MARY JOHNSON


A very sad death occurred Saturday
morning at the Willmar Hospital,
when Mary Otillie johnson, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Brede johnson, pas
sed away following two weeks ill.,
ness with an aggravated case of ap-
pendicitis.
Mary was born at Willmar, July
~, 1898, was a bright girl and the
comfort Of her parents. Her untimefy
death is a most severe blow to the
family, and they have a host of SYM
pathizing friends in their trouble.
Besides the griefstricken parents she
is mourned by three brothers and one
sister-Henry, Martin, Olof and Caro-
line.
The funeral occurred yesterday af-
ternoon. Brief services were held at
the residence at 81 Fourth Street
East at one o'clock, and the sad cor
tege then proceeded to the Lutheran
Free church, where services were
held by Rev. M. B. Michaelson. The
deceased had been confirmed here,
and the pastor paid her beautiful
tribute. The interment took place
at the Lutheran Free church GENE
terry west Of the city. The following
were the pail bearers-Peder Basse-
DO, Walter Erickson, Ole Amundson,
Paul Holt, Lars Peterson and John
Lepiz.

An Inform. School Meeting.


An informal discussion of means to
relieve the crowded condition of the
city schools took place at the High
School room last Friday evening with
an attendance of about seventy citi-
zens, dozen Of whom were women.
Prof Foster suggested several alter
natives-continual crowding of pu-
pills into present rooms, building new
building, providing portable school
houses, having children attend half
days, and the II months scheme, by
which pupils would take their vaca-
tions of three months at different
times of the year, permitting the
buildings to be used all the time. This
last plan was discussed by several
present, most of whom were opposed
to the idea or thought it Impractical
BILE. The plan would divide the school
year into four periods of twelve weeks
eac ch. 1t would require more teachers
but no additional school room for
years to come. No plan was sugges-
ted for the approval Of the meeting,
and no action was taken. The discus
sion, informal as it was, probably was
of some benefit to those who attend
ed. Willmar will get the facilities they
need for the increasing number of pu'
pills when the parents wake up and
come out to the school meetings.
