who are also plaintiffs in the nanda-
mus proceedings instituted in the dis
trict court, that there is no attempt to
incorporate the public school with the
parochial school. but that the dis
trict can be saved money by occupying
a portion Of the convent building
which is vacant at the present time,
and by the employment of teacher
who is doing some instruction in the
parochial school.
These members OF the board contend
that the public school will be entirely
separated from the parochial school
and that the same subjects will be
taught there as at the present school,
tha@ the school will be absolutely
under the control Of the county super
intendent OF schools and that sectarian
education will not enter into the pub
lie school part of the curriculum.
They also contend that with the
exception OF the three Brunette chill
dren. all the pupt3s win have less
distance to 90 to school and that as
they are all Catholics they will be
able to get their public school educa-
tion near the place where they secure
their religious education.

LAMBERTON THINKS
WE'LL OF OUR FAIR
They Pronounce it One of
the Best County Fairs
in the State

A goodly number of Lam
berton people attended the
county fair at Redwood Falls
last week, perhaps the larg-
est number going over on
Friday, which proved to be
the banner day for attend
ance. Those who attended
witnessed one of the very
best county fairs held in the
entire state. The exhibits
were all that could be hoped
for, the races excellent, and
the attractions clever and
entertaining.
In the exhibits depart
ment Lamberton was repre-
scented only by the school,
which drew a special premi-
UNI for it's display of canned
fruits and vegetables.
To the members of the
fair association is due no
small amount of credit for
putting Redwood county so
; we'll in the lead with it's fair
and with the many benefits
which come from it.-Lam-

the work and to supply the nee
essary heat.
All the up town work is COM
pleted for this season, and what
remains to be done will be fin

those who have contemplated
using heat from the mains, will
have to lay in a supply of coal
until Mr.. Burmeister is in a po-
sition to relieve the situation.

the Fire

The wheat elevator at Echo

the wheat elevator.

wheat and some barley and rye

The elevator was fully insured
and a blanket policy covered

company will meet with a big

The need of good equipment
to fight fire is absolutely essen

necessity for a fire engine, be-
cause we have had so few fires,
and none of them very costly
