Business Men Do
Fine Xmas Biz
Postal Receipts for December Ex-
coed that of 1931-Increased
Rate Saves Situation

In spite of illness in most of the
Sank Centre homes the Christmas
programs prepared by the Sunday
schools and churches Of the COM
munity were carried out successful
ly Christmas Eve, Christmas night
and Monday evening, Dec. 20. The
churches were filled to overlooking
in every instance.
Inquiry among the business men
discloses that they had surpris-
ingly good Holiday trade. There was
a larger volume business than a
year ago. The merchandise sold at
a lower price but the cash tills
showed practically the same
amount of coin of the realm as in
1881.
The business at the postoffice was
causing Postmaster Parker con-
siderable worry as it appeared that
the cash receipts might fall be-
low 1881 when the total for the
year barely saved the postmaster
from a salary reduction of 500 per
year. It is understood that the last
two days of Christmas business
were sufficient to bring the years
totals up to the amount necessary
to save the situation.
There were not as many pieces of
mail sent through the cancelling
machine as a year ago, and there
was a falling off in the number and
size of the parcels post packages.
The increased f1rst-class postage
rate from two to three cents.
brought the totals to the level re-
quired.

Publishers announcement

In these days of economic distress all business in
situations confronted with serious problems.
With the first issue of the Herald in March, 1880,
the size of the paper enlarged to eight columns per
page. To meet this enlarged situation modern
press and second typesettng machine installed
at heavy expenditure.
The publishers felt that Sank Centre entitled
to good newspaper representation any city of
like size in the state.
The Herald has reached the ideal of editorial
and typographical excellence for which the publishers
are forever striving
However, as the other community newspapers COM
ing to the editorial desk carefully checked from
week to week, the Herald publishers felt that this
newspaper abreast of the better community
papers of the state.
Undoubtedly if conditions had returned to normal
the enlarged size of the Herald would have been justified
The enlarged Herald has never been paying pro-
p"'
The question of solving unsatisfactory condition
has caused the publishers much consideration.
We did not care to disrupt our force of faithful
employees, most of whom have served long per-
iod of years.
After looking at the dilemma from every angle it has
been decided reduce size the Herald 20 per cent
In other words beginning with the issue of the first week
in January the Herald will be reduced to columns
per page, with slightly shorter columns.
This changes does not mean the local features of
the Herald will be curtaed in the slightest. Some of
the features which have been used weekly at consid
cradle expense will be eliminated.
Local display advertising rates will be reduced 16
cent The discounts paid of space at the end
of the year, depending upon the number of inches used
will be eliminated.
The present system of subscription payments, a
trade for dollar for every years subscription
paid will be continued indefinitely.
Not only will the advertising rates be reduced but
there will be reduction in the price of job work where
conditions permit.
The Herald publishers haven't lost faith in Sank
Centre and when conditions warrant the larger sized
Herald will be resumed The column size is the
popular of many of the better community weeklies
of the state.
The Herald publishers inclined to be optimists.
However, with Scent pork, 35cent wheat 20cent but
teat and eight cent oats they quite convinced that
it will take than the simple turning of the wrist
to bring back immediate prosperity.
They have faith that this country will eventually
snap out Of it's distressed condition Just how this mir
acle will be performed when it will gradually start
decided upturn-well, we are not prophets

Ltchfield Men Were on Fishing
Trip Monday-Bodies Not
Found Tuesday

Litchfield Dec. 27.-Clarence E.
Young and Albert Wischman Of
this place were drowned Monday
afternoon in Lake Washington
when the car in which they were
riding went thru the ice. The trag-
edy occurred off Cedar Point at
the same place that several TRACE
dies have taken place, the most re-
cent one prior to Mondays, being

failed to return home Monday eve
ming an investigation was made

Supreme Court Grants
Trial for H. H. Flowers
Says the Conviction of Former
State Officer Was CLEARING
Absurdity" .--.

H. H. Flowers, former secretary
of the state rural credit board, who
was recently convicted of a bank
law violation while president of the
First State bank of Cleveland, was
granted a new trial by the Minne-
sofa Supreme court in a decision
handed down late last week. Ac-
cording to press dispatches. Flow
ers virtually is cleared of the
charge in the language of the
courts ruling, as the court says the
attempt to convince the banker in
the case in question is '.glaring
absurdity."
The law limits the liability any
officer or director of a bank may
assume to 10 per cent of paid in
capital and surplus. Flowers guar
anteed payments on a contract for
deed of $4,000 on farm, the liza
bility assumed being in excess Of
the legal limit. The action was
taken, the court explained, because
bank examiners had ordered GER
tain doubtful papers disposed Of,
so the contract, with Flowers
guarantee, was substituted with
approval of the banks directors.
Flowers act the Supreme Court
said, was only to meet the demand
of the banking examiner, land so
far as the evidence goes, he suffer-
ed detriment not only to the ex-
tent of surrendering all rights as
creditor and vendor under the con-
tract, but also by guaranteeing it."
IF the statute is to be con-
strued," the high court held, mot
only to prohibit that sort of trans
action but also to penalize 1t, the
legislature has subjected bankers
to the brand of punishment Of
crime for morally commendable
acts" The purpose Of the act was
to protect bank assets, the court
said.
The decision, written by Justice
Royal A. Stone, overturned a con-
viction in LeSueur county District
Court.

them were brothers.
In the rear car were Peter, Joe.

j. D. Smith, of Seattle, Wash,
Has Remarkable Memory
of Men and Women

The Herald is indebted to J. D.
Smith, an early day resident IF
Sank Centre for a very interesting
article dealing with pioneer activi-
ties and individuals and commun-
ity WAY Back Yonder," almost
with the beginning of the commun-
ity itself.
. The incidents described are writ
ten from the gentleman's memory.
The Herald editor has interviewed
a number of the old time citizens.
Many of the incidents mentioned
by Mr.. Smith have slipped from
their memory, but upon a careful
review they admit the gentleman
has depicted a very accurate pic
ture of Sank Centre at it's very
beginning.
Mr.. Smith included with his let
ter a clipping from the Sank Cen
tire Herald of probably the mid
summer of about 1892, giving ex-
cerpts of happenings in the COM
munity rs and 80 years previous.
This clipping follows the letter.
Both follow herewith:
