GLACIER TRAIL WILL
BE MARKED In SPRING
Business Men of Morris Raise $3.50
To Help Meet Expense of the
Work

The work of marking the Glacier
trail thru Minnesota will begin in
the spring and will be done under
state supervision. Money for this
expense is being raised by the diff
erent towns thru which the trail
passes.
The county of Stevens was asked
to raise 1910 and A. o. Overstad of
Hancock was the county director to
oversee this work. He in turn ap-
pointed J. H. Adams of Morris to
raise the money here and Mr.. Adams
solicited the business men on Mon
day and Tuesday and raised the
amount apportioned to Morris, which
was $3.50. He sent draft to Mr..
Overstad for this amount on Wednes-
day.
The village of Hancock was asked
to raise $50 and they have already
done so. Donnelly is asked for $50
and it is understood that they will
raise their share.
The trail will be plainly marked,
having a sign on every other tele-
phone post and special signs at rail-
road crossings and turns.

SMALL ATTENDANCE AT
COUNTY CONVENTION
Sunday School Convention at Han
cock Last Sunday Spoiled by
Weather Conditions

The annual Sunday School Con-
vention for Stevens county was held
at Hancock Saturday evening and
Sunday last, but owing to the bad
roads and weather it was impossible
for anyone to attend except people
living right in the village. Several
Morris people we're on the program
and all sorts of attempts were made
to get to Hancock, but all had to be
given up. Automobiles were out Of
the question and not even hand
car on the railroad could be secured.
A man was found who had speeder
on the N. P, but he had not author
ity to use it on the Great Northern
tracks, so it was useless.
Rev. Lee Aldrich and Mr.. Rex
Moon were on the program for Sun
day afternoon and the people Of Han
cock we're disappointed at not being
able to hear them. Mr.. Aldrich was
to have given an address and he and
Mr. Moon intended to give several
musical numbers. DR.. G. L. Powell
was the principle speaker for the
morning exercises, and Rev. Symons
of Morris, was to have spoken in the
evening. R. M. Adams was also on
the program for Sunday evening -,
On account of the small represent
alton from the county it was voted 10
let the old officers hold over for an
other year. They were as follows:
Rev. F. Stowe Of Hancock, persident'
L. ]. Schlattman of Alberta, wee
president; Miss Eva Blackburn 0.
Hancock, secretary; VIM. Hope Oh
Morris, Treasurer.

SEALS WILL PROVIDE
COUNTY SCHOOL NURSE
Public Health Association Wants
Nurse in Stevens County for
I Six Months

The Stevens County Public Health
Association is planning to hire a
nurse for the first six months of
19203to promote health work in the
schools of the county.
Dr. Sundwall, Professor of Health
and Hygiene at the University of
Minnesota, in his address before the
Parents and Teachers Association at
the High School on Monday evening
strongly emphasized the need for a
county school nurse. He stated that
during the war one-third of the
young men between 21 and 81 years
of age had to be rejected because of
serious physical defects, and con-
siderable number of those who were
accepted we're fit only for limited
service. The same is true of the boys
and girls in school said DR.. Sund-

county map for the use of the
churches. County Supt. of Schools
Roberts will assist by locating the
schools and Sunday schools and Sc
curing information about the coun-
ty institutions.
The community schedule will out
line the boundaries of communities in
the county on the basis of the trade
centers, showing population, roads,
social leadership, and community Or
ganizations and activities and form
ing a basis for better community
work and cooperation.
The church schedules will out
line the church parish and make in
quiry as to the location, equipment,
finance, membership; religious edu-
cation, church organizations and the
pastors of the churches and for a
basis of plan of religious coopera-
tion looking to some adequate religi-
GUS service for every community in
the county.
A similar survey is being made in
every county in the United States at
this time and it is expected that Stew
ems county will measure up in COM
parison with all others in the state.
She has failed in no other welfare or
reconstruction work and the leaders
are confident she will make good in
this. -+GsSsa
All the expenses of the survey are
being met by the movement and the
pastors and leaders of the county
are volunteering their services as
their contributioHt to the cause.
Surveys are now we'll under way

BIG CORN SHOW AT
WEST CENTRAL SCHOOL
First Annual Students Corn Show to
Be Held Promises to Be
Interesting

The first annual student corn show
which is to be held at the West Cen
tral School of Agriculture Saturday,
Nov. 18th, promises to be one of the
most interesting affairs of its kind
ever held in this part of Minnesota.
Never before has the season for corn
been more favorable for the correct
development and maturing of this
crop. AS a consequence there is an
abundance of corn throughout the
west central part of the state.
This corn show has been planned
in the interests of a good seed cam
paign which is being impressed on
all the students. AS the corn which
will be exhibited comes from every
section Of this part of the state very
good comparison may be obtained of
what is being done along the line of
corn growing.
There is quite a bit of rivalry ex-
listing between the various classes at
school to see which will carry off the
honors. Many of the older boys who
have had much more work along the
line of corn growing than the fresh
men, seem to feel that the advan-
tage is theirs, but from the looks the
exhibits that are here already, one
cannot help feeling that the upper
class men will have quite little COM
petition.
Mr.. Chas. Brown of the University
Of Minnesota will be out to judge the
exhibits. He is well-known through
out the state as an authority on corn,
not only as judge but as an actual
grower Of good strain of corn.
There will be short program dur
ing the regular morning assembly
period, consisting of music by the
school orchestra and an address by
Mr.. Brown. The winners in the con,
test may be announced at this time
The freshmen class in corn grow.
ing who are managing the show, are
very desirous that a goodly number
of townspeople and farmers Will come
out to see the exhibits and a specia
invitation is extended to all for thii
purpose. The exhibits will be ope1
to the public Saturday afternoon.

NEW RULINGS MADE
FOR REINSTATEMENT
More Liberal Conditions for Rein
stating of Lapsed or Cancelled
Insurance

A series of decisions issued by the
Director of the Form of War Risk
Insurance with the approval of the
Secretary of the Treasury provides
more liberal conditions for rein
statement or lapsed or cancelled in
surance.
The provisions of Treasury Deci-
sion No. At, allowing eighteen
months from the date of discharge
for reinstatement upon payment Of
only two months premiums on the
amount of insurance to be rein
stated, are retained. That decision
is liberated, however, by a new pro-
vision that men out of the servcie are
permitted to, reinstate by merely
paying the two months premiums
without making a statement as to
health at any time within three cal
endar months following the month
of discharge.
After the three months following
the date of discharge have elapsed,
statement from the applicant to
the effect that he is in as good health
as at the date of discharge or at the
expiration of the grace period, which
ever is the later date, will be required
together with a written application
for reinstatement and the tender Of
two months premiums on the amount
of insurance he wishes to reinstate.
In order to give all former service
men whose insurance has l&psed or
been cancelled. fair chance to rein
state their insurance, including men
who have been out of the service
eighteen months or more, and who
are therefore barred from reinstate-
ment under the former ruling, a spe-
cial blanket ruling is made which
allows all ex-service men to rein
state their insurance before December
81, 1919, provided that each appli
cant is in as good health as at date
of discharge or at expiration of the
grace period, whichever is the later
date, and so states in his applica-
tion. OF course it is necessary that
he tender the two months premiums
on the amount of insurance he wishes
to reinstate.
Service men who reinstated their
insurance by payment of all back
premiums prior to July rs, 1919,
when the decision requiring payment
of only two months premiums went
into effect, upon written application
to the Bureau may have any prem
iums paid in excess of two applied
toward the payment of future prem
iums. For example, if after policy
had lapsed for six months, man
reinstated and paid six months
premiums instead Of two, he may Sc
cure credit for four months prem
iums.
The provisions for reinstatement
do not protect man until he actual
ly reinstates. If he waits he may be
in as good health as he was at the
time of discharge and consequently
may not be able to secure reinstate-
ment.

HEALTH WEAKNESS
DISCLOSED BY WAR
Significance of Public Health Work
Discussed by DR.. Sundwall, of
the University

"The late war was the first health
census which the nation has taken
since the Civil war, and disclosed that
over one-third we're disqualified" de-
clared DIR. John Sundwall, Professor
of Hygiene and Director of the Uni
evrsity Health Service, at his ad-
dress before the Parents and Teach
ers' Association at the High School on
Monday evening.
All should therefore be interested
in public health work both for the
purpose Of promoting the health of
the nation and being personally en-
abled to reach a vigorous old age,
and also to help stamp out such pre-
ventable diseases as tuberculosis,
pneumonia, heart disease, cancer, etc.
Men engaged in public health work
hope to Danish the loss from pre-
ventable diseases, and the work is be-
ing done along four lines, child well
fare, school hygiene, conservation of
adults and mental hygiene.
Of children, one out Of five is
doomed to die before it attains the age
of one year, and in large cities half
Of them die before five years. The
majority die from intestinal trou-
bles, yet where especial attention is
given to children's food, as at Fran
ingham, Mass, not one death has
been due to nutritional disturbances
The United States stands 18th In in
fant mortality:
School hygiene discloses that 2O.-
900 children will die from diphtheria,
and q SIMILAR number each from
scarlet fever, measles and whoopine
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1919-11-14

cough, and thousands from tuber-
culosis. There is absolutely no ex-
cuse today for a person dying from
typhoid or diphtheria, such has been
the progress in prevention. Lack of
personal contact with an infected
person is the great thing in preven-
tive medicine today. This shows
that public health has become a per-
sonal matter. There is no need of
closing the schools in an epidemic.
The case was cited Of typhoid car
rier who was responsible for 412
deaths.
The doctor predicted that in few
years every school of the size of the
Morris school will have well-found-
ed health service, and he advised that
the school make application early for
nurse.
There are six or seven million
school children who are defective, as
the result of carelessness and neg
lect. If we own an auto we keep
it repaired in time, yet degeneration
diseases in this country are increas-
ing. Out of 100 men, not more than
GA will reach 65 years, and of these,
one will be wealthy, four independ-
ent, five working for wages and 54
dependent.
On account of the inclement wealth
er, there was not a large attendance
at the lecture, but all who heard DR..
Sundwall felt we'll repaid for brav-
ing the storm. DR.. Sundwall was OBJ
tained for this lecture thru the Stev-
ems County Health Association.
After the lecture, the committee
served frappe and waters.

MANY VISITORS AT
AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL
Home Economics Visitors Day Last
Saturday Brought Many From
Surrounding Towns

The Home Economics Visitors day
at the West Central School of Agri-
culture was great success in spite
of poor weather and bad roads.
There we're large number of guests
present from Morris and vicinity.
Among the towns represented were
Herman, Hoffman, Chokio, Starbuck,
Willmar, Barry and Donnelly.
The guests were shown the different
departments of the institution, all of
which we're following their usual
program for the day. The work that
the students were doing commanded
the enthusiastic interest of all who
had the opportunity of visiting the
school.
The exhibits in the English de-
partment illustrated the interesting
and original type of work which is
being done by the students in that
department. In the dining room of
the domestic science department a
table was laid demonstrating three
course dinner. Each course was
shown on a separate table. The
girls of the Junior class served coffee
and sandwiches in the laboratory.
In the rooms Of the domestic art
department we're displayed the gar
ments and other articles of needle
work which the girls of this depart
ment had made. 7
In the business department were
displayed samples of penmanship and
exercises in shorthand and typewfit-
ing.
All of the visitors were very much
interested in the hospital which has
just been completed and equipped.
During the afternoon number of
girls demonstrated the use of the
equipment in the gymnasium.
After the guests had visited the
various departments, they were con-
Quoted to the chapel where the fol-
lowing program was given:

Halloween at Hutchinson

People of the city of Hutchinson
are complaining of the way in which
Halloween was celebrated there.
Unlike Morris, where no damage was
done and only a few harmful pranks
played, in Hutchinson there was over
a $1,000 worth of damage done and
many buildings of value we're des-
troyed.
