Should Put Lights
On All Vehicles
Patrol Is Warning Farmers and
Others for Their Own Safety
to Obey Law

A growing number of horse-drawn
vehicles on the highways, causing
a marked increase in night acct
dents is reported by State High
way patrol. The patrol is warning
Minnesota farmers and others for
their own safety to obey the state
law requiring lights or reflectors on
such vehicles at night. Five acct
dents involving horse-drawn We
hicles have been reported recently
and several others have been mar
rowly averted, according to records
Of the patrol. Only slight expense
is involved in complying with the
law, because farm lanterns or mex
pensive reflectors can be used.
Minnesota highway laws require
that:
Every horse-drawn vehicle using
the public highways shall, between
the period from a half hour after
sunset to a, half hour before sun
rise. carry, on the rear thereof, q
reflex mirror or lighted lamp ex-
hibiting a yellow or red light visi-
BILE under normal atmosphere con-
ditions from a distance of 200 feet
to the rear Of such vehicle" Viola
ton is a misdemeanor.
1.-THE co-opertion of the public in
the obeyance of this safety act is
earnestly requested" says report
by the patrol. Persons who drive
horse-drawn vehicles at night owe
1t to themselves and their families
as well as others, to adopt this SIM
pie precaution."

REGULARS Lose to
Glenwood Quint
Second Team Wins IL to 6. While
Older Lads Drop Game by
Score Of 81 to 10

Thursday night both the first and
second teams from Main Street
made the trip to Glenwood.
The seconds displayed a smooth
brand of ball, taking a two point
lead early in the first quarter and
keeping the situation very wei
under control.
The younger fellows deserve
much credit in spite of the fact it
was only curtain raiser; they
were under just as much pressure
considering their age and exper-
fence; the score ended IL to 6 in
favor Of the young Main Streeters.
There was little time wasted in
getting the regular game under way
and finding Johnny Dubois making
a pretty shot, driving in from the
side. But Glenwood being a norm
al Glenwood team soon proved too
much for the high strung, wrought
up, excited boys from Main Street.
At the half the boys found them
selves in the locker room, very
much disappointed as to the out
come Of that disastrous game.
The second half was much diff
ferent tune. they had better con-
troll of. themselves and played a
better brand Of ball; in fact they
were outplaying and outscoring
their rivals by count of Is to 8.
Nevertheless, that first half was too
much to overcome, and so they
wound up taking it 81 to 10.

Fire Ruined
Deluxe Bake
Shop Sund'y
Department Had Hard Work
Fighting Flames-Floor
Dropped From Center
IN BASEMENT
Mrs. Elizabeth Nathe, Owner
of Building, Will Rebuild
AS Soon AS Possible

Sunday morning, December oath,
at about four o'clock, the fire de-
partment was called to the De-
luxe Bakery, located in the Nathe
building on Main Street, where a
fre ragged in the basement. The
entire interior of the building was
ruined, and the contents, such as
fixtures, machinery and stock are
a total loss.
When the department arrived at
the scene, the fire had gained con-
siderable Roadway, and owing to
it's nature, it was impossible to
get a hose line into the basement.
The smoke was terrific and this al
SO was great handicap to the men
Of the department, who despite
these drawbacks did commendable
work in distinguishing the fire.
Chief George Fish in a state
ment to the Herald said that the
fire had started in the basement,
presumably from an over heated
furnace. He stated that the en-
tire floor, after the rafters had
burned partially, dropped from the
center at one time from the weight
of the heavy machinery. 1t was
necessary to work a hole through
the brick front to get hose into
the basement and after this was
done the f1remen held the flames
SO that the roof did not catch fire.
John Mondloch, fireman, was in
jured while working that morning,
having smashed a finger, which has
been quite painful to him since
that time.
The Burg Co., located next door
south of the bakery, suffered a
smoke and water damage to the
dry goods stock and the building.
1t will be necessary to repaint and
redecorate the interior. The base
ment was filled with water and it
was necessary to dig holes in the
cement floor to drain. The Candy
! Kitchen stock of candy, according
to statement Of c. G. Urness, Is
also a total loss owing to smoke
and the building will also need to
be redecorated. Across the street
the Golden Rule store was filled
with smoke which caused damage
to stock and the Waldorf Cafe was
also filled with smoke at times dur
ing the fire.
Mrs. Elizabeth Nathe, proprietor
of the building, stated that she in
tended to rebuild as soon as posi-
BILE. The building was covered
with insurance. A. e. Nelson, pro-
prietor of the bakery, stated that
he was not certain at this time as
to wether he would again open up,
but that If he did 1t would be
sometime in April. He stated that
his loss was twice as great as the
amount of insurance carried on fix
lures and machinery. Mr.. Nelson
came to Sank Centre last fall and
opened the bakery during the Har-
vest Festival.
Mrs. Nathe furnished lunches and
coffee for the f1remen at the Wal
dorf Cafe, and the men of the de-
partment heartily appreciated this
courtesy.
