Large Group Met
In Sank Centre Last
Week Wednesday
ELIGIBILITY
New Way of Distri-
buting Surplus Foods
Orange and Blue Stamps

A large number of businessmen
of Sank Centre and surrounding
cities and villages, as well as
town board members, city and
county officials, gathered in the
Community Club rooms last week
Wednesday night to hear explain
atoms Of the Food Stamp Plan. An
effort Is being made to install this
plan of merchandising under the
Surplus Commodities Act in
Stearns County.
Representatives Of the Surplus
Commodities office and the County
Welfare Board were present to ex-
plain the plan in detail. Ed Stork-
niger, secretary Of the Chamber Of
Commerce, st. Cloud, was also one
of the speakers. r. w. Flannery
and Lloyd Wruck, of the Surplus
Commodities office, and J. A.
Kraus, executive secretary of the
Stearns County Welfare Board, st.
Cloud, presented the information
to businessmen.
Representative groups from
Sank Centre, Padua, Melrose, New
Munich and St. Rosa were present,
as were representatives of the
Alexandria Chamber Of Commerce,
who are interested in the Stamp
plan.
Mr.. Kraus, of St. Cloud, in a
letter to the Herald, stated, that
the plan was unanimously approx
ed at a meeting in the Granite City
held the evening of November 30th
and there seems to be no doubt
about it's adoption in the county
in the very near future. Mr.. Kraus
also expressed appreciation Of the
very fine treatment received at the
hands Of city officials and others
at the meeting in this city.
Explanation of the Food Stamp
Plan was given as follows:
The Food Stamp Plan is a new
way of distributing Surplus Foods
It's purpose is to make use of the
surplus farm products which can
not be sold, due to the fact that
many persons do not have the
money to buy them. BY the Food
Stamp Plan, the farm surplus
commodities in the territory In
which the plan is in operation will
be consumed at home by the clients
who are eligible. Eligible clients
are persons on Direct Relief, Sol.
dier's and Sailors Relief, Aid tc
Dependent Children, Aid to the
Needy Blind, Old Age Assistance
or those of WPA who are certi'
fled by the Stearns County Wei
fare Board.
The plan is called the Food
Stamp Plan, because Orange and
Blue stamps are used by the client
to purchase foods from his local
grocer. The Orange stamps are
good for the purchase of foods sold
at the retail store. The Blue stamps

Retail Butter
Market Up
Eight Cents
Creamery Paid
Patrons $14,504 For
September Fat

With a two months steady price
rise that brought retail butter
prices eight cents above the Sep
TENDER market, the Sank Lake Co
operative Creamery Association
continued to pace the rise with
increases in production, it was
learned this week as secretary Geo.
Strauss announced the November
payroll to patrons Of $14,504.
AS retail prices moved to a new
November peak in a five cent gain
in the month, Mr.. Strauss pointed
Tuesday to the fact that prevail
ing prices of that day for sweet
cream butterfat was SIC cash.
A market that started it's up
swing late in September, caught at
first with tagging production, has
continued its climb in the face Of
general gains in butter production,
it was pointed out. Retail price
for butter in the city Tuesday was
80 cents.
While often such continued
rises are reactiOnary upon
slowing production, the cream
cry was able to point to rec
ords showing November pro-
duction, In which the greatest
price rise occurred, more than
5000 pounds over the same
month of a year ago.
For the first eleven months of
fhis war tho creamerv 10 hoatip O.
it's record output of a year ago by
more than 10000 pounds, he an
nounced.
In addition to the fact that the
farmer-producer was holding up his
end Of production, Mr.. Strauss
pointed to the fact that November

MeYited SiIver
Be0verAw0rd
Scoutmaster Honored
By Osakis People At
Booster Club Meeting

II. J. Kerneghan, former resident
Of Sank Centre, was honored last
week Monday evening, when the
people Of Osakis presented him
with one of the highest wards in
Boy Scout Work. The people Of
Sank Centre, who know Harvey,
rejoice with him in this recent hon
or, which was well merited. The
Osakis Review had the following
article, which pertains to the event:
H. J. Kerneghan, Scoutmaster Of
Osakis Troop No. 126, Boy Scouts
Of America, was the recipient of
one of the highest awards that can
be given a man for his services to
Scouting on Monday evening when
the Booster Club meeting was CIV
en- over to honoring the Osakis
school principal.
Rev. Edwin G. Johnson, pastor
of the Congregational Church, Of
Alexandria, had been chosen by the
Fargo office Of the Red River VAL
ley Council, B. s. A., to make this
award Of the Silver Beaver to Mr..
Kerneghan, and his remarks of
praise for the work that had been
done by Mr.. Kerneghan were well
received. He pointed out that the
Osakis troop was regarded as one
of the best in the Red River Val
ley Council and that its high stand
ing was due to the conscientious
efforts Of the Scoutmaster since he
had learned enough from DR.. FL
liott's remarks to know that the
troop committee was like practical
ly all others not very active when
it came to promoting the actual
Scout work.
The Alexandria minister added
that these are troublous, uncertain
times and we wonder where we are
going and whether we are going
forward at all or not, and If it were
not for men like Kernghan who
by example and precept guided our
boys Alright 1t would be very easy
for it all to end in chaos.
In behalf of the district, and the
Red River Valley Council the
speaker congratulated Mr.. Kerng-
han on his receiving the Silver
Beaver, adding that 1t was his earn
est hope that this unusual award
would spur him to even greater eff
forts in behalf Of boys and Boy

sending men to fight on foreign soil.
Has this country ever been in wal
when It did not fight on foreign soil,
Can any country expect to win a wal
unless It fights on foreign soil?
Some people say, Hitler has al
ready stated that he has no inten-
tion OF disturbing the Western Hem
isphere, 80 why should we have to
prepare?" To most people, the fool
ishness Of such an argument Is ap-
parent. To the rest Of the people,
logic and common sense do not ap-
peal. II Is useless to reason with
people who believe any statement
made by Hitler, Goering, ct al for
American consumption.
No one can do much to stop Hitler
by himself. Nevertheless, the per-
son who says There is nothing
can do about It," and then does
nothing, Is mistaken. In years to
come, II Hitler does win, anyone who
does his best to stop him, will at
least have the satisfaction of know
ing he had tried to do something.
And, il enough people try, Hitler may
be stopped.
Are you going to do your part in
trying to stop Hitler? What are you
going to do? You don't know? You
don't have time to think about 1t
because you have something else to
do right now Maybe you will start
some day? That is just it. That is
the reason Hitler is depending on
you. He knows that there are enough
others, just like you, who will keep
this country doing nothing until he
(Hitler) has cleaned up England,
and then we will be gone.
What can you do? Write your Con-
gressman and your United States
Senators that you are in favor Of
giving all possible help to Great
Britain Immediately. Also say that
you dislike the idea of the German
and Italian diplomatic services being
used as nerve centers for espionage
against the United Statos. Then you
can add, that since Hitler is really
AZ war with US anyway, we have
nothing to lose by being at war with
Hitler. This will close up the hos
tile embassies and consular Offices
and also stiffen British resistance. J
II you do this, you will make your
self unpopular with some people. But
what is a little unpOpularity compar-
ID to the danger of German bombs
