OUR THANKS

LINDEN is to be congratulated on
the decision of the retiring public
officials to become candidates for re-
election. Never has Lynden had a
more harmonious administration, or
been better governed.
1t is no small sacrifice to accept a
public office in a city of the size of
LINDEN, where considerable demands
are made on the time of the council
men. The only pay they receive is
the thanks of the community, and
they have that a thousandfold.

TO OPEN TUESDAY
The New Picture Show House To
Present Annette Kellermann

The New P1cture SnOW oOaSe IO
Present Annette Kellermann
kingstree has been without a
moving picture show since the
Uwana went out of commission by
fire.
Mr.. ]. C. Thompson realizing the
need of moving picture show house
in the town busted himself in reeS-
tablishing the amusement. He has
had fitted out for the purpose a
large store room on West Academy
street where the first show will be
given next Tuesday night April l,
featuring Annette Kellermann, the
million dollar beauty, or the worlds
most perfect specimen of woman
hood.
Mr.. Thompson has gone to consid-
cradle expense in placing a moving
picture show at the pleasure OF our
citizens and it is only fair to pat
ronize the place in such way as VIII
at least cover rent and running eX-
penses. We know that heretofore
this has barely, if at all been the
case.
The new house is so arranged
that no one need be afraid of fire.
Ample exits are provided and the
machine and operating booth is 10
Gated at the rear of the auditorium
Mr.. H. C.. Crawford, an eXperlenc-
ed moving picture man, will be IN
charge. This fact alone practically
insures safety and satisfaction to
patrons.

Influenza
Chicago, March 26.-More than a
million members Of the Modern
Woodmen of America, the largest
fraternal insurance organization in
the country, had their rates increaS-
ed today to meet the abnormal death
losses resulting from the influenza
epidemic, which caused a reduction
in the beneficiary fund of the order
from s12,OO0,000 to 100000.
On the present membership the
increase is a fiat advance of so per
cent and all new members joining
hereafter will have to pay material
ly increased rates.
Even this increase is said to be not
strictly actuarial adesuate rate,
but it was as far as the membership
could be induced to go at this time.
The action was taken today at
special meeting of the head camp of
the order, after three days debate.
