Father Flanagan's Boys
Give Fine Program
Large Audience at Armory Last;
Friday Evening-Work and OBJ
ject of Home

The entertainment given by Father
Flanagan's boys of Omaha in the
Armory Friday evening of last week,
was enjoyed by a large audience.
The short address by Father Flana-
gan, head of the institution, gave those
in attendance a definite idea of the
Home and what it aimed to accomplish
It is absolutely non sectarian and is
opened to homeless waits, regardless
of creed or color. Father Flanagan had
dreamed of such an institution for
years before it was possible for him
to start in small way five years ago.
He has not accomplished all that he
hopes to accomplish but much has
been done in the five years in which
the home has been operated.
The boys taking part in the enter
tainment range from about seven to
fifteen years of age, and they are a
talented lot, giving a program, every
number Of which received rounds of
applause.
During the intermission between the
first and second acts, free will COLI
lection was taken and the Herald UNI
derstands that the Sank Centre pub
lie responded very literally in aiding
the meritorious work of Father F1an-
agan's Home.

A FINE INVESTMENT

"It is to be hoped that every per-
son who can do so will exchange War
Savings Stamps, soon to fall due, for
Treasury Savings certificates, said.
Postmaster ]. A.. Schoenhoff. The,
large amount Of money invested and
the great number of persons who pur-7
chased war savings stamps showed
that the people Of this country could
save money when the necessity arose..
Now, if they will take the money they
saved when they bought stamps to-,
aid the government in the prosecution
of the war and buy Treasury savings
certificates, they will demonstrate
that the thrift lessons of the war have
not been without effect. The holders
of war savings stamps have seen
investments of about $20.50 grow to.
$25 in five years, and larger amounts;
in the same proportion. They cam
see the same thing repeated if they
reinvest in Treasury savings certiff-

Wise Ones Stick to Home Creamery

The Blue Valley company, one of
the big cream and butter centralizers,
have made unsuccessful attempts to
locate at Sank Centre. The people
of that city, realizing the Importance
of the cooperative creamery, have
made every effort to keep the centra-
lizer out. The Blue Valley company
announced that it would gather cream
for radius Of so miles, which would
lesa hard blow to several Morrison
county cooperative creameries. Pro-
ducers- of butterfat should remember
that the centralizer's high price usu-
ally lasts only until the farmers
creamery is out of business, then the
price is dropped to suit the pprchas-
ing agent and not on market values.
Those who are wise will stick to their
home creameries.-Little Falls Trans

Cold Weather Hampers
Water Works Building
Gas Engine Put Out of Commission
Monday Morning by Explosion
of Ether

The construction of Sank Centres
new water system has been delayed
again by an accident that occurred
Monday morning when an attempt
was made to start the gas engine
that operates the large digging ma
chine.
The Herald understands that in an
attempt to tease the refractory motor
into action, Supt. Harry Reynolds in
jected considerable amount of either
with hope that an explosion would
follow and set the engine in motion.
A lighted torch was used for the
purpose of heating up some of the
portions of the engine and the ether
explosion occurred all right but not in
the manner anticipated. D..
In the course of the ether's expan-
sion a large sized hole was made in
one of the cylinders, iron flying in ev-
cry direction. Howard johnson,
standing near by, was struck in the
face with several small particles but
no one was injured. At this writing,
Thursday morning, repairs have not
been completed.
Inasmuch as it will be impossible to
complete the system this winter, it
would seem the part of wisdom for
the Light and Power Commission to
allow the contractor to complete the
block in which he is now working, and
delay further construction until the
frost has gone out of the ground in
the spring.

market for butterfat that has ever
been devised or established and the
Long Prairie Community Club feels
that anything calculated to undermine
or injure the creamery not only affects
the prosperity of the farmer, but in
jures the community. We, therefore
express our opposition to this cen
trailer plant and pledge our aid and
cooperation to assisting the cream
cries in their fight against it.
A short time ago the Herald edi-
tor received letter from Herman
Rowe, editor of the Mortified News,
in which he stated that he saw by the
Herald that the Blue Valley Creamery
Company were locating in this city.
In his letter, Mr.. Rowe referred to
the experience that the farmers in the
vicinity of Mortified were having in
connection with a privately owned
milk manufacturing plant located in
that city.
Mr.. Rowe stated in his letter that
when this concern located in North
field they held out glittering promises
as to what they were going to do for
the farmers of that territory, and
that the results were not justified by
the claims made. The Mortified edi-
tor stated that judging by the ex-
perience the farmers of his commun-
fly had had with large outside con-
Germ handling dairy productcs, he was
of the opinion that the farmers in the
territory of Sank Centre would suf-
fer in a like manner unless they stood
family back of the cooperative cream
cries.

The advent of the Blue Valley
Creamery Company into the city of
Sank Centre is creating outside at
tention, particularly among those in
terested in the welfare of the coop
erative creameries.
While at the State Capitol last
Friday, Governor ]. A. o. Preus in
terrogated the Herald editor as to the
conditions upon which the Blue Val
ley people were entering Sank Cen
tire, and expressed himself as being
very much gratified at the action the
Herald and the Sank Centre business
men were taking in standing back of
the farmers of this section in the fight
they were making to preserve the CO.
operative creameries.
Governor Preus expressed himself
in no uncertain terms relative to the
proposition, and stated that he was
going to take steps at once to see if
the Blue Valley Company could not
be prevented from entering the state.
It was suggested to him that legis-
lation of this sort would probably be
considered class legislation. He said
the Blue Valley Creamery Company
were striking at the very foundation
of the cooperative industry Of the
State of Minnesota which was the
most important agricultural industry
in the entire state, and that it must
ho % Ill L..
Governor Preus did not state to
the Herald editor just exactly what
steps he intended to take, but he in
timated that he was sure way could
be found to protect the cooperative
creamery from invasion by institu-
tons like the Blue Valley Company.
The businessmen of towns in Cen
trail Minnesota adjacent to Sank Cen
tire are also very much concerned ov-
er the locating of the Blue Valley
Corporation in this city. -
At meeting of the Long Prairie
Community Club Tuesday of last
week, the question of the entrance
into this territory of the so called CEN
tralizing plant in Sank Centre was
discussed and the following resolution
was unanimously adopted:
''The Long Prairie Community Club
hereby regrets to know of the entrance
into this territory of centralizing
plant to compete with local cooper
ative creameries, and it hereby wishes
to express it's disapproval of the en-

Henrik Shipstead Tells
How He Won Senatorship
Curtailment of Credits, Freight Rates
Given as Causes-Rain Saved Re
publican State Ticket

Washington, Dec. 5-Dr. Henrik
Shipstead, senator elect from Min
nesota, today told the City Club OF
Washington, that he was elected be-
cause of economic conditions in the
Gopher state. Incidentally he said
the whole Farmer-Labor party ticket
would have been elected except for a
week of rains that kept $4,000 farm
ers from the polls.
"The campaign was Clearly fought
on all Sides" DR.. Shipstead said.
However, it was bitterly contested
Personalities were not responsible for
the results. Instead it was economic
conditions.
Curtailment of credits by the Fed
eral reserve board in 1920 after a
period of imitation; high freight rates,
the railroad strike, the convention
bill and number of other causes
were responsible for his election, Mr..
Shipstead said.
Attorney General Daughterty's rail-
road injunction was big asset to
his candidacy, DR.. Shipstead said
Railroad trainmen, he explained, cam
paigned vigorously for him after the
was obtained.
Refusal of the railroad executives
to end the strike after the men had
yielded, DIR. Shipstead said, was re-
sponsible to a considerable degree for
the car shortage that interfered so
seriously with marketing the potato
crop.

Large Number Of People
Hear Dan Morgan Smith
World War Colonel Thrills Large
Audience at Sank Centre M. E.
Church Wednesday Evening

The address of Col. Dan Morgan
Smith, commander of the so-called
Battalion of Death in the st. Mihie,
drive on Sept. IL, 1918, in the Sank
Centre Methodist church Wednesday
evening of last week, attracted large
audience.
Colonel Smith is typical South
ener and son of Confederate sol
dier. One Of the most impressive
parts of Colonel Smiths lecture was
the description of the terrible fear he
experienced during a halt just before
going into the jaws of death on or
ders to take the hill at Faye-en-Have
and he claimed that strength was CIV
en- him to carry on the work through
the power Of prayer. He described in
vivid detail various phases of the war
as he saw it in relating deeds of hero
ism. He took to task the bootleggers
for their defiance of the Constitution,
the thing for which brave men have
fought and died. He called "a spade
a spade" with an emphasis that no
one could mistake.
Col. Smith was formerly. of the
first Battalion 1853 Infantry, Goth Di-
vision, A. E. F., two of his boys,
Clarence Larson and S. P. Strafge
were from Alexandria. In this drive,
the Colonel's command of over one
thousand men was all but wiped out.
A glowing tribute was paid to the
men of Minnesota who made up a
large part of this battalion.
Colonel Smith is speaking in behalf
of the Anti-Saloon League of the ma
ton. Referring to prohibition law,
he said that perfect enforcement of
the act was not expected as yet but
that it was coming and that it was
the duty of every loyal American to
help enforce it.
Contributions were asked from the
people in this country for a five yea
drive for the purpose of supporting
the work Of the World League against
alcoholism
