ate relatives.
Miss Hawkinson, a sister of the
groom was attended by Elmer Thor
stad, a brother of the bride.
Following the ceremony, a recep-
ton was held at the home of the
brides parents. After a brief we'd
ding trip Mr.. and Mrs. Hawkinson
will make their home on a farm near
Donnelly. The bride is a daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. o. Thorstad of Swan
Lake. The groom is the son of Julius
Hawkinson of Framnas.

Praise Work of Morris Organization
A boost for Morris and for the
work accomplished by the coopera-
ton of the Parents-Teachers' Asso-
citation, and J. J. Gaffney, movie
theatre owner, of this city, is
given in an article which appears in
the December number of Photo-Play.
The article encourages the move
ment for better films and gives two
or three illustrations of the work of
communities which have carried on
intelligent and successful crusades in
the interest of "clean movies" With
regard to the campaign in Morris, it
states:
"The Better Films Committee Of
the Parent-Teacher Association of
Morris, Mimi, under the leadership
of it's chairman, Mrs. F. A. Stever,
has begun it's work practical way.
Writes Mrs. Stever. We gave our
theatre manager list Of the pictures
wanted, and he has been getting
them as he is able. We hope to con-
tinue that plan. Many managers,
find, are not reading men, and they
buy according to the advertising. Our
men are willing to buy what we ask
for, so we will help settle our prob
lem by simply asking.
asking judiciously can only be
done, as Mrs. Stever and her CO.
workers are doing, by keeping in
formed in regard to the available
pictures"
1t should be source of great pride
and encouragement to know that local
efforts are being recognized in this
way by a magazine which occupies
a wide and important place in the
movie world.

Christmas Bazaar

The ladies of the Congregational
church announce the date of their
annual sale for Wednesday and
Thursday, Dec. 3rd and 4th at
Krueger's Drug Store. Much time
and thought has been expended in
planning this sale to prepare articles
which will meet the wants of all.
A fine line of fancy and other useful
articles have been made by the Ia
dies and a general invitation is ex-
tended for a liberal patronage.
Please remember this sale when de-
Gliding on Christmas gifts. A food
sale will be held as usual on the last
day Dec. 4th.

began the Christian life for the first
time, surrendering themselves to God
and His claims upon them, their tai
ents, life and service.
The tabernacle was almost entire
ly filled. 1t was a great audience,
many people coming for miles
around, some for IL and IS. Every
seat in the choir platform was oc-
cupied. The singing was immense.
The people are enjoying it. Rex J..
Moon is wonder as a musical direct
or. He has captured every member
of the chorus and now the audiences
are feeling the touch of his magical
voice, wooing and drawing, and al
so the touch of his magical hand, as
it swings to and fro, up and down,
timing, timing, timing, pausing for
the 'long" notes and rushing"
almost foaming (metaphorically) on
the short, "snappy" notes, and then
the sweep" of the "creecendos,"
such as in Master, the Tempest is
Raging" and Rejoice, Rejoice, Re-
joice." In order to thoroughly appre-
ciate the singing under the magical
direction of Rex L. Moon, one must
hear it. Verbum sapienti salts est.
And now another aid to the inter-
est and success of the campaign, "The
Booster Chorus" This is composed
of about 200 boys and girls between
Z and Is years. How they sing!
cit can't be beat" Be sure to hear
them on Saturday evening, Nov. %,
at 1880.
A large delegation from Willmar
was present. How the Willmar
folks appreciate the Aldrich party!
And Browns Valley and Beardsley,
too, have delegations every Sunday.
They, too, hold the party in high
esteem and much affection. They
are winners" wherever they go.
And they are winning in Morris!
So might it be!
Services in the tabernacle every
night and three times on Sunday

Fatal Auto Accident at Lowry

Cyrus Citizen.-One Of the saddest
accidents that has ever occurred in
this immediate vicinity was that
which happened last Saturday after
noon at Lowry, when Mrs. Robert W.
Bennett was instantly killed while
crossing the railroad track in her car
near the Lowry depot. According to
reports as to the details of the 'ac-
cident the car was running in low,
crossing the tracks, the side cur
tains were on, and the train 1913 COM

ing on the main track was neither
heard nor seen by Mrs. Bennett who
was driving her own car. Several
by-standers apparently tried to flag
both train and driver but were IN
able to make themselves understood.
The car was struck about in the
center causing the occupant to be
thrown out and carried for some dis
lance but was apparently instantly
killed.
