For several years the First State

Christmas attractions for the kiddies

they required the youngsters to regis

was remarkable. Some, besides reg

their fathr and mother and for their

300 A.. M. to 900 P. NJ, there was
a yeritable run on the bank"

HELEN RICH IN FRANCE

The many Sank Centre friends of
Miss Helen Rich will be interested in
knowing that she has arrived safely
in Paris, France. Miss Rich and her
young lady companion have taken
an apartment in Paris for the winter.
They have two rooms and ktchenet
up seven flights, for $4,000 per
month. There is no elevator in the
building SO that the girls get plenty
of exercise walking up and down
stairs. In a recent letter Helen
stated that she is particularly delight
ed with the French capital and that
the cost of living there is not as ex-
pensive as it is in America. In a
short time she will write the first of
a series of articles which will be
syndicated by a large number of
American newspapers. The Herald
has hopes that in the course of a few
weeks we shall have an article from
our former city editor, for the benefit
of Herald readers.

Gopher Prairie Shrine
Club Spreads Xmas Cheer
Home School Riddles Remembered
Tuesday Afternoon with Candy,
Toys and Other Cifts.

A year ago the ShrinerS of Sank
Centre hit upon the idea of spread
ing a little Christmas cheer among the
unfortunates at the Home School for
Girls. This year the Gopher Prairie
Shrine Club of this city, led by
President H. A. Falk, made an or
ganized effort to raise funds among
the members of the Gopher Prairie
Shrine Club to spread little sun
shine among the little tots and their
mothers, at the state institution.
Not only the Shriners in the COM
munity, but the members of the club
living outside, responded gladly with
the result that all the money neces-
sary to remember the iddies was
forthcoming without seeking outside
assistance. -
At 800 o'clock Christmas after
noon eleven of the Red Fee wearers
made the trip to Fairview where they
were met by DIR. Lena Beach, super
intendent of the institution, and a
number of the other ladies connected
with the school. Arriving at Fair
view each one of the Shriners took
several bundles in his arms and went
to the nursery where it was necessary
for him to locate the child for whom
ne had presents. Il
Each child was presented with a
box of Dowswell's famous homemade
candy, wrapped with a specially pre-
pared ribbon on which was printed
Gopher Prairie Shrine Club In
between the box and the ribbon was
dainty Shrine kewpie, which made
4, very attractive package. Besides
the candy each child received a pack
age containing from 6 to different
toys according to their age. Each
package contained the name of a GER
tain child SO that the presents were
aot given out in hit-and-miss fashion.
The visit of the Shriners at Fair
view was red letter day not only
for the little tots themselves but for
their unfortunate mothers. After
leaving Fairview the Shriners stopped
At the Administration building where
six of the smallest girls in the in
~stitution were gathered by DR.. Beach
and they were each given box Of
candy and packages containing silk
stockings, dainty handkerchiefs,
bracelets, etc. At tile conclusion of
the presentation here the members
We're served with coffee and cookies
by DR.. Beach.
One of the cardinal principles of
Shrinedom is to spread sunshine
among the unfortunates at Christmas
time, and when one ices the joy and
thankfulness with which the slight
tokens were received by the unfortu-
mates at the Home School the Mobiles
of Sank Centre feel more than repaid
for the slight effort and expense they
made in their behalf.
Undoubtedly the remembering Of
the babies at the Home School will be
an annual affair with the Gopher
Prairie Shrine Club hereafter.

CHRISTMAS GOLF

Charles Harrison, DR.. A. l.. Blk
d. B. Caughren, and J.. E. Bonner
Sank Centre golf fiends, played a
snappy foursome at the Sank Cen
tire Country Club links Christmas day
afternoon. It is unusual to say the
least, when golf can be played in this
section Of the country on Christmas
day, and only goes to show that up
to the present time California and
Florida haven't had anything on Min
nesota as far as ideal weather is con-
cerned. However, it win probably
be many years before it will be pos
sible to play golf on the local links
as late in the year as Dec. 25th.

Having rendered poor old Dobbin
