WILLOW RIVER BOY HAS
LIMB CUT OFF

A distressing accident occurred
here Wednesday afternoon when
Vincent, the 8 year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Pulsi, had a
leg cut off by the local freight
train. 1t appears that he was
catching a ride on the cars while
some switching was being done
and missed his step with the
above result. He was taken to
the hospital at Moose Lake where
the leg was amputated between
the knee and ankle by Drs. Ehmke
and Walter, and at last accounts
is doing as nicely as any boy
could do under the circumstances

regarding other suits at other
prices in other places.
In other words the family that
has been running along with
only one day or one week be-
tween them and trouble suddenly
begins studying the prices of
commodities, begins comparing
the places for securing them,
begins seeking information con-
corning those places, begins
reading and studying to see what
the sellers of those commodities
have to say.
And the result is that when
the pay envelope starts once
more they have probably learned
more about economics than they
ever knew in their lives before.
Getting out of a job is not a
bad thing. In most cases it's a
mighty good thing and has
started many a man on his way
to fortune.

Onions have broken into the news
One little spcck of them cost Lex

THE. VALUE OF BEING OUT
OF A JOB

The greater part of the Ameri-
can people live with only about
one days rations and reserve.
And most of us continue to work
that way until something hap
pens to disturb the adjustment
of our lives.
The average icebox has just
enough food to last until tomor-
row, the average pocketbook just
enough money to. the next pay
day.
Now, it is a we'll known fact
that the best way to upset the
serenity of a mans mind is to
upset his breadbasket. When
the stomach is empty the mind
thinks. Consequently, the quick
est way to make a man think is
to stop his pay envelope.
The man out of a job, a family
without pay envelope becomes
more active mentally than ever
before in their lives. The woman
of the house who has always
bought her groceries in the same
place suddenly becomes active in
the food market. She begins to
look around, to try to find out
what other concerns are asking
for prime roast or mutton chops.
The daughter who has always
eft things to a certain dress,
maker is forced to solve her
problem in some other way, and
she begins looking at the pic
lures of dresses and the price
marks beneath them. The mar
who has always bought certain
