1t was somewhat of a victory"
Tuesday afternoon when an automo-
bile came into town over the south
road which had been closed since
the storm on March 16. For exactly
one week the farmers along this road
as far south as Chris Molgaard have
worked every day at shoveling, chop
ping and saving a path through the
various drifts of snow which range
from two or three feet to as much
as six and seven feet deep. Beyond
the Molgaard farm there is stretch
which is not opened up and further
south the farmers go around via the
old Sandstone road. Many other
township roads are still closed on
account of snow.

Cooperation Needed.

Mrs. George Lindegaard, who is in
charge of the mattress making pro-
ject at the Legion hall, states that
it would greatly improve matters if
those knowing they will get mat
tress will make plans for being four
people to work on each mattress, so
that all four will show up when they
get card to come. So, plan to get
your partners for "foursome".

Speaker Here.

There is every reason to believe
that extra chairs will be needed Sun
day evening, March 80, in the church,
when DR.. Joseph Simon, of Vienna,
Austria, will lecture on the topic,
Conditions Before and After the
German Occupation of Denmark. u
The lecture will be in the Danish
language and coffee will be served
afterward in the church parlOrs.
Bring along D. F. song books. DR..
Simon has lectured in many cities,
including such places as San Fran
cisco, Chicago, Racine, etc, and comes
highly recommended by all who have
heard him.
/ DR.. Simon is of Jewish descent
and had to flee from Austria when
the Nazis marched into his country.
He fled to Denmark where he had
spent some time following the World
war. However, when the Nazis in
vaded Denmark year ago April 9,
he was again compelled to flee. He
was recognized by the Danish people
as a scholar and at the time of the
invasion he was serving as an in
structor at the Askov Folk School.
Here will be an opportunity to hear
first hand information as to con-
ditions in Europe.

Miss Ruth Elliott came from Mime
apolis Tuesday for few days visit

The Monarch Range day Saturday

many potential customers. They
served free coffee all day and started

sons, a factory representative, was
here to explain the value of their
products to the many customers.

Writes of Storm.

In letter to relatives here Harry
Jensen of Fargo, N. D., tells about
the March Is and Is blizzard. Incl
dentally, Harry terminated his serv-
ices some three weeks ago with the
coop store at Wright and is now a
salesman in the furniture department
of the Sears Roebuck & Company
store at Fargo.
After leaving the store at o'clock
Saturday evening Mr.. Jensen talked
with friends about half an hour be-
fore starting for his home which was
only four blocks distant. AS he
walked toward home the wind in
creased beyond description and as he
reached the final block the wind
came with such force that he was
blown across the street and into a
snowbank. With renewed determina-
ton he finally reached the house but
he had to practically crawl" the
last block.
