The supreme court of Oklahoma re-
Gently handed down decision that
must appeal to all who believe that
there are certain inalienable rights
that belong to the individual and not
to the state. The decision guarantees
liberty to those who observe another
day than Sunday as Sabbath, provided
that if they work on the first day of
the week they do so in such a manner
as not to interrupt or disturb other
persons, in observing said day as holy
time. In it's decision the court calls
attention to one phase of Sabbath OBJ
servance that is usually overlooked,
as follows:
Courts which hold that to require
Sab batarians to keep our Sunday, does
not prevent them from also keeping
the seventh day, overlook the fact that
under the divine commandment, that
these people are striving to obey, it
is imperative that they work six days
as that they rest on the seventh. And
that if their conscience compels them
to rest one day, and the law also
forces them to rest another, they will
thus be forced to violate the first pro.
vision of the commandment, they are
conscientiously attempting to keep.

Arguing that local option is the
proper method Of solving the liquor
problem, Senator Underwood of Ala
bama recently said: "When you sub
nit the question Of prohibition or of
temperance laws to a people and they
vote for it, they enforce it; but the
history of all such legislation has
proven that when you force prohibition
down the threats of an unwilling peo-
pie, it is never enforced; that the
blind tiger in all it's riot, takes the
place of the saloon, and that contempt
of law is erected by force of arms in
place of respect for law" True be-
|yond "a doubt. Even in communities
where sentiment lis pretty evenly di-
vided, a strict enforcement Of prohibi-
ton laws is we'll nigh impossible.

"Let's work for fewer elective state
officers, not for more" says the Du-
luth Herald, commenting on the pro-
posal to have the speaker Of the house
elected by direct vote of the people.
Amen. The vote on the constitutional
amendments at the recent election
proved conelusively that numerous
votes on certain of the propositions
were merely random shots into the
dark, and it is safe to say that thous-
ands of the voters fail to acquaint
themselves with the qualifications of
many of the candidates for state
office that they are now called upon
to vote for or against.

the second Outdoor Sports Carnival,
which is to be held January 81 to Feb

were in gay carnival costumes, partici-
pated in moving picture pageants and
the real carnival spirit was again re-

The birds which remain With =, US Us
in winter are always in imminent
danger Of starvation during periods.
Of deep snow and low. temperature.
Many. birds live on foods obtained.
from the ground Others from weed:
tops and plants that are covered ky..

supply the birds with food and many
bird lives can be saved by little care
and attention at this time.
Feeding stations should be ,estab-
lished near residences for such winter
birds as downy and hairy woodpeck-
ers, chickadees, nuthatches, brown
creepers, evening grosbeaks and other
winter residents or visitants. Suet.
seeds OF various kinds, ground meat
scraps, ETC., will attract the birds in
large numbers. Suet may be fastened
to branches Of trees, grain may be
scattered on straw or litter in shell

by boughs to prevent covering with
snow. s>> - :sf->>* 49,: Il
"In the fields, thickets and woods
shelters should be provided for the
quail and food placed for them dur
ing the winter months. Quail are not
native to Minnesota but are becoming
very hardy and with care and atten-
ton in the winter may be made very
plentiful. The care of the bobwhite
quail is an effort worthy of all farm
ers and sportsmen as it is a bird most
beneficial to agriculture and highly
priced game bird. On account of their
habit of roosting in compact groups on
the ground quail are often smothered
by drifting SHOWS which become hard
ened by sleet and ice. Loosely con-
structed shelters will prevent this. I
"Prairit chickens gladly accept corn
and sheaf grain when their natural
feeding places are covered in snow.
"Starvation and exposure are not
the only causes Of mortality among
birds in winter. Mink, weasels, house
cats, wandering dogs, foxes, and great !
horned owls are dangerous and de-
structive enemies of birds in the Win
ter season. Shelters which should be
prepared for quail. should be of such
loose construction that the birds may
easily escape these enemies. -. Il
"Game wardens will render all pos
sible assistance in the care of birds ;;
in winter and may be called upon for
instructions in preparation of feeding
stations, suitable food and other help
and advice. Every public school
should be center. Of bird care and
conservation in winter; the boys. and :
girls become intensely interested when
properly directed by their teachers.
Boy scout troops will gladly render :
valuable service in this work" - r.

A Suggestion.
Every farmer who can possible do
so should harvest a crop Of ice this
winter. Ice on the farm is really
more necessary than in town. 1t is
absolutely necessary to keep fresh
meat even short time in warm
weather. And ice is very essential
in the care Of sweet cream. In the
dairy department of the farm alone
the returns will more than pay for
the outlay, thus giving free of cost,
the other benefits of having ice on the
ifarm.-Jordan Independent.
