enth Annual Picnic of the Lake Re
gion Templar Association to be held

families to these outings which are
becoming more enjoyable each year.
Those attending the outing are
expected to bring their own picnic
baskets. The Templar Association
will supply the coffee, cream and
ice cream.
Committees from Pilgrim Com
mandery and Star in the West

Convention Approves Plan For
Building Retirement
Fund

Minneapolis, June 8. Definite
steps to provide assured and ade-
quate pensions for retired minis
ters Of the Norwegian Lutheran
Church of America and their wild
ows and orphans were taken Tues
day by the church organization as
the chief order of business at its
convention in Minneapolis.
The plan, as approved by the del
egates, provides for equal pay
ments to pension funds by minis
ters and their congregations, al
though different divisions of the
contributions may be made under
mutual agreements between the
two. Heretofore, the congrega-
tions Of Norwegian Lutheran
churches have paid So into their
pension funds against each $3.50
contributed by the pastors.
The delegates voted to leave the
decision as to when the new pen
sion plan shall be put into effect
to the board Of trustees and the
church council, the executive and
advisory bodies of the Norwegian
Lutheran organization.
The matter of financing the
church's requirements for pension
payments this year and in 1888
and 1884 was referred to a joint
commission of members of the A.
nance and pension committees and
board Of pensions. The board OF
trustees was authorized to borrow
UP to $4,000 to guarantee pay

Poison Bran for
Hoppers is Ready
Demonstration On George Schur-
mann Farm Southwest of City
Friday Morning, June 10

With the number of Matched
grasshoppers increasing daily in
some of the infested townships it
concerns every farmer, landowner
as we'll as tenant, in these bad
townships to keep a diligent watch
in pastures and fence rows for new
outbreaks that may take place. The
townships of Sauk Centre, Melrose,
Wildwood, Krain, st. Joseph, St.
Wendell and Brockway at present
are the only townships where large
numbers are Matching. Some eight
or nine other townships have local
spots that are heavily covered but
these areas are small.
At the present time small sup
ply of poisoned bran has been plac-
ed in the county by the State en-
tomologist to take care of any early
invasions. Some badly infected
pasture spots will be covered from
this supply on Thursday and Fri
day, June 8 and 10. Generally
speaking most Of the infested areas
are not far enough along yet with
Matching to warrant the spreading
of poison. On Thursday afternoon,
June piece of pastureland near
the Jos. Peuringer farm in st. Jo-
seph township will be covered. On
the following morning a similar
piece of land southeast Of Sauk
Centre on the Geo. Schurman farm
will be poisoned.
Farmers and crew leaders in
each township should keep their
township chairman informed as to
the areas where new outbreaks take
place. The chairman can then ar
range things to have a supply Of
poison to take care of the first out
break.
The county now has four tons OF
poison available at st. Cloud. The
county agricultural agent already
has made a request for more.
When the bulk Of the poison supply
is shipped 1t vii be shipped to and
stored at various towns along the
Great Northern.

that the church's campaign for
money for it's general budget
among Norwegian Lutherans shall
include an apeal for contributions
to the pension fund also.
Continuing their effort to effect

ported by the church, the dele
gates Tuesday considered plan to
merge the Lake Park children's
home, Just east of Crookston, and
the Wild Rice children's home at

Wild Rice home was burned last
March but the new program pro-
vides for construction of a new
structure adequate to house the
consolidated children's home,
which would be located at Twin
Valley.
The matter was not decided by

institutions are located.
