Minnesota's first School Bell.

The Pioneer Press Of Feb. 18th in
its column of First Things in St.
Paul." gives a description of a
school bell now in the possession of
the Minnesota Historical Society
which claims the honor of being the
first school bell used in this state.
The bell was originally a steamboat
bell and it was noticed when the
boat Ariel" made the landing at
Saltwater the bell was most success
full in calling the pupils of the vii
lage school to the riverside. The
brilliant minds of the school board
conceived the idea that if the bell
could only be made to call the pu-
pills to school with half the success it
had in calling them to the river it
would be worth its weight in gold.
The bell was purchased in 1848 and
used for rs years. This all sounds
very ancient but St. Peter boasts of
bell with a record that dates a
year earlier and so claims the honor.
When Rev. John F. Alton was a
student at Lane seminary in Ohio
the call came for volunteers in the
mission fields of Minnesota.
The young minister with two
others responded to the call and he
was sent to work with DIR. William
son in the Dakota mission to work
in Wacouta's village. When buying
his supplies for the mission school
Mr.. Alton bought the bell now in
possession of the family in this city,
and it was used by him in the years
1847-48 40 to call the Indian child
rem to the mission school. In the
year 1849 Mr.. Alton was moved to
Kasposia, now South St. Paul, and
the bell was used to call the child
rem of Little Crows village to school
until 1853 when the last of Little
Crows band was moved to Yellow
Medicine reservation. Rev. Alton
preempted the land where the city
of Red Wing now stands, butsleft
the same and came to Nicollet county
where he bought a farm in Lake
Prairie. The bell above mentioned
was used for years by both Mr.. and
Mrs. Alton in their school taught on
the home farm. The bell is greatly
priced by the family and they eX-
pect to place it among the relics OF
the Sibley house museum.

Lamberton Star: Three engines
of faster type and later patterns
have been added to this division of
the North Western and this is one
OF the reasons why the trains are on
time these days. They have seven
foot drivers, and the engineers say
they will go any speed up to 80 miles
per hour.
Say, but this item from the Clara
City Herald is good one andl'tick-
eIed US all: I'm an adjoining town,
while ladies card club was" playing
for $500 book as prize the sons
OF these same ladies. small boys,
were arrested in a haymow while
playing for a so cent prize, They
had organized a club like their
mothers. The mothers cried and
said, what a terrible place this
town is to raise boys anyhow
Served them right. They might
have known the difference between
haymow and parlor, and $500
and so cent prize.

Echo Enterprise: August Matz

urday. August is credited with hav-
ing a bad attack of automobiles.
This disease is never fatal but can
only be cured by purchasing the
latest model of a car.
Sanborn Sentinel: Mr.. and Mrs.
P. Dinneen and Mrs. w. S. South
wick departed Tuesday afternoon
for Savage. Montana, where the
Dinneens will make their future
home. Mr.. and Mrs. Dinneen have
been residents of Sanborn for many
years but their advanced age was
the cause of their removal from our
midst. They take with them the
good wishes of their Sanborn friends.
Vesta Censor: Miss Annie Chris
topherson and Mr.. Peter Thompson
were married at the home of the
brides parents in Underwood town
ship last Wednesday. Feb. %. Mr..

Window had a special election last
week to decide the question of whe-

present school house, since the quar-
ters were getting to be very
cramped. The bonds carried. AS
Window has been a dry town for
several years, the town has probably
saved enough on the drink bill to af-
ford the cost of school extensions.

A Gift With A Thought In It.

What other Christmas pres ent costs so little and means so much as subscription to The Youths Companion -52 weeks for $1.75? It is a gift which ben efts not only the one member who receives it, but every mem Der of the same household.
 With many Christmas pres ents the sense of novelty wears off by the weeks end, but The Youths Companion is as new and sought after the fifty-sec- ond week of the year as the first. It is elastic in it's adaptability, too: for it does not matter whether the present is for a boy or a girl, young married people, sedate couples, grandparents there never was one yet who did not set store by The Youth s Companion. You cannot make mistake if you give The Con1- panion-and it is only $1.75 2 year now. On January 1,19l2. the price will be advanced to $2.00.
