The tenth grade gave it's COM
mencement program at the Saum
school on Memorial Day. The pio-
neers of the county held a reunion,
also, in the afternoon. The day
| closed with basket supper for the
Red Cross. The day was a Red Cross
| day from early morning, being the
close of two weeks Red Cross drive
in the school:
Commencement program was
scheduled for 10 a. m. The follow
| ing students were graduates: Arthur
Olson, Harold Hankey, Dorothy Carl
son, Janette Gilge, Isabel Hankey,
Elmer johnson, Della Anderson, Reu
ben Carlson, Myrtle Monson, Verna
Monson, A1vira Fossum, Arthur
| Krogseng, Lillian Anderson.
| At / p. M, Miss Shetland deliv-
cred the memorial address of the day,
before large audience on the school
grounds, in front of the school house.
Agricultural Agent Aamodt was
| present and spoke to the farmers,
also Mr.. Clelland from the Univer-
sity Farm school. A number of old
settlers also spoke during the day,
| including our county commissioner.
| At 3 p. m, a Red Cross sale of
manual training things was held, the
| auction netting $22. A quilt made
| by the pupils of the Fifth grade was
| also sold, netting $40. The candy
saving of the school children for the
week was So. This gave the Junior
Red Cross of the school a total con-
tribution for the year of $50, as $40
was contributed before.
During the day, the ladies served
lunch, and at night gave a basket
supper, netting in all over $780, 1

Wishes especially to thank William
Klock, who was auctioneer for the
Iday. Without his services the sale
would not have been such a success.
He gave his time freely to the work
of the Red Cross, receiving no pay,
and expressing himself that he wish
ed he could do more. He cannot
serve in France, but he has certainly
served we'll in America.
The Lutheran Ladies aid also de-
serves much credit for the success OF
the day, Mrs. Krogseng taking the
lead, having spent all day and most
of the night in the domestic science
room. The entire proceeds were gen.
erously turned into the Red Cross
fund

RIsKEDt HIS LIFE FOR tENEMY
Glorious Deed Of English Officer Surely
Constituted the Highest
gfss55.. Type of Bravery. %.& ',4z5.t

Valor and glory shine brightest
when we behold them In sacrifices such
as that Of Gen. John Cough, ". O.,
who went from his place Of safety far
down the line to take comforts to his
old regiment, and was killed while on
his mission Of mercy. as.
If where high officer sacrifices
himself for his men is glorious, what
shall we say Of the deed Of a British
officer who offered himself to save his
foe? During an attempted daylight
raid on the part Of the Germans, they
were held up by a whitening machine

their own trenches. One poor Hun,
who was terribly wounded, was Inn
paled upon his own wire, and he hung
there writing in agony In the eyes Of
both armies. Finally the sight Of his
suffering and his cries for help were
too much for an English officer in the
trenches opposite. b Vaulting over the
parapet, he walked boldly across No
Mans Land in the direct face Of the.
foe. and lifting his wounded enemy
from the impaling wire, he carried him
across the Hun parapet and down into
his own trenches. When he arrived
there a German officer took an iron
cross which he wore of his own breast
and placed,it on the breast OF the brave.
British officer. The firing on both
sides ceased while he returned to his
own trenches. And looking on, both
friend and foe alike knew that they
had beheld the highest form Of glory.

beef, in fact. The north Pacific Is full
Of them. Only three-year-old males
are slaughtered. Little pieces of pork
are cooked with the seal roast, to give
It flavor. -

ivory tucks, also Is being modified.

WAS NOT ALWAYS 'DEGEMBER'
because of Changes Made in the Calen.
dar, Twelfth Month Has ssen
Given Many Names.

The name of December is no long
Ier appropriate, for it is derived from
"decem," the Latin word meaning
"ten." The name was first applied
ito the Romans when the year was d.
vided into ten months, with the ad-
dition Of supplementary days 10 COM
iplete the period required for a revo-
luton of the earth around the sun.
When the calendar Of Romulus
was amended in 713 B. c. by Numa
Pompilius and the year was divided
into twelve months, December be-
came the twelfth month, but retained
It's original name. The Emperor
Commodus, who reigned in the Sec
ond century, attempted to change
the name of December to Amazonius,
in honor of a fair favorite of that
name whom he had painted to re-
semble an Amazon. This innovation
was not popular, and when Com
modus died from poison admins
tered by another feminine favorite
the name of Amazonius died with
him
The ancient Saxons called the last
month Winter Monat, which was
afterward changed to Helig Monat,
or holy month, when they were con-
iverted to Christianity. The modern
Germans again changed the name to
Christ-Monat, because the month
contains the anniversary Of the birth
of Christ.

Prophecy Came True.

A story is told to the effect that ST.
mon Bolivar, when he was child Of
seven, had for a playmate in Spain,
a boy of about his own age named Fer.
dinand, the future Spanish King. One
day, while engaged in a game of bat
tledore and shuttlecock, a stroke by
young Bolivar knocked the cap from
Ferdinand's head. Whereupon an old
nurse, who witnessed the occurrence,
and who was deemed soothsayer, de-
clared that some day Bolivar would
knock the crown from the kings head.
Which feat he certainly did accomplish,
so far as South America was con-
cerned.

The WEN Is Very Busy.

Your heart is very busy organ.
While you breathe once, 1t beats four
times, says Popular Science Monthly.
At each beat it sends four pounds Of
blood through your veins and arteries.
The weight of the circulating blood is
20 pounds. When you run, your legs
and the other parts of your body
need more blood, so your heart must
pump faster.
