WOODSMAN FREED
 0N MURDER COUNT
And Death Of Woman Home
 Steader Remains IJnsolVed

Baudette, Minn., June ii RS-- After six months incarceration, Tony Reamer. north woods trapper, was free today to return to the woods that had been his home for several years, exonerated by a grand jury of any connection with the death last fall in the northwest Angel country of Mrs. Dean Wheeler.
 The decision of the grand jury loft unsolved the unusual death of Mrs. Wheeler, whose body was found with a knife plunged through her side lying on the floor of the cabin which she and her husband, as homesteaders. made their home two weeks after their marriage in Kan- sas.
 Found dead by her husband and a, friend, last November 13, word of the tragedy was brought to War road. the nearest outpost. by 2. courier who spent several days mak- ing a circuitous route around the large lake of the woods. which, being half frozen, could not be crossed by boat or sled.
 Mrs. Wheeler's death was pro- nounced a suicide by coroner's jury. Later investigation, however, indicated that the woman might have been slain while her husband was absent from the cabin. With the Wheeler cabin 1sn miles beyond the frontier, investigation of the woman's death was a slow and tedious process. After several trips had been made into the woods by various investigators, some travelling by dog sled and some making the trip on snow shoes. it was determin- ed' according to officials, that Req mer was the last man to have seen Mrs. Wheeler alive.
 A search of the woods was begun and after several weeks, on hearing that he was wanted by authorities, Reamert gave himself up and said he did not fear to stand trial.

to take advantage OF an impf0 e.
ment that made their cars better
looking or easier to drive, as we'll as
providing greater safety and COM
fort. Since balloons combine these
necessary attributes they lead the
field with the women
Women who do considerable
driving are quick to notice the i'm
provement ia car control when using
Firestone balloons. Indeed, the ce-
casional driver appreciates the re-
lieved strain of applying brakes and
finds that what formerly required
all the strength at her command, has
been reduced to a mere movement
of the pedal, with instant response.
Women ere keen on appearance
and know what these big, Injurious
looking tires mean to the car and
they don't overlook the economy of
Firestone balloons in greater
mileage, longer car life and reduced
gas consumption.

keen intelligence of the fair sex"

State Aid

State educational equalization
fund is the right name for it. But
in discussing this matter, we viii
call it state aid because it is better
known by that name. Now in the
first place we must all agree that
without state aid the schools of Nor
gan county at the present time could
he run only about one-half time.
Some more, some less. There are.at
the present time "a counties which
receive state aid and ga counties
which do not receive it. Athens
county receives the largest amount,
over 100000. In 1923 the legisla-
ture repealed the law which created
state aid, the levying of LIS of a
mill on each dollar returned fo~
taxation, and at the present there is
no law which creates state aid. The
Legislature voluntarily appropriates
it from the general revenue fund of
the state, and it is placed entirely in
the hands of the director of educa-
ton. State aid does not come to
county through the efforts of any
one man, but through process of
law. To obtain state aid, the dis
trict applying for it must first vote a
ond, the local board must make ap-
plication to the director of educa-
ton for state aid. Third, the budg-
ct commission of the county must
raise the rate to 8 IL mills. Fourth,
the real estate of the district must
money. With those things complied
with, state aid is assured. There is
one way in which we may lose state
aid, and that is for local board to
pay the teachers more than the
schedule that disqualifies us from re-
ceiving state aid.
1 Now as most of the voters of
Morgan county are not familiar with
the law governing state aid, We
would suggest that you get copy of
the laws of Ohio, 1929, and on page
315 read the law and then you will
know for yourself, and then it will
not be necessary for men to write
long articles trying to deceive you
i about this matter.
Just word to the taxpayers and
patrons of Morgan county: We think
that We had better get the schools
of Morgan county in some shape SO
we can take care of them ourselves.
for those Ga counties which do not
receive state aid are becoming rest
less. They demanded the repeal of
the old way of raising state aid, and
lit was repealed. What will they de-
mand next? AS to our candidates
for county school board-Messrs.

of balloon tires was given today by

that women motorists are, to great
