Should a Husband Forgive -

Should a Husband Forgive %
This is the problem of the ages,
and one which every trend of mod
ern civilization reflects in grow
ing Importance.
William Fox has undertaken to
answer this question in a stupen-
dous, thrilling melodrama of mod
ern life which the Princess Thea
tire will show on Monday and
Tuesday.
You, as a thinking person, can
not fail to be enthralled by this
gripping photoplay, which attacks
the vital problem from every angle
and lays bare the sins and weak
nesses of our social system in a
series of situations which grow
more and more intense as action
progresses.
You will sympathize with beau
tiful Miriam Cooper and with
Vincent Coleman as the girl and
boy. You will weep with Mrs. Jas.
X. Hackett as the wife whose nus
band would not forgive. You will
hate the loathsome villain who
ruined her life. You will see thS
unmasking of Rex Burleigh, the
fine gentleman" played by Percy
Standing. You will thrill and thrill
as one exciting scene follows an
other--and you will cheer when
Ruth finally rides to victory in the
smashing race track finale.
This is the biggest picture we
have shown. You must see it, for
the answer to the vital question
expressed in the title will please
you.

OBSERVE THE SABBATH

The desecration of the Sabbath
last Sunday in the firing off of
frecrackers, apparently of the
largest variety, by the noise they
made, by boys and young men, all
day, and especially during the
evening while church services
were going on, was something
that should have been stopped.
We saw an automobile with sew
eral young men driving past the
Church of Christ, when directly in
front the crackers were lighted
and thrown out, making noise
that people a block away would
jump at. We saw cracker thrown
under a moving machine with lad
les and children in it, exploding
like a gun shot, and we heard
them during the whole church
service and until nearly midnight
Last Sunday was exactly a week
before the Fourth of July. 1t was
dn unnecessary and shameful dis
play of patriotism.
1t may be the same program will
be repeated next Sunday, if the
crackers haven't run out, but com
mon decency for the observance
of the Sabbath day should prevail
and we trust that the day will be
more quiet than last.

SUGAR 1Oc PER POUND

We clip the following from a
late issue of Capper's Weekly
(Kansas newspaper.)
At Windsor, Canada, just across
the river from Detroit, sugar sells
for 10 cents, or % cents less than
it does in Detroit. Consequently
smugglers are trying to buy up all
the available supply in Western
Ontario and get it across the bor-
der. If the sugar shortage" in
the United States was more real
than speculative, the Canadian
supply would be proportionately
short. That sugar is 10 cents a
pound in Canada and 80 cents q
pound just over the line in the
United States is reasonable
proof that the alleged sugar short
age is mostly fiction, an artificial
shortage due to manipulation in
order to hold up the people of the
United States for % cents on ev-
cry pound. 1t amounts to the
most colossal robbery in the his
tory of the world.

MRS. FANNIE FRENCH MORSE
CALLED TO WASHINGTON
TO DISCUSS PROJECT

Sauk Centre and the Minnesota
Home School for Girls will play a
prominent part in the future of all
public institutions in the American
nation.
The community plan for the con-
ducting of all schools and penal in
stitutions where women and girls are
located, will very soon become a
part OF the program in every state
In the Union and this method will be
assisted by the Congress of the
United States.
Mrs. Fannie French Morse, who

Washington early in December to
take part as member of National
Committee to draw up a program
for the Protection of Women and

its resolutions and recommendations,
will be presented to Congress at it's

Perhaps the most important clause
is the resolution adopted concerning
the Inauguration of the community
plan of operation, was the calling the
attention of congress to the fact that
inmates of these institutions are a
community product and as such are
Irresponsible to the community for
their condition"
This is the principal upon which
the whole plan Of work at the Sauk
Centre community school is based
the plan which is being adopted in
many states and nations and which
will soon become a part of the ma
tional plan for the conduct Of all in
stitutions.
The work Of the committee is be-
ing promoted to a great extent by
the women's clubs of the country.
At the Washington meeting, Mrs.
Morse was called upon to explain in
detail the work being done here with
the cooperation of the people OF
Sank Centre. Others speakers pre-
sent at the Washington gathering,
spoke of the splendid accomplish
ments of the Minnesota plan, and the
committee, acting upon this testi-
mony, made it's recommendations to
Congress, giving adequate publicity
to the ,Sauk Centre community plan
of operation.

with the results of her Washington
visit. eve have the only institution
