 Urge Prompt Action.
 The senators laid stress on the need for prompt action as the regu- lar fall conference of the federal reserve board and governors of the reserve banks also is scheduled for tomorrow. The question of interest rates, it was stated would be con- sidered and the agricultural repre- sentatives declared they wish to pre- sent their views on crop financing be- fore federal authorities acted.
 Speakers at the meeting before the adoption of the resolution pro- posing to take the problem to the president, repeatedly denounced the deflation policy of Secretary Hous- ton. Farmers stood to lose millions unless the government acted to check the fall of prices, they declared, add ing that in many cases market prices were now below the actual cost Of growing. The result would be great ly reduced production next year they said, if remedy was not found.

The first issue of the 1920 Pine Cone, the High school weekly paper, was received by the students yester- day. The paper is a four column, four page one, containing original ar- ticles by students touching on all phases of school activities.

Its circulation is announced as 800, and the circulation manager, always an optimist, announced it will be doub- led withi the next few issues.

 All during the afternoon hours while immense crowds flocked to the district negroes dotted in and out of the alleys keeping apace the excite ment with laughter, joking and yell ing to one another in loud voices as they pointed out the progress of the flames, noting the waste of this and that neighbor's dwelling. A holiday spirit rather than semblences of a panic was prevalent. Men in dirty clothing and women with their dress es unkempt, some of them torn and some of the women half clad, rushed about keeping out of the flames path. Only here and there could be seen an aged negress sitting on an old mattress, her head down, mindful of what the fire meant, of the suf fering that would follow when ex- citment waned.
 But as the sun began to set the holiday spirit darkened with the twi- light. Children began to cry and search for their mothers. Parties of women began leaving. They had been told shelter was offered by this or that friend. Vigilance over a treasured stove or book case was re- linguished in the search for cover. When night had fallen few people remained in the district. Ruins still smoldered and at widely scattered in- tervals live embers would shine out on the darkness. Bremen were on guard, watching every gust of wind

THE FATHER KEEPS HIS BABY

The many Brookings people who
were sympathetically interested in the
welfare of the little girl born last week
in the Red Cross emergency hospital
a few minutes after its mother, Mrs.
Louis Germain, was brought to the
hospital severely i'll with influenza,
will be glad to learn that the baby,
whose mother died three days after
its birth, will have a good home with
the father and his parents, and with
her two young brothers.
Mr.. Germain's mother, Mrs. II. G..
Germain, who came here to care for
the children when their mother passed
away, took them to the home of her
husband and herself at Zwingle, a
small town near Dubuque, Ia, and
they will have the loving care of the
grandparents. The father, Louis Ger
main, who has for two years occupied
a farm eight miles northeast Of Brook
ings, will give up possession OF the
farm here and will make his home
with his parents and so be able to be
with his children and give them
fathers care.

FATHER AND SON DIE

Deaths hand fell heavily upon the
home of Mr. and Mrs M. c. McRae.

when the father died on Friday and
the only son, Lester, on Saturday, less
than twenty-four hours later. Both
We 'e victims of the prevailing cpl
demic and they were i'll but few
days. The mother also was very i'll
band and son, but is now recovering.
Everything that physicians could do
was done and the constant sympathetic
services of their many friends in the
neighborhood was freely given, but the
unusual virulence of the disease in
their cases could not be overcome.
Mordow c. McRae, the father, was
born July 26, 1878, at Neponsett, HI.
While a young man he removed TO
Wayne, Neb., where in 1900 he was
united in marriage with Miss Lucy
Brown, who survives him. Two sons
were born to them, one of whom dide
in infancy. With the other, Lester,
the parents came to Brookings county
in 1903 and located upon the farm near
Bushnell which has since been their
home. Mr. McRae was a man of ster-
ling character, one whom all who
knew admired and respected, and his
death is felt as a great loss to the
community.
The son, Lester McRae, was born
September II, 1901, at Wayne, Neb.
He was a young man of unusual prom
Use and popular in a large circle of
friends, both among the young people
of the neighborhood and also those
of mature years His seemingly un-
timely death has greatly grieved all
who knew him.
Funeral services for both father and
son were held Tuesday afternoon on
the lawn of the M. E. church at Bush
nell, conducted by the Rev. G.. II.
Zentz of Brookings, the music for the
occasion being furnished by the choir
from Aurora The bodies were brought
to this city and father and son were
laid to rest together in Greenwood
cemetery.

GWENDOllN ACkIEY DUNBAR

Gwendolin Ackley Dunbar, daughter
of Prof. and Mrs. B. A. Dunbar was
born July 27, 1904, at East Grand
Forks, Mimi, which was at that time
the home of her parents. Her death
occurred on Friday of last week at
the home of her parents in this city
Her earliest childhood was passed in
East Grand Forks and in Park River,
N. ID. Practically all of her school
days were passed in the public schools
of Brookings, which she entered in
January, 1911. in the second grade
At the time of her death she was a
member, with full classification, of
the Junior class of the high school.
She was an interested and active
member of the Y. w. c. A. sand was
its vice-president. In church work
she was also an unusually earnest and
effective worker for one OF her years
as a member of the Baptist Sunday
school, the Baptist Young Peoples So
ciety and the church choir. She was
charter member of the Girls Camp
Fire and was actively enthusiastic re-
garding outdoor sports.

into womanhood, immaculate in char

which the best and ablest of women
may aspire, with home that left moth

ginning, perhaps, to catch glimpses
in her girlish imagination of what the
future might hold for her as a woman.
seems hard for her friends to under
stand. They can console themselves
only with the realization that He who
doeth all things well does know why
she was called from this life, just as
it was begun, to the higher life
which may hold opportunities for de-
velopment and service of which the
finite mind can have no conception.
Funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon at the home, with friends
of the family on the lawn surrounding
the house, conducted by the Rev. Earl
V. Pierce of the Baptist church. Miss
Grace Winn sang "One Sweetly
Solemn Thought" and abide With
