Local Boys Win
from LambertOn
SATURDAYS VICTORY I3-s-
THREE GAMES PLAYED THIS
WEEK.

The local High School nine con-
tinued its slugging bee, at Lamber-
ton last Friday and walked away with
1879 win. The locals pulled off
some pretty baseball playing, making
only two errors in the course of the
game. Twelve well-placed hits were
accounted fof, from the lanky speed
artist pitching for the opponents,
while only seven hits< were obtained
from the local twirler although he
allowed nine walks.
Tom Gull. started the proceedings
with a grounder to pitch which he
muffed, and Tom perched on first.
Peavey slammed one over the left
field fence for a three bagger scoring
Gull. Peavey came home on Burmei-
ster's single. Corbet flyed out and
the side retired. Lamberton could
only account for one run on walk,
single and a double.
In the second round Redwood cut
loose and brought in six runs. Hits
were made all over the ragged LAM
berton outfield but stiff playing on
the part of the infield finally re-
tired the locals with the count 81.
An error by Peavey with two on
gave Lamberton a couple of runs and
two more scattered hits brought in
two more runs. The Lamberton lads
had considerable trouble in locating
Schraeder's slants but the local hurl-
er was lacking in control and pre-
sented several free passages.
With Redwood again at the cudgel
Lamberton frightened up and held the
locals to one run, while they chalked
up three runs with none out. With
the count S-9 Redwoods smile began to
fade and look of grim determine
ton came over their faces. To fur
ther their agony Schraeder walked
the next two men. The next Lam
berton man fyed out to Corbet and
the next Schraeder whitfield. With
two out and two on the Lamberton
pitcher clouted one over the fence
for should-have-b been. three Dagger
but Englund procured the agate and
hurled it in to Peavey on third just as
the pitcher was rounding the corner.
Peavey threw to Manning at home
and the runner turned to come back
to third. Manning returned the
sphere to Peavey who dove with the

matter of inches, both runs and the
hit thereby null and void
Redwood clouted out enough hits in
the fourth inning to account for four
runs while Lamberton also brought in
four runs after Cchraeder had walked
four men straight. With the score
1873 in Redwood's favor neither side
scored in the remainder of the seven
innings. Gull and Peavey grabbed
grounders all over the infield and got
the man at first every time. The out
field nabbed off three flys without an
error. Lamberton frightened up es-
pecially the pitcher who whitfield sew

Will Admitted
to Probate
CONTEST IN EDLA j. MARITIME
WILL MAY COME BEFORE JURY
NEXT TERM OF COURT.

The matter of the will of Mrs. Ella
j. MARITIME, which is being contested,
was heard before A. R. A. Laudon,
Judge of Probate at the court house
last Friday. All the evidence in this
hearing was produced by the propon-
ents for whom attornies Hughes of
Mankato and Dolliff of Redwood Falls
appeared. No evidence was produced
at this time by the objectors. The
will therefore will be admitted to pro-
bate and Judge Laudon has so ruled.
w. H. Pay of Mankato was appointed
executor.
1t is probable that the objectors
will make an appeal to the district
court. If this is done the matter will
come up for jury trial, possibly at
the October term of District Court.
The case is attracting considerable
local attention because of the wide
acquaintanceship of Mrs. MARITIME and
because similar contests have been
very infrequent in Redwood County

Child Welfare
Board Meets
SEVENTY-NINE CASES HANDLED
DURING APRIL MEETING LAST
THURSDAY.

Miss Colby, District Representative
of the Childrens' Bureau of the State
Board Of Control commented very fov-
orably on the work accomplished by
the Child Welfare Board of Redwood
County at the meeting of the board
held May 10. At this meeting four
teen cases were discussed and the sec
retary was advised and helped by sug-
gestions as to possible solutions of
the problems in Child Welfare which
are constantly coming to the attention
of the Child Welfare Worker. Many
of the problems seem almost impos-
sible and great deal of patience,
good judgment and a knowledge of
resources to be had, are necessary if
the right plan is worked out.
The monthly report of Miss JOS
celyn who is Executive Secretary of
both the Red Cross and the Child We'll
fare Board shows that during the
month she worked on seventy-nine
cases of which so were Child Welfare
Problems. To accomplish this she
travelled 854 miles, wrote 66 letters.
and on Child Welfare cases alone had
139 interviews. Thirty-six home calls
were made in and about ten different
towns in Redwood county. 1t was
necessary to visit many towns more
than once during the month as the
work demanded.
Of the Child Welfare cases 40 are
old or continued cases and twelve are
new, two were reported as being sue
cessfully closed. Closing of Child
sc A.:
Often immediate need is met success
fully but the case still remains on the
active list since new problems are oc-
curing all the time. Often after seven
or eight years, unmarried mothers and
their little illegitimate children still
need our active assistance as much
as or even more than they did at the
time the child was born. Plans made
for neglected and delinquent children
must often be changed as years go
by. Laws and resources for carrying
for the illegitimate, dependent neg
lected and delinquent children are
much better today than even several
years ago.
tinued cases and five new or reopened
cases. During the month the work of
the secretary was rewarded by two
claims being successfully adjusted.
This means more than one would think
since claims require almost unlimited
work and patience if the claimant is
to receive the award he needs. Ask
the veteran and he will tell you all
about the work a claim involves.
Some of the volunteer workers in
different towns of the county are also
reporting success in claims on which
they have been working for months.

Fine Exhibit Held.

One of the best exhibits of work
ever done in the Home Economics and
Manual Training departments of the
local high school was made at the
high school building last Monday even
ing. Many parents and friends of the
boys and girls who had made the
articles shown attended the public ex-
hibition and expressed their admira-
tion of the excellent work.
In the Home Economics department
of which Miss Gladys Hewitt is the
instructor, variety of well-made art
icles of wearing apparel were shown.
Among these were sixty-eight dresses
which Miss Hewitt stated was not
more than half of the number of
dresses made in her classes this year.
These dresses were of cotton, linen,
wool or silk, and each one had been
designed and made entirely by the
girl to whom it belongs. Many of
the girls have been wearing dresses
of their own making throughout the
school year. With these were shown
beautifully made undergarments, ap-
rons, kimonas, childrens dresses and
household linens. The array was not
only surprising as to its quantity but
merited commentator because of its
excellent quality.
In the manual training department
directed by Ray K. Atkinson, the
display was equally pleasing. Many
articles of household furniture, well
designed and well made were shown,
some interesting work in metal had
been done by the boys of the class and
a number of articles made by the girls
of the teachers training class also
attracted attention. Lessons in knot
tieing, well-made horse brides of
the practical farm problems the boys
had worked out. The work showed
neatness, durability and close after
ton to detail and reflected credit on
the boys of the various classes and
their instructor. Some very well made
articles were the work of boys in the
eighth grade.
A meeting of the wool growers OF
Redwood County has been called by
County Agent Sheldon at Wabasso
Thursday evening May oath. The
purpose of the meeting is to discuss
the marketing of wool, and full at
tendance is urged.
