There Is No Hell.

Huorah, hoOroO, there is no hell,
We need no longer dread;
Sir Conan says in spirit land
The bad are put to bed.
No matter if we steal and drink.
And smoke and cheat and curse
When we wake up beyond the grave
Wen say, Good morning, nurse!'
A cool, sweet lady, all in white,
Will soothe our guilty fear,
And say You're merely sick, poor
soul
There is no devil, dear"
We know that over red-hot Goals
We ought to burn and stew;
Instead of that we will be fed
On spirit cake and dew.
No imp will stick his pitchfork sharp
Right through our sin-stained hide;
On razor blades and burning rails
We will not have to ride.
Yet in our new-fOund happiness
Is still one single woe
If there's no hot, old-fashiOned he'll.
Where do bOmb-thrOWers go?

poSt0ffice Ditties,

The Lancaster postal clerks and
city letter carriers have sat up nights
to contribute these bright gems OF
thought on pertinent subject:
IT'S sweet to love, but don't you hate
TO get his" present two days late?
If you've a special Christmas message
for your grille,
Say it with anything you like-but say
it early!
Blunders of the past remind us
We should stop and mail out snappy,
And, departing, leave behind us
III the store and mail clerks happy.
There was a girl in our town whose
brain was far from dead;
Her Christmas shopping all was done
two weeks or so ahead.
And to the r. 0. forthwith she flew
with might and main.
And mailed her presents days ahead
Believe me, that's some Jane.

attraction on the screen. The produc-

many cities in which it has been
shown and the people of Princeton

MaSOns Attend in ROdv

The local Masonic lodge members
attended special st. Johns Day SER
vices at the M. E. church Sunday even
ing. They gathered at the lodge hall
and marched to the church in a body.
Rev. S. A. Lumb, local pastor of the
M. p. congregation preached the SER
mon. There was special music by the
orchestra.
AS St. John, the evangelist, is one
OF the patron saints of Free-masonarv.
DR.. Lumb gave a brief sketch of his
life as recorded in the Bible, showing
how he had learned to subdue his pas
sions and to improve himself.
I'm his early life, John," said Rev.
Lumb, "was not necessarily lovable,
but potentially detestable and actually
disagreeable. He was headstrong,
pettish, vain; typical mother-spoilt
boy. However, his evening beautifully
belied his morning. The sunset of his
life proved to be saint-hood.
"He, who had his mother seek first
place for him, came to give the mother
OF Jesus first place in his life. The
one who wanted to call down fire from
heaven to consume the Samaritans
who closed the gates of their city
against Christ, grew so in self-re-
straint that though he personally exc
Grated Judas 1scariot, he met him con-
tinually in brotherly way, hoping
against hope that he might ultimately
be turned from his evil way and open
the gate of his heart for the admit
tance of Jesus.
''This man who, in his early life,
forbade one doing good works in the
name of the Lord Jesus, because he be-
longed not to his clique, wrote an epis-
tie exhorting love for one another of
all men. Saying none could love God
who loved not man.
$50 vain and self-conscious was
John when we first meet him that he
himself asked Of Jesus Christ the right
hand seat to His throne in His king
dom. But so wonderfully does he
grow in grace that he pens a whole
gospel without once mentioning his
own name. Hiding under anonymity
as: "The deciple whom Jesus loved'."

NOON LUNCHEONS
NEW FEATURE
Continued from page y

and it's general equipment as added,
it is the belief of the board that the
state will reimburse the armory
board in it's expenditures. A commit
tee consisting of VIM. C. Doane and
Fred Newton was named to investi-
gate the matter. This committee was
also instructed to look after such
legislation as would need attention
during the coming session of the state
lawmakers.
Archie Jones, manager of the
Princeton Cooperative creamery, was
present and called attention to the
fact that the new creamery would
soon be ready for use and that plans
were in the forming for dedication ex-
ercises. No date had yet been select
ed for the big event but it was thought
that all work would be completed by
the first part of January. This build
ing is one of the finest creameries in
this section of Minnesota and ranks
with the best in the state. The club
endorsed Mr.. Jones' remarks and as
sured him Of loyal support in making
the dedication event success.
Another important matter which
has had the attention of the club and
will likely require still greater con-
sideration is the hard-surfacing of the
Scenic highway. There has been some
talk that the highway from Elk River
to Grand Rapids may receive consider
alton this coming year. Should the
hard-surfacing or paving be institut-
ed along this section next year chances
are that the entire route would not be
attempted at one time. Demonstration
meetings endorsing the plan have al
ready been held in a number of the
towns north of this place and it is
quite evident that when the time ap-
proaches for the work to begin
other towns will hold like events.
Princeton will not be backward when
the time is ripe to do it's share in
helping along the good roads move
ment. The club endorsed the good
work of Chas. M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, and will continue
to support him in his untiring efforts
in placing Minnesota on the map as
one of the leading good roads states in
the union.
Several other matters of Importance
were up for discussion which enter
tanned the members until late hour.

Mr.. Kahn said attorneys for the
power company and the nitrate
corporation had advised him they
would insist that the government
discharge the obligations 1t had
assumed when contracts for the
construction of the two units were
executed with war department Of
ficials and options given their
clients for exclusive purchase for
the two plants in the event the
government ever decided to sell
them. Under their separate warn
ings that they would refuse to sub
NIT to the disposition of the prop
critics to Mr.. Ford and would bat
tie for their rights from the low
est to the highest courts, Mr.. Kahn
said he was unable to see how the
government could enter into the
agreement proposed by Mr., Ford to
the extent of delivering the plants
to him for immediate development
or for future operation if the
courts upheld the power company
and the nitrate corporation in the
flnal decision.

Mr.. Mayo revealed that 1t was
Mr.. Ford's intention to begin work

taken there could be no assurance
that the legal problems could be
