Sank Centre Wins First
Place at Glenwood Contest
Students of Public Schools Acquit
Themselves With Credit
Miss Larson in Finals

The sub-district defamation
contest for this section was held
Wednesday evening of last week
at Glenwood. The towns Compel
ing were Glenwood, Cyrus, Star
buck and Sank Centre. All three
divisions were represented.
The Sank Centre contestants
were Carlyle Key, with the ora
ton, "Tlhe True Science of Civil
ation," Edith Ireland in the hum
orous reading, "Mary Agnes Pre-
tended" and Esther Larson dra-
matte, "The Colors."
Sank Centre returned with first
place in the Dramatic division and
received second in the other two.
In the Humorous Sank Centre tied
for first place by rank with Star
buck, making it necessary to
average the judges decision on
the percentage basis. Miss Ire
land lost by one per cent which
gave first to Starbuck.
Glenwood took first honors in
oratory. The district contest to
which Esther Larson will go will
probably be next week, but the
time and place has not yet been
decided.

Pensions Will Not Be
Paid Until July First

Washington, March T.
After assessing the effect of
the senate's failure to act on
the deficiency appropriation
bill, interior department offic-
ials have concluded there is
no way to furnish funds for
payment in May and June of
Mexican, Civil, Indian and
Spanish war pensions, or to
make remittances-to about 20
widows of veterans of the
War of 1872.
1t is the intention of the
department. to make the pay
ments as soon as funds for
the next fiscal year become
available July 1.
The bills failure, affects
1000 widows and seven veter-
ans Of the Mexican war, APP
proximately $50, 900 Civil war
ESQ, 900 Spanish war, which
includes the Chinese and
Philippine insurrections, and
about 1000 Indian war PEN

Proposed "Stop" Crossing
Regulations Is Discussed
To Lessen Traffic Delays, Increase
Respect for Law and Promote
Safety, Is Aim

"Stop" should mean "stop," de-
,nitely and for everybody, other
wise stop signs at crossings are
of little value, was the consensus
of opinion at a conference of
members of the State Railroad and
Warehouse commission, officials of
the State Highway department and
railroad officials held last week.
That a large percentage of mo-
florists disobey the law requiring
stops at designated crossings is
well known, and the commission
listened to suggestions intended to
remedy this situation. It was re-
cognized that each crossing pre-
SCENTS a separate problem and the
commission plans to make re-
survey and to order changes where
they are found advisable. 1t was
pointed out that there is both an
economic loss and an invitation to
disregard of law when several
thousand vehicles are compelled to
stop at a crossing where perhaps
there are only a half dozen or "a
dozen trains a day. The most

President Likes
Lakes of MINI.
Mr.. Coolidge's Agent to Visit the
Black Hills, and Estates in
North Star State.

Washington, March Am ag-
ent for President Coolidge will go
west shortly to pick a vacation site
for him-and indications are it
will be the Black Hills of South
Dakota, Estes Park Colorado, or
the lakes region of Minnesota.
Fifty palatial estates and ran
ches from the Great Lakes to the
Pacific have been offered by citi-
zens and organizations for what
will be the first summer vacation
ever spent in the west by presi-
dent.
Invitations also came from Ma
ckinac Island, Mich, Yellowstone
National Park, Wyo., Salt Lake
City, Utah, and Montana. The la
test invitation came today from
Senator Lenroot, who asked the
President to visit Wisconsin.
There are two considerations
uppermost in the Presidents mind
altitude to furnish relief from
his nose fever, and nasal disorder
and facilities to care for the ret
inue of White House attaches who
must be transferred with the exc
cutive office.
In the Black Hills, 80 miles
from Rapids City, S. D., there is
a game lodge which friends have
informed him would suit his pur-
pose, while Estes Park in Colo
RADIO and several private estates
in Minnesota, the names of which
have not been divulged, also are
being favorably considered.

Local Legion Unit
Goes Over the Top
Robert James Swift Post Has
Large Membership for 1927
Commander Makes Statement

At the regular monthly meeting
of Robert James Swift Post Of the
American Legion Monday, March
7th, much enthusiasm and pride
was manifested over the success
of the Post in securing the quota
of membership allotted it by the
State Headquarters office in st.
Paul. The 1927 quota was 80
but the Post now has 90 members
and Post officers are confident
that within the next 80 days the
membership will be 100 strong.
Membership in the American Le-
gion will mean more and more to
the ex-service man as the year goes
by. Much good has been accom-
plished by the Legion in securing
legislation that has particularly
benefited the ex-soldier who was
unfortunate enough to become dis
abled in the world war. Even 10
cally the Legion Post has proved
to be of great assistance handling
matters effecting ev service m. /
such as securing the government
compensation certificates, govern
ment compensation, converted in
surance, etc.
Commander Krallm of Robert
Swift Post has this 70 say: eff va
are eligible to join the American
Legion and live near Sank Centre
and have not yet become a MEM
Der of the Legion, you are cordial
ly invited to get il touch with any
of the local Legion officers who
will be pleased to forv ard your ap-
plication for membership. The
annual dues are So, for which you
will receive in addition to the us
ual benefits, membership in the
Sank Centre Com nunity CT ID
which in itself is ~rrth a go,d
ceal more than it costs to be-
come a member Of the American
Legion.

Frank Pesheck
Has High Herd
Is Grade Holsteiens of Sank Cen
tire Man Average 541s Pounds
Butterfat in January

A few days ago Frank Pesheck,
well known Getty township farm
er, received notice from the State
Farm School authorities that his
herd of 16 grade Holsteiens stood
highest in the production of but
terfat of any herd in the 81 cow
testing associations in the state.
In the month of January, 1927,
this herd of 16 cows produced 1410
pounds of milk with an average of
541a pounds of butterfat. Mr..
Pesheck's check from the Sank
Lake Cooperative creamery for
the month of January was over
$440.22. His check for February
was something over $416.
Mr.. Pesheck was one of the pro-
motors of the Sank Centre Cow
Testing Association and after the
organization had been working one
month and he found out what his
cows were doing he began to
build up his herd. He is one of
the progressive farmers of West
ern Stearns county who works
along intelligent lines, which is
adequately proven by what his 16
grade Holsteins are doing today. !,
Mr.. Pesheck is close student
of proper feeding for his dairy
herd and for some time he has
been using Purina stock food pur-
chased through the Central MINI.
Power & Milling company and
the results obtained show in Mr..
Pesheck's cream checks of the
past two months.
