pointed Father Hendricks as the first
pastor.
The good will and liberal assistance
of the people of East Grand Forks,
regardless of creed prompted the
erection of an edihce worthy to serve
as temple to the Most High. How
ever, there is no crown without
cross. The church was barely fin
ished when, within short hour, on
December l, 1895, all was reduced to
ashes. The destruction of their own
homes by fire would not have been
a severer blow to the prime movers
in the parish than burning of their
church. Right then and there, the
people showed that they were made
of stuff that spells success for they
Immediately built larger church.
In 1900, Father Hendricks was Sue
ceeded by Father J. F. Greene who
served the parish until his death,
February 20, 1909. Under his admin
istration the parish erected the present
parsonage at cost of $1,000. The
church also was furnished during this
period. Shortly after the death of
Father Greene, Father ]. Hogan took
charge of the parish. His great ac-
tivity soon brought the parish to a
high standard. Societies were Or
ganized and good results obtained
from the work reduced to a system.
In 1910, the diocese of Duluth was
divided and a new see erected in
Crookston to which see Sacred Heart
Church belongs. Father Hogan left
in the spring of 1911 and affiliated
himself to his former diocese of Du-
luth. In July of the same year Father
w. Klinkhammer, the present pastor,
took charge of the parish. Rt. Rev.
T. Corbett, bishop of Crookston,
filled with zeal for the best interests
of his people, thought the time was
ripe for the building of a parochial
school. Accordingly Father Klink-
hammer at once started the work of
building the present magnificent
Sacred Heart school. 1t was finished
and furnished by September |, 1912,
and open to receive its first pupils.
The sisters of St. Benedict of Villa
Sancta Scholastica, Duluth, were en-
gagged as teachers. They have made
the school a success and the pride

FIRST STATE BANK.

One OF the most prominent citizens
of East Grand Forks is Mr. N. J. Mel
son, cashier of the First State Bank.
A Red Wing boy, he came to East
Grand Forks some nine years ago
when this bank was first organized
and has since remained, doing most
effective work in the building up of
the institution and taking no small
part in the civic affairs of East Grand
Forks. The First State Bank has a
capital of $4,000 and total volume of
business as published on May l, 1915
per statement, of 1896, o,331.2o. The
loans and discounts are $322,116&,
the surplus $1,000, while the deposits
aggregate $35O,193 A feature Of the
conservatism displayed by those in
charge of this bank is shown by the
fact that where the reserve legally re-
quired on hand amounts to $2O,5O4.88,
this bank carries $5687654, we'll over
twice what is required. The COM
plete list of the personnel of the Of
fcers is as follows: c. J. Lofgren,
president; Frank J. Zeidlik, vice presi-
dent; H. A. Bronson, vice president;
N. J. Nelson. cashier, and Paul john
son, assistant cashier. The directors
number these same names with the
exception that Messrs F. w. Sprague,
c. M. Sprague and J. w. Wheeler,
appear as directors in place of the as
sistant cashiers name. The routine

this was bakery or delicatessen
establishment, this is. hardly quite cor
rect, though not far off. There is a
good opportunity always open in
East Grand Forks for the firm that
will carry neat line of groceries and
meats, and keep all fresh vegetables
in season. And this is precisely what
the above mentioned firm does.
Zeidlik & Fried have combined their
stock and so arranged it that one acts
as foil to the other with the best

salted with now and then a bit of
game, all paired off with fresh, crisp
vegetables in season. Try these peo-

East Grand Forks is city of 5000
population and is showing a steady
and substantial growth. 1t is a pro-
gressive city in every sense of the
word, as evidenced by its many and
substantial public improvements. De-
Mers avenue, the principal business
thoroughfare of the city, is paved it's
entire length. An ornamental lighting
system, one of the very finest in the
entire northewest, extends through the
entire business portion of the city,
while the residence sections are we'll
lighted by an arc light system.
The city owns and operates it's own
water works plant. This department
is governed by a commission of three
citizens and taxpayers. A first class
sewer system extends to all parts of
the CITY, East Grand Forks also en-
joys the advantages of a street car
system, the Grand Forks Street Rail-
way company's system extending to
this side of the river and traversing
the principal business and residence
sections.
A beautiful natural park purchased
by the city promises to become the
public playground of its inhabitants.
NOT until last summer, however, Hdu
the city taken any active steps to-
wards making this the beauty spot
that nature intended it to be. During
the past season a large and COM
modous band stand was erected in
the center of the park and other
minor improvements made. A num-
Der of important improvements are
contemplated for the coming year.
East Grand Forks has a splendid
Military Band of twenty-five pieces,
which has done much to advertise
the city. During the summer open air
concerts were given in the city park
at regular intervals.
The city has one of the best public
school systems in the northwest: Be-
sides the public schools, Sacred Heart
Academy is located here. This is

incorporated as The Church of the

new parish at the time demanded
brave hearts and strong wills. Peo-

wanting, though some may have
grown faint hearted before the dawn
of success appeared. The undertaking
was encouraged by the Rt. Rev. James

SCHOONER ESCAPES INJURY.
Sandy Hook Worked Off Piles at
North End of Alexandria.

From her precarious position on the
piles Of the old wharf at the north end
of Alexandria. where she went Satur-
day, the two-masted bay schooner
Sandy Hook. Capt. Hingerty, has es-
capped uninjured and is on her way
down the river en- route to her loading
point. When the tide fell after the YES
sci had run upon the piles her keel
could be seen. Her hull was exception
ally strong, however, and when the tide
came back full the vessel was worked
off and into the channel, but a few
feet away.
In the past four or Ave years a num-
Der of vessels have run upon the piles
that caught the Sandy Hook. and not
all of them have been fortunate enough
to escape uninjured. At ordinary low
tides they are covered by water, and
those unacQuainted with their location
see nothing to warn them of the dan
ger. Vessel masters have long contend
ed that the piles should be marked by
buoy. ~

RESERVE BANKS TO ACT
AS FEDERAL REPOSITORIES

Washington, Nov. 26. Secre-
tary McAdoo announced tonight
that he had decided to make the
Federal Reserve banks deposi-
tories and fiscal agents Of the
government. The necessary
orders will be effective January
LIST.
At the beginning Mr.. McAdoo
expects to transfer to the re
serve banks funds of the Federal
government now on deposit with
national banks in cities where
reserve banks are located,
amounting in all to about ST.
100000. In a letter to the Re
serve Board announcing the
plan the secretary says he has
decided to transfer at present
only the amount named in order
not to put an undue volume of
business upon the reserve banks.
No mention is made either in
the letter or the secretary's
statement Of the subject Of inter-
est on the government funds.
National banks are required to
pay 2 per cent on such deposits.
