House of David
VS.. Independents
Will Meet Fast Travelling Team
Friday Evening, March Is
In School Gym

Unlucky Friday, March 13, will
feature the Sank Centre Independ-
ents in their final exhibition with
a professional travelling club, the
House of David quint. The game,
which is sponsored jointly by the
Independents and the Athletic
Club, will take place in the Junior
High School Gym.
For five seasons the House of
David team has travelled in the
Middle and Far West and the Pac-
ific Coast averaging 125 games
during the season, and with win
ming streak rating nearly 80 per-
cent. The quint is composed of
former college stars and former
members of the Benton Harbor,
Michigan colony. Only one man
among the outfit stands less than
six feet and he only misses the six
foot mark by one inch.
The Independents have a better
than average volunteer basketball
outfit. Taking the major share of
their games they furnished real en-
joyment for local fans. Pat Dubois
has led the way on the scoring end
and for most of the season, but in
the Dubois duo and Jim O'Gara is
one Of the best ball handling trios
in this part of the state. Sieben
and Cook, playing the guard posi-
tons, have been responsible for
their share of the points and have
made shooting tough for the oppos-
ition.
Season tickets issued the first
part of the year will not be ac-
knowledged for this attraction. Ad-
mission prices will be announced
later.

Wallace and Mrs. B. J. Schram,
who reside in Minneapolis. She is
also survived by one grandson,
Jack Wallace Schramm.
Following her marriage to Mr..
Wallace, they resided for time at
Minneapolis, Preston, Chatfield,
Wykoff, Grand Meadow and Fair
fax, where Mr.. Wallace was en-
gagged in various newspaper enter
prises. In 1913 the family came to
Sank Centre, where Mr.. Wallace
purchased and edited the Herald,
and they resided here until the
death Of Mr.. Wallace on Friday
July u, 1884.
Mrs. Wallace was a member OF
Naomi Chapter, o. e. S., and the
Past Matron's Club. of this city
! She was the Worthy Matron OF
Naomi Chapter during the years OF
1919, 1923, 1924, and 1927, and was
very active in the work Of the East
ern Star during her entire residence
in Sank Centre. She was also a
charter merlper of the D. A. r. in
this city.
Mrs. Wallace led an active life
and at times assisted her husband

splendid woman and was revered
by all who knew her.

Entails Damming Of Small
Streams and Flooding
of Marginal Lands

In the issue Of the Herald of
February Goth appeared an account
Of the agricultural relief measure
planned by Henry Borgmann, of
this community. This bill was sub
mitted to the Secretary of Agricul-
ture by Congressman Harold Knut-
son.
Supplementing the plan submit
ted by Mr.. Borgmann is one pro-
posed by Oscar J. Lying, farmer of
Kandota township, for the purpose
Of maintaining water levels and re-
tanning moisture. This plan entails
the damming of small streams and
flooding of marginal lands through
out the country where possible, as
an aid to agriculture. It would also
help to rebuild our lakes which
have suffered through the drouth
years.
The proposed plan Is a good one
as damming Of streams Is the only
sure way that the water levels of
lakes can be maintained. This is
proven by the fact that Sank Lake
which Is controlled through the
10 IiiC oiiJ idhC III tiiio oCStioD
of the country which has not
reached a dangerously low water
level. Besides an aid to agriculture
the plan can be considered as of
great benefit to conservation of
wild life, migratory birds and fish.
The following is copy of the
letter in explanation of the plan
which was sent to the Department
of Agriculture in Washington, D.

 Same Shot of Fuel
 The injectors give each cylind- CT exactly the same shot of fuel, whereas the quantity varies some with carburetors. Injectors also cut down the danger of fire as backfires are impossible with them.
 Gas is shot into the cylinders with a nozzle pressure of 250 pounds.

Bob Montgomery Thinks
Hum0r Is Great Stuff
Though.
Times Special

L tWCS SDfc1nb
HOLLYWOOD, March IA
sense of humor, thinks Robert
Montgomery, is the most important
thing in the movie business, but
when property man comes on the
set to tell him his car has a fiat
time, it is hard for him to practice
what he breaches.
"A sense OF Iiumor-comedy, the
light touch, call it what you will,
has been responsible for the de-
velopment of more stars than any,
thing else, the star says,
Its the one thing we all want,
the circumstance of life being what
it is. Humor of course, is not just
some fellow with grin, but the
understanding which springs from
deep philosophy and courage
ut is the answer to the dictates
of common sense which says, don't
take things so seriously. Relax,
they're not that important"
just then the property man ap-
preached MIR. Montgomery" he
said, your car has a fiat tire. 1
just saw it coming in"
The star, set-faced, rushed out.
His sense of humor suddenly had
vanished.
