A Veterans Sentiments.

The following pretty sentiments
appeared in a letter written to the
American Legion Weekly by T. A. N.
Getting of Greensboro, N. c.:
Brothers of yesterday, you who lie
sewn in your blankets in the little
shallow graves over there, we send
you greeting.
"You have solved the great problem
and we pray that you are truly at
rest. You are indeed fortunate not
to have lived to see how little your
efforts to free the world of jealousy
and power-seeking have failed. Had
you lived you would have seen the
ideals for which we fought and died
swept aside in rush for political
power and material gain. Better to
be forgotten thousand times than to
be exploited by those who can never
understand what you suffered. Better
to be where you are than to be the
subject of political quibbling as to
whether you should be cared for or
not. But in the minds of your broth
ers, who also served, there is no for
getfulness of the horrors of war or
the sacrifice you made.
brothers Of yesterday, we send you
greeting" 800:

The Girls of the Sixties.

The Girls of the Sixties, seven in
number, met at the home of Mrs.
Evalyn Keith on Friday afternoon to
celebrate the birthday anniversaries
of Mrs. Eta Libby and Mrs. Belle
Rogers, both of which occurred upon
the same day. How old they were
they refused to say, but little bird
whispered seventy" Mrs. Keith pre-
pared veritable banquet for the
"girls" and Mrs. Mount presented
them with a beautiful centerpiece for
the dining table. The guest of honor
was Miss Lydia E. Tompkins of Cali
fornia, who formerly taught in the
Princeton public schools and is here
on visit. The event was one of the
most enjoyable in the clubs history
even though, there were but few of
the members present.

portant with the unimportant as to
give variety and relief. This simple
law of the human mind is receiving
notable illustration today.
The public cannot always remain at
the war pitch. If it did it would lose
its equilibrium. But the soldiers of
the war will not be forgotten, nor will
the outlines of the mighty conflict suf-
fer eclipse. In fact, they will grow
clearer and more majestic with the
perspective that comes with time

Enormous Sum Spent on Roads.

Combined federal and state expendi-
lures for road building may total
50,OOO,OO0 during the current fiscal
year, according to Thomas B. McDon-
aid, chief of the bureau of public roads,
department Of agriculture.
The last installment of federal aid
funds totaling $10O,O0O,OO0 became
available last July l. Three-quarters
OF this apportionment was derived
from the 1919 appropriation in 1916.
If the states continue to pay more
than so per cent of the cost as they
have in the past" Mr.. Mcdonald said,
1T will be necessary to plan for con-
struction at the rate of at least $780,
100000 and probably more each year.
State highway departments should
know at least year in advance what
funds are to be available that plans
may be made for future construction.

Twenty-six of these SO states had
republican legislatures, seven were
democratic and three had only one
branch republican. Eight states have
rejected the amendment, one being re-
publican and seven democratic. Four
states, two republican and two demo-
cratic, have not acted on the amend
ment. 1t would seem that the laurels
of victory to the suffrage fight rest
with the republican party.
In the world suffrage movement the
United States has been decidedly in
the rear of the procession. The women
in England, Germany and 10 other
foreign countries today have full suf-
frage. We have been slow in joining
the ranks but now let American
women show themselves worthy of
the ballot.

Hurrah for Margaret!

For the first time in America women
Of South st. Paul on Friday exercised
the newly enfranchised power, pro-
claimed by Secretary of State Colby
upon the previous day, when they cast
their ballots in a special election to
determine whether their city shall or
shall not have an improved water sup
ply. Miss Margaret Newberg was
the first to vote. She arose at S a. M,
trotted to- the. polling booth without
waiting for breakfast, and arrived
there at 5:45. When the polls opened
at 6 o'clock Margaret secured her bal
lot and 10 seconds thereafter the first
vote under the new nationwide suf-
frage law had been cast.
Hurrah for Margaret!

Real Robideau's Body Arrives.

The body of Real Robideau, who
died in British hospital on Octo-
Der IA, 1918, reached here last Thurs
day evening under escort of non-
commissioned officer for interment.
On Sunday afternoon the funeral
was held with military honors, under
the auspices Of Fremont Woodcock
post, American legion, at st. Edwards
Catholic church and the interment was
in the Catholic cemetery.
Rev. Chas. A. Mayer conducted the
solemnities and delivered very i'm
pressive and appropriate address. He
reviewed the career Of this young SOL
der, who gave up his life for his coun-
try, and paid high tribute to his true
American spirit, saying that although
he never reached the height of his am
bition by being afforded an opportuni-
ty to engage in actual battle, he was
nevertheless entitled to equal honor
with those who fell at the hands of the
foe. Rev. Mayors sermon was i'm
bued with patriotic pathos, and many
persons in the congregation shed tears
as he delivered the impressive grafton.
The funeral was one of the most
largely attended in the history of
Princeton, many people being unable
to gain admittance to the church.
Legionaires escorted the body as a
guard Of honor and also acted in the
capacity Of pallbearers. The casket
was draped with United States flag
and there were many beautiful floral
offerings.
Real Robideau enlisted in the United
States tank service on May ID, 1918,
and was later sent to Columbus bar
racks, Ohio; from there he was trans
ferred to Camp Colt, Pa, and then to
Camp Tobyhanna in the same state.
He left for England the latter part of
September and was taken from the
transport sick. AS result of this
sickness he died six days after enter
ing the hospital. He was a son of
Lewis Robideau and was born in
Greenbush on June %, 1895. He was
married on Memorial day, 1918, to
Miss Isabelle Esler of Greenbush, and
a few days after his marriage he left
home to serve his country.

Italian Queens.

"Beekeepers over the state," says G.
c. Mathews of the division of bee Gull
ture at university farm, SHOULD real
lie the Importance of having each col
ony of bees headed by young Italian
queen before autumn. The queen
should be young so that she may fill
her colony with bees for winter.
Laying queens purchased from the uni
versity or from queen breeders may
be introduced even after September 1.
In introducing queens be sure that the
colony is queenless and that all cells
built by the bees are destroyed before
the new queen is liberated from her

Bert Glidden Narrowly Escapes Dealt

Bert Glidden Narrowly Escapes Death.
An accident occurred last Saturday
which somewhat dampened the holiday
spirit in Elk River. Bert Glidden,
who was driving AN oil tank, was
struck by passenger train at about
9 a. m. on the upper crossing. A box
car standing at the crossing obstruct-
ed Mr.. Glidden's view so he did not see
the approaching train. Fortunately
the train was not running at full speed,
but the tank was almost demolished by
the force of the impact and Mr. Gid
den was hurled some distance. It was
thought he had suffered serious in
ternal injuries. DR.. Parsons imme-
diately drove with him to hospital
in Minneapolis.
According to the latest reports Mr..
Glidden is recovering from the shock
and apparently his injuries are not
serious.

Picnic in Minneapolis.

The former residents of Princeton
who are now living in the Twin Cities
had reunion at Riverside Park, Min
neapolis, last Friday. Some of the
ladies and children assembled in the
afternoon and the whole company was
present to partake of the bountiful
picnic supper. Nearly all of us have
at some time broken bread with these
good people and we know those lunch
baskets were well filled. A good old
fashioned picnic is like an oasis in
the desert after the years Of food con-
servation during the war and the later
period of prohibitive high prices. One
lady who was present remarked that
it seemed as though she had never be-
fore seen such quantities of delicious
food.
The two hours after supper passed
pleasantly and all too quickly with the
old friends exchanging "reminiscences
and fond parents proudly displaying
small youngsters. Mr.. George F.
Wright made brief address. At his
suggestion the former Princetonians
formed an organization which will
meet twice year. The entire COM
pany wished to extend, through the
Union, their kindest greetings to the
old friends in Princeton.
About 40 persons were present in

A Well-StOcked Library.

The library board met last Friday
evening in the library, which is situat-
ed in the south end of the high school
building. The board met to conduct
it's regular business and to confer
with the librarian, Mrs. Owens, who
has lately returned from six weeks
intensive training in library work at
the university, which course qualities
her to serve as a librarian in COM
pliance with the law and places our
library on a par with the other
libraries of the state.
1t is perhaps not generally known
that Princeton boasts a library so we'll
stocked both as to standard and popu-
lar fiction and current magazines. An
especially attractive feature of the
library is a fve-cent shelf, which con-
tains the very latest fiction. New
books are being added to this shelf
constantly. Among the latest .addi-
lions are the following: The Man Of
the Forest and the Rainbow Trail, by
Zane Grey; The Rivers End, by Cur
wood; The Rim Of the World and Chip
Of the Flying w, by Bower; Oh, Mon
ey! Money!, by Eleanor. Porter; Isn't
That Just Like Man! Oh, Well, You
Know Just What a Man is Like!, by
Mary Roberts Rinehart and Irving
Cobb. This shelf is self supporting
and we'll repays the patronage it re-
-ceives.
The board uses other funds at its
disposal for the purchase of much
needed standard works both of fiction
and non-fiction. 1t has just placed an
order for number of such volumes.
Thus it should be evident to all that
Princeton is fast acquiring valuable

Are People Fed Up on War?

Librarians report notable falling
away of interest in war books. Pub
fishers have notified story writer's and
dramatists that books and plays deal-
ing with the war no longer find a
ready market. A we'll known author
recently declared that the public is
tired Of war and all that pertains
! thereto.
No doubt, there is much truth in
this contention, but it does not mean
that the people will give up their
memories of the great conflict or that
they are. going to forget the great
sacrifices made.
For four years and more the world
was in state of constant excitement.
Some let-down must inevitably follow.
This is perfectly natural. The UNI
balanced or insane person cannot let
a subject go, but sdwells upon it to the
point Of obsession. It is the mark of
sanity tqsrelease one idea for another.
Psychologists say that even a high
ly developed intellect cannot focus con-
tinuously on, one thing more than "a
quarter of an hour at a time. How
then can it be expected that the aggre-
gate of individuals who compose the
public will keep its attention on d SUBJ
ject for years !?
No matter how interesting a subject
may be, the wise teacher knows that
there must be relief and perspective
in the matter, of giving attention.
Monotony is the enemy of thought and
sanity. Voluntary attention is the
gold Of the mind, but it is expensive,
for it means effort and strain. It is
well that every day so blends the inn

St. Cloud Catholic Church Burns.

The oldest Catholic church in
Stearns county-the Immaculate Con-
ception, better known as st. Mary's.
St. Cloud-was completely destroyed
by fire on Wednesday of last week.
So rapidly did the flames spread that
it was only possible to save the church
vestments and the sacred vessels from
the affairs. The fire which apparent
ly started in the roof, is of unknown
origin.
Bishop Grace of St. Paul laid the
cornerstone of this church on July 10,
1864, and the same prelate dedicated
the edifice on December 10, 1865. It
was built in the Gothic style and its
dimensions were 145 by GA feet.
