the Bulldogs win today from the
Saints they go to Tampa tied with
the Saints for the leadership and will

Loses Home By Fire

The two story house on the farm Of
Fred Hahn was destroyed by fire Sun
day evening, when it caught fire from
a detected flue in the upper part of the
house.
Mr.. Hahan had just finished get
ting his meal and had taken his car
and came to town. He did not know
of the loss until sometime later. The
fire was first discovered by Mr.. and
Mrs. E. E. Sampsel, who were return
ing from visit with friends up the
river. When just a short distance
from the house they saw flames burst
out on the roof When they arrived
in the yard one end was all afire. Mr..
Sampsel. could do nothing, but carry
out the furniture in the rooms below
and it was not long before he had to
stop doing this,-as the fire was eating
its way through the second floor and
the house was filling up with smoke.
After some 20 minutes some OF the
Grosz boys arrived, but their combin-
ed efforts were futile against the now
blazing building. They were able to
save some of the furniture on the first
floor and that was ALL The rest OF the
property was completely lost.
It is understood Mr.. Hahan carried
some insurance on the building. He
has not stated whether he will build
again or not. Z,

Thrilling Time Had
At Sea By LocalBoy

One need not have sailed the Spanish
Main, or even shot an albatros to have
the experience of the Ancient Mariner
For thrills may be had in this day and
age, even though they may not bo
encounters with pirates.
Oscar Anderson, local boy, writes
to his mother here telling Of an un-
usual eventful voyage he just ccm-
pleted on the Pacific. This last trip
proved to be the most exciting one of
his five years on the water. 1t was
full of trouble from beginning to end,
running aground, running out Of food,
living ION soup for days, the captain
dying and getting arrested. These
were the high spots in five monts
voyage.
This spring the freight boat Oscar
was on left Aberdeen, Wash, with a
'oad for the Hawaiian Islands. The
boat was overloaded and all locked
for her to sink before they reached
the Island. On leaving Honolulu the
ship ran in reef and it took five tugs
to pull it of. The captain was blamed
for it and was arrested and his papers
taken away from him for ten days.
This made them ten days late in start
ing for the South Sea Islands, their
next destination.
Going down everything ran smooth
and after loading on a cargo OF copra
the ship started on its run back to the
states. The cook informed them that
there was plenty of food on the boat
and the crew took his word for 1t, but
after having their sails torn to ribbons
and depending entirely on the engines
for speed, the trip extended many days
longer than was expected. About
half way home the cook announced
that the larder was getting light. The
crew was cut down to two meals q
day AS time went on they were cut
to one meal a day. When the pangs
of hunger were beginning to rnaw
under their belts and no sight Of land
was discovered, to make matters
worse, the crew found their captain
dead in bed, from what was supposed
to be heart failure. They buried him
at sea that evening, but their thoughts
almost Immediately went back to the
question, which was on the lips of all,
will the food hold out. The last ten
| days they were fed nothing but soup
and black coffee, but they all survived
and when land was sighted their vis-
| ions of square meal had everything
| that was eatable as well as the TRIM
mings. They were 20 days on the re-
turn trip and Oscar said he lost 20
pounds. They landed at Portland,
! Oregon. -..- ~.
| Mr.. anderson expects to make a
visit home before he takes another
| trip. It will be remembered that he
enlisted before the war and was sent
! to the coast. There he served short
time before he was discharged be-
cause of his eyes. but soon after this
he took position as third engineer Of
freighter and has been following
the sea ever since. He holds the lo-
sition of chief engineer now and has
held it for the last three trips.

Later on some were sold when three
months old which brought only soc
each. Mr.. and Mrs. Brosterhous at
tended one Of our culling demonstra-
tions and after culling their own flock
they hope to do even better with their
poultry next year. Last year the
Rhode Island Reds averaged 1872 eggs
per hen. The average yield per hen
in the state is about 60 eggs. From
that it Is needless to say that MRS.
Brosterhous knows something about
raising poultry. This year, from April
1st to October i, the White leghorns
have averaged 96 eggs. A flock which
averaged 10 eggs per hen per year IS
considered mighty good flock. BY
April /, next year this flock will no
doubt. have made another mighty good
record. !,

accounts for them doing SO well.
Fred Hanson Of Garrison seeded
10 acres to- yellow sweet clover this

of 1t was seeded with wheat as a nurse
crop: Part Of it was seeded with mil

Il. The following is ansi article taken
from the monthly bulletin Of the Pa
rent Teachers Association, published
by the North Dakota p: T. A.;
The TWO Aims Of the p. T. A. :sast
The work of the Parent-Teacher
Association has two somewhat dist
:inct aims: ~ The support of the To-
cal schools and (2) &childwlefare.
Support Of the Public; Schools. The
immediate and particular function of
the association is the support Of the
schools Of. the community in which the
p. T. "A. exists. s;$i t E5z:,1
The members are the parents, rela-
.tives, employers, teachers, and friends
of the pupils and students. All are, or
should be, interested in providing
district can afford to raintain. There
should be opportunity in the meetings
of the association to freely discuss the
courses Of study, the Anumber and quail
ilcation Of the teaching staff, the
building equipment, and the school
budget. This does not, however, in
clude public criticism Of the work OF
individual teachers. Each year there
should be at least one meeting In which
the budget is the sole topic. The
Board of Education should take an ac-
tive part in the meeting. AS a mater
of fact, its members should taken an
active part in the association. In these
days of financial stringency it is nee
essary to have the cooperation of all
concerned This is the first consid-
Grafton of the association. 44-
4 Child Welfare: It is also the busi-
ness cf the P. T. A. to see that all
children are in condition to take ad-
vantage OF the good schools provided.
This will include the provision of pro.
per ventilation, good heating facili-
ties, good drinking water, sanitary
closets, proper lighting, regular ply
sicial training, attention to, defective
eyes,, ears, teeth, and general condi-
ton Of growth. The community Is
under an obligation to see that every
child Of school age has fair chance
and takes advantages Of it. The Gre
alton OF right school sentiment and
standards of child nurture and train
ing are the result of eternal vigilance
upon the part Of the older ones Of the
community. Such conditions will not
come by themselves the elders
must strive to bring about an atmos-
phere in which any child can and will
grow into manhood and womanhood, !,
q credit to the county, state, and ma
ton. When the conditions in every
community are good, then will the ma
ton be good. No organization has
more vital part to play than the Pa.
rent Teacher Association.
