FOREST CONSERVATION

Conservation of the wooded lake
shores and forests of Minnesota and
the planting of trees to replace those
cut down are important items on the
program of the American Legion of
Minnesota, according to recent bull
letin to all posts of the Department.
During the last two years Minnesota
Legionaires have exhausted the sup
ply of young tees made available by
the State Forestry Department for
planting. The former veterans have
set trees along the important high
ways, in the parks, and in the ceme-
teries of the state, in memory of those
who died in the late war.
MANY DISTRICT CONVENTIONS
This is the season of congressional
ddistrict conventions of the American
Legion, to be followed later by the
state and national Legion conven-
tons. In this way the individual
members and posts exert their inf1u-
ence through district and state meet
ings and indirectly play a big part in
the decisions of the annual national
convention, which will be held this
year at San Francisco, and for which
a special transportation committee is
making plans for big pilgrimage of
Gopher Legionaires, taking the Nor
them Pacific route on the way there,
and returning via Salt Lake City and
the wonderful scenery of Colorado.
Several hundred Minnesota Legion
and Legion Auxiliary members will
make the trip next October and will
be Joined by Legionaires from Wis
consin, North Dakota, Montana and
other states.
WHERE AND WHEN
July 1920, 1923, the Second Dis
trict Legion Convention will be held
at Jackson, Minnesota. The Second
District Legion Auxiliary will meet at
Window, July 10-11th.
The Third District Legion and Aux
iliary will gather at st. Peter on July

st. Peter with 200 automobiles, head
ed by Doc Maertz and a big brass
band" declares Father David Moran
of Pennington, Third District Com
mander.

ton is now District Commander.

AUXILIARY HELPS SALVATION
ARMY
In Lanesboro, Minnesota the Lee
gion Auxiliary is sponsoring the an
nual Home Service Appeal of the Sal
walton Army and is raising $4,000
with which to help the latter organi-
cation carry on its work. These mo-
theirs, wives, sisters and daughters of
Lanesboro Legionaires say that they
have not forgotten the many deeds of
kindness which the Salvation Army

at the Caughren Theatre.
The story depicts the struggle of
two men, so close in resemblance that
the wife of one cannot tell them
apart. And the bachelor, who rec
ognizes in her the one woman in the
world he could love, finds himself at
bay because of the sense of honor
that he cannot stifle.
Seldom has a theme of similar in
terest been presented on the screen.
"The Masquerader" is an established
success upon the stage. Guy Bates
Post, who created the dual title role,
has taken his part again for the pic
ture which is produced by Richard
Walton Tully.
Trained by long experience, the
star gives an intimate study of the
characteristic of the two men; one
leader gone astray, and the other
an impeccable genius in impoverished
circumstances. A cast of excellence
interprets the supporting parts.
Among those whose histrionic ability
has been enlisted in the making of
this feature are Ruth Sinclair, Ed
ward M. Kimball, Herbert Standing,
Lawson Butt, Marcia Manon, Bar
bara Tenant and Kenneth Gibson.
Il
many small town on the screen,
but none have. been more faithfully
presented than the one in Betty
Compson's new picture, "For Those
We Love-" a Goldwyn release COM
ing to the Caughren Theatre for two
days, beginning Friday, Here the old
hotel, the house with suspicious-look-
ing shades, the simple country home,
and the local barber shop may be
seen in all their simplicity. Without
ostentation, "For Those We Love"
becomes a gripping romance, beauti-
fully presented and excellently play
ed.
When it comes to stories for
screen features, some of the leading
producers today are using only the
material which is familiar to many
readers and established as "some-
thing worth while" AS an example
the picture in which Herbert Rawlin-
son will be seen at the Caughren
Theatre next Tuesday, "The Scarlet
Car" is one of the famous stories
from the pen of Richard Harding
Davis that appeared in serial under
that title.

NORTH BRANCH ROAD IMPROVED
AT VERY HEAVY COST

The North Branch railroad between
Delta and Somerset has undergone a
much-needed improvement during the
past several months, and as yet, is
still under process of completion. A
force of twenty-five teamsters have
been employed, as well as a steam
shovel and ditcher. The grade is
being widened, the light steel rails
being replaced with SO-pound rails,
and the bridges at Austin, Hotchkiss
and Paonia reinforced, which will in
crease efficiency and safeguard
against wrecks. The cost is an inter.
esting item, the total expenditure
being in the neighborhood of $243, 900,
of which $4,000 goes for bridges,
while $500 per month is being paid
for the steam shovel and s5,400 for
the ditcher each month For several
months the payroll numbered 225, but
since the work is nearing completi-
tion, the number on the payroll has
been reduced.
