Bankers to Picnic.

The Redwood County Bankers and
their families will hold their annual
picnic in Ramsey State Park on Mon
day, September third. At eleven o.
clock a business meeting will be held
in the Commercial Club rooms. I'M
mediately following this they will
adjourn to the park where each will
demonstrate his ability at surround
ing fried chicken and all that goes
with it. Whether there is to be a
pie-eating contest or not has not been
announced but statements have been
given out to the effect that after the
picnic dinner the men will engage in
a game of Kittenball. 1t has been
stated that most of the participants
show as much ability in running for
first base as political candidate run
ming for office. The Scenic City Band
will be on hand to furnish music for
the occasion. 1t is expected that the
picnickers will go to the fair grounds
at 2:30 to witness the game between
Fairfax and Seaforth but it is doubt
full whether they will admit that this
game is any better than the one held
in the park.

Thousands Inquire
About State Park
TOURISTS ANXIOUS FOR IN
FORMATION ABOUT RAMSEY
STATE PARK.

A short time ago an advertisement
was placed in the Minneapolis Journal
telling of the desirability and beauty
OF Ramsey Park as tourist park and
camping grounds. Countless inquiri-
es have been sent to the secretary of
the Redwood Falls Commercial Club
direct and many have been received
through the Ten Thousand Lakes As
sociation of Minnesota. To all these
people folder has been sent describ-
ing Ramsey State Park and certain
historical spots in and around Red
wood Falls. Letters have been receiv-
ed from tourists in forty-six states in
the union and large number from
Canada. Iowa leads the list with 903
letters received. 464 Minnesotans
have asked for information about
Ramsey State Park and declared their
intention of camping here while on
their vacations. Inquiries have come
from China, Japan, Porto Rico, Phil
lipine Islands, Spain and South Africa
about Minnesota's famous summer re-
sorts and each of these asked about
the Ramsey State Park at Redwood
Falls. Their names were forward
ed to Secretary Hauck and a descrip-
tive folder was sent to them.
1t means a great deal to the city
of Redwood Falls if only a small
number of those who inquire spend a
part of their vacation in the park
and from the number of cars bearing
licenses from out Of the state that
appear in Redwood Falls every day
it is not hard to estimate the worth
Of the advertising that is being done.

License Law Revised.

The last legislature passed an act
making it lawful for young men under
the age of twenty one and over the
age of fourteen years to hunt in the
state of Minnesota without paying
for hunting license. A close read;
ing of the law shows that every one
carrying a gun during the hunting
season is required to have license.
The way the matter stands now the
minor who is above fourteen years OF
age must have license but is not re-
quired to pay for it, with the probable
exception of the fee charged by the
auditor for filing out the license.

Baseball Team to
Play off Tie
SEAFORTH AND FAIRFAX WILL
PLAY AT COUNTY FAIR
GROUNDS MONDAY.

The Fairfax and Seaforth baseball
teams played a tie game Sunday aft
ernoon under very unfavorable wealth
er conditions. Because of this they
have been secured to play at the Red
wood County fair grounds on Mon
day afternoon at 2:30 O'Clock. The
Scenic City Band is again sponsoring
the game and will split with the teams
on a percentage basis. These two
teams are the best in their respective
leagues and will undoubtedly be a
big drawing card if the weather is
right. The band is making an effort
to have the business places in Red
wood Falls close from two o'clock un-
til five on Monday.
A band concert will be held III
Ramsey State Park at noon for the
bankers who are holding picnic at
that time. Immediately following
the picnic they will go to the fair
grounds where they will play during
the game. A concert will be given
Friday evening at eight o'clock on the
court house lawn.

A. M. Grunden.

A. M. Grunden, whose death on
Tuesday, the 14th, was mentioned
last week, was buried Sunday after
noon, Rev. Karleen having charge
of the services. The attendance
was very large, the neighbors and
many friends coming out to pay their
last token of respect to the departed.
Mr.. Grunden has lived in Gales since
the early 70's, and always taken live
ly interest in community affairs and
what would tend to it's betterment and
advancement For 43 years he was
treasurer of the school district and
for % years clerk of the township and
very conscientiously kept all records
and affairs entrusted to him in first
class shape. He made friends readily
by his ever cheerful and wholehearted
ways, and his passing away is felt
as distinct loss in the community in
the building of which he has taken a
big part both spiritually and polite
ally
At the time of his death he had
reached the age of II years, two
months and IL days. having been born
June End, 1916. in Vardalen, Norway.
His parents were Paul and Ingeborg
Grunden, who gave him very good
education for the time in which they
were living, as he was not very strong
physically. He was a very diligent
student, spending much time in seri-
Gus study by candle light, and his
studious habits clung to him for life.
In his young manhood he came to
America with some friends from his
home place, and for a few years,
worked in Minneapolis, and then to
Redwood county in 1874, which has
since been his home on the farm
homesteaded in Gales.
On July 9th, 1875, he was married
to Miss Peroline Swersdatter, who
together with six children are lett
to mourn him. He leaves also elev-
en- grandchildren and one great
grandchild. His parents are both
dead, his mother passing away Sept.
6, 1895, and his father April 2, 1900
The children are the sons Martin,
Paul and Saul, and the daughters
Mrs. Bertena (F. U.) Reynolds, Miss
Anna Petrina and Mrs. Julia (W. Al
Leonard, all of this community. The
sons Martin and Saul and the dau-
ghter Miss Anna have remained at
home caring for their aged parents
and the old home.-Walnut Grove
