Band Concert Draws
Crowd Of 300 People
Mayor Brand COmmends Band
For Musical Excellence
and Urges Support

An estimated audience of 800 peo-
pie turned out for the last indoor con-
cert of the Scenic City band Friday
evening at the Armory. Proceeds of
the ticket sales were put into the
uniform fund.
About $1OO was cleared. Of this
$57.75 was window sales and results
of solicitation by the band members.
The Lions Club members took five
tickets each, which helped the band
out considerably.
Mayor w. A. Brand urged that the
public support it's municipal band or
ganization, pointing out that it was
one of the community's biggest as
sets. He complimented the band and
its director, S. w. Limburg, upon its
program that night, and its worthy
endeavor.
"In these days of canned music it
is real inspiring to listen to a group
of local musicians play music OF the
quality heard tonight" said Mayor
Brand.
He asked the audience If they ever
paused to reflect that back of every
orchestra or band heard over the
radio, or in sound movies, that there
was the human element, all Of whom
have started in similar way.
To keep a band alive and progress
ing, he said it was necessary to re-
cruit new members. This material
must come from the ranks OF our
boys and girls. he urged them to

MORTON BANK
BANDITS ELUDE
LAW OFFICERS
Searchers Report Finding Part
of $4,000 Haul in Travellers
Checks on Side Road
BELIEVE MEN WE'RE HERE
Blue Essex Sedan Seen Thurs
day Forenoon, Men Tried to
Buy Roofing Nails

No trace has been found OF the two
men who escaped with $4,000 after a
daylight holdup of the Morton Farm
ers and Merchants State Bank last
Thursday noon.
Part of this loot was in travellers
checks, which was found several miles
north of Morton, on a side road,
where the bandits apparently had
turned off the trunk highway to
telude pursuers.
To hinder automobiles from giving
chase, the bandits employed the novel
method of strewing roofing nails
along the highway. Approximately
five pounds of one inch nails were
picked up.
1t is believed that the bank bandits
had been at Redwood Falls during the
forenoon of the same day. A blue
Essex sedan, such as the bandits used,
was seen parked front of the Gazette
office.
Charlebois brothers, who have a
tin shop across the street, informed
Chief of Police Whiting that two men
of similar description as given of the
bandits had tried to buy roofing nails
that forenoon.
w. J. Hager, who has a jewelry
store in the front end, waited on the
customers in the absence of Charlie
bois, and when he showed them
nails, they said that they were not
the right size, and there were not
enough for what they wanted them
for.
A blue Essex sedan parked in the
front of the bank with it's motor run
ming, and man in the drivers seat,
was noticed by Fred Neitzel, who
came in to indorse check while the
holdup was in progress.
He was forced to lie on the floor
along with N. M. Nahum, cashier; E.
H. Daun, assistant, and Glen Jenn-
ings, mail carrier. After Tansacking
the cash drawers the four men were
ordered into the vault.
The men were believed to be about
So and AZ years old. One appeared
to be 100 pounds, and the other $50.
The first described had peaked face
with a prominent nose. The other
had ruddy face.
Insurance covered the loss. 1t was
the first bank raid in Renville county
since the Buffalo Lake bank was rob-
bed year ago.

Another Job Will be Let From
Marshall Ill Miles East

Approximately 55 miles of paving
will be done on T. H. No. Ia in 1881
with additional projects to be let May
10, according to an announcement by
commissioners Babcock.
From Winthrop to 3.5 miles west
of Fairfax, 21.3 miles will be paved.
Contract calls for 249,102 square
yards of concrete and 191, 900 cubic
yards of grading and sub-grade ex-
cavation.
Another stretch will be let from
Marshall to two miles east Of the
Redwood county line. This is a dis
lance of III miles, calling for 1875, 03Q
square yards of concrete.
With contracts previously let from
Redwood Falls to as miles east of
Franklin, and from Gaylord to VIM
throp, when completed it will give
continuous pavement to Gaylord,
where it will connect with pavement
built in previous years through Glen
coe east to the state line.
The May 10 letting will be the
second installment of projects UNDER
taken with the recently authorized
bond issue.
Two other jobs on which bids will
be opened at this date are on T. H.

mer will be let May 10, and bring the
state total for this years program to
402.5 miles.
Very little if any additional paving
will be let after this date. Three or
four paving projects which were on

will be carried over until 1882, since
the lateness Of the season makes it
to advertise for bids, and
to do necessary preliminary work.

Ess and Milk
Important
To Diet
BY DR.. Logan ClendenYng

by Dr. Logan Clenden1nE
Eggs and milk are valuable
ingredients of the normal diet
for the obvious reason that they
are designed by nature to lni-
itiate growth and stimulate vi
tality in young and greedy or
ganiSm. The nutrient content
Of an egg must be such as to
start all life processes of the
cell at the highest rate of speed.
1t is not certainly known
exactly what all these sub.
stances are. They have not
been identified nor isolated
chemically. They may be SINH
lar to or identical with the
vItsmins or they may ba en-.
t1rely different.
A Great Report
Some insight into the exfs.
tence of these substances Is
found in the studies Of Rose
and McCallum. The title OF
their report Is itself signift-
Cant-"The effect of adding al
egg to a diet already adequate"
The diet being received was
then sufficient to supply the
energy and growth and vttami1
and mineral needs of the body
before the egg was added, The
addition of the egg was found
to result in improvement much
the same as the liberal use ct
milk provides.
The adequate diet eaten
before the addition Of the egg
was sufficient to promote growth
in young animals, but ihs egg
was not only more economically
utilized for growth as shown by
gains in weight per thousand
calorles. but also resulted in
greater growth Of the young.
The first experiments done on
this subject we're on animals.
The amount of eggs added to
the experimental animals diet
was the equivalent of about an
egg a day for q child. It Is con-
cluded that eggs and milk are
once more demonstrated to be
important staple foods for the
production of a vigorous race.
Health Is Improved
Observing children, it WIS
found that the addition Of sn
egg a day to a diet already ade-
uuate resulted IN improvement
In the general health and espe-
ctally in the hemoglobin con.
tent of the blood.
Eggs weigh from so to 70
grams on the average. There
are larger eggs than 7O-gram
eggs. but a 70-gram egg is a big
egg, and a 50-gram egg is a lit-
tie egg. A 70-gram egg contains
seven grams of protein and 7
grams of fat, which is ruugh1y,

minerals iron phosphorus. sui
phur and calcium. and vtta minis

quarrel, and it always makes me
feel terribly. 1 know he still
cares for me because he almost
actually told me so, and I love
him. Could you please suggest
some way that will bring us TO-
gether again? SORRY.
