FIRST LEGION BASKET BALL -.
- GAME ON NEXT TUESDAY
Legionnaires to Open Basket Ball
Season With Home Game
Against Clara City ..~...-

Now that foot ball season is nearly
over, all thoughts are turned to-. the
popular winter sport-basket ball.
Fans will have chance to see two
real good teams in action this year,
the high school and the Legion. 1t is
probable that the Legion will organ
ize two teams this year as they have
such an abundance of excellent ma
terial to pick from.
The first Legion basket ball game
will be played on next Tuesday ev-
ening, Dec. 5th, at the high school
gymnasium. Clara City has very
strong team this year and this game
should be a good one. s.4 p
It is not absolutely certain if Clara
City will play here on Tuesday but
if they do not, a game with Paynes-
vile will be arranged. Ill !. = 4. &.

THAT, we sincerely regret and de-
plore the present state of affairs that
exists in our city. While we fully

approve or endorse any action of the
men in refusing to peacefully allow
other workmen to take their places
with the Railroad Company-if dis
satisfied and unwilling to continue
working themselves, and must de-
nounce any attempt at intimidation

many Of the men in the shops had
remained faithful and true to the
corporation. For this loyal attitude
the city of st. Cloud has been pre-
sented with two complete railroad
shops, said Supt. Frogner. ## ..=@s
~ Mr.. Frogner then described the
colnpany's agreement with the re
placement men now at work on the
system. A. These agreements are

Mr.. Frogner declared that the re-
placement men are improving rapidly
in their work. The company has
made no overtures of any kind to
the strikers since July 18th and will
not make any, said Mr.. Frogher.
There is no possibility said Mr.. Frog
ner that the men now out on strike
will be taken back in a body.
Regarding the painting of the word
"scab" with yellow paint on certain
residences in Willmar, Mr.. Frogne er
declared that the matter would be
investigated and the offenders dealt
with according to law.
Mr.. Frogner concluded by stating
that the matter was now up to the
business men to decide.
Mr.. Scion Benton offered remarks
on the attitude of business men to the
railroads and pleaded for a better
spirit and cooperation between them:
He declared that striker and strike
breaker should be treated alike as
respectable American citizens and of
good character.
Someone in the audience then
arose and invoked all powers that be
to force the alleged disobedient city
administration to reform it's ways.
This was solemnly echoed by Mr.. G.
A. Erickson who prayerfully added a
hearty "Amen," heard very distinct
ly thruout the room.
Mr.. Hong then suggested a set of
resolutions embodying the attitude
of the merchants of Willmar to the

Of BLANKETS
New Washing Machine Makes
Hitherto Tedious Task a

Now's the time to wash and put
away winter blankets in fluffy stacks
on the linen closet shelf or in the
depths OF a grandmother chest.
Blanket washing Is not bugaboo
for the modern housckeeper with her
electric washing machine, which SO
considerably reduces the labor OF
hand washing and the cost OF send
ing the winter bedclothes to pro-
fessional for expensive cleaning.
Machine washing Is by all ODDS the
best way to wash blankets because OF
It's power to force the suds through
the fiber without the harsh rubbing
so Injurious to woolen fabrics. As a
labor saver, the machine eliminates
all the strain on back and arms OF
lifting heavy, water-clogged blan-
keta. To wash them electrically:
I. Keep the temperature for both
washing and rinsing warm TO medium
hot, never above 110 degrees Fahren-
heit.
2. Use a neutral soap in either
flake or jelly form. so that II Will

can be made with one cake OF soap
In two quarts of water.
3. Fill the tub up to the water line
with water and put in two cupfuls OF
the prepared soap Jelly.
4. Let the machine run for two or
three minutes to whip up good'
stiff suds.
s. Wash one blanket at a time II
the blankets are double; II single,
two together. The load is a correct
one when the blankets move freely
without the water splashing too
vigorously.

the washing period. longer II neces.

When adjusted correctly you can

s. Though the wash water may
look dark, do not discard after the
first few blankets are washed. The
water Is still good as a dirt solvent
and only needs the addition Of more
soap.
8. The temperature OF the rinse
water should be as nearly as possible

10. Do not use clear, soapless
water for rinsing. This may sound
like hearsay, but has a good reason.

the secrets of restoring the fluffy
