best educationally. If only one or
two grades were removed from the
present high school building, 1t would
still be over crowded, and with In
creasing enrolment the situation
would again be critical. The removal
of three grades will cut down the
enrolment to a point where some
room will be left for growth, and this
building, the greater part of which Is
only ten years old, can continue to
be used for a period of years. Sepa..
ration Of the seventh, eighth and
ninth grades is also the best plan
educationally, this form Of organiza-
tion having within recent years been
adopted in most cities where new
buildings have been necessary.
The building program adopted by
the board of education is to include
relief for the crowded conditions IN
the Roosevelt school as soon as pos
sible after the Lincoln building is
erected; and is also to include a
building in the Franklin district,
similar to the. one planned in the
Lincoln district.

WRITING FROM CAPITAL
MANKATO YOUNG MAN is
IN WASHINGTON
He Witnessed the Inauguration
Of w. G. Harding Into the
Presidency

The following letter was received
by Mr.. and Mrs. n. p. Award OF 9lO
South Front Street, from ether son
who is attending The Bliss Electrical
School at Washington D. G.
Washington, D. c., March 5, l92l.-
Dear Mother and ALL. Well, saw
something yesterday that l never ex-
pected to see, and that was to see "a
President of the United States take
his oath of office. 1t surely gave me
a thrill, and | wished all the time that
you all could have been with me.
School was closed, so We went down
town right after breakfast. At ten
o'clock A. NJ, Pennsylvania Avenue
was roped off and nothing was allowed
to go on it. This Avenue runs from
the White House to the Capitol. Pres
ident Wilson and Mr.. Harding were
supposed to ride down from the Will
lard Hotel to the capitol at 10:30, bu
they didn't come until after eleven,
so you see we had long wait. They
finally came and such cheering you
have never heard! I saw Mr.. Hard
ing and President Wilson riding in
the rear seat of large car and both
had silk hats on. The Cavalry es-
corted them, and my! but it was a
pretty sight! All the horses were SO
high spirited, and all the men carried
sabers, whose blades flashed in the
sunlight. r.
After they went by. we slowly made
our way towards the capitol, which
was about five blocks off. Well, we
got there and jammed into the crowd
and then waited about two hours
C,,ch q crowd Of naonlai I helinVe
there were about 100000 people in
that bunch. We managed to work pul
way fairly well up in front of course
not way up-but about six hundred
feet from where they stood.
A system of am.plifers was used Sc
he could be heard several hundred feet
away. / thought that he never would
come out, but at last he did and we
saw and heard him take his oath OF
office, which was administered by
Chief Justice White, and also saw
him kiss the same Bible that Wash
ington kissed. Then he delivered his
address,-and it was wonderful.
suppose it is in your papers too, but
it makes more of an impression when
a fellow hears and sees him too.
After the address we crowded down
to the Avenue again and saw Presi-
dent Harding and his wife ride bacli
to the White House. We were close
by and had a good view Of them
That was all there was to it, so we
came back home.-Pll never forget
yesterday as long as I live.
School is going fine and dandy
Well guess that this is all for this
time and win close. Write soon

ANOTHER BAD CHECK
One Which Was Passed BY c. War.
nick Turns Up Very Recently.

HiSN uIHS OP very recently.
Chief Jacob Hilgers stated to The
Free Press today that another of the
bogus checks passed by G. Warwick
just showed up this. week, having
been returned to the American State
bank as a forgery. 1t would appear
that some time in November c.
Warwick cashed SIS check at Hen
line Brothers, proprietors of the Rex
Cigar store, which was drawn against
the account of John Graham Of In
dianapolis, Ind. The check through
an oversight of the Indiana bank was
paid and charged against the ac-
count of Mr.. Graham. Not calling
for statement of his account at the
Indianapolis bank for about three
months, M. Graham did not learn OF
the forged check until recently. In
looking over his cancelled checks, he
noticed it. Accompanying the bogus
paper when 1t was returned to the
American State bank was the affida-
Wit of Mr.. Graham stating that his
full name Is John T. Graham, while
the check was drawn against the ac-
count of John Graham.
Warwick was permitted to plead
guilty Thursday before Judge w. l.
Comstock in the district court to an
attempt at forgery in the second de-
gree. 1t Is understood that he is to
appear before Judge Comstock Mon
day morning at ten o'clock for sem
tence.

ODD FELLOWS ELECT
Such Is Recommended BY St;
Board of Visitors,
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch

lASSOC1ateQ Press DlSpatcn.
St. Paul, March 11.-Compensation
insurance and a pensioning system
for employees of the state is recon-
mended to the legislature in the bien-
nial report of the Minnesota State
Board of Visitors for Public Institu-
tions, made public today.
The report states that Minnesota
is operating under state compensa-
ton insurance law, which is sup
posed to give coverage and protec-
tion to all employees throughout the
continues. are without such protec-
| ton under the present compensation
law, and do not derive any consider
alton at time of sickness and acci-
dent.
Under existing conditions, when
an employe of the state is killed or
| injured, the case is generally taken
to the legislature at it's next meeting
with request for fitting and pro-
jured party or for the relief of de-
pendent survivors If death resulted.
Although the legislature is fair and
generous in these matters, the re-
port adds, there is a certain degree of
uncertainty and at best a lengthy
period of waiting, possibly two years.
The cost Of awards under COM
penSatlon act, the report states, would
hardly be more expense to the state
than the appropriations total.
The matter of a pension system
where state employees, after serving
for many years, should derive some
revenue, was suggested to the board
by employees of the Fergus Falls State
Hospital for the Insane.
The request is that employees who
have been employed in state service
for period of twenty five years may
then retire on pension of one half
the salary received during the last
year of state employment, providing
the age of sixty five years has been
reached.

panied by three fellow workers, went
to Lander on speeder-a motor

from the quarry to the town. They
met the $3.50 train at Lander and
three other members of the work
crew who arrived on that train ac-
companied the men on the speeder to
return to the camp at the quarry.
About q mile and half east of the

good rate Of speed, they ran into a
horse which had strayed upon the
tracks. The speeder struck the ami
NAL with such force that it was
thrown back upon the men on the car

seriously injured Oscar Nelson
whose body arrived here, lived only
three hours following the accident
Alfred Nelson sustained broken bones
in his left hand and was considerably
bruised about the head and face He
was able to accompany the remains OF
his brother home, however, and, re-
ports that the three other men were
still in the hospital at Lander when he
departed from there.

undertaking parlors in this city and
