BAZAAR A SUCCESS

The Bazaar which was held by the
women of Trinity Guild at Hotel
Gladstone last Saturday was most
pronounced success both financially
and socially. 1t is most gratifying to
know that the business people of the
town are cooperating with the Epis-
copal church membership, and assist
ing them in their efforts to re-estab-
lish the church in the new building,
which will be erected on their lot at
the corner of Elm and Fourth Streets.
The band of women who have work
ed in the interests of the Episcopal
church for so many years, under the
name of Trinity Guild, ask the con-
tinued interest and sympathy of the
community, and promise to faithfully
administer that support to the moral
and spiritual welfare of all. We
thank all who so generously assist
ed us Dec 2, both by their gifts and
their patronage, and hope that their
interest in our enterprise may contin-

turned from Detroit where he attend
ed meeting of the National Society
for Vocational Education. Mr.. May
was one of six delegates from Wis
consin. This meeting is one of the
largest of the National Conventions

four-year course leading to de-
gree that this school will be under
the Smith Hughes Vocational Act.
Professor Livingston Porter of
New York University spoke to the
students on Wednesday morning on
behalf of the European Student Re-
lief Fund. He gave a very vivid pic
ture of conditions as they exist in
European colleges and Normal
schools, especially those of Eastern
Europe, where students attend school
under conditions which are almost
unbelievably bad. President Ames
is asking the Normal school students
to fore-go some luxury or entertain
ment and make this contribution to
the Relief Fund Professor Porter
spent his boyhood days in Czechoslo-
vakia and hence knows at first hand
about the conditions there.
Miss Howell, who went to the hos
pital last week with an attack of APP
pendicitis, expects to be back in
school next Monday.
President Ames and Professor Kar-
ges expect to go to Milwaukee Friday
where they will attend conference

Older Boys Conference

The twentieth annual Older Boys
Conference under the auspices of the
Wisconsin State Young Mems Chris
tan Association has just come to a
close. 1t was held at Lacrosse, on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 1
2 and 3. River Falls had the distinc-
ton of being represented by a dele
cation of twenty-six older boys and
young men. These fellows went as
representatives from the Normal y.
NJ C. A.. and the Sunday schools of
the Methodist and Congregational
churches.
1t was a great conference and a
great experience for the boys. About
six hundred boys and young men were
in attendance, coming from every cor
ner of the state. The program GEN.
tered around the theme, For their
sakes." Speakers were drawn not
only from our state but from the
country at large and even from for
eign countries. 1t was time of new
experiences, the making of new
friends of the best kind, and the
forming of new resolutions for life.
On the homeward trip our boys were
asked the question, 'Was the confer
ence worth the price," and such an
swers as the following were received:
Eyes, it certainly was worth the
price and a great deal more," ITO
me, the conference was worth double
the price," "From the inspiration
which received, should say that it
was worth the price," etc.
Next Sunday evening at o'clock
at the Normal Auditorium, the boys
who went are going to try to bring
to the people of River Falls some
thing of the spirit of that conference.
1t will be a union service and anyone
interested in boys at their best is cor
daily invited to be present.

The work of the st. CIoiX County
Agent and the Farm Bureau commit
tee on limestone grinding eliminated
at meeting at Hudson where an out
side operator agreed to move his
crushing outfit into st. Croix county
and to grind limestone for 1925 per
ton. An extra charge of ten cents
per ton will be made, to be paid to
quarry owners for their stone. TIE
machine will first set 1p at the E. c.
Francois quarry, northeast of New
Richmond on the old Mcdonald farm,
where orders are now taken for about
so tons. 1t will probably move to

towards RiveraFalls. Other st. Croix
county communities can get the bene-
fits of this crusher by locating a
suitable quarry and then pooling or
ders for 800 tons or more of crushed
stone. Since the County Agents of

The Soldier
Takes His Rest
Gin memory of n. n. Fuller)

y
The hill is chill in November,
The clustered oaks are brown;
All quietly | rameinber
The scar leaves dIifted down.
They whisper a faint caressing
To winters troubled breast,
And under their promised blessing
The soldier seeks his rest.
Not his in the fiery torrent
To strike and nobly fall,
Though long in the charge abhorTent
He leaped to the buele call.
But ripe in his autumn splendor,
Still mellowing toward the west,
True type of the old defender,
The soldier takes his rest.
In the blue they wore together
His comrades seek the staff,
And all in the lonesome weather
Run up the flag at half;
While out of the hill before us
And under the Greenwood crest
Hank, bark! the infinite chorus
AS the soldier sinks to rest.
The chorus that sings of duty
Unmixed of ease or fear,
And the stem relentless beauty
That dwells with the pioneer,
The chastened cry of nation,
Half smothered, half confessed,
In a solemn, sweet ovation
AS the soldier takes his rest.
Half smothered beneath her yeainlng
For peace where peace 1t not
Yet the Joy of peace returning
Is Joy that he has brought;
And the hope of peace prevailing
more shame it be confessedD
Is the sum of his stern availing-
The soldier. Give him rest.
The hill is chill in November,
The leaves have run their race;
But vividly remember
Sweet April's Easter grace;
And vividly Pm recalling.
A promise pure and blest;
For the fearless leaves are falling
AS the soldier takes his rest.
