FINE NEW CREAMERY
is BEING PLANNED
(From Pine County Courier)

Some of our readers may be sur
priced to learn that it is not all i'm
probable that Sandstone will have a
fine new creamery within the next
few months. The question has been
under discussion for the past two
years, but it has been only lately that
any real steps along that line have
been taken. The stockholders held a
meeting last Saturday to discuss the
proposition of having the creamery
handle feed. 1t was finally decided
not to take on this new business until
the question of a new creamery was
disposed of and another meeting for
that purpose has been called for Sat-
urday, June %, at p. m. If they
decide to build, the new structure will
undoubtedly be made large enough to
store the feed there, and a majority
of those present seemed to be in favor
of that move.
The matter of a new site has al
ready practically been decided and it
is an especially good one as it will
be on Main avenue and the rear of
the new building will be on a spur
of the railway track in the local
yards. The new site is on the north
end of the railway park property and
directly across the street from Lar
sons undertaking parlors on Fifth
street. This park property was leased
to the local community club which
has already given the railway COM
pany the right to turn that part of
the park to the creamery company.
This plot is large enough to have the
creamery building over near the
tracks and still have a fine grassy
space in front for a little park of
their own. The present creamery
building is now almost too small for
the amount of cream that is handled
there and larger quarters will be
necessary within a very few years.
The new building would be up-to-date
in every respect and would be fine
new improvement for Sandstone. We
all hope that the present plans will
materialize.

BENEFIT PLAY AT
MARKVILLE, SUCCESS
(From Markville Messenger)


All the good things that can be said
about any home talent play can be
truthfully said about the one given
last Friday night at Chipman's hall
for the benefit of the Markville ball
team. The committee that selected
the play did fine job and deserve a
lot of credit for their work. The play
had a real plot, contained a good
moral and was humorous enough to
give the audience an opportunity for
frequent laughs in spite of some
rather tense and at times sad mo-
mentS.
The play was entitled, "The Path
Across the HILL" and was the story
of a man who had embezzled a large
sum of money from a bank, causing
the ruin and ultimately the death of
the bank president.
To do justice to all who took part
in the play would take a page of this
paper. Mrs. Chapman who took the
part of the heroine Ruth Conrad
and Mr. Ellis, who acted the part of
Samuel Crawford, grandpa" had the
most to learn and certainly did well.
The costumes of Zuzu, the cook,
(Mrs. Hanson) and Mrs. Davis, -(Mrs.
C. r. Bailey brought down the house
whenever they appeared.
The house was filled to the limit
and those who promoted the play were
we'll pleased with the amount taken
in from the sale of tickets at the door.

Vegetarian meals are gaining in
popularity, as evidenced by their ever
increasing appearance on restaurant
and hotel menus. There are many
reasons for vegetarian!sm Some people
refuse TO eat meat because they don't
like the idea Of killing animals Others
feel that physsologically we are con-
gEructed 10 eat fruits and vegetables
rather than meats Some undoubtedly
adopt the habit because they feel that
1t is the thing to do. While another
class realizes the nutritlVe value of In
ciuding large amount Of fruits and
vegetables in the diet, and while these
are not strict yegetarfans, they do be-
lieve In the necessity Of eating at least
one or two vegetarian meals during the
week
Certainly. during the Spring and
Summer and even the early Autumn
months, while vegetables and fruits are
50 abundant and relatively cheap, Vege-
tartan meals may be adopted as a
matter Of economy.
In planning any vegetarian meal Il
must be remembered that even more
care is necessary than In planning meat
meals, Tor al Of the elements needed for
nutrition must be included, II protein
IN The form Of meat is omitted from the
diet there must be something supplied
70 take It's place otherwise we cannot
nope for the right kind OF development
and proper nutrition.
Vegetables may be divided into three
classes. The first includes those which
may be used as substitutes for meat
These are beans, dried peas, lentils and
we might even include nusg. Other
Substitutes for meat that can be used
N tne vegetarian meal are milk. cheese
and egg.

AS half the floors in DR.. Crocker's
