Committee = Sentiment
Favors Early Fair

The annual meeting of tine Agri-
cultural Society of Stearns County
held at the Community Club rooms.
in this city, Thursday evening of
last week while attended by a fair
ly sized representation of the stock
holders and citizens of Sank Cen
tire, YVES a disappointment to the
officers.
President J. B. Schoenhoff called
the meeting to order promptly at
500 o'clock. The only persons at.
tending the meeting from outside
the city were County Superintend-
erttW A. Boerger, of st. Cloud, al
ways faithful friend of the fair, and
Carl Hennemann, secretary Of the
Stearns County Council Of i-H
Clubs, and able representative or
the st. Cloud Times-Journsl. -
The question of future fairs was
a problem. It was generally admit
ted by those present at the meeting
that stearns County must continue
to carry on" the county fair. It
was cited that the County Fair had
sponsored and stood back of the
Boys and Girls All Club move
ment in the county. The success
achieved, while it had cost the Fair
Association much more each year
than the sum appropriated by the
county, was considered a mighty
fine investment in view of the fact
that the citizens of tomorrow were
being developed along right think
ing and self-reliant lines.
Secretary Hillerud's report show

fair cost $1,100. Tint total gate
receipts were $500. The Fair As

Easy Money Is
Found in Cities
Farm Bureau Finally Gets Answer
to Long-standing Query
Says j. s. Jones

The Minnesota Farm Bureau has
finally discovered tbs source OF
funds with which the Minnesota
Taxpayers League is carrying on
it's anti-income tax fight, accord
ing to J. s. Jones, secretary-trea-
surer Of the, farm federation. Sew
eral months ago Mr.. Jones asked
J. F. Feed, president Of the Tax
payers League where his organi-
cation got the funds with which it
is making it's statewide campaign
against real tax reform. Reed re-
fused to answer, and condemned
Mr.. Jones for asking the question,
Farm Bureau officials assert.
The query has just been answer
ed, however, by recent meeting
in Winona county, Mr.. Tarse made
the statement that:
The Taxpayers association
had been formed with the use
Of funds which had been gath
cred in the Twin Cities, Duluth
and more lately in st. Cloud
oiko vVuAOudy IlidI uOhc VI tAAC
funds had come from farmers,
that it wasn't costing the
farmers anything to organize
these associations, but that the
money had come from where 1t
was relatively easy to get.
The statement by Mr.. Tearse
supports entirely the contention Of
the Farm Bureau, that the league
Is the mouthpiece of special inter-
ests OF the states largest cities,
which shate and fear the income
tax and are ready to spend a lot Of
money to prevent its adoption in
Minnesota, Mr.. Jones asserts.
The Minnesota Taxpayers as
sociation is not sincere in its so
called tax reform work, Mr.. Jones
declared. Real estate and personal
property Is now paying % per cent
of the taxes In Minnesota, and 1t
will continue to do SO, even though
there were 100 per cent efficiency
in the spending Of tax funds, unless
the tax base is broadened to in
clude the large class of high-salar-
led and professional people. who
now pay no state taxes, the farm
leader asserts.

High School CUNTS Play
Rings Around Osakis
Teams Friday
GLENWOOD HERE FRI.
Locals Will Fight to ,!Avenge
An Earlier in the Sea-
son Defeat

The Sank Centre High School
basketball quint spurred on by
fine crowd of rooters, the Boys
band and some lusty roofing hand
lily took the first and second Osakis
teams into camp Friday evening on
the Junior High Auditorium floor.
AS preliminary to the big games
the Seventh and Eighth graders,
the former coached by Ralph Ko-
waikiki and the latter by Ben Tones,
put up snappy, scrappy exhibition.
Some of the players were very small
of stature but they had speed to
burn. The Eighth graders had a
slight advantage in weight and
reach and won the game by 81
score.
The game between the first teams
was called promptly at 500 o'clock
by Referee M. ]. Blaha. This gen.
tleman has refereed several foot
ball and basketball contests in this
city and has always given universal
satisfaction.
Coach Viker, of Osakis, brought
down q well coached team. They
gave their best but it was not
good enough, Sank Centre leading
all the way.
The locals badly outplayed the
visitors In the first half. Osakis
came back with a rush in the third
quarter and gave the local fans
and Coach Stub Olson several
anxious moments. The tide was
stemmed near the close of the
quarter. The third, however, was
Osakis' by a wide margin.
The teams lined up for the open
ing play as follows:
Sank Centre l. Osakis
Hamilton, RI Johnson, LF
Iwinski, LF Peterson, LIZ
Dubois, &C Black, c
Kinsella, RG Quinn, LG
c. Domke LG Dickson, RIG
The game started with a rush
with the first tip off from center.
On the third play Kinsella sank a
beauty for the locals from the side
lines. The score was evened q
moment later when johnson scored
field goal for Osakis. Harry Ham,
ilton followed with one and Twins
XII with another, making the score
Sank Centre 8, Osakis, 2. DUBOIS
scored another for Sank Centre.
Ham" fouled Black but he failed
to connect. Peterson made a mar
velous basket from a difficult angle.
Hamilton and Dubois scored on
free throws and Black negotiated a
field goal just before the quarter
ended leaving the score, Sank Cen
ire 10, Osakis 6.
At the opening of the second
quarter Hoosline replaced Peterson
at forward for Osakis. Black foul
ed Dubois and Pat sank two. Dom
Ike caught the jump ball and made a
beautiful pass to Iwinski for field
goal. Althoughs heavily guarded
Hoosline scored a difficult field goal.
Ham" sank another; johnson
made a difficult shot for a field
goal and Ham" scored another
beauty.

BANQUET JANUARY y
Heads of the City's Civic Or.
CARNATIONS Make the
Award

Every year the United States
Junior Chamber Of Commerce pre-
sents a distinguished service medal
to the citizen Of every community.
regardless Of whether he is a MEM
Der of their organization or not,
for the accomplishment which has
been of the greatest benefit to that
particular community in any given
year.
Some time ago DR.. w. Johnson,
president of the Sank Centre Jun
ior Chamber of Commerce, named a
committee to select the citizen of
Sank Centre who had brought the
greatest fame to the city during
1881.
This committee consisted OF Sig.
urd Holme, mayor; w. M. Parker.
president of the Community Club;
George Berggreen, president Of The
Rotary Club, j. H. Hanson, COM
mander Of Robert Swift Post.
American Legion, and H. s. Halver-
son. They canvassed the situation.
After going over the city from
every angle the committee decided
that Walter Schriver, buttermaker
for the Sank Lake Cooperative
Creamery Association, was entitled
to the honor. This decision was bas-
ed on the fact that Mr.. Schriver
had been awarded, in a contest ex-
tending over several months, the
medal for being the champion but
termaker Of this state. When one
considers Minnesota makes more
better butter than any state in the
union it is quite right to assume
that Mr.. Schriver is the champion
buttermaker of the United States.
This medal will be presented at a
banquet held by the Sank Centre
Junior Chamber of Commerce at
the Palmer House Wednesday eve
ming, Jan. 20, at 700 o'clock.
The honor is worthily bestowed

This is the first chilly indication
Of the trend of demand in eastern

tracts. Stearns, Benton, Morrison

are trying to put over the test, but
have failed so far.

Cleveland is the first eastern city
to absolutely ban butter not from
T. B. tested cows by city ordi-
nance. In other eastern cities the
demand for the butter comes from
patrons Of grocery firms, and their
desires are expected to be manifest
ed by ordinances in the large indus

forum Thursday Evening,

Thursday evening, Jan. q, at the
Junior High School Auditorium the
Girls Glee Club of the Sank Cen
tire High School will present THE
Rivals, a comic operetta with
music by w. Rhys-Herbert, and
librettic by F. Edmonds.
The story centers about the phil
anthropic efforts of a girls club,
whose chief motive is ito govern
and reform the neighborhood." The
exclusion of a social climber and
her satellites, and their efforts to
enter the initiation ceremonies in
disguise cause many difficulties for
the club members. A midnight
scramble to escape the ghosts in
the stalactite-filled Pine Woods
Caves, the initiation ceremony in
the club room, and the singing and
dancing of the little ragamuffins,
whom the club members have brib-
ed with pennies are scenes depict
ing interesting situations.

BY Emil Lengyel

Nor would it be possible for President
Won Hindenburg, when crossing Polish
territory, to utilize the trains stop at
Posen station to leave his car and pay
a hurried visit to the house in which
he was born IS years ago today. Posen,
a German city until the end of the war,
has assumed the new name of Poznan
and today is one of the principal cities
Of Poland.
On the day when Germany celebrates
the birthday of her President, Posen
remains Indifferent. No flag flies from
the house of Bergstrasse Z, where on
October 2, 1847, the eldest son of Lieut..
and Adjt Robert Won Beneckendorff und
Won Hindenburg was born. As matter
of fact, no flag announced this event IS
years ago. It would have passed un-
noticed except by the members of the
family if the father had not announced
it in the Posener Zeitung with the
old-fashioned formality of those days:
"I wish respectfully to announce the
Evening star., 1932-10-02

successful confinement of my beloved
wife, nee Schwickart, this afternoon at
3 o'clock of lively and healthy little
son."
The road from Posen to the presiden-
tial palace led through a countryside
packed with history. His eighty-fifth
birthday sees President Hindenburg
facing the greatest battle of his
life. Will it bring him the glory Of Tan
nenberg or the tragedy Of the Marine?
This time the enemy is invisible and
treacherous, it is everywhere and 1t is
nowhere. It is lurking in the economic
crisis which makes mankind fear the
worst. It is hiding in the parliamentary
crisis which has set parliamentarism
against autocracy in a struggle for life
and death. It is concealed behind the
social crisis which may result in up
heavals that a few years ago would
have seemed phantasmagorias to the
most uncritical believer Of the new
day. .k.ssx
Evening star., 1932-10-02

THE train reaches the Vistula and
for a few minutes speeds through
the sovereign territory of the Free
City of Danzig. Then the passenger
catches a glimpse of the monumental
Madonna on the towering walls OF
Marienburg, once the stronghold OF
the Teutonic Knights and now a
memento of glories departed. Several
gentlemen in solemn cutaways greet
the President of the Reich. Once more
he is on German soil.
If the President took 1t into his head
to make the trip across the Corridor in
an automobile he would find the regu-
lations even more stringent. The Polish
frontier authorities would attach to the
rear of his car large sign with the
letter 'T," meaning that it is a non
stop Corridor transit car which must
not use any highway except those
marked with ct" for transit. The exact
hour of his entry would be marked and
his car would have to make the trip as
fast as it could, and sometimes even
faster, unless some special privilege
were granted to the head Of the German
Reich. If tire were punctured on the
way through the Corridor, he would have
to make report to the nearest police
authority, which would certify the length
of the unavoidable delay-otherwise he
would face difficulties on the other side
Of the Corridor.
Evening star., 1932-10-02

Germany sees only one man who
can prevent the worst happening in
the coming Winter: President Won
Hindenburg. His life and health
should be insured not for millions or
billions Of marks, but for all the ma
tional wealth Of the Reich, the main
tenance of which Is dependent upon
comparative tranquility and the hope
of better times.
# despair has not forced Germany to
commit an act of madness it is because
she sees this superb old man, veritable
Methuselah, keeping steadily at work. He
is a man from another planet, from a
world in which personal ambition is nom
existent and the idea of service rules
supreme. In this man there is no lust
for power nor for fame. He can look at
this globe with the detachment of man
who has become immortal in his life. He
is not surprised at anything, not even
the ingenuity with which man places
obstacles in his own way.
In search of Hindenburgiana last Sum-
mer, I visited the house in which Hinden-
burg was born. It is low and narrow
structure, as unimpressive as its neigh
bors, in street which derived its Ger
man name, Gergstrasse, from the eleva-
tion nearby, on which Posen's old market
place was built. The visitors attention
is attracted by memorial slab under
