NO YONG PARK
DISCUSSES FAR
EAST PROBLEM
KOREAN SPEAKER DELIGHTS
AUDIENCE BY ADDRESS ON
TRIUMPH OF CHRIST IN THE
ORIENT TUESDAY EVENING.

Pleading for the time when the
East shall face the West with smiles
and outstretched arms instead of
with frowns of hatred and loaded
guns, No Yong Park of Korea gave
to his audience Tuesday evening a
new conception of the problem of
uniting the great nations of Asia and
America. Mr. Park came to Redwood
Falls as a representative of the Ex-
tension bureau of the University of
Minnesota and spoke to an audience
which taxed the capacity of the Pres
byterian church auditorium. Earlier
in the day Mr.. Park made two ad-
dresses, one at each of the school
buildings. =
The greatest drawback to the tri-
umph of Christ in the Orient, as it
presents itself to Mr.. Yong, lies in
three serious faults of the West,
namely the aggressive exploitation of
the Eastern people by Western peo-
Piles, Western militarism and the i'm
perialism of the white races. These
are the potent factors in the slow
growth of the Christian movement
in the East and in the attacks period
ically made to exterminate the white
people in China, Japan and Korea.
The speaker made it clear to his
listeners that the attacks upon the

MANKATO YOUTH
GIVEN 80 YEARS
FOR TWO DEATHS
HARRY FLEMING, 10 YEAR OLD
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT, SENT
ENCED TO 80 YEARS BY JUDGE
JOHNSON TUESDAY.

Harry Flemming, 19 years old,
Mankato high school student, Tuesday
March 1st, was sentenced to serve
80 years in the state reformatory for
shooting to death Henry and Frank
Jacobe, farmers near here, December
II.
Pleading guilty to a charge of first
degree manslaughter for the shooting
of the elder Jacobe, Henry, 81 years
old, and to a second degree charge
growing out of the death of the son,
Frank, 20 years old, Flemming was
sentenced to serve 20 years on the
first and 10 on the second. He is to
serve the terms consecutively. Judge
Harry-A. Johnson imposed the sent
ences in district court after attorneys
for the young man made pleas for
leniency. Had the maximum been
imposed Flemming would have re-
ceived 35 years.
Flemming was indicted on two
charges of first degree murder, fol-
lowing the death of the two Jacobes,
who were shot by Flemming as they
advanced on hunting party to or
der them away. The party, made up
of high school students, halted to
build camp fire and rest.
Claiming that the Jacobes advanced
menacingly, Flemming said that he
fired in self defense.

AUNE and THUNE
OPEN new STORE
HERE MARCH 5TH
BUILDING REMODELED SINCE
OCTOBER FIRE NOW READY
FOR FORMAL OPENING NEXT
SATURDAY.

After being closed since October
18th, 1926, when it suffered a dis
astrous fire, the clothing store of
Aunc and Thune is to be again re-
opened for business, the opening date
being Saturday, March 5th. In the
period since the fire the building has
been repaired and remodeled, with
extensive improvements added. The
finishing touches are being made this
week, preparatory to showing the new
store to the public at the time of the
formal opening next Saturday.
The exterior of the store has been
completely altered by the new en-
trance thanked by large show windows
of the most modern type. This en-
trance extends for twenty-one feet
from the street level into the interior
of the building and is constructed of
marble, plate glass and metal sash,
topped by section of pyramid glass
bearing the firms name.
The beauty of the entrance, how
ever, lies in the large show windows,
one on either side of the central door.
These windows offer splendid op-
portunity for the display of clothing
and mems furnishings. They have
been artistically dressed for the OPEN
ing date, displaying the latest models
of mems wearing apparel.
The interior of the store is also
much improved by the changes made.
The office which formerly occupied
the rear of the ground floor, is now
situated in a spacious balcony run
ming across the-xear of the main room.
This leaves a greater floor space for
the large stock of clothing, shoes,
ETC., carried by the firm. Every inch
of the floor space has been we'll adapt
ed for the display of the stock, and
this aim has been furthered by the in
stallation of modern types of display
cases, shelving and other fixtures.
The store is so arranged that it is
not only convenient and ample but so
that it also presents a most attractive
appearance.
The personel of the firm remains
the same with the addition of one new
member. Miss Eleanor Aune, who
has been employed in Minneapolis for
the past three years, will return to
Redwood Falls to take charge of the
office work. Edwin Bollum who for
merly functioned as bookkeeper, will
now take up the work of salesman.
H. M. Aune and his son, Harold S.
Aune constitute the other members of
the working force. Mrs. H. M. Aune
is affiliated with the firm as vice
president but is not an active member
