Will Be Held
In Community Club
Rooms, 800 P. M.
OPEN TO ALL
Representative of FILA
Will Give Full
Exclamation of Plan

For the purpose of providing in
formation as to how a home can
be bought under the Federal Hous-
ing Administration plan a meeting
will be held on Thursday evening,
April 18th. at eight o'clock in the
Community Club rooms. This
meeting, the first of it's kind to
be held in this city, will be under
the sponsorship of both of the city's
banks.
Realizing that many new homes
are needed and that some of the
old homes need repairs and i'm
provements, the First State Bank
and the Merchants National Bank
have agreed to sponsor the FILA
insured mortgage financing plan
in this community. For that rea-
son this meeting is open to the
general public and all interested
are cordially invited to attend.
Two representatives of the Min
neapolis Insuring Office of the FILA
will be present to speak on the
plan and give full information con-
corning all angles, those of inter-
est to the prospective home build
err, the contractor, the banker, and
storekeepers.
Interest in FHA's program of
home ownership in this commun-
ity prompted this meeting, as
number of local homes have been
bought through FHA-insured fin
ancing, as well as a number Of
others which have been repaired,
altered and modernized through
the agency's Property Improve
ment Credit Plan.
Under FHA's program of Home
Ownership, many thousands of
homes throughout the entire coun-
try have been bought on terms new
err before available, it is announc-
ed. Under the program, only one
mortgage is permissible, and Sec
ond and third mortgages never
come due to bother the home buyer
with high renewal fees or exhorbi-
tant charges. Moreover, it is ex-
planned, the interest rates on mort
cages are now lower than ever be-
fore, due largely to FHA's influ-
ence. The present rate permissible
under FTIA-insured financing is
Az percent.
Other features of FHA's plan of
Home Ownership include at least

Battery Commander and
Sergeants Visited In City

Community Club and the service
organizations and citizens before
they left. The first of this fund
was spent recently for the pur-
chase of footballs, basketballs,
baseballs and bats. It will be
used for the purpose of purchasing
equipment for sports and enter
tainment, said Captain Fischer.
Baseball is now the outstanding
sport in camp, although they have
material for a good basketball
quint and football team. The boys
played a game with the Crookston
outfit recently and won by the
score of 10 to 5. Bud Soltau,
mound artist for the battery team,
did fine job of pitching and hit
two home runs during the game,
said Sergeant Dubois.
During Captain Fischer's visit to
the Herald, arrangements were
made for a Camp news column,
the first of which appears on page
eight of this issue. This news let
ter will carry stories about the
boys activities, sports, entertain
ment, etc. Contributing to this
news column this week are Priv
ate Maurice Mischke, Corporal
Russell Nelson and Private J. B.
Flock.
Captain Fischer requested that
we tell our readers that all the
boys are getting along well and
that there is no illness in camp.
IF anything serious occurs to any
boy, his parents will be notified
Immediately. The Captain and
Sergeants enjoyed their visit in
this city, and allayed any fears
local people might have that their
boys are not getting what they
should have. Sergeant Dubois, in
charge of the mess, sees that the
boys are very well fed, but stated
that the boys always look for
sweets from home, as well as let
tiers and news from home folk.

Since 1888 the Community Club,
through its highway committee
chairman, d. B. Caughren, has
made efforts to get the road west
Of the Home Schools to the golf
course blacktopped. Various prom

that committee, we believe, has
made the project a possibility.
Last week, a group representing
the City Council and the Com

ers in an attempt to get the black
topping done this year. Those who
represented the two bodies were
