State Versus Moonshiner

The mock trial which will be put
on by the Alberta Community club
at the school auditorium in Alberta,
December 9, will probably attract a
large crowd because of the promi-
nence of the parties on the program
and the up-to-dateness of the case.
The state will attempt to imprison
for a long term of hard work, John
Doe, who is accused Of violating the
Volstead enforcement act.
A brilliant array of talent has been
secured to aid or prosecute Mr.. Doe.
Z. C. Schlattman assisted by Prof.
Denning will appear as lawyers for
the state, while their logic and legal
phrases will be opposed by L. P. Nor
by and Edna Ormond for the defend
ant. L. J. Schlattman will act as
judge, Wesley Ernst as sheriff, Miss
Hammond as clerk of court and Miss
SeneschaI as court reporter.
The case will call for a jury and
will start promptly at eight o'clock in
order to give them time to finish the
ordeal.

FIax Good Crop For ,2s

Farm crops men OF the university
belive that flax will be a good crop
to grow next year. Relatively high
prices are being paid for fax. Sew
eral year ago it usually sold at only
80 to SO cents bushel above the
price OF wheat. Just now 1t is
quoted around 50 a bushel, or about
twice the price of wheat. Improved
business and industrial conditions
have helped to keep the price OF fax
seed on substantial basis. Prof.
A. G. Army, who is in charge of the
farm crops section of the university
recommends that wilt-resistant fax
seed be saved for planting on old
land. Some other variety can be

Over Rough Roads To Helm

A long, hard, rough ride of ten
miles of country road and six miles
of gravel was necessary Saturday
night when Miss Mildred Smith,
county nurse, tried to get to the home
of Peter Braun, ten miles south Of
Chokio to help relieve the sufferings
of their three months old twin ba-
bies. The two children have not
been in the best of health since birth
and on Saturday night when they
were both in the throes of convul-
sions doctor from Appleton was try
ing to struggle his way through, the
Brauns telephoned to Alberta where
the county nurse was at program
that night, asking for help.
Theodore Rentz, brother-in-law Of
Peter Braun, made ready his Ford
and with Henry Braun as mechanic
started out with the nurse for the
farm home. Ten miles south Of Cho-
kio had to be travelled in low gear,
humping, sliding, lurching, slowly
getting nearer. Several times the
insulation on the wires wore away
due to friction and the weaving OF
the frame. Here Henry Braun came
into use and the trouble patched up,
About midnight they arrived, also the
doctor, with about two hundred yards
OF barbed wire hanging on to the rear
axle Of his car, where he had gone
into the ditch or along the banks
in order to find easier going.
All stayed the rest Of the night
and Miss Smith was taken to Chokic
Monday morning and took the trair
for Morris. At last accounts, the
twins were improving.
