splendid education, he is also a man Of
mature judgment.
Born in Wisconsin 81 years ago,
he was educated in the public schools
of that state and at Luther College,
DEBORAH, Iowa, Gale College, Galesville,
Wisconsin, and Cation College, Mime
apolis, Minnesota. He pursued a
special course of study in accounting
and commercial law. For ten years
he was engaged in office and clerical
work.
He was married in 1909 and has
three children. In 1913 he settled upon
a farm northwest of Opheim upon
which, with his family, he still re-
sides.
Mr.. Christopherson has never be-
fore been a candidate for office. At
the earnest solicitation of his many
friends and neighbors he became a
candidate in the primary and was
nominated without opposition.
This office is an important one. The
validity of the court proceedings de-
pend in many cases upon the accur-
acy of the Clerks records. In every
way Mr.. Christopherson is equipped
to discharge the duties of the office
accurately and correctly.

Charles E. Peterson
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR CORONER

Charlie Peterson is SO we'll known
to the citizens of Valley County that
he scarcely needs an introduction
through these columns. He was born
on a farm in Stearns County, Mime
sofa, in 1876, attended the local schools
of that county and spent two years
working in an undertaking establish
ment in Chicago.
Charlie came to Glasgow something
over twenty years ago and has re-
sided here continuously since that time
and has been engaged in the furniture
and undertaking business for the past
thirteen years.
He has held the office of coroner for
several terms and has rarely had an
opponent for the office, his general
popularity over the county giving him
the office without opposition. He
probably has a larger acquaintance
than any other candidate on the coun-
ty ticket and it is a foregone conclus-
ion that each and every acquaintance
is a booster for his candidacy.

and high schools of Minnesota. Her
work in those schools won for her a
life certificate in that State.
She came to Valley County in 1916
and taught in the Glasgow High School
until the close of the school in 1919.
During that time she was in charge
of the normal training department.
The object of that department is to
train teachers for the schools of this
State. Her success in that line is de-
monstrated by the fact that in no
county of the state are the teachers in
the public schools better qualified to
perform the work required of them.
She holds a State first grade teachers
certificate in Montana. Such certifi-
Gates r granted only to teachers Of
high qualifications, and ability. No
one can advance any reason why Miss
Forster will not insure a continuation
of the excellent administration of this
office.
More than any other institution the
schools of North Dakota have suffer-
ed from the programme put in force in
that state. Miss Forster is not an ex-
pertinent in that office. The North
Dakota ideas of school administration
do not appeal to her at all. The work
that she has so far done in that office
is open to the inspection of the public.
You are invited to examine her record.
and after you have obtained full infor-
nation of its character and her abil-
ity you will undoubtedly vote to up
hold the present efficient school sys-
tenn in this county.
If elected, Miss Forster will devote
all her time and energy to the office.
