nearby. In few hours he was taken
seriously i'll and after five days of
gradually lowering hope, passed away
on Saturday, Sept. 18th. The physi-
clans who diagnosed the strange
death of the boy agreed that it was
due to poisoning of arsenic secured
from one of the paint cans which were
found where the boys had left them
at the time of playing.

Sweden on October 7, 1914, and came
with his parents to this country and

bright and cheerful little boy. He is
survived, besides his grief stricken
parents, by three sisters, Gunild,
Maria and Tora.
The funeral was held today, WED

playmate to his resting place in Beth
ell Cemetery are: Henry Larson,
Harvey and Harold Nelson and Harold

ARM BROKEN IN A
SILACE CUTTER BLOWER

Emil Hanson of Fahlun sustained
a broken arm last Friday in the blow
er of his ensilage cutter. He had his
arm in the blower, when in some un-
accounted for manner the tractor
power attached started up before he
could withdraw his arm. Under the
circumstances he was mighty FORUM
ate in not losing his arm entirely
The clutch of a tractor is easily
thrown into gear, and Mr.. Hanson's
accident should be a warning to all
who use this kind of power to be care
full. Mr.. Hanson is in the city while
his injury is under treatment.

Work of Hope Hall.

Rock Islands opinion of paroled prisoners
as a class has not been improved by its re-
cent experience with them. The majority,
however, turn out all right, and most Of the re-
mainder would do so if they were given the
right kind OF encouragement. The confirmed
criminal is the exception among those incar-
cerated in our penal institutions
The other day Major NJ. A. Messlein retired
after Is years from the superintendency Of
Hope hall, small institution maintained by
the Volunteers of America in Chicago. and in
doing so he presented the state parole board
