FOR KIDNAPPED
+ EVANGELIST

GOLDSBORO. N. c., Aug. II
,U.N.SO.-Sheriff's officers and
agents of the Department Of JUS
aice launched an investigation
over several States today, in an
effort to locate the Rev. R. H.
Askew, GoldSboro evangelist who
Is supposed to have been kidnapped
near here Tuesday.
The Rev. ASkeW left this city to
conduct services at Smlthtleld, 20
miles away. He did not return.
On Wednesday his wife received
an anonymous letter, mailed here
the night before. 1t said:
"Have $4,000 in cash at once
or you will never see your hus-
band alive again. Instructions
will follow"
Nothing has been heard from
the supposed kidnap gang since.
Sheriff Paul Garrison told In
ternational News Service today,
no important evidence had yet
been discovered, and expressed
doubt the Evangelist would be To-
Gated Immediately.
Rev. Askew was said to have
been seen driving along the Smith
field highway two hours after
leaving here. 1t was the last re-
port made on his whereabouts.
The Evangelist was man Of
moderate means, and authorities
could see no reason why kidnapers
should hope to collect a large
ransom for his return.

loans like those of the modernlza-
ton campaign are not to be found
in most banks; they must create
new departments, hire new person
mel and otherwise change their
basic system to handle the loans.
In the second place, the return
to many banks on the loans will
be less than they have been in
the habit of charging for per-
sonal loans which, if made, were
usually given to old depoSitorS or
others to whom the bank wished
to grant a favor. The interest
rate and other charges on the
modernization loans cannot be
more than SIS for every $500 on
an annual basis.
At present, only National banks,
State banks and trust companies,
industrial banks, and others
legally able to lend without Sc
curity are eligible to grant mod
ernization loans. The Federal
Housing Administration expects
to announce within a short time
the regulations whereby financial
institutions that must lend on
mortgage security, like building
and loan associations and savings
banks, may participate in the
drive.
First Loan Typical
The first of the modernization
loans to be granted is probably
typical of the thousands now
being made in all parts Of the
nation. 1t was given to Miss
Alma McCrum, of the 1900 block

Willow River School Notes

School will open Monday, Labor
to eleven for the purpose of enroll
ment. All buses will operate on that
day. Grade pupils as well as high
school students will please enroll at
that time so that regular classes will
be held on schedule Tuesday. High
school students may enroll Saturday,
Sept. 1st-9 a. m. to IL a. M, if they
wish. In order to avoid the rush on
Monday, most high school students
should aim to enroll Saturday. We
expect over $50 high school students
again this year. High school grad
yates are also welcome to return for
more work.
Like many other consolidated
schools are now doing, we are en-
ploying several bus drivers who live
outside of our own school district.
We hope that all the local people will
appreciate the necessity of doing this.
These outside" drivers are able to
handle our students within our dis
trict as cheaply as local drivers have
been able to handle them, and at the
same time each outside" driver is
able to pick up twelve to twenty non
resident high school students. These
high school students pay less than
street car fare for their transporta-
ton and thus have high school OPP
portunities at home, at very low
cost. On the other hand our school
greatly benefits by this plan through
the state aids, (high school tuition,
supplemental, and apportionment
aids). Thus we are not only able
to serve a large territory, but we
also increase our state aids. With
this increase we have been able to
equip our high school so as to &C
commodate over 100 high school stu
dents, and at the same time cut our
taxes to the very minimum allowed
by law in order to qualify for the
supplemental aids. Everyone in this
whole territory should cooperate in
every way to help make this plan
permanent success and arrangement,
that so greatly benefits this whole
territory.
The arrangement of buses are as
follows: /, 2 and 3-the three east
routes are exactly the same as last
year; 4-Oscar Peterson picks up all
pupils along the state highway north
OF the school; 5-the Joe Stepan route
is the same as last year; 6-Mr. Bel
ling comes in from the south past
Albrechts to Girards to Balut's cor
ner and then to school; 7-Mr. Paul

SANDSTONE

David Rankin, former pioneer
resident of Sandstone, died at the
home of his son in Hibbing Sunday.
Mr.. Rankin was born in Niagara
county, New York. in 1860, where he
grew to manhood. He came to Sand
stone soon after the Hinckley fire in
1894. He is survived by three sons
and one daughter. The body was
brought to Sandstone Tuesday after
noon and laid to rest beside his wife
in Spring Hill cemetery. Rev. r.
Reiger of Hinckley, held short serv-
ices at the grave. Old friends of the
family sympathize with them in the
loss of a good father.
Miller Peterson and Miss Mable SUI
honey were united in marriage in the
court chamber at the State Capitol
last Thursday afternoon by Rev.

a daughter of John Suhoney living
near Banning, and has been employed
at the Madison hotel the past few
years. The groom has been employed
by the Railway Postal service for
many years and has just recently
been retired from services with a
pension. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Peterson
have many friends here who wish
them a happy married life.
An American Legion District Con-
vention will be held here Friday eve
ming, when prominent speakers will
be on hand. A large delegation is
expected to attend.

Fin1ayson School Notes

The Finlayson public school will
open Tuesday, Sept. 4th, at a. m.
All pupils who expect to attend the
grades and all students who plan to
enter the high school should enroll
at that time. Parents should urge
their children to attend as soon as
possible as valuable time lost at the
start will influence a child's progress
throughout the year. Finlayson Of
fers free transportation and free books
to all students. Graduates of rural
schools are invited to attend.
Any child who is or will be six on
or before January 1, 1885, may enter
the first grade.
Students desiring unqualified ad-
mission to high school should bring
a certificate of grade school gradua-
ton or their State Board certificates.
The school this year will present a
different appearance both inside and
outside. A large crew of men under
the direction of Mr. Hoglund has been
busily at work for the past month
doing repair and redecorating work
under Federal ERA project. The
ordinarily clean building now glistens
like new, making a pleasing surround
ing for the education of children.
The state department maintains
that small school can be as efficient
as large school in scholastic attain
ments. The returns on the last state
board examinations reveals this to be
true in the case of Finlayson. Com
pared to a statewide average of 1870
pass marks Finlayson made $3.50
standing; $3.50 of the papers scored
pass plus mark. Seventeen pupils
had a pass plus on each of their four
papers.
