First Baptist MonIight Picnie.

The Baraea and Philathea Glasses
of the First Baptist Church united in
entertaining the remaining Sunday
School workers and church officers at
a moonlight picnic last Friday even
ing. AT six o'clock Friday evening
hosts and guests gathered at the First
Church from whence they motored to
Mr.. McPherson's country place, five
miles from town, where every pro-
vision had been made for thorough
ly enjoyable moonlight social, an cleo
trically lighted barn offering shelter
in the event of inclement weather. A
joint committee from the two classes
had arranged an attractive program
embracing vocal and violin solos,
readings, and impromptu little talks,
which was carried out with much fun
and pleasure, the two classes contain
ing many talented entertainers who
are ever generous with their talents.
The box lunches carried by the Phila-
theas, and the ice cream which the
Barracks contributed and served, made
repast that completed az most de-
lightful affair.

A show blew into town one day this
week, and made preparations for en-

Nickles, the deputy sheriff, came up
and said TO the manager, Give dol

manager blew up, and in a rage, re-
loaded his Ford truck, and left for
parts unknown. The itinerant show
brings to the small town an economic
loss, to say nothing Of the moral de-
triment it brings. Let the town and

Vacation Activities.


Vacation with its alluring prospect
Of ball games, pienics, fish fries,
dances, house parties, and general
idleness, is an accomplished fact for
the school children or the teachers,
however, the season presents oppor-
tunities for improvement and study,
of which the members of the Colum-
bus Faculties have been eager to take
advantage, as evidenced by the num-
Der of teachers from the city and
county schools who are now attend
ing summer schools. Professor J. TO-.
Meadows heads the list, having left
last week for Nashville, Tenn, where
for the past several summers he has
spent the greater part of his vacation
in summer work at the Peabody Nor
NAL. Others who will be at the Pea
body. Normal this summer, are Misses
Corinne Nickles, Myrtle Roberts, and

First Raptist Kitchneite.

According to modern ideas of a
completely equipped Sunday School
building, a kitchenette is recognized
as a necessary adjunct to church So
cial functions, so the Sunday School
organizations of the First Baptist
Church are getting together the
equipment for this modern addition
to their Sunday School building. For
the present, a recitation room, not in
use will serve as the kitchen The
deacons have appropriated 500 for
the furniture, part of which has al
ready been expended for a central
table. A generous church worker has
contributed an oil stove, and each
class in Sunday School has agreed to
furnish some particular necessity, the
Cradle Roll will give ice cream
plates, the Primaries will furnish cups
and saucers, the Intermediates and
Juniors are to contribute plates, the
Seniors and adults have promised the
glass, the Philathea's tea spoons, the

party in contemplation, plans for
which are now in progress, general
shower of kitchen utensils is expect
ed.

AND
THE RED CROSS

Many people ask What has the
Red Cross done since the war, and why
should we support the Red Cross
when there is SO much to be done at
home?" In answer to these questions
it might be well to tell just what the
Red Cross has done in Minnesota since
the adoption of its Peace Time Pro-
gram in 1919.
Local chapters of the Red Cross
have established fifteen health CEN
tiers in Minnesota, which are equipped
and maintained for the use of the ru-
raj communities. The health center Is
usually in charge Of the Red Cross
Public Health nurse, and at the GEN.
ter clinics are held. Glasses in Home
Hygiene and Care Of the Sick, and
First Aid are conducted. Health lit
erature is distributed and a systema-
tic fight for the prevention of disease
is carried on. In Wright County the
health center idea was demonstrated
to the people by a model health center
on truck which travelled through the
county. The establishment Of health
centers, though only suggested dur
ing the past year, has met with the
approval Of the various county organi-
cations throughout Minnesota, and
there will be great many more in
operation before thu close Of the year
The influenza epidemic and Mime
sota's various disasters emphasized the
need of equipment for emergency re-
lief, so fifty three # the local chap
ters in Minnesota have outfitted and
are maintaining Loan Closets" These
Loan Closets" consist Of supply Of
hat water bags, bed pans, first aid
materials, an invaiid's chair, stretch
ers, blankets. sheets, pillows. Daia1nas
and other sick room and emergency
supplies, so that when a disaster or
epidemic does occur. tn" necessary
supplies are always available.
Through the Red Cross. local chap
ters in Minnesota have employed fiji
ty-one Public Health nurses. Forty
eight Of these mr. % are entirely fin
anced by the Red Cross, and three are
affiliated services. The duties Of
these nurses include; Making a health

REFORM THE
DIRECT PRIMARY

The direct PRIMARY System, after
varying periods Of tria! in various
States, has utterly failed TO effect the
improvement ii putt:ca! conditions
that was promised for il. On the
contrary, it has produced dcmorallza-
ton and deterioration.
Judge Miller, the Republican Cover
nor-elect of New York, an able man
and indepe ndent thinker, has borne re-
cent witness to this. Questions put
to Judge Miller while mating speech
es evoked such replies as these:
| think, sir, that a statewide direct
it has afforded opportunity for two
and a snare, q fraud. | think that
primary has proved to be a deluslOn
things, for the demagogue and the
man with money, and | am IN favor
of restoring, as far as the election OF
State and judicial candidates IS con-
cerned, a representative party system.
1t is utterly impossible in this
Country to have mass action IN any
unit as large as the State. The Ell
feet of the direct primary law on the
selection of our candidates has been
to cause deterioration, The effect of
the direct primary law as applied to
the State at large has been bad. / be-

and people who say 1t Is, deceive you.
The direct primary, as Judg e Miller
points out, offers opportunity uneX-
celled for two demoralizing influences
in our political life the damagogue
and the man with money who Is rea-
DIV to use it to get office. Anyone
who has studied the workings of the
direct primary the Country over must
have been struck by the openings it
has given for the inSincere and time
serving demagogue, and for the am

ditures that obliterate the chances OF
those less we'll supplied.
New York's experience has been
that of Minnesota. In this State the
direct primary has few defenders who
are honest in their defense. Yet Leg
islature has, with the cowardice that
sometimes infects our parllaments,
State and National, failed to correct
even it's worst faults.
The imperative need for party con-
ventions in Minnesota has resulted IN
their being held, despite their extra
legal character. Even the Nonpartl-
san Leaguers, who are naturally fond
of the praimary system for the oppor-
tunity it gives them to defeat scat

The Republicans of Minnesota this
year, forced to find way of uniting

they could scarcely have done this,
