Another Fire.

The fire department was called out
about 7 o'clock on Monday to ex-
tinguish a blaze which had started
from an unknown cause in the store
room on the second floor of S. r.
Jones' house. The blaze was ex-
tinguished by chemicals but not until
considerable damage was done by
the smoke, chemicals and water.
The family lost numerous pieces of
wearing apparel besides the damage
done generally to the household ef-
fects and building At present the
Jones family is residing at the home
of Mr.. Jones' brother, A. M. Jones,
until the house is repaired. Work
will begin next week.
The family was not at home at the
time the fire broke out and it's origin
remains mystery. 1t may have been
caused by defective wiring.
The Princeton Fire company is de-
serving of much credit for it's prompt
response to the call. In less than 10
minutes after the alarm was sounded,
the men had the hose attached and
their ladders erected.
The company has made a splendid
record during the past four years, con-
sidering the equipment In the last
four years it has lost just one build
ing, Alfonso Howard's residence. One
of the state fire inspectors who recent
ly visited. the village stated that our
men had made the best record, con-
sidering their equipment, Of any VOL
unteer company in the state.

LEGION ELECTS
POST OFFICERS
Oscar Wikeen is Chosen as Comman
der of Fremont Woodc0ck Post
-se For Ensuing Year.
OYSTER SUPPER SERVED
Legion Auxiliary Re-elects Mrs. NAL
iette as President; Mrs. O. J.
Odegard Vice President.

The members of Fremont Woodcock
post and the legion auxiliary met for
the annual election Of officers on last
Thursday evening. The business ses-
slons were followed by joint social
meeting.
The legion elected the following Of
ficers: Oscar Wikeen, commander;
Odin Odegard and Arvie Lindstrum,
vice commander; VIM. Roos, financial
officer who acts as treasurer; and
Lee Sanford, chaplain. The adjutant,
who acts as secretary, is appointed by
the commander and will be named by
Mr.. Wikeen shortly. At present R. O.
Berg is adjutant.
The local post has enjoyed a strong
and active membership during the
past year. The legion men have taken
an active interest in several of our
important civic projects as the ar
rangement Of the Memorial day exer-
cises and the observance of education
al week. They also gave this COM
munity one of the most pleasing en-
tertainments that has been. produced
in the village during the past year,
the legion carnival.
This year the legion made no at
tempt to arrange for Fourth Of July
celebration, as it was generally con-
ceeded in was only fair to occasionally
leave the field open to some of the
neighboring communities. This COM
ing year the boys will undoubtedly
make plans for celebration in
Princeton. With all due modesty, it
must be stated that when this village
attempts such a program it is worth
attending.
The legion auxiliary elected the fol-
lowing officers: Mrs. M. M. Mallette,
president; Mrs. Odin Odegard, vice
PRESIDENT; Mrs. AL. Escherich, secre-
tary; and Mrs. E. K. Evens, treasurer.
The president read a report of the
work that had been accomplished by
the auxiliary during the past year.
The members of the organization have
been most active and have made a
splendid record, a summary of which
will appear at later date. At
Thanksgiving time the auxiliary men,
bers filled six bags for distribution
among ex-service men who are in hos
pitals. These bags were held by the
officers Of the state organization to
be sent as Christmas gifts. They
contained numerous small articles as
buttons, thread, shaving soap, cards
and handkerchiefs. At Christmas
time the auxiliary packed three boxes
which were sent to Thomas hospital.
These also contained numerous small
articles as handkerchiefs, knives and
cards and many useful garments as
socks and pajamas. Besides respond
ing most generously to the call of the
state organization, the auxiliary sent
Christmas gift to every disabled ex-

ira and played some "snappy" music
during the evening.
The occasion last evening is an an
nual event with the two lodges
and is most enjoyable function.
However, several times during the
winter months the families of both
orders gather at the lodge hall for en-
joyment in various kinds of social en-
tertainment. Occasions like these are
worthy of recognition and form part
of the happy and pleasure side of life
in our little city.
