No Better Man.

The selection of Henry Cabot Lodge
to serve as one of the representatives
Of the United States in the disarma=
ment conference is added proof of the
carefulness and wisdom of the presi-
dent in developing his plans for that
epoch-making conclave. Many strong
and able men are available, but the
name Of Henry Cabot Lodge takes first
place by the right of both merit and
seniority IF has participated for
many years in all important national
decisions affecting foreign relations,
and it was due to him, more than to
any other man, that the United States
senate made the great decision which
overruled strong president and COM
PEELED the submission Of the league of
nations project to the people.
Mr.. Lodges thorough knowledge Of
world affairs and his ardent Ameri-
canism are to be made still more USE
full in the conference about to, be- held.
He will be one Of the leaders, and his
efforts will beAdirected toward the ad-
justment 2ofs vexed questions THAT
stand insthe way of peace. With
Messrs: Hughes and Lodge the, Ameri-
can delegation will take first rank in
the conference.-the shington Post.-

Meefinp IF Legion and Auxiliary.

Meeting of Legion and Auxiliary.
The Fremont Woodcock post held its
regular monthly meeting last Thurs
day evening at the armory. Comman-
der Berggren gave an interesting re-
port of the state convention at Vino
ma. The twenty-five members present
then adjourned to the auxiliary rooms
to hold joint session with their sis
ter organization in the auditorium OF
the ar1nory.
The event of most significance at
this joint session was the presentation
of beautiful, silk flag, given to the
auxiliary unit 154 by Mrs Matte NAL
lette in memory Of her son, Captain
Lester Mallette. The flag was pre-
scented by Miss Grace Brennan and
received by Mrs. w. A. Gfrerer. Cap
tain Mallette was one of the victims
of the influenza plague that swept the
country during the fall and winter of
1918. He died on October 7, 1918, at
Camp Lee, Petersburg, Va. In con-
nection with the presentation of the
flag an interesting program was rem
dered consisting Of vocal solos by
Mrs. Ed. Nelson, Grace Dugan, Eileen
Kaliher and Mary Galley. Miss Grace
Dugan also gave reading. After
the program, refreshments were
served in the auxiliary and legion
rooms. Mrs. Ed. Evens was in charge
of the program and deserves much
credit for the capable planning of a
most enjoyable evening.
The joint meeting was preceded by
the regular meeting of the auxiliary
at which Mrs. Inga Berg reported the
convention at Winona. The members
Of the auxiliary and the legion were
certainly royalty entertained at Wi
mona.

Government to Distribute $4,000, 900.

Twenty million dollars, approx
mately, will be distributed to settlers
and other losers by the fires of Octo-
Der IL, 1918, within the. next six
months, and the distribution will be-
gin within sixty days.
The United States government will
foot the bill, and within short time
will establish an office here with
branches most likely at vantage
points throughout the districts affect
ed, to facilitate the distribution of
this vast sum.
This distribution will be in cold
cash, and will represent about so per
cent of the claims filed against the
government as administrator of the
railroads, as result of the terrible
conflagration which laid waste huge
territory and took toll of hundreds of
lives almost three years ago.-Duluth

Carload of Cream Shipped to New


~ Shipping a carload of sweet cream
to New York city is rather uncom-
mon occurrence, yet that is what was
done from Northfeld few weeks ago.
During the extended drouth cream was
a scarce article on the New York
market and when the opportunity
came to meet that demand the North
field plant Of the Twin City Milk Pro-
ducers association had the raw ma
terial and the equipment with which
to put it in condition for the long
trip. The cream was pasteurized and
reached New York in good condition.

Joyce Lewis, member of the legion
at Long Prairie, was among the
mourners at the funeral of his buddy,
Corporal Robert Burns Hess, at St.
Paul recently. Lewis owes his life
to the dead soldier. The latter
dragged him out of shell hole in
No Mans Land and was later killed in
action. Lewis, though crippled, re-
turned to the United States. He lost
all trace of his rescuer until he read
in a newspaper that the body of his
comrade would be brought back from
France for rcburial.
Membership in the legion is proving !
valuable in more ways than one. To

ed, fell, and never rallied. His rela-
tives could not be located but on his
person was an army discharge which
showed that "for unusual bravery un-
der heavy shell fire at Massey Aux
Co.'s" he was cited in orders. III. W..
Abrahams, a former buddy now living
in Minneapolis, declared, "Sam was a
fighting foor and the best buddy in
the world. Other first division men
used to say that the fifth artillery
was made up of fighting FOOLS but
few were as brave as Sam Lundeen."
And so, when all~efforts to locate his
relatives proved unavailing, Sans
comrades of the leg ion laid him gently
to rest on the green hillside of Crystal
Lake cemetery. His buddies of the
First Division association furnished
the pa1lbearers and fired the final sa-
lutte over his grave. Somewhere those
dear to him may read these lines and
feel comforted to know his grave will
not be forgotten. The legion stands
on guard.

Dear Corner Friends: delayed writing much longer than I intended. First, I want to thank those that Temem- bered me with cards on my birthday. Many weeks ago. I was pleased to re- ceive your greeting. I think the discus sions have been interesting and the ac- counts of the pionics. travels and va cation days have been thoroughly en- 1oyable reading. We would have been glad to have participated in those jolly picnics at Gardner Lake and Wildwood park Some had planned to go but were detained by unavoidable reasons. The day at the Gardner Lake picnic, 8 very enjoyable picnic was held at the pleasant home of Wiltwyck, The hours quickly passed in pleasant sociability as we sat under the shady tree on her lawn and many hands were busy with their needle work The noon hour was vel comed as the tempting and substantial lunch was served from tables on the lawn The usual good things prepared by the sisters, baked beans. salads. sandwiches, etc, were not long in evil dence before the keen appAtites of those present Before leaving the gardens were inspected and the luxurious growth of flowers, fruits and vegetables were ad- laired. Az we left for home we hoped for a repetition of such pleasant day. am sure more than one will agree with Red Rose in saying it does us good to meet in such a pleasant way.

There were over one hundred at the picnic. Aunty No. 1 was very busy en- tertaining us all. She has such 9 love ly place to have her picnics, out in the country just far enough and by setting the tables under t1e trees in the yard with flower gardens all around it cer- tainly looked lovely. 1 hope to be able to go there and to other picnics as often as possible We all thank Aunty No. 1, and her husband. for the lovely time we had at their home and hope to see them at other picnics where we will all try to repay them for the good time they gave us.

There were seven other camps there on the grounds staying in tents with four in most all of the tents. The three gig who were in the tett with me were from Massachusetts, One was from Three Rivers and the ether two lived near there. There were girls there from far and near. The counselor that we had was Mrs. Lathrop from Wfndham. Perhaps some of the sisters may know her. She was our ca,np mother alse.
 We had our camp prayers in the 7.ne grove in back of our rents every morning at half past sevea-before breakfast Then at g o'clock o'clock I went to Bible class which was conducted by Miss Lillian Picken. a missionary from India. wf1o has been homae here for q rest on account # her health.

HOW TO USE APPLES.

Dear Corner Members: It is time to begin to make use of the apples. Apples that are not fully rine should be used for jelly If possible, choose early astrakan apples.
 Wash apples and cut in quarters Shake out the seeds and cut out any black pieces. Put apples with a very little water in preserving kettle The less water the lighter the jelly, for it is the long cooking of the juice that makes a dark colored jelly. Just enough water to cover the bottom of the kettle is suffi- cient if the fire is very slow. Cook until apples are soft. Put into jelly bag and let drip without squeezing. Measure juice and use cup for cun of sugar and juice Cook juice and sugar till it sets when tried on cold plate. Put jelly glasses on several thicknesses of cloth Wrung out of hot water and pour the jelly into them. When, cold cover with paraffine.
 sprig of mint left in the jelly glass for a minute after the hot jelly is poured in gives the Jelly a very delicate flavor
 Apple Marmalade: Four pounds sour apples. three pounds sugar. two lemons one orange, one-han cup water
 Pare and core apples and chop coarsely or put through the food chopper Put orange through food chopper Use grated rind and juice nf lemons Put water ir preserving kettle Add a layer of apple and sprinkle with sugar. Continue until all is used. Put over slow fire and bring to the boiling point. Add grated rind and juice Of lemons and the chopped orange. Cook until thick and the apple. are soft If the marmalade cooks 40 ol 90 minutes pour into steriIzed jars anC seal while boiling hot. The marnalad, may be cooked longer and covered witi paraffine when cool.
 Apple Chutney: Two and one-hal pounds 'thickly sliced apples one pount brown sugar, one pound sultana raisins one tablespoon salt. one aessertspoon o mustard seeds, one dessertspoon grount ginger. one tablespoon minced onion. one half teaspoon cayenne pepper. one pin cider vinegar.
