The treaty has yet to be ratified by the senate. Industrial, labor and civic leaders from all sections of the country will be summoned to Washington soon by President Harding to participate in a conference on unemployment. The administration has shown concern for some time over the employment situation Latest reports from various sections indicate a serious situation next winter unless something is done to provide work for the millions of unemployed. With these facts before him, President Harding has directed Secretary of Commerce Hoover to arrange for a national meeting.

Mr. Hoover said the plans will be ready for the president's approval withm ten days and the call will go out at once. When congress resumes its special session it will give particular attention to the growing necessity for agricultural relief. One of the measures pending which will receive renewed consideration is the McFadden-Kenyon rural credit and multiple insurance bill, which already has had preliminary hearing before the house subcommittee on banking and currency and the joint commission of agricultural inquiry. The bill is designed especially to provide capital instead of credit for agricultural production, and every witness who thus far has appeared for the measure has emphasized the danger of submitting credit for capital in the financing of agricultural enterprse The time required for agricultural reproduction is too long, and bad banking practice is the credit stream becomes clogged, thus precipitating financial such as recently have occurred.

Senator Hamer, Waldo Hammargren and Other Speakers Deliver Short Addresses. The West Branch Creamery association held its annual picnic in N. P.

Olson's grove on Sunday afternoon. This picnic is one of the big events of the season and the attendance Sunday was up to the usual mark, about 300 persons being present. Quite a delegation drove out from Princeton and everyone seemed to thoroughly enjoy the afternoon. The early arrivals had their dinner the grove, which forms i delightful picnic grounds. Carl Johnson, vice president of the association, then took charge of the program and introduced the speakers of the afternoon.

Senator Hamer discussed the farmers cooperative marketing enterprises which he, of course, heartily endorses. He also discussed the action of the legislature on several bills backed by the farmer's association. Senator Hamer is always on the alert to do everything in his power to further the interests of his constituents. A representative of a co-operative newspaper made a short address. Waldo Hammargren then spoke briefjy regard to the farm bureau association in this county.

The farm bureau now has 425 members and the officers of the association wish to double this number within the next year. Mr. Hammargren stated that the Farm Bureau association is the organization that has been directing the drive for the Co-operative Creameries association. The state department of agriculture has rendered the association much valuable assistance this drive. J.

Heaton of Creston, Iowa, said a few words in regard to the National Farm Bureau federation. The federation now has 2,000,000 members enrolled with every state in the union representer except South Carolina. Mr. Heaton reports the farm bureau has a strong organization Iowa. In some counties every farmer is a member of the association.

After the speaking program was concluded, a portion of the cicwd went to the ball field to game between the Greenbush and Baldwin teams. It was. an interesting game and both teams made a good showing despite the fact that the grounds were somewhat sandy. Greenbush won by a score of 13 to 5. Grow and Lindstrom constituted the battery for Greenbush and Craig Anderson for Baldwin.

STOCKHOLDERS MEET. Stockholders Must Raise $40,000 if the Security State Bank of Milaca is to Reopen. The stockholders of the Security bank of Milaca met at the Casino tneater Monaay afternoon. Mr. Smith, state bank examiner, addressed the meeting and told the stockholders it would require $40,000 to make the bank again solvent.

The stockholders can raise this money themselves or new stock can be sold but in Mr. Smith's opinion they should have no difficulty in procuring this amount. The bank could then open its doors and continue to transact business. Committees have been appointed to devise ways and means of meeting this requirement and it is to be hoped that they will be successful in the undertaking. Milaca is a rich dairying country and there are many substantial farmers in that community who can undoubtedly raise quite a sum of money in a short time.

Marie Elizabeth Strenge. Marie Strenge, daughter of Mr and Mrs. B. of Wyanett, died at the Northwestern hospital on August 26. The cause of death was intestinal obstruction.

She was born at Big Stone City, S. D. on October 27, 1918. Funeral services were conducted in Ross' undertaking parlors by Rev. Vogel and the interment was at Oak Knoll.

She is survived by two brothers, one sister grandfather, besides other relatives Mrs. C. H. Borchers, and Mrs. C.

W. Schroeder and son of Charles City, Iowa, were among those in attendance at the funeral. The sympathy of the community goes forth to Mr. and Mrs. Strenge in their hour of sorrow.

REBEKAHMDI.O.O.F. Hold Joint Picnic at Princeton Fair Grounds and Present Very Enjoyable Program. Foot Races, Boxing Exhibitions, Tug of War and Baseball Game Among the Features. Odd Fellows and Rebekahs of the Princeton and Zimmerman lodges held a joint picnic at the fair grounds on Sunday which proved to be a most enjoyable event. Several hundred people participated in the festivities.

Basket luncheon was spread in the grove and there was a plentiful supply of good things to eat besides excellent coffee, cream and sugar provided free by the lodges. Joe Leathers presided over the coffee pot and everyone spoke high praise of the savory beverage which he brewed and served. The sport program consisted of foot races, boxing matches, a tug of war and a ball game. In the men's race C. Mulder won, in the' girls7 race Lucille Foley eame in first, and in the boys' race Elliott Radeke was the winner.

In each instance the prize was one dollar. The tug of war between Zimmerman and Princeton was won by the latter. There were two boxing exhibitions of two rounds each, the first between Herman Wresch and Walter Smith of Princeton and the second between "Tough" Oakes of Princeton and Henry Martin of Zimmerman. Harry Mott of Princeton was awarded vthe prize offered for the oldest Odd Fellow and Mrs. Eliza Neumann of Zimmerman for the oldest Rebekah.

They received one dollar each. Zimmerman won the ball game by a score of 12 to 11. Harry Pratt of Zimmerman, known to the sporting world as "The was master of ceremonies and well did he perform his part, interlarding his harangues with humorous quips and quirks which kept the large assemblage good humor. Some people accused him of not confining himself to the truth, but he made a'crackerjack of a master of ceremonies just the same. The picnic was in every way a success.

It brought people from the surrounding country together in a social way, and this in itself was well worth while. Princeton at all times welcomes gatherings of this sort within its gates and hopes there will be more of them. The Ball Game. The advertised ball game scheduled between the Odd Fellows lodges of Zimmerman and Princeton was pulled off at the big lodge'picnic at the fair grounds last Sunday. Those who came to scoff and make fun of the old warhorses and hasbeens remained to the end to see one of the most exciting contests that the old field has ever seen.

For nine full innings these erstwhile lodge brethren battled each other with blood in their eyes and utter disregard for the vows of fraternal love. It's the old story, we're all good fellows till we get in a ball game, or a poker game, Etnd then we all want to win and, as the that only one team can leave the field as victors, each team does its darndest to be the victors. In this case it proved to be the Odd Fellows from Zimtown and, when the last man was out in the ninth, the score stood 12 to 11 in favor of the visiting tribesmen. At that it was some game and the Princeton outfit has nothing to be ashamed of, as the margin was so close that the question of supremacy is hardly decided and the locals claim that in another contest they can take the number of this Zimtown gang. Zimmerman stepped out in the first frame and scored one run just to show the crowd.

they carried a knockout wallop in both fists. Nothing daunted by this bold affront, the locals came in and hammered out, or in, whichever you may want it, a total of three runs. Then for three full innings both sides played shutout ball, so at the end of the fourth the score stood 3 to 1 in favor of Princeton and both teams played like big leaguers. Zimmerman scored another one in the fifth, shut out their opponents in the same frame and came right back and took the lead in the next round. Three scores came in this mixup and Zimtown had the lead, 5 to 3.

The lucky seventh went by for both sides without damage. In the eighth Harry Pratt called his warriors together for a hurried consultation at the bench, with the result that they went out and banged in a total of three more, cinching their lead, 8 to 3. We don't know what kind of poison this old fox poured into their ears, but it seemed to do the business. At this stage of the game Brother Vandevanter, who used to be a great exhorter back in the old camp meeting days in Missouri, came to the rescue of the slipping A few hurried words from Van and they looked like a different outfit. With all the confidence in the world they started a batting rally that begun to start runs trickling across the plate at once.

PRINCETON, MI LLE LACS COUNTY, MINNESOTA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1921 They kept up the good work until in desperation Carter was rushed in to take the place of Hetrick, who had pitched good ball up to this point. Carter steadied the skidding Zimtown machine with his crafty work, bu.t the damage had already been done and six big juicy ones went up on the score board for the locals making the count 9 to 8 in their favor. Immediately the Princeton Odd Fellows began to tell their vhriting brothers how the hom3 team had just been fooling them along up to this point and now there was going to be nothing to it but the shouting. And so it worked out, but the shouting was all the other way. "Sliver" threw the boots into his athletes once more and back they came went over the third line Princeton defense in a rousing charge and planted four more counters at the home platescore 12 to 9 in favor of Zimtown.

Princeton made one more desperate effort in their half of the ninth, but the best they could do was two more and the game was over12 to 11 in favor of the visiting 'Odd Fellows. Notes. Clair Smith pitched the whole game for Princeton and with better support should have won. C. Johnson worked at the receiving end of the Princeton battery and did good work, Hetrick and Brown toiled for the visitors and Carter "came to Hetrick's rescue in the eighth.

All three' men worked like Trojans for the glory of their lodge. Zimtown played a better fielding game than the Princetonians. Their infield worked like a bunch of big leaguers at times, at other times (Continued on page 8.) WOUNDED BOY SURVIVES Eight Year Old Boy Shot Through Abdomen, Makes Perilous Journey, but Survives. The eight year old son of Mr. and Mrs.

J. C. Bcurgcrie bf Minneapolis, who was accidently shot through the abdomen with a 32 calibre revolver Saturday evening is now rapidly recovering from the almost fatal accident. The wounded boy was brought into the Northwestern hospital Sunday morning and has since that time has been under the care of Dr. H.

C. Cooney. Mr. Bourgerie and his sens, Robert and Russell, were at a camp about 20 miles north of Aitkin when the accident occurred. He had left the boys with a friend in a lodge on the shore of Mud lake Saturday afternoon while he was attending to some business affairs on the other side of the lake.

The boys had come into possession of a 32 calibre revolver and were shooting at targets. Through some accident, a shot was diccharged through the abdomen of the younger boy, Robert. Mr. Bourgerie was juct returning from his trip across the lake when lie heard the report of the revolver followed by the scream of the boys. A temporary dressing was placed on the wounds.

Mr. Bourgerie tl en rowed the boys a mile across Mud lake to his car and started on the long trip back through the woods to Aitkin. There a doctor put en fresh dressings and made Rebcrt as comfortable as possible for tr trip to Minneapolis. Some cf tTie roads in the wooded re- gion above Aitkin are decidedly rougn and Mr. Bourgerie had the misfortune to strip both his lower He drove practically all the way frcm Aitkin to Milaca on high gear through the heavy fog cf Saturday night and, of course, he was not familiar with the road.

As Robert was beginning to show severe shock symptoms and the extent of the internal injuries was unknown, his father realized that the drive had become a race with death. He arrived in Milaca before daybreak Sunday morning. He summoned Dr. Odell who told him his son would never live to complete the journey and advised him to stop at the Northwestern hospital in Princeton where he could secure the services of an expert surgeon. Robert was brought into the Northwestern hospital at 5 o'clock Sunday morning.

Dr. Cooney, who deemed an operation inadvisable, treated the patient for severe shock and dressed the wounds. Later developments proved that Dr. Cooney was correct in his diagnosis. An operation was not necessary and almost certainly would have been fatal.

The patient is progressing nicely and expects to leave the hospital within a few days. SIGNING UP FAST. Mille Lacs County Creameries Become Members of Minnesota Creameries Association, Inc. E. J.

Mr. Hammargren informed us this morning that the Isle, West Branch, Foreston, Milaca, Bock, Onamia and Pease creameries have become members of the association and that the Princeton creamery directors will meet this evening to consider joining. THE TOWNSHIP FAIR South Harbor Township Holds Fourth Annual-Fair at Cove, Splen- did Exhibits. Fruit and Forage Crop Displays Es- pecially Good, More Than Twen- ty Varieties of Apples.

South Harbor township held its fourth annual fair at the Cove school house last Saturday afternoon. Nearly every foot of display space was filled and the exhibits were exceptionally good. No attempt was made to display livestock but the fruit, vegetables, forage crops and the women's departments of needle canned fruits, pastry and flowers surpassed the exhibits shown at many county fairs. The three individual exhibits to which prizes were awarded were especially good. Oliver Wyse, who owns the Rose Lawn Nursery was awarded first prize.

He had a most complete display of grain and forage crops including pigeon grass, Canada blue grass, red top, fescue, brome grass, wild millet, blue joint, field peas, oats, barley, Japanese clover, sweet clover, Mexican bean, soy bean, buckwheat, okra, vetch ten feet high and alfalfa of the third cutting. He also had a good exhibit of vegetables including four or five varieties of squash, tomatoes, potatoes and corn. Apples were his chief fruit display and several of them drew the blue ribbon, Mrs. A. E.

Chapman captured the second prize. Most of her display was fruit and all the entries were artistically arranged. Great clusters vof beta grapes formed the background for the remainder of the display. These grapes are about an inch in diameter and come in big clustersthey are the finest the writer has ever seen in Mille Lacs county. The third prize for an individual exhibit was awarded to F.

C. Griffith, who had a good display of melons, apples, vegetables and forage crops. Ed. Bauer had an unusually fine display of apples with 16 varieties on exhibition. The soil and the climatic conditions in the lake country are certainly very favorable for apple culture.

The fruit exhibits from that region would make a big addition to our county fair but unfortunately we are not to have them this year. South Harbor township has sent down some splendid exhibits and we hope they can arrange to again display at the county fair next year. In the women's department there was an unusually good display of needle work and it was all neatly arranged. Among the most interesting exhibits in this department were some old-fashioned quilted bed spreads, the kind our grandmothers used to make in fact they were made by the grandmothers of the exhibitors. The quilt displayed by Mrs.

A. Wescott was made in 1851 and Mrs. Chas. Freer also exhibited one of about the same age. Another article that was of considerable historic interest was a homespun skirt made in 1861 by' a grandmother of Mrs.

Ed. Buckman. The skirt is of a maroon color with a fine stripe of gold thread and no one who felt the texture of that goods could doubt its wearing qualities. Mrs. A.

Brandt had the only individual exhibit in this department. In her display there was a bed spread, dresser set, quilt and several pieces of embroidery: Some first-class canned fxuit was on display and while there were not a great many flowers those that were exhibited were unusually fine specimens. There was also a small pastry exhibit. The people of South Harbor township deserve great praise for the enterprise and good community spirit they showed in making arrangements for their fair. It was a wonderful advertisement for that portion of the county and it is a shame that more people from other communities did not see the displays.

Correction. In the obituary of Pierre Raiche, published last week, the Union stated that deceased was survived by one son and one daughter, and this was the only information which could be obtained from questioning at least half A dozen persons who were well acquainted with Mr. Raiche in life. None of the relatives sent in detaijs. Now we are authoritatively told that he leaves three sonsOliver and David of Greenbush, and George of Rush Citywhereas the Union mentioned only George.

It, however, gave the name of the daughter, who lives in Greenbush. This paper does not profess to be a mind reader, but it is always willing to make corrections. Saxon-Johnson. A quiet wedding occurred at the Norwegian Lutheran parsonage in Santiago at 8 o'clock Saturday morning, Aug. 29, when Laura Georgina Johnson and James Robert Saxon were united in marriage by Rev.

O. M. Gullerud. The happy couple were accompanied by the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs.

Matt Johnson, and the groom's- mother, Mrs. J. M. Saxon. UNION After the ceremony they went to the Johnson home, where a sumptuous wedding breakfast served.

The bride wore a charming white of a late design and carried a dainty and attractive bouquet of sweet peas. The young people are prominent and highly respected in the community, and Blue Hill is fortunate to keep Mr. and Mrs. Saxon, who will make their future home on "the Bend farm which the groom purchased last year. Congratulations and good wishes to them.

COUNTY FAIR'OPENS Splendid Displays on Exhibition and Amusement Features of Fair Are Par Excellence. Township Exhibits Surpass in Quali- ty and Number Any Year in Fair's History. It is a foregone conclusion that Mille Lacs County fair will this year eclipse in magnitude, variety and quality of display anything heretofore witnessed in this part of the country. There are splendid displays in the agricultural, horse, cattle sheep, swine and poultry departments, while the exhibit of flowers and shrubs are beautiful in every particular. Fruit is of good quality and there is an excellent showing.

In the women's department canned foods, bread, pastry and needleworkthere are more entries than usual and the quality is good. The boys' and girls' clubs are also well represented as well as the schools of the county. The Red Cross is represented and the Women's auxiliary of the American legion, and there are several industrial exhibits: Yesterday (entry day) the livestock exhibits which came in were so numerous that it was found necessary to build additions to the big barns, recently enlarged, to accommodate them and to secure 50 more wire cages for the poultry. The management is entitled to praise for so promptly meeting the situation. Speaking of the livestock exhibits, there are many beautiful horses, some of them real prancing steeds which would impel an Arab to sit up and take notice.

And the cattleherds of purebred and grade dairy and beef stock which tell the story of Mille Lacs county's rapid advancement along this line. Sheep, swine and poultry are also of a particularly high auality. Six township exhibits have been entered and we do not envy the judge on whom will rest the responsibility of awarding the prizes in this department. If there was not another display on the grounds except these township exhibits they would be well worth the price of admission. Greenbush, Princeton, Bogus Brook, Page and Milo with two exhibits, are displaying in this department.

It is the first year Page township has made an entry and everyone will have to admit that its desplay is one of the neatest and most attractive that has ever been shown at our fair. However, the Page people have strong competition, becauce the Pimceton and Greenbush farm bureau units are the habit of doing thms well, an-' every inch of their display space is fllod with first class farm proJn'V. Bogus Brook and Milo have several times entered at our fair. They know how to put up an attractive display that has captured more than one prize and they have the material to make the showing. The amusement features for this year's fair have been secured regardless of expense and are the very best obtainable.

The fair is on. Go and enjoy yourselves. Patrolman Does Good Work. August Thoma, who is patrolman of that portion of the PiincetonSpencer Brook road which lies within Sherburne county, has been doing some most effective work this summer. The stretch of road crossing the river bottoms immediately south of town, which are commonly termed tho upper flats, was covered with crushed rock several years ago.

The fine rock had worn away and deep ruts had been formed. Mr. Thoma has covered this road with fine gravel and it is now in splendid condition, the best it has been in for more than ten years. We understand the lower flats are to be graded, ditched and eventually gravelled. The portions of the road that are sandy aie being covered with straw.

When this work has been completed every foot of that PrincetonSpencer Brook road that lies within Sherburne county, will be in -good condition. The state highway commission has adopted the right system in placing patrolmen on the state roads and August Thoma is a man who can satisfaction in this capacity. Zion's Mission Festival. The annual Mission festival of Zion's German Lutheran church, in the town of Princeton, was held last Sunday and, as usual upon such occasions, there was a large attendance. In the morning Rev.

Twenty-Five Instructors, a List of Whom is Hereunder Printed, Have Been Engaged School will begin on Monday, September 5. This is Labor day and a legal holiday, but it has been long customary to open school upon that day for the enrollment of pupils. They are therefore asked to appear and register with the superintendent.

The regular work of the school will begin upon the following day, 'September 6. Teachers, 25 in number, have all been secured for the term and three janitors engaged. Parents will be doing pupils considerable injury if they do not start them to school en the first day, and regular attendance is absolutely necessary to obtain any real benefit from school work. If children arc permitted to remain away from school they are apt to form habits that will handicap them throughout life. Parents are invited to visit the schools and to co-operate with the instructors in order to obtain the very best results.

The school faculty and board of education will be glad to answer questions and explain matters to the best of their knowledge. Hereunder is enumerated the names and addresses of the instructors engaged: SuperintendentB. F. Princeton. Grades.

This afternoon, at the fair, the Princeton and Foley regulars will clash in what promises to be the real baseball classic of the year. Each team has three games to its credit and this game will decide which is the winner of the series. Foley will have their big Indian pitcher, Chase, with them and their complete lineup. Princeton will be there in their full war strength and the result should.be a classy exhibition of the national pastime. Just recently the Foley team played a 15-inning, 1 to 0 game, with St.

Cloud. On Friday Isle and Princeton will lock horns for the championship of Mille Lacs county. On Saturday Zimmerman and Foreston will go to the mat to settle an old grudge. On Sunday, September 4, Princeton closes the season at Foley. Community Scales Being Installed.
