Mrs. Tubbs Knew Grand
father Of Col. Lindbergh
Mother of Fond du Lac Man
Helped Save His Life When
He Lost Arms

An anecdote concerning the in
cident in which the grandfather Oh
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, trans
atlantic flight hero, lost his arm on
a saw on Minnesota farm is con-
tained in a letter received by II.
B. Tubbs of this city from his
mother, Mrs. L. E. Tubbs of Los
Angeles.
'In the year 1860 we moved
from Otsego, Mimi, on the Mis-
sissippi river, to Sauk Centre,
Minn.," Mrs. Tubbs wrote in her
letter. "There were no houses
where the city now stands except
a log house built for the purpose
of boarding men working a saw
mill on the Sauk river. While we
were waiting to build house on
our homestead, we lived in this
log house and boarded the men.
stOne day a man ran up from
the mill and said a settler who had
come for lumber had fallen on the
saw and cut his arm off. They
sent men from the missionary anJ
brought the man to this boarding
mouse. The Rev. Mr.. Harrison
bound the arm so he would not
bleed to death and / wrapped hin
up in quilt brought from my
home in Maine, and he was taker
in a lumber wagon to st. Cloud
about so miles away, to the near.

sThis man lived and was The
father of Congressman Lindbergf
and the grandfather of Capt
Dndbergh, the hero of today. So
] am glad I did what could tt
help Mr.. Harrison save the life Of
the grandfather Of this great man.
The same incident as reported
by the Rev. C. S. Harrison, now Of
York, Neb., was described in "The
Life of Capt. Charles Lindbergh,

and other officers and members of
the Agricultural Society, adverris-
ing the Stearns County Fair which
will be held at Sank Centre July
1, 2, 3, and A, Friday Saturday,
Sunday and Monday. Jos. Kusba
and Charles Miller organized a
snappy jazz band to introduce the
party to the various points visited.
The delegation left the city
shortly after 7:30 a. m. The first
stop was made at Melrose. The
itinery included the following
places: Melrose, New Munich,
Freeport, Albany, Holdingford,
Avon, st. Johns st. Joseph, st.
Cloud. The delegation had lunch
at the Granite City where couple
of hours were spent. The after
noon route will take them to
Rockville, Cold Spring, Richmond,
Roscoe, Paynesville, Lake Henry,
Spring Hill, Greenwald and Metre
Grove. They expect to arrive in
Sauk Centre about 6:3O o. m.
If weather conditions are fa-
vorable an afternoon trip will be
made to Brooten and Belgrade
some day next week. =.
Friday will be entry day only.
Farmers can exhibit grains and
seeds grown in 1926. Inquiries
are coming in to Secretary Hitler
nd in a satisfactory manner and
everything points to the largest ex-
hibit of pure bred live stock ever
shown in Central Minnesota.
The fair proper starts Satur-
day. This has been designated as
Dairy Day. Hugh E. VanPelt,
world famous cow judge and cow
feeder will give his COW judging

at las p. m. Mr.. VanPelt will
use live animals for his demon

Albany and Holdingford promises
to be a humdinger. The rivalry
between these aggregations is at
fever heat. Albany has just won
the pennant for first half of the
500 Line League, and Holdingford
was only a step behind. There is
nothing to prevent the teams from
'1oading" for this game. The
purse of $3.50 is very attractive
and will be divided rs and 25 per
cent. John Donaldson, Bertha fa-
nous colored pitcher, has been
booked to umpire this game. He
will have full charge and it will be
up to both teams to play ball all
the way.

gates Land Convention
at Park Rapids :.
HUNDREDS ARE COMING
State Officers Address Bud
dies at Monday Evenings
Banquet

Sauk Centre will be host to the
Sixth District convention of the
American Legion and Woman's
Auxiliary to be held in June 1928.
This years convention was held
at Park Rapids Monday and Tues
day of this week. The representa-
tives of Robert Swift Post of Sauk
Centre attended the Park Rapids
convention with instructions to bag
the 1928 convention for this city.
The delegation consisted of
Past Commander Arthur Weisner,
Harold N. Bishop and Thos. R.
Clough.
The local gentlemen had not
been on the ground long before
they discovered that they would
have stiff opposition, as Staples
had well organized plan to carry
off the persimmons.
With characteristic "Main
Street" zeal the Sank Centre men
put on their fighting togs and at an
early hour Tuesday morning they
had the little old convention hog
tied. OF course it was necessary
to have the selection formally rat
flied by the convention proper
Tuesday forenoon.
Staples saw the handwriting on
the wall and like good sports fell
in line and made the selection OF
this city unanimous.
According to reports there
was considerable sentiment eX-
pressed for H. N. Bishop as Dis
trict commander. The Sauk Gen.
tire man did not approve of this
move as it might have created the
impression that Sauk Centre was
out to clean the decks. He was Sc
lected as third Vice Commander.
Park Rapids entertained their
guests royalty. AT the banquet
Monday evening served by the
Methodist ladies something over
800 men and women were in at
tendance. Addresses were made
at the banquet by State Com
mander Rufus Rand of Minneap-
oils, State Adjutant Edward Lin
dell, of St. Paul; Mrs. Bertha
Bishop of Thief River Falls, state
president of the Woman's Auxil-
iary, and others.
The Park Rapids program is
said to have been one of the most
practical and constructive ever
given at a district meeting. There
were many practical suggestions
which the local Posts can follow
with profit.
Mrs. Libbie Weisner and Miss
Veronica Paul of this city repre-
sented the Robert Swift Post Aux
iliary at the convention.
DIR. c.. D. Nidig of Akin was
elected district Post commander,
and Mrs. j. A. Forester of st.
Cloud was elected president of the
Woman's Auxiliary for the sixth
district.
Mike Murry, newspaper man of
st. Cloud, is the retiring presi-
dent of the Sixth. He handled the
affairs of the meeting like vet
eran, ruling fairly and expediting
the business. 81
Because of the advantageous To-
cation of Sauk Centre it is expect
ed that the 1928 convention will
be the most largely attended in
the district since organization.
The Commander Herman Krohm
and other officers and members
are on their toes even this early
to make the convention a hummer.
They have an intensive campaign
OH to raise money for the event.
You can help them. Investigate
their plan.

1t renewed hopes of a reduction in New

but after the close of the market the

Time money and commercial paper

railroad shares was stimulated by in

Pennsylvania and Loree railroad in
terests to offset the coup of the other
three eastern trunk line systems in
obtaining control of the Wheeling and
Lake Erie and Western Maryland
roads. No official confirmation of such
reports could be obtained however,

Grain Market

CHICAGO, Feb. II (P.-Prospects of
cold wave that may do damage to
domestic winter wheat tended to lift
wheat values today. There was talk,
too, of large export sales at Winnipeg.
Wheat closed firm, 4 cent to II cent
net higher, with corn unchanged to n
cent off, oats unchanged to Il cents up
ard provisions showing 10 to 15@17
cents advance
Reports that nearly 100000 bushels
of Canadian wheat had been bought
for Portugal gave an early upward
slant to the Chicago market. There
was also talk current that from 2,00O,-
600 to 100000 bushels of rye had been
sold for export. Confirmation was
lacking both as to wheat and rye, but
strength of the Winnipeg wheat mar
ket tended, nevertheless, to encourage
belief that liberal export business in
breadstuffs from North America had
been put through. Meanwhile the Can
adian growers pool was said to have
ordered that no further sales of wheat
future deliveries were to be made at
Winnipeg. Expectance of a cold wave
for the winter wheat belt in the
United States aroused considerable
apprehension, as the temperature col
lapse will catch part of the crop with
out a snow blanket. Notice was also
taken that official estimates of yields
of bread grains for 1926 in Europe, ex-
elusive of Russia, are 100000 bushels
short of 1926, and that requirements
are increased by 20 per cent reduction
of the European potato crop. The fact
that 1SO,0O0,OOO bushels more wheat is
available in North America and the
Southern hemisphere failed to act as
counterbalance.
Corn and oats We're bearishly af-
fected by reports that Ohio and In
diana are offering grain in the east at
about l cent under the price which
Chicago handlers offer.
Colder weather also was expected to
enlarge the interior crop movement.
Provisions were responsive to pack
ers buying and to strengthening of
the market for cotton oil.
