HAWlCK CREAMERY
BURNS TO GROUND
Almost Total Los. As Result Of
Fire Last Tuesday
Morning

The Hawick Cooperative
Creamery was totally Destroy
ed by fire Tuesday morning,
Nov. 23rd. Cause was attribu-
ted to an overheated stove pipe
The only equipment saved
was a new cream ripener and
a new churn. A large amount
of butter was also safely taken
out of the burning structure.
The insurance protecting the
building amounts to about
$4,000 but only partially COW
:. rs the great loss.
A meeting was held a few
days later which was attended
by those interested in the con-
struction of a new creamery.
1T shares were sold for a new
building which will be built a.
bout May l, 1921, in the neigh
borhood of the former site of
the old elevator which burned
some time ago. At present the
cream is being taken at the
old E. J. Hood store and from

OUR OREGON FRUIT \
RANCHER HAS RETURNED

John E. Johnson of Lake
Lillian returned recently from
a trip to Sutherlin, Oregon,
where he went to harvest a
crop of apples on an orchard
which was set out for him and
a deceased brother about 8
years ago. Johnnie is very en-
thusiastic about this eleven &C
re fruit ranch. While the ex-
pense of keeping the trees
pruned and sponged is heavy,
the fruit amply repays all the
trouble. The apples brought
$2.75 a box at the station.
Johnnie sent the editor a box
of fancy Spetsenbergs, and we
must say they are some of the
finest we ever saw or tasted.
Mr.. Johnson says very few
Oregon apples find their way
to this part of the country.
Most of them are used on the
coast and for the export trade.

Altho greeted upon the up
ward roll of the curtain at the
Dreamland Theatre by a one
third capacity audience last
Sunday afternoon, the Will
mar. Municipal Concert Band
off fered its admirers who de-
fled, the inclement weather and
came to hear the boys, a pro-
gram we'll worth a packed
house. The organization of
thirty members most credit
ably acquitted itself and drew
the applause of the audience
after each number. It was to
be i regretted that a greater
number did not attend as the
band boys conclusively testi-
fed in their renditions that
they merited all the undivided
support of the people of Will
mar. If a capacity audience
had been there the general
public would more fully appre-
ciated the quality and the eff.
forts put forth by the Munich
pal Band. Prof. Hobbie is in
order for commendation for
having trained this band OF
home boys into an efficient and
fneiplaying organization.
The band made a pleasing
appearance in its white uni
forms and comfortably occu-
pied the entire stage. After

announced that. another con.
cert would be given some time

SEVERELY INJURED
By CIRCULAR SAW
Pennoek Man Pushed Upon Re.
!. !. volvins Disc By Fa1 Of
:. Wood ~ ~

Arthur. Hemmingson, age
.25, of Pennock, was seriously
injured last Saturday morning
at II 80 o'clock when he sus-
tanned a deep body cash and
three fractured ribs as results
from accidentally falling: on a
circular wood saw in motion,
while saving wood at his
home. The machine was sta
toned, near the large wood
pile when a slide of wood
crowded Mr.. Hemmingson up
on the saw. Before he could
recover himself the. saw had
penetrated to the lower part
of the right lung, severing 3
ribs. The deep wound extend
ed from the lower right side
but became more superficial
as it extended diagonally to-
wards the left shoulder. The
men engaged with him in cut
ting wood, in the emergency
placed a white cloth over his
chest and rushed him by car
to- the Willmar Hospital. No
large arteries were severed
and consequently the loss of
blood was not serious. Mr..
Hemmingson had strength
enough to walk into the hos
pital assisted by two men. An
examination revealed mo ap-
parent injury to the lung al
tho some effect may be discov-
cred later which cannot be dis
cerned now. The lacerated
tissue has been sewn and the
severed ribs put into place and
the patient is resting comfort

YOUNG MAN INJUR-
Ed In COLLISION
Carl Peterson Sustams Injuries
In Automobile
Crash

While driving his Ford car
towards the foot of an incline
near the State Hospital, John
Dickson of Pennock was blind
ed by the glare of another car
just arrived at the top of the
hill thus rendering him unable
to see the stationary Buick car,
owned and operated by Carl
Peterson which was halted at
the base of the hill while a
new tire was being put into
place. Carl had stopped his
car on the legal side of the
road to make the repairs when
the Ford crashed into and ag-
ainst the left side of the ma
chine throwing Peterson to the
hard road surface while he
was engaged near the front
wheels. The Buick suffered
very little damage but the
Ford Jared badly, its both
front wheels being torn off and
the frame severely battered.
Mr.. Dickson stated that the
bright lights of the approach
ing car temporarily blinded
him so that he did not perceive
the Peterson car Immediately
in front Of him. Peterson and
Dickson were driving out of
town on Wednesday evening
at IL o'clock when the acci-
dent took place. In the car
with Carl Peterson were Flea
nor and Francis Peterson, Le-
wis Gilbertson and Miss Carl
son, while in the Ford were
Mr.. Dickson and four others:
DR.. Freeman who arrived at
the scene of the collision took
Peterson to the Willmar Hos
pital where he is recovering
rapidly. An examination re-
vealed severe bruises and cuts
on the head, back and right
hips. None of the other occu-
pants in the cars were injured
or even noticeably bruised.

TRIBUNE SOON TO
M0VE'T0 new HOME
A Center of Intelligence To Be
Dedicated to Truth and
Justice

During the next few weeks,
the management of the Will
mar Tribune will be largely
in the hands of our associate
editor, Oscar Augustson. The
editor will devote his time to
the task of securing stock sales
in the Tribune Building Asso-
citation, and to moving the
plant into it's new home on
Fourth Street. He wants to
thank the friends of the Tri-
bune for the very kindly re-
ception given him so far, and
anticipates much pleasure in
renewing acquaintance in all
parts of the county.
What the new home will
mean to The Tribune will soon
be apparent to our readers af-
ter the change has been made.
In the matter of presswork,
for instance, we are now labor
ing under a great handicap.
Instead Of running two pages
at a time beginning early in
the week, our new press will
be automatic, taking paper
from a roll, printing both sides,
cutting and folding same into
sections ready to mail, at a
speed which will enable us to
have the press work on the or
binary paper done in less than
two hours. This will give us
| a chance for a makeup on our
paper all through in classified
departments and enable us to
accommodate all advertisers
with what space they desire
The expert will be here short
ly from Battle Greek, Michi.
gan, to set up our new press
which has been in storage here
since last spring.
In the new fire proof build.
ing the editor will have a splen.
did place for his library where
it will be available for refer.
ence, and a safe place for all
the records and cuts Of loca]
subjects which have accumu.
lated during thirty-two years
of active newspaper work i1
the county. It seems almost
too good to be believed that
our dream of years is about te
come true.
And best of all, we are Sc
curing the cooperation Of thu
people from all parts Of tht
county to the end that thu
building is to become co-opera
lively owned and it's perman
ency assured as a temple ded
icated to truth and the secur
ing of justice to the common
folks. It will be the founda
tion for greater progress We

A FULL EVENING OF
GOOD ENTERTAINMENT
Eugene Knox. Impersonator,
Holds Sway Over His Large
Audiences

No matter what form Of en-
tertainment is your favorite
one cannot but revel in the
sort of entertainment found in
the programs given by Eugene
Knox, the master character ar
tist on Thursday evening, Dec.
2, at the High School Audit
orium. His expression, person
atty and choice of character
representation are so magnet
ic that the numbers seem all
too brief. Mr.. Knox is prof.
cient in the use of dialects and
can in a startling manner shift
his mood, bearing and facial
behavior to represent the
most humorous characters.
He has given three thousand
entertainments in the United
States and Canada, many of
them return engagements. His
program is not shop-worn be-
cause the selections he reads
are in the main those that are
not given by any other enter
tainer. -
He calls his program can
Evening with American Auth
ors." His program has a pur-
pose in that each selection has
a bearing on the other parts
of his program. Prospective
patrons may prepare to hear
some typical American sket-
ches that have not been attem-
pied by any other artist.
His cuttings from Isl Klegg
and His Pard" are American
through and through. They
are things that will cause a re-
birth of American spirit and a
new joy in American citizen
ship.

FINEST PROGRAMS
DRAW SMALL CROWDS

The Lyceum Course which
was taken over by the school
from the American Legion is
not getting on financially as
we'll as it should. The two
numbers which have already
been given were very good but
the attendance was poor. The
total receipts to date are in the
neighborhood of $186, while
the amount guaranteed the
Redpath-Vawter Co. is 1855.
The school had expected to
make some money on the pro-
position and use this money
as part payment on stage cur
tains and scenery. AS matters
now stand they are likely to
face a deficit unless they are
able to get enough single ad-
missions for the last two num-
bers- to clear about $50. The
next number will be a humor-

PLANS DISCUSSED
FOR new HOTEL
Important Meeting Held at Elks
Club Last Monday
Niqht

A plan for a new hotel at
Willmar on the lots owned by
the Elks Building Association
located opposite the postomce
was favorably considered by
the Board of Trustees of the
Elks Building Association last
Monday evening.
While present conditions of
the money market are such as
to make it impossible to go a.
head at once, those at the head
are hopeful that the plan may
be proceeded with in the not
distant future.
E. M. Bondy, formerly of
this city, secretary of the Will
lam Hancke Investment Com
pany, made the offer to handle
the financing of the building,
at Mondays meeting which
was held in the Elks Lodge
rooms.
The plans provide for four
story building fronting one
hundred feet on Fourth Street
and one hundred and fifty feet
on Litchfield Avenue. The
lobby and dining room of the
hotel" and two stores would
be provided for on the ground
floor. The second and third
stories would be used for guest
rooms of which there would be
sixty-six, half Of these with
baths. The fourth floor would
be used for the Elks Club and
Lodge rooms.
The estimated cost of the
building will be about $780,.

A new modern hotel is great;

velopment of our city anC

to Phoenix as assistant supervisor Of
collectors offices of the United States
internal revenue bureau.
Mr. Hughes. regarded as one OF the
foremost efficiency experts in the
country, will be at the head of the
business department of the new COM
pany, in which a large amount of cast
ern and western capital has been in
vested. MIR. Hughes said yesterday
that he was not at liberty to make
known any OF the plans of the company
nor divulge the names IT its stars. nut
he is quite confident that it will figure
prominently in the motion picture IN
dustry. The studio Of the concern, he
said, would be located in Hollywood.
Mr.. Hughes was in government serv-
ice for Ia years, a part Of which he
spent with the bureau of efficiency.
For several years he made his head
quarters in Phoenix, serving as exam
liner Of accounts with the reclamation
service.
He declared that he was pleased that
his last official visit should be male
to this city and took occasion to praise
the internal revenue department for
the splendid manner in which it kept
up with the work. The district covered
by Hughes was from Reno to Phoenix,
embracing San Francisco and Los AM

HURR|ES O'SAY THAT
HIS SALARY IS $4,000

Fearful lest an alleged exaggerated
report about the amount of his annual
stipend from the state of Arizona might
occasion a misunderstanding on the
part of his creditors in regard 10 his
degree of solvency, Deputy Land Com

form, all concerned that his salary is
only $4,000 a year instead of $4,000. as
stated yesterday

ii is perfectly all right with him If the
elective officials of the state, or some
OF them. see fit to initiate an exclu-
sive measure for having their salaries
increased, but that he does not intend
to pose as the horrible example" of
the appointment lists.
The deputy land commissioner says
The Republicans information about
his $4,000 salary came 70 him yester-
day as a flattering expression of the
opir1ion in which he is held by the peo-
pIe. but that as a matter of fact he is
