The Agronomy class is complet-
ing the study of corn this week.
Judging from the appearance
of the various rooms Halloween
is approaching with rapid strides.
During the last few days the
Civics class has been studying
presidential campaigns, presi-
Dental conventions, political
platforms and the proposed
amendments to the State Consti-
tuition.
Now that the potato and ruta-
baga harvest is over and the ira
yelling show has left town attend
ance will probably be better and
the character of the work done
by the pupils improved. Irregp-
lar attendance at school and late
hours spell poor school work.
The motion picture program
under the auspices of the school
has been completed. Twelve
pictures will be shown. Much
time and effort has been expend-
ed in order that the program may
have something for both adults
and children, and only pictures
of high merit was selected. The

had cancer of the liver also and
the ailment was a very serious
one. She lived but eight days
following the operation. The
body was shipped to Askov for
burial Tuesday-to the communi-
ty which she had made her home
for a number of years together
with her family.
Kristiane Nielsen Berntsen was
born in Fyen, Denmark, on Dec.
10, 1877, grew to womanhood
there and on Oct. 3, 1901, was
united in marriage to Axel Bernt-
sen. The family lived in Den
mark until the fall of 1907 when
they emigrated to America,
spending first two months visit
ing relatives in Chicago and then
came to Askov in January, 1908.
Here they remained until 1914
when they decided to return to
their native land. The family
then spent nine years in Den
mark, Mrs. Berntsen and her two
daughters coming to America
again in the fall of 1923, Mr..
Berntsen having come a couple
of years ahead of them and was
employed here. Since returning
to America last year they have
made their home at st. Paul, hav-
ing recently purchased a resi-
dence at 1927 Randolph street.
Four children were born to this
union-all in Denmark-two of
whom died in infancy. The liv-
ing are Mrs. F. o. Lund, Askov,
and Lilly, at home in st. Paul.
Outside of her own family,
Mrs. Berntsen had one cousin
here in Askov, c. H. Hansen, and
several cousins in Chicago. There
are two sisters in Denmark and
her aged father is also living
there.

FRIEND, ONCE PROSPECTOR,
NOW in PAUPER'S GRAVE
Man Burned In Christmas Night
Orgy Bonfire, Made Strike
In South America

The final chapter in the death and
burial of former Garrett countian.
who died under rather mysterious cir
cumstances along the canal towpath
in Cumberland on Christmas night,
was printed in the Cumberland Times
of last Friday, as follows:
"Once prOspectOr in South Ameri-
ca, where he made a stake only to
lose it when he invested in machinery
to operate on a larger scale, Charles
Friend, a native of near Altamont,
Garrett county, who was burned to
death in bonfire on the towpath of
the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal on
Christmas night, while drinking or
gy was in progress, was buried in the
potter's field here this afternoon.
Friend, son of the late Samuel Friend,
prominent as farmer and Republi-
en- in Garrett county, in his earlier
days, was a telegrapher, working at
various points on the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad in this locality. Forty
years ago he and w. Grant Morris,
this city, went to Mexico. Later Friend
worked at various points in the south,
including Atlanta and Rome, Ga. He
made $4,000 on his gold prospecting
trip to Mexico. He came back to get
machinery to expand his operations,
only later to lose all.
Friend had lately been working
fOr the Kendall Lumber Company at
Crellin, Garrett county, and he came
to this city some weeks back with
several hundred dollars in cash which
he had saved from his labor. He en-
trusted the care Of part of the funds
with his old friend, Mr.. Morris, who
doled it out as demanded, but finally
it was all gone. Mr.. Morris last saw
Friend on Friday, December 81, when
he called on him at the Western I'm
ion telegraph Office and then he looked
rather good. Friend had an attract
i've personal bearing. He was unmar-
ried. When he was working in the
South ne had his mother with him.
She died in the South and he brought
her body back home. Friend has a
brother living near Altamont who has
reached old age and who was not
financially able to provide for his
{ burial.
"Friend was a capable man but was
addicted to drink and the bottles found
scattered near his body Indicated that
anything that had alcoholic content
would be used to satisfy his craving.
He was a friend Of Albert Droege,
leading official of the New York.
New Haven and Hartford Railroad, a
former resident Of Deer Park, and
Droege once gave Friend a position. -
