Securing Soldier Sentiment

Securing Soldier Sentiment
L. E. Sapp, a representative of the
Stars and Stripes, publication for
the ex-service men of the late World
War, was in the city during the latter
part OF last week securing a concen-
sus Of opinion Of fifty service men In
the city as to the bonus question now
facing Congress. He has selected the
fifty signatures among men Of various
occupations. The Legion Post in the
city has also been requested to state
it's stand on the matter. The senti-
ment appears to favor loan or bond
aid rather than a cash bonus, Mr.. Sapp
stated.
A referendum is being made over
the entire nation. the results of which
may have a great bearing on the at
titude and action of Congress when
it takes up the bonus bill.

BOY DROWNED
NP0lNT LAKE
Marvin Denserud, Twelve Years
Old, Loses Life by Leaky

Marvin Dengerud, the 12-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Dengerud
lost his life by drowning in Point
Lake last Sunday afternoon at 4:30
o'clock. .
-Four or five boys were playing on
the northeast shore of Point Lake,
west Of Eagle Lake last Sunday af-
ternoon. Two of them, Marvin Deng-
erud and Grin Brusven, stepped into
an old abandoned boat which lay on
the shore There were no oars and
the boat was leaky. In play the boys
pushed it off from shore, when the
wind from around the point caught it
and set it adrift.s, Young Brusven at
tempted to bail out the boat and Mar
vim Dengepud attempted to paddle the
boat with his hands. They could not
prevent the outward drift Of the boat,
however, and soon the Dengerud boy
lost his balance and fell into the wa
ter, and the boat capsized. Marvin
never came up again, all witnesses to
the accident agree. Young Brusven
managed to swim around and crawl
up onto the overturned boat. He held
onto the boat while it drifted across
the lake. When it neared the oppo-
site shore John C. Strand of Willmar
went out into the water up to his
armpits and rescued the boy who was
by this time very cold and benumbed.
In the meantime the frightened
playmates had run around the lake
and to the nearest homes to give the
alarm. Orlean Knutson came to Ole
Birkeland's and Brusven's brother
came to- Gynild's. 1t required nearly
two hours before another boat could
be secured, manned for a search and
reach the scene of the accident.
Three men were in the party-Carl
Samuelson, Oscar Peterson and Ole
Birkeland. Within five minutes after
reaching the spot, the body was To-
Gated by the aid of garden rake at
a depth of about feet to muddy
bottom.
Marvin Benart Dengerud was born
in Dovre May 16, 1853. He is mourn
ed by the grief stricken parents and
two sisters-Grace and Dolores.
The funeral will occur next Friday
at one o'clock at the residence and at
two o'clock at the Eagle Lake church,
Rev. E. E. Gynild to ofSciate.

OTTONWO0D MAN
KILLED AT W|luLMAR
Anton Lien, age 40 year., Instantly
Dies After Accidental Di,charxe
of Gun thursday

The accidental discharge OF an old
double barreled shot gun resulted in
the instantaneous death OF Anton Lien
of Cottonwood early Thursday morn
ing, the sad tragedy occurring at $50
A. M. The unfortunate man was pass
ing thru the city and accompanied a
railroad car of his household goods, a
team of horses, cow, chickens and
some farm implements. He was en-
route to Lowry to make his future
home after having discontinued his
farming occupation near Cottonwood
but recently. He was in 1oie charge
of the car. At the time. "a was wait
ing for a North bound local, to leave.
Phillip Gillin, switchman in the
yards conversed with LIEN just a few
minutes prior to the report Of the gun.
The two men were standing near the
car and Lien had the gun IN his pos.
session. The car had been spotted
opposite the passenger station. Lien
inquired as to the time and whether
there was time to spare for a lunch
Upon being told that there was time
he left Gilin who walked away. Then
Gillin heard the gun shot and rushed
to the car to find the man dead with
bullet hole beneath his heart. It was
evident that death was accidental
The door opening of the car had been
partly closed with boards which forcei
Lien to climb into the car most incon
veniently While in the act of des
cending inside, the hammer doubtless
caught on something causing the dis
charge. The gun was very close st
that the wound made was. not lacer
alton.

the date selected. On that day the

corded the courtesy and entertainment

ways so that the two schools consti-
tute one system. One can pass from
one school to the other thru the con-
nection of halls.
We are featuring this week the spe-
cial feature section Of the new Junior
Senior High School. Even q casual
glance will reveal the splendid build
ing which is now the possession OF the
people of Willmar. Be sure to read
that page and then visit the school
and personally view the building.
On May 9th the schools will 90 on
with their work al usual. Glasses will
be held and all school work will 90 on
as regular. But It il understood by
students and teachers that they must
expect every minute the entrance OF
/ visitors. Extra seats will be placed In
the classrooms for the guests. An
| attempt will be made by the students
and teachers to give the visitors =
glimpse into the instruction work and
recitations. In all departments the
work will be exhibited. For the
schools it will. be an inspection day
when the people Of Willmar. parents
and friends, will form their opinion Of
our new building and the work be-
ing accomplished.

posed Cooperative Creamery in the
city will be laid before a special meet
ing to be held in the court room at the
County Courthouse Saturday after
noon at o'clock. H. G: Swanson with
the aid of County Agent Rodegeb has
drawn up the design and construction
during the past few weeks. These
plans and other matters will come be-
fore the meeting:
$SThe plans as now drafted provide
FOR a, building with a front of 80 feet
with entrances on both ends of the
structure. The property adjacent to
the Farmers Implement Company on
Pacific Avenue West has been leased
and an option secured on it. There
will be full basement for storage
purposes and power plant. The
ground floor will be for the creamery
business rooms and Offices. 1t is plan
ned to carry on an ice cream, past
eurization, creamery, poultry and
eggs and in time perhaps a laundry
business in the building.
1T is estimated that the building
will .cost $4,000 and will be of brick
exterior. It will be fully modern anc
with the best of equipment. The far
mers have the cream and milk and by
the use of their cooperative creamery
are confident that they will give to the
public the best quality of psoduc
which a creamery can give if properl!
and rightly conducted.

He left for his parental home at Ljus-
dal, Helsingland, Sweden, on Decem-
Der 9, arriving in Sweden ON the 24th
of the same month. Iver found condi-

country as is prevalent here. Food
prices are fantastic and unemploy-
