HINCKLEY MAN
TO HELP BOOST
II. Nj. Dempsey is Chosen to Represent
Pine County on Minnesota
Booster Body.

With the appointment of H. NJ.
Dempsey Of Hinckley, Pine county as
well as every other county in Mime
sofa is now represented on the new
advisory committee of the Ten Thou
sand Lakes-Greater Minnesota asso-
citation. The committee is composed
of 100 business and professional men
from all parts of the state.
With the merger of the Ten Thou
sand Lakes association and the Great
er Minnesota association last fall and
the subsequent program in Which agri-
cultural and recreational interests
were to be fully and equally repre-
sented, it was found advisable to en-
large the advisory committee from so
to 100 members. This means that
every county will have representation.
Speaking of the 1929 program, Pres
ident Roy E. Dunn said, "Since the
association is embarking this year on
the most important of it's history, it
needs more than ever, the advice of
representative citizens throughout the
state. This year we will advertise
the agricultural resources of Mime
sofa just as vigorously and extensive
ly as we have been advertising our
recreational attractions"
With Mr.. Dempsey serving in an
advisory capacity on this body, Pine
county agricultural interests as we'll
as its resorts will be adequately taken
care of in a satisfactory manner

To be Held at TOaUp Hall, AsEOV,
Wednesday, March 2O.-Plan
to Organize Club.

The spread and development of
Garden clubs in the United States
within the past few years has been so
rapid that they have grown to be one
of the most important features in all
community activities in home devel-
opment, in civic betterment and COM
munity identifying projects. No mat
ter what size or kind these Garden
clubs may be, they are one of the
finest and most satisfactory phases
of modern national life. They are all
good, all working to the same end-to
make our home surroundings and COM
munities more beautiful.
There seems to be considerable in
terest in the ASkov community for
forming a Garden club and it has
therefore been decided by some of the
enthusiasts to call a meeting to dis
cuss the matter of organizing and
making plans for the summer. The
meeting will be held at the town hall
on Wednesday afternoon, March Goth,
at 2 O'Clock. 1t is open to everybody
men, women, and young folks, who
are interested in gardens and beauti-
flying the community.
Garden club members in other COM
munities where they have had the
experience, say that there is no COM
munity so attractive but that it can
be improved. There is none too small
to have a garden club, nor is there
one that would not be the better in
every way for having such an organi-
cation. The very fact of the forma-
tion of a garden club presupposes a
desire for friendly intercourse among
members which brings spirit of
community interest of far reaching
value. Garden clubs teach with
greater force each year the truth that
communities must as a whole realize
their responsibility to their home
makers and they also point clearly to
each individual this fact-that he is
an important part of his community
and must assume his share of respOn-
sibility for the well-being of that COM
munity.

The OptimiSt.

That simmered in the sun,

And just a spice of fun;

They stirred it all together

FULL HOUSE GREETS
GIRLS FINE PROGRAM

The girls of the Young Peoples So
ciety gave a delightful entertainment
at the d. B. S. hall Sunday evening
before a packed house. The girls were
well received and liberal applause
greeted their efforts.
A little playlet, entitled Neigh
bors," was first presented under the
direction of Miss Dagny Ostergaard.
The play deals with everyday home
life and the life of the community
being wholesome, and was appreci-
ated by the audience. Those taking
part were Esther Henriksen, Herds
johnson, Krista Thomson, Valborg
Miller, Esther Krogh, Florence Kel-
Ter. Eva Feldtmose, and Frieda Han
sen. The only thing that marred the
play was the shaking and stirring in
the furnace by the janitor five min
utes after the entertainment had been
started during which time not word
could be heard by the audience. This
certainly should have been done be-
fore the program was commenced.
Following the play, Mrs. V. S. Peter
sen and Miss Margaret Schroeder
sang two pretty Kentucky mountain
songs, to which Miss Schroeder played
the accompaniment on the guitar.
This was followed by a Chinese scene,
in which the Misses Ellen and Alva
SOrensen sang, being accompanied on
the piano by Miss Astrid Gravesen.
The Sorensen girls were dressed as
Chinese and certainly looked the part.
Sixteen girls then sang two songs.
A southern colonial scene was next
presented. The ladies were apprOpri-
ately gowned, some of them represent
ing men and carrid an air of aristoc-
racy as becoming to the old colonial
days. Those on the stage were
Mrs. o. H. Dyreborg, and the Misses
Sigrid Jensen, Anna Laursen, Dagmar
Gravesen, Anna Thomson, and Elsie
KilstOfte. Little Mavis Conway sang
two songs as did also Mrs. Svend
Then came little tot all colored up,
and dressed as pickaninny, none
other than Mavis again. She danced
the Charleston and this brought forth
thunderous applause. She was
quick and snappy and willingly danced
again, much to the delight of the au-
dience.
A piano duet was then enjoyed, it
being rendered by Esther Lindegaard
and Verla Hansen. The program end
ed with the singing Of song by the
entire cast.
The girls are real efficient when it
comes to presenting a program. They
spent much time and effort in MAX
ing it appear good and they know how
to decorate and dress up for the vari-
Gus character parts. 1t will now be
up to the boys to go them one better
when they present their program.
Lunch was enjoyed after the enter
tainment and some ring games were
played.

Garden Identification
Meeting To Be Held
CENTURIA MAY HAVE
LOCAL NEWSPAPER

The business men of Centuria, Wis,
have for some time been discussing
the probability of having a newspaper
established in their village. At pres
ent they are being served by a news
paper in another village with a page
or two in it. Upon invitation the
editor of the American made trip to
Centuria Thursday and Friday of last
week to look over the proposition.
Centuria is village of approximately
400, rather too small to have a news
paper plant of it's own, so they are
investigating the feasibility of having
local editor established there and
having the printing done elsewhere
Other newspapers are also looking up
the proposition and submitting their
proposals. While in Centuria, a pleas
ant visit was had with the F. Clarey
Nielsen family. Mr.. Nielsen who was
formerly superintendent of the Askov
high school, is engaged in the imple-
ment and feed business there, and is
enjoying good patronage. They are
happy and cOntented as are also the
James Frokjers who have lived near
Centuria on a farm for several years.
Centuria is thriving little village
on the 500 railroad and on highway
No. 35, about eight miles from St.
CrOix Falls. 1t has a large pea can
ming factory, a cooperative creamery
and the general run of business estab-
lishments. The farming community
is well developed and the whole ap-
pearance is that of stability.

NEW YORK, Oct. I9.-Addison
Warren, a former North Carolina
university football star, and George
Hoffman, who resigned his title as
American amateur heavyweight box
ing champion to try his luck at the
pro game, today were listed among
the many young heavyweights who
have eliminated themselves from
serious consideration as contenders
for the throne vacated by Gene
Tunney.
Hoffman was entitled to slightly
better ranking than the Carolinian,
having scored a tenth-round knock
out over Warren in their bout at
Madison Square Garden Friday
night. However, neither man showed
anything which would entitle him
to a rating as a first-class fighter.
A wicked right to the jaw in the
tenth sent Warren Topping, face
first. on the canvas. He managed
to stagger to his feet at the nine
CONT, but was unable to stand and
Tell over and partly outside the
ropes. Referee Crowley waved Hoff-
man to the corner and awarded him
the bout on a technical knockout.
Tony Canzoneri, former feather
weight champion, scored a clean-cut
victory over Johnny FAIR, Cleveland
veteran, in the second ten-round
feature. Canzoneri took nine rounds
and Farr one. Tony was unimpress-
i've, despite his victory.
