The whooping cough is raging
through this vicinity and is rails
ing havoc with the attendance re-
cords of schools near Winona. 1t
is causing trouble especially in
the Segar district. One result of
the above is that certain plans
which had been made for union
Christmas festivities of the
schools have been of necessity
abandoned, for fear of the spread
of the malady. According to
latest information the schools
will celebrate separately, if at all,
although it is possible that all
plans may be given up. Great re-
greet has been expressed that such
great variation from the usual
practice has thus been made nee
essary.

A COMMON
SENSE TALK

Rusesl Sage, one of the most
eminent financiers of his day,
once said in regard to invest
ment:
There is a common fallacy
that while for legal advice we
go to lawyers; and for medical
advice we go to physicians while
for construction OF great work
we go to engineers-Financing is
everybody's business. AS a mat
ter of fact it is the most profound
and complicated of them all"
This is unfortunately too true.
The average man is always ready
to lend willing ear to the story
Of ''the pot of gold at the end of
the rainbow and then, when he
gets bit, as is inevitably the case,
it so sours him that when the
opportunity does present he is en-
tirely deaf to his own interests.
But strange to say, in some cas-
es, another chance to get rich "
will again bring forth the hard
earned savings from their hiding
place-another oily talk of the
slick promoter will cause even the
wary man to take a flyer at the
game just once more, even
though he admits to himself that
he is playing against a cold
deck.
Now this is without reason.
There is no necessity for any man
of even ordinary intelligence part
ing with his money on mere
hot air story. There is no excuse
for it even. The exercising of
Just little common sense will
prevent it and no man should
make the smallest investment
without first knowing beyond
the shadow of doubt what he is
putting his money into-who will
have the handling of his funds
and what assurance of positive
returns from his investment he
has.
Beware of the stranger with
the glib tongue that is so ready
to promise you any and every
thing for your money. No mat
ter how rosy his talk, you want
to remember that every rose has
a thorn.
, Put your money into home in,
Notwithstanding you either
KNOW all about or can easily
learn the true facts about. Don't
expect to get rich from your in
vestment in a day, a week, a
month or even year. If il
would bring that quick returns
you wouldn't be able to get in on
1t. BE content to make a SAFE
investment even if it is a little

At Y. NJ. G. A.

The largest meeting in the history
Of the Toastmasters' club was the one
held last night at the Y. NJ. c. A. For
ty-five men, more than twice the larg-
est attendance of last season, sat down
together to enjoy the feed and the fel-
lowship at the supper. and afterward
listened to the program. The supper,
always all important feature of the
club meetings. was served by Mrs. r..
c. SmedIey Mrs W. w. Taylor, Miss
Minnie Titterington, and Miss Alice
Gufffn.
II c. Fulmer. the retiring president
of the club. presided The election Of
new officers resulted in the choice of
c. c. Hubbart as president, E. L. Bla-
del as vice president, and \. c. Kerr
as secretary treasurer The next meet
ing will be held on Dec. Z.
Rev W. J Leach was the speaker Of
the evening. having been asked to give
the club a start by explaining to them
something as 10 what they should aim
to accomplish in their work. He spoke
on What Is Public Speaking" and said
some very surprising and al the same
time helpful things. Mr.. Leach's idea
of public speaking is that it is just
what every man is doing who talks to
other men, and his instruction to the
club men as to how they might be
good public speakers was that they be
natural in their expression, under
stand what they are talking about, and
then proceed to persuade an audience
Just as they would with an individual.
He held that there is little difference
between talking TO one man, or one
dozen, or one hundred, for the crowd
is made up of individuals.
This evening at the Y. NJ. C. A will
occur the initial athletic meet of the
Sunday school athletic league, and
thus far a great many entries have
been received. The following are the
events: High jump. broad jump, fence
