Herman I. Hall Dead.

Yesterday evening the sad
news was sent from Aberdeen
that Mr.. Herman T. Hall had
died at 900 o'clock in the morn
ing at a hospital there. The body
was returned this morning, to be
buried at Lennon tomorrow,
Saturday afternoon. The funeral
services will take place at the
Odd Fellows hall in the afternoon
at 200 o'clock, and will be in
charge of the local lodge of Odd
Fellows.
A little over a week ago, Mr..
Hall, ailing for some time, had
suddenly collapsed, while on the
street at Lennon. The serious
ness of his condition was then
recognized, and he was taken to
Aberdeen, to be operated upon
for kidney complications and
tumors. But his malady was too
far advanced and the end came
at 900 o'clock Thursday FORE

Tenn Hall, by which name he
was known and highly respected
among his friends and neighbors
began settlement of a farm near
Cedar. northeast Of Lennon. in
the vicinity Of the knoll known
as Robbers Butte, early in 1907.
An experienced farmer, it was
his delight to labor diligently in
the development of his acres,
with the result that his place has
at all times been known as one of
the most attractive and product
i've in the vicinity. Endowed
with pleasant and genial nature,
his personality ever cast about
him an influence for happiness
and congeniality. The benedict
ion of his smiling face will be
sadly missed by the many who
learned to know him as friend.
Herman T. Hall was born near
ly SIS years ago at Troupsburg,
N. Y, He came into these parts
from Worthing. S. D. He is
survived by his wife, who has
the heartfelt condolences Of
many in her bereavement.

School House heatinQ.

Inere mas been passed some
criticism on the heating Of the
Lennon public school building,
and the matter was aired some
what at the meeting of the
commercial club last Monday
evening. 1t was stated that the
school house is so cold that there
is danger of having to suspend
school. The facts appear to be
as follows; When the cold weather
set in, the building, being new
and provision for cold weather not
having been made, the north and
northwest rooms became chilled
whenever a cold wind prevailed.
Storm windows has not yet been
provided, butthese were promptly
supplied and helped materially to
heat the rooms properly. Then
too it was found that the rooms
exposed to the cold wind had no
more radiation than the south
rooms, although they were con-
tinually put to a much greater
strain in heating the north rooms,
than were those in the south
rooms. Radiators were changed to
meet the demand, and several new
ones installed, so that the building
was comfortable in all it's parts;
even under extreme tests. The
building is heated by the Lem
mon Electric Light and Power
Co., and the members of this
concern have worked steadily to
make the arrangement Of rad
iators comply with the demands
which the extremes of weather
make on the system.
The writer, while serving on
the school board at Fargo, had
occasion repeatedly to observe
the difficulties met in heating
school buildings. In the city of
Fargo there are several school
buildings. In the city of Fargo
there are several school houses
in which in spite of special effort
the temperture cannot be brought
up to normal on exceptionally
stormy days, and it happens at one
time or another every winter that
one or more classes, or even
schools, must de dismissed for
this reason. We learn that
similar conditions prevail at
Aberdeen. What with new con-
ditions, a school building every
effort is being made to come up
to the requirements, and the
changes and improvements now
being made are bearing good
results.
