Baron Resvard Paid
Saturday Afternoon
Divided Equally Between Harold
Scanlon, of this City, and L.
Kinney, st. Cloud

Saturday afternoon Register of
Deeds and Mrs. Ray Drumming, &C.
companied by Miss Baron, former
county nurse, and L. Kinney, of st.
Cloud, came to Sank Centre to set
tie the reward offered by the fam
lily for the recovery Of the body of
the late John Baron, well known
st. Cloud citizen, drowned In Fairy
Lake the week previous.
In its story of the accident and
the finding Of the body last weeks
Herald stated that Harold and
"Tubby" Scanlon were in one boat
and young Kinney in another when
the body was discovered by Harold
Scanlon. This proved to be err
roneous. Howard Scanlon was in
the boat with young Kinney. In
vestigation by Mr.. Drumming salts
fed him beyond doubt that the re-
ward should be divided equally be-
tween Harold Scanlon and Kinney.
Settlement was made on this basis,
and was undoubtedly correct.
Miss Baron and Mr.. Drumming
paid the Herald tine compliment of
publishing the only true and cor
rect version of the accident from
the time Of the drowning on Fri
day, Aug. %, until the body was
found early Wednesday morning of
last week.
Mr.. Baron's funeral was held
from st. Mary's church, st. Cloud,
Friday morning, and was one of
the most largely attended ever held
in the Granite City.

Females Increase
More Than Males
Census Bureau Puts 1880 Ratio at
1O2.5 Men For Each 100
Women

A female population increasing
more rapidly than the male was re-
vealed by the Census Bureau.
Whereas in 1920 there were 104
men and boys to each 100 women
and girls, that sex ratio now
stands at 1925.
Even in virile Nevada, which
had rugged ratio Of 1884 men to
each 100 women ten years ago, the
males now outnumber by only
140.3 to 100. No other state even
appropriated the Nevada prepon.
derance, though Wyoming with
1898 and Montana with 120
brought echoes of the days when
the plains chiefly heard the cow
boy sing to restless herds.
Back in 1880 Montana had 256.6
males to each 100 females, Wyom-
ing had 213 and Nevada, POTS.
The District Of Columbia at the
other end Of the scale, had only
300 men to each 100 women, Mas
sachusettes had 95.1, Rhode Island,
95.2. Women outnumbered men in
eleven as against seven states,
counting the District Of Columbia,
in the last census. New Hampshire,
Connecticut, Tennesses and Louisi-
ana were added to a list, which
already included Massachusetts,,
Rhode Island, District of Columbia,
Georgia and Alabama.
However there were 1,499, IA
more males than females In the
122,775,46 population Of the en-
tire United States.
The native white population Of
native white parentage included
4s,010,145 males and 47,4s7, 655 fe-
males, 1O1.1 ratio as compared
with a 101.7 ratio ten years ago.
The negro population comprised
5,S55, $50 males and 6,035,474 fe-
males or 81 males per 100 females
as compared with 89.2 in 1920.
Chinese, Japanese, and Mexican
males far outnumber. females. The
Chinese. population was 22,58e
males to $3.50 females, a 6S6.8 ratio
The Japanese ration was 276.3, the
Mexican, 1855.
Sectionally the North had ap-
proximately the same sex ratio
as the country at large; the South
had a relatively high proportion
Of females; the West relatively
higher proportion Of males.
Northern negroes numbered
101 males per 100 females, Wes-
tern 104.1 males per 100 females
and southern ESQ males per 100
females, indicating in migration
Of negroes from the South, males
have been somewhat more numer-
GUS than females.

morning with the entire faculty on
hand and anxious to get the work
in hand started
AT a teachers meeting later in
the day Supt. Kohls outlined his
plan for the year. There will be
quite al radical change in some
lines of endeavor, it is understood.
During the course of his remarks
the faculty were convinced that
Mr.. Kohl was splendidly equipped
to maintain the high standard Of
the Sank Centre schools and will
give every cooperation.
The enrolment on opening day
was entirely satisfactory, 10 reg
istering In all departments. The
High School Enrolment was III;
the Junior High registered 100. The
peak of the enrolment in any of
the grades has not been reached.
Building superintendent Charles
Gray and his assistant. Tony Klein,
Jr., had the building in spick and
span shape for the opening Of
school.
Coach STUB" Olson has his foot
ball boys in toys. 1t is expected

which will insure the regulars
healthy scrimmage practice. A
schedule Of seven games will be
played this year. The following is
the enrolment in the Senior High,
