ton that deserves the financial support
of everyone able to do it. and who is
disposed to help his neighbor in need
The membership is divided into five
classes as follows:
Members of relief committees and
any friendly visitor, while engaged in
actual work, and the principal officer or
representative of each organization
that gives financial support each year
are known as active members
Any person contributing S10O per
year is known as an annual member.
Any person contributing $500 per
year is known as/an associate member.
Any person contributing not less than
$40. 90 per year is known as a subscrip-
ton member.

work was necessary, but now the sit
uation is different and several families
who have been in actual want have
been provided with food, clothing and
fuel through the aid of this organiza-
~tion.
All applications for aid may be re-
ferred to Mrs. Alfred C. Anderson,
president.
Christiana School House Dedication.
On Tuesday, Dec. 20, in the evening,
the new school house in District No. 10,
Town Of Christiana, will be dedicated
with appropriate exercises.
This new building replaces the old
historical Smithback school house in the
center of the township, where for forty
years all town meetings were held.
The new school house Is of fireproof
construction and modern throughout.
1t has electric lights and running water.
There are indoor toilet rooms and a
large, we'll lighted gymnasium in the
basement. On the ground floor are 10.
Gated the school room and large cloak
room with built-in lockers for cloaks
and wraps. At one end of the school
room are the library with its built-in
shelves, and the kitchen with its cabi-
net and other kitchen conveniences.
The entire first floor is furnished in
antique oak. 1t Is easily the finest and
most convenient country school house
in the state.
The people of the district, realizing
that between the ages of five and four
teen years, for nine months in every
year, their children will spend three
fourths of their waking hours at school,
have tried to make the school house as
attractive, comfortable and sanitary as
possible.
The Mothers club of the district will
hold bazaar in the afternoon, and the
dedication will be in the evening at
7:3O. A representative of the Depart
ment of Public Instruction of the state
will be the principal speaker and will
conduct the dedication exercises.
Invitation to attend is extended to
the general public, and special invita-
lions are being sent to all state officers
and to local schools and school officers
The arrangements for the affair include
serving cafeteria supper before and
after the dedication program
The officers of the school, who have
had charge of the construction work,
are Geo. H. Benson, G. O. GulIickson
and Otto Onstad

The community Christmas tree, q
large cedar, is already in its place at
the corner of Falton and Henry streets,
ready for its decorations.
An important meeting was held by
the Ralph Amundson Post of the Amer
lean Legion Wednesday evening. The
question of a ritual form was discussed
among other matters of interest to tie
post
Judging by the loads of the mail
carriers the public is responding to the
"early posting of parcels" call sent out
a week ago by the postal authorities.
1t saves the carriers by having the bur-
den distributed over longer period.
and the gifts are just as welcome if
they arrive week ahead of time.
Besides the work of the Commun-
ity Council in relieving want where it
is found, the churches are making in
quiries and assisting needy members
wherever located While conditions in
Edgerton are by no means serious, it
adds to the Christmas cheer to have
everybody we'll taken care of at this
season.
The tax rate for this year in our
city is just S25 on the 1000. Last year
it was $24.81. Anyone interested in
knowing the reason for the increase
should consult the report of the city
council proceedings printed in this is
sue. The council has decided to refrain
from any street building during the
coming season. Any such program will
have to wait
