ton at Dulwich School He quick
~ tired of his banking vocation

startling story of modern prisons
written by Morris Lavine, former
metropolitan newspaper man, is
playing tonight only at the Coli
scum Theatre, with Richard Dix
starred. The new Metro Goldwyn-

The plot of DAY of Reckoning
centers on the conditions within a
mans home while he is confined in
prison The efforts of wife to
maintain a family by plunging into

leading to dramatic olnax
which destroys mans happiness
only to enable him to find faith
and security at the finish.

embezzled money from his firm
the weakness of his wife, leading
to an affair with family friend
her murder by another outraged
woman, the frantic breakdown OF
Dix in prison, the fight between
the family friend and Dix when
they meet in prison, the final pro-
baton of Dix and his start on a
new life.

Under the most depressing con-

ranged program Of entertainment
which should appeal to the farmers
Of Stearns and adjacent counties.
It has been recognized for years
that the real backbone of the coun-
ty fair was the cooperation of the
400 or more young folks on the
farm interested in the All Club
movement.
The officers of this years fair
are enthusiastic over the splendid
cooperation Of the All clubs under

Glenwood painted a gooseegg on

innings the game stood at zero for
both teams, it being one Of the pref
test pitchers duels ever witnessed

seventh the masterful pitching of
Goerndt held them. In the eighth
a lucky stab robbed the locals OF
two runs. Glenwood's first baseman

threw the ball to third to catch
Soltau and end the threat.
Glenwood scored two runs in the

Big Game Hunter
To Speak June 20
Expert Marksman to Tell Thrilling
Adventures at Junior High
Auditorium

Mountain sheep in the wilds of
the upper Yukon, or blood madden
ed lions of the African veldt, they
all look alike to Gus Peret, crack
shot and famous hunter, who will
tell the hair-raising story of his adj
ventures while he shows the NOV
ing pictures which prove that he
actually did these things instead of
merely drawing on a fertile imagi-
nation.
Mr.. Peret comes to this city the
night of June 26, under the auspi-
ces of Sank Centre Conservation
Club and through the courtesy of
the TIillerud Hardware. His eight
reels Of unfaked pictures, we are
told, make arm chair sports afraid
to go home in the dark while the
dyed-in-the-wool hunters stand up
and paw the air. They will be
shown at the Junior High Auditor
ium beginning promptly at S:15.
Mr.. Peret, whose home town Is
Yoncella, Ore, attended the Uni
versity of Oregon where he played
football and basketball. While he
was resting from these strenuous
labors he practiced with the rifle
and revolver to such effect that up
on his graduation he was hired by
The Peters Cartridge Company as
an exhibitionist. So proficient is
he that he can draw pictures with
a % calibre rifle.
Not the least interesting feature
Of these pictures is that they show
the country and the animals as they
really are instead of in the artific-
ial atmosphere Of Hollywood.
Here are open plains, not jungle,
on which thousands of head Of
game are seen each day and as
many as twenty lions. Lions, it
appears, will leave humans alone
unless bothered. 1nen, as most Of
the men know only too well, it Is
the ladies who start the trouble

When that happens, your black boy
hands you your elephant gun which
is a big double rifle shooting a

Defeated for Democratic
Nomination by Regain
NELSON G.. O. P. HEAD
Complete List of Candidates
for Congressional and
State Offices

Approximately 100000 votes were
cast by the citizens Of Minnesota at
Mondays primary elections. Gov.
Floyd Olson had little or no oppo-
sition in securing the Farmer-La-
Dor nomination for reelection.
Martin A. Nelson, Of Austin,
Mimi, World War veteran, will
be the standard bearer of the Re
publican party at the November
election.
John e. Regain, bombastic Man
kato attorney, Democratic nominee
two years ago as head of the rum
pers of the party opposed to the
domination Of the big Bad Wolf
wrested the Democratic nominal
ton from Fred Schilplin, st. Cloud
publisher by a majority which will
be in the vicinity Of 10000 when
complete returns are in.
There was hope of coalition be-
tween the Democrats and Republi-
cans If Mr.. Schilplin were nomi-
mated with the st. Cloud man
heading the fusion ticket.
The Democratic party Monday
polled the largest primary vote on
record in this state. The assump-
ton is that thousands of Republi-
cans voted presumably for Mr..
Schilplin with the coalition idea in
mind.
There was some talk in the Twin
Cities Tuesday, and Wednesday of
a combination Of Democratic par
ties.
It is a cinch that Mr.. Regan will
refuse to withdraw. It is also a

Governor Olson VIII Speak
At Steurws Fair July 3rd

after year, attracts, perhaps, more
interest with the young folks, than
any other feature Of the fair.
The dance floor has been leased
to Tuddy Kalhldahl, Of Glenwood,
perhaps the most experienced
manager Of dances in Central Min
nesota. There will be dances Tues
day and Wednesday evenings.
At the last meeting Of the d.
rectors a resolution was passed
asking the Sank Centre business
men to donate labor at the en-
trance gates and grand stand.
The Herald Is strong for this re-
solution. The fair officers have
adopted an economy program. They
must cut down expenses. The bus
mess men have an opportunity to
cooperate.
This year everybody, fair officer
or others will pay admission when
they enter the gate. Many men
are donating their services but
they are paying their way into the
fair.
The Agricultural Society Of
Stearns County is in very good a.
nancial condition as compared with
the other fair associations Of the
state.
It is up to every citizen Of Sank
Centre and Stearns county to sup
port the 1884 fair July 2, and 4.

of Confidence

Notwithstanding the fact that
there were a number Of active
candidates for political office from
this city only about 80 per cent of
the voters exercised their right Of
suffrage at Mondays primary cleo
ton.
About ten per cent of the ballots
cast were thrown out because they
were either illegally marked or
were entirely blank.
The voters Of the Sank Centre
community showed a fine spirit Of
cooperation by giving the local
candidates splendid Endorsements.
They were in something of a
quandry, however when they were
called upon to choose a candidate
for county commissioner as five of
the eight candidates were from the
Sank Centre community.
Fred Schilplin, publisher Of the
st. Cloud Times-Journal, received
301 votes in this city, nearly so
per cent of the total vote cast. This
vote was even a heavier percent
age than he received in his home
city Of st. Cloud. Many state bal
lots were cast with the name Of
Mr.. Schilplin the only one indoors
ed. It is presumed that many Re
publicans cast their ballot for the
st. Cloud gentleman, not only be-
cause they desired to honor a citi-

cause they believed he was the one
