LARGE NUMBEK ATTEND ALUMNI BANQUET

One Hundred and Forty Present at Annual Feast of Alumni Asso­

ciation of High School.

About one hundred and forty mem­bers of the Willmar High School Alumni Association were present at the annual banquet held Monday eve­ning at Carlson Hall. This is the largest number ever to attend a ban­quet of this Association The main hall was decorated with flags and bunting draped from the ceiling and walls. The banquet was in three courses and consisted of the follow­ing: Grapefruit, creamed chicken, po­tato fluff, tomato salad, radishes, olives, hot rolls, ice cream a la straw­berries, angel food, coffee and wafers.

Russel S. Peterson of the Class of 1908 acted as toastmaster and filled the position in a splendid manner, in­troducing each number in an amus ing way. As June 14th was Flag Day, the entire assemblage rose and sang one verse of "The Star Spangled Banner." The first number on the pro­gram was a piano solo by Miss Nellie Robbins, a number greatly appreciat­ed by those present. This was fol­lowed by Thorwald Hanson, whose topic was the Class of 1915. He stat­ed that the members of the class were glad to become members of the Alum­ni Association, and that they would always be trying their best to keep up the high standard of the Associa­tion Miss Marion Minton, of the Class of 1908 then rendered two vocal solos winch were enthusiastically received Miss Winifred Sherwood, Class of 1910 then followed with a toast, her subject being "Bachelor Girls," and she showed a thoro knowledge of her subject This was followed by a vio­lin duet by Thorwald Hanson and El-vm Ilstrup, members of this years class Miss Amy Sevennson, another of this year's class, responded to a toast, her subject being "The Class Prophecy." The final toast of the eve­ning was given by Mrs. E. H. Frost, of the Class of 1894. She told of the history of the Alumni and the origin of the same Also several ways in which the class of 1894 was unique.

The final number was a selection by the senior quartette, composed of the Misses Esther Larsen and Nellie Robbins, Robt Johnson and Lars Ped-ersen. They gave two selections which were greatly enjoyed. At the conclusion of the program the Asso­ciation sang a couple of verses of "America."

The meetting was then turned over to the vice president, the president, Sophus Larsen, being unable to be present The reports of the secretary and treasurer were read and approv­ed. The treasury is in a particularly flourishing condition, about $62 00 be­ing deposited to the credit of the As­sociation. Officers for the ensuing year were then elected, the result be­ing as follows:

President—Dr H F. Porter. Vice President—Miss Mane Nelson Secretary—Miss Esther Nickelson Treasurer—Herbert Hengstler. It was then decided to have the

banquet on June 14th each year, ex­cept when the date falls on Sunday The meeting then adjourned and the remainder of the evening was spent in a social way.

COUNTY GRADUATES RECEIVE DIPLOMAS

Impressive Exercises Mark Ru­ral School Graduation in tills

City last Friday. The second annual commencement

exercises of the rural schools of Kan­diyohi county were held at the Court House in this city last Friday after­noon. The weather man decreed that the day should be nice, and as a re suit, the court room was packed to the limit with an interested audience. The room was beautifully decorated for the occasion with the colors of the class, purple and gold, and the motto, "Not Finished, But Begun,"~oc-cupied a very conspicuous place. The exercises opened with the graduates, ninety-four strong, marching into their places. The first number on the program was a piano solo by Miss Ethel Govig, and this was followed by the invocation, given by Rev. J. L. Parmeter. Miss Goldie Felt, of District 39, the salutatorian of the class then delivered her address of welcome, which will be found in full in another column of The Tribune. Following the salutatory, Rev. W Bryn Jones of the First Presbyterian church of this city gave a short ad­dress, to the class. He said they had now completed all the work required of them by the state, but that as many as were able would continue, while some, due to various circum­stances would be unable to continue However, the pleasant memories of school days will never be forgotten This graduation was the first real turning point in the lives of the scholars, and he likened their lives so far to a mountain stream, running in straight course, which is suddenly changed. He urged the members of the class not to feel as tho the world owed them a living because such was not the case, and he stated that they should not be afraid of making mis­takes m attainingfthe goal they were striving for, because mistakes are stepping* stones to success, "Always have a vision of your possibilities ahead of you," he said, "protect the possibilities, and grow up to be good men and women."

Mrs J. A. Rowat then rendered a very pleasing vocal solo, accompan­ied by Mrs F G. Handy, on the piano. T. A. Erickson, of the Extension De­partment of the State University then gave an interesting talk. He stated that the members of the graduating class represented the best of Kandi­yohi county. He said that every boy and girl in the county was entitled to a diploma, and he plead earnestly for support and co-operation of the par­ents in seeing that the children had every chance possible. He talked of the change in running the county schools. Formerly it was a one-sided plan, merely to train the head, but now three other important forms were added. The second is the training of the heart, teaching the scholars to be kind, sympathetic and true; thirdly the training of the hands, brought

ANDERS RASMUSSON. Mr Anders Rasmusson died at the

home of his son, H. P. Rasmusson at Pennock, Tuesday morning, June 15. Death was caused by old age.

Mr Rasmusson was born in Tjer, Denmark, Sept. 16, 1827 and spent his youth there In 1873 he emigrated to America where he first located on a homestead, one and one-half mile north of Pennock Here he resided for five years when he moved to a farm two miles southeast of Pennock, where he lived until death called him.

He leaves to mourn his sad depart­ure three children, Rasmus Rasmus­son of Pennock, H. P. Rasmusson on the home place, and Mrs. F. W Rose of New London, fifteen grandchild­ren and a large circle of friends.

The funeral will be held Friday, June 18th at two o'clock from the residence and three o'clock from the St. John's church, of which the de­ceased was a faithful member. Rev. M. B. Michaelson of Willntar will of­ficiated.

BRYAN'S RESIGNATION.

W. J. Bryan's resignation from the cabinet has been the cause of much caustic and adverse comment, but we predict that his action will be viewed in a different light after a while. We believe his resignation and the cause givea for it has been the most potent action for peace of any event that has yet taken place since the saturnalia of war broke c ut. It came at the psy­chological moment and turned the drift towards a war sentiment in this country to peace talk. Instead of finding fault with Wilson's second note, which cannot be classed as a very belligerent document, which the jingoes would have been sure to do, they now turn about and criticise Bryan because he could take any of­fense at so mild an instrument. Wil­son and Bryan have not parted. The loss of Bryan at the cabinet table is greatly to be deplored, but probably as he himself feels, he can do bet­ter work for the common cause as a private citizen.

If Bryan had been the nonentity in the cabinet that the big papers claim why should they find fault with his withdrawal? Only too well the big interests and their allied politicians know Bryan's influence with the peo­ple. Hence their determined efforts to discredit him in this crisis Even Roosevelt, who two weeks ago, de­nounced Wilson as a weakling, now comes out and praises Wilson to the skies because he believes that by so doing he will hurt Bryan—Bryan, the only jten whom Roosevelt knows riv­als him in popularity on the platform Bryan will be found henceforth sup­porting Wilson, like Aaron supported Moses, when the politicians who are now endeavoring to make trouble be­tween the two have long since turned on the president.

Bryan is the hero for peace. His action has jarred the governments of the earth more than an ultimatum for war would have done. It is the first cry in the wilderness from a promi­nent leader for that which must come —international peace; and the fact that Bryan saw that he must resign all political honors in order to make it, renders it all the more potent.

The Old Settlers' foot race was won by J. O. Malmberg over J. S. An­derson. Chas. Kragenbring also sprinted, but he was below the age limit.

The boys' foot race was won by Ir­win, Reuben and Chester Hovey.

The doings of the day closed with a ball game, Atwater vs. Dassel, which was witnessed by several hundred people. The score stood 4 to 8 in favor of the home team.

A Close Call. The lightning struck down on the

house of John Thome in the village of New London last Saturday morn­ing demolishing the chimney, tearing off large portions of the plastering and doing other damage internally. Mrs. Thorne and the children were in the house at the time, but escaped uninjured, which almost seemed a miracle.

—Do not fail to hear the Hamline University Trio Friday night, at the First Methodist church. These young men are "The Jolly Bunch," and are making "a hit" everywhere they go.

Otter Tail Not Two to One. The official county option vote in

Otter Tail county was 2,304 to 3,948, thus lacking 660 in being two to one In Kandiyohi county the vote was 717 to 2,142 or lacking only 9 votes in being three to one. Therefore Kandi­yohi county still holds the banner away ahead of any county that has voted as yet.

The Eighteenth Annual Reunion of the Kandiyohi Old Settlers' Associa­tion at Atwater was a great success. Ideal summer weather prevailed and the attendance was good. Willmar was well represented, also New Lon­don, SDicer, Raymond, and the coun­try districts generally. As usual in the history of the Association the At­water people did themselves proud in the way they provided dinner and oth­erwise entertained the Old Settlers.

The morning session was held at the Lyric Theatre, after outdoor mus­ic by the Atwater Band. President E. M. Stanford was prevented by ill-health from attending and Martin Ol­son was appointed acting president. Reports of officers were heard. The general treasury showed a balance on hand of $171.43. The reports of Sec­retary Forsberg and Treasurer Odell were approved. During the day $84.25 were received in dues and 26 new members were enrolled.

Treasurer Odell of the Committee on Old Settlers' Memorial reported that up to that time $434.60 had been contributed for that project. Atwater citizens came forward with a contri­bution of $38.50, and a subscription was taken at the meeting which amounted to $49.50, bringing the total at the close of the meeting to $522.60. These last contributions will be given in detail in our next edition. The meeting went on record favoring the continuance of the committee and its work and urged all communities which have not responded to the movement to do their best to bring the total amount to where something of real credit to the county may be secured. So far the pupils of thirty-nine dis­tricts have responded, leaving about 70 school houses yet to hear from. Popular subscriptions have been tak­en in only 21 districts, leaving about 90 communities to hear from.

Officers for next year were elected as follows:

President, Peter Broberg, of tt@w London.

First Vice President, J. O. Malm­berg, Atwater.

Second Vice President, Frank Har­ris, Irving.

Secretary, A. O. Forsberg, Willmar. Treasurer, C. W. Odell, Willmar. At the close of the business session,

the members of the Association stood for the annual picture, which was tak­en by H. W. Jones. The photograph­er announces that an exceptionally fine negative was secured.

Dinner was then served in the town hall by the ladies of Atwater a"hd they deserve much credit for the feast pro­vided. The tables were twice filled by the visitors who were all bounti­fully supplied.

The afternoon session took place m the open air adjoining the hall. The band gave a concert. The new­ly-elected president not being present, Mr. E. F. Fink of New London, and former Supt. of Schools, was called on and responded gracefully. Inci­dentally he mentioned that he was back to Kandiyohi county to again be­come a resident.

The memorial address was given by Secretary Forsberg. The follow ing members of the association have passed away during the past year: Matts J. Granquist, Mrs. Dorothea Sampson, Ole Arneson, Mrs. Adolph Samuelson, Oliver Larson and Henry Feig. Other old settlers, not enroll­ed as members, whose passing was mentioned were Peter S. Aspaas, Hans Westlund, Mrs. Emily Benton, And. P. Quist, Thomas P. Sherman, Mrs. H. W. Mankell, Mrs. Britta Lindquist, John Johnson, Johannes Rasmusson, K. O. Axness, Ole Husa, Mrs. Agnete Halvorson, Mrs. R. O. Matson and Ole Lundquist. A tribute was given Rev. Peter Beckman, an early pastor of the county who passed away this year at Troy, Idaho. The speaker paid an especial tribute to the late Henry Feig, whom he said might with jus­tice be called the father of the Old Settlers' Association. He was instru­mental in arranging for the fortieth anniversary celebration of the settle­ment of Diamond Lake, which was held July 4, 1897, from which meet­ing the permanent organization re­sulted.

A paper on Events Fifty Years Ago was read by V. E. Lawson.

The oration of the day was deliver­ed by Judge T. O. Gilbert of Willmar, who made an earnest plea to the young people to continue in the foot­steps of their parents in the uphold­ing of the high ideals of the three pillars of society, the home, the school and the church*. He spoke mainly as a substitute for Senator Rustad, who was unable to be pres­ent, but we believe the assembly was well pleased with the result.

After the singing of America, the session came to a close and some sports were pulled off on the street, with J. O. Malmberg as master of ceremonies. The annual tug-of-war between the south and north parts of the county resulted in the victory of

I the former with all the good natured bandy-ing, claims and counter-claims, ifs and buts, which generally goes with this event. All helped smoke the cigars given as a prize.

The girls' egg race was won by

An Appreciation. The Chronicle man heard Benjamin

Swalin, of the North High, a mere lad in knee-pants, play the violin at an entertainment a few nights ago. As he took his place we saw a slender lad and one had no right to expect much. There was a suggestion of mas­tery, however, as he assumed posi­tion to let fall his bow. The introduc­tion was a daring one and compelled immediate respect. It was a dash in double stops, portamento, with vigor­ous bowing and a noble tone. After the first phrase the audience was his. There were a certain abandon, a free­dom of movement, a swaying of the body in harmony with the rhythm of the music, a remarkable vigor as well as delicacy in the use of the bow, a perfect intonation, and a technique entirely adequate to the demands of the selections played. The tones drawn from the G String were some­thing superb. His harmonics, not too Leely used, were little flashes of light. In one passage where the bow­ing ended and the pizzicato began was a bewildering puzzle to the lis teners.

Nor was his work merely an exhi bition of .dexterity. There seemed to be feeling and passion, and fire in and the wonder is how so young a lad could have so many attributes of the artist.

Master Benjamin Swalin will assist at Nordmandenes Sangforening con­cert June 23.

The Willmar Citizens' Band have contracted with the Patterson's Shows to give a week's engagement at the ball park at Willmar beginning Monday, June 28, and closing Satur­day, July 3. The following clipping from the Paola newspaper gives an outline of what these shows are:

"The Patterson Shows are having their annual opening in Paola, their winter home, this week. The equip­ment has been overhauled, improved and added to until it is practically new and is greater, larger and more complete than ever before in the his­tory of these successful shows. The one thing that has marred the open-ing is the illness of Mr. Patterson, who has been confined at his beauti­ful home on the farm at the winter quarters with a severe attack of ery­sipelas, from which he is happily gradually recovering.

"The Patterson Shows are the lead­ers among the carnivals, and have become so strictly on their merits. Their attractions are the best that money can buy and their equipment always the best. They are a veritable city of canvas, their shows occupying all the room about the city park and reaching into the streets leading off from the park, with the animal show occupying the city's half block just north of the park.

"The feature of the shows is of course the Patterson-Backman com­bined Anglo-Saxon Trained Wild Ani­mal Arena, with performing African lions, Major Dumond's fight with an untamable lion, Prof. Bray's perform­ing Teddy bears, educated dogs, mili­tary ponies, performing elephants, the only riding tiger in the world, high school horses and many other feat­ures, making it a show without a rival.

"Roberta and her lady minstrels, a bevy of pretty girls in a musical me­lange, is a new attraction that draws large and delighted crowds.
