Death came to Mrs. Laird Friday
morning of last week while she was a
guest at the home Of her granddau-
ghter, Mrs. A. Smith at Owatonna.
She had gone to Owatonna only about
ten days prior to her death and was
apparently in her usual state of
health. She did not complain Of ILL.,
ness until a few hours before she
died when she summoned Mrs. Smith
to her room. Within short time
she passed away, death comirg peace
fully and painlessly.
The deceased was born in Lon
Gudbrandsdalen, Norway, March %,
1S49. She was one of family of
four leaving two sisters and a brother.
When she was seventeen years of
age she came to America, living at
first with an aunt in Chicago. At
ter year there she came west to
Mankato where she later married D.
j. Laird. They resided in Mankato
for number of years, Mr.. Laird be-
ing engaged in the hardware busi-
ness there. In 1873 they came to
Redwood Falls where Mr.. Laird en-
gagged in the same business until his
death about sixteen years ego. To
them were born four children. The
two surviving children are Mrs. Ron
aldo Theiring of La Moure, N. D., and
Harry Laird of Twin Falls, Idaho.
Her eldest son Dallas Laird and an
other daughter, Mrs. Ida Nelson of
Granite Falls passed away several
years ago. She is also survived by
her brother John Ole of Copperstown,
N. D., six grand children and three
great grandchildren.
Mrs. Laird was an ardent and de-
vout communicate of the Episcopal
Church and was during her residence
here a faithful worker for the Church
of Holy Communion. She was also
a devoted member of the order of
Pythian Sisters and gave full allegi-
ance to the local temple. She was a
woman of great intelligence, of fine
character and of many sterling quali-
ties which endeared her to her many
friends. In spite of the many griefs
which had come into her life she was
cheerful and brave always and her
loyalty to Redwood Falls and Red
wood Falls friends was marked. She
is sincerely missed by her former
associates and friends and also by
many who have come to know her
only in the more recent years of her
life.

partments of three states TO Nhold vi
their end Of prohibition enforce
ment," will be a major item m tht
program of General Walter F. Rhin
ow, new administrator, said as hs
prepared to take over his new job.
His one regret, as he takes over ths
work of prohibition, he ssid, is thai
he will have to give up travelling by
airplane and will have 20 use ordin
ary automobiles and trains. A.
head of the national guard, planes o
the aero squadron have been at hie
disposal.
Definite efforts to "clean up" ir

~ don't know anything about my
new job, or much abous conditions,
he said. "But I hope to study the
situation and my force carefully, ther
proceed. l know it will be tough
job, but I intend to do my best.
The reorganized enforcement pro
gram calls for concentration on ma
jor violations, but that does not NEAR
that local conditions, moonshin.
making and bootlegging, will be per
mitted to thrive, General Rhinov
made plain.
81 expect to deal personally with
the sheriffs and police in towns al
over the district" he said. II pro
badly will have to travel great deal
because I hope to cover the entire
area in an effort to get cooperation.
General Rhinow has been give1
complete authority in the Job, includ
ing the right 80 keep whatever per
sonnel he wants, and to map his cam
paign for enforcememnt. He plan
to move slowly however, in the or
ganization at first, because he is &C
quainted with none of the presen
agents. He expects to go over tn,
situation thoroughly before makins
any decisions, he said.
The only appointment he has made
is that of legal adviser, To which pos
he named Lester E. Nelson of Willmal
| who has been in the prohibition de
partment at Washington. He is /:
University of Minnesota graduate
Although General Rhinow made n,
statement regarding j. G. Steenson
