small store room say twenty feet deep.
A few years ago these rooms were all
occupied as lunch rooms, candy stores
or small grocery stores In a town the
other day the writer saw one side OF
the main business street with every
store vacant. In that town was large
store with stock of goods more in
Value than formerly was storedo in all
of these vacant store rooms. In this
connection can be said in the larger
towns, say $500 to 5000 population,
these small stores are all occupied and
apparently making money. And in the
small town where the vacant store
rooms exist, the dwelling houses are
not empty In a town with eight va
cant stores new railroad agent had
to wait month before he could get a
mouse to move into. In another vacant
three families are living in such vacant
store rooms because they can not get
houses to live in.
Again, the hotel business in the
small Iowa towns is dwindling per-
cepubly very much to the disgust of
the landlords that expect to get rich
charging the public $500 day. It's
not because of the two-cent fare on
the railroads, not because there are
less travelling men on the road, but
somehow the travelling men and the
travelling public, now get into the
larger towns to stay over night. One
factor, of course, in the change of no
tel business is the increased number
of trains of the railroads and the
growing use of the automobile.
Twenty years ago many of these hotels
We're doing "a land office business"
literally so because of the number of
purchasers of Iowa farms. Again trav-
cling men making these small towns
say every thirty days, have found out
the restaurants where good meals are
furnished for 25 cents. and they don't
see the farmer and the town director
getting exactly the same meal for 25
cents for which they are charged so
cents because they sit at the table
where the oranges are" To offset this
growing habit Of the travelling men.
many hotels now charge Is cents for
rooms without meals. Such things
must of course work out their own
salvation. 1t seems to many that in the
near future even in the smaller towns,
hotels will be conducted on the Euro
pean plan. Pay for what You have,
even the price of soap and the candle.
as some hotels in Europe actually put
in the bill. One thing is sure in many
Iowa hotels the guest pays for what
ne does not have.

The following religious poem. which
I hereby present TO your readers in an
English version, We're written by DR..
Elias Blk. the greatest writer of relig
ious songs and psalms that Norway
ever produced.
DR.. Blk was professor in theology
and Semitic languages at the Christi
ania University.
He was thoroughly educated man,
and all his intellectual activity bore
the stamp of true christianity. The
present translation of one of his pieces
is respectfully dedicated to the great
evangelist, w. A. Sunday. and all the
good people of Marshalltown who stand
SO boldly and faithfully on the firing
line when he turns his tremendous
batteries of moral reform against all
the forces of crime and corruption.
Marshalltown has never been so
great as she is today in her firm stand
for christian morality, and the influ-
ence of the sweeping tidal wave of
moral forces will be felt for a genera
ton.
Having started a moral houseclean-
ing of far-reaching effect. and having
so nobly and manfully raised the great
standard of christianity, Marshalltown
viii gain more power and prestige as
city of progress and christian ideals.
Having unfurled the glorious banner
of morality TO the breeze, she will hold
Port Arthur" against all the powers
of hells pollution.

Commenting on the death of Henry
H. Rogers, the Spirit Lake Beacon
says: His record is not without hui
manitarian incidents. But the fact
most boldly in relief is his unquench-
able rapacity. In business dealings he
was absolutely ruthless. Men in his
way were crushed if he could reach
them and he brooked no rivalry that
he could kill with any weapons within
his grasp. The endowment of religion,
and education and charity is noble in
it's contribution to general usefulness,
but no amount of benefaction can OBJ
scure the meanness of remorseless
cupidity which traffics upon hearts and
homes in its Unsuitable greed"
