ASKOV SCHOOL
IN FULL SWING
Many Improvements and Changes are
In Evidence.-P..T. A. Meets
September 20.

In accordance with statistics at the
public school in Askov, up to last
night, there is enrolled in the grades
total of 221 pupils. In the high
school department there are 25 fresh
men, 10 sOphomores, 13 juniors, and
seniors; a total of ga, which is a
considerable increase over last year.
With the elimination of one grade
teacher this year, there is also elm
mated the use of the small frame
building south of the main building,
which is an additional saving in fuel,
labor and confusion.
A new plan of arrangement has
been worked out by Superintendent H.
A. Petersen and same will be put into
effect commencing next week. The
equipment in the two combination
rooms (where the PIT. A. meetings
were heidi will be moved down into
the large reimbursement room which
was formerly used for domestic
science. The PIT. A. meetings will be
held in this large room and will nice
ly accommodate at least a hundred
people. With this change it is hoped
that many more will avail themselves
of coming to these meetings in social
mingling with the various instructors.
The Danish department will be shift
ed to one of the upper floors and that
room will be used for science. These
and other changes will be made Fri
day evening and Saturday and for
that reason it was considered advis-
able to delay the first PIT. A. meeting
until Friday. Sept 20, when it can be
held in the new high school depart
ment.
The bus schedules are working out
quite well so far and will likely be
published next week.
Several improvements on the play
grounds are also under consideration
and will be made in the very near
future
All parents are urged to visit the
school and are sincerely welcome and
at any rate plan to attend the first
PIT. A. meeting September 20 as
there will be talks that evening which
will interest all the parents, and there
will be plenty of space in the new
room for the meeting.

as Mr.. Frederiksen says, this is in
the future, but we hope to do it."
One main attraction of the garden
is flat stone with fairly natural
relief form of Denmark, the native land

stone, one familiar with the various
most trace them out on the surface.
This stone was found in it's natural
state on the Frederiksen farm.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frederiksen have
spent many laborious and happy hours
in making and planting the garden,
but considering the success of it and
the picturesqueness, they are many
times repaid for their labors.

new MANGANESE
PROCESS TO OPEN
MONTANA FIELDS

Washington, D. c., Sept. 25.-
New processes of recovering man
ganese from low grade ores, which
were said to make possible COM
mercial utilization of millions of
tons" of ore formerly considered
unfit, were demonstrated before
the closing session of the second
annual convention of the American
Manganese Producers Association.
A message from Senator Oddie
of Nevada, assuring the convention
he will resume the fight vigor-
ously" for an increased duty on
imported ores, particularly those
of low grades, was read to the
body by his secretary.
One new process, described by
Wilson Bradley, president of the
Bradley-Fitch company of Deer
wood was accepted by the dele
gates as exploding the former
theory that siliceous iron ores
could not be utilized. He described
raising manganese contents of ores
by means of treating it with Ii
quid ammonium sulphate. F. b.
Devaney and D. Bruce Clemmer of
the United States bureau of mines
experimental station at Rolla, Mo-,
demonstrated with laboratory
equipment the possibility of rails
ing manganese content by a "flo-
tation" process which was explain
ed as one of removing undesirable
constituents by immersing ore in
flyids made up of certain tested
combination.

FIFTEEN YEAR OLD.
YOUTH DRUNK With.
MOONSHINE LIQUOR

Wolf Point.-The "Noble Exper1-
ment" scored another triumph
here last week when a 15-year-oid
lad was seen staggering home fill
ed to the apple with moonshine IL
quor. The witness of the sorry
spectacle was Judge Gordon who
followed The boy to his residence.
The Judge then went and brought
County Attorney Foor and deputy
Seglias.
They all heard the boys remarks
as he writhed in pain. AS he toss
ed about on the bed muttering, he
beat against the wall win his fists
and said, "I'll kill him, I'll kill
him." A neighbor woman asked
who he was going to kill and he
said cray Babcock." County At
torney Foor signed a complaint
against BabcOck and he was ar
rested.
The hearing was held before
Judge Gordon at the court house.
Several witnesses testified to the
drunken condition of the boy. A
pint bottle about a third full was
introduced as evidence and identi-
fled as the one that was taken
from The boy Saturday evening.
On the Stand.
Then the boy himself was called
to the stand. To look at him one
would say that he was about IL or
13, but he gave his age as fifteen.
He's in the 4th grade, though he
said he had been in school since
he was nine. He was at the Bah
cock place several lines last Sat-
urday he stated. The first time he
sold Babcock four empty bottles,
one pint and three half pints. 1t
seems there is a regular market
for bottles there. Pints are worth
a nickel and halfpints bring 10
cents for three. After spending
the money he and his pal went
back to the joint and asked Bah
cock if he didn't want any beer
bottles. He didn't, neither did Earl
Stringer, who was there at the
time. 1t seems they didn't have
any seals on hand, or something of
the sort, so they weren't in need
of any beer bot les that day.
Got Three Pints
Then the kids went into an old
shack or shed right back of the
Babcock place and got three pints
of what they called whiskey. They
seemed to know just where to look
for The bottles. There was a pile
of chips and hay in one corner.
Underneath it was a loose board
and all they had to do was to
push the hay aside, lift up the
board, and there was the "whfs-

BRITAIN RESUMES.
RELATIONS WITH.
THE SOVIET UNION

Washington, d. c., Oct. L.
News of the agreement between
Great Britain and the Soviet Union
for immediate resumption of diplo-
matte relations was received in the
Capitol wi h mingled JOY and re-
gret.
Those who for several years urg-
ed the recognition of the Labor Re
publc-for business reasons OF
course expressed the belief that
the agreement reached between
Arthur Henderson, British Foreign
Secretary and M. Dovgalevsky, So
Wet Commissioner, would give a
great impetus to the growing
movement for recognition here. On
the other hand, the die-hard anti
reds, included among whom are the
troglodytes of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, are crashing
their teeth with rage and ready 10
charge the conservative British La
Dor Party government with Bolshe-
vism.
The fact of the matter is that
American business now realizes
hat it committed a serious error
when it fell for the propaganda of
the paytriotic confidence men who
have been deluging the country for
years with fantastic tales of i'm
minent Soviet collapse. Disliking
the principle on which the Soviet
Union is based, American business
interests now realize that the So
Wet Government is stable and that
while its economy is being rapidly
built up on a Socialist basis, there
is money to be made in trading
with it and the business man would
trade with the devil for profit.
Won on All Points
The Soviet Government got the
best of the deal in the negotiations
with Britain. They held out for
the resumption of diplomatic rela-
tons first, all points of difference
to be settled later. In the first
conference Britain demanded a
guarantee that the Soviet Union
would refrain from carrying on
propaganda for the freedom of In
dia and other countries under the
British yoke, before resuming re-
lations. This the Soviet flatly re-
fused, declaring that it was in SYM
pathy with all oppressed peoples.
The agreement is subject 10 the
approval of the house of commons.
This is almost assured, since all
parties in Great Britain are agreed
that Britain needs the trade.

key" The boys took three bottles
and went out and sold Two of them
for dollar apiece. They divided
the money. Then the 15-year-old
lad made some sort of settlement
with the 13-year-old and kept the
third bottle for himself, And it was
on par, of the contents of that
bottle that re got drunk, so drunk
that he fell down a few times on
the way home, and then was
deathly sick when he got there.
