Greatest Profession

a There are magazines on the breed
ing of hogs and dogs, the growing
of flowers, the refining Of metals"
explained Hecht, There are mag
azines for laboring men, radio fans,
BARRIERS, beekeepers-for every trade
and profession, except the sgreatest
of all-parenthood.
Billions Of dollars are spent on
schools; but practically nothing is
spent to teach parents how to rear
their children OF $4,000 hours of
child's life between the ages of 5
and 49, only 1000 hours are spent
in school; the other 80 per cent Of
the time is the parents RESPONSE
bility. The new magazine will have
snothing for children to read; it will
consider with parents all the vital
problems Of bringing up children
from the cdib to college"

period are particularly asked to come.

of parents, and those needing medical
attention will be referred to the

AUTOS COLLIDE

A near serious auto accident oc-

Sunday afternoon shortly before one
clock when a Chevrolet Coupe driv-
en- by the salesman of the Consum-
ers store at Little Falls collided with
the Ford coupe owned and driven by
H. R. Chase, salesman of the
Consumers store of this city. The
wreck occurred in front of the G. S.
Bristol home. MIR. Chase accompan-
led by G. S. Bristol manager of the
local store and the manager of the
Little Falls store were driving ahead
and the Chevrolet coupe was follow
ing. The car ahead swung to the
extreme right of the road in order
to make a left turn into the drive
way at the Bristol home. The driver
of the rear car inferred this as an
opportunity to pass and speeded up
to do SO just as the left turn was
made resulting in the collision. The
front axels of both cars were bent
considerably and other smaller parts
were broken. The left front wheel
of the Ford coupe was broken. None
of the occupants of either car were
injured.

at Greenwood-Never Married

John Love a resident of Sank
Centre for 81 years, died at the home
OF his niece, Mrs. George Fish Mon
day, Nov. l., 1926.
The deceased was born in Cody,
Ohio in 1912. He remained in his
native town until he came ITO this
state. He never married and lived
with the McCracken family for many
years. For the past nine years he
made his home with Mr.. and Mrs.

for a long time. He took to his bed
June 20, 1925. During his extended
illness he was given every loving
care and attention by Mr.. and Mrs.

George Fish home on Seventh street
Wednesday afternoon, conducted by
Rev. R. w. Duell of Ortonville,
former pastor of the Methodist
church of this city, and Rev. T. B.
Shorts, local pastor. The remains
were laid ITO rest in Greenwood ceme-
terry.
Mr.. Love was a splendid citizen
of very retiring disposition. The
only relatives living in Sank Centre
were Mr.. and Mrs. Fish and Mrs.
James McCracken and children.
There are many relatives in Ohio,
but none of them were able to attend
the funeral.

Judge JOS. B. Himsl Carries
Stearns But Loses District
Present Congressman's Majority Will
Be In Excess of 5,0O0-Result
Was Generally Expected

Judge Jos. B. Himsl, Farmer-Labor
candidate for Congress from this,
the Sixth Congressional district,
made splendid but losing fight at
Tuesdays election. Where he was
best known, Stearns county, he re-
ceived Ia majority of over 5000.
The Herald, while supporting the
Judge as a protest against the pres
ent incumbent, could not become en-
Unused over his chances of success at
the polls. We were always of the
opinion that he would carry Stearns,
and perhaps Morrison and Benton
counties and that his opponent would
rapidly wipe out this majority in the
other IL counties. We estimated
his majority as in excess of 5000 a
month ago. A dwindling of majori-
ties of 10000 to less than 10000
while it allows the present incumbent
to retain his meal ticket, indicates
that the voters are firing. There will
be another campaign in two years.
The following is the vote on con-
gressmen in Stearns county:

Junior Class Will Present
Mystery Drama Nov. Is
"The Thirteenth Chair" Contains
Thrills and Smiles Galore-A
Splendid Cast Assembled

Thursday evening, Nov. the 18th,
the Junior, Glass of Sank Centre
High School will present Bayard
Veiller's mystery drama "The Thir-
teenth Chair This three-act play
was first produced in the Forty
eighth Street Theatre in New York
and had a long, successful run.
Among amateurs who have used it
in this part of the country, The Ca
thedral Players of st. Cloud deserve
to be mentioned.
The Thirteenth Chair is truly a
drama of mystery. So singeniously
has Mr.. WELLER built his play that It
surpasses most productions of it's
kind in its maintenance OF suspense.
A clairvoyant, supposed to be OF
greater note than other figures OF
this class, is constantly in the fore
ground giving additional stimulation,
necessarily somewhat weird and
creepy, to the quickly flying and
cleverly contrived incidents. Her
final victory over the law is de-
lightful climax.
Though not at all like the mystery
play of last spring, "Seven Keys to
Baldpate, The Thirteenth Chair
has the same element of Suspense not
relieved till the very end. Come and
find out the fate of the occupant of
the Thirteenth Chair"

ED TO HANDLE INCREASING
BUSINESS
A FINE ASSET TO CITY
NJ WERNIG HEAD OF COMPANY
HAS GREATLY DEVELOPED
ORGANIZATION

The Pioneer Ice Cream Company
of Sank Centre have broken ground
and are under way with a new addi-
ton to their present building The
addition has been made necessary
due to the increased business of the
establishment.
The business was established in
Sank Centre in 1918 by the Mime
sofa Produce Co., and at that ti:ae
was one man business. Five years

management of the plant in this city.
Tie business under the energetic
arrangements of Mr.. Wernlg began
to thrive, and each year the volume,
CT production increased.
In january 1922 the business was,
incorporated under the firm name of
Pioneer Ice Cream Company with
Chas. Bohlig, Pres; H. B. Otte Vie
Pres; M. Wernig, secretary, sreasur-
er and manager. The directors were
composed of the above named Of
ficers with the addition of John G.
ftehaus. The Alexandria Ice Cream
Co, Is also owned and operated by
these gentlemen.
The new addition being added ito
the present plant consists of a 24x96
building joining the present struc-
ture on the south, and a 24x3O gar
age on the west. With the new build
ing complete the company plan Ito
modernize the plant completely, and
their manufacturing capacity will be
100000 gallons of Ice Cream an
nually, practically doubling their
present capacity for output.
The refrigeration space will be
enlarged considerably and a new
refrigeration system will be installed.
Floor space will also be supplied for
a show room of the M. Wernig Co. +,
dealers of Frigidaire refrigeration
machines.
Sank Centre can be justly proud Of
this thriving business which few
short years ago was a one man con-
Germ and which today is employing
six men and will in all probability
give employment to more in COM
paratively short time.

Nothing had been heard from Mr..

proposed lettings appeared in Tues
day evening papers there was
much concern in this city. The dis
tance was practically the same as the

mentioned.
The chairman of the Highway COM
unittee got in touch with the Highway
department Wednesday afternoon.
Both Mr.. Babcock and Chief Engi-
neer Ellison We're out of the city but
we were informed that the bids asked
for Nov. 80 contemplated the desig-
mating of the "WSest" route. The
bridge across the na1rows will be
let under a separate bid as soon as
the specifications are definitely decid-
ed upon.
The gentleman talking with the
Herald editor said no official desig-
nation would be made until after Mr..
Babcock's return.
With this condition of affairs exist

assurance that a strenuous fight for
