Dick Syeetman Scores
Ace on Local Course
Sank Centre Defeats GlenwOOd
Golfers Is to in Match Sum
day Afternoon

Justice has finally come to local
golfers. A hole-in-one, that dream
of ultimate achievement of every
golfer, has proved as elusive to our
Main Street golfers as the proverb-
ial will-o'-the-wisp, or, to use a
sporting smile, as a penant for the
Minneapolis base ball team.
But the spell is broken. Dick
Sweetman has the honor of being
the first local golfer to score an
ace on the Main Street course. On
the eighth hole he sent his mashie
shot lao yards straight for the pin
and received the thrill of life
time when the ball disappeared in
the cup. Sherm Strong was Dicks
partner in the match with Drs.
Eberlin and Larson of the Glen.
wood team.
A hole-in-one, a flock of brides,
and pars galore on the part of the
Sank Centre players gave the Glen
wood players a legitimate alibi for
their Is to defeat, and sent them
home with the firm resolve to get
out and practice the mashie in an
ticipation of the return match at
Glenwood. Ed Peterson and H. A.
Falk shared medalist honors for
the afternoon with scores Of 70.

DISCOUNTED Knee
Causes Amputation
Erwin Quade, IL Years Old, Serious
ly Injured While Flowing with
Gang Last Thursday

Erwin Quade, IL year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Gust Quade, living
about 6 miles southwest of this
city, was seriously injured while
blowing last Thursday morning.
The lad was riding a gang pillow,
and it is thought that he hit a
rock which threw him to the
ground. His left leg was caught
in one of the wheels and he was
dragged about the field. His
brother, who was about a mile
away heard his cries and notified
the father, who imediately went
to the boys aid in an automobile.
The lads leg was in terrible
mangled condition and he was i'm
mediately brought to DR.. Moyni-
hans office for treatment, where it
was found that the leg had been
disjointed at the knee and that six
inches of the large bone above the
knee had been barred of flesh. He
was taken to hospital where the
injured member was amputated
about two inches above the knee.
Edwin's back and other parts of
his body were also badly bruised
from being dragged around the
field. He does not remember just
how the accident happened or just
how long he had been dragged
about. At the present time the
lad is getting along nicely and DR..
Moynihan says he will recover full
ly. It was a terrible accident and
the many friends of the Quade
family sympathize with the young
lad in his affliction.

St. Benedicts to Send
Six Nuns to China
Missionary Talks at College Mon
day-TwO Chinese Girls to
Study There

The Rev. Francis Clougherty, o.
S. B., for the past 10 years mis-
sionary in China, Aug. 26, is visit
ing st. Benedicts college and has
effected arrangements for six
sisters to be sent from st. Joseph
to China for the purpose of or
ganizing a girls school there and
remaining to conduct it. Two Chi
nese girls will this year attend st.
Benedicts college.
The Rev. Clougherty was one of
the organizers of the University of
Pekin, China, of which institution
he is representative. Because of
the belief that nuns as well as
priests are needed in China for
Catholic missionary work, he was
called to Rome recently and there
commissioned to secure sisters of
the order of st. Benedict to begin
another school in the eastern
country.
st. Benedicts is the first college
he has visited for that reason.
Monday morning in the presence
of Bishop Busch he delivered an
address, to the sisters in the college
auditorium about his work and
what would be expected of those
who volunteered and were permit
ted to undertake the work. The
sisters will have to learn the Chi
nese language. The six who are
selected will leave next year.
Two Chinese girls seeking high
er education will attend st. Bene-
diets college this year to major in
English.

Remodel Local Harland
Flour and Feed Mill
Add New Roller Mill to Care for
Course Ground Feeds-COm-
pletely MOdernized

Workmen are at the present time
engaged in remodeling the feed
mill of the Harland Flour and
Feed Co., formerly the Eyler mill,
near the Great Northern depot.
Chas. Parkinson, manager of the
local branch, stated to the Herald
reporter that the plant is being
given a general overhauling and
that it will be made modern in
every detail.
The mill has been raised so that
the ground feed is taken out in a
conveyor, instead of the.old way of
elevating it.
Among the new machinery being
installed is roller mill, so that
course as well as fine grinding may
be taken care of. Up to the pres
ent time the mill has been able to
only do fine grinding, but the de-
mand for course ground feeds has
been so insistent that the company
was forced to add the new machine
It is expected that the work will
be completed in the course of a
week or so.

MR.. AND MRS. F. C. LEE
RETURN FROM TOUR

Mr.. and Mrs. F. C. Lee returned
Monday from an extended auto
tour to the West Coast. They left
from this city about four months
ago, driving through Iowa. In that
state they visited the old home of
Mr.. Lee, which is located in Ma
haska County. He had not seen
the place for fifty years and found
the old house still standing. Their
trip then took them through Mis-
souri,, Kansas, Colorado, New Mex
leo, Arizona, Old Mexico, Californ-
ia, Catalina Island. On the return
trip they visited points of interest
in Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
Yellowstone National
Park in Wyoming and North Da-
kota. The trip comprised 1904
miles, and was made in their Ford.
Two punctures and one new bolt
was all the expense of, repairs suf-
fered on the tour. They visited
with their son, Mr.. and Mrs. Cecil

Lumber Arrives for
Brooten Fair Grounds
Volunteer Assistants and Carpen-
tiers to be in Midst of Work
Before Long

Lumber material for the new
Brooten Fair buildings, purchased
thru a local lumber firm, but ship
ped from the west coast, arrived
Sunday. The same has been haul
ed to the fair grounds and work
on the erections of these structures
has been started.
The largest and most important
of these buildings is the Commun-
ity Fair Auditorium, which is to
replace the large tent in use here
tofore. It will cover a floor space
of 50x120 feet with extension wings
of ten feet on either side of the
entrance for refreshment stands.
The main purpose of this building
is to accommodate the crowds dur
ing the fair programs, but it will
also be suitable for use as a COM
munity building for large gather
ings should the need ever arise
during warm weather months. It
will be built with open sides, equip
ped, however, with shutters which
can be closed when desired. Pro-
visions for stage of ample size
will be made, and when the final
decorations and lighting effects
have been completed, the place will
without doubt, present a most
inviting appearance.
The other buildings to be erected
are a poultry house and a struc-
ture 30x40 feet for the exhibits of
agricultural and fancy work dis
plays.
Local business men and residents
have agreed to contribute from one
to several days labor on these
buildings, thus reducing the con-
struction cost to a minimum.
The Brooten Community Fair
will be held this year on September
rs, 26, and 81, and according to
present indications will be equal to
the slogan adopted following the
first fair six years ago: Bigger
and Better Than Ever"
The premium list, hundreds of
copies of which are now in the
making at The Review office, will
offer the same liberal prizes as

ADEASTROUS
FIRE AT PADUA
Two Buildings and General
Merchandise Stock Total
ly Destroyed
HEAT WAS TERRIFIC
Local Department Responds
to Call-Directed Efforts
to Save Hall

A disastrous fire occurred at
Padua, IA miles southwest of this
city, Sunday afternoon when the
store building and its contents and
the building next to it were total
ly destroyed.
The alarm was sent to this city
at about two o'clock and the local
department responded immediate
ly. Although the run was made
in record time, the department ar
rived tee late to save the build
ings, which at that time were total
ly enveloped in flames. The firemen
devoted their work to the saving
of the hall, which caught fire on
the roof several times.
The fire started in the store build
ing occupied by Mr.. Wamsley, its
origin being unknown. At the time
of discovery it was already beyond
control. The store building was
the property of Mike Theisen,
while the other building, which
was formerly used as a saloon,
was owned by the Minneapolis
Brewing Co. The latter was va
cant at the time.
Besides the general merchandise
Stock Mr.. Wamsley also lost $50
in money. The loss is estimated at
from $4,000 to $1,000 for both
stock and buildings.
Water was hauled from the
creamery to be used in the booster
tank to save the town hall, how
ever, no possible effort could have
saved either of the other struct-
ures. The heat from the fire was
terrific and hampered the men in
their work
In conversation with several
farmers following, the fire it was
found that they feel the need of a
store in Padua. and expressed their
opinion that it would probably be
rebuilt.
A large number Of folks from
this city followed the fire truck to
Fsdua. This was the third con-
secutive Sunday that the depart
ment was called out. The Sunday
before they were also called to
Padua to aid in saving the build
ings on the Gallagher farm.

out the state.
Sank Centre children are fortu-
nate in their opportunities for ed
ucation and our citizens may well
have a justifiable pride in the
school system which they have pro-
vided. Each year with the OPEN
ing of school the community seems
to take on a new activity. Once
more we welcome the faculty to

GEO. STEINER FAMILY
RETURN FROM WEST

Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Steiner and
daughter, Janet, returned Sunday
evening from a four weeks trip to
the Pacific Coast, points in Alaska
and three and one-half day stay
in the Yellowstone National Park.
They left this city July 31st, and
made stops on the West Coast in
Portland, Ore, Spokane, Long
view, Tacoma, and Seattle, Wash.
On their return trip they visited
with Mrs. Steiner's sister at Minot,
N. D., and with Mr.. Steiner's sister
at Rudyard, Montana.
Mr.. and Mrs Steiner and daugh-
ter enjoyed a nine day boat trip to
Alaska, taking passage on the S. S.

400 passengers on board, with a
crew of 1872. Stops were made at
Sitka, Skagway, Wrangell and

tai of Alaska.

One of the most interesting sights
was the large Taku Glacier where
the boat stopped for one hour 1t
is massive piece of ice towering
200 feet above the water, with a
blue green color. Taku Glacier is
at the head of Taku inlet, thirty
miles from Juneau. It is one of
the most picturesque of the ice
fields of the north. 1t advances at
the rate of eight feet per day and
deposits in the deep water chan
mel an ice mass equivalent to its
advance. One of the peculiar fea-
lures of the glacier is that it pre-
sents the same front from year to
year.
On their return home they visit
ed Yellowstone National Park,
where they saw many of natures
wonders. For three and one-half
days they sojourned there walking
among the geysers, of which Old
Faithful is the most interesting.
At Belleton at the west end of

large forest fire. Mr.. Steiner stat
