State Aid for Rural Schools.

This year thu state aid for rura
schools amounts to S125, and will be
given those schools that meet the fol-
lowing requirements:
1. That the school must have been
maintained for the full period fol
eight months dnring the year.
2 Than teachers, from the beginD
ing of. and thru, the school year
shall have a first grade state
certificate, or one of higher rank.
3. That the district shall have suit
able building, outhouses, library,
and such apparatus as is necessary
for doing efficient work,
4. This department makes the
same requirements in respect to rural
schools as for semi-graded, regard
ing the school building and it's equip
ment, heating, ventilating, blackboard
set of supplementary readers and Web
ster's International Dictionary.
Books to the amount of at least SIS
must be added to the library yearly
The rules regarding outhouses will be
strictly enforced, and are the same as
for semi graded schools. Aid will
not be granted to rural schools in
which the average daily attendance
is less than IL.
Officers of schools which are not
receiving state aid and who wish to
make an effort to secure the same,
should make application to the
county superintendent of schools.
1t is useless to make application,
however, unless the school has
complied with all the requirements
as outlined above.

Death OF @. r. Simon son.

A telegram was received here
Wednesday that o. R. Simonson,
formerly of this place, but latterly OF
Duluth, had died.
Mr.. Simonson came to Morris In
the early part of 1901 and opened up
a confectionery store, which he run
for about six months. when he sold
out and went to Duluth. Nothing
further was heard from him until this
spring, when word was received by
Morris lodge, No. lO8.-K. of z, to
to which he belonged that he and his
family were very sick in Duluth.
Since he was here he has married,
ana he and bis wife had both suffered
long periods of sickness. Since that
time he recovered sufficiently to re-
sumo work for little while, but
about two weeks ago, he was again
taken sick with fatal results.
Much sympathy is extended to the
bereaved wife, since after all her
trials, she is now left destitute except
or the assistance of kind friends.

LECTURE COURSE.
Epworth League Committee is again
at Work on Attractions.

For several years past, the Epworth
League of the Methodist church has
furnished the people of Morris with
course of le lures and entertainments
which have not been excelled by any
town of this size in the state. The
lecturers whom they have brought
here have been mon of national fame,
and the entertainments have been OF
the high class which usually appear
only in large cities.
The course has usually been
announced to cover five numbers,
but The committee has uniformly had
more money than they needed, and
regarding themselves as the trustees
of the community, has spent the
balance in securing more entertain
ments aud in giving more than they
originally agreed to give.
MIR. Libby and Mrs. Cooley, who
have been so sctive in this work In
the past, have again taken the matter
up, and desire that all those interest
ed in the course communicate with
them, either as to the number OF
tickets which they will buy, or with
any suggestions they may have OF
attractions to be secured. Inc
committee have several trst-class
attractions in view, but cannot close
contracts until they are assured OF
the usual financial support.
Course tickets will be sold as here
tofore at the remarkably low price OF
81, and it is hoped that as many as
possible will Immediately confer with
the committee signifying their
support.
