Rev. and Mrs. Milne HOnOred.

The following is an excerpt from
the Fairmont Sentinel:
The reception at the Congregational
church Monday evening in honor of
Rev. Mr.. Milne, the new pastor, and
his charming wife, was most enter
tanning affair.
The program was happy and snap
wv, everyone of the numbers bristling
with bright ideas, good stories or time
ly suggestions.
Supt. Brainerd off1ciated as master
of ceremonies and was most felicitous
in his introductions.
The piece de resistance of the even
ing was Mrs. Richardson's address,
For the Church." an earnest plea for
harmony, loyalty to organization, fell
lowship, forgiveness and charity. Her
remarks put the audience in good HUI
NOR and cleared the atmosphere for
good things that were to come.
Every speaker was most cordial in
greetings to Rev. Mr.. Milne and his
family. The new pastor, in his short
but eloquent talk, showed his appre-

BOB BERG INJURED.

Princeton Game and is Car
ried From the Field.
In the ball game between Princeton
and Lindstrom at the latter place on
Sunday the Union regrets to state
that Bob Berg, one of the best men
on our team, was struck by pitched
ball and put out of commission. He
received a heavy smash on the right
side of his head, near the temple,
which caused temporary blindness,
rendered him speeches. and for a
time paralyzed his right side. Three
doctors were called and they ex-
pressed the opinion that, SO terrific
was the impact, had the ball struck
the temple Bob would never have
lived to tell the tale.
On Tuesday Bob had sufficiently re-
covered from the shock to be brought
home, where he YVES placed under the
care of DR.. Cooney, and is progressing
favorably toward recovery.
Bob's friends all hope to soon sec
him again holding up his end with the
Princeton baseball team.

Legality of Clause Assailed.

The subdivision of the 1921 law to
reimburse municipalities for money
paid out for permanently improving
the highways described in the Babcock
good roads amendment is declared to
be unconstitutional in an opinion given
by c. H. Christopherson, assistant at
torney general. Counties, however,
can be reimbursed for county work
only.
"This subdivision was added after
the original draft of the law was
made" Mr.. Christopherson says, "and
it was so added at the insistence of
several cities and villages which de-
sired reimbursement for work done of
a permanent character on roads desig3
mated as trunk highways
