LATEST BOBBED HAIR
PENALTY IN OKLA. Town

Bodied hair is now going out of
style in Ponca City, Okla, the local
physicians declare the continual
shaving of the back of the neck
with razors has caused an epidemic
of neck carhuncles.
Evidently the physicians in Ponca
City are looking for publicity or it
may be that the city harbors one

Redwood Falls
IS Beaten in Bat
tie with Monte
FUMBLES COSTLY IN FIRST QU-
AFTER OF SATURDAYS GAME;
LOCAL BOYS GO DOWN FIGHT
ING HARD.
(Bv Wild Rice)

The Cardinal and White gridders
fell before the determined onslaught
of the Monte men on Saturday. The
score was 18 to 6. This is the first
time in nine years that Redwood has
scored against Monte.
The game opened with Redwood re-
ceiving. Shortly after the game
started Hosken, carrying the ball for
Redwood, made neat gain and fun
bled. The tumble proved a costly one
for Monte grabbed it and shortly
thereafter smashed through for the
first touchdown. The try for point
failed. Taking advantage Of another
bit of loose playing Monte had the
count IL to 0. Jackson fumbled-18
to O. The first quarter was bad,
folks-bad!
Tightening their defense the Red
wood lads started showing their op-
ponents around; no scoring the Sec
ond quarter.
A heart-to-heart talk took place
between halves and the fans saw a
fighting crew battle for Redwood the
entire last half. Twice during the
second quarter the now-scrapping de-
mons carried the ball to Monte's one
foot line. Twice the assault was
battered back. Fighting desperately
during the fourth quarter, the Car
dinal and White kept the. ball in
Monte's territory practically all the
session. In fact during the last half
Monte invaded Redwood around once
and was easily rolled back. A nifty
pass was dropped-a sure touchdown
for Redwood. Then Corbett shot a
pass to Hosken who carried through
for Redwood's only counter. Try
for point failed. Game 1S to 6.
Monte was outplayed the greater
share of the game, getting the breaks
they were presented with two touch
downs-the result of costly fumbles.
The finest thing of the game was-in
face of defeat the Redwood crew came
back and outfought Monte three
fourths of the game. That fighting
spirit, clean and hard, is what makes
football the game it is. Redwood
townspeople showed the team that
it had backing for great gang was
on hand to support the boys.
Saturday, October 25 Redwood will
tangle with the strong Marshall eleven
here. The Marshall crew is powerful
and Redwood is full of fight and pep.
Get away for the game at 2:30.
On Armistice Day Redwood will
play Sleepy Eye here. Sleepy Eye
defeated Mankato a week ago, 9-7.
1t is interesting to note that Sleepy
Eye was overwhelmed by Window last
Friday by 53-7 score.
The High School band footed it's
way to fame Saturday and it will be
on hand every game hereafter. Sleepy
Eye promises 35 piece band. Big
stuff in store, fans! Remember the
dates:
October 25-Marshall-here.
November 11-Sleepy Eye-here.
November .15-St. Peter-here.

and the necessity for an increase in
the voting citizenry. The program
was planned by the clubs program
committee as a preliminary to the
coming election. and was an inspira-
lion to all club members to assist in
getting out large votes in their own
precincts. Interest was very mani
fest and the talks were followed by q
short, informal discussion.

Dangerous Spot

Three accidents in less than a week
have occurred at single spot in the
road four miles northeast of Morgan.
While no one has been fatally injured
all the occupants of the cars concern
ed have been badly bruised, shaken
and shocked and in at least one in
stance the injury may prove serious.
The victims of the accident were re-
sidents of New Ulm and of the Fort
Ridgely locality. In speaking of the
bad spot in the road the Morgan
Messenger says: "The scene of the
accidents is peculiar jog in the road.
The old road used to be a continuous
one but as a result of litigation it
was established that the road was
not built on the line and the Morgan
township officials were compelled to
abandon the old road between the
Hacker and Forbrook farms and grade
a new one about rs feet further south.
There has been no litigation in Eden
township and the old road remains
where it has always been, regardless
of the establishment of the new corn
er, so there is a square jog of about
Is feet connecting up the two roads"

Series of Fine
Meetings Held at
Local Church
DIR. CHRISTOPHERSON~ HOLDING
EVANGELISTIC SERVICES AT
CHURCH OF CHRIST; CLOSE
NEXT SUNDAY.

The series of revival services which
began Tuesday night, October 14th
are continuing and gaining in inter-
est. There have been three confess
sions thus far. The sermons by DIR.
Christopherscn are all of a powerful
Evangelistic appeal. They cover the
great themes Of religion, especially
such as have been the subject Of doubt
or debate and consequently help to
stabilize the faith of the members of
the Church. They also present the
way Of salvation in an appealing way,
sufficiently simple so that even the
children can see it.
The subjects for the sermons so far
have been, Rolling away the Stones,
"If had Life to live over again,
"The Church at the Center, "Know-
ing Cod, "The worth of the Church,
"Why / believe the Bible to be the
Word of Cod, and "Shall we abandon
all Creeds."
The subject for the remaining SER
vices are as follows:
Tuesday night, II Believe"
Wednesday night, Il Confess"
Thursday night, II am Baptized"
Friday night, "Whose Church"
Sunday morning, Cooperation, the
Measure of Our Civilization"
Sunday night, "How we may know
we love God" This is the closing
sermon of the series.
The Church has also requested Rev.
Christopherson to lead it in raising
funds to pay up its entire indebted
ness and to provide for repairing and
redecorating the building throughout.
DIR. Christopherson has had much ex-
perience in dedicating Churches and
in raising funds for religious pur-
poses and he is very confident that
the entire amount needed here will be
raised.
The pastor of the Church, Rev. E.
p. Gabriel, expresses himself as high
ly pleased at having the services Of
Mr.. Christopherson in the enterprise
as he was Rev. Gabriel's instructor in
Greek and Sociology in College and
his former Pastor in Minneapolis.
They have also been associated in
former Evangelistic efforts.

The Redwood Falls League of Wo-
men Voters has arranged for one
day school for voters, this school to
be held in the League room of the
Methodist Church Wednesday, Octo-
Der 29th. There will be both morn
ing and afternoon sessions conducted
by Mrs. Marclay, vice-president Of
the Minnesota League of Women vot-
ers. Every woman in the community

1 join a party, "What good are poll
tical parties"-are some of the ques-
tions that will be answered by Mrs.
Marclay who is particularly fitted to
answer all the questions which con-
front the average woman voter. Mrs.

to get out twenty-five per cent in
crease in the number of voters
who will go to the polls November

portant as it is that the vote be got
ten out, it is more important that the
intelligent voter be aroused. The
School is designed to give voters a
practical knowledge of the mechanics
of voting and of some of the issues
involved in the elections this fall.
There will be four subjects covered
in the school here:
what very voter should know
about voting" will include a discus
sion of Minnesota's election laws, in
formation about the offices to be fill
ed this fall and about party affilia-
tion, nomination and registration.

Farmers See Game


The Redwood Falls football team
was much encouraged at its last Sat
urday afternoon game by the attend
ance of farmers who had left their
work during this busy time and come
to town to attend the game. Seven
men, who are proud to class them
selves as "real dirt farmers" were
IN the sidelines and enjoyed the game
apparently just as much as though
hey need not go home and do Hdou-
,le duty" to make up for the hours
AIKEN off. The example set by these
men is one which others who are
ess busy may well follow. To have
he fathers and the fathers friends
ooking on is the best sort of support
ior the boys who are trying, to put
over the game.

independents
Are Beaten at
St. Peter Sun.
SCORE OF 1914 IN FAVOR OF
LEGION TEAM OF ST. PETER
is RESULT OF HARD FIGHT
ING.

Last Sunday the Redwood Indepen-
dents met their first defeat at the
hands of st. Peter. The match was
held at ST. Peter. The team and a
good sized aggregation of local fans
toured to St. Peter Sunday morning
with every hope of bring back an
other scalp. The team played fight
ing game all the way through but it
was one of those games where the
breaks all seem to land on one side
and it wasn't the home side.
AS whole, only straight football
was played throughout the game, al
though few passes were put over
and did their bit towards evening up
the score. St. Peter made two touch
downs which were considered to be
very doubtful by all who saw the
game. Thomas, the purple and gold
fullback was the scoring factor of
the Redwood bunch, as he made both
of two touchdowns and both extra
points after the touchdowns. St.
Peter made all their touchdowns off
of passes, and the extra point which
made the score 1914 was made by a
drop-kick. Miller, at quarter, play21
an excellent game, sending the ball
through the line for yard after yard
of gains. The lineup shows a few
changes from last Sundays game,
mostly due to various players being
laid out. Carity has recovered from
injuries received by an explosion and
is back at his old place at right guard.
Poske, who showed up so promising
in the Springfield is carrying out the
promise and is surely delivering the
goods at left end. Poske has weight
and speed enough to be considered
varsity material at Notre Dame and
he uses both like veteran. At the
other extremity is Hauck, who lacks
the weight but makes up for it in
speed and drive. These boys make a
pair that is hard to stop. Practically
the same lineup will be used for the
remainder Of the season, barring in
juries.
A return game is to be played st.
Peter at Redwood Falls on Sunday.

Second Style
Show Held Here
Two Evenings
FIFTY MODELS DISPLAY BEAU
TIFUL CLOTHING FOR BOTH
SEXES; SPECIAL MUSICAL AND
DANCE NUMBERS GIVEN.

The second semi-annual Style Show
sponsored by several of Redwood Falls
merchants, was featured Thursday
and Friday evenings of last week at
the Redwood Falls armory. Mems
and women's garments, hats and
shoes were beautifully displayed by
a corps of young men and young wo-
men of the city with the ease and
gracefulness of professional models.
The garments and other articles dis
played covered wide range of style,
and qualities and the beauty of many
of them attracted much favorable at
tention. The event of last week is the
outgrowth of the first style show
which was so successfully presented
last spring. that the afiliating mer-
chants decided to repeat the display.
In all probability the event will be
made a semi-annual affair. Visitors
we're present from towns at consid-
erable distance from Redwood Falls.
The models were shown to a cap
acity house on each of the two even
ings, and the sponsoring merchants
state that they are well satisfied with
the response given to their efforts.
The models were splendidly directed
by Ward Baldwin, who also coached
the clever song and dance chorus
which figured as one of the big at
fractions Of the show. AS special
features, Mrs. Ellen Palmer gave two
whistling solos and Miss Lucie GIFTS
sang with Miss Nora Rain accom-
panying.
The show consisted of two main
acts divided into a number Of scenes,
which were announced by two at
tractively costumed pages. The
models entered through door at the
back of the very cleverly decorated
stage, walked down a platform which
was raised above the floor of the arm
ory in order that the models might
be more easily seen. The models
walked the full length of the platform,
which stretched from the stage near
ly the entire length of the armory,
returned and made their exit at the
side of the stage. This arrangement
made it possible for more models to
be shown in a shorter space OF time
than by any other plan which could
have been devised and at the same
time gave every member of the audi
ence a good opportunity to see every
garment which was displayed. Dur
ing the entire performance music was
furnished by Joe Lerschen's dance
orchestra. The various garments
were displayed by a staff of fifty
young people, which, with the MEM
bers of the chorus, made personel
of nearly sixty-five people who took
an acting part in the show. The ar
tistic stage decorations were arranged
by Jack Klaus.
After the performance Friday eve
ming dance and luncheon was given
for the members of the modelling cast
and the chorus. The exhibit was
sponsored by the following mer-
chants: Cora Fox, millinery; Clare
Fisher, millinery; Chas. M. Showalt-
