HINCKLEY STAGES A
FLAG TOURNAMENT

George Goltz, Hinckley black
smith, won the flag handicap golf
tournament sponsored Sunday by
the Hinckley Golf Club, of which
DR.. H. G. Swennes is president,
and r. A. Nelson is secretary
treasurer. Supt. L. w. Brown won
the BOBBY prize or whatever 1t is
called when a man finishes con-
test on the very opposite end of
the scoring from the winner.
The contest of the tournament
was to see who could get the
farthest toward the end of Is holes
of play with a given number of
strokes allotted each one after his
average ability at the game had
been ascertained by figuring a
handicap. Mr.. Goltz, the winner,
had five strokes to go when he had
finished the eighteen, while Mr..
Brown either became tired Of car
rying his flag, or he lost it, or
he ran out of strokes on the 14th
green for that is where he left it,
and then went on serenely to fin
ish the match as though he were
shooting sub-par golf.
The tournament, in which about
20 took part, was interesting and
the Hinckley men spent very So
ciable morning.

GIRL SPRAYED WITH
BURNING GASOLINE

Nine year old Dolores Johnson of
Park Rapids, made a human torch
in a terrible accident at the Johnson
home there, died several hours later
as result of her burns. A pan of gas
oline, set in pan of hot water to be
heated for cleaning clothes, exploded
and caught fire. Melvin Johnson,
Dolores father, grabbed the pan and
started out the back door with it,
but the flames, binding him and
burning his hands, compelled him to
drop it. Dolores, and Mrs. Wallace
Johnson, sister-in-law, were seated
directly in his path and were sprayed
with the flaming liquid Followed by
Melvin Johnson, Mrs. johnson rushed
to the river and jumped in. No one
realized that Dolores had been
burned until they returned and found
her stretched on the ground. She
was rushed to the hospital, but died
about eight hours later. Mrs. john

WEDDING May
FEATURE FAIR
Three Couples Have Been
United at Annual EX-
hibit in Past.
Fair Dates Have Been Set
for August IL, Is
and 10.

The management of the Pine County
Fair association broadcasts to the
public that a couple is wanted to be
married at the annual fair which
will take place this year on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday, August IL,
Is and 10. The wedding will be held
on Saturday evening as usual, and
will take place in front of the grand
stand with all the dignity and style
attending a formal ceremony.
The fair association will give SIS
cash present to the wedding couple
and merchants of Pine City will pre-
sent many beautiful presents to the
newlyweds.
Any couple who would care to be
married at the fair should see w. S.
McEachern, secretary, at Pine City as
ments can be made we'll in advance
and all the presents gathered up.
This will be the fourth wedding
to be staged at the Pine County Fair
in recent years. In 1929, the we'd
ding couple were Everett Work and
Thelma Spicer of Sandstone, and the
ceremony was performed by the Rev.
Claude Spicer of Clearwater, uncle
of the bride. In 1880, Richard THE
man and Mabel Peil of Pine City,
were united in marriage, the cere-
mony being performed by the Rev.
Carl Steging, pastor of the Pine City
Lutheran church. Last year, Geo.
Petry of Hinckley, and Grace Giese
of Pine lake, were married at the
fair with the Rev. Steging officiating.
These weddings, being formal, were
very pretty affairs, with the attend
ants, ring bearers, etc. The platform
was decorated with flowers for the
occasion and the weddings took place
under a flood of lights, before thou
sands of people who had turned out
to witness these happy events.
The fair management plans to make
the wedding this year even more
elaborate and attractive. In addition
to the S25 cash present given by the
fair, there will be many beautiful and
useful presents given by merchants.
This will be one opportunity for some
couple to get the jump on "old man
depression" in starting on their ma
trimonial journey.
Board Meets Friday.
The fair board will meet at the
court house w-Friday-eve-
ming when definite plans will be made
for the 1888 fair. The fair will un-
doubtedly be operated along the same
lines as last year with free admis-
sion to the grounds. Members of the
fair board are Joseph Petschel, w. S.
McEachern, Phil Silesky, George Dorr,
Roy Carlson, W. A. Sauser, Ben Boo,
Andrew P. Edin, Arvid Swanson, Bert
Beavers and A. E. Eddy. Mr.. Petsche1
is president of the fair association
this year.

Windemere Woman Passes Away Fol.

Burial Wednesday.

Ida NJ Clickner, wife of John Click
ner of Windemere township, passed
away at 6:15 a. m. Monday, July II,
at the home of her brother, G. S,
Pulling in Windemere township. She
was, at the time of her death, 6S
years, months and 6 days of age
and had been seriously ill with can
Ger for the past three months.
Mrs. Clickner was born in Fulton
county, New York state and moved to
South Dakota with her parents when
but young lady. She was married
to John Clickner on Oct. IL, 1891, and
they lived in that state for 81 years
coming to Pine county 10 years ago
where they have resided since.
Besides her husband she is sur
vived by one sister, Mrs. Irwin Bar

all paid out of the earnings of the
company. Besides, dividends have
been declared each year since 1923,
which go into the pockets of the pa
irons and not into the exchequer OF
Wall Street group, as is the case
with the Tri-State and other trust
owned companies.
I want to repeat that what the
people of this country need is public
ownership of the telephone system
as well as of all public utilities.
Only by such a method can real re-
lief be had from the extortions of
these companies. In the meantime
let us hope that Attorney General
Peterson may be successful in his
demands that telephone rates at st.
Paul and other cities be reduced ac-
cording to the recommendation made
by Mr.. Jurgensen.
There are other differences that
might be noted but they cannot be
discussed here. In later article 1
am going to discuss more fully the
Garden Valley Telephone company
and what that company has done for
its patrons in cities, villages and
rural communities Of the Northwest
ern counties Of the state.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
By GEORG STRANDvOLD

At the moment of writing the Con
ference International econom1que Ell
monetaire"-the official name OF the
economic and monetary international
conference in LOndon-has accom-
plished precisely nothing. 1t may be
that a few face-saving decisions Will
be made during the next few days
but they will be devoid of actual i'm
portance since it has been tacltly
agreed to avoid all of the problems
that are really fundamental, and one
week from today the conference Will
adjourn indefinitely. 1t is true tina,
some persons hope it will be possible
TO reconvene the conference in Sep
TENDER and October, but indications
are that it will not.
No one specific factor can be given
as the cause of the disaster OF the
London conference; there are many
circumstances which, combined, con-
tributed to the Illustration of the
hopes raised by the news that such
conference was to take place.
Stubborn Attitudes.
First of all, there was lack Of
mutual confidence; no one nation
trusted any other, and every nation
looked out for its own precious in
terests.
Then, there was the stubborn fight
between the European gold nations
insisting on immediate and temper
airy sterilization of international ex
change, and the nations led by the
United States demanding that first Of
all the problem of increasing com
modify prices and expanding employ
ment be solved. There were here two
Numerically opposed schools o.
thought between which reconciliation
proved impossible.
Apparently the only things tina
may be salvaged from the wreck o
the conference will be-possibly-a1

''The State Board of Grain Appeals

LIGHTNING STRIKES
AND BURNS A BARN

During the severe wind and cleo

the barn on the Mrs. A. Van Reese
farm north of Rutledge, was struck
by lightning and burned to the
ground. A quantity of good hay which
was stored in the barn together with
two sets of harness was destroyed by
the flames. Fortunately no cattle or
horses were in the barn at the time.
Only through the hard work of Dave
Van Reese, Mr.. Kepler and son, Ed,
was the home saved from the flames.
The loss was heavy.

COUNTY HAS EXACTLY
800 CATTLE HERDS
Figures Given Out by State Livestock
Sanitary Board After Official
Count Following T. B. Test.

After official count by the State
Livestock Sanitary Board it was found
that Pine county has $3.50 herds of
cattle, instead of 1881 herds as first
reported just following the area test
for tuberculosis in cattle two weeks
ago. After the "a veterinarians made
their official report at the central
office in St. Paul it was discovered
that two or more herds in some cases
combined to make one herd, or that
is they were passared together and
as such, under rules of the State Live
stock Sanitary Board, count as one
herd.
The 81 herds in which reactors
were found will be retested until
cleaned up. Only 81 cattle reacted
in the entire county of Pine.
A letter written by Chas. E. Cot
ton, secretary and executive officer
of the State Livestock Sanitary Board,
to Andrew P. Edin, auditor of Pine
county, and dated at st. Paul July 10,
1888, reads as follows:
