ry was trained by the Oberammer-
qua actors in Bavaria and will give
presentation which will long be
remembered. The gentleman is q
world traveller and lecturer of ma
tlcna, reputation and is under con-
tract with the leading bureaus and
Chatauquas. 1t is only through a
for Innate incident that DR.. Berry has
beer secured and the people of Sank
Centre are promised a never to be
forgotten treat.
The 30: Id of Education will not
make any c',arge for this presenta-
ton, as they are deserious that every
body shall see it and will rely upon
a silver Offering to reimburse DR..
Berry There will be no reserved
seats and a full house is expected, so
Come early and you will not be dis
Amounted.

All Minnesota Hunters
Must Report Game Killed
Complete Check-Up System to Be
Enforced This Year, Says Com
missioner Jay Gould

Sportsmen can hunt next fall
only on provision that they have fill
ed out their 1925 hunting license re-
ports and have mailed them in to
the office of State Game Fish Com
missioner Jay Gould within thirty
days after the close of the season.
Since the small game season in Min
nesota closed on Dec. 81 this means
that reports must be in the hands of
the commissioner by Feb. 1.
An announcement to county audi
tors is being made by the commits
sioner that he has prepared card in
dex system for hunters who fail to
turn in their License reports that will
put a final stop to negligence in this
regard. Some thousand hunters in
Stearns county were issued small
game hunting licenses last fall and
those who had them must report on
the game killed before Feb. or suf-
fer being issued no license next fall.
For several years there has been a
law in Minnesota stating that the
holder of a small game license must
report ito the game and fish commits
sioner within thirty days of the close
killed under that license. The law
has not been enforced strictly in this
respect. This law was made in ord
er that adequate check might be kept
in this state on the number of game
birds killed each season, thus enabl-
ing the game and fish department to
know what laws needed attention
when game birds showed alarming
dec1 eases.
The law has been generally ignor-
Ell for several years and all records
have been kept in such slovenly
shape that no check-up could be
made against hunter when he APP
peared for a new license. Mr.. Gould
has now worked out a system of re-
ports that will be used this fall and
which every county auditor must OBJ
serve. Each official will be required
to check the application for license
against the previous years report
and when the applicant is delinquent
the official must refuse to issue
new license. When errors are thus
made the correction must be made
by the state authorities and not by
the county auditor who will be for
hidden to issue debated licenses.
Each hunting license bears post
card report which the license is re-
quired to fill out and mail to the
state capitol within thirty days after
the season closes. Hunters know
what these rep .rt cards are and
fould make it point to fill out their
reports at once and Immediately
mail them to tie offices of ii !. game
and fish collmi s5ieh.

Big Improvement In Butter
Market Over Last Week
Heavy Supply Forces Down Poultry
Prices In East-Large Shipments
of Foreign Birds Received

The better condition noted in the
butter market, as reported in oul
previous Review, was further extend
ed during the past week and condi'
tions are even more favorable today
The Chicago market on 80 score
standards is quoted at 43A cents, as
compared with AZ cents week ago.
At New York the advance on ex.
tras has been more marked, 90 score
quoted at 46 cents, compared with
43k cents, the quotation on January
18.
There has been a slight falling of
in receipts of butter at Chicago, New
York, Boston and Philadelphia, al
though the make in creameries is
reported a little heavier. Probably
this can be explained by the greater
use of butter in the producing Sec
tions.
Most of the foreign butter arriv-
ing in New York is being placed in
storage in bond, ana will move out
only when markets advance to a
parity with foreign markets, plus a
duty of cents per pound.
Prices on butterfat throughout the
~ooheiy SCiiCI dily ICllSCG UdlS U6IU6I
markets ruling on butter.
Live poultry receipts at New York
last week were large considering the
requirements, reporting up to 173
cars with SIS cars carried over from
the previous week. This supply
forced the quotations to 80 cents in
New York for live fowl.
Receipts of dressed poultry show
little change from the previous week
at the -four leading markets of the
country. At Chicago, New York,
Boston and Philadelphia the prices
fairly sustained with the exception of
signs of little accumulation of fresh
fowl; the selling prices may have to
be reduced to keep the stocks NOV

Music lovers of Sank Centre have
a real treat in store for them next
Thursday, February 4th, when the

appearance as the third number on
the local Lyceum Course program
The Royal Welsh Male Quartet rep

thrilled the world with their music :.
This wonderful organization made
several successful tours OF England
and Wales before coming to Amer
lea, and since their arrival IN TINS
country, New York City, Chicago,
Boston, Cleveland, and other large
cities have welcomed them.

every year, in the month of August,
there is held a National COMPETITIVE
Musical Festival in Wales to foster
and find out singers and musicians
and give them a chance, if they are
successful, of winning one OF the
coveted prizes offered by this Festl-
val.
From these Festivals, wonderful
singers are located, and quite a
number are making splendid reputa-
tions in America and Canada. The
ROYAL Welsh Male Quartet is one OF
these groups that has been enthus-
iastically received in America.
To most music lovers a good male
quartet ranks high in entertainment
qualities. Welshmen are known all
over the world for their wonderful
voices, so it will be real treat for
Sank Centre to hear this splendid Or
ganization of artists.
The personnel of the company is as
follows: Clyde Moffett, first tenor;
Ralph Walker, baritone and accom-,
PIANIST; Ben Davies, second tenor and
manager, D. Edgar Davies, bass.

Senate to Open Johnson
Schall Hearing Today
Forty Witnesses Are Lined Up But
the Elections Committee Will
Hear Only Five

Washington, D. C.-Jan. 26-Hear-
ing on the petition filed by Magnus
Johnson for the expulsion of Thomas
D. Schall from the United States SEN
ate will be- started on Thursday, ii
was finally determined today. That
date has been tentatively set and
witnesses have been summoned.
E. E. Smith, Minneapolis, counsel
for Schall, conferred today with Sen
ator Deneen, Illinois, chairman of
the subcommittee of the committee
on privileges and elections. The mat
ter Of procedure was discussed. De-
spite the statements of attorneys for
Johnson that they hoped to call 40
witnesses, it was made plain here that
the committee is in no mood to hear
more than the original five it asked
for.
1t is not believed that the Schall-
Johnson hearing will not take more
than two days at the most.
Witnesses and attorneys who are to
appear at the Schall-J ohnson hearing
include Peter A. Cosgrove, and Frank
Cornesby, both connected with the
Schall headquarters in the 1924 cam
paign, and three former dry force di-
rectors, S. B. Qvale, Maurice Silver
man and A. G.. Townsend.

ed that they would leave for Wash

Accredited u. S. Highways
Added to Minnesota List
Public Roads Bureau Designates
Three More State Routes for Long
Distance Government Markings

Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, this week made
public designations by the Bureau of
Public Roads of three additional Min
nesota trunk routes to carry the new
U. S. Highway markers for the guild
ance of interstate travellers. Nearly
800 miles is added to the total of
Minnesota roads selected which is now
nearly half of the state highway sys-
tenn. The announcement is rated of
statewide Importance because it
means the drawing of larger numbers
of tourist and other long-distance
travellers ito Minnesota routes and
more business for all cities and
towns on them.
U. S. Highway numbers to be as
signed later, the added routes fol-
low:
T. H. Nos. ~ and 49-From Will
mar through Raymond, Clara City,
MonteVideo, Dawson, Madison and
Marietta, thence west through the
Black Hills in South Dakota.
T. H. No. 40-F,rom Owatonna
through Blooming Prairie, Austin and
Lyle, 0oUI1l lllOO IL"
T. H. Nos. 20 and 50-From Min
neapolis through Lakeville, Farming
ton, Cannon Falls, Zumbrota, Pine
Island, Rochester, Chatfeld, Preston
and Canton and on south into Iowa.
Regulations against designations
of any but federal aid roads prevent
ed continuation of the first route CIV
en- eastward through Hutchinson over
the Short Cut Highway.
Mr.. Babcock said that efforts are
to be made to-erect the U. S. mark
.ers in all states early next spring.
Designations are mainly to aid long
distance travellers to follow inter.
state routes with most ease and con-
venience, as previously explained,
and have no bearing on highway
financing.
