Who is she that shall command
All my hearts devotion?
She who's famed for beauty's dover:
Beauty lasteth but an hour,
Wrecked SO soon by the storms that

Who is she, then. that shall reign,
All my heart enchanting?
She whose gifts are of the mind,
Intellect and will combined?

Showering good on every hand

BLAzING TIL TRAIL
TRAIL BLAZING AS
ISOLATION OF AMERICA MARK
ING COAST TO COAST ROUTE r.

A crew consisting Of A. L. Meigs
and r. Fl. Anderson of Minneapolis,
representatives Of the Automobile Trail
Blazing Association of America, were
in the city last Friday. From here they
went to Brainerd and then back to St.
Cloud from which place they returned
Sunday evening. They are one Of
numerous crews which are working
through the country laying out trans
continental route. Mr.. Meigs was the
originator Of the movement which was
first tried out in Iowa. Both the Mime
apolis and Fargo and the Sioux City
and Duluth routes pass through st.
Cloud making it an important place as
a motoring center.
The routes are mapped out by marking
the posts along the way with the color
scheme Of that trans-continental route
to which that part Of the country be-
longs. The color scheme for the Mime
apolis and Fargo route is blue and
white. Farrow g is the official associa-
tion garage. Brainerd is an important
point on the international Falls and
Duluth route which is branch Of the
Duluth and Sioux City way. This move
ment is meeting with the approval Of
all Of the cities along the routes and
promises to increase motoring to con-
siderable extent. The frequency Of the
blazing does away with the chance Of
motorists losing themselves.

ED CHURCH IN NORTHWEST

The work of wiring the Pierz

EXHIBITING PRODUCTS AT THE
COUNTY FAIR

Exhibiting products at the county
fair has become an art. At nearly
every fair there are a few exhibitors
who get more than their proportiorate
share Of prizes. These are usually
men who have exhibited in past years
and who understand how to prepare
their samples for exhibition. They
know what points the judge considers
in making the awards and they select
their products with these points in
mind. They are professional exhib:
itors. Other farmers may have products
just as good but they &c not win prizes
simply because they do not know how
to select or prepare their samples.
Everyone is interested in having the
best products produced in the county
exhibited at the fair. The products
exhibited are supposed to be and
should be the best that the county has
to offer. To secure the best, care
must be taken in the selection. Every
farmer should know what things con-
stitute good sample Of grain or vege-
tables, in order to make as good a.
showing as possible. To learn this,
every exhibitor should be present if
possible when the judge is making the
awards.

After placing the ribbons, the Judge

After placing the ribbons, the Judge
should explain to all interested par
ties his reason for placing the awards.
Every exhibitor should feel free to ask
questions and to find out what points
the Judge considers in making the
awards If this is done the exhibitors
will feel better satisfied. They will
learn wherein their exhibits were
weak and how to improve them next
year. This will tend to increase the
quality Of the products from year to
year, and will add to the educational
value Of the fair.-J. B. Lamson, FIX

1.-THE MENACE'' Is A GREAT
MENACE
The following article is taken from
the Crookston Times and refers to the
publication, "The Menace'' as paper
compared with Jim Jam >Jems. The
matter reads as follows:
"Rev. S. J. Hedelund of the Episco-
pal church mentioned another paper in
sermon recently, compared with
which Jim Jam Jems would be a Sun
day school publication. Rev. Mr.. He'd
elund referred to The Menace, the COL
umns Of which TEEN with such veritable
rot that it should be regarded es a
filthy thing, Stunned by all decent peo-
pie. 1t is so low and depraving in it's
teachings that it should be barred from
every decent home, and as far as we
know it is, though free copies are be-
ing mailed to great many homes
where the children per chance get to
read them before they are consigned to
the furnace.
eff the federal grand jury would in
vestigate the Menace, and the results
that might come from poisoning the
minds Of innocent children, a true bill
would be returned against it's publish
ers, and if the laws now permit such
slime to be circulated, they should be
amended.
fThe best way to determine any,
ones lack Of religion, manhood and de-
cency,is to listen to the demoralizing
voice which attacks the religion Of 9TH
ers. That man or woman should be
watched like a thief is watched.
Watched like white SLAYER or scar

An Aggregation of Good
Shows.

The management of the county
fair has been peculiarly fortunate in
being able to make a contract with
a frst-class amusement company to
furnish good, clean shows during
the fair. This particular part of
the arrangement has been pending
for several weeks is why the time
for holding tho fair has not been
announced prior to this. The COM
pany that has been engaged objects
to being called a carnival, because
of the Objectionable features that
usually enter into the makeup of
the average carnival. The proprie-
tor of this company claims to have
an aggregation of good shows that
have not failed to give entire satis-
faction wherever they have been.
A good band accompanies the ag-
gregation, which will furnish mu'
sic throughout the fair.

Some Substitute For Wood.

Although this county doubtless
has more wood of p:actically all
kinds than most of the counties in
in the state, yet after all there is
but little that is really suitable for
building purposes. 1t is now almost
impossible to find pine shingles
of desirable quality. Nearly all of
the original forest pines have been
cut leaving only the second growth
or "old field" pines which are very
inferior for building purposes. Just
as metal shingles and other metal
roofing are supplanting wood,so will
some substitute have to be found for
wood for building purposes. Maybe
Thomas Edison's plan of building
houses of cement will yet have to
be adopted.

still, he is thoughtful, kind and atten-
