Store of l78
Mems S Suits
THIEVES ENTER BY WAY
OF SKYLIGHT, LEAVE
THROUGH DOOR

Marshall = Breaking into the
Olson and Lowe clothing store
here late Monday night, burglars
stole 178 suits of clothes repre-
senting a loss of $500.
The getaway car used by the
burglars may have been a 1886
Oldsmobile, because the back Gus
hionS and back seat of 1886 mo-
del were found next morning near
a side road which turns left past
the Dan Moore farm on highway
10. Tire tracks near the place
corresponded with tracks in the
alley back of the Olson and Lowe
building.
Mr.. Lowe thinks the burglary
must have occurred at some time
between 1870 and IL: 80. Entry
was made through the skylight
in the one-story rear part OF the
building. A pane was removed
and a double length of stout and
knotted window cord fastened to
the frame. The burglars slid
down this cord into the store, re-
moved the suits from the cases,
and left through the rear door.
The carefully worked out de-
tails show that the burglary was
done by professionals, who used
gloves.
The burglary was discovered
by James McCready and Henry
Vergote who noticed that the
Olson and Lowe door was swung
open, and suspecting something
amiss, entered the door, calling
whats going on here!" The
place was empty.
Police radio station KIND at
Redwood Falls was Immediately
notified and broadcasts were sent
out.

office and his daughter, Bessie, 20,
became the third victim of the
crash when she died Tuesday at
1:20 p. m. at the Montevideo hos
pital. She had two broken legs,
decorations of the face and other
injuries.
The accident occurred when the

ed cuts abouAthefAce and badly
bruised hip.
Ebersviller, the driver, and a
companion, Robert Wee, 81, were
in car belonging to the Lee Mo-
tor company Of Dawson by whom
they were employed as statesmen.
The front end of the automobile
was completely telescoped into
the body, according to witnesses.
Two Renville doctors were call
ed to the scene where they adj
ministered first aid and then took
the victims in truck to their Of
fees. Later Ebersviller, Wee who
sustained decorations and was
bruised and Miss McBroom were
taken to the Montevideo institu-
ton. Walter was not seriously
hurt.
Only child of Charles Ebersvil-

Winter Sports
Plans Include
Track,Hockey
BASKETBALL, VOLLEY-
BALL, HORSESHOE,
BOXING PLANNED

Winter recreational activities
under the WPA and NYA promise
to be varied and interesting as the
program grows and becomes more
definite.
Boxing classes under the direc-
ton of Irven Buss, high school
manual training teacher, will be
given in Redwood Falls, in the
city hall if the city will permit
use of the rooms and plans are
to engage Jesse Slaymaker as
boxing and wrestling instructor
at Clements.
A horseshoe court to be open
for use by the public is being dug
in an unexcavated part of the
Lincoln school basement just off
the present shop rooms, by a crew
of five NYA workers. An indoor
track and jumping pit are also
planned.
Sanborn appears to lead in a
winter sports program with a
warming house already complet-
ed by NYA workers under the
supervision of Erwin LentZ. The
shack is located in Memorial
park where skating rink will be
cleared on the river and halt
mile long toboggan slide has
been dug into the side of a hill.
Hockey leagues will be formed
by communities including Red
wood Falls, Wabasso, Lamberton,
Belview, Morgan, Clements, Wal
nut Grove and Delhi where skat-
ing rinks are planned.
Friday evening persons in the
county interested in forming vol
ley and basket ball leagues will
meet in Wabasso to draw up a
schedule for play which will be-
gin in December. In Redwood
Falls teams headed by M. v. Kur-
schner and Leroy Westerman will
begin practice games next week.

Wide Program
of Extension
Work Planned
NEW PROJECTS FOR ALL
ON FARMS STUDIED
AT MEETING

A program co-ordinating rural
educational work and organiza-
tionS of men, women and chill
dren, first comprehensive project
of the kind to be attempted in
the county, was formulated at a
meeting of committee heads of
all groups working under the sup
ervision of the county agent and
home demonstration agent offices,
in Wabasso, Monday night.
Planning to work together on
all phases of extension work and
government emergency programs,
the group also admitted the nee
essity of organizing rural youth
groups and pledged themselves to
assist in building up clubs among
older farm boys and girls.
New projects include county,
wide program for home yard inn
provement. Plans are to pool or
ders for shade and fruit trees, to
train leaders to supervise land
scaping and to study blights and
diseases of fruit trees. Cleanup
week will be designated and OBJ
served at farms in the community
and the grounds around the All
club inn will be planted and land
scaped by club members taking
home Identification and forestry
work.
Discussion of establishing cold
storage plants for farm produce,
also a new idea this year, led to
plans for educational work in the
neld and proposals that leaders
visit plants of the type already in
operation.
House furnishing lessons, to be
conducted by Miss Lenore Cold
en-, include training center in
structions on harmony in color
and design, home made rugs and
table mats, slip covers and chair
pads, accessories for the home and
refnishing of furniture. One les
son a month will be given in the
fall and winter period.
A project in which Adrian M.
Wilson, county agent is especially
interested, is that of securing
health examinations for All club
youngsters. Leader training in
club work will be especially
stressed next year.
Poultry meetings, open to any
one interested are also a new
idea for 1887 activities.
A dairy herd Improvement plan
similar to one employed here
several years ago, in which the
cooperation of creamery boards
and managers was enlisted in
educational work, will also be in
augurated.
Among other farm interests to be
promoted are weed control plans,
soil conservation programs, crop
variety trials in which hybrid
corn will be raised, improved
pasture conditions in which DEM
onstration plots of Reed Canary
grass will be planted and Al
club crop Judging in which
youngsters viii participate in dis
trict contests before going to the

HITS EN- ON NOSE

On the nose for a winner!
That's the theme song of our
own Darby Hicks, Jr., (Wilfred
HetZeD. who picked 80 high
school winners last week with
10 losers, and $50 college win
ners and 43 losers. BY the way,
he forecast with uncanny ability
the final Of the Sank Centre
Foley tilt with 10 to 6 as his
choice. Darby is now attending
the University of Minnesota and
his predictions come to this pa
per right off the griddle.
For this week he chooses Long
Prairie to be humbled by Sank
Centre, 10 to O. To ease your
minds and save your finger
nails he tells us that Minnesota
will trample Nebraska q to Is.
(He doesn't worry like Bernie
does.) The Darb peers into the
crystal each week and DOMINIC
his swami costume has been do
ing a fair job. Halsey Hall rates
him pretty high as picker. The
Long Prairie game, reminding
us of twenty years ago when
Sank centre defeated them 81 to

WPA-Petition For Tarva
On Streets

At a meeting in the Community
Club rooms Monday evening. Sank
Centre Township farmers decided
to commence a road jroject under
the WPA program in the near fu-
ture. The new road which will run

ing to present a petition to the res
idents of Sank Centre asking that

Plan As Cooling Unit

In steadily improving the Oxford
Theatre, F. L. Parsons, manager,
has made it one of the most popu-
lar play houses in this section OF
the state. Many improvements have
been made during the short period
he has been in charge, and all of
them have been for the comfort of
the patrons.
The latest improvement was an
nounced to the Herald Wednesday,
upon the completion of a new and
modern heating system. 1t will be
fired by an Iron Fireman stoker,
and will be so arranged as to blow
the heat into the building in the
same manner as that of the cool
ing system. The cold air will be
drawn from the floor and the heat
will be blown in from above, to in
sure even heat. This system will
provide comfort in any and all
kinds of weather. The installation
of the new heating system was COM
pleted Wednesday Of this week.

and then pay the import duty ana
undersell the American producer,
the New Zealand dairyman certain
ly has some advantage.
In this connection 1t should De
remembered that pasteurization
doesn't insure health standard,
except in theory. Pasteurization
100 per cent effective perhaps would
but this efficiency is rarely rever
attained.
Our boosted increase in the span
of human life is largely the result
of our sanitary standards in regard
to milk. This life increase Is the
result of the decrease in the death
rate of babies. Even In England to-
day 1000 people die every year OF
bovine (not human) tuberculosis,
and it is the general practice there
to boil all milk before drinking.
The American dairy industry Is
always within a hairline OF the ex-
port basis, and as a result the price
balance Is so delicate that the i'm
portation of an inconsequential
amount Of, say butter, knocks the
domestic price down. 1t sounds
very convincing to say that our
creamery butter imports amount
only to Ia per cent of our domes-
tic production, but it Is a well
known fact in the butter market
that the advent, or even the news
of the coming, of a single foreign
shipment, quantitatively negligible,
often beats down the New York
butter price as much as 2 cents.
Governor Landon has shown In
all his talks with me that he thor
oughly understands the situation OF
the northwestern dairymans as
well as the beef and pork producer.
He is anxious to give them every
advantage toward the possession OF
the American market.
Sanitary import requirements.
equal to those imposed on the Min
nesota dairyman, not only would
be a safeguard to the public health
but would materially reduce, and in
some cases extinguish, destructive
foreign competition.
I certainly think that the Mime
sofa dairyman and meat producer,
looking after their own business
interests, should well consider this
promise made by Governor Landon,
which promise am sure he will
keep if elected.
