remembered that Kampsen, Elrosa

star game at the fair grounds sever

Identification
Project Drew
WideInterest
Melrose Municipal Plant Of
fered To Furnish Current
To Farmer Organization

Getting the rural identification
project put over in Stearns county
received quite a boost last Friday
evening at a meeting of the board
of directors of the county cooper
alive electric at Albany. At that
meeting the board members went
over the list of shares Of stock sold
so far and discussed the possibili-
ties of getting the rural electrified
ton project put over. Before the
meeting was very far along offic-
ers of the city council at Melrose
together with the superintendent of
the municipal electric plant at Mel
rose appeared before the board and
manifested their interest in supply
ing current for the rural electrifi-
cation lines. The board members
were much pleased in having this
kind of a reaction coming from the
city of Melrose as it will mean at
least the west end Of Stearns coun-
ty can be satisfactorily served
through the REA program through
the hook-up at Melrose.
The officers present from Mel
rose stated that they are already
in a position to furnish a lot of ex-
ira current for farm use and IL
neei arises for more than they sre
able to furnish now that they stand
ready to put in the extra equip
ment needed. The matter of rates
for wholesale current as contracted
for by some of the county associa-
tions nearby was discussed and
while the Melrose people agreed
that some of the nearby counties
secured a very low rate they felt
sure that in the case of Stearns
county similar rates could be secur-
ed.
The county board of directors
will meet again on Friday of this
week to lay the groundwork for
completing the sign-up in a num-
Der of the townships. While the
number that can be secured to go
in on this plan at the immediate
present is not as large as was orig
inally anticipated, the most favor
able territories will be connected
up so that services can be arranged
for without having the users scat
tered over too thin an area.

Football Practice
Opens Thursday
Nearly Forty Men Expected To
Gallop To Field For High
School Squad

Cloudy skies, and crisper wealth
er sending ambitions a little high
err, signal that football season is al.
most within pointing distance
Even while thoughts of this were
being secuted around the air Coach
Gene Harvey sends word that he
will be set to go on next week
Thursday, September 3rd. All those
fellows who have interest in the
sport are expected to be on the
field at p. M, that afternoon.
Rigorous drills in fundamentals
and getting acquainted with the
signals and plays will occupy much
of the time, and meanwhile Coach
Harvey must keep a weather eye
out for placing his material. 1t will
be mad scramble of frenzied work
in the first two weeks, for games
are booked early. School opens on
the 14th and the season kicks off
that same week, on Friday the
18th, with Albany the first oppos-
ition. Since the first game comes
only four days after school opens
IL 10 4ultC unnecessary IiidI OH Cdi ~
practice be begun.
1t is expected that nearly forty
men will gallop onto the field on
next Thursday. Coach Harvey loses
three key men this year which
necessitates several important
changes in the lineup.
Six games will compose the
schedule for the local lads. Pub
LEGATION of the schedule is delayed
because of a quick turn that
prompted a re-arranging of the
games. It was expected that the
school would have a lighted field
this year, and several more home
games were scheduled than ordin.
arily. Since there will be no lights
revision is necessary. Coach Har-
vey expects that with hard work
he can put a team in the field this
year that will be a good one. He
loses only a few men, but in key
positions. His material will be
heavier this year, 1t is thought
and a little more seasoned, though
interspersed with enough green
men to make the competition for
positions keen.

agreed to fix the road to the Todd

asked the City Council to complete
the two mile stretch outside the

caterpillar tractor and grader for
the work, for which the city would
be paid by the county.
At a meeting of the Council Fri
day night, at which a number OF
farmers, who reside north of Sank
Centre, were in attendance, the
Council decided to accept the pro,
position of the County Commission
ers to rebuild the u Trail to the

Glauc0naa Is Eye Disease
Usually of Middle Age

the high pressure does damage to the
optic nerve and retina. sometimes
causing intense pain.
It is for this reason that the ocu-
list. In examining your eyes. always
tests the tension with his fingers
over the closed lids. If there is any
marked or even moderate glaucoma,
his fingers will not deceive him. In
milder or earlier cases an instru-
ment called the "tonometer". applied
to the eyeball, will indicate the ex-
ternal pressure.
The condition is almost entirely
confined to people of middle age. and
the complaint is usually not about
the eye, but severe headache.
If the eyes do give symptoms there
are peculiar disturbances Of vision
consisting Of coloration rings and
halos Of different colored lights about

The treatment consists in giving
something which will reopen the

DOWN
WHEN NOT TO PULL TRuMPs

AS OPPOSED to the two occasions
when declarer should at once pull
trumps. either by leading them or by
forcing defender to ruff an estab-
lished side suit. as detailed last
Wednesday, there are three kinds Of
holdings when declarer as positively
must not pull trumrs before he has
accomplished another purpose. The
first of such types is as illustrated
by the hand shown below. Dummy's
Tong suit must be led before trumps
are pulled. or declarer will be un-
able TO obtain enough discards Of
losers to fulfill a game contract.
