MONTE ATTACK
DEFEATS LOCALS
REDWOOD FALLS HIGH TEAM
BOWS TO FAST MONTE AGGRE-
CATION IN HOMECOMING. AR.
NETT OUT FOR SEASON,

At the Montevideo high school
homecoming game Saturday, Novem-
Der 5th the Redwood Falls team lost
by 27 to 0 count. The entire Mont
evideo backfield gained at will be-
hind good interference and blocking
by the Monte line. Although out
classed the locals fought hard and
pluckily throughout. In this game
Captain Arnett suffered a badly
sprained ankle that will keep him out
of the game with Sleepy Eye, the
last game of the season.
Friday, November 3rd, the Redwood
Falls Seconds suffered their first de-
feat of the season from the Olivia
high school seconds. The game was
played on the Redwood Falls Fair
grounds field after the regular school
hours. The local team could not stop
the line rushes Of its much larger op-
ponents; at the final whistle the To-
Gals were on the short end of "a to
0 count. This game ended the sea-
sons football activities for the sec
ond stringers. Upon three previous
occasions the locals defeated the Delhi
High School team two different times
and Milroy High School once, ending
the season with three wins and loss.
On Armistice Day, Friday, Noven,-
ber 11th, the first team will end its
season in the annual struggle with
the Sleepy Eye high school team. The
game will be played on the local
ground and is scheduled to start at
2:30 p. m. With Captain Arnett out,
the game will no doubt be one Of
the thrillers of the season. The local
team was picked to avenge the de-
feat of last season, now the outcome
is greatly in doubt. Suffering from
the attack from Montevideo the Red
wood Falls gridders will be out to
wind up the season with clean VIC
tory and deserve the support of all
football fans.

BER IL. 1900 MEMBERS LOCAL
CHAPTERS QUOTA.

The annual roll call of members q
the Red Cross will open in Redwood
Falls on November 18th, according tt
an announcement Tuesday made by A
D. McRae, Red Cross Roll Call Chair.
man of Redwood County. Redwood
Falls has always had a strong mem.
bership in this organization and it Is
expected that larger number will be
enrolled this year.
Committees are busy preparing for
Commemorative membership in Red
wood Falls, Redwood Falls township
Honnor township, Paxton township
and North Redwood.
Mr.. McRae, this week received q
telegram urging the chapter to in
crease it's membership to 1900 as part
of a campaign to raise the national
membership to 5,O00,00O. Increased
demands on the organization for SER
vice in disaster relief was given as
the chief cause for the desired in
crease.
The telegram came from William
M. Baxter, Jr., of st. Louis, who is
assistant Vice Chairman of the AM
erican Red Cross, and reads:
Central committee has adopted re-
solution requesting people of the
United States to increase the national
Red Cross membership to 100000
for 1928, stating in substance that
the increase was necessary because of
increased demands for service, par
ticularly disaster relief, and that des-
pite most rigid economy of operation
the national and international Red
Cross program requires each year ex-
penditures considerably in excess Of
the annual income. With complete
confidence the American people will
rally to this call, central committee
urges each chapter branch to take the
necessary steps to assure such in
crease. Suggest 1900 members as
the goal of your chapter"

TAX SALE WILL BE
HELD NOVEMBER IA
DELINQUENT TAXES CAN BE
PAID AT SAVING EXCEPT
WHERE SPECIAL ASSESS
MENTS ARE INCLUDED.

The delinquent tax sale which will
be held this year on November 14th,
is an important sale to any who wish
to clean up any delinquent taxes
which are outstanding against their
property, and, also to any who wish to
buy up tax titles as an investment,
as the purchase of these tax titles
means that the property bought be-
comes as nearly as possible the OBJ
solute property of the purchaser as
a tax title can give.
Special assessments, such as ditch,
survey, sewer, or sidewalk, or other
special assessment taxes do not come
under the provisions of the 1927 law
and must pay full penalty, interest
and cost.
Under the 1927 law relating to this
matter the forfeited tax sale to be
held November 14th by the county
auditor is the last opportunity for
owners of real estate to pay taxes
for less than the amount due.
If settlement is made now the total
amount of taxes originally assessed,
plus the penalty, interest and costs
will have to be paid or the state will
take absolute title in five years from
the date Of this sale.
If the owner does not redeem his
property at this sale, anyone wishing
TO buy the tax certificates may do SO
at the reduced amount and perfect
title to the real estate.

part with them, they have sacrificed
this fine trip to save their pets that
they may grow to be big sheep.

MERCIAL CLUB HAS LARGE
ATTENDANCE.

The Redwood Falls Commercial
Club held it's first of series of Ban
quet-Business meetings at the Hotel
Ramsey Monday night, November T.

men and men interested in the affairs

Rud Stensvad, all past presidents of
the organization made up the pro-
gram for the evening.
The three principle speakers all
stressed the Importance of coopera-
ton in community affairs. This was
best borne out by DR.. Linn who stat
ed that Redwood Falls had many nat
ural advantages which other cities
were without; that the impression
gathered from first visit to
Redwood Falls by an outsider
was always favorable. To keep this
impression the people of the corr
munity must work together; the best
that can be had must be by team work
and that team work would solve any
problem of the community. DR..
Linn's talk was versed from actual
experiences in community affairs.
Immediately after the banquet the
business meeting followed in which
the minutes of the October meeting
were read and stood approved. The
membership committee reported that
the dues were all collected with the
exception of six members. A total
of 109 members are in good stand

KIDNEYS NEED LOTS
OF WATER At Times
If Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers, Also Take a
Little Salts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, sometimes get slug
gish and clogged and need flushing
occasionally, else we have backache
and dull misery in the kidney region,
severe headaches, rheumatic twinges,
torpid liver, acid stomach, sleepless-
ness and all sorts of bladder disor-
ders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean and the mo-
ment you feel an ache or pain in the
kidney region begin drinking lots of
water. Also get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any good drug
store here, take a tablespoonful in
a glass Of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys
will then act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is intended to flush clogged kid
neys and help stimulate them to &C
tivity. 1t also helps neutralize the
acids in the urine so they no longer
irritate, thus helping to relieve blad-
der disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia water
drink which everybody should take
now and then to help keep their kid
neys clean.
A well-known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who
