The Intense heat Of Sunday last be-
tokened the coming Of storm, which
came In furious violence to the dwell
o5s 1t Lake Gervais, near st. Paul,
causing the destruction of much rrop-
erty, and the loss Of many valuable
lives. The same storm overturned IN

causing. the loss of between
one and two hundred lives. There is
great mourning in the land on account
OF this, the most serious calamity
Minnesota has ever known. Had the
Intense heat.eontinued very long. there
must have occurred great mortality,
though 1t would have come in form
not 30 appalling; nor confined to so

AN IMPORTANT PROJECT.

AN IMPORTANT PROJECT.
We mentioned, q week or two ago,
that Mr. Chess Birch, an Evangelist
who has been for years engaged in
holding Gospel MeetinRs'' in various
psrts OF the country. is spending his
summer vacation in Worthington.
While thus recreating he has observed
the facilities and advantages this place
presents as an available point for
"A Sumner Resort for Christian
Workers" q project which he and 9th
ers have at heart. The object is to find
some congenial community, with all
needed accessories of climate, scenery,
ETC., in which to establish a resort
where those lay and clerical workers
may spend a quiet vacation season,
aud at the same time hear lectures and
pursue studies along the line of their
vocation. Lake Okabena, with its
broad expanse of pure, limpid water;
its health inspiring hretzes; its shores
beskirted with shady groves; with ex-
cellent roads for riding and driving;
with facilities for sailing, rowing. fish.
ing, etc., with hospitable community
in sympathy with its laudable objects
and methods, all combine to make this
An eligible and desirable location for
such an institution. Mr.. Birch is now
procuring estimates rs to the cost of
an Auditorium capable of seating 500
persons. Around this there may be
constructed such other conveniences
rs may be required, as the institution
may develop and progress. Here Sun
day School and other Educational In
stlt"t:ons may conveniently assemble.
Here may come Teachers, and those
preparing to teach in both secular and
religious schools, lay evangelists. and
other st"dious persons, to be Instruct
ed by some Of the more prominent
teachers and lecturers Of the country,
In this enterprise, if he shall deter
mine to so forward with it, Mr.. Birch
will be furnished with means from
abroad. Hence he asks no financial
aid from our people. But lie would be-
pleased to have the moral support and
cordial co operation of all our citizens.
We are sure this will not he withheld.
This resort would be open in July and
August of each year, or portions Of
those months, and would he benefit
to the community, intellectually, NOR
ally and financially. Mr.. Birch has la
bored In 80 Of the States md some of
the British provinces, aud prominent
clergymen whom lie has assisted tests
" to his efficiency and acceptability
We may therefore credit him with the
aDllity and energy necessary to make
the undertaking y success.

TO SCHOOL. OFFICERS AND
PARENTS.

PARENTS.
We are confronted with certain facts
in relation to country schools, which
deserve serious consideration and in
vestigation, at the "Annual School
Meetings" which will be held Oh Sat-
urday the 10th inst.
One is the loss, financially, that
many districts sustain by reason of the
pupils falling short of the forty days.
attendance required to entitle them to
apportioument. Would it not be good
plan to take the school register to the
school meeting, read the names Of the
pupils enrolled during the year, with
the number Of days attendance of
each, then ascertain the number of
school age in the district, who are not
enrolled at all, and endeavor to form
some plan of action that will cause q
better attendance In future.
Some of you will be surprised to
learn the amount of money you are
losing annually.
And wish to again call your atten-
tion to the necessity of supplying your
schools each with a library. We are
contributing our share to the library
fund of $4,000, aud are not receiving
q 1.-THE of the benefit from it that We
ought.
Some counties In the State have from
seventy-five to one hundred district
school libraries. The State Superin.
tendent requests that you take some
action in the matter at the coming an.
nual meeting.
Each school district having a library
will be entitled to copy of the Histo-
~ of Minnesota Troops in the Civil
aud Indian Wars, q work containing q
narrative of each organization, and =
roster of all the troops.
A welt cared for library will, with
out doubt, receive other valuable COZ
tributions.

PHENOMENAL YIELDS.

The most phenomenal yield Of corn
ever produced in America has been
awarded the prize Of $500 offered by
the American Agricultural for the
largest crop of shelled corn raised on
an acre of ground. The crop was
within fraction of 255 bushels green
weight, which shrunk to 239 bushels
when kiln dried. The South Carolina
state board of agriculture doubled the
prize, making the award $1,000 in all.
q. j. Crake of Marlboro county, 8. c.,
was the man who grew this wonderful
crop. The $500 awarded for the larg-
eat yield of wheat last year goes to
Henry F. Burton of Salt Lake City,
Utah, for yield Of eighty bushels on
one acre.

Tariff reform or free trade is the
panacea offered for all the ills Of life
by the democrats and every form OF
opposition to the republican party,
says the Independence Tribune. Here
is the feast they would invite You to.
In q speech In congress Henry Clay
said, referring 10 the "rcforin" period
Of 1877 to 1924:
Property of every description was
parted with at sacrifices that were as
tonishing.
In Muskingum county, Ohio, at a
sale by the sheriff, one four-horse
wagon was sold for $3.50.
Ten hogs sold at 81 cents each.
Two cows sold at 81 each.
Two horses, worth from $50 to SIS
each, at 80 each.
On February II, 1882, in the U. S.
senate Senator Ewing said Of these
same democratic reform times:
Every part of the world was
searched by our merchants and all
combined did not furnish q market
for our surplus productions. Every
farmer in Ohio long felt the pressure
consequent upon this state Of things.
Year after year their stacks of wheat
stood unthreshed, scarcely worth the
manual labor of separating the grain
from the straw. Sc low was 1t re-
duced in comparison with manufac.
tured articles that 1 have known forty
bushels of wheat given for one pair
of boots. And this was the state TO
which the whole country was reduced
in 1922, 1923 and 1924. The low state
TO which our farming interest was re-
duccd, the low price to which our fine
lands and their products had sunk
produced uuexampled pecuniary dis
treSS.

This upon the statement of a personal
friend. He took the Ohio delegation
TO The St. Louis democratic convention
in special cars at his own expense, say
$4,000. For five years he has been
actively contributing to the expenses
OF Ohio. campaigns. He paid the

TWENTY-FIVE newspapers. Because Of
this liberal expenditure the democrats
