H. M. NOACK OF ARLINGTON
SENDS A $100 CHECK.
PLAN PLAY.

Last Wednesday evening the differ
ent subcommittee and others in
terested in raising New Ulm's quota for
the $3,0O0,O00 German Child Feeding
Fund had their final meeting at Turner
Hall, when reports were read of the
monies collected by The various sub
committees. When it was ANNOUNCED
by the chairman that the total moneys
collected aggregated the sum Of ST.
272.65, there was general satisfaction
all around, because this was larger
amount than had been hoped for.
Increased to Nearly $14op.
Since the committees completed the +
work, Mayor l., A. Fritsche has re-
ceived a 500 check from H. M. .Noack
of Arlington; $22 from A. C. Ochs Of
Springfield, and a number of smaller
amounts from local people, making the
grand total about $1,400. This is
very gratifying.
Without exception, the committees
reported that they were very well re-
ceived wherever they called, and were
we'll satisfied with the m oneys donated,
if it is considered that quite number
of people are out of work and so many
have enough to do to meet their own
obligations.
Names Will be Published.
It was decided to publish the names
of the donors in the Neau U1m Post
and this will be done as soon as the
lists are in the; hands of Di. L. A.
Fritsche, treasurer of the committee.
This may take week or two. In th-
meantime those who have not been
seen, may make such contributions as
they desire, leaving the money with
the treasurer.
&5 Local Talent Preferred.
In some Of the earlier sessions the
advisability of having a so-called
s'Volksfest'' in the month of February
was discussed at various times. At
Wednesdays meeting, Albert Stein
hauser reported that he was in receipt
of letter from Arthur Schaubscf St.
Paul, to the effect that the St. Paul
Theatre troupe, who are now assisted
by two professional actors of Chicago,
desires to come to New Ulm and stage
two plays February 5 and suggested
that possibly ':Volksfest" should be
arranged for that day to wind UP with
the German play in the evening. The
consensus of opinion seemed to be,
however, that it would be much better
to have those two actors come to New
Ulm and train in local talent, and Mr..
Steinhauser was directed to secure
further information. 4
Quite a number of correspondence
were read by Chairman Athanas Henle,
pertaining to financial support for
certain institutions and certain pur-
poses. 1t was decided, however, to do
nothing about these appeals for aid
and ,confnes the work Of the committee
to raising funds for. the, $4,000
drive. A vote Of thanks was given the
New 4Ulm TurnYerein for placing the
Hall at the, disposal Of the committee
for meeting purposes.
Mayor Entertains Committee.
Before the meeting adjourned, Dr.
Fritsche made brief address in which
he thanked those who had taken part
in the drive and then invited them to q
cup of coffee and little lunch at his
home on South German street, which
invitation was most heartily accepted
It goes without saying that the com
mittee was most royalty entertained a,
the Fritsche home and it was quite lat
when they finally departed.

mittee and others interested in thl
