the backs Of women. In direct con-
trast to this assertion Anna @. Mill
son, who is the featured player in the
screen play, contends that there is
nothing suggestive about an evening
gown, and that furthermore it serves
to make women more attractive in the
eyes of their admirers.
practically all Of woman's life
is conferred on being attractive to
either her husband or her intimate
friends" said Miss Nillson, smiling
demurely. Surely, if we take away
the right of a woman to look her best,
we rob her of the only possession
with which to hold her man. But
evening gowns are not to be despised.
In the picture my father sternly OBJ
jects to my wearing the gown simply
because he is an old-fashioned, mar
rowminded person whose foresight
has not gone beyond the walls of his
home. The broader viewpoint on this
question can be brought about by ed
ucation and religion, and by a saner
and more appreciative consideration
of their daughters problem by the
parents"

supporting Miss Nillson include

A WORTHWHILE ACHIEVEMENT

1t was to be expected that the To-
eating of the Veterans hospital at
St. Cloud would cause some criticism.
Commander Vandyke who is about to
sing his swan son as the head of the
Minnesota American Legion is one
of the critics. To the Herald it ap-
pears that Vandyke is more interest
ed in the development of the Twin
Cities than he is in the comfort OF
the crippled World War vetran. AT
any rate his wailing will amount to
nothing.
The site selected is ideal and the
commission in locating the hospital
acted wisely and for the best interest
of the veteran, as time will prove.
The Herald has not always been in
accord with the stunts pulled off by
St. Cloud but in going after and
landing this splendid institution the
wide-awake citizens Of the Granite
City are to be commended. 1t is not
only fine thing for the disabled war
hero, for the city of St. Cloud, but
Tor this SecClOn VI MAlHCooto'
The oneness" of the Granite City
is finely illustrated in the unanlmlty
with which the necessary 100000 for
the procuring of the land is being
raised. The drive started Monday
and before shutdown $4,000 of the
amount had been subscribed. Those
in charge of the drive stated to the
Herald editor Tuesday that it would
take some work to raise the remain
ing $1,000, but said there wasn't
any doubt in the minds of the COM
mittee of their ability to raise the
fund. And they will raise it too, be-
cause the city possesses bunch OF
"go-getters" seldom found IN as
large numbers in a city of the size OF
St. Cloud.
The head offices of the lnterna-
tional Harvester Co., at Chicago,
realizing the importance of the move
ment. wired their district manager,
Wells Levin at St. Cloud, to con-
tribute $500 to the movement. The
big fellows are contributing their dol
lars and widow and workingmen their
mites, to raise the fund.

Bad Hail Storm
The drought in central Todd coun-
ty was broken last Thursday by a
hard rain accompanied by hail. In
the village of Long Prairie the rain
was the hardest in years, the streets
being flooded and some damage done.
A hail storm which began in about
the central part of Reynolds and
swept southeast through Round
Prairie, did great deal of damage.
Some astonishing stories are told
about the size of the hail stones and
their quality. At the John Swanson
farm in Reynolds the hail lay on the
ground for six hours after the storm,
while many people gathered hail
stones that were larger than ordin-
airy eggs. On some of the farms
the hail punched holes in the ground
severalsinches deep and without doubt
would have killed people had anyone
been unfortunate enough not to have
been able to get under cover. The
hail fell over strip of land about a
mile wide and about ten miles lrng
and was one of the most serio..s hail
storms the county has experienced IN
years.-Long Prairie Leader.
Death by Suicide
Dominick Kipta, a well known
farmer living in the town of Hart
ford, five miles north of Browecv:l'e
committed suicide on Wednesday OF
last week by shooting himself through
the head with a % calibre rifle. The
act took place in a small wooded pas
ture about a quarter of nile west
of his house and at about II O'clock
in the morning. His body was foulc
at noon. There is no known reason
for the suicide. He had been work.
ing in the fields during the morning
when he suddenly quit work, went te
the house, took the rifle and went
out into the pasture. When he die
not return search was made with the
result that his body was found where
he had shot himself. Mr.. Kiptt wa;
