immediately took the train for Sis

enibatked the 5th day OF February
and landed at South Hampton nine
days later. In all they were gone a
bit mQse than five months. During
this time, they visited in Norway
England and Sweden. They cross
ed over in British ship. A portion
OF France came into view from
the channel. Lars asys. however
that this did not cause him any
great desire to sling pack and get
OF there. The French seaport

port which is SO dear" to the hearts
of those members of the A. E. =.
who happened to land there.
After landing at S. Hampton they
went to London, wher they explor-
ed that City for a day, They embark
ed the following day for Sweden
crossing Che North Sea. This trip
was long one. tor the distance
travelled, but was enjoyable as the
boat carraed but few passengers and
as a result was more convenient
than the crowded boat on which
they ctptss;1 sthe Atlantic.
Mr.. Nedreberg states that the la
bor and farmer forces in Norway
are making steady progress, that
the movement there can be favor
ably compared to the Nonpartisan
league movement.
Mr.. heidelberg also mentions the
fact that elaborate preparations are
being made in Norfiord, Norway
for celebration to be had in honor
of the many people in the United
States who have emmigrated from
that section. A fund is being rails
ed by the 'tNorfjordlage'' in this
country which is being given to the
poorer people of that section.
These gentlemen thoroughly en-.
joyed the trip. judging from thei,
own testimony, but are gladder still
to get home to the U. S. A.

ALL SHOW GOOD FORM

up; No Game Thursday

Another week of base ball has
slipped into history, and the unex-
pected has happened again. Just
when the local fans were getting
ready to wager that Sisseton's was
the fastest team in the state, the
dope was upset by no less an aggre-
cation than those lads from the
northeastern part of the county, the
town of Rosholt. After this change
of luck, a very noticeable change of
heart was predominant among To-
cal fans. But this attitude was
short lived, as the locals came back
strong the next day, pounded Tom
my King for Is saietys and Tailed
z runs as against for Rosho!t.
Thursdays game had caused the To-
cal boys to become angry, and they
were detrmined to give no let up un-
til the fans were convinced that any
club has a joiner day. AS result
Anderson, who had shut them out
on Friday, was given Q thorough
beating by the tune Of 10 to 4. VIII

home team, and projected unhitable
balls. in coDious quantities. Sundays

void OF good box work: but hitting
the ball was very much in order
Seven circuit clouts were registered

Jones and Hays made circuit drives
for Waubay.
AS Wednesday was an open date
practice was indulged in. The entire
team showed up we'll in practice. Il
long spell of batting practice was
first INDUCED in, after which infield
and outfield practice was made in
order. Harry Lano, who reported
to :ha club Tuesls::', showed up we'll
at short-stop. and will very likely
be given permanent berth at that
position. Harry is brother OF A.t
I.an,, who worlse:: ut second for
Eisseton's team last year. He re-
ported from Casper, Wyoming,
where he has played this season. He
is a clean fielder. has good batting
eye. good wing. and should guard
that position we'll. Shorty" Dahl
strom, who came here from the Ab-
erdeen club, was released to join
western club, and left Friday.
Game Thursday? Impossible, but
fine weather for young ducks. The
ball park is Transforming itself into
a fish pond, and SO long as we have
men of small stature on the team,
we'll not take chances ON game

case was brought following the at-
tempt of the opposition to the Nol-

navian bank because 1t had made
loans to the League and other far
mer organizations. which loans were
alleged to be in excess Of the limit

Few banks live up to the letter 81

ed he was not guilty-that he had

fact is that the case was not brought

costume for school occasions would
do much toward increasing the spirit

well as preventing envy and heartache
among those who cannot appear Is

The uniform adopted by one eastern
high school consists Of white duck or
