MORE SNOW NEEDED
IN MOUNTAINS

Up to the present time the precipi-
tation in the mountains has been de-
ficient, and more snow is needed to
produce water for irrigation when
the spring run-off comes. However,
it is believed that there will be a
large snowfall within the next six
weeks, and that the ranchers will
be in line for one of the best pro-
ducing years in history.

BOllum-MacDOugall

Miss Edith Bollum, the only dau-
ghter of Mr.. and Mrs. O. j. Bollum
of Redwood Falls, and Gilbert Mac
Dougall were married at the Church
of the Holy Communion at three
o'clock last Friday afternoon. Eu-
gene C. Prosser, rector of the Church
read the beautiful Ring service of
the Episcopal Church. The attend
ants were Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin Bollum,
the brother and sister-in-law of the
bride. Only the immediate relatives
of the two young people were pre-
sent. The bride was gowned in an
esemble suit of dark blue cloth fur
trimmed, worn with matching tailor
ed hat.
Following the service the bridal
party went to the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Bollum, Sr. west of Redwood
Falls and luncheon was served by
Mrs. Bollum. Mr.. and Mrs. Mac
Dougall then motored to Olivia, going
essom there to Minneapolis for a few
days stay. Upon their return they
will be at home to their friends in
Redwood Falls where Mr. MacDougall
is employed as the manager of the
Standard Oil Company. Both he and
his wife have been residents of Red

Aune for Mayor?

After two efficient and successful
terms w. T. Wilcox signifies that 1t
is now somebody's else turn to take
at hand at the business of mayori.sg
Redwood Falls. Just who Mr.. Will
cox successor is to be is a question
that is occupying the minds OF the
citizens who are anxious to see the
affairs of the municipality carried on
as becomes town of the status of
Redwood Falls. The most promin-
emily and popularity mentioned man
is H. M. Aune of the Aune and Thune
Clothing Company.
Mr.. Aune served the Redwood Coun-
ty as one Of the most faithful and
efficient Commissioners in it's history
and the fact that he served continu-
oLsly for many terms proves the
esteem in which he was held by those
whom he served. During practically
all of his term of office he served as
Chairman Of the Board. He was also
for many years painstaking and
Woodworking member of the Board of
Education, working always in the in
terests of economy and the welfare
OF the schools. 1t is said that many
years ago Mr.. Aune served as mayor
oEce before and made mighty good
one Now there comes another call
to him to again serve his community
and it is hoped that he will respond.
The Gazette has not interviewed Mr..
Aune on the matter nor discussed
the coming election with him in any
way. However it is rumored that an
iEsistent call will be made upon him
t. serve his town in this instance.

Two Fast Games
Booked by
Local Guards
HOPKINS INDEPENDENTS AND
RED WING BLACKBIRDS DUE
DURING HOLIDAYS. GOOD
SPORT PROMISED.
wild Rice)

Co. L. supporters will have chance
to see their favorites in action during
the Christmas holidays with two of
the fastest quints in the state for
the local guardsmen will tangle with
the Hopkins Independents on Decem-
ber % and the Red Wing Blackbirds
on December 81
The Hopkins Independents have a
powerful organization hanging up a
record of 79 victories out of sc games
played in three years. They have an
aggregation of speedy men who have
played together for three years.
During the 1924 season the Hop
kins team won 80 games and lost 5
games being declared champions of
Central Minnesota. To defeat such
an aggregation the local hoop artists
will be pushed to the limit.
On December 81 the Red Wing
Blackbirds will appear. The Black
birds are group of ex-college stars
touring Minnesota and in their lineup
boast of such stars as "Milt" Krueg-
er, formerly of River Falls Normal
and the Albert Lea Tigers; Van Put
ten of Hope College, Michigan and
all-state Michigan forward for three
successive years; Joe Hutton, Carle-
ton College star for four years and
all-state man; K. Brown of Carleton
and all-state High School and men,
ber of 1922 state champions and Put
zier, ST. Olaf star of several years
ago. The men are exceptionally fast,
especially Pulitzer and Hutton. Hut
ton is about the fastest thing on
wheels and he has a dead eye for
the hoop.
These two games will give the fans
of this vicinity an opportunity to see
some of the fastest basketball in a
good many years. Booking teams of
such high calibre means that the To-
cal lads will need two things-to play
basketball and support by the fans
of Redwood Falls.

REDWOOD HOOP ARTISTS SNOW
WABASSO UNDER SO TO AT
HERE FRIDAY.
wild Rice)

The 1924-25 basketball season of
Redwood Falls High School was open
ed last Friday evening by swamping
the Wabasso cage specialists under
a smothering basket fall of 36 to Z.
A splendid crowd of supporters were
on hand at the 'housewarming" OF
the new grade school gymnasium and
taking the crowd and the score into
consideration the new gymnasium
was opened in pleasing way.
The first quarter was fairly close,
the count being 6-2 in Redwood's
favor. In the second quarter the
Redwood lads got into action and
''cashed in with some nifty ball Gag
ing. The score at the end of the half
17-5 in favor of the Cardinal and
White.
The second session of the game
saw Redwood amassing total of 10
points to Wabasso's 2 and the final
gun found the score billed with SO
to victory for Redwood High.
The defense of the Cardinal and
White was in pretty fair. shape and
that means something. In the at
tack the work Of the Redwood Giants
was sparkling in spurts. AS whole
however the work of the team augurs
we'll for world beating season.
Capt. Englund played a stellar game
at guard and was everlastingly on
the job in the art of putting pep
into the crew. Cole played nifty
game spearing the honor of high
point man. Hosken at center besides
caging his share of the counters work
ed nicely in the teamwork. Manning
at guard aided Capt. Irish" materi-
ally in stopping the threatening at
tack of Wabasso. Merth of Wabas-
so was the stellar performer for the
neighboring town. Wabasso has a
good team and should be in the
tournament for schools of it's class
to be staged here February 27.
On Tuesday evening, December 16
at P. M. the Belview quint will
furnish opposition for Redwood High.
The game will be played in the new

The Girls Club of the high school
gave it's annual Mothers and Dau-
ghters Christmas party at the high
school Monday evening. The club
this year has nearly ninety members
and practically all of the girls and
many of the mothers were present
An interesting program of musical
numbers and readings was given by
the girls and little playlet given in
Spanish by the girls who are study
ing this language under the instruc-
tion of Miss Tupper was one of the
very interesting and amusing features
of the program. Miss Atcherson who
is the leader of the Girls Club, ex-
planned something of its purpose and
aims in short talk to the mothers
Following the program each person
present was given a suitable (?) gift
and these caused much noise and mer-
rlment. The girls served delicious
candies which they had made and

Every Day.
Well Given
Thursday Eve.
PLAY PROVES ONE OF MOST
POPULAR EVER GIVEN HERE
CHICAGO LYRIC SINGERS NEXT
BIG ENTERTAINMENT.

Last Thursday evening the second
number of the Redwood Falls Lyceum
Course of 1924-25 was presented at
the armory. The number consisted
of the play Every Day., comedy
drama in three acts, by Rachel Croth-
ers. Each of the five members of the
cast is a successful New York dram
atist and the Interpretation of the
various roles was interesting and
clever throughout. The amusing and
brilliant humor of the lines is one
of the strong factors in the success
of this play.
The lead in the play was taken by
Phyliss Nolan, the daughter of a
has just returned from five year
tour of Europe and is keenly alert to
the shortcomings of her home town
and of her parents. In f1er relations
with her father and mother and with
John McFarlan, a friend Of her faith
er, she betrays an unusual depth OF
character and in her playing of the
leading role of The play she shows
to a remarkable extent the dramatic
ability which has made her success
among the lights of Broadway.
Judge Nolan, the father of Phyliss
is a typical political and business
leader, proud, self confident and boist-
erous. His arrogant character fair.
ly resounded across the footlights and
his complete domination Of his own
household dismayed his daughter
who saw her mother a frail, timiG
woman, cowed by her association with
the Judge. The Judge was engaged
in a campaign for the governorshir
of his state, backed by Berry Wyman
an unscruplous profiteer. The Judge
plans to marry Phyliss to Wyman in
order to further his own ends, but
his daughter readily sees the real
motives back of his scheme.
Mrs. Raymond, the effusive, So
cially ambitious friend of the Judge
is also one of the plotters in the pro-
duction. She is of the blue-blooded
aristocrats who originally inhabited
N'Yawk, and her English drawl was
one of the features of the play, especi-
ally when she neglected to drawl and
let the words drip from her tongue
in an unbroken stream. Mrs. Ray
mond was looking out for the social
position of herself and her son. T. D..
therefore a union between Phyllis
and the son seemed all that coulC
be desired in her eyes. She heartily
opposed Wyman until she discovered
that all her worldly goods were ir
his hands and her fortunes were
directly connected with his success Oh
failure. From that time on T.. d
ranked less than double zero in his
suit for Phyliss.

First 6 Months
REDWOOD ORG PLANS
SERIES OF MEETINGS START
ING DEC. 10Th. REPORT SHOWS
MANY SPLENDID HERDS.

TeSter)

Tester)
The Redwood Falls Cow Testing
Association has completed six months
of testing. Improvement is already
showing up in nearly all the herds
and the members of the association
are beginning to find out which of
their cows is a profit and which a
loss. In many herds a few of the
cows are highly profitable. Frequ-
emily the profits from these cows are
turned into a loss from the herd as
a whole because the rest Of the cows
in the herd consume as much feed
and require as much labor per COW,
but give little in return for it. This
is the time to get rid of the boarder
cows with the present high feed prices
and to take better care of the good
ones.
declared that they are surprised to
find how good their cows really are
since joining the association and are
now taking much more interest in inn
proving their herds. Much advance
ment is being made through better
methods Of feeding. Feeding balanc-
ed rations maintains good production.
Twenty-Five out of the twenty
members are feeding alfalfa or clover
hay and twenty have silos. Many are
feeding bran and oil meal with other
grains to help balance rations more
satisfactorily and economically.
We have already found that cattle
are worth more when their produc-
tion is known. Good cows, with re-
cords in Cow-Testing Associations,
sell at much higher price than cows
of similar breeding without records.
Wise dairymen will always select and
pay more for young stock from cows
of known production. Continuous
Testing Pays!
The association, through the efforts
of County Agent Lynn Sheldon, is
going to hold during the winter
months series of Dairy meetings
for the purpose of studying and prac-
ticings better methods of dairying, the
care, handling, feeding and judging OF
Dairy Cattle. This study will be
made under the direction of Mr..
Searles, State Dairy Extension Speci-
alist, of the Minnesota University of
Agriculture.
These meetings will be held one
day month for the next three or
four months from 10 A. M. until A
P. M. The first meeting will be held
at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs o. D.
Streeter Friday, December 10Th. The

probably be held at the homes of Lee
