YOUTHFUL DAN BOONES

Ed Peterson, Art Peterson and
Norbert Nathe went out hunting
crows and other vermin last Sum-
day in an attempt to help Sank
Centre win the contest which is
being waged between Melrose
and this city. They found an ex-
cellent place in a swamp, near the
Hartung farm north of this city,
and were set to do some mighty
fine shooting. They decided to re-
main until after dark to get few
owls which count considerable more
than crows in the contest. They
were enjoying themselves in great
style and after full days outing
decided to return to their car which
was parked along the road, but to
their dismay found that they were
lost. They fred several shots so
that Walt Jung, who was at the
car could direct them to the car,
but they did not hear the answer
ing signal. After a long time they
found the car and came home
a trifle late for the dates the
boys had made, but nevertheless.

Wool Meeting
in City May 9th
Expert VIII Attend Meeting to Be
Held Under Farm Bureau
Auspices

The season Of the year for the
disposal Of wool will soon be at
hand in Stearns County. Wool is a
commodity that must be marketed
in manner somewhat different
from other farm commodities. Cen
orally speaking It is sold for cash
to produce buyers and other out
side buyers, or it is sold on pool
basis through one of the state or
national wool pools.
The agricultural agent of Stearns
County is calling two meetings to
get some action on the sale of
wool in Stearns County in an or
ganized way. Individual marketing
has cost the producers a loss Of
thousands Of dollars in the last few
years.
Two meetings will be held to
start some activity on this program.

Boy Scout
ActivitiesAre
Keeping Up
Three New Cub Pack Troops
Are in the Making in
Sank Centre
CONTEST CLOSES MAY 6
Troop rs, of This City, Work
ing Hard-Co-operation
Will Bring Success

The past week has shown a. con,
siderable impetus in Boy Scout &C
tivities in the Sank Centre COM
munity. The D. A. r. came to the
front a week ago Wednesday and
sponsored tht first new Troop - a
Cub Pack, which is a junior Scout
organization open to boys 9, 10 and
IL years old. Last Sunday both
the, Congregational and Methodist
churches voted to sponsor troops,
and there is now being organized a
new Troop and a new Cub Pack in
each church. None Of thes organi-
cations are as yet complete, but
judging from the interest shown 1t
is expected that these Troops will
be unable to take care Of all the
boys who wish to join. This recent
added interest in scouting has been
brought about by a betttr knowl-
edge on the part of many Of our
citizens as to just what scouting is
and what it accomplishes. The
March Court Of Honor was a revela-
ton to many.
The spring Roundup contest
closes May 9Th and Troop % is still
in the race for first place but is
laboring under considerable
handicap because Of its size. No
announcement has come from head
quarters as to the standings, end
as far as is known at this time,
Swanville is the closest competitor.
They have a troop of 18 boys, and
If they accumulate 1905 points
they would still be the winner over
Troop Is If the latter accumulated
81 900 points with it's 81 boys. Troop
rs can still accumulate quite a num-
Der OF points. Every parent who
attends the Troop. meeting this or
next Thursday night, counts. Every
individual who goes to the Jambo-
rec at Little Falls Friday afternoon
May 6, counts, and If the Troop can
win the Jamboree contest, which
they intend to do, that will give
them good boost in points and
will also allow them to keep the
Elephant Hide for another year.
There will be a Court Of Honor
at Little Falls, and the Sank Cen
tire boys are going over there TO
get about 80 more Merit Badges,
which alone would bring them 600
additional points.
Volunteers are asked to take the
Troop over to Little Falls on the
9Th. About ten cars are needed,
and 1t would be a great stimulous
to the boys If at least so of our
citizens took the afternoon off and
accompanied the Troop. There will
be Sank Centre Community pic
mic after the afternoon program.
The picnic alone would be quite an
event if we could have 100 there.
Further announcement of the Lit
tie Falls program will appear in
next weeks Herald, but it would
be well to put a red ring around the
date May 9Th on your calendar
right now, so you will remember
you have an important engagement
for that day.

COURT ONLY TO
SIGN RELEASES
Police No Longer to Use
Own Judgment.

Order issued Wednesday by Chief
Mike Morrissey apparently means
that six bailiffs on duty in the turn
keys office of the city prison are to
take up other work.
Morrissey's order, addressed to
"matrons, turkeys and bailiffS," is
as follows:
Effective at once, absolutely no
prisoners are to be released unless
written order, not oral, is given by
one of the judges of courts and A.
These judges are Clifton R.
Cameron, municipal court three
and William H. Sheaffer, municipal
court four.
Commenting on the order, Nor
risSey said Sheaffer explained to
him that it was not 70 be con-
Strued as critical of police, but
added, I'VE are going to run our
courts ourselves"
Heretofore, Morrissey said it has
been the practice to permit police
to release arrested persons on their
own recognizance in cases where
bond would not exceed $500, but the
new order ends this practice.
The chief did not state what dis
position he plans to make of the
six bailiffs.
Cameron prefaced his remarks
regarding the new rule with the
declaration, Everybody has been
sticking their noses into the courts
business" and threatened that any
more releases contrary to the order
will result in contempt cases.

AIRMEN DISAPPEAR
ON MOSCOW HOP
OF WORLD FLIGHT
Fears Felt for Safety of
Americans; May Have
Gone to Siberia.

By United Press
MOSCOW, July flames Mat
tern and Bennett Griffin, speeding
around the world on record
breaking flight, had disappeared to-
day over northern Europe.
No word had been received from
the fiiers since they left Berlin at
9 p. m. Wednesday q p. m. central
standard time) for Moscow, al
though a plane which might have
been theirs was reported over the
Polish-Lithuanian frontier.
They expected to fly from Berlin
to Moscow in eight hours.
They carried 300 gallons of gaso-
line in their plane, Century of
Progress, which Berlin experts fig
ured would keep them in the air
twenty hours.
The twenty hours expired at 6
p. M, Moscow time, today 90 a. M,
central standard time.
The distance from Berlin to Mos
COW is approximately 1000 miles.
Aviation officials here began to
have grave fears for the safety Of
the American fiiers, in view of the
ominous lack of news.
1t was believed they may have
been' forced down in some remote
section, or wandered north of their
course into the Baltic sea.
There was possibility they might
have flown past Moscow toward
the Urals and Siberia.
Mattern and Griffin left Berlin
ten hours and forty-three minutes
ahead of the world flight
mark set by Wiley Post and Har-
old Gatty.
