Princeton Town Meeting Held at TIL.
Armory Tuesday With Large

MANY WOMEN CAST VOTES

rounding Princeton.

An exceptionally large number Of
farmers were in attendance at the
armory upon the occasion of the an
nual town meeting on Tuesday after
noon to vote upon the various mat
tiers requiring attention which come
up for consideration at such meetings.
Albert Hoehn acted in the capacity Of
moderator. Shortly after l o'clock he
called the meeting to order and the
following business was disposed Of:
Clerk August F. Meyer informed
the asscmblage that the town board
had voted to reduce the compensation
of township officers so cents per day.
To question put by the moderator
whether poundmaster should be
elected or not, the sentiment prevailed
that every farmer should act as his
own poundmaster, and a motion car
ried to that effect. -
It was, on motion, decided to let the
bulletin boards remain where they
are-one at Boyn's, one at the old
Coates corner, one at Long Siding
and one at Frank Stahnke's corner.
A motion prevailed that in future
only iron guide posts be used and that
the town board designate the points
at which they shall be located. 4
Clerk August Meyer then read the
report Of the auditing board and the
financial statement for the past year,
which were adopted by unanimous
vote. In brief form the clerks inan-
cial statement is hereunder given:

THE JUNIOR PLAY.
Members of Junior Glass Present
Three-Act Comedy in High
School Auditorium.

School Auditorium.
The members of the junior class last
Friday evening presented a three-act
comedy, screen Stockings" to large
audience in the high school audito-
rum.
The music was furnished by the
high school orchestra under the direc-
ton of Miss Marguerite Snyder. Miss
Snyder and her orchestra contribute
much to the success of nearly every
entertainment that is given here.
The comedy was we'll presented.
Mildred Newton as Celia Faraday
handled the leading role admirably,
Her acting was especially pleasing be-
cause it was absolutely free from the
nervous affectation that frequently
characterizes an amateur production.
Donna Wilkes was sweet and attrac-
tive as the younger sister, Phyllis.
Helen King, Barbara Hartman and
Lillian Wergin also handled their roles
very we'll. Aunt Ida's makeup was
most complete and it required some
skill on the part Of the young actress
not to everyday the role. Lady
Trenchard certainly gave the audience
a thrill with her scream when she
discovered the death notice of Colonel
Smith. At that point the dramatic
interest in the play became most in
tense.
All Of the boys played their parts
we'll although they were in general not
as free and easy as the girls. John
Dugan and Roe Sanford carried of
their added years easily and cleverly
maintained fatherly, dignifed atti.
tude. Fred Townsend made staid
| dignifed butler. To Clement San.
ford, Everett Walker and Jordan Cor:
teau fell the rather difficult role Of
the ardent sutton. -
All the members of the cast ant
those who directed the play, Miss
Marguerite Snyder, Miss Jean Nc
Donald and Mr.. Ames should be con
graduated on the success of the pro
duction. ,.

Class Meets With Clothing Specials,

Class Meets With Clothing Specialist.
The representatives Of the Prince
ton and Greenbush farm bureau units
met on Tuesday afternoon with the
clothing specialist from the State
Farm school, Miss Inez Hobart, at the
home Of Mrs. William Wehrend.
The class is progressing rapidly. A
model for each member was con
structed Tuesday. Some of the ladies
have been questioned closely in regard
TO the nature Of the objects they were
carrying with them when they re-
turned to town Tuesday evening. But
just wait until the warm spring days
come and the members Of the sewing
class appear in the most fetching
gowns; then there will be wild rush
for models. >s. h.. .-,
Anyone who is interested in the
dress making proposition and would
care to make arrangements to secure
a model for herself should commune
cate with Mrs. Walter Mark. If she
will send Mrs. Mark one dollar and her
bust measure, material will be pur-
chased for her so she too will be able
to commence work with the class. It
is desirable to have a large number
of orders for material placed at one
time because lower rates can then be
obtained. The ladies who are receiv-
ing instruction from Miss Hobert will
direct the work Of these second classes
that are organized. ,.s5s~-,. /:

Notwithstanding the restricted i'm

cd States is obtaining new citizens at
the rate of about 700 month, accord.

enacted by congress during the war
which permitted all aliens in the

without the necessary five-years'

ASSOclatlOn.E{as 81
a Red Cross program was present
ed at the meeting Of the Parent Teach
er association held in the high school
auditorium on Tuesday evening.
The meeting was called to order by
the president, E. =. Mcmillan. The
program opened with community sing
ing led by Mr.. Ames and Miss Mar
guerite Snyder. The second number
was a tableaux by the children of the
lower grades illustrating the various
phases Of the Red Cross work. In one
group were our war veterans, mem
bers Of the army and navy, while
nearby was doctor, nurse and a
group Of mothers conducting baby
clinic. sz st. 4 A3s52 y. . Ss
The sixth grade sang a health song.
Miss Johanson, superintendent Of
Red Cross nurses in the state, de-
|livered an interesting address on the
growth Of the organization and the
scope of it's work. She stated the
public health program which the Red
Cross is conducting today really origi-
mated with the work Of Florence
Nightingale. The Red Cross, Miss
Johanson stated, always stands ready
to render assistance in an emergency.
The emergency now is the aftermath
Of the war. ..s ss
In referring to the work Of the
county Red Cross nurse, Miss Johanson
said she was supposed to devote the
greater part-of her time to healthedu-
Icational work. The nurse should make
the children in the schools familiar
with the principles Of health.
Miss Sheridan, educational super
visor Of the state board Of health
made brief address. She emphasized
the need of providing wholesome
amusement for our boys and girls,
Especially in our small towns where
there frequently is little recreation in
]any form. .s
T At the conclusion Of the program
Mr.. Mcmillan made few remarks
A cordial invitation is extended to
l|anyone interested in the work Of the
association to become member OF
the organization. - .-.

state highway commissioner, this

Mlnnesota's good roads program.
Bids totaling $758,o0O, against en-
gineers' estimates Of $1,02o,0oo, were
accepted on thirteen projects, includ-
ing nearly rs miles of grading, three
OF paving and nine Of bridges. Grad
ing was bid as low as II cents a cubic
yard and other figures were low in
proportion-the best in ten years on
many tens. The small paving project
was let at 1874 sd yard on a
cheaper type of pavement made at a
recent county competition on a larger
Job. The split-cent price is the low
est on record in Minnesota.
In view Of the bargain prices now
offered, both, Commissioner Babcock
and John II. Mullen, deputy commits.
sioner and chief highway engineer,
expressed regret that available money
for trunk highway work this year will
not allow the state to take special adj
vantage Of unusually favorable condi-
lions for extending the highway bet
terment plans. Mr.. Mullen said, how
ever, that county reimbursement bond
interest and other deductions will cut
the total below the 1921 fund. But the
highway department will use every ef.
fort to spread improvements, he add

ments. ss .@== &.
