GRAND JURY REPORTSAND
 DISCHARGED
R e C o m m e n d ations Are Made, Several Directed
 to Legislature

The GranG Jury, having been in session for 10 days, during which time it handled 19 cases, returned 12 true bills and T not true bills, made it's report and was discharged from further duties yesterday after noon at 4 o'clock, by Judge J. w. Harding. The report submitted by Samuel Feldon, foreman, follows:
 We, the Grand Jury, hereby sub init the following report:
 We have been in session ten days, have examined Il witnesses, found 12 true bills, and seven not true bills.
 We have investigated the jail and the buildings connected herewith and find that the general condi- tions are excellent.
 We recommend that owing to the many law violations at Port Alex ander. a deputy marshal be sta- toned there during the period from April to October each year; and, there being no need of dep Iuty marshal at Port Alexander from october to April, it is recom- mended that this deputy marshal be transferred from Port Alexander to Hoonah for the winter months as there is population of about 375 people at Hoonah during these months.
 For Deputy Clerk We recommend that the Com missioner at Petersburg be made a deputy clerk of court.
 Owing to the fact that the vil- lage of Rake has a population of about 400 people and is still grow ling, we recommend that a deputy marshal be stationed at that place.
 As the deputy marshal at Peters burg has to be out of town for long periods on duties pertaining to his office, we recommend that a full-time guard be employed at that place, with authority to act as deputy marshal in the absence O.

 Flies by Chart
 MT. Ellis showed the charts used during the northward flight. It was coursed entirely from Seattle to Juneau before the start of the flight. Laid in blue ink lines was the compass course in degrees with the variation and deviation already computed
 At 20-minute intervals is line crossing the flight line showing ex- actly where the ship should be at the time intervals, flying at a given air speed. These points, MT. Ellis said, were crossed in less than 20 minutes when sailing north. About every l6 minutes we crossed the line due to our faster than calcu- lated air speed. MT. Ellis, until recently, has been teaching air navigation at the Navy school at Sand Point field Seattle. He also has several years of commercial flight navigation to his credit.
 To Be Navigator
 When the Washington Alaska Airways company enters the Alas ka field commercially, MT. Ellis will hold permanent navigator's berth on one of the ships.
 Jack Halloran, ships mechanic, working on his $8.000 power plant, a Pratt and Whitney radial motor of 425 horsepower, was this morn- ing absorbed more in the wonderful engine than in telling about him self.

 Like the navigator, Halloran is seemingly young for such a post. His is not the glamorous end of air exploits in the mind of the

Whether a boy keeps his left OF
his right foot on the ground while
saving in the carpenter shop at the
university high school OR whether in
using a microscope, one places the
left eye to the instrument, is of little
Importance to most people, but to
Miss Josephine LutZ, PIT Eighth
street S. E., instructor ir the art de-
partment at the university, it is a
vital question.
Miss Lutz is making a mural de-
coration in oil depicting the activities
and studies of students at the univer-
sity high school. The painting that
will be completed in time for open
ing of school in September is 80 feet
long and four feet high. In it are
boys and girls working on different
subjects. At one end a group of
students are shown in the shop, over
alls on, saving and cutting. Next
are boys and girls studying English,
science or a laguage. At the very
end, girls can be seen doing batik
dyeing and others are drawing.
This is only the first of a series of
three panels that Miss Lutz is going
to make to place in the library of
the school, until some day, when a
new building is put up in its place,
and special hall used for it. The
second panel which will be only 20
feet long and six feet high, will por-
tray work done in the home econom-
les department. The third mural
drawing, with an outdoor background
will show the outside activities of
students such as dramatics, athletics
and music. These panels Miss Lutz
expects to have completed next June.

Josephine Lutz Requires
Paintings To Be Accurate
Former Redwood Falls Girl as University Art
Instructor Sticks to Exactness as She
Works on Large Decoration

The idea for this sort of decoration
was originated by the principal, C.
w. Boardman. Each year for some
time the various graduating classes
have left certain sums of money to be
used for decorating the building. Mr.
Boardman instead of buying pictures
or ornaments, saved the money until
someone worked cut his plan of a
picture for the library that would
represent all the phases of high school
life. Miss Lutz submitted her idea
and it was accepted. Miss Florence
Smythe of the art department at the
high school has also worked on the
plan.
Students at University high have
posed many hours so that the artist
could make her boys and girls ex-
actly like high school students.
Among those who have helped in the
work by posing are Albert Kileen,
Gertrude Lowton, Harry Charlton
and William Hocg, all attending the
school. Rosalind MacBean, grad
uate of June, and Katherine Roda-
macher also set patiently while Miss
Lutz made her figures.
One day a boy was needed in a
hurry. Where to find good looking
chap who would spend time with Miss
Lutz in her studio down in the base
ment of the school was the question.
There just wasn't one around so Miss
June Constantine, who has boyish
bob consented to pose and thus saved
a good many minutes.
Miss Lutz is a former Redwood
Falls girl, having attended and grad
uated from the Redwood Falls High
school several years ago.

foodlights have been obtained for
lighting the track and infield fer the
night shows.
Three days of horse races, includ-
ing two harness races daily, are on

feature. Township booths, record

All Club boys and girls will make

There will be cooking school, and $50

The Cottonwood band will play

atom Saturday. All school children
will be admitted to the grounds free
on Thursday, but % cent charge
will be made at the grandstand. A
total of $50 in prizes is offered for
the children's sport program. The
Bendixen amusement company will
furnish carnival whoopee, and there
will be dancing afternoon and night
at the Blue Moon pavilion.

ing ostriches, wirewalkers, trained
dogs, tumblers, acrobats, clowns,

bolla tournament is also on the big
program.
The fireworks were made possible
by the Marshall Civic and Commerce
association, which has underwritten
the cost.
