TO ATTEND BROOTEN
COMMUNITY FAIR
OCTOBER SECOND SET ASIDE
FOR MELROSE AND SAUk
CENTRE DAY
MAKE YOUR PLANS TO GO
WILL LEAVE THIS
CITY PROMPTLY AT NOON
NEXT THURSDAY

Plans are well under way for the
sending of large delegation of
Melrose, Sank Centre and citizens in
adjacent territory to the Brooten
Community Fair Thursday, Oct. End,
this day having been designated by
the fair officers as Melrose-Sauk Cen
tire Community Day.
There is splendid feeling existing
betweent the communities in the
southwest part of the county and
Sank Centre and Melrose. Their in
terests are identical in many re
spects.
At the recent Stearns County Fair
held in Sank Centre, Brooten and
Belgrade sent splendid representa-
tons on Brooten and Belgrade day.
Brooten also brought their band
along and furnished splendid music
at the grounds in the afternoon with
out one cent of expense to the Fair
Association.
The Melrose committee consists of
Mayor Meyers, Norbert Borgerding,
and Editor Carl Carlson. The Mel
rose contingent, headed by the Mel
rose band will arrive in Sank Cen
ire promptly at 1900 o'clock next
Thursday at which time it is hoped
that the Sank Centre delegation will
be ready to join the pilgrimage to
Brooten.
Pres. J. B. Schoenhof of the
Stearns County Fair and President
of the City Council C.. E. Bohall,
are looking after the Sank Centre
end. If you intend to go and have
any spare room in your automobile it
will be appreciated if you notify
either of these gentlemen as soon as
convenient.
The Brooten Community Fair is one
of the most successful in the entire
state. With fine spirit of loyalty
the hustling business men of that
town hang up the money for the
prizes and all other expenses of the
fair, and the Herald sincerely hopes
that the residents of Melrose, Sank
Centre, and Community will turn out
in large numbers on Melrose-Sauk
Centre Day.

the Blue Valley Creamery Company,
was filed with the City Council at
a meeting held Monday evening of
this week asking for the laying Of
paving, starting at Main and Third
street, and running north on Main t.
the bridge.
The petition represents the re-
quired number Of footage to bring
the matter to the Councils attention.
There is some opposition, however,
by other property owners, to the inn
provement at this time and a hearing
on the petition will be heard at the
office of City Clerk Cooper Monday
evening, October Is, at 500 o'clock
P. M.
If the petition goes through the
city will pay for all of the paving
north Of the Northern Pacific right
of way except thirty three feet owned
by the Central Minnesota Power &
Milling Company, as this entire tract
of land is owned by the city on both
sides of the street with the exception
above noted. s
It will be necessary to re-advertise
for bids. A storm sewer will have
to be built and it is not at all prob
able that the improvement will be
completed this fall. So
The Herald is convinced that after
the present paving contract is COM
pleted and the citizens enjoy the
splendid streets, that there will be a
demand in another year for additional
paving. At least this is the exper-
hence of almost all towns after ] the
initiatory paving his been laid.

Mrs. Catherine Feucht Victim
of Dread Malady-Ca
Deceased Had Been Resident of This
Section for Many Years-Funer-
al Saturday .~

Mrs. Catherine Hartman Feucht
passed away Wednesday evening OF
last week at Minneapolis hospital
where she had been receiving treat
ment for that dread malady-cancer.
When the end came all of the
children, with one exception, were
at her bedside.
The deceased was born in Germany
in 1861 and came to America while
a mere child with her parents. The
family came overland to Minnesota
and settled on homestead in Birch
dale township, Todd county. Here
Mrs. Feucht grew to womanhood.
On November ~, 1883, Catherine
Hartman was united in holy wedlock
to Christopher Feucht at Long Pra-
irie, and they began the delightful
joy of building home for them
selves in Birchdale township. Mr..
and Mrs. Feucht belong to that
sturdy, and thrifty class of souls
of the German race who were
intensity interested in the good things
of life and to receive those things no
work too hard for them-ro day too
long, and their family ever found
comfort in the fruits of their labor.
Besides the husband the following
children born of this union survive
to mourn her loss:
Mrs. Ray Vandahl, Sask., Can.
Mrs. Walter q. Eager, Long Prairie ;
Mrs. Roy Truax, Portland, N. D.,
Albert Feucht at home. Two I. chill
dren have already proceeded their
mother to the eternal rest. There
are also six surviving grandchildren.
The father Of the deceased, passed
away while she was yet a small girl.
Her mother later married Mr.. Dett-
Ter Of Grey Eagle where they still
reside.
The following are the living broth
ers and sisters Of the deceased: Mrs ).
Bert Boyer, Long Prairie; Mrs !.
Georye Andrews, Bovine, MINI, OF
to Dettler, Langdon, N. d. 3; Fred
Detter, Seattle, WASH; Charles Dett-
Ter, Grey Eagle, Mimi; and Frank
Dettkr, Long Prairie.
It is said by those who knew her
best that Mrs.. Feucht was q con-
iscienious Christian, q loving and
pain&alking wife and mother, and a
thouthtful neighbor. Her highest
ambition was to create healthful
and bving home environment for her
husband and children and no labor

The reduced price for Herald sub
scriptions for a limited time an
nounced in last weeks paper is
meeting with liberal response and
a number of new subscriptions have
been added as people realize that the
Herald at the price of $1.50 per year
is bargain, and are taking advan-
tage of the 25 per cent reduction.
In order to familiarize all Herald
readers with this price reduction
campaign, the plan published last
week is reprinted again at this time,
as follows.
We will allow any Of our sub
scribers to settle their subscription
arreages on the basis of $1.50 per
year up to and including Saturday.
evening, Nov. 1, 1924. The only
string attached to this proposition is
that the subscription must be paid
one year in advance. New subscrip-
lions will be taken at theS LEO rate.
The regular rate will apply to sub
scriptions settled on any other basis.

RECEIVES BAD FALL

Mrs. Henry Smith who arrived in
Sank Centre Wednesday of last week
for a visit with many old friends in
this city, being entertained at the c..
ID. Marshall home, fell in some un-
accountable manner shortly after her
arrival and fractured the cap on her
right knee. She is still confined to
her bed at the C. D. Mashall home.
Mrs. Smith is resting easy but be-
cause of her extreme age her recov-
cry will be slow. Mrs. M. F. Wood
bury of Cornell, N. Y, daughter
of Mr.. Smiths arrived in Sank Cen
tire Tuesday and will remain assist
ing to care for her mother until such
time as Mrs. Smith is able to go to

ISLANDER
BY HAZEL DEYO BACHELOR

Anthony danced very we'll. 1t was one OF
the accomplishments of a gentleman, and he
was equally we'll versed in golf, tennis, swim
ming and any game of cards.
AS he put his arm around Miriam's slim
waist he realized that she held herself away
from him. Her body was as slender as a
willow wand but as remote, for she did not
"sUggle." She was lssome and light; she
danced to the rhythm of the music, but her
method was impersonal; it was very much
like the reserve in which she wrapped her
self, and again Anthony was irritated.
When he danced with women he liked the
knowledge that while he was Indifferent,
they were not This amused him. But
dancing with Miriam left him in no doubt
of the fact that she was either entirely in
different to him, or resolved on keeping him
at arms length. He had never known
woman in his life who had been able to play
that kind of game and get away with 1t.
The dance ended abruptly, and al
most Immediately Miriam was carried
away from him. Christine took posses
sion of her, introduced her to people
right and left, and it was midnlght
before Anthony could get another dance
with her AS they swung out on the
floor the impulse came to him to see what
would happen if he drew her close. He Won
dered what she would do, and the thought Of
catching her off guard was an interesting
one.
His eyes narrowed and a smile twitched
at his mouth as he$slowly began to tighten
his grasp of her. They danced around the
floor before he had accomplished his pur-
pose, and then she was close against his
heart; if she had turned her face it would
have touched his; the scent Of her hair was
in his nostrils.
1t seemed to him as he held her so that
her heart was beating hard. against his, but
she gave no sign of having noticed what he
had done She was too thoroughbred for

~ONFIRMATIONS of Georgia's sound
Judgment in declaring for William G.
McAdoo in the recent Presidential
So cool and keen watcher of events as the
Richmond Times-Dispatch, observing that
"he has marched steadily from one victory
to another within the party" and that
'there is little doubt that he will be the
leading contender for the nomination." gives
this good reason for his unbroken advance:
''McAdoo is a progressive: those who
have shouted the loudest against him and
have combined to bring about his defeat are
term, conservatives. If he were twice as
weak personally as he actually is, McAdoo
yet would put up a stiff fight in the arena
with opponents altogether out of tune with
the dominent sentiment Of the party this
year. Democrats in the rank and file be-
lieve that only a progressive Democrat has
the ghost of chance to win this fall against
the ultra, conservatism of the Republican
party, and to progressive they intend to
stick if they have their way at all. He will
be great figure in the convention pri-
marily because he is the only active candi-
date who may be regarded as symbol of
party hopes. The cause he alone has
represented among the active or leading
candidates is the nearest the heart Of the
Democratic party in the nation"
This, Interestingly enough, is just the
argument upon which The Journal pitched
its appeal for Georgias support of Mr.. Nc
Adoo in the primary election fortnight
ago. The great significance of what the
Times-Dispatch now has to say, however is
in the fact that it speaks from the heart
of a State having an honored son of her own

nomination, is warmly admired by all Demo

Anthony was for pressing his point but

was ridiculous. A girI who dined with
