 Several weeks ago Mir. Galbra:th resigned the position of general master mechanic of the Cotton Belt road to accept the presidency of the Cotton Belt Mutual Savings Associ- ation. His resignation was received with regrets by the heads of all de- partments and the higher officials as well. He most efficiently filled the position from which he retired for over eight years and to say the least, his resignation was great loss to that read.

For years have we struggled to reach
the north pole by ship. Through hard
ship and danger brave explorers have
endeavored to reach the coveted spot.
The fact that the pole Is still mys-
terry points to the conclusion that our
rnethod was wrong, and lends credence
TO the recent utterance Of learned
scientist that we must abandon ship,
copy the Esquimo's customs and walk
to the pole, The same commonsense rea-
sons should be applied TO health.
