CHlLDREN'S DAY.

Children's day exercises were held by
the Sunday school of district 81, Rapi-
dan. on Sunday, June 18th.
This school house is quite historic
throughout the county, once being the
residence of an outlaw, but it will be
doubly memorable hereafter to those
who were so fortunate as to be presen
during the beautiful service held there
Sunday afternoon.
The room was handsomely decorated
with ferns and other of natures gifts
from the adjoining wood. But the
most praiseworthY work of decoration
was the elegant and appropriate de-
signs and notices on the blackboards
by the skillful hand of Mrs. Harris, the
Sunday school superintendent 1t
showed the effects of much skill and
patient labor.
The decorations. however. did not ex-
eel the program which was nicely ar
ranged and we'll rendered. The songs
and recitations were both entertaining
and instructive. The interest and &C.
tive part taken by the children and
young people of the neighborhood is
proof that their motto, 1--WE Love Our
Sunday School," is the expression of
their real mind, although the organiza-
ton has existed but six months.
The congregation gave evidence of
their appreciation of the exercises by a
donation of 1926 to the work of the S.
S. union.
Certainly Mrs. Harris and the school
are deserving of many congratulations
and much praise for their efforts, which
were perfect success.

FOR CYCLONE SUFFERERS.
MankatO Banks Take a Hand in the
Giving.

That Mankato has done nothing to-
ward the relief of the New Richmond
cyclone sufferers may be directly at
tributed to the fact that no one had
moved in the matter until Monday. AT
the meeting of the directors of the First
National and National Citizens banks
this morning, two-thirds of one hun.
dred dollars were subscribed by the d.
rectors of these institutions and it is
expected that the directors of the Man.
kato State bank will be equally as
liberal, in which event the sum will be
made an even hundred dollars and will
be Immediately forwarded to the proper
depository having the contributions in
charge.
Mankato citizens have always hereto
fore shown a spirit of librality toward
less fortunate cities, and in the terrible
calamity which just one week ago to-
night befel the people of New Rich
mond our people should respond to the
call for help. Besides the terrible and
irreparable loss of life hundreds of
families have lost every dollars worth
of property they ever possessed and are
left absolutely penniless. The terrible
suffering and anguish sustained by
these poor victims have been too
often and too graphically depicted
through the daily press to need repeti-
ton here, and every heart should be, as
it is, stirred to its very depth for the
awful condition surrounding them. The
generous contributions that are being
sent in by citizens of almost all of our
towns and villages show how deep the
sympathy is for the stricken community
and it is time that Mankato also did
something in substantial way 1t will
not do for a splendid city like this,
whose people have been spared the aw-
full ravages of cyclone, to fail to come
to the relief of the New Richmond PEG
pie. The individual gifts need not be
large, but they should be general.
In order that all may give their mite,
the Citizens, First National and State
banks have all agreed to accept such
contributions of money as the generous.
ly inclined may feel like giving, and ii
is hoped that the givers will be prompt
in depositing their contributions. Give
something, however small the sum.
Mankato should certainly be able to
contribute $500 in cause that appeals
so strongly to everyone for help.

Sentiment Seems to Favor the
Plan.
Some People Would Also Have the
District Sell School Supplies
at Cost.

From the comment heard on the
street, it seems likely that free text
books will carry at the July school cleo
ton. The principal argument used IN
favor of the plan is that the cost OF
school books at present is very great in
the case of a poor parent with several
children in the schools. The frequent
changes in books, making it often i'm
possible for the younger children to use
the books handed down by the older
ones, aggravate the case. The pur-
chase of paints and drawing material
has also caused grumbling on the part
of some parents. These things com.
bined will bring out large vote IN
favor of free text books
Those who were instrumental in caus-
ing the question to be submitted to
vote say that the expense to the district
will not be as great as feared. They
say there are nearly enough books in
the hands of the scholars to do for the
first year. They suggest that the
school board offer small sum for these
books, say five or ten cents each, or
about what the book stores pay for
them, and for $500 or $1,000 books for
every< scholar can be secured. Many
offer to donaae their old books. After
that, purchases could be made as need
ed, and the district could buy the books
a fourth or third cheaper than the
parents can, by dealing directly with
the publishing houses. Scholars would
be required to take good care of their
books and to pay for injury done to
books.
Some advocate having the district
purchase all supplies, such as pencils,
paper, ETC., and selling to pupils at cost.
By getting these articles at wholesale
rates there would be considerable saw
ing to the scholars.
The local dealers in books and school
supplies would be losers if the school
district goes into the business of fur
nishing free text books and selling
school supplies at cost.
