FIVE ACRES, HOME,
AND HEALTH.

Five young ex-service men who are
being hospitalized by the u. S. Vet
Grams Bureau at Ah-gwah-ching, in
Case County, Minnesota, at the State
tuberculosis Sanatorium, have each
purchased a five acre plot of land on
| the south shore of Leach Lake with
a frontage of 264 feet on the lake, and
with an elevation of about twelve
feet above water level. These plats
are covered with heavy growth of
practically virgin spruce, birch, and
maple timber.
These men have their cottages prac-
tically completed, and other improve
.ments made, such as garden space
cleared, walks laid out, and some
landscapipg done. The cottages are
constructed of pine and cedar logs.
The fire places, foundations, and
chimneys are built of uncut stones
from the lakeshore. Each cottage has
large living room, a kitchen, and
roomy porch. More comfortable and
inviting homes would be hard to find.
These little homes are being fitted
with furniture planned and made by
the men themselves under the direc
ton of the Occupational Therapy
teachers in the U. S. Veterans Bureau
Training Center which is maintained
at the State Sanatorium at Ah-gwah
ching. Much of it is unique, and made
of reed worked into various designs.
The men themselves are recovering
from tuberculosis and at present are
undergoing "home treatment, that
is, they do not live at the Sanatorium
but regulate their rest, diet, and work
according to instructions given them
by the physicians at the Sanatorium.
to which they report from time to
time.
They do some work on their homes,
and are contented,. happy, and i'm
proving in health in this environment.
Their work. hunting, and fishing give
them splendid appetites, and the out
of-door life is conducive to long hours
of sleep. They are enthusiastic over
their plan for ACQUIRING health, homes,
and happiness. They keep open house
to all. Come in, buddy.

self duty bound to maintain a mem
bership and lend his moral support
to the Commercial Club. Why? Be-
cause the Club and through the Club
it is possible to arrange for and foster
any meeting which requires the united
effort of the town, to put across any
movement which is for the betterment
of the City.
Within the last year such meetings
as the Fathers and Sons banquet, State
Historical Society Convention, meet
ing of the Sioux Historic Trail AS
ISOLATION and the reception given Bat
terry A. the past several months, the
care and arrangement made for the
State Fireman's convention next year.
All these meetings require a united
effort and can be made success only
by some organization of this kind
Many other aids might be mentioned
such as affording the use of the club
rooms for the entertainment of these
societies as well as for a meeting
place for committees, League of Wo-
men voters, Civil Service Examina-
tons and many other meetings which
the city would expect to find meet
ing place for.
You as good citizens of Redwood
Falls would not have it said that we
can't take care Of any meetings such
as has been or privilege to do in the
past and which we will be called upon
to take care Of in the near future.
Get behind this movement, become
member of the Commercial Club and

members up to October 18th. Ask

Willegalla tore through the center OF
the line and ran fifty yards for {

est plays we have ever seen. The en-
tire force of the Redwood team was
\, thrown against our line in an effort
to stop the attack, but our line open
ed hole that could not be stopped
and with Willegalla's powerful drive
things were so badly torn up that
nothing could have stopped him after
he got started. G. Dale kicked a
goal.
The game was very interesting from
the viewpoint of the spectators.
1t was a battle between two of the
best Independent football teams in the
state. Up to the last five minutes it
looked like a scOrelesS game. After
the Redwood boys had scored defeat
was staring us in the face, but the
Madison gang did not know what it
meant to die and fought to the last
breath.
There really were no bright stars
on either team. At different times
some spectacular work was done but
the flashes We're so evenly distributed
that every man deserves credit for
his part in the contest. Efforts are
being made to get return game with
the Redwood team to be played hereon

1t is needless to state that we were
we'll received and well treated at Red
wood Falls. The same old feeling be-
tween the Redwood and Madison teams
still exists and it was a treat for our
boys to be the guests of the Redwood
boys once more. We will never play
a team that will consist of more good
true sports than we met last Sunday.
A word should be said about the
treatment we were given by the fans.
The usual personal small town root

had lived in Redwood Falls all of
