
mense, and as the Danes live
scattered all over the five bor-
oughs, it seems difficult to agree
on the place where the building
should be situated.
Norway Protests.
The Norwegian government
has lodged with the American
state department a protest
against enactment of the Jones
bill for the deportation of Nor
wegian declarants who withdrew
their application for citizenship
in order to avoid being drafted
into the American army. The
state department, in forwarding
the protest to congress, ex-
pressed the wish that the bill be
not carried thru as it might lead
to embarrassment between the
government Of the United States
and friendly European govern
ments.
Swetles Worry.
| A Stockholm dispatch carries
the information that the breach
between the Swedish govern
ment and the Russian Bolshevik
government may result in Swe-
dish capital and property in Rus
sia being confiscated. 1t is taken
for granted that there is now no
way of checking up the Russian
methods in regard to the prop
erty Of foreigners.
| Danes in Paris.
A delegation of Danes from
Slesvig-Holsten has arrived in
Paris to obtain hearing before
the peace conference in regard
to claims for the restoration of
their native province to Den
mark. The Copenhagen govern
ment has expressed dissatisfac-
tion with this move and has
taken pains to impress upon
Powers now gathered around the
green table that the delegation
has no official standing, and that
Denmark officially has nothing
to do with it's members. On the
surface of it, it looks as though
their ardency has carried these
delegates a bit farther than may
be good for the cause they want
to serve.
