It's Lovely In Janan; BUT


Japan is certainly some country, -
remarked Ilr. Meek as he looked up
from his magazine.
How so? inquired Mrs. Meek.
We'll, for one thing, the men over
there know how to treat their wives
and get the best results. In Japan
every man is a king in his own home.
Every time he enters the house his
wife gets down on her knees and bangs
her head on the floor as al mark of re-
spect. There is considerable class to
that. l got a photograph of you pull

Mr.. Meek, the husband can go home

John Lovett went to Elkton Satur-
day morning and visited over Sunday
with friends.
There was considerable excitement
around the county Jail this morning
when it wac discovered that Ole
Nyhus, who was bound over to the
circuit court on a charge Of forgery,
was missing. Search was made for
him for some time and finally about
eight-thirty, Sheriff Halvorson went
again to his cell and Nyhus YVES sitting
there as un%concerned as could be.
Now the question is, was he in the
Jail all the time and was overlooked
by the sheriff, or did he escape
through a window in the night and re-
turn the same way? The question
promises to remain unanswered, as
Nyhus, who is a peculiar fellow, re-
fuses to throw any light on the mat
ter, but 1t certainly has the sheriff
his head.

BUDGET PLAN FOR ABERDEEN

The Commercial Club Of Aberdeen
has adopted a plan for the promotion
of that city and it's Industries that sets
a new mark for other enterprising
cities OF the state. The club proposes
to raise a budget of $4,000 yearly to
be devoted entirely to promoting the
city, with that sum at its command the
metropolis of the north should accom-
plish things. This budget will be
raised at the beginning of each year
and will be used to defray all ex.
penses for the general good of the
city that is 10Y met by the circulat-
ing of subscription papers. Every
citizen of the city is made a member
Of the budget committee and as such
Will be expected to aid in raising the
fund, not leaving all Of the burden to
be borne by the live citizens who are
members Of the Commercial Club.
The Aberdeen club believes that every
citizen is benefited by any movement
that benefits the city and therefore
should stand his share of the expense,
In proportion to his means and the
amount that he is benefited. The
working out Of the plan will be watch
with interest by other cities in the
state having similar problems.
