Falls on ChuteS But
ReSCuerS Arrive and
Render Timely Aid

AS Sevath Boyum, o of Mr.. and
Mrs. Eric e. Boyum, was attempting
last Sunday to shoot the chutes at
the Puunene tank while he stood in
an erect position, he fell backward,
struck his head and sliding into the
water sank to the bottom of the tank.
Within five minutes he vas brought
up to the surface, lifted from the tank
and resuscitation measures under
taken. That his lungs were not filled
with water and that he did not drown
is explained by the fact hat he was
rendered unconscious by the blow on
the head he sustained as he fell.
With two young ladies Boyum had
been swimming in the tank. He is
an expert swimmer an diver and a
short time since had rescued a young
lady who had gone beyond her depth
in the surf. On Sunday he attempted
to negotiate the chutes standing erect
appears to have lost his footing, gone
over backward and hit the back of
his head against the end of the chutes
as his feet struck the water. He went
down and did not come to the surface.
The two young ladies sought to
bring him to the surface and a third
hastily donned swimming clothes n
joined in the attempts TO rescue as
one of the other two hurried for aid.
William Tougher, mill superintendent
at Puunene, fastened to the tank TAX
ing two Filipinos with him and they
quickly succeeded in reaching the un-
conscious body that was resting on
the bottom of the tank, Medical aid
was then secured.
Young Boyum remained u%nconsci-
GUS or only partially conscious until
Monday when he regained complete
consciousness and was reported as
progressing toward recovery unless
complications set in. That fatal re-
suits did not attend the accident is
considered as remarkable.
At last reports the patient at Pun
meme Hospital was still further inn
proved.
The injured youth is a senior in the
High School and highly popular with
his set. Mr.. Boyum, the father, Is
foreman of the Paia cement plant.

Pine County Farm
Bureau.
The Aims of the State Farm,
Bureau Federation.

The following letter from L. +.
Potter. president Of the Minneso-
Ia Farm Bureau Federation,
points out the aims Of the State
Federation:
FIRST the Federation is not a
organization but a
Federation of the County Farm
Bureaus. and it's work is to in
vestigate. guide and assist the
County Bureaus. by giving the
farmers through their activities.
legislation activities.
The aim Of the executive CON-
mittee. and all other committee
men will be directed along sane.
sensible lines to bring about So
cial and economic justice to agri.
culture.
The agricultural program is an
outline covering some of the Fee
dcration. The State Federation
should take up larger, more ex-
tensive problems as well as being
a clearing house for the county
units.
1t will be the aim Of the Fee.
deration to maintain the organi.
zation on its present plan of con.
Quoting all its business with the
doors wide open to the public
We realize this to be a departure
from the customary practice, but
will bring about a more united
spirit of service, and helpfulness
With this thought in view, and
knowing that public opinion
based on true facts. will enable
us to conduct the Federation &C.
Invites in a manner so that both
the producer and consumer will
receive due consideration and
Iequal justice. Also believing
that the majority Of our citizens
(lf they know the true conditions
and problems Of the farmer) will
have a higher appreciation Of the
services the farmer renders Il
humanity.
From this view point and thos,
thoughts in mind, our aim is not
to bring about sentiment or ere
ate legislation beneficial to agri
culture, that would be dctrimen
tai to the rest Of humanity
knowing that the average farme
has not been recognized social.
and in a business way their tru.
position.
1t is the duty Of the Federation
