MEMORIAL IN CAMBRIA

Cambria. June 1.-The memorial
day program at Cambria was very
impressively carried out A very
well prepared program of recita-
tions and songs was rendered, and
an able address was given by Rev.
A. w. Ross, PHD., of Redwood Falls.
Rev. Ross said among other things
that the custom of spreading flow
ers over the graves of the dead was
a beautiful one and the lesson to
the living was, TO spread flowers of
unselfishness and love to one an
other and these acts of kindness
and love would be Of untold benefit
TO her. He said that although the
Civil War, the Spanish American
war, and the recent World War had
preserved our nation and made 1t
safe for democracy here in Ameri-
ca, yet We had many dangers to
contend with and the greatest dan
ger was from within. He said that
it behooved every American citi-
zen to be law abiding and patri-
otic citizens, for obedience to law
was a fundamental principal in any
good government. Rev. Ross ad-
dress was listened to by an appre
ciative audience and his talk will
long be remembered. The Memorial
day organization at Cambria is a
permanent one and there will be-
program again next year.

De Molay Boys Hosts
To Masons Last Night
Sir Galahad Chapter Conferred
Degrees On Glass In Per-
- feet Form. .

Sir Galahad Chapter, Order OF De
Molay for boys, of this city. held a
special ceremonial last night where
the two degrees of the order were
conferred upon a class of six can
didates. AS guests of the occasion
members of the Masonic fraternity
from the city and neighboring
towns and villages were invited to
attend, and witness the ex empli.
fication of the work, and a large
number responded among the num-
Der being delegations from Fair
mont, Mapleton, St. Clair, Eagle
Lake and other places, the guests
numbering over two hundred which
taken together with the chapter
members taxed the capacity of the
hall. The delegation from Fair
mont came to get pointers regard
ing the chapter and work with the
view Of organizing the boys of that
place, and they were both highly
pleased and greatly impressed with
what they saw.
An elegant $50 o'clock dinner
was served in the Temple by the
ladies of the Eastern Star, and dur
ing the serving of which special
treat" was given the diners by Fred
Day of Eagle Lake who brought
with him eight gallons of the very
best grade" of buttermilk, and 1t is
needless to state that IL was relish
ed by all.
Following the dinner the session
of Sir Galahad Chapter opened and
the degrees were conferred the boys
receiving high prsise for the man
ner in which the work was carried
out. While the chapter has only
been in existence for a short time
each officer and those taking part
in the comforting Of the degrees
have their entire parts OF the rtt-
ual committed to memory and the
impressiveness, exactness and
smoothness with which the cere-
mony was carried -out proved a
great surprise to the guests, all OF
whom were proud of the boys"
and the splendid pogress they have
and are making. That every mem
ber of the chapter is interested was
manifested last night, many of the
Masons witnessing the work for the
first time. Too much praise. cannot
be given to the officers of the chap
ter as we'll as the sponsors who are
equally interested in the progress
of the organization and the ad-
vancement being made by the mem
bers.
At the close of the initiatatory
work brief addresses were made by
a number of the Masons present, all
of which contained high expires
sions of praise for the De Molaians.
Sir Galahad chapter is enjoying a
splendid growth in membership.
The officers have worked long. and
hard in perfecting the ritualistc
work of the order and they more
than proved to the Masons last
night that their. confidence in spon-
soring the members has not been
misplaced but on the contrary mas
been thoroughly appreciated by the
young men,

Jack Martin Talks
Says He Met Some Of Big Men
In Ireland; Has Their
Autographs.

One OF the most interesting ex-
periences to befall Mr.. and Mrs.
Jack Martin of this city on their
recent trip to Ireland was session
of the Dali Eirrean which they at
tended through the good offices of
Eamonn de Valera and Sir Horace
Plunkett, known as two Of the great
and foremost statesmen of all Ire
land. At that session, Mr.. Martin
said today, there was little of in
terest took place other than the us
ual order of routine business but it
was the novelty of seeing the men
who have occupied important pla-
ces in the days news for several
years that made the venture attrac-
tive. There are never more than
forty passes issued for any session
of the Dali and these are taken for
days in advance and it required
considerable maneuvering before
the Martins were allowed in the
star chamber after the regulation
forty adm!ttances were taken
Mr.. Martin said that while he saw
none of the fighting that Is now
going on in various parts of the Free
State, he saw some of the ravages
which are laid at the doors of the
Slack and the Tans and talked with
many who had witnessed scenes of
violence. Mr. Martin is the proud
possessor OF autographs from De
Valera. Sir Plunkett. Michael Col
Inns, Mrs. Mary MacSwiney, Arthur
Griffith and several other of Ire
lands prominent political leaders.

ed to 1,254.6 cases or 8. 1861 car
loads OF 400 cases per car.
Professor Chapman said that the
marketing of eggs through the CO.
operative creameries In car load
lots will tend to do away with an an
nual loss OF seventeen per cent
through detrimental changes in the
course of distribution from producer
TO consumer. Careful packing will
eliminate an annual loss of two
percent of the eggs produced. BY
reducing the cost of shipment of
Minnesota eggs in car lots with but
ter at least two cents per dozen can
be saved. By maintaining the best
quality Of the eggs until they reach
the eastern markets FIVE cents per
dozen over local prices will be real
ized. -.
Value Of Eggs Great.
Mr.. Chapman said that during the
year 1921 there. was produced in
Minnesota a surplus of eggs to total
value of which was $11.S94 POS. By
the conservation of losses another
81. 1868 should have been realized.
Improvement in marketing through
the creameries and cheese factories
should add cents per dozen to the
farm price amounting to $2.634S9
Thus the services of the Coopera-
tive Creameries Association Inc,
may add approximately $3.S01 ,62S
to the annual value OF Minnesota S
surplus eggs.
Fred Hanson, field man for dis
trict No. S, reported that thirty
three of the thirty. eight Co opera
tive 'creameries in the three coun-
ties are now shipping butter in car
load lots and il is proTing a great
success.
II is the plan of the CO. operative
creameries in the counties of Blue
Earth. Waseca and LeSueur 10 start
the shipment OF eggs in car load lots
from the creameries just as soon as
possible. o."
