Sank Centre Man Wins Hard
Fought District Court Case
Joseph Dirnberger, Defendant In Ac-
ton Given Verdict Of $1.4S2.66
Saturday Afternoon

A case which occupied the atten.
ton of the Stearns County District
Court for eight days came to close
Saturday afternoon when Joseph
Dirnberger of this city was given 8
verdict of $1,482. Sc against the
Baker Ice Machine Co. of Omaha
Neb.
In 1921 Mr.. Dirnberger installed
an automatic ice making machine in
the Corner Meat Market, of this city {.
Mr.. Dirnberger contended that the
machine was far short of specifics
TONS, and he refused to settle claim
of the company for $500 90. In
stead he put in counter claim fol
$2,700 for loss of meat because OF
the faulty construction of the ma
chine.
The case was given to the jury
Saturday morning and after being
out for five. and one-half hours
brought the verdict mentioned above.
The plaintiffs claim was for extra
equipment installed which Dirnberg-
er refused to pay. Mr.. Dirnberger
admitted that the equipment i'm

THROUGH PASSENGER
HITS LOADED TRUCK
BROWERVILLE YOUNG MEN
HAVE NARROW ESCAPE
FROM DEATH
EGGS BADLY SCRAMBLED
TRUCK ON TRACK WHEN RAP.
IDLY APPROACHING TRAIN
WAS DISCOVERED

Albert Zech and Raymond Zyjuen
of Browerville miraculously escaped
instant death Monday afternoon when
thew were struck by No. Great
Northern flyer which passes through
this city at 2:40. The accident hap
pened at the railroad crossing one
block north of the depot.
The young men occupied a tWo-ton
Chevrolet truck loaded with poultry
and eggs which they were delivering
from Browerville to Swift & Com
pany in this city
Albert Zech the driver of the truck
stated to the Herald that he did not
see or hear the train until he was
about to cross the track when he re-
allied that it would be an impossi-
bility to stop on account OF the icy
condition of the road. He decided to
try and cross, and the train caught
the back end of the truck with such
force that it was pivoted so that the
front of the machine struck the train
and was completely demolished.
Eye witnesses to the crash stated
that No. 1 was stopped within its
length, and that Zyjuen and Zench had
already extracated themselves from
the debris. They were taken to To-
cal physician and an examination re-
vealed the fact that Zech was only
slightly bruised, and Zyjuen had a
laceration on his right forearm.
The wreck caused messy mess, as
chickens and eggs were scattered In
every direction for hundreds of feet.
A flor fha train canne tO StOD. the
dining car chef is said to have sal
vaged several head of chickens.
There appears to be discrepancy
of opinion as to the responsibility for
the accident. There should, however,
be law compelling all vehicles to
come to complete stop when APP
preaching railroad crossing. Such
a law would save many lives and
thousands of dollars worth of prop
erty each wear.

For several years prior to the
breaking out of the war Grove Wills
was a Herald employee. He was a
clever printer and still cleverer
"staller" on the job, but he had a fac
ulty of making his boss like it. At
that time he was something of a
shrinking violet, quiet, unobtrosive.
Following the close of the war he
drifted to the Iron Range and a few
years ago established the Eveleth
Clarion. Mixing with that bunch of
|roughnecks on the range has rubbed
off some of the culture absorbed in
the Herald office. He is ge-getter
and is one of the most successful pub
fishers in the state. Grove is vice
president/of the Northern Association
and will be elevated to the Presidency
at the Sank Centre meeting.

ALL Interested Attend

A new Crano churn and a new
Wizard vat were installed at the Sank
Lake Cooperative Creamery the lat

The new churn is of 1900 pound
capacity, and is considerably larger
than the one previously in use at the
local plant. The installation was
made necessary by the increased bus
mess. Being shorter of construction
than the old one gives more floor
space.
The new vat is of 400 gallon size,
and lines up perfectly with the. 9TH

MUNICIPAL COURTS ACTIVITY

Sank Centre is a law abiding city,
judging by the records in the office
of Municipal Judge R. R. Kells.
During 1925 only SO arrests were
made in this city. Of this number
Chief of Police Jos. Miller made go
and Night Police Rosenberger three.
Most of the arrests were for misde-
meanors. Many of them were ar
rested under the state statutes and
the fines were turned into the county.
These fines amounted to $500 during
the year.

1t isn't so long ago that the editor
of the Dawson Sentinel was known as

his newspaper brethren believed in
him. He is still "Ted" to the Gang

The only thing that may prevent this

which was inaugurated a year ago as
the result of an offer of $1,000 in
prizes by Clement NJ. Biddle of New
York City. The competition closed
on May IS, which is quite generally
observed as "World Goodwill Day."
Nearly every country on the globe
has been represented in this contest"
Doctor Thomas announced, yester-
day. European countries have been
especially interested. School boys
and girls in England, France, Ger
many. Austria, Latvia, Esthenia,
Spain, Italy. Rumania, Bulgaria
Czochoslovakia Switzerland, and
Greece have evidently taken deep
interest in the subject of real hero
ism If one may judge by the judi
ciously selected characters upon
whom they have written and the
care with which they have prepared
their papers"
Nearly all the foreign lists and es-
says are beautifully penned or typed.
and many are cleverly and some
beautifully illustrated, according to
Doctor Thomas. This careful atten-
ton to detail is characteristic of the
education of the youth in certain
European countries, he says, but,
more than that, it indicated. in this
