Why Wait Two Weeks For

reductions on anything you have
ever enjoyed heretofore.
We are making these arrangements
with many of the big concerns Of the
country in regard to all ranch, farm

we have solved the problem.
Some of our friends to whom we

Governor Sets Mothers Day.

Governor Eberhart has issued
proclamation designating the
second Sunday in May for the OBJ.
servance of Mothers Day.
The proclamation follows:
"Ihe beautiful custom of set
ting apart one day in each year
to pay tribute to our mothe rs
should not be abandoned or for
gotten. No element in either ma.
tional or domestic life is more i'm
portant than the mothers of our
country. Home virtues are the safe
guard of our existence. Our
mothers are their highest exempli-
fcation.
Il recommend, therefore, that
the second Sunday in May be so
observed as to make it of practical
service to mankind and to give it a
permanent place IN the list of
Minnesota holidays."
