has advised France not to go toe
far with the military occupation of
Germany, says he is working on plan
for a continental economic bloc, which
he hopes would be joined by England
and which, in that case, he believes
would bring peace to Europe.

Tuesday voted new defaults against
Germany on coal, cattle and horse de-
liveries. Friday the commission met
again and it is said Roland w. Boyden,
the American unofficial member, sub

Examiner Viegel of Minnesota and
the latter part of last week President
Spieker of Melrose and Metre Grove
banks went TO st. Paul and went
over the entire situation with the
Minnesota Banking Department, and
the decision was arrived at that the
best interest of all would be con-
served by closing the banks. Con-
sequently they did not open for bus
mess Monday morning.
o.
There is no question but what the
tying up of nearly $1,300,000 of de-
posits even for a few months, will
seriously cripple an otherwise pros
porous community. The Melrose bus
mess men particularly, have had
more than their share of trouble, in
the past few months. The division
was removed from Melrose to St.
Cloud by the Great Northern rail-
road about October first taking about
100 families from the community, and
the failure of the Security State
Bank in Melrose, tying up vast sums
of the business mems money, makes
their outlook for Thanksgiving any
things but cheerful.

NEW USE FOR Autos.

The sweet girl graduate and her
callow brother, upon finishing their
high school course, pick out suitable
class motto as their guide post in the
years to come. One of these over
worked mottos has been, Glitch your
Wagon to a Star" It was very clear
~ demonstrated on 4th Street near
the First State Bank last Thursday
morning that it was not particularly
difficult to glitch your wagon to a
STAR" especially if there were no
hitching posts near by. A farmer
driving to town with his team, used
Ben Dubois nice new Star automo-
bile as hitching post.
Ben has long been insistent that
hitching posts were absolutely neces-
sary on 4th street to accommodate
the few remaining farmers who drive
their teams to town and he claims
that the demonstration last Thursday
morning proves his contention.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY
A FINE PRODUCTION
SAUK CENTRE PUBLIC SCHOOL
STUDENTS PLEASE A VERY
LARGE AUDIENCE
KIDDIES In DAINTY ACT
CAST INDIVIDUALLY AND COL
LECTIVELY DEVELOP UNUS-
UAL HISTRONIC ABILITY

The students of the Sank Centre
Public school scored another success
Thursday evening of last week when
"The Charm School," very clever
American comedy, was presented by
the Junior class under the direction
of Mrs. Enid Richards. AS originally
written, "The Charm School" appear
ed in short story form in the Satur-
day Evening Post, and it was later
dramatized and also filmed with
Wallace Reid as the star. 1t was a
pretentious undertaking for amateurs
to take on but Mrs. Richards used
splendid judgment in the selection
Of the cast and it's portrayal was of
an unusually high order.
The story has to do with the Inherit
ing of a girls boarding school by a
young automobile salesman, Austin
Bevans, portrayed by Harry Palmer.
The success or fairure of the produc-
ton revolved around the manner in
which Bevans was handled; in fact,
all the other characters of the play
were feeders" to Bevans. Young
Palmer was equal to the occasion.
The Herald will not make any at
tempt to take up each individual part
as the adjectives at the command of
the writer are somewhat limited,
making it impossible to do each one
justice, as the entire supporting COM
pany were all that could be desired.
The stage settings were in good
taste and added much to the effect
lvness of the production. Between
the second and third acts, Mrs.
Richards was called to the stage and
Presented with a beautiful bouquet
of roses by the Junior Class as a
slight token of their appreciation of
her efforts to make their annual class
offering success.
The vocal selections of the girls
of the boarding school in the second
act, led by Miss Octavia MacNamara,
accompanied by Miss MERGED Bishop
at the piano, were enjoyable features
of the entertainment.
The printed program stated that
the Senior High School Glee, club
would sing, between acts, but these
numbers were changed to the Junior
High school Glee Club who first sang,
"A Sailor Song" and for the encore
"Cousin Jebediah" under the direc-
ton of Miss Dorothy Scott musical
director of the school, with Miss Mar
gurite Wyatt at the piano.
Between the first and second acts,

ed by Rosamund Parker, June Arndt,
Grace Larson, Ruth Austin, Nancy
Jane Wedge, Glenaire Key, Dorothy
Dobbs, Mildred LeSeur, Dorothy Irish,
Della Lane, Janett Steiner, Adelia
Henningsgar, and Tia Hardin with
appropriate costumes. This act was
as dainty as it was enjoyable. This
speciality was also under the direction
of Miss Scott with Miss Dorothy Bug
bee at the piano. The piano solo by
Miss Evelyn Kusba was a clever rem
dation of a difficult selection.

thousand geese keeping them
