Many people in the county will be
interested and grieved to learn that
Miss Lydia Human was taken seri-
ously i'll at school directors meet
ing at Steele, N. D., July ii. Mr.
Hammond of Independence, Ia, was
notified at once and he took her to
minneapolis, where she could have
suitable medical aid. He then wrote
her friends in Vermont and California
"that everything that love and care
could do would be DONE" Miss Hin
imam lies in stupor most of the TIME
There seems to be no hope of perma-
lnent recovery. Miss Human was
known in the northern part of this
county as woman of sterling char
acter and teacher of exceptional
ability. Her influence has stimulated
the ambition and made better men
and women of all who knew her. Since
going West over 40 years ago she has
entered into civic and political life
wherever education and child welfare
and better homes were the subject
She has served several terms as coun-
ty director of education. Her chart
ties have been many and like the
"bread cast upon the waters" it has
come back to her, for those who are
caring for her now are among those
she has benefited.
