CONTEST A SUCCESS
Prizes Awarded AS Scheduled
Close for Some Prizes
All Well Pleased

Never before has such a ven-
ture been made in this County
fas was brot to a successful close
Saturday night by the Courier
when it awarded to successful
contestants eight hundred dol
lars worth of prizes for their
efforts to collect subscription ac-
counts for this paper.
That results might have been
different had some started earl
ier and stayed on the job, there
is little doubt, but the winner of
the principal prize was so sue
cessful and persistent that
another would have known when
the contest closed, that she had
done some hard work to win.
The contestants conducted their
campaigns in the fairest and
best natnred way and all were
pleased with what they gained
for their efforts, tho each one
had striven for one of the big
prizes.
The Contest was also a sue
cess from the stand point of the
publisher, and to each and every
of the young women who inter-
ested themselves and hustled for
subscriptions and subscribers,
we express our gratitude, and
to those who favored the young
contestants by paying what was
due from them for the paper and
those who become new subscrib-
ers, we acknowledge high appre-
citation.
The method of conducting the
contest, the plan adopted for
determining winners and the
above-board fairness all through
the campaign met the warm ap-
proval of each contestant.
The Judges who cast up the
votes and declared the winners,
were:

MATTERS OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Question ofClosing the Schools Earlier
to Allowthe Boys to Work on the Farms
The State Board of Education,
through DR.. Wagner, State Commits
sioner of Education has sent out a
query to all high school principals as
to whether the schools should close
May Is, from the replies received the
commissioner has recommended to the
state board that those who 90 to work
to meet the food crisis ought to be
excused and should be given credit for
school work and be promoted. 1t is
belived that comparatively few of the
schools would lose any large number
of pupils. Most of the principals re-
port that pupils will continue to go to
school if the schools remain open.
Fully three-fourths of the replies to
the keeping the schools open favored
the open schools. DR.. Wagner and
the county suprintendent' in compli-
ance with the law enacted by the re-
cent General Assembly, providing for
the giving of meritorious recognition
and awards to all free schools, not
having special powers by incorpora-
tion or consolidation, that attain a
certain standard of efficiency and ex-
cellence, have prepared a tentative
scale on which snch credit is to be
| given, among which are the follow.

grounds, 30; school house, 25; furnish
inga, 35; equipment, 35; sanitation,
25; attendance, 60; activities, 80 ;
total, 300 points. An additional 100
points will be required from optional
offerings. making the total points to
be made 400 to secure standard

FORMER BEMIDJI BANK
CASHIER FLEES BULLETS
IN DESPERATE HOLDUP

According to an account in a Colo
RADIO paper, H. j. Unruh, formerly as
sistant cashier of the First National
bank Of this city, narrowly escaped
being killed. The article says in
part:
"ln an unsuccessful attempt to
loot the McCloud bank yesterday
forenoon, H. J. Unruh, cashier of
that institution, narrowly ecaped
with his life and one Of the high
Waymen lies dead in the undertaking
parlors of J. F. Kuck in this city.
At about 11:15 Wednesday morn
ing two macked men entered the
bank and opener fire on Cashier
Unruh. Unruh stopped down behind
the counter back of the cashiers
window and how he escaped being
fatally wounded by the stream of lead
which was directed at him from the
other side of the counter is mira.
Gle The counter was filled with bull
let holes. The cashier escaped with
a slight flesh wound in the shoulder. "
The paper states it is thought that
the man who was found dead was
either killed by one of his own men
to keep from "squealing' on the 9TH
ers, or he committed suicide, as he
was wounded in the heel and unable
to make his getaway.
