Pioneer Ice Cream Co.
Absorbs Alexandra Plant
Local Concern Will Take Over Prop-
erty After First of Year-Mr.
Wernig to Manage

The Pioneer Ic Cream Company of
Sank Centre of which Mike Wernig
is the active head, are expanding. The
latter part of last week negotiations
were closed whereby the Sank CaH,
tire company purchased the plant
and building of the Alexandria Ice
Cream Company.
Mr.. Wernig took over the Sank
Centre plant about two years ago
and since this time he has thorough
ly revamped and rebuilt the business
until today the company's brand of
Ice Cream, De-Lish-O, is known all
over Central Minnesota. Nothing but
the purest of food products are used,
which are manufactured under ex-
tremely sanitary conditions. De
Lish-O Ice Cream is the one Sank
Centre product that is handled ex-
clusively by Sank Centre dealers.
Besides the Ice Cream business
the Pioneer company specialize in
malt and candies. In the past ten
months have sold over eight car
loads of the famous Pickwick malt,
manufactured in Duluth. In fact,
the local company is the largest dis
tributor the Duluth company has for
their malt.
Mr.. Wernig stated to the Herald
Tuesday, that the Pioneer Company
does not contemplate taking over the
Alexandria plant until after the first
of the year. The business is in a
rundown condition, but by applying
the same energy and intelligence to
the Alexandria plant as Mr.. Wernig
has used in Sank Centre, their branch
plant in Alexandria will be placed on
the high road to prosperity within a
few months time.

daughter, Mrs. Eva McCauslin, at
Sacramento, CAL, Monday morning,
Nov. 26, 1928, a truly pioneer wo-
man of this section of Minnesota
passed to her reward.
The deceased was born in Ohio,
Jan. 10, 1886 and had she lived I'M
til Jan. 1924, she would have cele-
brated her 88th birthday.
About 10 years ago the deceased
was united in marriage to Munroe
Thomson in Indiana. Fifty-seven
years ago the family migrated to Min
nesota by means Of horses and wag-
ons, and settled on the old Thomson
homestead east of Sank Centre on the
Melrose road, where they resided for
many years.
Mrs. Thomson was the mother of
six children, four of whom, William,
Virgil, Emma, and May, have passed
on. The two surviving children are
Edgar l.. Thomason of Minneapolis,
and Mrs. Eva McCauslin of Sacra-
mento, Cal. There is also an adopted
daughter, Mrs. F. A. Robbins of
Minneapolis.
Mrs. Thonason broke up her home
in Sank Centre some 20 years ago,
her husband having passed away
about five years previously. The
last years of her life was divided be-
tween the home of her son in Min
neapolis and the home of her daugh-
ter in California. She made the trip
between Sacramento and Minneapo-
lis, alone, five times after she had
passed her 18th birthday.
Besides the children, five grand
children and nine great grandchil-
dren are the immediate family left
to mourn. The grandchildren are:

President Coolidge stated that eve

We want no more war. But we want
no weakness that invites imposition
A people who neglect their national

1t was Mr.. Coolidge's contention
that Congress ought to provide by
constitutional amendment, an appro-

child labor, and in all cases under the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal
Government minimum wage law for
women, which would undoubtedly find
sufficient power of enforcement in the
influence of public opinion" He
went on record as against the making
of appropriations from the National
Treasury to be expended directly on
local education but approved the pro-
posal Of a separate department and
place in the Cabinet for education
and allied subjects of welfare.
