They left the dance about 1880
Sunday morning and started on the
return trip to Sank Centre. When
they left Round Prairie instead of
turning on Highway No. 4 they
kept straight ahead until they
reached the Long Prairie-Grey
Eagle road. There Is a very abrupt
turn at this intersection and the
presumption Is that the car was
travelling at high rate Of speed.
They crossed the road. went down
an embankment about five feet, the
coach striking the dirt wall with
such force that 1t was ended over
and landed on its top, completely
crushing It.
How the young people escaped in
slant death Is one Of the miracles
that cannot be fathomed.
Harold was the most severity in
jured of any of the occupants OF
the car. He was unable to move
after the accident and 1t was nearly
an hour before assistance was
brought to him. The young peo-
pie were taken to the Long Prairie
hospital by e. 3. LAWN, Charles
Kaum and Frek Minke, all farmers
living in the vicinity of where the
accident happened.
After they reached the hospital
an examination disclosed that Han
old had several broken ribs and
numerous bruists. Miss Sather suf-
fered broken collar bone. Miss
Tunrquist and Mr.. Dunn escaped
with minor bruises. Mr.. Dunn and
Miss Sather returned to Minneapo-
lis In the Ford Sunday evening,
Miss Turnquist remained with
Harold until Tuesday evening.
This Thursday morning, IL Har-
old Is able to set up In bed, x-Ray
pictures will be taken, after which

The physicians In charge have
informed Mr.. and Mrs. Cliff that

covery.
The car a complete wreck, was
brought to Sank Centre Sunday af-
ternoon.
For several years Harold has
been employed by the Archer-Dan-
lei Linseed Oil Company, of Mime
apolis, and was working himself
up to fine position. The COM
pany have got in touch with Mr..
and Mrs. Cliff, and expressed their
deepest sympathy and informed
them that Harold's job will be,
waiting for him when he RECEIVERS.

Seniors Score HedDily
In annual Class Play
"The Whole Towns Talking" Snap
py Comedy, Ideally Cast,
Splendidly Played

Friday evening, May 1, the Senior
Glass presented the comedy, 1.-THE
Whole Towns Talking" All the
characters were admirably suited to
their parts.
The general plot Is this: Mr..
senior partner In a paint
business, suddenly conceives the
idea that Chef Binney, his junior
partner, should marry his daughter,
Ethel. Mr.. Binney is the type of
that no woman likes. To
increase his good points, Mr.. Sim
mons creates a Irritation between
Mr.. Binney and a famous movie
star, As soon as 1t leaks out,
Ethel forgets Roger Shields, her
former fatuation, and becomes en-
gagged to Chef. They are sublimely
happy when Lefty Lythe, accom-
panied by her fiance, Donald Swift,
comes to town for a personal ap-
pearance. AS soon as Donald Swift
hears of Mr.. Binneys Irritation
with Miss Lythe, he becomes near
ly insane. OF course, Miss Lythe
knows nothing Of her Irritation with
Mr.. Binney, but, after hearing Of
1t from Mr.. Shields, she decides to
lead Mr.. Binney on and make be-
lieve that she loves him dearly. The
whole thing leads up to a fight in
the dark between Roger Shields,
Donald Swift and Binney. Swift
and Shields assail each other and
Chef escapes unframed. Lefty
Lythe then convinces her finance
OF her love for him. Chef Binney
and Ethel are married and every
thing Is all right.
The hero, Chef Einney was very
nicely played by Jack Hansen. In
the first act, Jack is marvellous as
the shiftless partner.
Harold Rogers was very funny in
his portrayal Of Mr.. Simmons. He
did excellent work In his part.
Jane Strebel was very comical
as Mrs. Simmons. She is noticed
throughout the play. All the char
acters did remarkable work.
The cast of characters follows.

viouS records. Tents and cots will be
rented to those desiring them and a
dining room will be operated by the
association with Mrs. l.. A. Houstman
Of Turtle Lake, in charge. Mrs.
Houstman will be assisted by her two

only two preachers connected with
the institution in an official capacity.
The balance of the officers are lay
men from four different church de-
nominations"

ment be called into session.
