WEDNESDAY, APRIL oath, 1918.
FOR THE MEN AT THE FRONT.

Lord God of hosts, whose mighty hand
Dominion holds on sea and land,
In Peace and War Thy will we see
Shaping tn larger liberty.
Nations may rise and nations fall,
Thy Changeless Purpose rules them all.
When Death flies swift wave or field,
Be Thou a sure defense and shield!
Console and succour those who fall,
And help and hearten each and all!
o hear peoples prayers for those
Who fearless face their country's foes!
For those who weak and broken lie,
In WEAKNESS and agony
Great Healer, to their beds of pain,
Come, touch, and make them whole again!
o hear a peoples prayers and bless
Thv servants in their hour of stress!
For those to whom the call shall come,
We pray Thy tender welcome home.
The toll, the bitterness all past,
We trust them to Thy love at last.
O hear peoples prayers for all
Who, nobly striving, nobly fall!
For those who minister and heal,
And spend themselves their skill, their ZEAL
Renew their hearts with Christ-like faith,
And guard them from disease and death.
And in Thine own good time Lord, send
Thy Peace on earth till Time shall end!

rHE American people are not half awake.
The American government is not half
awake. Today, year after our entrance
into the war; German might is mightier than

on the front gallantly fighting, but where there

J. J. Farrell, former state dairy and food COM
missioner, has filed opponent to the question
able Congressman C. R. Davis. Mr.. Farrell is
first class citizen, and has loyalty-patriotisn
plus; thereby supplying a sad lack in his oppo-
nent's makeup. Mr.. Farrell has fault, of
course, he allowed himself to become member
of the Democratic party in his early youth and
has never seen his way clear to rectify the mis-
take. However if he only beats Davis out Min
nesotans will be quite willing to forgive him
even this great sin.

man who used to wear boots, and had crop
of whiskers that made an alfalfa field look

We don't know where the fellow with the boots

about eight miles out of Redwood Falls right this

A TIME TO CHECK UP.

n lost of the things you do are done mere
MI ly from habit Mainly you eat, dress,
~ go about your business and your amuse-
ments, in a certain way, just because you are
used to that way. Only comparatively small
part of your actions is the result of reflection.
This is fine time to reflect. A good part OF
your spending is matter of habit. You have
never really considered whether four dollars
could not be made to answer quite satisfactorily
where you have been used to spending five. You
do not stop to look at hat marked three dol
lars if you have been used to paying twice that
But saving is the minor fraction. Producing,
earning, is the more important thing. And that,
also goes a good deal by mere use and want.
How long since you have checked up your spare
time and considered whether some of it could
not be turned to productive account? Or really
sat down with yourself and overhauled the shop
to see whether you could not cut off outgo
there and extend income here?
Not long ago an able and famous Wall Street
man-now giving most of his time to war work
reminded other distinguished Wall Street men
of a certain work that all of them might
well do They are directors in various big en-
I.terrpises-banks, railroads, insurance companies,
manufacturing concerns. He said every one of
them should give closer and more critical at
tention to the affairs of every concern he had
hand in, so as to make it more productive and
economical.
Everybody who earns and spends at all can
do that
This war may last five years-ten years. Al
ready it has wrought vast overhauling OF col
lective affairs. Europe is doing hardly anything
collectively now merely because it used to do
them that way. It is fine time for overhaul

Unless some of the automobile drivers in Red

that wise person who is sure he run car
at full speed on the crossings, around the cor

young-have fairly good horse sense; some of
them, notably one we saw the other day driving
at criminal rate of speed down Main Street,
has made a pretty fair success in his business
But it's fact, an unaccountable fact, that when
man of certain mental twist gets behind a
steering wheel, he is omnipotent, and men, wom-

broad world free for his own particular pleasure
There have been dogs killed in Redwood Falls
in the past; the only reason they weren't chill

As to the responding to the idea of
meatless and wheatless days, the
markets are now 10 full OF meat that
the food administration has declared,
There will be no more meatless days
until the markets are cleared of their
surplus meat"
Although there is now a shortage
of wheat, we have supplied our allies
with nearly twice as much wheat as
they asked of us. They originally
asked us for eighty-eight million bu-
shells, aid we have already supplied
them with one hundred and fifty
million bushels of wheat.
This very large scale OF conserva-
tion has come mainly from the volun-
tary efforts made by our true citizens
and patriots to help our country and
our starving allies.
