following to say regarding a
meeting which was recently
held there:
1.-THE school meeting Friday
night was well attended and the
proposed new school building
was discussed at some. length. 1t
is to be about 60 by 90 two story
brick and stone structure, steam
heated, electric lighted and to be
large enough to accommodate
about 200 pupils. A gymnasium
in the basement to be used also
for community gatherings cap
able of seating 400 people.
''The building is estimated to
cost $65,OOO.
About the only criticism
heard is that it will be too small
and also that a full basement
should be made instead of only
a portion for the gymnasium. We
cannot see how the added cost of
a. full basement would exceed
81, ZOO above part basement, and

ing so far as it goes. 1t certainly
would cost less at the start than
in few years later and the
building would be more substan-
tial and complete.
ANY way the community will
have a<first class school building
to be proud of, and an opportuni-
ty to have an eccellent school" /"

Thieves ut Pine City Again
Get Little.

Thieves whose main object was
money looted the safe at the
Madden Confectionery Sunday
night and got away with $45 in
silver and between 400 and 500
pennies. The safe door had not
been locked but the inner drawer
containing the silver was pro-
tected by the usual small lock
which was damaged to some ex-
tent by the key used by the
thieves. The pennies were in a
cigar box on a shelf near the safe
and all but about 35 of these
we're taken. Nothing else about
the store was tampered with and
as far as can be ascertained the
money is all that is missing.
The doors and windows were
all closed and locked and it is
supposed that a skeleton key
which would manipulate the lock
on the front door was used.
Nothing has been learned as
yet which would lead to the ap-
prehension of the guilty persons.

Intensive research is being con.
Quoted by American scientists to
ascertain an effective method of
removing tattoo marks from the
human countenance without
leaving disfguring scar.
: This movement is being led
through a sense of chivalry by
such eminent scientists as DR.
George H. Washburn of Harvard,
who served with the United
States Army medical corps as
specialist in restoring facial
featues of soldiers. distorted by
wounds. And it also is for the
purpose Of preventing natural

Armenian women and girls.
who were stolen during the war
by the Turks, Kurds and Tartars,
were tattoed on their cheeks and
foreheads in an attempt by their
brutal captors to add distinc-
tive facial adornment.
But the Armenian women dc
not consider the tattoo in the
same light, according to DR.. Viii,
fred Post Of Princeton, N. j., who
has returned from Asia Minor
where he served with the Neal

Post said. "the women and girls
of Armenia, stolen from their
homes and later escaped or res

irritants. Some have burned
their faces to a char with mineral
acids, and all who have expert.
mented with these drastic means
of effacing the stains from their
once comely faces have disfgured
themselves for life with grue-
some scars and splotches."
There are three approved
methods by which the tattooes
might be removed. Electrosis,
one of the methods. is attended

toOinQ.
Great interest in the outcome
of the research is being mani.
tested in medical circles owing
to the fact that the Armenian

A large number of friends
spent a pleasant evening Monday
with the Fenger family. the oc-
casion being DIR. and Mrs. p. N.
Fenger's 25th wedding annivers-
ary.
Friends commenced gathering
at the hospitable DR.. Fenger
home early in the evening but it
was not long before the house
was filed to overflowing and
standing room was at a premium.
However thoughtful friends had
planned for this emergency and
about $40 o'clock an invitation
came for everyone to journey to
the basement of the church. The
invitation was accepted and a
most pleasant evening was spent.
However before leaving the
Fenger home two songs, written
by relatives in Denmark for this
occasion. were sung by all. The
songs we're we'll written and i'm
cluded extracts from the family
history up to the time of the
Fengcr family leaving their ma.
tive country.
The basement of the church
was nicely decorated and all
were seated at tables, refresh
ments being served. Many short
talks were given among them be-
ing also one by DR.. Fenger which
was much enjoyed. The Doctor
is usually right to the point and
his remarks nearly always con-
tain a touch Of good humor.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Peterson
of Moline. ILL.,, who are visiting
here at the home of the formers
parents. Mr.. and Mrs. N. S. Peter
sen, aided considerable in making
the program q success in a musi-
cal way. Mr.. Petersen together
with H. Petersen played several
violin duets, the piano accom-
paniment being played by Mrs.
Robert Petersen.
No effort on the part Of any
one was done to invite anybody
to this celebration, as it was
known that this was the desire,
Of the Fen9ers and only those
who wished to personally call on
this estimable family were pre-
sent. About so people were pre-
sent. Several songs were sung
by the entire assemblage and i
very enjoyable evening was the
result.
DR.. and Mrs. Fenger's Ave
children were all home for the
silver wedding, They are: Gum
mar, Ejvind, Agnete. Ingrid and

sided in Askov about six or seven
