r. ACKETERS Of the District
Women's Tennis League have
IN received their assignments Of
l. matches in the annual round
robin tourney and will play
off their first tilts this week, according
to Ruth Curran. secretary.
A new system of play has been
introduced this season. Each player
has been sent the names of all
opponents she must meet during the
series before the opening of the
schedule instead of receiving one
assignment a week, as was done in
the past. In this way it is hoped to
expedite the completion of the loop,
as players will be able to. challenge
several opponents each week if they
desire to do so. At least one match
week must be played by each team
member, the rules committee has
decreed.
Matches may be played on any
regulation tennis court agreed upon
by the players involved. A default
may be claimed if a player fails to
show up within 20 minutes Of the
time agreed upon for a match. All
results are to be reported to team
leaders as soon as possible after
matches are played.
To Publish Standings Weekly.
Leaders are expected to report
matches completed during the week
TO Miss Curran every Thursday night

Red Cross Roll Call Will
Start Armistice Day
Mrs. H. s. Halverson Will Have
Charge of Membership Drive
In This City

The eleventh annual Roll Call
of the American Red Cross will
start Ar1mistice Day. The Ma
tional Board is calling for 5000
600 members. The need is to be
ready for such emergencies as
arose during the past IL months.
The Stearns County Chapter has
asked to enroll 5000. Mrs. Viii
lard Freeman, of st. Cloud, is
chairman of the Roll Call for the
county. Mrs. H. s.. Halverson,
who successfully handled the Sank
Centre roll call a year ago, has ac-
copied the work again this year.
Sank Centre has always supported
the Red Cross and no doubt will
continue to do so.
If there had been no Red Cross
the 100000 flood sufferers of the
south last spring would have been
in deplorable condition. No one
can hazard a guess when any sec
ton will suffer catastrophe that
will totally paralyize the commun-
ity. Red Cross membership only
costs dollar year, and you can
rest assured that your money will
be wisely expended

Mild Winter for Mime
sofa Red Mans Prediction
Furnace Keepers Need Not Fear
Winter Chores Cass Lake
Indian Says

Cass Lake, Oct. 31AYou hus-
bands who care for the furnace,
find cheer in the words of Old
Northbird.
For Northbird or Rushing Wind,
whose full Chippewa name is Way
waywakgwonayaush, fore
casts a less severe winter than last
year.
Seventy years old, stalwart and
broad, Northbird is a sturdy Chip
pewa who belongs to the old school
Iof Indians and wears his hair in
braids. He and his wife fish in the
river, they have good garden,
and a team.
But he is progressive. His
daughters have all attended the
Wahpeton Indian school, and on
the banks of the Mississippi north
of here he has built a strong log
cabin to protect himself and family
against whatever the winter may
bring.
Z Northbird forecast the present
Indian summer, which was missed
last year in the jump from autumn
to winter. But he is surprised that
there have been so many warm
days.
Northbird says he knows the
winter will not be so severe be-
cause the muskrat houses are very
small and not so tall as last year.
Last year the rats began building
early in September; he said.
Squirrels this year have gather
ed pine cones in piles on logs and
in the brush and have been very
slow to carry them away to store
houses, he said. This indicates a
late winter, he said.
Crows and blackbirds have just
begun to gather in punches and
depart for the south, Northbird
points out, and many Of them are
still here. One small flight of
ducks has come into the lakes
from the north, he said, and that
with snow furries two weeks ago.
Many have since returned back to
other lakes, according to North
bird.

Music Hall Will Be Built
at Collegeville by St. Johns
New 5000, 900 Structure Seating
500 to Be Completed Early
+ly,. Next Spring

Completion of the new $500, 600
auditorium and music hall now
being built at st. Johns University,
has been tentatively set for the
early part of 1928. The building
is not expected to be completed for
use until the latter part of the win
ter. Paul Pappenfus, St. Cloud,
is the contractor. "
Forming with st. Benet hall an
artistic rounding out of the north
end of the college buildings the new
structure will be one of the best
and most attractive on the campus.
The. auditorium is encircled half
way by suites Of rooms to serve
purpose of entertainers and guests.
The seating capacity in the mu-
sic hall will be about 500, larger
than the capacity of the present
auditorium, and the stage and 9th
er facilities Of the auditorium will
be considerably enhanced by all
modern appliances. The basement
story of the new structure will be
used as a tailor shop, shoe shop,
candy store, stationery store and
record office.
Plans also have been submitted
for two other buildings, which are
expected to be erected at st.
Johns An administration and a
college course unit is contemplate
ed. The new college preparatory
building will offer offices for the
dean and treasurer and other adj
ministration officials and will be
of greater convenience to the pub
lie than the present working plan.
Parlors for visitors will be on the
lower floor of the building.
The entire student body as well
as the faculty at st. Johns is
looking forward to the completion
of the music hall because Of the
great development in the music
department interest in music is
general among the students and
faculty at the university. Under
the direction of talented musicians
the college has attained a reputa-
ton for musical culture in the
northwest that is almost unsurpas-
sed even in the larger centers of
education.

BIG AWARDS AWAIT
| CAMPAIGN WORKER
Herald Subscription Cam
paign Is Hitting on All
Cylinders
CLOSES DEC. 20, NOON
Parents Have Opportunity
to Make School Life Of
Riddles Happier

The Rural and Graded Schools
of Western Stearns county are
waking up to the fact that Ia very
critical period in the 1Herald's sub
scription campaign has arrived.
For the benefit of those who
have not been following the an
nouncements in this paper for the
past several weeks telling of the
remarkable things the teachers and
pupils can gain for their schools
through cooperation with this
newspaper in soliciting subscrip-
tons, the facts are these: When
the contest. ends Tuesday, Dec. 20,
1927, at~12 o'clock noon, prizes
consisting of riding devices and
athletic equipment will be distrib-
uted among the schools having the
highest percentage standing, and
the amount of effort that they
will have put into the project
would not begin to compensate for
the freight paid on the prizes they
will win. - ...-,
The facts regarding the contest
to date are that the percentages
are so low that it would be 3 a
cinch for any school to enter the
contest now and work until the
dosing days of the contest and
walk off with the big first prize
the plum of the whole affair. For
the teachers in the rural communi-
ties, this is the ideal time for them
to do come very effective work for
their schools. There is ample time
left in which it is possible for any
teacher to start in and cover their
local territory, and with the CO.
operation of the. parents in their
district, beat any school entered
up to this time. Take advantage
of this opportunity to do something
of real merit for the schools.
There are seven major prizes,
six playground appliances and the
seventh, is per cent refund to the
school standing seventh in the
amount Of money turned it. A
school not a prize winner will be
paid a cash commission of 10 per
cent of the money turned in by the
non winning schools. =
Before the campaign was started
the Herald publishers took the
matter up with County Superin-
tendent of Schools VIM. A Boerg-
err. After the proposition was ex-
planned to him he stated it was the
finest community proposition for
the rural school children that he
knows of. His letter of indorse-
