Enok Mortensen, one of the in
structors at Danebod folk high school,
Tyler, this winter, is spending this

evening he gave lecture before the
Young Peoples Society. He will
speak again this evening and it will
likely be continuation of the Sum
day evening lecture
At the D. B. S. meeting at Askov
Saturday evening it was decided to
build two feet onto the stage in their
hall. The result was a few of the
members were accordingly busy the
first two days of the week making the
alterations. Present indications are
that it will be wonderful improve
ment and much more convenient for
presenting plays. Two doors have
also been put in-one on each side
of the curtain-to permit access to
the front part of the stage without
raising the curtain.
An official of the Great Northern
Railways Company called in Holy
oke Monday in regard to an addition
of 1000 feet to the spur owned by
that company. Chances of getting
such an addition are not very good
unless someone decides to operate
potato and vegetable warehouse.
This community is in great need of
warehouse and there is no doubt
that such an enterprise would be
successful.
The annual meeting of the Askov
COOPERATIVE Association, which was
held in the D. B. S. hall yesterday
afternoon, was well attended in spite
of the cold weather. Reports showed
that the association enjoyed a good
business during the year, and all of
the officers were reelected as fol-
lows: Jens Arnbal, president; Christ
Larsen, vice president; Ludwig Mad
sen, secretary; Peter Petersen, treas
urer; Chr. Sorensen, director, and T.

James III. Stephenson

On Sunday, January II, at 3 p. m.
James H. Stephenson of Duquette,
was called to rest. He was 66 years
of age.
Mr.. Stephenson was born near
Humansville, Mo-, on January 8,
1876. He was the first of 10 children
to be taken. AS a child he moved
with his parents into Iowa and there
grew to manhood. At the age of
20 he came to Minnesota where he
was employed in helping to build
the Northern Pacific Railway, and
also at carpentry work.
In the year of 1901 he was united
in marriage to Lillian Frost Crowley.
Three years later they moved to the
Duquette locality where they have
resided since. Twelve years ago he
was badly injured and never regained
his health. For the past three years
he has been constantly under a doc
tors care. He never complained al
though his suffering was intense.
Mr.. Stephenson was a kind and
loving husband and father, and one
who taught his children to share
companionship with the Lord. He
is one to be long remembered in the
community for his kind, unselfish
spirit and his ever ready helping
hand for others.
He leaves to mourn, his wife, two
sons, Wayne in Idaho, Jasper in Sc
attic, and seven daughters, Leela
Slocum of Plattsville, Wis, Viola An
derson of Duluth, Joyce Meyer of
Quamba, Lucille of Marinette, Wis,

Mrs. Anil Glacier was burned to
death yesterday in fire which COM
pletely destroyed their farm home
five miles northwest of Bruno. Their
four-year old son had set some paper
afire and he and his two-year old sis
ter played around the little blaze but
the flames soon spread and shortly
the whole room was ablaZe. The
boy succeeded in getting his sister
out of the house and then went back
in to get the baby, but smoke over
came him and he had to leave the
child and make his own escape. Mrs.
Glacier was in the barn at the time
and before she realized what was
happening the house was mass of
flames.

were broken although the arm was
painfully bruised.
The response given by folks called
on by the two teams, the Mesdames
James Murphy and Eldred Parker in
one team and the Mesdames Tom
Stine and Edith Lund in the other,
was wonderful. The cash contribu-
tions were $40 and almost everyone
approached is going to furnish some
thing for the sale. There will be
chicken, eggs, potatoes, canned goods,
groceries, fancy work. Well, just
come yourself and see what there is.

Along this line comes news of interest
here. Miss Doris Erickson spent five
days at this home and reports have
it that Don Small spent the same
five days there. 1t is impossible for
Kerrick folks to figure the exact re-
lationship between these two but she
is not his sister.

the title. Born Saturday and the
cigars were being passed. Mother
and daughter are fine.
