FIRST DIRT FLIES
ON SCHOOL MANSE
Billups & Majerus Begin Work
on First Teachers Home to
be Erected in State

Ground was broken here Monday
morning for the first consolidated
school home for teachers in the state
of Minnesota when Billups and Maj
erus, of Morris, began work on a con-
tract to erect the home at a cost of
Sc, 424. The contract for the work
was awarded to this firm last week
when three competing bids were
opened by the school board.
According to the contract the build
ing is to be finished Jan. ! when the
teachers will be mighty glad to move
in. Prof. Grafelman and the school
board plan a festive time at the dedi-
GATOR at which time President Vim
cent of the state university. Gov.
Burnquist and other public men will
participate in the program. The dedi-
dication will probably be held on Jan
uary 6 which date commentaries the
fourth anniversary of the consoli-
dated school in Alberta. The COM
pletion of the manse will give the
school another room urgently needed
at this time. In the basement will
be located the laundry, dining room
and cooking laboratory.
Messrs. Billups & Majerus expect
to put on large force of builders
as soon as the excavation and found
alton are finished in order that the
building may be inclosed before real
cold weather comes. The lumber
and material for the building were
purchased at the Geib-Carl yard in
this village, and will be supplied as
needed.

Mrs. L. M. Larson went to Morris
Monday where she spent the day

about two months. Mr.. Andert stat
ed honey was plentiful in the city

"Times in Italy are not very good
because of the war;" said Mr.. Lipuma
to the Tribune "There are not in
dications that the country is at war
other than the recruiting. In the
northern cities the horrors of war
have been brought home with consid-
cradle force. Austrian air craft have
repeatedly bombarded Venice and
other ancient cities and have destroyed
many fine old historic buildings be-
sides bringing death to many of its in
habitants. The feeling between lta-
liam and German have always been
cordial but the Austrian was too much
and to. aid him in this war was an i'm
possibility. The Italian army is one
of the finest and best equipped in the
world and once passage is forced

Josef will be compelled to lay aside
the crown and scepter and give back a
nice slice of northern Italian soil.
This war is all land grabber stunt.
The Central pow ers are, of course,
licked. When the war ends there
will be another and greater conflict
with Germany, Italy and England
against the Russian who expects to
fasten his claws on Constantinople.
In my country we believe Napoleon
was right when he predicted that
within one hundred years Europe
would be all republican or Russian. 1t
looks as if he were right. 1t will be
