GOLD STAR MOTHERS

This month the first contingent of Gold
Star Mothers will visit the graves of their
sons in France at the expense of the United
States government. Wives of American SOL
diers who are buried in France are also eligi-
BILE for these trips, provided they have not
REMARKED.
According to the law under which these
pilgrimages were authorized, there will be
opportunities for trips also in 1881 and 1882,
so that those concerned may choose the year
most convenient for them.
Arrangements for the transportation
and comfort of the mothers and widows are
made by the War Department, and number
of Army officers left for France last month
in order to see that suitable accommodations
are provided.
By making provision for these pilgrim
ages Congress did most worthy and patri
otto act. It is hoped that every American
woman who has loved one buried "over
there" may be able to take advantage of the
governments generosity in arranging these
pilgrimages.

"slow" signs, set on the highway,

bulletin states. They are effective
only if removed promptly after the
children have crossed the road
morning and evening. Even if this
is done in one community, it is neg
lected in others, and this leads
drivers to disregard the signs and
they soon become meaningless. 9th
er special types of signs have prov
en- ineffective.
The department believes that
school signs should be uniform, and
should be confined to two types.
One is the standard school caution
sign, permanently placed on the
right hand of the road approaching
the school. This sign calls atten-
ton to the hazard, but does not
compel drivers to stop or slow
down except when children are
crossing. The other is the sign
held in the hand when children are
crossing.

GLENWOOD HERALD HAS NEW
PUBLISHER

p. Dodson, formerly in the newspaper
business at Moorehead is the new owner of
the Glenwood Herald. His first issue last
week indicates that he is competent news
paper man. In his salutatory the new editor
announces that politically the Herald will be
Independent Republican.
The newspaper situation in Glenwood
has not been satisfactory for years. In these
days of high cost of newspaper making no
city of Glenwood's size will properly support
two papers. Both the Herald and Tribune
are excellent papers, but it's doubtful if either
are making any money.
The business men would be better served
and a lower cost if there was one paper. Per-
haps the change may mean that consolida-
ton is in the offering as Mr.. Dodson's politi.
cal stand is quite in keeping with that of the
Tribune.
In the twelve years in which Mr. Savre
was the publisher of the Glenwood Herald
he served his city and county we'll. The
publichers of this paper hope his lot in the flu
ture may be cast in congenial environment.

DR.. George e. Vincent Heads
IZaak Walton League

One of the greatest honors ever
bestowed upon the Izaak Walton
League of America, and the cause
of conservation in general, was the
immediate and unqualified accept
ance of the presidency of the
League by Doctor George Edgar
Vincent, Greenwich, Connecticut,
retired president of the Rockefeller
Foundation and formerly head of
the University of Minnesota, follow
ing his unanimous selection by the
recent National Convention Of the
League in Chicago, reads an edi-
torial in the current issue of Out
door America.
Doctor Vincent has devoted his
good. He is man of pronounced
individuality and of defined op;n-
ion, and brings to the adnlinistra-
ton of the Izaak Walton League
of America the highest type of lead
ership. He is internationally known
and respected as an educator and
as a man who has been keenly in
terested in sociological and biolog-
ical researches. Doctor Vincent's
services have been in constant de-
mand for the highest positions Of
educational and humanitarian re-
sponsibility.
Doctor Vincent's valuable time,
broad experience and unlimited en-
ergy will be exerted, as volunteer,
in behalf of the League and it's
extensive program of conservation.
A few years past sixty, DR.. Vim
cent has arrived at the place where
he desires to perform a browning
mission of distinguished career.
It is his will to dedicate his THE
and energies to the work of aiding
in the protection and preservation
of Americas natural resources.

woodland trails, the picturesque
mountains and the murmum of the
brook. He has travelled thousands
of miles in various sections Of The
universe in quest of outdoor rccra-
alton. His favorite saddle horse is
a constant companion on many Of
his trips, and long journeys into
the deep wilderness for intimate
contact with nature are frequently
taken. It is not difficult to visual
ize the value and prestige which
DR.. Vincent brings to the Izaak

America. His broad knowledge of
national and international affairs is
unquestioned, and his ardent out
door enthusiasm stamps him as a
mans man, who stands squarely
and honestly before the world as
one of the great leaders of public
thought.
Doctor Vincent's life history
teens with interesting facts and
accomplishments. Who's who in
America devotes a prominent space
to his distinguished career.
It is unnecessary to comment
further on the ability and accom-
plishments of DR.. Vincent, except
to remind our public that under
his leadership perhaps the greatest
effort for the education of the plain
people had it's fowering-we refer
to the Chautauqua movement. The
Izaak Walton League of America
will benefit in proportion as it re-
spends to it's opportunity in his
council and guidance. The future
of the League has been given a
powerful impetus by his election as
President, and that he will be
earnestly supported is very evident
by his unanimous choice as the
Leagues titular head.
Every member of the League is
proud to acclaim DR.. Vincent as it's
new president. Conservation Or

joice in his active entrance into a
