There were very pretty exercises
at the school house in district No.
10, Swedes Forest, June 29th, when
Otto Flom, the teacher, presented
the class to Supt. Race, and asked
that he present the diplomas to
Matte Sandager, Carl Knutson and
Jacob Bredvold, the trio who had
secured all the necessary state high
school certificates in the branches to
allow the diplomas. Mr.. Race told
the people Of Swedes Forest that
they might feel justly proud that
the township of Swedes Forest had
graduated more pupils from the
grammar course, and sent to the
normal school at Mankato and to
the "U" of Minneapolis than any
other township in the county. There
were present at these exercises sew
eral graduates of the state normal
school of Mankato, who were alumni
of the Swedes Forest schools of
districts Nos. 10 and So. Mr.. C.
Knutson, clerk of No. 10, gave, in
short talk, some healthy common
sense on the value Of a good school.
The orations Of the graduates were
sensible topics within the grasp of
the speakers.
