Paul Rich of Syracuse, Kansas, was
here last week visiting his son, Edi-
tor Rich, and family and also look
ing up auto owners who had not paid
their licenses. He has the job for 29
southwestern counties, He found 60
cars at the fair grounds that had not
secured the 1916 license. Two had
not bought license since 1913 and
were still beating the law and their
fellows. His work here sent forty Of
the sixty to the Office for tags last
week and all the rest promised.

license every year promptly and these
fellows running since 1913 without

An item from the Atchison Globe
which should bring in lot of sub
scription renewals: In the society
department of a Kansas City paper il
is stated that a Kansas City girl en-
tertained her friends with farmer
party. The guests arrived in queer
looking clothes and when refresh
ments were served, ate with their
knives and were uncouth generally.
All of which shows how ignorant and
behind the times city girls are. Farm
ers' wives and daughters dress in bet
ter taste than the Kansas City girls
who entertain with farmer" parties
While the city girl who makes fun of
them stands in crowded street car
hanging onto a strap, farmers roll by
in big motor cars. Her home is
poor affair in comparison with the
one where the average farmer lives
with its big we'll furnished rooms,
sleeping porches, electric lights and
heated with a furnace. The day has
passed when city girl can make fun
of farmers; II she only knew it she
would envy them.

ASKS that LEECH LAKE
CHANNEL Be DEEPENED

E. L. Warren, president of the Fed
eral Dam Booster club, has written
to Senator Knute Nelson and Con-
gresham G. A. Lindbergh asking that
the proposed item of 100000 in the
river and harbor bill for straighten-
ing and deepening the channel of
the Leech Lake river between the
Mississippi and the Dam be retained.
It was pointed out that owing to the
heavy fall of snow in the Leech Lake
basin and the shallow and sluggish
drainage canal, the hay crop in the
valley which the farmers are almost
entirely dependent for forage crop,
will be destroyed.
