THIEF RIVER HEALER
STILL BUSY BLISTERING

Jas. Whalen autoed over to Thief
River Falls Saturday with Geo. Nelson,
who consulted DR.. Kirby, the farmer
doctor who is said to have treated
thousands of patients this summer, in
regard to throat affection. The re-
port Of the so-called doctors death
seemed somewhat of an exaggeration,
according to recent visitors, as he con-
tinues to apply his blistering ointments
to all such as seek his help. Reports
have it that Kirby is: an old time
pharmacist, but he is without standing
among the medical fraternity OF the
state and hence can make no charge
for his professional services other
than for the medicines (which he pre-
scribes, these being of his own manu-
facture. Dozens of people from :s0ur
own territory have: visited. him during
the past few weeks, and while they
have returned with glowing accounts OF
wonderful cures affected by the doctors
methods. we are inclined to regard
these tales largely gas pure "bunk' I, as
we have failed ,toEcome in contact with
any reliable firstrhand information con-
cerning his Cures Such people as
consult him regarding their ailments
should, realize that they are taking a
long chance and are inviting further
trouble when permitting him to monkey
with their health. stephen Messenger.
Evidently the so-called doctor is a
psychologist. Blistering the necks OF
patients no doubt smarts and thus the
thoughts. of the sufferers are drawn
i from his or her old ailment to the pain
full neck. When the neck heals as it
will in a few days, the old disease will
very likely appear again. Cutting off
the big toe may stop the tooth-ache for
d while but it will not cure it, The
Imagination often plays prominent DE 91 II . q
part in causing and also cnring disease.
But its, sphere is limited and something
more than Imagination is needed to re
pair the delicate human machinery
when it actually has broken down. No
person should permit anyone to monk

SAUK CENTER SCHOOL
TEACHES HOW TO LIVE
No Room For Rofor1l1atory Spirit In
Institution Honor System
Prevails

There is nothing of the refOrmatOry
spirit about the State Home School for
girls at Sauk Center, Mimi, but it is
rather a school for delinquent and in
corrigible girls, according to Miss Lor-
etto G.. Newman, executive secretary of
Marshall Co. Child Welfare Board. The
school campus is made up. of the ad-
ministrative building and the cottage
system Each cottage accommodates
aboutk3O girls who each has a private
room There are no walls about the IN
stitution as the honor system prevails
and everything is done to make the
girls feel at home. Each cottage has
matron who acts in the capacity Of
mother to the girls living there. There
is also housekeeper although the girls
are practically responsible for the work
done. Mrs Fannie French Morse is SUI
perintende1t of the institution and has
been there since it's foundation eleven
years ago.
Each of the girl inmates of the school
has her own household duties to per-
form for two months at a time when
change is made and she takes UP some
other phase ofgthe work, as the routine
is changed every two months. Every
thing is run on the honor system and
the girls are supplied with a system of
toy money and the work that they do is
rewarded in this form Of currency
They may make between four and five
dollars week. With this they supply
their personal needs such as clothing
and, other things at community store
One Of the modes of punishment is by
c.s,,1e, nfvsr
rules. ,sff %st :.js .
arrival at the school girl is
placed in the receiving ward where she
stays three or four days and is ex-
amined by lady physician to see that
she is, physically fit to be started on her
new life. She is then taken to one OF
the cottages, according to her age and
delinquency. There are about ~ girls
in each of the cottages.
- Occasionally the girls of the institu-
ton are taken to the movies at Sauk
Center and it is expected that they will
soon have a movie house of their own at
the school, All of the. work at the in
stitution is done by the girls including
gardening, carpentering and any other
duties that are necessary to its upkeep
They also learn to can fruits and vege'
tables and all domestic duties while liv:
ing in the cottages. - 49,. -: ::
~. According, to the manual OF the
school, 'The policy of the management,
has been to break down the long stand
ing prejudice and tradition OF the re
formative institution; to demonstrate
that an institution could be so pregnant
with natural living conditions as t.
give practical training for real life out
side the institution" !: + - III. 49,,

1t may be regarded as one of the lead
