Todd County Old Settlers
Plan Adequate Building
Hope to Erect Permanent Head
quarters for Their Annual
Meetings in August

If plans which were put under
way Monday materialize, the Todd
County Old Settlers Historical
society organized at the Todd coun-
ty fair last August, is to have a
permanent home, one typifying the
earlier days and one in which ev-
cry member of the association will
take justifiable pride.
At a meeting of the officers and
directors Of the society, at which
George johnson, of Clarissa, pres.
ident, Peter Wester, of Clarissa,
vice president, Raymond "A. Lee,
of Long Prairie, secretary, and Di-
rectors George Sarver, of Bertha,
A. j. Gibson, of Bruce township,
and Louis Laugeson, of Long
Prairie, were present, the matter
of erection of log cabin on the
Todd county fair grounds was tax
en- up, the building to be erected
by the old settlers and to be used
exclusively by them as their head
quarters during each succeeding
fair, at which times the annual
meetings of the society are held.
A building committee was NAM
ed and is now engaged in working
out the architectural details, look
ing about for a place where suit
able pine logs may be secured and
locating someone experienced in
the building Of log cabins. 1t is
planned to have the building of
pioneer type, yet of such perman-
ency that it will remain for scores
OF years as a monument to the
hardy men and women who came
to Minnesota in the early days and
remained to change this section
from a vast hard pine wilderness
into the fertile farming region of
the present day.
Details of financing the building.
while not completely worked out,
provide for the raising of a popu.
lar subscription fund. 1t has been
suggested that tne names of all
those who donate funds toward
erection of the building be inscrib-
ed on memorial tablet which will
be hung on the interior of the
building, each name to be OH indi-
vidual plates of uniform size and
material, much the same as are
the names of Long Prairie soldiers
inscribed on the tablets at the To-
cal postoffice.
Undoubtedly the people of the
county will be found more than
willing to contribute literally to
the erection of this permanent
home for our old settlers society,
which, while still in its infancy, is
already one of goodly numbers.
Such a building on the fair grounds
will afford old settlers an ideal

place in which to gather at fair time
for exchange Of "reminiscences and
for the greeting of those who will
come from all sections for the an
nual gatherings of the society.
The Leader sincerely hopes that
the plans now under way may go
forward to an early and certain
completion and that the building
may be ready for dedication at the
1929 Todd county fair.-Long

Coughing is usually due to caus-

Unlike most cough medicines,
Thoxine contains no chloroform,
