Talked At Askov
Meeting Monday
Fire Hazards, Insurance
Rates and Equipment are
Also Discussed.

Sanford Herberg, representative
from the Fire Underwriters Office,
Minneapolis, and Martin A. Nelson,
deputy state fire marshal from Clo-
quet, were the speakers of the eve
ming at the Askov Commercial club
and Fire Department meeting in the
D. B. S. hall Monday evening.
After routine business matters had
been disposed of in a rapid manner,
berg who gave an interesting talk on
insurance rates, fire prevention, clas-
sifcation and general fire hazards.
The speaker complimented Askov
very highly on the fire fighting equip
ment here which has been consider
ably improved since his last visit
and which improvements had occa-
stoned the village to be placed in class
nine instead of 10 in insurance rat
ings. The change had given the pro-
perty owners a reduction of 32 per
cent on business property and 4 per
cent on residences. The recent addi-
tions to the fire truck consist of
modern relief valve which prevents
hose from bursting, two shut-off
nozzles and several other items. All
these together with the booster pump,
truck, ladders, 500-gallon tank, s.
gallon portable tanks, etc., has placed
Askov as one of the best equipped
villages in the state in proportion
to its size. Mr.. Herberg warned,
however, that the department should
continue to be alert and add modern
improvements as rapidly as they are
available.
Care and Caution Needed.
The speaker presented an abund-
ance of interesting facts, figures and
illustrations on fire prevention, in
spection of property and elimination
of hazards, especially the latter.
Through neglect cleaning fluids are
left in dangerous places, oil mops
are placed in corners, temporary wir-
ing becomes permanent, electrical
equipment is continually added and
finally the entrance wires are over
loaded to such an extent that they

start fire several hours after the
current has been turned off. He
pointed out the danger of smoking
around filling station, putting gas
in car without stopping the motor,
using a match to see if there is
water in the radiator in which the
fluid often is mixed with alcohol,
smoking in bed and falling asleep
with a lighted cigarette, etc.
Mr.. Herberg complimented the
local Boy Scouts on the survey work
they are doing here. Half the battle,
he said, is in many instances to
know the building and exact location
of contents and hazards. The dia-
grams which the Boy Scouts are
making is in reality to fight fire be-
fore it occurs.
Proper Wiring Important.
Martin A. Nelson spoke along the
same lines, but stressed the import
ance of periodical inspections and
Enforcement of rules and regulations.
He stated that one gallon of naphtha
gasoline is equal to 80 sticks of dyna-
mite-and no one would care to have
80 sticks of dynamite around. He

By GEORG STRANDVOLD

In a quite evident attempt to smash
through to London and the rest of
the British Isles, Hitler's German
legions attacked, without warning,
Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg
during the night between May and
10; after the attack had been begun,
the German Fuehrer notified the three
governments that he had moved in
for the purpose of protecting them!
He knew, he sailor let his diplo-
mats say-that they were planning
to connive with Great Britain and
France, and that they might be in
vaded by these two powers; for that
reason it had become necessary for
Germany to extend its protection to
the threatened" nations.
But the benighted little fellows
didn't appreciate Herr Hitler's benev-
olence, at all! They were audacious
and impudent enough to reject the
proffered protection, in fact, to fight
against it-except poor, tiny Luxem-
bourg with an army of about three
hundred and fifty men: That nation
had to succumb.
Furious Attack.
With the amazing clockwork pre-
cision and machine efficiency of the
German war engine, and with
astounding suddenness the invaders
came in from many directions stimuli

Gold Medal Won
By Kerrick Boy
John Ferguson Gets Award
From School of Agricul-
ture, St. Paul.

John Ferguson of Kerrick, son of
G.. A. Ferguson, has been awarded
the gold medal for completing the
most outstanding project in the di-
vision of Agricultural Engineering
and the division of Soils at the school
of Agriculture in st. Paul during the
past season. Project work at the
school of Agriculture is the labora-
tory of the teaching which the stu
dents receive during the fall and
winter months. During the spring
and summer seasons the students
from the school carry on work on
the home farm along the line of the
teaching which they have received
while at University Farm.
1t was along the line of such teach
ing that John Ferguson carried on the
project on the home place, which won
as the best piece of work carried on
by any of the students at the school
of Agriculture during the past year.
1t dealt particularly with the keep
ing of records on a painting project
while he painted woodshed and a
chicken house and also the demon
stration of relative effects of fertilizer
on corn.
Practical Training Valuable.
Superintendent j. o. Christensen,
in commenting on the value of these
projects, said, ''The primary purpose
of the school of Agriculture at Uni
versity Farm is to articulate its train
ing and its program with the work on
the farm, in the farm home and in the
home community. A plan of six
months in the school of Agriculture
at University Farm and six months on
the home farm carrying out the teach
ings received at the school is the most
effective method of practical train
ing. We hope that others from Pine
county may avail themselves of the
opportunities offered by the state of
Minnesota through its school of Agri-
culture as we'll as John Ferguson has
DONE"

For though of different faith,

Judah Touro, scion of an old
Spanish family that had come to
the United States by way of the
Netherlands and West Indies, was
one of the four children of Rev.
Isaac Touro of Newport, R. l., and
Reyna Hays of Boston. His early
days were. spent in Newport, New
York and the West Indies. Fol-
lowing the death of his father in
the West Indies, when Judah was
but eight years old, the Touro
family moved to Boston, where he
lived with an uncle, Michael Hays,
successful Colonial shipper.
After having received a fine,
classical education, young Touro
entered the employ of his uncle
and in 1898 he was made super
cargo of ship sailing to the Med
iterranean. Successfully appren-
ticed, Touro left Boston for New

uncle had refused to countenance
