Miss Greene Talks
on Orient Colleges
SPEAKER TELLS OF WORK TO BE
DONE AMONG ORIENTAL
WOMEN.

Miss ida Greene of Chicago, execu-
tive secretary of the Seven Union
Christian Colleges Of the Orient gave
a very interesting and informative
talk on the college system at the
Methodist Church last Friday evening.
The meeting was fairly well attended,
all denominations being represented
In the audience. Before the meeting
opened Miss Iverson sang two selec-
tions, and the audience joined in sing
ing the missionary hymn of the world,
Oh Zion Haste. DIR. A. w. Ross gave
the invocation and Rev. B. L. Main in
troduced the speaker.
Miss Greene talked of the necessity
of women physicians in India and
:. China where the women are not per-
9itted to see men other than the men
r. their families and therefore must
fJe without medical aid unless women
physicians are forth coming. This
showed the great need of the medical
colleges which are included in those
for which she was seeking aid. She
also showed definitely and conclusively
why it is necessary to educate the
young women Of these countries to 90
the work of their native lands rather
than to provide missionaries from
alien countries. These young women
have an understanding of their coun-
tries conditions, of the restraining
hand of custom and tradition, and of
the private life of their own people
which no outsider could possible have.
It is the work of the Union Christian
Colleges to train these girls for this
work among their own benighted
people
The plea made by Miss Greene could
not fail to touch the heart and the
mind of every American woman who
contrasts the conditions under which
the girls and women of these lands
live with the conditions in America.
The talk was we'll illustrated with pic
lures thrown on the screen. An ap-
peal for funds for the support of these
colleges will be made throughout the
cominA year, funds thus obtained to
be augmented by proportionate sums
from the Rockefeller Foundation.
Mrs. D. l.. Crimmins is the tempor
airy chairman of the committee IN
charge.

'katO Teachers
College Burnes
CLASS WORK TO BE HELD IN
CHURCHES, HALLS AND
HOMES.

The main building of the State
Teachers college at Mankato and all
its contents were entirely destroyed
by fire Sunday morning. Loss was
estimated at more than $500,00O.
The flames were discovered shortly
after 9 o'clock, and spread rapidly to
all parts of the large building. Dense
smoke seriously hampered the work of
firemen, who were unable to penetrate
beyond the front halls. Aided by the
fire department from North Mankato,
the fremen turned their attention to
saving the elementary building, which
stands nearby. In this they were sue
cessful.
Crowds Gather.
Crowds gathered from Mankato and
nearby communities to watch the spec
tacle afforded by the flames. Church
attendance was considerably cut down
Within less than two hours after the
fire was discovered, the side walls had
fallen in and the building was conf
pletely gutted.
Shortly after noon, citizens of Man
kato gathered in a mass meeting at
the Elks' club to consider ways and
means of helping the school authori-
ties to carry on their work. Plans were
made to conduct classes tomorrow in
every available hall, in churches, and
in several of the more commodious
homes.
There is an enrolment of 575 stu
dents in the Normal department, near
ly all of whom were accommodated III
the building destroyed today. Living
quarters for the students were all 10
Gated in other buildings.
Immediate plans to rebuild the
structure are expected to result at a
meeting of the State Teachers college
board, which has been called in session
here Tuesday. Officials of the school
said tonight that the state will be COM
PEELED to pay more than S500,000 to re-
place the school building.
Professors Lose Heavily.
Severe personal losses were suffered
by several professors who had valua-
BILE possessions in their classrooms.
Nothing was saved. The articles de-
stroyed included maps, old manu-
scripts and valuable books. Prof. M.

Fathers and Sons
Banquet Feb. 3
COMMERCIAL CLUB ARRANGES
FOR SECOND ANNUAL
EVENT AT ARMORY,

Under the auspices of the CONNER
cial Club, Redwood Falls will again
have a Fathers and Sons banquet, the
probable date for this event being an
nounced as February %. It will be
held at the Armory as it was last
year and will be similar in many ways
to the 1921 affair which was unanim-
ously voted by all attending as one of
the greatest successes of this kind
that Redwood Falls had ever had. It
is the belief of the Club that these
banquets should be made annual
affairs.
President Stensvad and his execu-
tive committee met last week to dis
cuss plans for the banquet and their
discussion resulted in the appointing
of the following committee to take
charge of affairs: G. A. Jaehning,
chairman, Mrs. F. G. Hubbard, Mrs.
L. P. Larson, Chris Schultz and S. E.
Hargis. subcommittee have al
ready been appointed. 1t is the inten-
tion of the general executive COM
mittee to keep the menu very similar
to what it was last year, thus making
much simpler the work of the women
who will be asked to take charge of
that part of the evenings entertain
ment. A price of fifty cents cover
will be charged.
The first plan of the general COM
mittee was to hold this banquet Feb
ruary % but as the Armory is not
available for that evening it is pro-
bable that it will be held the evening
of February %. This will be decided
when Mr.. Jaehning meets with the
other members tonight and an early
announcement of the definite date will
be made

To Gravel Beach.

Redwood Falls will have a better
gravelled bathing beach next summer
than it had the past season. At least
that is the expectation of the CONNER
cial Club which has taken the matter
under advisement. To see that the
work is done properly and immediate
ly a committee consisting of D. L.
Crimmins, G. F. Gales and David
McNaughton has been appointed. This
has been thought an excellent time to
do this work since there are many un-
employed men and teams at present.

ton of Speaker Gillett, of Massachu-

ers of the Sixty-seventh congress will
be missing when the roll for the Six
ty-eighth is called.
Mondell, of Wyoming, is running
for the senate; Fordney, of Michigan,
is retiring of his own volition; Camp
bell, of Kansas was licked in the pri-

intimate contact with the house.
Others are likely to go in the pri-

The elimination of these elders has
brought the question of Republican
leadership in the Sixty eighth con-
gress sharply to the fore.
Longworth apparently stands in the
direct line of succession, altho he
won't be elected without fight. Sid
ney Anderson, of Minnesota, arrived
at the point of consideration at about
the same time.
Both Anderson and Longworth are
lawyers, as are rs per cent of the
members of congress. The tall Min
nesotan, however. is looked upon as
an agricultural representative. He
was chairman of the joint committee
which conducted a far-reaching in
vestigation into agricultural condi-
tons, and he has been a leader in the
agricultural bloc.

fourth fire alarm since the night of
July 4, when the house was partially
destroyed, came from the property of
Ira Mahaffey early today when the
barn on the place was completely de-
stroyed by fire of undetermined
origin. The residence has been I'M

blaze of July 4, which was followed
by two more alarms in the space of
few days, but which did little
damage. This mornings loss is esti-
mated at $3.50 without insurance.
Neighbors are alarmed and it is
said that the state fire marshal will
be asked to probe the activities of an
alleged firebug.

BOY DIES FOLLOWING
EXPLOSION OF FIREWORKS,

There is a lesson for every boy and
girl in the death of Charles Leroy
Garrison, aged 13 years, son of Mrs.
Anna M. Garrison, of ia South Main
street, who died last Friday at the
Municipal Hospital, in Atlantic City,
from lockjaw. This dread disease was
superinduced by playing with fire
works. The funeral of the little VIC
tim was held on Monday from the par
Tors of Jeffries & Keates, in Atlantic
City, and interment was made in
~Pleasantville Cemetery.
According to playmates of the Gar
rison boy the injuries resulted from
dropping lighted fire crackers into
bottles, so that they would explode
with a louder noise. While holding
one of the bottles with a lighted
cracker in it, it blew up in his hand.
Fragments of the broken bottle and
the powder from the exploded crack
er, wounded the boys left hand and
arm.
Early Friday morning the boy was
taken to the Municipal Hospital, but
died several hours after being adj
mitted.
