Thus far the daily decisive battle" in
the far east isn't deciding much except
that the Japs are making a reputation
for their country which will entitle it to
rank hereafter as one of the great powers
of the world. Their success may or may
not mean the realization of the fears of
those who lie awake nights thinking about
the yellow peril. We are content to
cross the yellow peril bridge when we
reach lit. Meanwhile. let the Japs con-
tinue their march toward Mukden and
Hardin.

Minnesota farmers who may lose remu-
neration for their horses and cattle con-
demned for disease will not thank those
benefcent lawmakers responsible for the
loss. Fair warning was given these states
men when they insisted on the passage
Of the legislative excrescence creating the
state livestock sanitary board. That warn
ing was not needed, and now it is held
by good authority that this law repealed
the one compromising owners for part of
the value Of condemned stock. Evidently
the legislation was bungle, from first to

THE NONPAREJL MAN
On the Necessity Of Having Good, Stout
Basketball Girl In the Party When You
Fall Into Several Fathoms Of Water-It
Msy Save Your Life.

:. 80 =
A basketball girl rescued st. Louis
travelling man who had inadvertently
stepped into Mnnetonka the other day
where the water was several miles over
his head. The travelling man when child
had neglected that important part of his
education that boys acquire in the water
and did not know how to swim. Now
when a man finds himself in several faith
oms of water swimming becomes to him a
very important and necessary art unless
he can always carry basketball girl
along as a side line, and this sometimes
becomes difficult. Fortunately the ath-
letic girl was along with the party and
the travelling man, thanking fortune that
his suspenders were holding, was lifted
out of the water and placed on what Mrs.
Darlington called vice versa once more.
If you are going to take the crease out of
your trousers by falling overheard make
sure first that there is good, stout girl in
the party. 1t may save your life.

was evident that something was radi-

1t was too far to walk back to the
hotel, and heaven only knew how far
ahead this stretch of wood might ex-
tend. The safest plan seemed to be
that of waiting patiently and trusting
to the aid Of some passing automo-
bile. Fortunately, the car had come
to its final rest in the shadow of a
big pine. Densmore found a copy of
the morning paper in his coat pocket,
and climbing back on the car, he
settled back comfortably to read and
wait for aid.
An hour passed by and not a soul
appeared. What with reading stale
news and listening to the signing OF
the wind through the pines, Densmore
was becoming sleepy. He searched
