Splendid High
School Lyce
um Program
Frazer-James Dance Company
Will Present High-Class
Entertainment
ADULTS ARE INVITED
Splendid Numbers Sponsored
By Sauk Centre Public
School
During the present school year
residents of the city and the pupils
of the Public School have been
privileged to attend several Lyceum
numbers, all of them providing
clean and high-class entertainment
at the small cost of 15c per adult
These programs have been spon
sored by the school and each of
them warranted much larger at
tendance than they received.
On Tuesday afternoon, January
21st, at three o’clock, another of
these splendid lyceum programs
will be given in the Junior High
Auditorium. This program is to be
presented by the Frazer-James
Dance Company, consisting of four
splendid artists, who will present
a varied and high-class entertain
ment of dancing and piano music
based on classic and modern music
that is remarkable for sheer beau
ty. This is the highest priced num
ber of the year, however, the ad
mission to adults will remain the
same, 15c.
These four versatile artists have
a repertoire of nearly one hundred
dances and have a working know
ledge of the technique of Grecian,
Ballet, Toe, Tap, Character and
Modern work, including the much
talked of Modern German dancing.
The personnel of the Frazer-
James Dance Company has re
mained the same for the past three
years and in that time the com
pany has made three coast to
coast trips, including forty-eight
concerts in Canada Return en
gagements are the rule and in
many cities as many as four con
certs have been given under the
same local management
Paul James, the featured dancer,
combines a subtle sense of panto
mime with an excellent dance tech
nique and is equally at home in the
classic, interpretative, or modern
schools of the dance.
Marguerite and Lois, the assist
ing dancers, lend a charm and
beauty to the program which ap
peals to both professional and lay
man.
Arthur Frazer, the pianist of the
group, is more than merely an ac
companist for the dancers. His
wide experience as a concert pian
ist and his appearances with sym
phony orchestras here and abroad
make him an ideal musical direc
tor, giving, as he does, authentic
interpretations of the music used
for the dance numbers.

Council To
Give Direct
City Relief
Available to Only Bonafide
Citizens of Sauk
Centre
WILL BE GREAT SAVING
List of Sixty-five Cases -Cut
To Twenty-Two
Eligibles
Sauk Centre’s City Council
has not signed up for Federal
relief for the year of 1936, ac
cording to announcement of
the chairman of the local re
lief committee, which is com
posed of the entire member
ship of the Council. Distribu
tion of relief will be handled
locally and will be given only
to the needy who are bonafide
residents of Sauk Centre.
During the past year the city
sent 33000 to the relief office
in St Cloud, from where relief
distribution for this city was
made. However, all funerals,
hospital care, operations, etc.,
had to be paid locally. The
Council feels that in this matter
they can under the present set
up save considerable money
for the city.
Only direct relief to needy
citizens will be paid from city
funds, and according to state
ment seventy-five percent of
the amount will be returned to
the city from county funds.
Those entitled to relief must be
bonafide citizens of Sauk Cen
tre, with no visible means of
support A list of sixty-five
names was given to the council
for relief, but this was cut to
22 cases, and it is possible that
further cuts will be made.
Blue Valley To
Make American
Cheese In City
Splendid Equipment Is Now
Being Installed—Mar
ket Assured
American Cheese is another pro
duct which will soon be manufac
tured in Sauk Centre, according to
the announcement of G. R. Eas
ton, manager of the local Blue Val
ley Creamery.
Equipment consisting of vats,
press, and various styles of moulds
is being installed at the Blue Val
ley for the manufacture of cheese.
This new equipment is costing the
company several thousands of dol
lars.
The manufacture of cheese is a
new industry for Sauk Centre and
in addition to creating more em
ployment will afford a very prof
itable market for milk in the Sauk
Centre community and for many
miles in the surrounding territory.
To manufacture cheese it will re
quire from 5,000 to 10,000 pounds
of milk per day. The Blue Valley
has been manufacturing cheese in
plants in other cities for some
time, and the demand for the pro
duct has grown to such propor
tions that local manufacture be
came a necessity. Hence, a ready
market for the quality product to
be manufactured locally is assured.

Annual Safety
Meeting Tuesday
All Interested In Public Safety Are
Invited To Attend—Mem
bership Fee 26c
Gordon Morse says that the Sauk
Centre Safety Council wishes that
all who believe the Council’s work
has been of value make it a point
to attenc the annual meeting next
Tuesday evening at 8:00 P. M., at
the Community Club. If you can
not attend, you can express your
appreciation by enrolling as a
member by paying the small sum
of twenty-five cents to Frank Bun
ker, Secretary. Your presence at
the meeting, however, is greatly
to be desired, especially if you have
any suggestions which might be of
help in planning the 1936 program,
if you are interested in safety pro
blems.
The Traffic Safety contest of the
Minnesota Public Safety Commit
tee is interesting. Figures for the
first ten months of 1935 are just
off the press. Sauk Centre is not
separately classified because re
cords are kept for cities of 5,000
population or more. Sauk Centre is
a part of Stearns County, however,
and Stearns ranks twelfth in the
33 counties of the State which
have 20,000 population or more.
Perhaps this is a good showing
for the fourth largest populated
county in the State, and still
Stearns shows an increase from 8
to 9 traffic deaths for this period,

Benefit Dance Provides
Neat Fund for Golfers
Announce At Niblick Club That
$156 Was Realized For
Support of Golf Links
Members of the Niblick Club, the
ladies organization complimentary
to the Country Club, met at the
home of Mrs, W. J. Bryan on Tues
day afternoon where they were en
tertained with Mrs. H. J. Wood
bridge as assisting hostess. Beside
the luncheon a business meeting
followed at which time it was
learned that the definite amount
that had been realized from the
benefit dance at the Home School
on January 2 was $156.
The Country Club supper dance
sponsored and directed by the la
dles organization was the social
high light of the winter, an enjoy
able affair with the music of Cec
Hurst and his band and the tasty
lunch served at intermission. The
amount derived from the benefit
will be applied toward the further
maintenance of the local Country
Club, which because of financial
difficulties faced closing. Just how
far this amount will go is ques
tionable, but it will help to main
tain the golf course as an integral
part of the community for some
time longer. The ladies wish to
thank those who responded so
well, and they themselves are to be
commended on the splendid affair.

Plan Red Cross
First Aid Stations
Personnel Will Be Trained—Public
Invited To Attend First
Aid Instruction
“36,000 deaths; 1,250,000 people
injured; 105,000 permanent crip
ples—the toll of the highways in
one year is the challenge to the
American Red Cross. This great
humanitarian organization cannot
prevent accidents, but it can, and
will, minimize the death rate by
placing at the disposal of the trav
eling public a national net-work of
first aid stations along the high
ways of the nation at points where
medical aid is not immediately
available,” said Mr. Betts, of the
National Red Cross, at a meeting
of the local chapter in St. Cloud
Wednesday noon.
The cost of equipping a first aid
station is $20.00. Maintenance costs
about SIO.OO per year. Not more
than 20 such stations will service
Stearns county. Within two weeks
First Aid classes will be started in
St. Cloud for the eastern end of
the county. Stations will be equip
ped at Luxemburg and at the
Junction of Nos. 23 and 52, west of
St. Cloud.
Following completion of classes in
St. Cloud instruction in First Aid
will be given in Sauk Centre and
stations will be opened, possibly, at
Padua and Elrosa. The program
will continue until the entire coun
ty is serviced.
First Aid instruction is also in
tended for the general public. This
phase of Red Cross First Aid is
designated as "Mobile First Aid.”
The plan contemplates the eventual
installing of First Aid kits in every
car.
A committee of three was ap
pointed to start the project: Sheriff
Art Mclntee for the county, Dr.
Lippert for eastern Steams and
M. J. Fleming for western Stearns.
H. S. Lost

Locals Have Not Hit Stride—
Independents Going
Great Guns
OSAKIS HERE FRIDAY
Speedy Game Monday Night
Enjoyed by Fair Crowd
Of Fans
Sauk Centre high school’s var
sity and second team quints nose
dived for their post-holiday open
ing at Alexandria last Friday even
ing when in a preliminary contest
the seconds lost 13 to 8. The main
event of the evening found the lo
cals short on the 26 to 19 score,
Alexandria employed a break
similar to our own, a slow break
that speeded when the opportunity
presented itself. The locals had lit
tle difficulty getting deep in to the
defense of the Alx lads, but thy
couldn’t sink a shot. Fouling on the
part of the locals was heavy, while
Alex turned up on the light end of
the fouling.
La Course opened the scoring as
he laid in a nice basket on a fast
break play. La Course succeeded
himself doubling with Urness to
mess up the local defense. The lo
cals peppered in several longs that
fell short, and Brandon went in
fast to cover and open local scor
ing. LaCourse scored again on a
one handed shot from the field and
the quarter ended 6 to 2 in favor
of Alexandria. In the opening of
the second quarter Arvig and
Brandon both playing deep on the
offensive were caught off balance
when Erickson intercepted a pass
and broke fast to go down to score.
EUden scored in the next few plays
and LaCourse chalked up his third.
Arvig and Keldahl counted a pair
for the locals. The boys pranced
off the floor at the half with Alex
still in the lead 13 to 7.
Eiden opened the second half
scoring and DeGree connected for
the locals after a long drouth. Ar
vig took the tip and tossed in an
other for the locals. Alexandria
counted twice more for the third
quarter which finished with them
ahead 20 to 11. The last quarter
goes by decision of points to the
locals. The locals captured four
goals while Alex copped six points.
DeGree went down the floor to
score, and Keldahl covers to score
off to side of court. Brandon
counted as he took the pass from
Keldahl just outside of the foul
lane. Dußois counted once, and Lar
Course, of Alex, counted with a
goal and several free shots. The
final score was 26 to 19.
