Convention of Tailors Put Strict Ban On Freak Patterns in Mems CIoth- ing At Annual Session.

St. Louis. Mo-, Jan. 20.-Opposition to freak patterns in mems clothing, such as bell shape trousers with laced vents up the side, probably will be expressed in resolution to be intro- duced at the annual convention of the Merchant Tailor Designers as- sociation, according to Harry A..

achieved a wider notoriety among
 the nations of the world.
 First Krupp Shop.
 More than a hundred years age the first Krupp set up his small crude shop and began to make by hand the tools. the drills and chisels used by tanners, blacksmiths and carpenters along the Ruhr and the | Rhine. He also made dies for use in the mint of the government. With in 30 years, due to the old ambition for expansion, ,, Krupp tools were known and used as far away as Greece and India. Here, about this time also, spoons were first rolled from one solid block of metal by an odd looking machine invented for that purpose.
 'Then came the great era of mass production in steam engines, ham, mers, steel tires for railway cars, cast-steel shafts for river and ocean steamers, and finally that astonishing output of guns and armor plate which brought the militaristic nations of the world to buy at Essen.
 'The daily roar of artillery at the proving grounds, where each new gun was tested, added to the din of whis- ties, rushing trains and rattling gears, made prewar Ruhr probably the nois fest place on earth.
 Guns Now Silent.
 Ut is noisy enough now, but the great guns are silent; Krupp makes them no more. The big lathes that once made guns for every nation. from Chile to China, now turn out shafting for marine and other en- zines. Box-cars for Belgium, car wheels for South America, and whole | tram line systems for the Dutch East Indies were some of the orders being l filled when saw these giant works 9 few months ago.
 You can picture the size and scope of this colossal plant when tell you that, literally, the coal and iron come in at one end of the flock of factories and emerge at the other in Inc form of finished locomotives, with steam up for testing. or as blows, all painted and ready for the farm, or IS the finest nickeled instruments and .ools.
 Aside from it's truly amazing in- lustrial aspects. with its singularly adequate welfare institutions for aged md crippled workmen, Essen is only ln overgrown German factory town Iomber and smoky. It is the sort of ,lace you like to see--once."

"GRAYS ELEGY"

London. Jan. 20.-Dealers and cof- lectors are seeking to obtain first edi- tions of "Grays Elegy' as eagerly as Shakespeare's first editions.

ArCadianS Here
Next Friday Eve.
PROFESSIONAL ENTERTAINERS
TO GIVE PROGRAM OF MIXED
NUMBER AT ARMORY.

The Arcadians, trio of three young
men, will give the fourth number of
the lecture course at the Armory next
Friday evening. This number promis-
es to be one of the best entertainments
of the entire course and reservations
for seats should be made early as
many have anticipated the coming of
this popular troupe for some time and
the attendance will undoubtedly be
very large.
The Arcadians are three versatile
young men who put on program
which is advertised as one of the best
means for driving away the blues. !"
The numbers will include trio singing,
piano selections and number of read
ings since two of the number are pro-
fessional readers of considerable re-
putation. The three also produce
sounds on s'The Giant Mirambaphone"
whatever that may be! Possibly
there are others in the community who
are as ignorant as the editor as to the
character Of this instrument and will
attend the program Friday night part
ly as a matter of curisoity!
One more number will follow after
the appearance of the Arcadians, this
being the lecture by Homer B. Boblitt
the evening of March IL. Mr.. Boblitt
is one of the best lecturers Redwood
Falls has had the privilege of hear
ing for many years and his appearance
is awaited with keen interest.

State Board
Appoints Workers
CHILD WELFARE BOARD READY
FOR YEARS WORK; MISS
KENNEDY, CHAIRMAN.

The State Board of Control has
made the following appointments to
the Redwood County Child Welfare
Board for 1928:
Mrs. William Duncan. Milroy
Mrs. w. B. Clark, Lamberton
Mr.. H. B. West, Morgan
Mr.. E. A. Pease, Ex-Officio. Red
wood Falls
Miss Fern Kennedy, Ex- -Offcie, Red
wood Falls.
Mr.. Pease is new member, recon-
mended by the County Board of Com
missioners to represent that body.
Election of Officers was held at the
last meeting. Miss Kennedy who has
so faithfully served as chairman dur
ing the past year was unanimously
chosen for that office for the ensuing
year. Miss Joscelyn, the present ex-
ecutive secretary was elected secretary
of the meetings. Miss Colby was
present and stated that it was one of
the best meetings she had ever attend
ed in Redwood County. Many prob
lens come up before the Board each
meeting and the secretary works on
an average of about twenty-five cases
during every month.
A recent report of the Director of
the Children's Bureau in the State
Board of Control says:
''The Welfare Boards are on the
first line of defense in protecting the
rights of childhood. The State must
and does cooperate thru its Children's
Bureau in developing standards and
co-ordinating the work being done in
the various counties, but the problem
itself, the neglected boy, the delinquent
girl, the illegitimate or feeble minded
child, must be solved by the communi-
ty. The Child Welfare movements in
Minnesota is essentially in the hands
of its Child Welfare Boards. They
give promise of splendid achievements
in fulfilling their sacred responsible
ty."
There are now sixty-eight county
child Welfare Boards in Minnesota.
In 18 counties trained social workers
are employed, eight of whom are en-
ployed by the Red Cross to do this
splendid work. Redwood county
should be proud to be among those
which have an active Child Welfare
Board and trained worker.

Eighth Graders
Play Good Ball
LOCALS WIN ONE GAME AND
LOSE ONE IN RECENT BOUTS
WITH DELHI

The local Eighth Grade team lost
a feet basketball game to Delhi on
Friday, 26-12. after defeating them
24-12 the week before on the Armory
floor. Helgeson was the Delhi star
in floor work and basket shooting with
Tibbets carrying the burden of the de-
fense. Arnett, Jueneman and Corbett
starred for Redwood. The game at
Delhi was barren of fouls because of
the lack of whistle for the referee.
The floor was exceedingly small and
greatly inconvenienced the Redwood
lads The first half ended 1872 with
Delhi ahead but Redwood came back
strong and made the score at least
look better.
Both teams showed great ability in
defense and also distinguished them
selves in speed. They are the future
teams of the vicinity and deserve the
peoples support
The line up: Arnett F., Zethner F..
Wallin c.. Jueneman G., Arhens e.
Sub: Corbett and Jennings.

Company |
Plays Window
LOCAL GUARDsMEN BEAT VS.
ITORS BY SCORE OF 1918 IN
TUESDAY NIGHT GAME.

The local Company L FIVE over
rode Company G of Window in an in
teresting and fast game Tuesday
night. Mason and Zeimer were rarin'
to go and attached IL and 5 field bas-
kets respectively. Wilbur Lamberton
pulled off some spectacular dribbling
and classy pivoting and the others
played nearly perfect although Win
dom slipped behind the guards for a
couple of baskets.
Mason opened the game in fine
shape by rolling in field counters
and two free attempts before the vis-
itors located the whereabouts of the
ball. Near the end of the quarter they
gave Window look-in by allowing
them the use of the ball to make two
free throws. The first quarter ended
1872 with Company G eating Red
woods dust.
The second quarter Window took
the ball on their own initiative and
rolled in two baskets and missed as
many. Martin and Mason didn't ap-
prove of this so they scored five bas-
kets to show them who was who. The
first encounter ended-Redwood %,
Window 6.
Int SeCOHu naiI was uCLie more
even for while because of Window
substitutions. The exhilaration didn't
last long after Mason had dropped in
five or six baskets. Welch went on
the rampage and handled the sphere
for two baskets. Mason made two
free throws while the tourists made
one. The final count was 46-15 and
Windom's team went home with no
hair on the middle of its head.
Mr.. j. F. Gregor officiated and kept
the game clean and fast Several
fouls were called on each side, and
good craftsmanship prevailed. This
was the first inter-company game and
gives the Company good start for
a championship team.
The line up: Mason L. F., Zeimer
r. F., Martin c., Lamberton l.. g.,
Zorn r. G. Sub: Welch for Zeimer,
Shores for Zorn. Field goals: Mason
II, Zeirner 5, Welch 2, Martin 2, Lam
berton 1.

State Society
Here in June
SOCIETY INFORMS COMMERCIAL
CLUB THAT INVITATION WILL
BE ACCEPTED.
TWO DAY MEETING.
PLANS ALSO MADE FOR TOUR
OF SIOUX HISTORIC TRAIL
ASSOCIATION THEN.

Some time ago the Redwood Falls
Commercial Club, through its secre-
tary G. w. Gold, extended to the State
Historical Society an invitation to
hold its 1923 meeting at Redwood
Falls. w. A. Hauck, the present
secretary of the club, the other day
received the following letter which an
nounces that the meeting will be held
here and also gives some idea of the
plans being tentatively made.
Dear Mr.. Gold:-
AT meeting of the Executive
Council held on January 25 it was de-
cided to accept the cordial invitation
extended by the Redwood Falls Com
mercial Club to the Historical Society
to hold its second annual convention
during the Summer of 1923 in your
City.
I'VE have given some thought to
the question of the most desirable date
for the meeting and have tentatively
fixed the time for Friday and Satur-
day, June % and % to be preceded by
a tour under the joint auspices of the
Society and the Sioux Historic Trail
Association on June 81. The officers
of the Society feel that, in view of the
S~hsCAoiy VI thC Lung IApcQillOU VI
1923, and the location of Redwood
Falls, no more suitable place could be
found for the convention than your
city. 1t adds to our pleasure that your
organization has so courteously shown
its interest
DOUBTLESS you will want to appoint
a committee on local arrangements to
cooperate with US in planning for the
convention. We shall probably also
wish to have a general committee in
charge of the convention the members
of which will be selected from various
sections of the State all of them, of
course, to be members of our Society.
''In order that you may get a fair
idea of the nature of such a conven-
tion as we are to hold, / am enclosing
herewith copy of the program of the
convention which was held under our
auspices at Duluth last July. Will
you kindly keep me in touch with any
developments at Redwood Falls?
The Committee on local arrange
ments would nominally be appointed
by the president of the Minnesota His
torical Ss iety, but | suggest that yea
and Mr.. Hitchcock go over that ques-
tion and select. Committee and trans
NIT the names to us. The Society will
formally appoint the Committee. 1t
is, of course, understood that the COM
mittee may include members as
well as members"
Sincerely yours,
Theodore C. Blegen.

Poultry Show
Starts Today
REDWOOD COUNTY SHOW NOW
ON AT ARMORY; PROF CHAP
MAN HERE THURSDAY.

The Redwood County Poultry Show
is now on at the Redwood Falls Arm
ory, starting Tuesday. 1t will con-
tinue Wednesday and Thursday closing
Thursday evening. Thursday will be
featured by talk on poultry raising
and related topics by Professor Chap
man of the State University who will
speak at the courthouse Thursday af-
ternoon. There will also be interest
ing demonstrations in caponizing, cul-
ling, etc. Mr.. Hoberg of the Univer-
sity Farm is the judge of the exhibits
and will answer questions and lead dis
cussions that will be of interest to all
poultry fans while doing the work of
Judging.
Exhibits were coming in rather
slowly up to the time of going to press
Tuesday, due no doubt to condition
of roads and weather. Many people
of the immediate vicinity expected to
be able to bring their displays in dur
ing the afternoon and those from a
distance who were showing were send
ing their pens by train: The armory
is we II fitted up for the occasion
with coops and other necessary equip
ment and it was expected that by night
the usual number of birds would be
there. c. F. Gales, the president of
the Association is i'll and unable to at
tend and the care of the exhibits as
they come i'm is under the direction of
Mrs. R. A. Cooper the Association
Secretary o. A. Goetze, another To-
cal poultry enthusiast, is also confined
to his home by illness and it is just
possible that because of this his FAM
Gus Anconas may not be shown. The
largest display up to noon Tuesday
was that of Mrs. E. E. Mosier who is
showing thirty fine Plymouth Rock
birds of beautiful barring and excel
lent size.

Legion Defeats
WiHmar 1921
WINS SLASHING VICTORY TO
OFFSET DEFEAT AT
WILLMAR.
GOOD SPORTsMANsHIP SHOWN.
WILLMAR STARTS OUT BIG
WINNING 9 POINTS IN FIRST;
FANS ENTHUSIASTIC.

On Thursday night, playing before
the largest crowd of the season, the
local Legion team battled it's way to
victory over the Willmar quint by a
count Of 1921. Willmar secured a
head start of nine points in the first
quarter while Redwood marked time,
but the home team revived the old
pep and overcame the tremendous
lead by the end of the first half.
The first few minutes it appeared as
if Redwood had never seen basket
ball game and had paid their admission
and was watching the game. Willmar
rolled in basket after basket and dis
played some of the best team work
shown on the armory floor this year.
Redwood got away few plays but
couldn't locate the loop or else they
fumbled the ball. Nine Co nothing the
first quarter made the fans sit up and
take notice and j. was the general
opinion that tha Legion would take
> ik first drubb;ng on its own floor.
n nccnd lap started off well for
E Dahms made two beautiful
from inside their defense and
IN was set rolling. Gregor open
"a up a barrage and located ringers
before the whistle stopped proceed
ings. Mason got going under the
basket and rolled in two counters.
Mason played against hard man, who
weighed at least 220, and he worked
hard to obtain his three baskets.
Runt Lamberton, lowered long one
from the center of the floor and the
half ended-Redwood 16, Willmar 10.
The second half was all Redwood but
the~game was not as exciting as the
first half because of lack of fouls be-
ing called on either side. Lamberton
and Carity allowed the visitors only
3 baskets this half; these were gained
by spectacular team work and good
shooting. Lamberton used his eagle
eyes in fine shape and Gagged ringers
from the center of the floor. Gregor
and Dahms each accounted for two
while Mason slipped in one pretty
basket from out on the floor. The
conclusion found the figures at 1921
with Redwood high man.
Redwood was well revenged for the
Smarting defeat suffered at Willmar
5 Tome time ago. The game was played
hAard but clean and both teams showed
fslne sportsmanship. The last quarter,
y.amDerton and Willmar's bald d-headed
forward pulled off good natured ex-
hibition which showed the good feel
ings that existed between the teams.
The line up: Gregor l.. F., Mason
r. F., Dahms c., Carity L. G., Lannber-
ton R. G. Field goals: Gregor 5,
Mason 8, Dahms a, Lamberton A.
Free throws: Willmar 1-5.

High School
Carnival

Stands, Booths, Freaks 'nev-
erything! What does it make
you think Of? A carnival of
course and right in the middle
of the winter. That's the treat
the student body and faculty of
Redwood High are planning on
giving the citizens of this COM
munity on the 23rd of February.
We have had night sessions so
that they could see us in the more
serious work of school; but we
have not had chance for long
time to have such a lark with
our parents as this promises to
be. We know that the citizens
are interested in our work. We
want them to be interested in our
play. Let's get together and be
real pals for a night. Not only
will there be things to feast your
eyes on, but things to eat as well,
for example-red hot hamburgers
and every thing else that belongs
to carnival. If you are old
you'll like it and of course the
"kids" will like it; if you have
the blues, it will be first class
remedy. If you are happy, you
will be happier. So there is no
excuse for missing this carnival.
The high school is planning a lot
on this carnival. Plan to be
there and you will surely have
a time that you will not soon for
get. There will be policemen
aplenty to keep order. Serious
offences against the dignity of
the gathering will be tried at the
court of Judge Gregor.
High School will stage Big
FrOlic on February %.

Both Teams
Play at Morgan
GIRLS LOSE BY Is TO 8; BOYS
WIN "a TO 20 IN FRIDAY EVE
NING'S GAMES.

The High School boys and girls
teams journeyed to Morgan Friday
night, the girls losing by score of
1879, while the boys brought home the
bacon 24-20. The, floor was as slip
perry as glass owing to couple of
dances previous, and the games resem-
bled hockey more than basket ball.
The girls game was quite slow and
marred because of fouls called on both
sides. Helen Melges was the Redwood
star with free throws out of 10 at
tempts and one field goal. Dorothy
Smith and Vivian Anderson played
stellar games at guard. Alma Dahms
was the chief point-getter for Morgan
with A field goals and free throws.
Grace Albrecht played spectacular
game at center also.
The first half ended 1875 in Morgans
favor. The second half was one foul
after another and good team work was
impossible because of the glass-like
floor. The concluding count was 1879
with Redwood on the short end.
The line up: II. Melges f.. G. Mel
ges G., Marvin c.. Martin c.. Smith G..
Anderson G. Sub: f. Melges for
Martin. Field goals; H. Melges.
Free throws: II. MeIges T-l0.
Boys Game.
The boys game was as speedy as
could be expected on the slippery floor.
Morgan took the lead the first few
minutes by a field goal and free throw,
and held it till the last quarter. The
half ended l0-7 with Morgan on top.
The Redwood lads didn't hit their
stride until the third quarter when
Captain Root rolled in four baskets.
The third quarter Morgan IS,
Redwood II.
The last quarter Peavey got going
and made two neat shots under the
basket and Mason made three free
throws in as many tries. Root slip
ped in another counter while Morgan
speared- one long shot. The game
ended 24-2O with Redwood the second
time victorious
The line up: Peavey F., Mason f.,
