$4,000 Minnesota Ex-Ser-
vice Men Get Call for Ac-
tion-Last Notice
INSURANCE EXPLAINED
Seven Kinds of Life Policies
Guaranteed by Fed
eral Government
INSURANCE EXPLAINED

The government Of the United
States has issued a call to ap-
proximately 10000 former veter-
ans in Minnesota, which must be
answered by midnight on July 2.
This is a final appeal to veterans
of the World War, who have al
lowed their government insurance
to lapse. The government agency
handling this matter is the United
States Veterans Bureau. The Min
neapolis Regional office of this bu-
reau states that fully 60 per cent
of the eligible men in Minnesota,
approximately 10000 I'm number,
have not taken advantage of this
benefit offered by the government
According to the statements of
prominent local members of SER
vice organizations, there is NO
benefit which the government has
provided for service men, which is
so extensive and so productive of
economic good to service men as
government insurance.
The following outstanding facts
should be remembered concerning
this insurance: 1t is participating.
1t has liberal cash surrender, loan
and extended insurance values.
Each policy contains a permanent
and total disability clause at no
expense to the policy holder. The
benefits of this permanent and to-
tai disability clause will become eff
fective even though the only cause
of permanent and total disability
is the lack of physical vigor caused
by advancing age. All overhead
expenses, after the policy is taken
out, are borne by the Federal gov
eminent. 1t is guaranteed by the
United States Government and the
liabilities under the policy will be
ait all times carried by the govern
ment. There are seven kinds OF
policies to meet the needs of all.
It is available to men, who were
disabled during the service, provid-
ing their disabilities are not per-
manent and total.

Stearns County's Biggest Fair July IA
Bank Alarm Cause
of Much Excitement

Sank Centre citizens were
aroused and greatly alarmed
early Tuesday evening at
about 10 o'clock when en-
trance was gained through the
door of the Merchants Ma
tional Bank at the corner of
Main and Third Streets, and
the vault tempered with
which set the burglar alarm
off disturbing the peace and
quiet of the evening for
period of ten or fifteen min
utes.
Crowds gathered at all
four corners of the intersec-
ton, but were a trifle leary
about going too near the
building. Telephones were
changing in the homes of en-
ployees of the bank. Police
investigation was started as
soon as the police department
was located, and with no shots
fired, it was discovered that
the burglar" was John H.
Hansen, cashier of the bank,
who entered il and desper-
ately attempted to shut off the
alarm which had been set on
the wrong number of the
vault and accidently went off.
Wrong numbers are bad in
banks as well as in Telephone
offices, well anyway the
alarm works.

Long Fingers Get
"Wet Paint" Supply

Evidently someone is going
to have a cheap paint job on
their house or garage some
time soon according to recent
happenings at the home of
Mrs. Ella Pangburn. Oakley
kobler had been painting the
exterior of the house and at
night stored his supplies in
garage leaving it unlocked.
Tuesday morning when he
came to resume his work he
had nothing to work with.
Someone had entered the
garage early Tuesday morn
ing between IL and o'clock
and awaited themselves of
four gallons of linseed oil
and gallon of white lead
besides numerous paint
brushes. Estimated value of
which exceeds SIS. Perhaps
someone is going into the
painting business and if they
are all we can say is that they
got a good start with no in
vestment.

Believe 1t Or Not''
Weeds Stop Train

With the hot weather up
on us again it is the desire
of every warm blooded per-
SON to seek some means of
refreshing the body and mind
which becomes sluggish and
groggy.
In the instance of the mind
there is nothing like an am
biguous story with local and
humorous touch.
Believe it or not, but it's
the weeds! We have heard
that the N. P. branch running
through Sank Centre and in
tersecting the original main
street are going to cut the
weeds off their right of way.
Weeds are a very harmful
species of plant;-We all
learned that in school. Some
weeds are poisonous to the
human system if taken inter-
nally, for instance the dande-
lion. There are others that
are extremely harmful when
brought in contact with the
body externally such as the
cactus and poison ivy.
Some say that if a COW
eats certain kids of weeds
she'll die. If a dog eats
weeds, it's going to rain, but
when a freight train gets
stuck in the weeds between
here and Westport and can't
move, it may not rain or
cause any loss of life, but
all agree that the weeds
should be exterminated i'm
mediately if not sooner.

ARMY PLANE MAKES
HONOLULU FLIGHT

1t Takes the Fastest Steam
er Six Days to Make
This Trip
NEW FLIGHT RECORD

Wheeler Field, Island Oahu,
Hawaii, June 29-First to make
the 2,400-mile flight between San
Fransicso and Honolulu, the army
fiers Its. Lester J. Maitland and
Albert Hegenberger arrived here
at 6:22 a. m. today.
The army f1iers, who left Oak
land, CAL, at 1909 a. m. yesterday
finished their trans-Pacific flight in
25 hours and 43 minutes.
Throughout their long flight ov-
er the Pacific they had been seen
only once-by the steamer Homo
ma, when $50 miles from the Cali
fornia coast.
The army fiiers came in through
the bright sunshine that had clear
ed away the rain and gloom of the
night that shrouded their landing
place. X
Thousands who had waited
through the long night had begun
to dispense when Maitland and
Hegenberger came down through
the haze to a triumphant landing.
1t fell to the lot of the army to
bring the Hawaiian Islands, out
post of American defenses, within
one day of the country's mainland
The fastest steamer traverses
the broad waters of the Pacific in
which no land intervenes, in from
five and a half to six days.
Maitland and Hegenberger by
their successful flight, supple
mented the pioneer work began
August 81, 1925 by their brothers
of the navy. On that date three
giant planes of the navy made the
first attempt to cross the Pacific
from SanFrancisco Bay to Ha.
wall. One plane failed to rise
anther fell into the sea 800 miles
off shore, and the third, containing
John Rodgers, and three other men
came down 800 miles short of then
destination. For nine days they
drifted with their seaplane and
were picked up when hope had
| been almost abandoned.
In their flight of approximately
24OO miles Maitland and Hegen-
berger completed the longest trans
oceanic airplane flight ever &C.
complished.
The landing was made on a rain
soaked field.
The flight exemplified the ad.
vance which aviation has taken

flew without such support, and in
a landing plane that would have
foated two to three hours. They
had, however, a pneumatic life

From the time they passed
through the golden gate and be.
gan their traverse of the miles OF
landless Pacific, the army fiers
had been definitely reported seer
only once before they reaehed Ha'
