Harald Petersen returned from
Tyler last week. When he left there
the school board was still receiving

counted the applications, but now
they have resorted to measuring them
in a bushel basket. Mr.. Petersen's
excellent two-year record here as well
as at Pipestone sould place his ap-
plication at the head of the list when

The one-act Danish play Charles
Tante," presented Friday evening in
the D. B. S. hall under auspices of the
local Danish Brotherhood lodge, was
we'll attended and appreciated from
start to finish, judging from the lib
eral applause that was given the play
ers both during the play and at the
finish. The three major parts car
ried by Carl Dixen, Henry Simons-
gard and Mogens Tuxen were pre-
sented in excellent manner and kept
the audience laughing and applaud
ing. The lesser parts were equally
we'll presented by Miss Anna Thorn
sen, Miss Eline Clausen, Mrs. Svend
Petersen, Richard Buck, and Carl Jo-
hansen. The poor roads kept the at
tendance down to about $50 and the
committee in charge reports that they
have numerous requests for second
performance. This is being given con-
sideration, and if possible, then it will
be arranged.
