Fine New School House is
Dedicated in Little Sank
Building is One of the Finest Rur-
al School Houses in Todd
Modern Equipment
(Long Prairie Leader)

The new school house in District
70, Little Sank, was dedicated Fri
day evening. There was a nice
program put on by the pupils un-
der the direction of the teacher,
Miss Elsie Boyer, an address by
Rudolph Lee and musical pro-
gram by a string quartette. The
audience was large; in fact, the
new school house was filled almost
to overlooking. After the pro-
gram lunch was served.
The new school house as one of
the most modern and up to date of
any rural school building in the
county. 1t has been built after APP
! proved designs and represents the
latest ideas in school architecture
and arrangements. The school
room itself is wonderfully well
| lighted, has hardwood floor, very
high ceiling with the necessary an
te-rooms and room for library. The
building has full basement with
high ceiling and the basement
room is admirably arranged for
public gatherings and as a place to
serve dinners and lunches. The
building is furnace heated and
coal is the fuel. There are indoor
toilets and numerous other con-
veniences.
The citizens of District 20 may
well feel proud of their handsome
and commodious school room.
The school board is composed of
the following: John Vickstrom,
Soren Sorenson and Jens Skordals-
void. The contractors who built
the building are Roy Boyer and
Peter Brakken. They certainly did
g good job.
The string quartette, which rem
dered music during the dedication
program, was made up of Oswald
and Alvin Klukken and John and
Rudolph Vickstrom. Orlando Pas
Ike gave a humorous reading which
was much enjoyed. Mr.. Lee in his
talk discussed what education has
done in the development of Amer
lea and dwelt upon the idea that if
knowledge is power anywhere it is
in the education Of boys and girls
to be farmers. In no industry have
modern conditions and methods
tended to introduce complexities so
much as it has in the business of

mends.
The bond question is simply q
question of whether the saving In
road maintenance will pay the M
terest on the bonds. Mr.. Babcock
says the saving will be more than
twice as great as the interest ON
the bonds. 1t is just a question:
whether we can get more roads for
the same money by the bond meth
cd than by the pay as you go
method, and Mr.. Babcock says wa
can.
We have made good progress IN
road improvement in Minnesota
but we have not kept pace with
traffic requirements. If we want
to cut down the 100000, 0O0
which we spend annually for motor
vehicles, the easiest way to do Il
is by spending a little more money
tor better highways.
