He managed to get the team I'M
hitched from the rig and to safe

all right when they reached
Pollock, but it was necessary to
put Ellef and the mail through a
wringer.
MIR. and Mrs. A. r. Seymour
are happy over the arrival of a
baby boy at their sho1ieF north
west of Pollock last Friday morn
ing. Allie says that makes him
a full house now--three kings
and apair Of queens. That's a
pretty good hand.
G. III. Mckay was in from his
Glanavon farm Wednesday and
made this office a short call.
George sayshe has received a
beautifully engraved certificate
from the First National Bank, of
st Paul, as his prize for having
third best display of corn from
this district at the St. Paul corn
show.
E. M. Langeliers has purchased
of the Pollock State Bank a quar-
ter in 81 and 22-l29-78, known as
the Olive Lafave place. This
quarter joins Eddie's homestead,
and as he needs it in his business,
thought he better secure it before
some one bought it from under
him.
Mr.. and Mrs. Roy Bales and
their little daughter, Martha,
were passengers on Mondays
train for the east, bound for
Rochester, MINI. Some time
ago Martha suffered an injury to
her hip which causes her to be
quite lame at times and it is to
get expert opinion on the case
and advice as to what treatment
| is best to follow that calls them
away.
| Thomas Jackson, who sold his
farm to Olmstead Bros, short
time ago, has purchased of E. A.
lCrain the 400 acres remaining Of
the Frankhauser farm. 1t is all
in section 28129-77, and lies on
the west side of the Dale road,
Gerrit Brummel having bought
the other two quarters last fall.
Mr. Jackson paid $500, or $ls.25
per acre in cash. This is a
splendid well watered place and
fine for corn and hogs, alfalfa
and cattle, and the price will
look very cheap in another year
or two.

Notes From the County Superintend-
ent of Schools.
In the last essay contest Miss
Lucille Allen, of Braddock High
School, won highest honors. Her
subject was Care and Improve
ment of Highways" and was
very ably handled.
Eighth grade final examina-
tions will be held March 29th,
30th and 3lst. Teachers having
pupils wishing to take these ex.
aminations should report number
to this Office DIS soon as possible.
Miss Anna Luckeroth, of Wi
mona School distE2t, made S29.55

school house Friday evening,
February 18th.
The Special Day Programs
sent out by the state department,
which would have been of much
help to the teachers, arrived in
lthis Office Feb. 2lst. They were
mailed Immediately, but were
not of much value for Lincoln's
or Washington's birthdays. How
ever, they contain valuable hints
for Arbor and Bird Day, and also
4 for Decoration Day. We are
sorry that there were not enough
to give each teacher a copy,
Miss Madge King writes us
that her school board has fur
nished the school with a two
burner oil stove and the neces-
sary cooking dishes and that
they have been having hot
lunches since November, and
every one seems satisfied. We
are glad to note that in Cherry
Grove school district the rural
school receives the same consid-
GRAFTON as the city school.
At this time of the school year,
school boards are planning def
initely on the improvements to
be made this summer. This Of
flee has plans for school houses
on file which we think are "up to
the minute" for design and eff
ficiency. All interested are in
vited to call and look them over.
The modern tendency is to build
only one story, even though
twelve or fourteen rooms are
needed. Sioux Falls has four
one-story high school buildings
and plans are made for a
large one story high school at
Aberdeen. Points in favor of
1.-THE one story school, building are
many.
The National .Children's Blu
reau has designated the week

1.-THE care of their babies; second,
to bring home to every one in

{ the babies, the facts relating to
the babies of that special com
munity, and the need of perma
/ nent work for their welfare.

Louis Mabel Thomas was born on
the 5th of January 1895 and depart
ed this life January %, 1916, aged
81 years and % days.
She was a member of the Burnt
wood Sunday-school and became a
member of that church November
1912, where she remained faithful
until her death.
She greatly enjoyed the compan-
ionship of good books and was low
er of good music. She had a sunny
disposition, was kind hearted and en-
joyed the friendship Of all who knew
her.
Her life reminds us of the lily,
whose bloom is brief, yet full of kind
actions and good deeds.
She leaves a mother, sister, and
three brothers, and host of friends
to mourn their loss One sister and
her father having preceded her in
death.
Her illness was of long duration,
dating back to the spring of 1915
when she became a victim of tuber-
culosis and has gradually grown
weaker until death ended her suffer
ings.
Through her afIliction she mani
tested an abundance of patience, new
er murmuring nor complaining.

and say with Him, Thy Will, not
mine be done"
