Mrs. William Rasmussen

On Wednesday, December 81, 1924,
our kind Father called dearly be-
loved mother to her eternal rest.
Mrs. William Rasmussen, whose
maiden name was Elise Fabricius
Presterud, was born May 6, 1861, in
the Town of Martell. She was the
oldest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. M.
Presterud. On June 20, 1881 she was
married to William Rasmussen and
they resided on her parents farm
for one year. They moved to River
Falls and resided here for nine years.
While they lived here Mrs. Rasmus
sen was faithful member and an
active worker in the Lutheran
church.
In 1892 they moved back to their
farm and Mrs. Rasmussen had been
a faithful worker until her death.
She is gone, but her sweet memory
and christian influence will be con-
slant inspiration to all who knew her.
She was kind neighbor and never
too busy to lend helping hand. Her
passing is deep loss to her home
where she leaves a place that never
can be filled. Her husband and five
children, Robert, Ernie and Kath-
rinka, who are at home, and Adolph
and Mrs. V. Notes of St. Paul, Mimi,
survive her.
Funeral services were held Satur-
day, January 3, at the Rush River
church, Rev. z. Ordahl conducting the
services. Burial was made in the
Rush River cemetery.

The question was raised over the
advisability of admitting one of these

suited in a very heated argument
between Marshall Norseng and Jack
Dawson. After many parliamentary
questions being raised it was decided
to put The applicant on probation

SHUTDOWN WILL BE SHOWN
AT PRINCESS THEATRE
SUNDAY AND MONDAY
100000 Cattle Used in Picture

Shutdown" First Nationals long
expected drama of the West, which
has proved to be the most preten-
tious effort of that company's own
producing units, comes to the Prin-
cess Theatre Sunday and Manday,
Jan. 18th and 18th.
Shutdown" is an original story
written by Earl Hudson, supervisor
of the First National Productions.
The story unfolds the dramatic
theme of the passing of the Old
West before the advance of cultiva
tion. This is, incidentally, current
history, since the encroachment on
the unfenced ranges Of the South
west recently caused American cat
tlemen to unite their herds and drive
them across the Rio Grande into
Mexico, and it was these scenes
which were filmed by First National
to be incorporated in "Sundown.n
Never again will such huge herds
be seen in the United States. More
than 100000 head of cattle will be
seen winding their way in a huge
line half a mile wide in this great
production. s1s4
The human players who enact
their roles against a background of
awe-inspiring grandeur and inn
mensity are: Hobart Bosworth, Bes-
sic Love, Roy Stewart, Charlie Muir
ray, Arthur Hoyt, Charles Sellop,
Charles B. Crockett, Bernard Ran
dali, Wilfred North, Hal Wilson, and
Jere Austin. TX

Indications Show
Big Registration
for Short Course
at State College

Bozeman, Dec. 18.--With an unprec-
edented number of inquiries and a
large increase in advance registra-
tions, Montana State college is pre-
pairing for a record breaking atten-
dance at its 12-week winter short
course starting January 4. Inquiries
are coming from men and young men
Of the farms from all parts Of the
state Chief interest centers around
the courses in horticulture, dairy
manufacturing and agricultural en-
cheering
The 12-weeks short course is pro-
vided by Montana State college to
give farmers and their sons, who do
not care to take the more extensive
regular college courses, an opportun-
ity to spend the slack winter months
in studying the special lines Of farm
ing in which they are most interested.
The courses are prepared to meet the
needs of Montana farmers and are A.
piled to the conditions found in the
state. The courses are thoroughly
practical and so concentrated and
simplified as to give the student an
opportunity to get the greatest pos
sible benefit from his work. Regular
college instructors, laboratories and
class room facilities are used in the
short course.
Courses are offered in the various
lines of agronomy, animal husbandry,
dairy husbandry, dairy manufactur-
ing, horticulture and agricultural en-
cheering.

CARE OF CREAM IN WINTER

The cooperative creameries of Min
nesota are putting forth special effort
to produce high-quality butter. To
this end most creameries are paying q
premium for sweet cream.
In winter it is comparatively easy to
have cream sweet but when sweet
cream contains bad fiavors, it is just
as detrimental to the manufacture
of high quality butter as if it were
sour, or it may be even more so.
Cream should be cooled in cold
water Immediately after separating in
winter as well as in summer. This is
done to remove animal heat and any
barn odors taken up by the milk in
the process of milking. If the animal
heat is not removed quickly, the cream
will not have the same flavor that it
would have otherwise. Setting the
cream in cold room will not cool it

@QUO VADE" NOVEL
NOW FILM THRILLER
First National Makes Gigantic Spec
tacle of Sienkiewicz Classic

Henry Sienkiewicz, world-famed au-
thor of the literary classic, "Quo
Vadis," from which First National
adapted its present huge spectacle,
was awarded the Nobel prize in 1906.
This prize, coveted by all the truly
great men of the world, is awarded
annually to the author of the best lit
terary work of the proceeding year.
The late ex-President Roosevelt was
awarded the prize one year.
The film version Of "Quo Vadis"
will show at the Roman Theater Sun
day and Monday 81, and 2s. Emil
Jannings does a splendid characterize
ton of Nero, with Lillian Hall Davis,
the English stage star, appearing as
Lygia, his beautiful Christian hostage.
The picture was filmed in Rome, on
the actual site of Nero's tyrannies.
Twenty thousand men, women and
children make up the stupendous cast.
Quo Nadls is replete with thrills,
picturing wildly the burning of Rome
by Nero, as an inspiration for his
stupid verses, the burning of the
Christian myrtars at the stake, and
the hurting of other Christians to the
lions in the Arena. Ursus, giant slave
of Lygia, the beautiful Christian girl,
is shown in battle with the savage
bull, to whose back Nero had caused
his mistress to be bound.
The inhumanities of the tyrant are
aoftened, however, by the tender love
theme of Lygia and Vincius, the
Roman general, and the supreme
faith of the Christians in the teach
lngs of their leader, Peter the Apostle

PAINTED HATS BECOME
THE FASHION IN PARIS

Paris, Dec. 23.-Painted hats have
been adopted by some fashionable
Parisennes this winter, dispensing
with all such trimmings as buckles
and fastners.
This mode is not very popular with
the miIliners because with few def
mite strokes of the brush an artist
can transform a shabby velour or felt
hat into a chic and seemingly new
article.
Husbands have little cause to re-
joice over any economizing in connec-
ton with this novelty for some women
insist on having signed masterpieces
by fashionable painters at the usual
fashionable prices.

YOUNG GIRL PASSES
COUNTERFEIT COINS

Denver, Dec. 20.-A band of coun-
feiters, including young woman, has
been victimizing Denver merchants
during the Christmas trade rush of
the past two days with spurious sill
yer coins, Rowland K. Goddard, chief
of the United States secret service
bureau here, disclosed tonight.
The bogus coins consist of dollars,
half dollars and quarters.
Besides merchants, newsboys also
have been victims of the band, God
dard said. The young woman is said
to have been distributor of the coins,
making small purchases in stores and
from newsboys, and receiving genuine
money for the counterfeit pieces.

There is always danger of vegetable
odors when the cream is kept in the
cellar to keep it from freezing. A
tank of cold water where the air is
pure is practically as important in the
winter as in the summer for keeping
the cream in first class shape until
it IS delivered TO the creamery.-A. J.

Paul.
