But the devotees of Terpsichore in Wahkon are certainly patriotic, for according to the Enterprise they donated the en tire net receipts of a dance in that vil lage, $31.20, to the mess fund for Wahkon soldier boys. gCHB FJMNCETON UNION: THUftSDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1917 I**** Philip Westling of St. Mary's, Wash., is home to bid his relatives good bye. He has been drafted for the army and will leave here this week to go into training camp. Martin Westling, a brother of Philip, is a member of our own company G. An drew Westling, their father, a sub stantial Wyanett farmer, is proud of his boys, and well he may be. A letter received by W. C. Doane from Gilbert Maggart says the boys arrived at Fort Dodge without any mishap whatever, and that their cap tain at the Fort is a splendid gentle man. "Gib" says that the Mille Lacs boys are with the Third battery. He expects that they will be transferred to Deming, N. M., within a few weeks, and sends regards to all his friends. Last year several of the village streets were graveled and put in ex cellent condition and they have stood up remarkably well. But a little re pair work on those streets is neces sary and it can be done now at slight expense, and now is the time to do it before freezing weather sets in. All that is necessary is a few loads of gravel to fill up the depressions and the judicious use of alight grader in places. Spencer Brook farmers assure us that higher prices are being ^paid at Zimmerman for potatoes and grain than are being paid at Princeton. One farmer says he made $7.50 on one load^ of rye he hauledt to Zimmerman over wh^it he would have received for it here. Zimmerman^ of course, is ten miles riearer to*1 Minneapolis than Princeton is, but the difference in, freight, if any, certainly would not amount to $7.50 on one wagon load of rye. Farmers tell us that the Indians who are loafing around town could all be, employed at good pay if they so de sired. One farmer says that he of fered a couple of these fellows $3.50 a day and board to work in his potato fields and the only answer he could get from them was a shake of the head and a grunt. It would be a good scheme to chase all the Mille Lacs county Chippewas onto the White Earth reservation, where they rightly belong. 7&\ r^\.

Jack Drug Co. 40-ltc Miss Mildred Rutherford went to Minneapolis on Monday to attend a bridge party upon the following day in honor of herself and Miss Margaret Manzel, given by^Miss Florence Da vies at 2697 Lake of the Isles Boule vard. Misses Rutherford and Manzel will be October brides'! Alfred Christiansen of Pine River has again accepted his former posi tion in N. M. Nelson's blacksmith shop, where he was employed for about four years. He is a man whom everybody is glad to see back, and he will be pleased to have his old-time friends call and renew acquaintance. 40-ltc Dr. Peatfield is in St. Paul this week attending the Congregational state conference, which is being held at Olivet church. On Wednesday after noon Rev. Peatfield addressed the con ference on "Recruiting Our Young People for Life's Tasks." Mrs. Fred Keith was elected as a delegate from the local church. Dr. George Dunn of Johns Hopkins hospital, Baltimore, has received or ders to held himself in readiness for transportation to the European battle fields, but the date of his sailing has necessarily not been divulged. A con tingent of expert surgeons, of which George is one, has been assembled to cross to the French military hospitals. The Sunday school convention for the second district of Mille Lacs county will be held in the Free Mission church at Bock on Sunday next. There will be two sessions, at 2:30 and 7:30 p. m. The various phases of Sunday school work will be presented by pas tors and workers and musical numbers be given at each session. You will miss a great treat if you'fa^l to at tend. Consumers will not begrudge pro ducers an amply fair profit on what potatoes they raise, remarks the Min neapolis Tribune. All they ask is that middlemen shall not be permitted to do any unpatriotic price-gouging as the tuber makes its way from field and garden to the kitchen. And that is not asking too much. Middlemen should be satisfied witha reasonable profit. Clara should change the name of her dog, which at this time is burdened with a heavy handicap. He is known as "Kaiser" but his characteristics no more resemble those of his namesake than does the disposition of a dotfe that of a hyena, for "Kaiser" is a good natured friendly old fellow. He is alsa an intelligent dog, and since the war started has given manifestations of* being ashamed when his name is uttered. Do the dog a kindness, Cjara, by changing his name. What is the use^of circulating lying stories, especially when the lies cause distress arid sorrow to the families of our soldier boys? Last week the liars had it that two or three of the boys had died at Deming. There was no foundation or excuse for the canard. Jule's letter in this week's issue goes to prove that the boys are healthy and happy. It seems to be apart of the pacifist-anarchistic program to start and circulate all kinds of stories that will cause unrest and trouble among the families and friends of the soldier boys. As Mr. Tice is slowly recovering from a serious accident in which he was run over by an automobile and in which he was badly bruised and re-* ceived a fractured rib, we take this opportunity of thanking the many kind friends who assisted him in his^hard struggle.B.
