than 20 years ago, and was con-

Short funeral services were held
at the Gospel Hall Monday after

charge of the services. The build

for the large crowd who desired to

Mr.. Cornwell had realized for
some time that he could not get
well and was prepared for the final
summons. When he passed away
his wife and two sones were at his
bedside.
The business men of Willard
furnished fine floral tribute in
memory of the departed, and every
place of business in the village was
closed during the hours of service
to do him honor.
Early Tuesday morning the re-
mains, accompanied by the heart
stricken wife, sons, and close
friends, motored to Rochester,
Mimi, where short Chapel SER

ings. The last of October he COM
peted with between 400 and 500
other buttermakers at the National
meeting held at Mason City, Iowa,
and was declared sweepstakes win
ner. His competitors hailed from
Ii states. .
Mr.. Houske explained how the
tests were made. The judges scor-
ing the entries the entries could not
possibly know whose exhibit they
were working on. All tags of iden-
LITIGATION were removed and the en-
try was given a number. The name
of the entrant was known only to
the judges. Mr.. Houske stated that
in winning Mr.. Schriver was only
about 2.100 ahead of his nearest
competitor.
Mr.. Houske, in the course Of his
remarks, gave a very interesting
and educational description of how
butterfat was tested and followed
it through its manufacture until it
developed into the finished produce.

uary 80.
Equipment and fixtures in Nc
Nulty's barber shop and the Gaege-
mast dry cleaning establishment
next door were removed to a place
of safety, as it was believed that
the flames would spread to that
building. Some damage was done
to the fixtures in removing them,
but they have all been replaced and
business is again being conducted
as usual.
"The building occupied by the
Bishop store was the property of A.
G. Wedge. It was erected in 1914
by Grant Hartman, following dis
astrous fire on the night of Feb. 90
that same year, which totally de-
stroyed the Pure Food Store, then
operated by a firm composed of
Grant Hartman, U. S. G. Henry and
D. c. Fuller. Whether or not Mr..
Wedge will rebuild the building
has not been decided.
''The efficiency of the new water
system was given a convincing trial
during the fire. With three lines of
hose running for several hours, the
water in the storage tank did not
vary more than one-eighth of an
inch, declared H. E. Delaney, sup
erintendent of the pumping station,
who remained on duty during the
fire. Only one pump was in use,
pumping water into the tank and
the mains, and maintaining con-
slant pressure of 60 pounds, Mr..
Delaney says. The second pump
was not used, but was held in read
mess in case of emergency. Some
delay was experienced in getting
one stream of water on the fire, as

TANGLED FAMILY

A story of tangled kinship was
told to the Park Region Echo at
Alexandria last week by Mrs. John
Sward.
Mrs. Sward's son, Clarence Fors-
gren, married Ruth Eastman, and
her father, Albert Eastman, mar
ried Clarence's mothers mother,
Mrs. Josephine Allen. So Clarence's
grandmother is also his mother-in-
law is also his grandfather. His
mother is his aunt and also his sis
ter-in-law. He is brother-in-law to
his mother; his wife is his aunt,
and his brother-in-laws are his I'M
cles. Maybe there are other inter-
esting combinations, which you
may work out for yourself.

Recreation

That this town needs an awaken
ing is the spirit expressed by So
cial problems students. Last Fri
day Mr.. Olson held a open discus
sion, and everyone expressed his
opinions on the lack of recreation
to be found in Sank Centre. APP
parently the class thought Sank
Centre is deficient in providing suit
able recreational centers for the
young folk of this community. If
we had suitable entertainment at
home it would not be necessary to
seek it in surrounding towns. The
class is seriously considering the
sending of delegates to the city
council to ask for a few of the
much needed activities which are
now lacking.

The chemistry class has suddenly
started outlining. This is not re-

Gated to some of the teachers.
After the entertainment a short
pep fest was held. There was time
only for the Minnesota Rowser and
a few yells. The entertainment and
pep fest must have spurred the
boys on for they came back victor
ious.
Mr.. Beaumont predicted score
which was a victory for Sank Gen.
tire of points. He didn't strike the
right three points but he surely
seemed to know how evenly they
were matched.
The Senior High is looking for
ward to entertainments on Fridays

building. This Friday the Juniors
will present an entertainment.
A Senior class meeting was held
Monday, Jan. 30. Mr.. Kohl made

cided that standardized ring will
be selected which will be symbolic
of this school hereafter.
