TWO BRIDGES BUILT
IN FOURTH. DISTRICT
Commissioner Axell Spends a Large
Portion of His Allotment in
Constructing Rridpes

commissioner Axell Spends a Large
Portion of His Allotment in
Constructing Bridges.
John G. Axell has large district
in respect to both territory and popu-
lation. His share of the highway
funds undoubtedly is altogether toe
small to cover all the road projects
that he would like to handle, but his
constituents can feel we'll satisfied
with what he has accomplished during
the past year.
Two bridges have been built in his
district which are a credit to the
county and third one has been much
improved.
One of these bridges is four and a
half miles north of Milaca. It spans
Rum river on the line between the
townships Of Page and Milaca. It is
1875 feet in length, has two iron spans,
two concrete abutments and one con-
crete pier.
Another bridge has been built
across the Rum on the northern boun-
Diary of Page township. It also has
two iron spans, two concrete abut-
ments, one concrete pier and is 100
feet in length.
The cost of constructing these two
bridges was $4,000. Half of this sum
was paid from the funds allotted to
the fourth commissioner district and
half by the county.
The steel bridge which is west of
the Whitney Brook school house has
been much improved. It has been
raised three feet and two concrete
abutments built. The town of Page
paid for this improvement.
Even though large sum of money
was spent on the bridges, considerable
work has been done on the roads in
the fourth district. Mr.. Axell has
followed the plan adopted by some of
the other commissioners and has
worked through the. town boards in
his district. During the past year 20
miles of roads have been graveled and
two miles graded.

However, as these passed away as
gradually as they came, he did not
feel alarmed. He is a portly man
weighing 240 pounds and is s feet II
inches tall. His health has been the
best and his relatives are at a loss to
realize why this unusual happenstanee
should occur to him.

PRINCETON TEAMS ARE
VICTORIOUS AT ST. PAUL
Boys Defeat Fast Quint by Score of
IL to 9; Local School Girls
Outclass Opponents.

Outclass Opponents.
Last Friday afternoon both the
boys and girls high school teams
motored to North st. Paul to play
their second set of this seasons con-
ference games. Both of the teams
were victorious.
The boys of the North st. Paul
high school have a husky group to
represent them on the basketball
floor. They understand the game and
displayed good team work, but they
were no match for our boys. Princeton
made good beginning by caging a
ball soon after the whistle blew. By
close guarding and good teamwork
our boys held the lead throughout the
entire game. The first half ended
with score of 6 to 2 in favor of
Princeton.
Throughout the last half a number
Of substitutions were made in the St.
Paul team, particularly in the position
of center where men were tried out
against Abrahamson. Their efforts
were of no avail. The final score was
IL to in favor of Princeton.
The St. Paul team made three free
goals while our boys made only two.
The other scores were made on free
throws in which Princeton proved to
be particularly adept.
The Princeton lineup was as fol-
lows: Hall, forward; Grow, forward;
Abrahamson, center; Sanford, guard;
Reichard, guard. Sampson and Jump
were substituted for Hall and Grow in
the last half.
The Princeton girls completely out
played their opponents. The st. Paul
girls started off in the lead but soon
lost it. At the end of the first quar-
ter the score was 5 to 3 in favor of
Princeton. From that time our girls
held the lead, giving their opponents
just two more points. The final score
was 16 to 3.
The Princeton girls lineup was as
follows: Ethel Shrode, jumping CEN
ter; Nellie Mark, running center;
Florence Miller, guard; Marion Nc
MILAN, guard; Joyce Chapman, for
ward; Mildred Newton, forward.
Mr.. Anderson of the Lutheran 'Theo-
logical Seminary, who acted as ref
cree, held the girls to rules the Prince
ton team was not accustomed to OBJ
serving. Consequently many fouls
were called. Ethel Shrode and Nellie
Mark were finally put. out Of the game
on personal fouls. Ethel Sausser took
Ethel Shrode's place and Mildred
Newton substituted for Nellie Mark,
while Laura Cater played forward.
Tomorrow evening, Friday Deem
Der Is, there will be- two interesting
contests between the Anoka and
Princeton teams in the auditorium of
the local high school. Every basket
ball fan should be out to see the boys
and girls play.

George Oliver Has Herd Tested.

George Oliver has a fine herd of
Jerseys of which he is justly proud.
Last year he had his cattle tested for
tuberculosis by the state inspector and
found all of them were in good condi-
ton. Just this week federal inspec-
tor has performed the second test with
the same results. AS soon as Mr..
Oliver receives his certificate he will
have evidence to show anyone that he
has federal accredited herd.

Plans for. the posthumous award

Moore Davidson, of st. Joseph, La,
for "ext1aordinary heroism" at the
battle near La Polka, France, where
he was killed while CALAMITY leading
his men in charge to silence Ger

slightly changed, according to an
nouncement from the authorities.
Instead of the presentation being
made at Fort Mcpherson, as origi-
nally planned, it will be made in
Washington, and the notable cere-
mony will take place at Arlington,
some time in February.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. M. Davidson,
parents of this Louisiana hero who
gave his life to the world cause, have
been advised of the change. They
will leave for Washington in Febru-
airy to be present at the citation.
"Jody," as he was Familiarity known
to his boy-hood friends, was one
Of the most popular of the Louisiana
boys in Washington. He was in
the office of Senator Jos. E. Rams
dell for two years as his assistant
secretary. When the war broke, ne
enlisted at Fort Meyer, where ne was
trained in the officers school, before
being assigned to overseas duty
"Jody" made a brilliant record a,
Fort Meyer, as he did in France. II
was said of him all through life
''he made good"
| Broken-hearted parents and rela
tives have nurtured this grain OF
satisfaction ever since they received
the news of his death in a telegram
from the War Deartment, received
at St. Joseph, November 26, 1918.
"This recognition by the govern
ment of the distinguished service!
of our boy, is naturally a source o.
deep qualification, but in no manne
does it lessen the awful pain that i

The upper end Of the rod Is bent In

The movement of the automobile

One of the most uncomfortable
things In the world is suddenly to dis
cover, when one is motoring far from
a supply station, that the gasoline
tank is empty or nearly so. Every au-
tomobiie driver meets with an ad-
venture of this sort at one time or an
other.
There ought surely to be some con-
trivance that would give timely adj
vance warning to the motolist of such
a happening.
A device newly patented by William
Crab Of Waterville, O., performs this
useful duty admirably. 1t is very SIM

The jefferson County High School

victory to it's undefeated seasons
record last Friday evening when the
Waterproof, La. boys came over and
tried issues with the local boys. The
score at the end of the first half
stood 10 Is, and the final score was
33 to 20, which indicates just how
evenly the two teams were matched
Features of the game, which was
played in the drizzling rain, was the
brilliant playing of Hugh McLaurin
for the Fayette boys and the young
man who played centre for the Wis
itors, whose name we failed to get.
The Waterproof boys are a gentle
manly bunch of youngsters and played
the game in a very sportsmanlike
manner, their conduct and skillful
playing winning division of APP
plause with the home team. It is a
pleasure to have such young men
visit our town and contest amateur
athletics with our boys.-Fayette

RED CROSS.

According to statistical information
Riven out by the National Head
quarters of the American Red Cross,
the Southern Division not only led
the entire nation in number of chap
tiers that are organized for service
. in time of emergency, but leads the
entire nation in the number OF
chapters that are actively carrying
on q peace time program.
Officials of the organization de-
clare that this is nothing short OF
remarkable due to the fact that pop
ulation centres in the South are COM
paratively few and that in the past
year, the outh more than any other
sectioi suffered from financial de-
pression after the collapse in the
price Of cotton and recent ravages
Of the boil weevil.
However, the figures show that for
the month of September, the last
month reported, in the Southern
Division. comprising the states OF
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louis
lana, Mississippi, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Tennessee, and Vir-
sinia, there are ISL chapters and
.of these 817 are active.
