Wind Blows Down Flag

Big Timber Pioneer: Postmaster
J. E. Cameron has had hard luck In
flying the national colOrs from the
flagstaff on top of the office. When
news of the death of former Presi-
dent Wilson came he hoisted it and
kept it up until after the funeral.
Then came an order from the depart
ment in Washington to keep it at
nall mast for a period Of thirty days.
Everything went all right until Sun
day, when an unusually harc winI
took flag pole, flag and everything
before it. Tuesday was Lincoln day,
also a national holiday, and the flag

troit July 9th

Last Sunday the Little Sank Base
ball aggregation met and defeated
Garfield at the. Osakis ball park by
a 13 to score. The game was very
interesting, but class finally told !.
Capt. Stephan changed his batting
order around with beneficial results.
Next Sunday Little Sank will be
the headline attraction at Detroit
where three Railroad Brotherhoods
will hold their annual picnic. Staples
will be their opponent, and it is ex-
pected that this game will be wit
messed by at least 1,500 people.
On August third Wadena will play
at the Osakis ball park in connection
with. the American Legion celebra-
ton Little Sank took Wadena into
camp few Sundays ago on the lat

Next Sunday morning at 1880
the pastor will bring message on the
subject: "The Bruised Reeds" This
is word of good hope for all. You
will be glad if you hear it. There are
many bruised and broken reeds
among us-the work of healing and
comfort must go on.
In the, evening at 500 the subject
will be: "Foolish Women" This is a
wod that will deal with certain hui
man traits peculiar to women. Both
men and women as we'll as all young
people are cordially invited to this
service.
At the evening service Charles
Gray whom we delight to present will
sing for us selections from The Elijah

Sunday if the locals do not journey
to Little Falls to play a return tourn-
ament. In the next contest the
Model will give pair of golf shoes
for the first prize and the steel driver

Railroad and Warehouse Com
mission Order Great Northern to
Stop Passenger 20 in This City

Strain No. 1, the Oriental Limited,
is through train to the Pacific
Coast, with fast through schedule
made necessary by competition and
makes but few stops from the Twin
Cities west in Minnesota, such stops
as are made being largely occasioned
because of operating conditions for
the receiving of coal and water. Train
No. 20 is through service but is a
service that can readily be distin-
guished from that afforded by train
No. 1, and with its companion train
No. 80 stopping at Sank Centre on
its way east, there seems to be not
the same necessity for the fast
schedule afforded by train No. l.,
trains 20 and 80 both arriving at
Sank Centre during the early morn
ing hours when time is often lost on
similar through trains in order to
accommodate the sleeping car passen-
gers and bring them into the terminal
at reasonable morning hour.
"The Commission therefore finds,
that while the present passenger train
service afforded Sank Centre is equal
to that furnished certain other towns
of similar size by other railroads,
the convenience of the residents of
said city and surrounding territory
may well be served by the stopping
of train No. 20 of the Great North
ern Railway and that the same is
reasonably necessary, but that the
stopping of train No. 1 thereat does
not seem necessary in the interest of
the public.
"It is therefore ordered, that the
Great Northern Railway Company be
and it is hereby required, on and
after the First day Of August A. D.,
1924, to make train No. 20, west
bound, leaving st. Paul at 1923 P.
M. and arriving at Sank Centre at or
about 2:O1 o'clock A. M. a regular
stop at said City of Sank Centre,
Minnesota.
