While there is a chance of a furry
in the price of flour in the east, deal
ers here say that the northwest has
never been selling in proportion to east
ern prices, where there was consider
able speculation. According to a gov
ernment ruling, millers are entitled to
add 20 cents a barrel to the price of
flour beginning May /. During the
winter while the east advanced the
price of flour So barrel the west mad
pushed the price up only 40 cents a
barrel. Hence no lower flour prices
may be expected in the northwest and
there is a chance of an advance of five
cents sack.

URGE CIVILIAN ORDER
LOREN B. ROBERTS, FORMER
RESIDENT, ADDRESSES COL
LEGE WOMEN'S CLUB.

Minneapolis Tribune (28): Forma,
ton of a civilian order to be known
as the Order of the Golden Star, was
suggested by Lorin B. Roberts as one
Of the best means of fostering a truly
American spirit among all classes in
the country today. Mr.. Roberts, repre-
senting the American Legion, was ad-
dressing members of the College Won
en- g club at their initial meeting yes
terday afternoon in the headquarters
in the Meyers Arcade.
Membership in such an order Mr..
Roberts said might consist of all those
who had lost blood relatives in the
World war. ''The feeling of COM
mon bond of sorrow would bring to-
gether as no other bond could the for
egn born, the American born, the rich
and the poor,' he said.
at is in the promotion of American
ization that women, especially college
women, can help in the work of the
American, Legion,' said Mr.. Roberts.
"What the foreigner within our gates
needs more than anything else is feel
ing of human comradeship with those
who are native to tie country which
they have adopted. The American has
held himself too aloof in his attempts to
aid the immigrant in becoming full
fledged American citizen.'
"The American wolnan,' Mr.. Rob.
erts said, "caA be Of service in this
cause by simply Offering the hospitali-
ty of her home to the men and women
Of the immigrant class. If the Ameri'
can husband brings home to dinner a
man who knows nothing of the finer
distinctions Of American society, the
American wife must be willing to co.
operate in making th4 gu"e+ fc~' that
she is willing to Wels4me him. He un
derstands the feelings when p-ompt
such actions and will be more willing
to abide, by the laws Of an America
which stands for such feeling Of fell
lowship,' he said.

W0MAN'S GUILD MET
REV. GRUENWALD SPEAKS AT
QUARTERLY MEETING-OF-
FICERS ELECTED,

The Woman's Guild held its quarter
ly meeting Tuesday afternoon at the
Maud Moon Wcycrhaeuser hall. The
meeting was opened with the singing
of America.'
Rev. Charles Gruenwald gave very
interesting talk on "Loyalty," point
ing out how loyalty in its different
forms should be practiced. He named
three kinds of loyalty, namely loyalty
to God; loyalty to the noblcst nation
on earth, that over wnich the Stars
and Stripes float; and loyalty to one S
self and to ones friends. He defined
true loyalty as an unsclfsh devotion
and unending love, aCding that with
this world ~dollarmad and with the
craze for riches that now exists, the
better self is turned into selfish self
which in turn destroys loyalty; hap
pincss lies within ones self, not out
side.
Joseph Mitchell next favored the
audience with two pleasing clarinet
solos. An amusing part of the program
was an orchestra called "The Kitchen
Symphony composed of l6 little girls.
half of whom were in blackface. They
were led by Genevieve Wetzel.
Following the program a business ses-
sion was held. It was decided to give
$50 to the support OF the visiting
nurse.
Election of officers for the ensuing
year resulted rs follows:
Presidcnt-Mrs. p. S. Randall.
Vice President L. 0. Vessel.
Treasurer-Mrs. H. H. Tanner.
Dirertors-Mrs. F. klebcr and Mrs.
A. F. Kosloskv.

CAMPAIGN FOR 5000 MEMBERS IN
MORRISON COUNTY BEGINS
SUNDAY,

Next Sunday the third Red Cross roll
call commences in Morrison county. The
membership campaign will continue for
nine days, ending on November IL, Ar
mistice Day, it the quota has by that
time been reached. :1:ne quota Of the
county is 5000 memberships and 25O
subscriptions to the Red Cross maya
zine.
DIR. E. w. Kaliher is county chairman
for the drive and Clarence Raymond is
chairman for the city of Little Falls.
The various Red Cross branches
throughout the county are going to
handle the campaign in their commun-
tiles. They have already been provid-
ed with supplies and in some cases work
has already been commenced.
In Little Falls the American Legion
members are going TO solicit member:
ships, the local post having volunteered
its services. Members have been as
signed to the various streets Of the city
and will make house tc house canvass
on Sunday afternoon, beginning at 2
o'clock. They hope to wind up the
drive in this city that day.
Chairman Raymond states that he
will be at the city hall at 1870 Sunday
afternoon to distribute supplies to the
solicitors for this city. Those who are
to solicit outlying districts will be tax
en- there in automobiles.
The Red Cross does not anticipate the
need of drive for funds this year and
the people will only be calico upon to
renew their membership or to join if
they are not already members. The
membership fee in either case is 81 for
year. The subscription price of the
magazine is ST. per year. This is the
last year that subscriptions to the mag
azine are to be solicited in this manner
as it will be elf-sustainiug and will af-
ter January l be sold through news
stands.
The peace time program of home SER
vice work which the Red Cross proposes
to carry out and in fact is already 60
ing on, deserves the support Of every
one, so have your dollar ready when
the solicitor calls upon you. Ono in
stance of the assistance given by the
Red Cross has just been brought out in
our own county. A young man living
in this county was disabled while fight
ing the forest fires in the northern part
Of the state last fall. Efforts to get as
sistance from the state failed. The
case finally came to the attention Of a
Rcd Gross branch in this county and
arrangements have been made to send
this young man to school and fit him for
work that he can do.
