This figure includes at least eight from the eight grade class Of this year. one pupil from the Mission school and one from Woodrow. A l few of this years students are leav- ing but additional new ones are moving into Seward during the sum- mer, it is said.
 The present high school quarters have been inadequate all through. this term for there is but IT desks as against 24 pupils. Plans are under way to have additional space and proper desk room for the coming year

WORK-A GOOD REMEDY

At a distance the school fracas in
Superior where several hundred high
school students are out on strike be-
cause Miss Dickinson, a teacher has
been dismissed, looks like too much
adoo about a matter that does not
warrant so much attention. Miss
Dickinson's dismissal may be serious
enough but it should be left to the
elders to settle-the school board
citizens and parents in general-and
not the youngsters. They can learn
to strike early enough without doing
it in high school age. They should
, have lived a generation or. two age
when there wasn't so much thought OF
attending school after the age of IL
when it was required to get out and
work at that time, and then they
would have other things to occupy
their minds than striking. 1t seems
that four years of good schooling af.
ter the grades, which is provided foi
them by their parents, is not appre.
ciated as much as it should be. Per.
haps too much like getting things
handed over on silver platter. Il
the striking youngsters were taken tt
Pine county to pick stones, brush an(
clear land, get up in the morning a
5 or o'clock to milk cows and the
like of that, it would likely be a goot
remedy.

A GOOD SHAKING UP

The standpat newspapers in the
state have either been rather quiet
about the Senator Schall investigation
or else brushed it aside with a few
remarks about it being out of place
and trivial matter The charges were
not proven against Mr.. Schall but the
Investigation brought out plenty of
evidence to open the eyes of the pub
lie, and should have a tendency to
make people more careful in their Sc
lection of public officials. No one
has any sympathy with A. N. Jacobs,
the schemer and trickster who would
stoop to most anything to further the
candidacy of the man whom he had
been associated with politically for
ten years-Senator Schall. Mr.. Schall
claims to know nothing about the at
tack Jacobs made on Magnus Johnson
in the Harpoon during the campaign
of 1924, says he did not know it was
being prepared for publication. But
did he make any public statement
regulating it at the time? Was he
not satisfied to let it have bad eff
feet on Mr.. JOhnSon'S~ candidacy?
Schall kept company with Jacobs long
enough to know him, but he took ad-
vantage of Jacobs undetermined politi-
cal dealings long enough and until
Jacobs had helped him to attain about
as high a political office as it is pos
sible to attain-that of United States
SenatOr-and then when the stencil
got too bad he threw him overheard
Schall knew all the time what Jacobs
was, and so he knew Jennings, the
bootlegger, Andy Rain and many
others that he was associated with
A man is judged by the company he
keeps and from what scources he &C.
cepts help. The investigation should
have a wholesome effect in helping
to clean up politics and make for
cleaner government. That whole
tribe should be through politically.
1t is charged that the political
party that lost in Senatorial election
of 1924 was only out to get the scalp
of Schall, being put out" on account
of losing. There may be some
truth in this. 1t is only human ma
ture to fight back when one has been
misrepresented. Whatever may be
said of Magnus Johnson he is never
theless more representative of the
state of Minnesota. He has not been
found mixed up in such company and
his general record and behavior is
good. Much credit is due State Sen
ator Victor Lawson of Willmar for
his bringing up the investigation and
his fearless attitude. More men of
his outstanding type in the Minnesota
legislature would be of benefit to the
state.

KEEP MINNESOTA
GREEN" is SLOGAN

This week-April "a to 3O-is
American Forest Week, as pro-
claimed by President Coolidge.
Following article on the Mime -
sofa Forest Service is furnished
by o. H. Smith, secretary of the
Conservation Department:
Waste and worthless land is worse
than dead loss. 1t is drag on the
community. Idle land leads to de-
cline in industry, wealth, population
and public revenue. 1t depresses
agriculture, and causes social retro
gression. Permanent prosperity must
be based on permanent resources fully
and wisely used.
Timber growing must be the main
stay of regions in which this repre-
sents the wisest use to which the bulk
of the land can be put. Our idle and
cut-over land now left wild and with
out care to produce what it will is
a reproach to our intelligence. Not
even so rich a country as the United
States can afford such waste.
Through the establishment and
maintenance of the Minnesota Forest
Service this commonwealth has taken
an advance step towards the preven-
tion of exhaustion of Minnesota's
timber supply. This organizations
activities cover quite thoroughly the
northern half of the state, and in all

obeyed the mandates of the referee.
In paving around for an opening
they slapped one another in the face
little occasionally. 1t sounded like
some real slaps but they are hardened
used to it, and it seems like just so
much fun to them. Once when they
were on their. feet and coming to-
gether for action their heads collided.
1t gave a regular thud, and echoed
through the hall but did not leave
even a scratch. Hill won the first
fall in 26 minutes and so seconds
with toe hold. Big John kind of
limped to his dressing room but was
none the worse for the experience
when he came out for the second
round.
The second stanza was shortened
little, Freberg winning it in II min
utes and As seconds with jack knife
hold. Freberg is quite polished
gentleman and combed what little
hair he has with a brush between
rounds. Asked why he did it as it
would soon be mussed up again he
said that he was catering to the
ladies. By the way he had his
bristles trimmed at the Askov barber
shop in the afternoon, and when some
one remarked that there was one man
in Askov who had the big Swede
where he could have handled him,
Freberg said, "oh, no, 1 did not take
any chances on getting shaved
These were dressing room converse
lions between falls and after the bat
tie.
Freberg likely thought that the
evenings entertainment had been
stretched out far enough and when he
and Hill came in for the third frame
the big Swede made quick work of it.
pinning Hill with short arm scissor
in 2 minutes and 5 seconds, winning
the fall and the match.
The crowd was not as large as had
been anticipated, the neighboring
towns being sparsely represented, but
the Legion boys were glad to have
the opportunity of sponsoring wrest-
ling match of this size at Askov.
The total receipts was approximately
$3.50 so there was not much in it for
the wrestlers but they accepted it
with good grace.
Freberg won over the Russian Lion,
Linow, in Minneapolis just two days
previous to his appearance in Askov.

probability its usefulness will be ex-
tended so that eventually the entire
state will be covered. This will be
brought about as soon as the farmer
realizes the value of his woodlots and
the necessity for their intelligent
management. The principal function
of the State Forest Service as now
organized is the prevention of fire in
the woods. In order to better take
care of this feature of work the nor
thern section of the state has been
divided into various ranger districts,
designated by numbers and in charge
of competent, trained woodsmen as
rangers. Each of these rangers is
supplied with number of regular pa
trolmen and these patrol forces are
augmented during the seasons of the
year when fires are anticipated. All
of the personnel are under the direc-
ton and control of the Commissioners
of Forestry and Fire Prevention with
central offices located in st. Paul
Satisfactory progress is being made
from year to year in the use of var
ious adjuncts such as lookout towers
telephone lines, brushed out trails
and portages, together with the ac-
QUESTION of mechanical equipment
for use in fire suppression.
All applicants for employment with
the State Forest Service are required
to demonstrate their fitness and ele-
mentary knowledge of the work by
taking an examination on subjects
covering the things with which he
must be more or less familiar. II
the applicant is employed, he is as
signed to temporary work until his
actual demonstrated ability warrants
his being placed as a permanent en-
ploye. The field men are required to
constantly patrol their sub-districts,
to consult with and advise settlers,
tourists, and others on the subject of
forestry and forest protection, and to
see that the laws with reference to
the handling of slashing, debris, etc.,
are complied with.

FREBERG AND BYLUND
WIN IN WRESTLING
Hill Won First Fall in Match
With Freberg.- Sampson is
Strong and Aggressive, but By
lund Has Experience.

The big wrestling show is now over
and the fans in these parts had the
pleasure of seeing the big Swede, John
Freberg, who is strong contender
for the worlds heavyweight cham
pionship in action. The three other
men on the card are also mat men
of enviable regulations. Wrestling is
sport that develops men physically
and to look at such men as Freberg
and Hill as well as Bylund and Samp-
son, when they are in action, is a
pleasure. They are in the prime of
condition, strong, alert and scientific.
The way those big 220 pound men
as timber as cats.
The first bout Saturday evening
was between the middleweights, Bob
by Bylund of Minneapolis, and John
ny Sampson of Portland, Oregon.
They were INTRODUCED by Ludwig
Madsen of Askov, local wrestler of
no mean ability, who refereed both
bouts to the entire satisfaction of all.
The middleweights were both given
good reception by the audience and
after introduction and instructions
hostilities started with strangle holds
barred. Toe holds and head locks
were used galore. Both were ag-
gressive, however it appeared that By
lund was on top most of the time.
Sampson is very strong but Bylund
appears to be better scienced in the
game. At Is minutes both were
working hard and this was also true
at the 20 minute point. At about
25 minutes Sampson broke away from
bad armlock when it appeared that
Bylund had him. The Mill City man
was very aggressive and his game
seemed to be to tire out his opponent.
He downed Sampson with a toe hold,
winning the first fall in 33 minutes
and 10 seconds.
The first round in the Bylund-
Sampson bout which went over half
an hour was likely the hardest fought
stanza during the entire evening.
After 10 minute rest the men came
together again and they went to it
hammer and tOngs," but Sampson
had likely been somewhat petered
out in the first round and did not
weather the storm so long. Bylund
secured the second fall in IA minutes
and 40 seconds with cradle hold,
winning the match. Upon leaving
the ring Sampson announced to the
crowd that Bylund is one of the
toughest men he has met. -.
Big Men Mix Lively.
After introductions by Referee Mad
sen which were roundly applauded,
the big men, John Freberg and Geo.
Hill, tried conclusions. They both
seemed very frisky and jumped
around like school boys, apparently
enjoying the encounter themselves.
Hill who is known as the Texas cow
boy wore a pleasant smile throughout
and by the way is a pretty good look
ing man. Sometimes they were on
their feet, sometimes down on the
mat, sometimes inside of the ring,
and sometimes outside, there was ac-
ton, and plenty of work for Referee
Madsen to keep the men inside of the
ropes. ,Madsen is a lightweight
wrestler and it was really amusing at
times to see him trying to pry the
big fellows into the ring. Ludwig said
afterwards that there was really no
use of trying to bulge them, because
they couldn't be moved by a light
ever, they were not stubborn but

No choice handyweight or clipped
lambs were on offer today, the best
on offer being, good 95 pound clipped
offerings which scored at SLABS or
nominally steady. Sales of fat ewes
carried a weak undertone with good
clipped sorts selling around $3.50.
