CARDINAL LAURENT

Known to Have Approval Of at
 Least 80 in Sacred College

Rome, Jan. 31.-(By the Associated
 Prcss) Interest in the choice of a successor to Pope Benedict is increas- l ing as the time draws near for as bling of the Sacred conclave anG
 many attempts to find an indication oi the result are being made.
 Cardinal Laurent. secretary of the Icongrceaton of the propaganda, al | though raised to the purple only last year, is understood to be favored by at least 30 members of the Sacred ment with the Italian government. At the same time he is said to be ac- ceptablc to those opposed to closer relations with the Quirinal.
 The name of Cardinal Ratti, arch bishop of Milan mentioned previously as favored by the "peace' group headed by Cardinal Gasparri, is not heard so often now and the section headed by Merry del Val which had been credited with favoring Cardinal Mafi, archbishop of Pisa, is reported as ready for compromise before the balloting begins.
 Several cardinals including Bourne, arch bishop of Westminster, visited the conclave quarters after the solemn requiem mass in the Sistine chapel yesterday. Cardinal Bourne appeared especially anxious lest in the drawing of lots he be assigned to rooms on the top floor.
 "The elevator does not appear 10 be working reliably; l hope young men like you are selected by fate to oc- cupy the upper stories he remarked to Cardinal Nannutelh, dean of the Sacred College who is S5 years of age,

FORTUNE HOUSE RANSACKED


The West Side home of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Fortune, who are spend
ing the winter in Florida, was thor
Cughly ransacked by someone one
night last week. The prowler or
providers visited every room in the
house and delved into every nook and
corner. Floors in all the rooms were
strewn with matches which the in
truder had used to light his way. He
married many articles of furniture by
scratching matches upon the smooth
surface of mahogany and other piec-
es.
The invasion was discovered Sun
day night by DR.. Fortune, but the
Doctor will not be able to check up
on whatever may be stolen until he
hears from his parents.
Access to the house was evidently
gained by the use of skeleton key
as all windows and doors were found
to be closed and locked Sunday night

From the National Commander
The following is a message from

ali ex-servlce men should read:
"You fellows who are out getting
our buddies to join the American

the strength Of the Legion is IA the
Posts, and your Post will be lust as
strong as you make it.
'sThe American Legion is not at

every man who was in the service
owes it to his less fortunate buddies,
who are still living the war in the
hospitals; blind, manned and broken
in health, to join the Legion and fight
for them, for if we don't take care
of them, who is going to? We have
got to stick together if we are going
to accomplish proper legislation to
take care of them and to get adjusted
compensation for all ex-service men.
"The Legion is the great organi-
cation of ex-service men accepted for
better or worse by the nation, who
look to the Legion as the expression
Of the veterans Of the Great War. If
we don't all agree with its present
program we must all get in and work
to keep it straight. It is big going

by standing on the outside.
"Ten years from now the Legion
is going to mean so much to these
men that they can't afford To- weals

million other fellows all plugging to-

LAKE FISHING

The following Item appeared in last
weeks Prescott Tribune:
Owing to some misunderstanding
n regard to the oren fishing sea-
son, Chas. Stapf requests US to an
nounce that there is no closed season
on the st. Croix between Saltwater
and Prescott except sturgeon, trout
and bass. All other fish can be
caught at any time. This also ap,
plies to the Mississippi river here.
However, he says, no one is allowed
to take more than twenty pounds Of
fish to be offered for sale in e. week.
Parties catching fish for market
should be governed accordingly and
rot get tangled up in the meshes of
the law, for game wardens are on the
Job and violators are liable to be
picked up when they least expect it.

TAX PAYERS NOTICE

The tax receipts as issued in the

state tax and part under town tax.
In the town of Marteli, for instance,
the total state tax levied was S3,710.-

What's Being Done

A majority of the ex-service men
of this community are in one way or
another somewhat familiar with diff
ferent phases of the work which this
Post of the American Legion is en-
gagged in, but it is doubtful if the
full extent or wide range of this work
is generally known.
The office Of Albert Harvey
Fletcher Post has in various ways
assisted ex-service men of this COM
nlunity in over four hundred instan-
ces-back pay, state bonus, insur-
ance transfers, travel pay, lost
discharge certificates, business COR
respondence, ETC.. etc., besides tbs
regular work connected with Legior
business, which directly or indirectly
affects all ex-service men The Post
officials are doing their part te
boost the organization to a position
where it will be recognized as pow
er in the community and the state.
Every ex-service man should give at
least the encouragement of his mem
bership. If you are already mem
her, get another ex-service man to
come in-send or hand him a mem
bership application blank and get
him to sign up, today. If you are
not member, get an application
blank from the adjutant or some
other member and sign up, today.
