Fred MeIges Hurt

Fred Melges the eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. julius Melges was the vic
tim of bad accident while skiing
on the Winter hill Sunday afternoon.
He had made the descent of big hill
twice but the third time tripped and
fell for some unknown reason, break
ing the knee joint of one leg. The
break is a bad one, the flesh also
being torn so badly that the bone pro-
truded through the clothing and it re-
uuired a large number of stitches to
close the flesh wound. The boy was
given surgical attention as soon as he
could be brought to town and is now
at the Redwood Falls hospital where
he is doing as well as could be ex-
pected considering the severity of the
accident. Fred is nearly seventeen
years of age and a member of the
Junior class of heNhigh school. He
plans already to continue his school
work however so as not to fall behind
his class and will resume his work as
soon as the pain abates sufficiently to
permit him to study. Several of his
teachers have already Offered their
services as tutors. Fred has born the
pain and discomfort ensuing from
the accident with great fortitude and
his friends are hopeful Of speedy
and complete recovery.

The famous American, exponent OF
the strenuous life, who had fought
in the Spanish American war, and

October.
To the very last Colonel Roosevelt
was active in the interests OF his
country. His program of public adj

nation for its part in the war and to
strengthen the resistance to enemy
lnronaganda and pacifism, was inter-
rupted late in the fall when he enter
| ed hospital for treatment OF his long
standing ailment, but the Colonel re-
doubled his efforts in the writing OF
editorials and public statements. HIS
last day was spent about his home
reading and writing.
The death of Quentin, youngest O.
the Roosevelt children and the injury
to Archie were serious blows to the
Colonels vitality, his physicians said,
and he failed to respond with his old
/ time vigor to the treatment admins
tered at the hospital. Yet he went
home the day before Christmas, APP
parently very much improved and had
been fairly well, although suffering
pain since then
He suffered severe attack OF rheu-
matism on New Years day, but none
believed that his illness would prove
fatal.
He died alone. while faithful ne

by the patients unusually heavy

to the American officers on their de-

"Sooner than you expected, your

the world at large and which will leave
us no hate to again disturb the peace

GIRLS DROP OLD HEADGEAR
French Peasants Discard Native Style
for City Fashions to Save
Thin Hair.

Paris.-Peasant girls Of France are
more than ever abandoning the close
fitting native headgear, to wear which
they had to have their tresses cut. In
rural France there is widespread
movement for the adoption Of the
"towny" style, which, if less pic
turesque, makes for the preservation
of woman's chief glory.
This fact coupled with the total
disappearance from the market OF
Chinese hair, from which the cheaper
grades of switches" and tails" used
to be made, renders false hair extreme
ly expensive in France.

this loss, is fairly rotten service,
