APPROPRIATION
IS INSUFFICIENT
Denison Ought to Have Had at Least
$4,000 Instead Of $4,000 tor
New Federal Building.
, MUST ACCEPT THE SITUATION
Too Late Now to Secure Additional
Money As Building Will Soon
Be in Course Of Construction

The new postoffice building will
soon be under way. The only regret
is that a larger appropriation was not
secured for the building in Denison.
One of our citizens addressed letter
to the supervising architect lately,
complaining that apparently the gov
eminent was discriminating against
Denison in accepting bid which pro-
vides for cheap material for the in
terror finish. The architect, in reply,
claims that the amount of the appro-
priation has been extended as far as
it can go in furnishing good build
ing and proper finishing for the In
terror. We are of the opinion that
when the building is, constructed it
will not prove monument to the con-
gressmen who secured the authorize.
ton for it. We should have at least
$4,000 instead of $4,000, large per
cent of which is devoted to improve
ments on the lot, etc. 1t is now too
late to secure an additional amount
and the best thing to do is to accept
the situation as gracefully as possible.

SCHOOL TEACHER
CLAIMED BY DEATH
Miss Margaret Brown, Daughter Of
Mrs. m. Brown, Called by Death
Angel on Monday Morning
A COMPLICATION OF DISEASES
Universal Sorrow Expressed, Hun
dreds of Friends Attend Funera!
Held This Morning.

On Monday morning, April ID, 1913
Margaret Brown, aged twenty years
passed away at the home of her moth
err, Mrs. M. Brown, three miles ives
of Denison.
Margaret was young lady of more
than ordinary attainments. The
greater part of her life was spent pre-
pairing to become one of the most eff
ficient teachers in the county. This
avocation she was privileged to enjoy
but a few short years. IE September
she began teaching in No. 7, Denisor
township, where few years before
she had been a faithful, conscientious
and much loved pupil. In filling this
position she realized one of her high
est ambitions, but on account of i'll
health she was forced to resign after
six weeks of faithful service
Few deaths in this vicinity have
caused such universal sorrow as the
one above chronicled. Her condition
was eagerly asked for each day. She
will be sadly missed by her large cir
Gle of friends, but words cannot eX
press the grief that is felt by her low
ing mother and devoted sisters and
brothers, who have faithfully watched
and waited upon her. She had com.
plication of diseases and for several
months bore her suffering with the
greatest patience and christian forti-
tude. The deceased leaves mother,
two brothers, four sisters and an aged
grandfather to mourn the sweet and
gentle character whom God saw fit
to call to enjoy her vocation.
TIE funeral services were held on
Wednesday morning at St. Rose of
Lima church at 10 o'clock, Rev. Faith
err Farrelly officiating. The Young
Ladies' Sodality of which she was a
member, attended in a body. The
casket was covered with beautiful
lowers. The pail bearers were: Frank
Houlihan, Eugene Owens, John Bau-
man, Maurice Fitzpatrick, Maurice
Brosnahan and Robert Brosnahan. In
terment was made in the Catholic
cemetery beside her father, who de-
parted this life in 1903

by the storm which swept over this

that the photo was that of his sister

new HIGHWAY
FOR ARI0N
Board of Supervisors Decide on New
Public Highway Leading Into
Aron From the West.
ROAD LAW CAUSES MUCH WORRY
Recently Enacted Road Law Has the
Board Guessing As to Best
Method Of Distribution.

Members of the board of supervis-
ors were in Arion last Friday morning
going over the ground for the pro-
posed new highway leading into Arion
from the west. The board has decided
to change the road from the Thomas
Rae farm, west of Arion, so that it
will follow the Milwaukee railroad
right of way instead of the one which
is now used. This will do away with
the hilly road and the board will be
saved the expense of an 80-foot bridge
over the ravine. Chairman Carey in
formed a Review reporter that salts
factory arrangements have been made
with Mr.. Rae, whose land will be
used, for the new highway and that
the new roads will be built as soon as
the county surveyor can plat it out.
The board of supervisors adjourned
last Saturday after holding their
April session, but will meet again on
Friday of this week to dispose of some
business that was held over. The new
road laws recently passed are causing
the board no small amount of worry
and concern and they are consider
ably up in the air as to which roads
will receive attention this year under
the new law. According to the law
recently passed the board is required
to use the funds from the one mill
road tax and the apportionment from
the. state automobile tax for Is per
cent of the county highways during
the year and the roads to first receive
attention are the county roads and
connecting highways between trading
points. Crawford county has some
thing like 1900 miles of roads and Is
per cent would be $50 miles that
would have to have attention. There
are fourteen trading points that would
have to be connected up according to
the new law and this would also in
crease the number of miles that would
have to be worked The board is try
ing to solve the problem of apportion-
ing the $4,000 available for road work
over the entire county, connecting all
the towns and putting the roads in
first class condition.

Building to Be Rushed.

Architect Cox informed the men,
bers of the opera house company that
he would have the complete plans
and specifications completed within
the next three weeks, ready for &C.
ceptance, and that it would be possible
to let the contract for the erection
so that the building operations would
be under way by the first of June. He
was of the opinion that it would not
take more than six months to com
plete the structure ready for Occu-
pancy and that the building would be
completed not later than December
LIST. We trust that the contract will
be let to some Crawford county con-
tractor, for it would be too bad to let
some foreign concern step in and get
this job.
$4,000 Already Subscribed.
Already $4,000 in stock has been
sold in the new opera house company,
but the prominent Germans back of
this improvement are anxious that all
who are able to take few shares do
SO in the near future. This is not
only a Denison project for some of our
wealthy farmers of the county have
taken thousands of dollars in stock
and are we'll aware of the fact that it
will prove to be good investment.
Enough stock has been sold to go
ahead with the building, but it is
hoped that enough will be sold so
that it will not be necessary to carry
large loan on the building and prop
erty. The committee will solicit this
week and next to dispose of the re-
make their report at the next meeting
all the stock will have been taken up.
There should be no reason why it
should not be a paying investment for
with the revenue from the two store
rooms and the five office rooms on the
second floor, together with the re-
ceiDts of the opera house for plays
and moving picture shows, large and
steady income is insured. The Ger
mania Verein paid large dividends
from the old opera house and with a
new and up-tO-date structure the rev.
enue should be three-fold or more.
Credit for this great Improvement
is due to the unceasing efforts of our
German citizens who are looking for
ward to the upbuilding and welfare
of our city. Let us all pull together
and do everything possible to make it
a success.
