Considerable agitation has been
astir in the community of late for a
greater school plant to accommodate
the ever-increasing school. This con-
dition has been brought about by bus
transportation and since the patrons
of the smaller schools understand the
advantages there has been a constant
clamor for larger quarters and in
connection Herewith has come the
suggestion that the town and commu-
nifty assist the school authorities
financially and then use the school
plant as a community center. This
idea is gaining in popularity and very
rightly so, for good auditorium is
much needed by both the school and
the community, and whose property is
the school plant if not that of the
community? This being the case, the
tublic has a right to it's use SO many
Ipersons argue.
Sugar Makers are Active.
Those of our peoplelwrho have sugar
groves have been qui e busy getting
their sap buckets il condition and
into the groves for use when the time
comes, which, apparently, is drawing
near A few of the early ones have
aready gathered small amounts of
ap and turned it into sugar or syrup.
Church Services.
Services in the churches next Sun
ay will be as follows: Catholic, at
|, 600 a. m. Methodist, Sabbath school
I, 1T 1000 a. M; Christian Endeavor at
$50 and worship at 1880 p. m. Re
formed, Sabbath school at 1000 a. M
Lutheran, Sabbath school at 1000 a.
m. All areN invited to any of these
services.
Ministerial Pension Drive.
The Lutheran congregation last
Sunday launched it's drive for its
quota toward the ministerial pension
fund of the United Lutheran church
for four million dollars. About one
third of the members were interviewed
and the response was good. The drive
will be continued until every member
has made a pledge.
A Freak Egg.
J. B. Miller, who resides just north
Of town, exhibited freak egg in town
on Tuesday. 1t was of large size,
in fact a double egg, for inside the

John Yommer Injured.
John Yommer, an aged shoemaker
of Grantsville, fell on the ice Tuesday
evening and I'M 1red himself to such
an extent that he was unable to rise.
He was picked up by Thomas Youn-
kin, who happened to be passing, and
who carried him 20 the home of his

Nomination of
Smith is Seen
In Early Vote

AS the Democratic National cOnven-
ton got under way Tuesday, at
Houston, Texas, indications were that
Governor AL Smith of New York would
be nominated for the presidency of
the United States on the first ballot,
and that his running mate likely
would be Senator Joseph T. Robinson
of Arkansas, according to the radio
report of the convention proceedings
through WCCO, Minneapolis.
Senator Robinson is permanent
chairman of the convention.
Although the choice of a running
mate for Governor Smith still re-
manned one of the uncertainties of
the convention, it was believed the
Smith-Robinson combination would be
vote getter. Robinson is a stalwart
dry, while Smith is an avowed wet.
Bowers is KeynOter.
The keynote speech of the conven-
ton was delivered by Claude G. Bow
ers, editorial writer of the New York
World, and temporary chairman of the
convention.
He cited the scandals of the last
two Republican administrations and
declared he was summoning the DEM
ocratic party to a war of eXtermin-
alton against privilege and pillage."
He warned the convention delegates
that the Republicans now are seek
ing to drug the conscience of the ma
ton with the doped soothing syrup of
a fake prosperity"
The keynoter accused the Repub-
lican party of having sent bureau
cratic agents swarming over the land
like the locusts of Egypt"

Senator Robinson, precipitated sew

SHORT CUT TO BRULE
ATTRACTING TOURISTS

The short cut road to Brule, sug-
gested recently by the Askov Amer
lean, is attracting tourists and reports
from Sandstone, are to the effect that
there have been many inquiries re-
garding the route.
One load of tourists who inquired at
Sandstone about the road, during the
rainy weather, were told that they
might better keep to the pavement.
However, the leader of the group said:
"Oh, well, we've got lots of time any,
way, so we'll take the county road
then besides we are sick and tired of
the pavement"
Attention was called to the proposed
route, with credit being given to the
Askov American, in this weeks re-
lease of highway news compiled by
C. M. Babcock's department.
