st. Paul Jan PA SO per cent
cut in automobile licenses for 1888,
which would reduce the state high
way revenue from $9,600,000 in 1882
to S4,800,000 was recommended by
the motor vehicles committee of
the state senate late Tuesday. This
schedule would establish SIS
license for Class A cars and $6.25
as a minimum for Class B cars, the
rate on other cars being cut from
"a per cent of the basic value to IL
per cent.
An earlier motion by Senator
Tiegen of Minneapolis to make the
cut 25 per cent instead of so per
cent was rejected, 8 to 4.
The action taken by the senate
committee, was in accord with the
house motor vehicles committee as
far as licenses for cheaper cars
was concerned, but differed in the
higher brackets. The house COM
mittee had recommended so per
cent slash in the minimum rates,
but only 20 per cent cut for the
more expensive cars.
The drives license and financial
responsibility bills, presented in
the house last week, were also in
PRODUCED in the senate.
A 25-cent fee for drivers is pro-
vided and drivers held responsible
for accidents and failing to pay
damages would have their license
suspended.

Com. Club

Meet Jan. 20
Pretty Race for President Be-
tween Carl Fischer and
Capt. Roy Scott
COMMITTEES REPORT
Zoning Project Explained
312 Meetings Held at
Club Rooms in Year

The annual meeting of the Com
Thursday evening was, without
doubt, the most interesting session
held during the past year. Fifty
three members responded to the
call of President Carl Fischer, who
called the meeting to order.
Following the reading of the min
utes by Secretary John Hansen, at
torney L. L. Kells was called upon
to introduce Mr.. Herman Olson, city
planning engineer, of Minneapolis,
who presented data and ideas for
the coming system. The idea of
coming the city has been in the
minds of some citizens for quite
sometime.
Mr.. Olson said that a good plan
of coming would protect the values
of our property assets and would
be, if prepared correctly, a great
benefit to the city and it's property
holders.
In plan of coming for the city of
Sank Centre, there would be, as in
all cities, strictly residential dis
trict, where no business could be
established, with possibly other re-
strictions in building and locations
of buildings. Also certain business
enterprises would have specific
places to locate, so that property
rights of those adjoining would not
be violated.
Mr.. Olson said that coming first
became effective in New York City
in 1915 and was for a time used
only in cities of the first class.
However, in the year 1881, the leg
islature of our state passed a bill
granting power to all the smaller
municipalities to enforce and enact
a coming ordinance. At the present
time 10 cities and villages in Min
nesota have adopted the plan. In
order to pass coming ordinance in
this city it must be voted on at a
regular election. It will probably
be some time before this plan will
be presented to the electorate for
consideration.
Following this the various COM
mittee chairman were called upon
to make their reports, however, on
ly few of the units had been ac-
tive or had work to do during the
year. ]. B. Schoenhoff, of the men,
bership committee, reported that 20
members had paid their dues for
the present year and that 30 others
had promised to retain their men,
bership in the club. Robert Schwal-
en-, as chairman Of the House COM
mittee, stated that that body had
made several improvements during
the past year and recommended on
Iy one improvement for the coming
year. He stated that the club
rooms were in ship-shape condition.
Louis Larson reported for the
parks and Fairgrounds committee
and its activities pertaining to the
bathing beach, skating rink and
other projects. The committee was
active during the year and the sue
cess of its efforts are well known
to all
The efforts of the committee to
obtain star mail route running
from Sank Centre to st. Cloud have
up to the present time not been
successful. However, recommends
tons made by Roy Scott, chairman,
were to the effect that with added
work the route may be obtained.

that he had gone so far as to ask

Tons of Sand Put
On Icy Highways
State Department Making Strenuous
Efforts to Cut Car Skidding
Mishaps

Weather conditions have served
to make highways. more subject to
this season than in any
past recent years. a state highway
bulletin reports. Maintenance dis
tricts have been kept busy sanding
and resanding icy places in efforts
to safeguard highway users against
skidding mishaps. Hundreds Of
truck loads of sand have been
placed at places where skids were
most likely to occur, such as on
curves, hills and at intersections. In
some instances, highways have been
sanded for continuous distances of
several miles.
Two methods are followed, &C
cording to location, to help make
the sand stick to the ice surfaces.
Calcium chloride mixed into the
sand serves the double purposes of
keeping the storage piles of sand
from freezing, and when the sand
is spread on the road surface the
chloride helps it to some extent to
"bite in" In the northern part of
the state where fire wood is plenti-
full, the sand is heated before being
loaded into the trucks.
But neither of these methods, the
bulletin states, can keep sand in
place where cars travel over it at
high speed. The suction of the
tires loosens the sand, and the air
movement created by the speed Of
the vehicle takes it away. Slippery
spots that have been well sanded in
the morning hours are found total
ly clear by afternoon and polished
off to still greater condition of
Motorists are advised
to give consideration to these facts

viding intermittent thaws, the bull

Important Resolutions Affect
ing Wild Life Were Dis
cussed and Acted Upon
TO HOLD CROW SHOOT
Work of Deputy Game War
den Fred Mossman Was
Unanimously Endorsed

An interesting meeting of the
Conservation Club was held We'd
nesday evening, January 10Th, in
Community Club rooms. The meet
ing was called to order by Pres. r.
Schwalen, who Immediately asked
for the reports of various commit
tees, which had been assigned to
work at the last session.
The first report was relative to
the investigation of seepage at
Fairy Lake. It was stated that it
was considered impractical at this
time to endeavor to stop the seep-
age, owing to the cost. The State
Game and Fish Department is also
unwilling to set aside a fund by
which an engineer could be sent
here to make a survey.
A resolution, relative to the is
suance of game and fish licenses, as
adopted by the Albany Sportsman
Club, was read, as follows:
Whereas under the present
law the State Game and Fish
Licenses are sold by the County
Auditors of the various coun-
ties and they received COM
mission of ten per cent (10%)
from the State Game and Fish
Department, and such commits
sions in some Counties amount
to, as much as 100000 per year
or more and such commissions
are collected by the said Coun-
ty Auditors in addition to their
legal salaries as County Aud
itors.
and whereas the County Aud
itors under the present law ap-
point agents in different parts
of the County and these agents
receive no fees or commissions,
and in many instances charge
the applicant a fee for such
license.
Therefore be it Resolv-
ed, that the Albany Sportsman
Club favor enactment of law
which will enable the State
Game and Fish Commission to
appoint all agents directly and
allow to such agents the 1920
now paid to County Auditors,
and providing that a reasonable
Bond be given by each agent to
insure remittance of all moneys
collected to the State Game and
Fish Department, and further
| providing that any agent who
shall charge any additional fee
over and above the 1920 shall
be guilty of a Misdemeanor.
"The foregoing Resolution
was unanimously adopted by
the members of the Albany
Sportsman Club at it's annual

Periods

Swanville Defeated In Overtime
Periods
Sank Centre opened its season
on the home floor with Swanville
as the opponents. This quint had
played three games prior to visit
ing this city. They were in mid
season form because their practice
had not been interrupted by a
heavy football scedule.
The result was an easy victory
for Swanville.
Tuesday evening the locals tack
eled the Morrison county lads in
their own baliwick. The floor Is
unusually small and good sized
player can almost reach the ceiling.
This game will probably go down
as one of the classics of the season
as far as Sank Centre is concerned
at least. At the end of the first half
Swanville had a to lead. At the
end of the regular periods the
score was tied up in a nice little
knot 9 to 9. The overtime periods
were played in the first period,
each team scored a field goal, II to
IL. Neither team scored in the
second overtime play. Eariy in the
third Iwinski shot a beauty to
bring Sank Centres total to ID.
The Main Street defense frightened
and that was the way the game
ended, Sank Centre, IL, Swanville
IL.
Friday evening of this week Sank
Centre will go to Long Prairie. This
team was touted as the probable
district winners. They have skidd-
ed a bit, and have been defeated by
weaker teams than are Sank Centre
at present. Who can tell?
The following is the summary Of
Tuesday evenings game:
