in the holy bonds of matrimony Mrs.
Emma M. Matteson and Mr.. Harry s..
McLaggen. Both bride and groom

Mr.. McLaggen was i'll at the time
and was confined to his bed. The

for Saturday and the groom decided
that sick or we'll it must go through.
Mrs. McLaggen is a trained nurse
and so the groom is in safe hands.
He has not been in robust health for
several months and was compelled to
take several weeks off work. 1t was
a very cold and stormy day when he
returned to his duties as conductor
on the Northern Pacific passenger
train running between here and the
Twin Cities and he took fresh cold
which laid him aside again. He is on
the mend and ere many days will be
able to be out again and greet his
friends, who all wish him and his
bride many happy years of married
life.

CHANGED THIS YEAR
Bass Season Opens June Is; Closed
Season OH Prairie Chicken for
Three Years

The hook and line fishing season
opened yesterday for all members of
the f1nny tribe excepting black and
gray or oswego bass. A new law

as heretofore. Fishermen can now
catch pike, crappies, sock bass, sun

Zones which divided the state in
to two sections, have been eliminat-
ed. The angling season for many
varieties will open on May 1. The
trout season opened on April Is,
which now applies to the entire
state.
An important change in the game
birds laws is a closed period on
prairie chickens until Sept. 16, 1922.
The partridge law was left the same
with the season to open in 1920.
will be allowed every other
season. The duck season, as usual,
will open on Sept. 16, but will close
on Dec. 81, giving the gunners 31a
months of sport.
Scarcity of pickerel in many of the
lakes brought about a closed spear
ing season. 1t is now unlawful to
spear pickerel in March and April.

CITED FOR GALLANTRY
AFTER GIVING LIFE
Navy Boy Seriously Injured Thinks
More of Others Than of
Self

The Minneapolis Journal of April
Is contained the following interest
ing information about Buddy
Lindgren, a brother of Mrs. e. w.
Nobbs of Morris, who gave up his life
in the performance of duty. The
young man visited Morris last sum-
mer and will be remembered by sew
eTal people. Before enlisting in the
navy he made his home with Mr.. and
Mrs. E. w. Nobbs for several years.
vladimir Lindgren, 1911 Irving
Ave. N, is one of the few navy men
to be cited for gallantry. Accord
ing to reports received here today
Lindgren has been cited for gallan-
try upon recommendation of the COM
mander of the U. S. S. Maui, of the
cruiser and transport service.
''The following report of the ac-
tion of Lindgren was given by Maui
commander to the commander of the
cruiser and transport force, United
States Atlantic fleet: 'I desire to
call attention to the gallant conduct
of Vladimer Lindgren, late seaman,
U. S. Navy, at the time of the dis
aster on board the U. S. S. Maui,
Feb. 10, 1919. On that date an un-
usually heavy sea swept over the
forward deck, washing overheard
two sailors and fatally injuring Lieu
tenant James Marimon, U. S. N. r. F.
and Lindgren. Lindgren was found
lying on the forward deck with COM
pound fractures of both legs, when
the stretcher bearers attempted to
pick him up he insisted upon them
picking up the wounded officer first.
Such show of gallantry in a lad Of
10 years of age deserves commenda-
tion and I have indorsed his service
record as follows: Commended for
bravery and gallant conduct when in
jured in line of duty" Albert
Greaves."
"Lindgren enlisted in Minneapolis
April 29, 1917, one of the first to go
after America entered the war. After
several months at the Great Lakes
Training station, he was assigned to
the cruiser and transport service, of
the Atlantic fleet"

CAPTAIN FITZGERALD
BACK FROM OVERSEAS
Had Varied Experiences Including
Service at the Front During
the San Mihiel Drive

Captain E. T. Fitzgerald is home
again after having served his coun-
try over year and half in the med
many of the largest hospitals in this
country and France and up to the
first line trenches, a service of which
he may we'll be proud
He left Morris August 13, 1917,
for Fort Riley, where he spent three
months in the Officers Training
Camp. From there he went to Camp
Travis, where after four months with
an Ambulance Company, he was as
signed to the 36Oth Infantry and de-
tailed to the department laboratory
on special "hookworm'' service,
where for six weeks he was associ-
ated with the best specialists in the
world on this disease.
Leaving Camp Travis, he sailed
for Europe, June IA, 1918, landing
at Southampton, whence he went
to La Harve and to the training area
in the Haute Marine department. On
August IL, he went to the front in
the Toul sector and stayed there over
month. AS a person first goes to
the front and sees the camouf1aged
roads, the wrecked villages and the
torn up roads, the observation bal
looms and the flares, and the bursting
shells, one is sure that every shell
that bursts anywhere in the vicinity
Ioc h ;c, hut
has been at the front for a little
time, he begins to think that every
shell is for the other fellow according
to the captain.
DR.. Fitzgerald went thru the San
Mihiel drive, his outfit being sta
toned at the right pivot along the
MOselle river facing Metz on the
Metz road. On account of accidents
to other medical officers, DR.. Fitz-
gerald had to take care of three bat
tallions and special troops during the
drive, and he worked for SO hours
without sleep, treating $50 men
variously wounded and gassed. He
himself was slightly gassed and when
a large shell exploded just outside
his dugout his ear drum was frac-
tured, and he was listed among the
wounded. Captain Fitzgerald is not
wearing wound stripe, however, as
he says he saw too many other men
who were "really wounded"
He was sent to the hospital at
Beaune for three weeks and then as
signed to duty with the Classifica-
tion Board of the Fourth Army Corps
at Toul, where he remained until
after the armistice. After that he
went to Rimaucount, one of the large
hospital centers Of France, where he
had unusual opportunities for OBJ
servation and study. He was then
assigned to the 85th division to go
home, and went back to Toul, and on
the way took in Nancy and several
more of the large cities of France.
Thence he went to LIE Mans and to
Brest, and came home on the Livi-
athan, which on that trip carried
over $4,000 people, the largest num-
ber of persons ever carried across
the sea in one ship. After landing
at Hoboken, he spent few days at
Camp Upton and Camp Dodge, and
was then discharged.

New Feedstuffs Law Protects Farmers


The new feedstuffs law passed by
the legislature, which has just ad
journed, is designed to stop the sale
of feedstuffs made by mixing elevator
dust, oat hulls, chaff or ground corn
cobs with corn, bran or oilmeal, and
then adding cheap molasses to cover
up the ingredients and improve their
taste. 1t provides for correct label
ing, for the creation Of a laboratory
to test feedstuffs, and for the punish
men of those who violate the law.
The bill was drafted by the animal
husbandry and the chemistry special
lists at University Farm in coopera-
tion with the state dairy and food
commission.

This has been a most inconvenient
time for committees to work in the
townships, because when the weather
was poor, the roads have made it i'm
possible to get around and when the
weather was good every moment has
been needed for farm work.
Chairman Hancock expects that
much work will be done in the dis
tricts that are behind in order to
bring them up during the next week.

Where are the girls that used to smile
And the rides ! used to get.
And where is the crowd that was very
proud
To pass me a cigarette?
Time was I danced with maidens fair
And captured their hearts by storm,
But I've lost my pull with the beautiful
Since quitting the uniform.
I've sunk my shoes into Turkish rugs.
That only the rich can own,
At tables fine I've been asked to dine
In the heart Of the social zone.
In the cushions deep of a limousine
l have rested my manly form.
But i've lost my graft with the tony
craft
Since quitting the uniform.
I've been king on the ball room floor
An ace in the social whirl
/ could show my face in any old place,
And never a lip would curl.
I could walk right up to a rich mans
And be sure Of a welcome warm.
But I've changed a lot and they know
me not.
Since quitting the uniform.
Now I walk downtown and the autos
pass
And nobody says get in"
And the girls are shy when they pass
me by,
| And they give me the tilted chin.
And nobody knows and nobody cares,
Whether l eat or how,
must buy my chuck for I'm out Of
luck.
I'm wearing the civvies now.
