Business Mems
Committee To Aid
National Guard

A meeting of the business men of
this city was held in the Business
Mems Club Room in the Armory last
Friday evening. About rs or 80 OF
the leading business men OF the city
were present. The meeting was call
ed for the purpose of discussing Nat
ional Guard activities in general, and
more particularly with reference to
the local unit.
Captain Dawson explained to the
gathering the plans and expectations
which he held for the 107th Ammuni-
ton Train, the local company, and
was pledged the hearty support OF the
business men of River Falls in carry
ing out his program.
Captain Dawson, with the coopera
ton and support of the citizens OF
River Falls, hopes to have all OF the
equipment which would be issued to
the forth Ammunition Train for ac-
tive duty, issued to it. at its home
station. This would mean that ap-
proximately $4,000, now being ex-
pended by the Federal Government
in maintaining this equipment in some
regular army camp, would be spent in
River Falls instead. The local COM
pany brings between $4,000 and
$4,000 annually into this community,
which would not otherwise be spent
here. and if issued the rest of its
equipment, this annual expenditure
would be increased to between $4,000
and $4,000. All that is required OF
the citizens of River Falls to bring
this added money into our city Is
their hearty cooperation and support
The War Department has this money
to spend, and if not here it will be
spent somewhere else. Everyone in
River Falls should be interested in
having it spent here, where we will
derive some direct benefit from it.

or supply depot.

The committee is at present consider
ing plans for Harvest Carnival ano

ton will vie with that of May goth

"LADDIE' CHRISTENSEN

After only brief illness Charles
Alfred, infant son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Alfred Christensen, died Saturday,
August 81, at the age of ten months
and twelve days. Besides his bereav-
ed parents he leaves little sister,
Jean, to miss her bright and happy
little companion.
Though little "Laddie," as he was
called, made so short stay he so en-

death leaves a vacancy that cannot be
filled.
The heartfelt sympathy of the COM

their sorrow.
Funeral services were held Monday
afternoon at the Ezekiel. Lutheran

Tho with grief they've empty grown
See, the Lord Himself stands waiting,
Waits to welcome in his own.

The Princess Theatre will observe

great Paramount Aircraft pictures.
A display adv. elsewhere in this paper
shows the program for the entire
week, commencing with the super
special, "The Miracle Man." which
will be shown Monday and Tuesday,
Sept. and 6.
A most absorbing story is unfolded
in George Loane fuckers new Para
mount Aircraft picture, "The Miracle
Man"
This picture, which was adapted
from George NJ. Cohan's striking
Broadway success of the same name
is declared to be one of the really
great screen dramas of modern times.
The original story was written by
Frank L. Packard.
The plot of s'The Miracle Man
deals with the moral transformation
of a gang of New York crooks under
the benefcient influence of deaf and
blind patriarch who is healer OF
proven powers. Coming to him orig
inally with the idea of making money
out of his gift, these four products OF
the metropolis slum are made mirac-
ulously to realize their better selves.
Thomas Meighan, Elinor Fair, Betty
Compson, and other screen players
of unusual ability interpret the fas-
chatting story in a manner that leaves
nothing to be desired.

mount week at The Princess. Read

CHINA MUST SETTLE
CIVIL STRIFE TO GAIN
RECOGNITION, BELIEF
tBy Associated Press)

PEKING. Oct. 25.-The Tientsin
newspaper, Ia Chun Shang Pao, be-
lieves that, with civil strife upsetting
the country, China can hope for little
benefit from the Pacific conference.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs
has just established an investigation
bureau for the purpose of gathering
materials, records and other docu-
ments to be used at the Pacific confer
ence in connection with China's case"
says that paper.
I'VE believe this can do little to-
ward attaining our object for so long
as China lacks the power essential to
success, foreign powers will continue
TO look down upon her and treat her
as an inferior; SO that even if we
have overwhelming evidence at our
disposal to support our case, they will
never take the trouble to go into 1t
so as to render a decision in our
favor. Under such circumstances it
would be foolish to expect success.
The all-important question today is
to settle our domestic strife. When
peace and order are restored, foreign
ers in our midst will not suffer from
occasional disturbances, and their min
listers and governments, seeing that
China still has the ability to maintain
order, will naturally treat us with re
spect, and the Japanese propaganda
that China has not the necessary ca
pacity to protect foreign life and prop
erty and that Japan should be ap
pointed guardian over her, will ex
plode by itself.
Must Settle Strife
IF all this can be accomplished be
fore the Pacific conference. we are moi
without a ray of hope. If, however
we indulge in continual civil strife be
tween one province and another We
4 are simply furnishing evidence Il
prove the truth of the Japanese con
tention.
For the peace of the Far East anC
the interests of their nationals foreign
powers cannot but approve the inter
naturalization of China and ii is per
haps not unlikely that they will charge
Japan with the task Of overseeing us
When this happens our sovereign!
will be completely lost and what favol
can We expect from the powers wheI
we set forth all our evidence anC
records before them to support Gu
case?
Let both the people and the govern
ment work to avoid this eventuality.
