THE CEMETERY ASSOCIATION

Two years ago the women of Red
wood Falls organized cemetery as
ISOLATION.
From private owners they bought
the cemetery for $500 and assumed
a mortgage for $500. They added
three and three-fourth acres to the
old plot, at $75 an acre.
That gave them a debt of $1,000
but they faced the burden unfiinch-
ingTy, confidently.
They paid off the old mortgage.
They paid for the additional acres
and just recently thew satisfied the
remaining mortgage of $500.
Today the association is clear of
debt.
That is work of which to be
proud.
1t was gratuitous. There was no
recompense possible save in the sat-
isfaction of doing generous and kind
deeds.
These women have set an example
for the men Of Redwood Falls. They
have worked together in harmony
for common purpose, and their
efforts have been rewarded by com
plete success.
They deserve the thanks and the
continued support of the citizens of
this city and vicinity.

The waste Of American manhood

What are conserved mines worth

Why protect the richness of the

Power to do. to act. to think, to

in the worlds history.
To diligently be oneself, in wise
rectitude of purpose that sees but

secret of power in civilization.
Manhood run riot, womanhood
robbed of the lustre of purity, child
hood torn from the morning joys.
these are the sins of the age. over
shadowing. darkening. weighing
crushlngly upon the hearts of the
thoughtful, awful outrages against
true conservation.
Simplicity has gone glimmering;
Joy in common things is lost; the
voice of thewind and wave is hushed;
Pans notes are silenced or fall on
deaf ears; the strange and bewilder-
ing roar of the money mart has shut
out the music of the spheres.
See what we have squandered,
what of human resources we have
thrown away!
At this point should begin conser-
walton.
Unless We become as little children.
The dear, homely joys of the SIM
pie of heart and true of purpose
must be gathered close to us, held
strangely sacred, that the best in
humanity may gain dominance over
the worst the future may hold in
store.

REAL CONSERVATION

AS the population of the world in
creases conservation is word with
which to conjure.
1t is conceivable that the world
will eventually become over popu-
lated.
The time must come when the re-
turns from labor will be exceeded by
the natural increase in population.
Not for centuries, but in the end
this condition must be faced.
So there has sprungup movement
for conservation, sort of frighten-
ed fiuttering of nations over the rich
est of their natural resources.
1t is wise movement and Mime
sofa has taken prominent place in
working out solution.
Extravaganza has been the mettle
of the pasture to the American peo-
pie.
They have flung riches to the wind.
They have wasted the products of
the mines. squandered the resources
of the prairie, devastated the wealth
of the forests. Now many are call
ing halt. are casting about for
some means of checking this de-
bauchery of natures store houses.
Partially they wiiImeet with success,
in part they must ever fail as pri-
Vate greed will always tempt to hasty
destruction of the goods that belong
to the people.
But back of this is something more
serious:

RICHNESS CROPPING OUT

Miles of this black loan greet the

And the fruits of it: Much has

golden cribs and in great piles of
yellow corn.
Everywhere you gonow, are fairly
