Bridge Contract to Be
Let December 20
Structure Across Sank Lake VIII
Be in Three 3S-Foot Spans
May Be Built This Winter

All doubt about the bridge
across Sank Lake on Highway No.
A has been dispelled by the asking
for bids by Highway Commissioner
Babcock for the construction. The
bids will be opened Dec. 20. The
specifications call for three 38-foot
spans. 1t is quite probable that
the new bridge may be constructed
this winter.
Nolan Bros, who closed opera
tions a. short time ago, have re-
'sumed grading with the steam
shovel near the Henderson farm,
Sank lake.
A grading job which will re-
quire moving $40 900 cubic yards
Of dirt will be undertaken next
year by the Highway department.
Bids on this and several other
trunk highway projects will be
opened at the offices Of the depart
ment in st. Paul, Dec. 20.
The big Job is on T. H. No. 2,
between Detroit Lakes and Haw-
ley. The yariage is larger than
on any job previously undertaken
by the department, although the
distance, 24.5 miles, is not the
longest. For bidding purposes the
job is divided into two projects.
Bids are also asked on the
grading of No. 5, between Man
kato and St. Peter, on the perma-
nent location recently selected,
east of the present route. The
old road here crosses eleven rail-
road tracks. There will be no

Pastor Begins 18th
Year of Service
Rev. c. S. Sparkes Has Served Lo-
cal Congregational Church
Successfully

Next Sunday, Dec. 4th, will mark
the beginning of the twelfth year
of service of the Rev. C. S. Spa1kes
with the local Congregational
church. Called from Sleepy Eye,
Mimi, in the year 1915 after a
successful pastorate of five years
the pastor has brought to the peo-
pie Of this church a splendid lead
ership.
During his pastorate the church
has grown in all it's varied de-
partments and its property and
equipment have been added to
take care of growing needs. In
these years he has taken his part
in community affairs and related
his church to the various programs
for progress of community life. He
has been honored by the fraternity
to which he belongs and by his de-
nomination and is at the present
time a member of the State Board
of Directors.
Rev. Sparkes tells the Herald
that all these years he has had the
united support of his people and
the loyalty of the church officers,
which fact has enabled him to ac-
complish much which otherwise
would never have been accomp-
lished.
In Congregational circles the
Sank Centre church is looked up
on as one of the strong churches
of the denomination and the local
church gives literally each year to
the larger work of the denomina-
ton.
Rev. Sparkes maintains a down
town office over the S. P. Hansen
store. He has just completed the
manuscript of a book which he will
publish in the spring.
At the morning service on Sun
day the pastor will preach on "The
Forward Look, with some refer
ence to his IL years of service.

plays than those they have on
their list. The repertoire includes
Mothers Millions, Strange Bed

"What is Love-"

ROBERT SWIFT POST
PLANS BIG YEAR
Annual Dinner at Commun-
ity Club Last Evening
Attended by 100
CONVENTION in JULY
Cooperation for Civic De-
velopment Pledged by
! Commander Krohm

Robert Swift Post, American
Legion, Sank Centre, have an ac-
tive program in mind for 1928.
At the annual banquet of the
Post at the Community Club
rooms last evening Commander
Herman Krohm gave skeleton
outline of some of the things the
local post hopes to accomplish next
year. The big event will be the
entering of the Sixth District
American Legion convention which
will bring a thousand or twelve
hundred delegates to the city. The
dates have not been definitely set
but if the wishes of the local
post are carried out the conven-
tion will be held the early part of
third.
Mr.. Krohm announced that the
baseball project which the local
post had been considering had been
abandoned for the coming year at
least because it was impossible to
sign the nuecules for a winning
team-that is semi professional
players of merit who were known
to the baseball fans of this section.
The salesman who sold over
SIS 90 worth of tickets in the au-
tomobile campaign last fall were
the special guests of the Legion at
the banquet last evening. This
campaign netted Robert Swift Post
about $1480. The dinner was
served by the Woman's Auxiliary.
Wives of the Service men and
teachers in the Public Schools as
sisted in the serving. The base cf
the dinner was fowl, quite uncom-
mon in this section of the country.
1t was as delicious as it was rare.
One hundred attended the dinner.
Mayor l.. W. Whitson COM
mended the Post on their activities
and the support they were giving
to every Civic development. He
informally discussed plans for
street decorations during the
Yuletide season and asked the
Service men to cooperate with the
City authorities to make the dec
orations unique andin keeping with
the season. ->r-- ... --
Capt. Roy Scott of the National
Guard complimented the Legion
upon their ability as entertainers
and said that every agency at the
disposal of the National Guard will

What one of the Rural Schools

2O?.
While only about three weeks
remains there is ample opportun.

any of the schools.
There is not district entered
which has not many potential vot-

teachers will cooperate with the
children.
The Herald wishes to call atten-
ton again to the fact that the sub
scription price will not be reduced
to $3.50 per year for a short per-
iod as has been the practice for
the past several years.
In the ordinary subscription
campaign large leeway is given in
preference for new subscriptions
This newspaper values the renew
ais of the old subscriber just as
much as new ones. -
Over 80 per Gent of the farm

contending schools are located are
Herald subscribers at present. II
these farmers will pay arrearages
and not more than two years in adj
vance the lowest school in the
standing today will be well out in

The child in the Rural School
should be encouraged to keep up
his interest in his educational adj
vancement. The playground appli-
ances which the Herald will give
away. at the close of the cam
paign will furnish wholesome
healthful amusement at not cent
of expense to the district.
In promoting this subscription
campaign the Herald had in mind
building up the goodwill of the
