PLUCKY GIRL SAVES TWO
COMPANIONS

Miss Mary Conkrite, 20, 4012
W. Lake street, today saved the
lives of two girl companions,
who, with her, broke through the
ice in Garfield park lagoon.
Miss Conkrite, Miss Victoria
Lartigue, 10, ass N. Springfield
avenue, and Miss Mary Code, 10,
438 N. Harding avenue, were
crossing the ice when it gave
way. All three were thrown into
the water.
Miss Conkrite managed to
catch hold of some solid ice. She
held the other two girls heads
above water until the park police
man rescued the trio. They were
all taken home.

the upkeep of prisons and juvenile
courts. Judge Pinckney, you re-

well equipped Fairgrounds, there
is no need for the juvenile

The saloon and the poolroom

mallar with the district IN WHICH
Webb lived, said today:
Until Fuller park was opened
last summer, this was one of the
worst districts in the city so far
as Fairgrounds were concerned.
While there were large park areas
back of the wards, it was too far
for the boys to go for their fun.
at seems to me only logical
that so-ca1led bad boys will grow
I'D in such a district. From
what I have seen and heard of
Bobbie Webb, I am sure he is
partly a product of selfish,
greedy, ignorant city which does
not give strong, lively boys a
chance. For years, the saloon
and the poolroom were the only
places for the boys of Webb's dis
trict to 60.
'"The politicians don't under
stand the proposition, and they
are too selfish to care to under
stand it.
"They want the money of the
taxpayers to keep their political
machines alive, and after the ma
chimes are cared for, they are
afraid to ask the taxpayers for
more money despite the terrible
need for more play spaces.
"And the taxpayer doesn't I'M
derstand. He does not see that
money spent on Fairgrounds is an
investment in better boys, better
citizens; he does not know that
every dollar spent for play
grounds means dollars saved in

SENIOR CLASS PLAYS
Merchant Of Venice Up-To-Date VIII
Be Presented By Seniors
May Is

The Senior Class Play has been de-
layed this year that the class might
make use of the new scenery for their
production. This, in itself, is well
worth seeing and will add much to the
effectiveness of the play.
The plot, clever burlesque on
Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice"
is interesting and full of humorous sit
uations. The play is one of the most
popular and successful of the present
day school plays. Unlike those pre-
sented for the past few years, it is
high school, not college production,
written by high school people to be
played by them. Plenty of school spirit
is shown, more over foot ball and love
than studies however.
The Seniors are showing originality
and talent in their Interpretation Of
the parts and the play will be well
worth your time and money.

Cantata Rehearsal
Shows Sure Success
Children And Teachers Working Hard
On The National Flower for
Friday Evening
PRETTY SOLOS AND CHoRUsEs
Swing Scene, Minuet and Rose Drill
Are Notable Features of
Performance

The school children, two hundred
fifty strong, are working with might
and main to make the National Flow
er an unqualified success and it is 60
ing to be just that, unless the final
performance is very different from
the rehearsals.
The cantata is succession of pretty
choruses by pretty children's voices,
graceful drills executed by graceful
girls and exquisite solos by the best
talent the city affords.
Speaking of solos, its worth three
times the price of admission to hear
Jimmie Smithers sing "I'm the merry
merry sunfower, I'm usually six feet
tall" and see him strut; and worth
another three admissions to see The
Canadian Thistle, alias Robert Fuller
and his enticing ways with the Ladies
of The Jury.
The minuet between Acts | and II
by six ladies and gentlemen is a mar
velous performance when one consid-
ers the age of the dancers. Another
strikingly beautiful feature is the
march of the roses. This is difficult
drill and its splendid execution is a
credit to the girls of the eighth grade
and to Miss Smoked who trained them
The costumer of the roses is particu.

Geo. AIIyn's Final Word
Road Maker Advises High Grading
and Careful Mixing of Soils and
Gravel

Geo. Allyn who talked before the
Automobile club last Tuesday evening,
called at The Gazette office before
leaving town Wednesday morning and
explained carefully one point that had
come up for discussion the night be-
fore.
This was the matter of the grading
or browning of the center of the road
to the height of two feet. Several
who heard Mr.. Allyn's talk contend
that so high crown would make too
great slant on which to use wagon
or car, should it be necessary to drive
on the side of the road.
Mr.. Allyn states that with road
built the proper width, thirty feet,
such a crown is in no wise too high.
This gives only twofoot slope in
each fifteen feet of width, and would
mean that the wheel in the center of
the road would be only eight inches
higher than the one on the outside.
This would be neither dangerous nor
inconvenient and would mean a we'll
drained road.
Another point Mr.. Allyn wished en-
phasized was the correct mixing of
clay, loan and gravel in road building.
Too much gravel is nearly as bad as
none at all. Two hundred loads to the
mile is the correct amount on the aver
age road; more than that means
packed gravel and ultimate pitch-holes.
In order to shed water and not hold it,
gravel must be correctly mixed with
loan and clay.
Everyone who heard Mr.. Allyn has
a renewed interest in good-road max
ing, and all count his address the best
ever given on the subject in Redwood
Falls. One citizen remarked that it
was "a talk which would hold good for
twenty-five years"

larly beautiful, and aids greatly in the
graceful appearance of this band of
flower maidens.
The swing scene and the chorus of
weeds are other unusual features,
which will be greatly appreciated by
the audience The notable solos are
sung by The Judge, The Sunfower,
The Onion, The Canadian Thistle and
Uncle Sam. The Jury, which by the
way, is exceedingly good looking for
a jury, does some splendid team work
in it's choruses.
While Miss Wood has been the prin-
cipa laader in the production, and has
worked strenuously since its COM
mencement, she has been most ably
assisted by all the grade teachers.
Certainly both the management and
the cast deserves the highest COM
mendation, both for the effort made
and for it's result which is very evil
dent. Mrs. Neiman as accompanist,
does splendid work and assists the
children wonderfully by her responsive
playing. The attempt to train the
children to appear in public is praise
worthy on the part of the teachers,
and in most cases, has been heartily
co-operated in by the parents.

brow | promise to earn a small part
of that dinner or furnish a substitute
who will sweat and may consent to
dine, or in lieu of the foregoing l will

The above is copy of the petition
being circulated among the citizens of
Redwood Falls by certain Good Roads
enthusiasts.
June II has been set aside as good
roads day throughout the state in &C
cordance with the Dunn road bill, and
the Governors proclamation TO that
effect will be issued shortly.
The enthusiasts of Redwood and
vicinity propose to make the day mem
orable as general good time as well
as work day. The scene of action
will probably be the road between the
city and Morton, and the day promises
to be big one, weather willing.
The petition has already thirty-eight
signers, headed by A. R. A. Laudon
who promises one team, one auto, one
spade, one ak and One Appetite. This
is followed by w. G. Weldon who pro-
misses one ditto H. A. Baldwin bonds

F. A. Gray will furnish one culprit
to work on the county road at the ex-
pense of the county-and probably

A. c. Dolliff offers the use of two
appetites and will try to boss, which is
exceedingly kind of the Judge-we al
ways knew he had it in him; while G.
A. Schildknecht promises his auto and
good will. 1t will certainly be some
thing accomplished to have Gus good
natured for one whole day at stretch.
Aside from these, the signers seem
inclined to work, and will undoubtedly
make it much easier for the Redwood
people to get to Morton to purchase
cheap CD groceries and hardware.
The ladies express great willingness
to help but object to the wording of
the petition-to the extent of two
words. Anyway its safe to say they'll
furnish the dinner, even enough for C.

Cured suddenly Wednesday at the
home of his sister, Mrs. S. P. Beggs,
No. 3416 Budlong avenue, after short
illness.
Born in southern Indiana, June IL,
1928, in the days of the tallow-dip
and the spinning-wheel, Ruter often
remarked that his life had spanned
the notwithstanding period of de-
velopment in the worlds history. AS
a boy the Cary sisters and Rebecca
Springer, all three cousins on the
maternal side, were his companions.
Ruter lived to see the names of the
Cary sisters writ large in the history
Of the poetical literature of America,
and Miss Springer attained to con-
siderable fame as novelist, poet and
writer on religious subjects. All three
died years ago.
With the outbreak of the Mexican
war, Ruter, in spite of his fathers
protests, enlisted as drummer boy
with the Fifth Indiana Volunteer In

on the long voyage down the Ohio
and Mississippi, where it went aboard
sailing vessels for the trip to West

PENMANSHIP CONTEST CLOSES
Rural School Pupils Write in Contest
Under The Direction of DIR.
Asleson

The Rural County Penmanship con-
test, which has been given in Redwood
County under the direction of DR.. AL
bert Asleson, has closed and the judges
have made their decision.
Miss Mary E. Virgins of District
SO won the first prize which is $3.50,
and Miss Lille Walter of District lot
won the second prize which is $3.50.
Those getting honorable mention and
their respective districts are as fol-
lows: First, Melba Neale, SO; second,
Anna Jensen 49; third Alma Dick
meier, 6 East; fourth Francis Grass
AT; fifth Christian R. Turbes, ga; sixth
Marie Jackson 46, seventh Bertha Nell
107; eighth, Frieda Drusch, 100.
There were seventy schools repre-
sented in the contest and three hun
dred twenty-four pupils wrote. The
judges were: County Superintendent,
Mrs. Pratt, Supt. C. w. Street and
DIR. VIM. Brand.
DR.. Asleson has greatly benefited
the school children Of the county by
inaugerating this contest, which has
melted them to greater efforts along
the line of good penmanship. Surely
after having written his name the
many times required, they will always
remember "A. Asleson, Jeweler and
Optician" and look for him in Redwood
Falls.
