DR.. Hoag is Pleased
Director of School Hygiene Says Red
wood Falls Has Very Few Defec-
tive Pupils

Dr. Ernest B. Hoag, Special Direc-
tor of School Hygiene for the Mime
sofa State Board of Health, visited the
local schools last Tuesday and inspect
ed the pupils of the 3rd and 4th grades
in the presence of the, teachers. He
reported that there seemed to be fewer
defective children in our schools than
in most of the schools which he had
visited and commended our schools
very highly for it's health inspection
work. DR.. Hoag stated that as far as
he knew only two other schools in the
state had done as much work in the
direction of improving the health of
the school children as the Redwood
Falls schools and urged that as the
next step school nurse be employed.
In the evening DR.. Hoag gave a very
interesting address to a gathering of
parents and teachers at the High
School building.

Juniors Entertain
Faculty and Seniors
Reception and Banquet Last Friday
Evening Is Most Enjoyable Event
In School Year

The festivities attendant upon the
1913 commencement of the Redwood
Falls High School began very plea
sanity last Friday evening. The Jun
Tors gave the Faculty and Seniors re-
ception at the National Guard Armory
followed by a banquet served in the
dining room of the K. P Hall.
The program given at the reception
was well planned and splendidly given.
1t opened with music by the Metropoli-
tan orchestra, which was followed by
a clever reading by Miss Irma Schmahl.
Then came the "Belles of Canterbury"
"playlet" by eleven Junior girls who
proved themselves born actresses,
singly and collectively.
The fourth number was piano solo
by Miss Gertrude Alberts, followed by
a spirited debate on "Wo1nan's Suf-
frage." The question was debated by
Harold Kumm, Wallace Stewart,
Charles Alexander, Allen Fraser, Ar
thur Hassenstab, and Gaylord Howe
with Earl King as chairman. The
question, as viewed by these superior
masculine minds, took on strange
and wonderful appearance. Mrs. Pank-
hurst would have abandoned the cause
and "fell to eating" had she been
present. The audience was somewhat
revived, however by violin solo by
Gaylord Howe and song by the Jun
iors, which completed the program.
/ From the armory the company, a
bout one hundred, in all, went to the
K. P. hall where they were Toasted at
a four course banquet served by the
mothers and sisters of the Junior mem
bers. The supper consisted of fruit
cocktail; cream chicken patties, olives
jelly, bread and butter sandwiches
salad, cheese straws; ice cream, cake
minis and coffee. All this was just a:
good as it sounds and daintily served
The decorations were ferns and jon
quils.
Allen Fraser, president of the Junior
class, acted as POSTMASTER. Toast
were made by Supt. Street, Prof. Viii
liams, Miss Sanborn, Rose Arney, How
ard Mason, Annie Allen, Rodne.
Wells, Esther Tradewell and Ralpl
Stegner 1t is impossible, because o
limited space to quote the many goo
: things said, but they were well wort
hearing.

Redwood Falls Pioneer Passed Away
at Daughters Home in
Los Angeles

S. ]. F. Ruter, one of the pioneers
of Redwood Falls, died at Los Angeles,
Cal, last Wednesday, April %.
Mr.. Ruter came here in 1868 and in
partnership with Mr.. Werden, built
the mill now owned by A. C. Burmeist-
er. He also built the house now occu-
pied by Mr.. and Mrs. Turrell, which
he lived in until he removed to st.

He lived in St. Paul until eight or
nine years ago, when he moved to Los
Angeles where he lived until his death.
Mrs. Ruter died many years ago, and
so far as The Gazette is able to learn,
Mr.. Ruter is survived by daughter in
Los Angeles and the son who formerly

FARMERS MATINEE A SUCCESS
Time of Program Changed To Three
O'clock To Suit Convenience of
Guests

The Farmers Matinee given Satur-
day at The Dream was very success
full considering that this was the first
of the season, and that it was neces-
sarily given at such an early hour IN
the afternoon. Between seventy-fve
and eighty people were present and
apparently enjoyed the program very
much.
Mrs. Huntsberry is arranging a
small room in the rear of the hall, as a
restroom for mothers and their small
children. She will place rockers and
other rest conveniences in this room
and put it at the disposal of the moth
eFs visiting The Dream.
The time of the program will I'M
doubtedly be made later in the after
noon probably from 8 to o'clock be-
fore next Saturday which win not only
be more convenient for those coming
from a, distance but also enable the
showing of 5000 #. instead of 1000 #
as the reels reach here now at about !
J o'clock.

Good Roads Father
Talks on Hobbies
Geo. w. Allyn Says Success Depends
on Crawling and Good
System
DRAG DEMONSTRATION TO-DAY
viii Tell Club Tonight How Redwood
County May Have Smooth
Tracks

Geo. w. Allyn of Madison Lake who
speaks on "Good Roads" before the
Automobile Club and it's guests to-
night, called at The Gazette office this
morning, and told some interesting
facts about road building. Mr.. Allyn
proved, in even a short talk, that he
is master of his subject and takes the
science Of roadology very seriously.
Mr.. Allyn said: "Gravelling is my
hobby and unless / am asked to speak
on some particular phase tonight I
shall probably speak largely on that,
although also wish to talk on good
roads in connection with good farm
ing and farm conditions"
He made it very evident that he be-
lieves in travelling the whole year
round and in between seasons. We
are convinced that he is positive that
horses have only one mission; that is
to haul gravel to make good roads for
automobile travel.
Mr.. Allyn might have confessed to
another hobby had he so wished and
that is System. Not only must there
be system in the organization of crews
to do the work but also system in the
way the work is done. This is absol-
utely essential to get the work done
quickly and cheaply.
To prove what system will do Mr..
Allyn told of the road from Madison
Lake to Mankato, twelve miles in
length, which was gravelled in just
Thirty days-and that in the face of
band of farmers who chose to 60 on
strike.
He also proved that money for good
roads can always be raised by telling
how he solicited three hundred ten dol
lars in nineteen minutes. We confess
we held our breath for that's good
round sum even for one with such
taking" ways as Mr.. Allyn.
A road drag, invented by Mr.. Allyn
and with patent pending, was demon
strated to the Auto Club and farmers
this afternoon. This drag is built so
that it can be drawn by either automo-
bile or horsepower, and is wonderfully
effective. The inventor proposes that
such drag, built by a local black
smith and used continuously on Red
wood County roads would mean smooth
car and buggy riding this summer.

Mother Taken Away
Wife of Geo. Eckhart of Paxton Dies
Very Suddenly Friday
Afternoon

Mrs. George Eckhart died very sud-
denly at her home in Paxton township
last Friday afternoon. The death was
caused by cerebral apoplexy.
Mrs. Eckhart with her husband and
children, attended the school picnic in
the Grow Creek district Friday and
was apparently in her usual health all
day. She told her husband, when they
started for home about three o'clock
that she had very severe pain in her
head. Soon after she lapsed into a
dazed condition in which she remained
until her death which occurred between
five and six o'clock that evening.
Mr.. Eckhart sent at once for his
mother, brother and sister, and Mrs.
Eckhart's brother all of Shell Rock,
Iowa, who arrived here Saturday.
The funeral services were conducted
from. the home Sunday afternoon at
three o'clock, Rev. Ainsworth reading
the service. The body was taken to
Shell Rock yesterday where interment
will be made in the cemetery near Mrs
Eckhart's old home.
Mrs. Eckhart, who was formerly
Miss Dean Champlain,. was fifty-twe
years old, and is survived by her hus-
band and two children and several
brothers and sisters. She had made
her home in Paxton for the last few
years and had become well and favor
ably known. Her many friends will
mourn her sincerely, and her husband
and children have the sympathy Of
their friends and neighbors.

Farmers Witness a
Fine Demonstration
Dad Isham is Host For A Large At
tendance at the ArmOry
Today
R c. LEAGUE TALKS ON FENCING
Splendid Dinner Served by Ladies of
st. GATHERINGS Church at
Noon
!. C. TEAGUETALKS ON FENCING

Dad Isham, local representative for
the Botsford Lumber Co., was host at
large gathering of farmers who re-
sponded to the invitations sent out
last week to be present at the Ameri-
can Steel & Wire Co., demonstration
held at the Armory today. About 200
of the most progressive farmers of
the community were present and were
treated to a loyal reception, such as
has never been attempted heretofore.
The ladies of st. GATHERINGS church
served a splendid dinner at noon and
deserve much credit for the manner in
which they catered to the wants of
those present
An orchestra Of five pieces was en-
gagged to furnish music during lunch
con, which was another of dads" or
iginal ideas, for dad" can feast
much better to the strains of sweet
music.
After dinner the party was treated
to cigars and all took chairs in the
front of the hall where R. C. league,
who represents the American Steel &
Wire Co., gave most interesting talk
and demonstration of the company's
product.
In his talk to the guests, Mr.. league
gave out some very valuable informa-
ton on the construction of fencing ano
posts, which will be very valuable to
the farmers. While it is natural fol
one in his capacity to talk in favor OF
the article in which he is dealing, Mr.
league gave facts about fence build
ing that will be very helpful no mat
ter what material is used. Particular
ly interesting was the demonstration
of steel posts, which are rapidly taking
the place of those of any other mater
| ial, and for the benefit of those wht
were unable to attend the meeting ant
who may wish to learn the superio
methods and lasting qualities of thes
posts, we would refer you to Da,
Isham.
Il Every one who attended the meetin,
left with a feeling that he had receives
a great deal of useful knowledge an
that only Dad could have planned sue
royal entertainment.

The Scenic City Canning Company
shipped ton of canned string beans
to Park and Grant, wholesale grocers,
at WATERFOWL, s. D., last Saturday.
1t is evident these men are fond of
string beans, or have customers who
are, and know where to get the best.
VIM. Shannon, District Superin-
tendent of the Society for the Friend
less, was here Sunday and made two
addresses. He spoke at the Presby-
terrain church in the morning and at
the Methodist church in the evening.
His discourses were on the aims of the
Society, and the interesting work
done by it.
Prof. II. III. Williams left yesterday
for his new work in the Philippine
Islands. He sails from San Francisco
and will land at Manila, making sew
eral stops at interesting points on the
way. Mr.. williams does not definitely
know, as yet what his work will be, ex-
cept that it is along the line Of super
vision in the schools there which are
largely taught by native teachers.

10 Not Concerned Over Failure to
Recognize Huerta in Mexico.

London. Aug. Is. Surprise was
caused in England by the news from
khe United States that Ambassador
page had been instructed to apologize
ito the British government for the COM
ments made on the British policy by
Henry Lane Wilson. American ambas-
eador to Mexico. The affair had not
excited the slightest attention.
Tho British newspapers had ignored
Ambassador Wilson's statement, but
they print 1t today AZ an explanation
Of the grounds for the apology.
Ambassador Page is not likely to
see Sir Edward Grey. the British sec
retary Of state for foreign Affairs. this
week, as Mr. Page Is attending the
,Pigrim's ceremony at Southampton
today and Sir Edward expects to go to
the country tomorrow.
The Westminster Gazette. the gov
ernment organ. says:
THE difficulty between President
Wilson and Ambassador Wilson Is
purely doneatic and will not cause a
r:pple in the relations between the
British and American governments
President Wilson and Secretary OF
state Bryan may have good reasons oi
their own for not recognizing the
,Huerta government at the present mo-
mont, but they will not take offense al
other governments which have taken
a different course. and least OF all al

Tho war department. however. would

SUPERVISORS ARE MILD.
Resolutions Adopted on Road Question
Show Change Of Heart.

Show Change Of Heart.
Special to Times Republican.
Council Bluffs. Aug. 15.-From an
avowed intention to denounce the ROAD
law and the legislators. the state asso-
ciation OF supervisors experienced
change Of heart since coming here. ana
the following resolution was unani-
mously accepted by them today:
"Resolved. that 1t is the sense OF this
convention that while the framework
or the new road law has provided
system which will ultimately result IN
great good. still we believe that had the
recommendations Of this association
been followed as to brevity and time OF
taking effect the results would have
been moro satisfactory"
Cedar Rapids will entertain the next
convention of the four bodies. Election
OF officers of the supervisors resulted
as follows:
President, o. H. Dunlap Kalona.
Washington county: vice president. G..
A Meyer. Calmar, Winneshiek county:
secretary, A. N Grimm. Clear Lake,
Cerro Gordo county: treasurer, Henry

Emphasizing the maSHituoe dhu III
portance Of the road building project
provided for in the new Iowa road law.
Dean Arnston Marston. chairman OF the
state highway commission, in an ad-
dress before the supervisors conven-
ton in this city Thursday, pointed out
that in the next ten years over $780,
o00,0 900 would be available for road
building, a sum four times as great as
was required in building the Keokuk
dam.

Question to Remain as Grievance.

Toxic, Japan. Aug. 15.-It was an
nounced here today that tho United
States had intimated readiness to favor
in principle the payment OF an In
demnity to Japanese subjects who have
been affected by the California allen
land ownership legislation. The United
States has also recognized the right
OF Japan to adopt q measure similar to
the California bill.
From intimation given in official
circles 1t appears unlikely that Japan
will adopt either idea. What Japan
desires is permanent friendly relations
with the United States, and therefore
she seeks q fundamental solution OF the
difficulty. II the United States has no
solution to offer, 1t Is stated. Japan Will
probably allow the matter to remain as
a grievance.
The public feeling Of humiliation IN
this connection continues to be tanned
by inflammatory comments In the
newspapers. The Schochi Shimou'
which is often sensational. urged as an
object lesson to the United States the
expulsion of American missionaries
from Korea, on the ground that they
are undesirable aliens.

days session. after . two days fight
on the part OF republicans to prevent
the transfer OF wheat to the free list.
The present duty 10 IS cents per BUSH
Ell on wheat, with q duty OF 25 per
cent ON flour. The house committee
had reduced this to 10 cents per bu-
shel and had -four on the free list.
With the two exceptions the demo-
cratic senators lined up solidly in sup
port Of the finance committees amend
ment to transfer wheat to the free list.
The Louisiana senator's have voted
against their colleagues on a number
Of schedules because OF the free sugar
provisions to the tarin BILL Senator
Pointdexter. progressive. also voted
against free wheat.
The democrats also defeated an
amendment proposed by Senator Gron- :
ma to restore the cents duty on eggs
contained in the house bill. The vote
was 35 to % In favor Of the senate
committees proposal for free eggs. An
other amendment by Senator Gronna
for duties on milk and cream and one
for an increased duty on cheese were
defeated.
Senator Smith, Of Georgia, answered
the republican argument that the tar
if made the price Of wheat higher In
the United States than in Canada by
reading quotations from late newspa-
pers to show that wheat In Winnipeg
was higher per hushel than in Min
neapolis.
