and of the corner fiirtations, and her
envy of other girls more fortunate
in richer young men, with this queer,
beautiful girl who treated him as a
hero. and whose life seemed mixed
up with danger and the making OF

TO VOTE ON SEPARATION
FOR ALL PURPOSES

A petition having been. c;rcu-
lated and the necessary signers
secured the matter of separating
the town Of Partridge from the
village of Askov for all purpos-
es will be voted on at the regu-
lar election on Tuesday, March
9th.
AS it now stands citizens with
in the village are permitted to
vote at the town elections and
also permitted to hold township
Offices whereas citizens living
outside the village limits are not
permitted to vote at the village
elections nor can they hold vii
lage Offices. This does not seem
just but is according to law and
is perhaps the principal reason
why the matter is being brought
to vote. However it must be
said to the credit Of the village
people. that they have taken
very little part in the voting at
Partridge township elections in
spite Of the fact that they were
fully justified in doing so accord
ing to law. There has perhaps
not been over a half dozen ci-
tizens in the village who have
voted on township affairs at any
election since the village was in
corporated nearly three years
ago.
If the matter carries next
Tuesday which it most likely
villas there appears to be no
opposition, the town and village
will then each have to elect
their own assessor and the town
board will conduct their own
elections and the village council
theirs instead Of the town board

The meeting was called to or
der by the president of the As

report.
A good talk on the value of
fullblooded stock was given by
Mr.. Montgomery of the Exten-
sion Division, State University.
Among other things Mr.. Mont
gomery said that Minnesota has
only begun in the live stock busi-
ness. The speaker also en- our
aged boys and girls Gibbs which
he said have tendency to inn
prove the live stock of the coun-
ty. One member of the Associa-
tion spoke up and said that he
had some thoroughbred cal, es
which he would sell cheaper to
boys and girls clubs than 70 any
one else in order 10 get the
movement started.
1t was also decided to arrange
for the exhibit Of boys and girls
club products at the county
fair. /.
Election Of officers resulted as
follows: President, NJ G. SO

the same time as has been done
the past three years. This Of
course will mean a little added
expense and for that reason il
might have been better to wait
year or two in separating ON
all purposes.1 The village will
then cease to pay it's pro rata
portion Of the town revenue
fund but will keep that for
paying it's own assessor and cleo
