COULD HAVE RESIGNED
SHERIFF

-Des Moines, Ia, Jan. lS:-The Rev.
W. E. Robb, sheriff Of Polk county,
has resigned his pastorate at the Ur-
bandale Federated church because, he
said, he does not wish the church to be
subjected to criticism when he hangs
two murderers this Spring.
s''I will Have to hang Orrie Gross and
Eugene Weeks in April and May,'
Robb said. ''I do not feel that
should be a regular pastor when I, do
this as [ would subject my church to
too much criticism. - "
'However, I must do my duty as
sheriff and hang these men and con-
sequently I have resigned from the
church.
"Another reason is that I cannot do
justice to both my church and my pub
lie duty. Many times I work all night
Saturday and am too worn. out to
preach on Sunday.'

THE COLLINS LECTURE

Peter W. Collins of Boston, the man
who has answered million questions,
will arrive in Little Falls on Monday,
January 80, to deliver, under the aus
pices of the Little Falls Council,
knights of Columbus, his lecture
"What's Wrong With the World9'
The lecture will be held on that date
at the K. C. hall ~on Broadway, be-
ginning at 8 O'Clock.
AS an anti-radicalism lecturer, cam
paigning under the direction Of the f.
Of G. Supreme Board Of Directors for
the past decade, Collins has established
the worlds record for answering cues.
tions in the open forums, always held
at the conclusion Of his lectures. The
lecture will be entirely free to the
public and any Of Mr.. Collin 3 hearers
is entitled. to ask whatever question
he or she deems pertinent to the SUI
ject of the lecture.
Mr.. Collins is one of a corps of ex-
perts in the sociological and economic
field carrying an educational campaign
under the auspices Of the K. of G. He
is one Of the best equipped authorities
on industrial relations in America,
having served for years as trade un-
ion official. In 1917, the U. s. govern.
ment enlisted Collins as one of it's in
dustrial experts and in 1913, he under
took the direction on the K. of G. re,
construction and employment system
which found jobs in civilian life fol-
more than 100000 former service men
without a cent of cost to either EN-.
plOVed or emDlOver, r ~.
In his lecture Mr.. Collins will = dea]
with the potentialities for social dis
orders in~the world, and especially in
America today, and define the forces
that can successfully counteraet the
organized effort to disrupt the present
social status. His experience as La;
Dor leader has equipped him with ar
intimate knowledge of the labor side
of industrial disputes and his profes
sional contact with employers enables
him to understand thoroughly Their
viewpoint.
Wherever Mr.. Collins has lectured
during his years of service with the
K. of c., press and public Of all poll
tics and creeds have agreed that his
message of common sense in capital
and labor disputes has contributed
largely to a clear understanding Of the
multiple industrial and economic prob
lens that confront the world today.

CALL IN FIRE
MRS. JOHN DOLNEY AND 3 CHIL,
DREN ESCAPE FLAMES IN
.-"> NIGHTCI,OTHES

Mrs. John Dolney and three children
narrowly escaped being trapped in a
fire which practically destroyed their
home at 406 Eighth avenue southeast
early Wednesday morning. When Mrs.
Dolney was awakened by the smell of
smoke, the fire had gained much head
way and it was with great difficulty
that she. succeeded in getting her fam.
lily out safely. In order to do this
she had to put her little baby on the
ground outside while she rescued the
others. Mr.. Dolney was out of town.
The fire started from stove pipe
passing through partition, it is
thought.
The fire alarm was sent in at 2:45
a. NJ, and the truck> crew responded
Immediately. Some of the furniture
was saved but the house is practically
a total loss. Sub-zero weather made
fire fighting difficult.>. Three houses
were close by and it took a good deal
Of effort to keep them from tie fire.
Mrs. Joe; Wegertseder, a neighbor,
served hot coffee and sandwiches to the
fremen, which was very much appre-
ciated.

Wednesday morning at 1920, the
truck crew was called to the Leader
store for a blaze in the basement.
The fire was confined to the wrappings
of the steam pipes leading from the
furnace and was caused by lack of
water in the boiler, resulting in over
heating, which ignited the pipe wrap
ping. The main damage was to the
furnace itself, some Of the sections
cracking.
