A meeting that was of much interest
to the medical profession was the joint

held at Morris last Wednesday. The
Willmar physicians in attendance
were Drs. c. j. hnson and Ha'o old
Frost, the former being down on the
program for paper on 1.-The Medical
Profession of Minnesota" After the
business session an elaborate spread
was given q. the La Grande Hotel
and the medical men who participated
proved themselves adep.s at disse citing
the good things placed before them.
This city will be honored with the
next meeting of the Crow River Valley
Medical Society. of which nearly all
the Willmar physicians are members
and who will be the hosts at the com
ing gathering. AS the meetings are
held bi monthly the Willmar meeting
will be on Wednesday, June 8. The
June meeting of the West Central
Minnesota Medical Society will be

Rev. Johnson preached to a full

Several from Lake Elizabeth were
present and even Bro. "Pen."
1t is rumored that a Leap Year

yet learned the date. Will be given
later.
DR.. Archibald of Atwater was called
out to Alfred Anderson's last Sunday,
as their little daughter Irene was sick.
At this writing she is considerable
better.
Miss Tilda Hedberg went to Will
mar last Friday, returning on Satur-
day accompanied by her sister Emma
who has been staying at Willmar this
winter learning the trade as dress
maker.
Next week, on Wednesday and
Thursday, April - and %, some good

Sw. Lutheran church at Atwater, as
the ministers of the Pacific District

present. Services will be held both
during the day and evening.
Some of our young folks took in the
entertainment given by the Atwater
High School at the town hall Friday
evening and they report ti:st-class
entertainment. This shows that knowl-

A meeting was held last Saturday in
school district No. So, regarding the
moving of the schoolhouse to a more
central location. As no agreement
concerning this could be reached, it
was decided to have two schoolhouses
build q new one on Edward Han

arrival of some of the members, the
first session did not open until after
supper, when the meeting was held at
the offices of Dr.. 8ulburd. Several
papers of interest to the craft were
read and discussed, but the complete
program was not carried out owing to
the fact that the session was neces-
sarily held later in the day than had
been intended. AS consequence some
excellent papers which had been pre-
pared for the occasion could not be
read.
Following the business session above
alluded to the hosts and their guests
repaired to the La Grande hotel,
where very elaborate banquet was
spread. There we're about fifteen ply
sicians present, members and other
professions who had been invited to
participate, swelling the number to
about twenty. Eve At this place the
doctors demonstrated that they are a
very jovial and pleasant lot of men
In the numerous speeches which follow
ed the refreshments, the doctors proved
themselves to be ready with their wit
and humor, and with little assistance
from those outside the profession who
were present, toe evening was passed
very pleasantly until train time, when
most of them took their departure.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Teachers meeting will be held in the
High school room next Friday and
Saturday.
We understand that the Juniors will
give q reception to the Seniors in the

for.

will remain with US another year, with
the exception OF Prot. Heath who has

gridiron.
We understand five of our students
will 60 to- Atwater next Friday after
noon, where an oratorical contest will
be held for q silver medal. tits hoped
they will make a good showing to our
eastern neighbors, and give the school
cause to feel proud of them when they
return.
We see in the Journal that the de.
bates in the league closed last Friday
in the finals between Fergus Falls and
the St. Paul Central High. The Jour
nal says it was one of the best debates
held in thel league this year. St. Pau
came out victorious, however, by
70 of two to one. Being that the
Fergus Falls boys are made up o.
Juniors they will make q very strong
team next year In the league. Next
years question will be upon some
phase of the Eastern conditions.
Last Friday the I'D division of th'
literary societies gave an interesting
program. Some Of the main features

Quite a few attended the meeting held
in Dist. So Sunday evening, by Rev.

state of Oregon.
The latter part of last week r. A.

Immediately rebuild a new dwelling

Last Wednesday,, at the home of
Andrew Westlund, occurred the mar
rage of his daughter, Miss Carrie
Westlund, and Peter Wicklund OF
Fahlun. Only the nearest relatives
were present.
In spite of seeding and muddy roads
one of our young gentlemen took a
drive down to Lake Elizabeth last Fri
day. Later both gentleman and lady
took III the entertainment given at At
water Friday evening, by the students
of the High School.
A Leap Year basket social will be
given at the schoolhouse in Dist. SO
on Saturday evening, April 30. Boys
for change are asked to bring bas-
kets with lunch for two and the girls,
pocket books with lots of cash. All
are cordially invited to attend.
The reason that Kalle has not
showed up for some time has been lack
of news, but as the last TRIBUNE
reached US, we saw that new cor
respondent, "Crank' could scratch
up some news so Kalle thought he'd
do likewise. Now, "Crank,' this does
not mean that you shall withdraw for
by your items we can plainly see that
you are far more capable of being a
correspondent.
