ALLIES RECALL SHIPS
ALLOCATED TO u. S,

The great German ship Imperator
and others which were "allocsted
to the United States by the Supreme
Allied War Council are to go back
to that body for disposition in some
way at some time IN the future.
1t is stated here ofhcially that the
Imperator is now being "recondi-
toned" that is to say, she is being
put back in the same shape in
which she was when taken over for
purposes Of transportation of troops
home from Europe by the United
States.
A government oficial said today
that no one could predict what the
Allied Council would do with the
German ships. Some might go to
England and the Imperator or any
other might go to England.

THE COMMUNITY CLUB

T the new Community Club House which open
( ed last Saturday the thinking public will see
not only place for exercise, amusement and
rest but beginning of real social future for
Redwood Falls, the word social being used in its
broad application. The club is not the fulfillment
of an idea or hope of few men-it is the begin
ming of a growth. What the result of this be-
ginning will be, what the benefit will be, what
effect the society of tomorrow will show from
the work of today. depends entirely upon the at
titude of the people of the city toward the move.
ment and upon their cooperation with those in
charge. In idea and ideal of such club are to be
found broad unity of purpose, similarity of
intention which does not stop at church bounda-
res, politics sex, which reaches out. to young
and old alike strengthening the ties without which
community cannot exist The privileges of the
rest room, which the Club is extending to all
visitors to the city strong link in the chain
which holds closely together the people of the
city, of neighboring towns and of all the sur
rounding country; in the gymnasium, with its
freedom and it's opportunities for enjoyment is
found the direct appeal to the play element which
forms part of the personality of every young
person in the community and to most = the old
er ones but above both of these and bigger than
either of them is the spirit upon which the club
is founded, the ideal of union and communion, of
getting together of knowing each other better.
of liking each other more. The Community Club
is going to be big success i. has started with
big momentum and momentum which assures
its perseverance and perpetuity It's growth may
be made through mistakes-it is impossible that
it could grow healthily otherwise. But it is going
to grow, it is going to stay it is going to bring
big things and good things to Redwood Falls. We
are saying special little prayer of thanks today
for the Community Club-we hope no one is so
unmindful of its virtues as to be unthankful. -

Are you going to take your Crouch out on
the boys or are you going to pay your share IN
the price Of Victory?
In private life the man who doesn't pay his
debts is a csheap-skate," dead-beat,' an unde-
sirable citizen But there is no term strong en-
ough to tell just what the man is who will not
see this job through. And the men who are
hanging back are the men who most blusteringlv
announced their patriotism only few short
months ago.
There are still few men-only few, we are
thankful to say--in various parts OF Redwood
County who have not taken their allotments.
Not because they have not the money, not be-
cause they cannot well afford to, but because they
are "stingy," or because they have "grouch" and
they are taking it out on the Veterans Of the
World War.
There is still time for them to take their place
among the REAL citizens Of the County.
But will they?

WE WANT ROADS.

~ EDWOOD County like every other county ID
TX the state of Minnesota wants good roads
The experience of the past several weeks
not only makes the county want good roads, but
it makes her stand right up in meeting, lift her
voice and DEMAND good roads roads that will
make if possible for the people Of the rural COM
munities to get to their centers of supply and to
get about freely whenever they wish, whether it
has rained the night before or not.
We want roads that will be findable in the
spring when the snow goes away,-not the kind
that have sunk out of sight so that wheel must
sink to the hub before it finds bit of gravel to
rest on.
We want roads that will not cost US more for
maintenance in a few years than was paid for
their original constructions then not give US
a travelable surface save for a few months of
each year.
We want roads that make the use of an automo-
bile practical for all time save for the times of
deepest snow-roads useable during rain storms
and Immediately after the snow has gone in the
spring. There are some who still use horse rigs,
there are even some of US who still use our pedal
extremities as our chief menas of locomotion. But
a road that is good enough for automobile is
alright for horse or human to walk on SO what
suits the automobile is plenty good enough. And
the car is the means of transaction, of traffic
and travel for the future, and the road makers
must adjust themselves to that fact.
In short we want good roads. If the hard sur
faced road is the best one, that is what we want
The need is apparent and the present is the time
to decide for the future. Let not repeat the
experience of the spring of 1919 without having
at least taken some step to improve conditions
The County is, we believe, unanimous in ack-
nowledging it sneeds and desires The fulfill
ment of these is matter for the Commissioners
to decide. It is up to them!
May they see their way clearly!

THE DEAD TOWN

town that never has anything to do in .
public way is on the road to the cemetery. Any
citizen who will do nothing for his town is help
ing to dig the grave, says the Interlake Tribune.
A man that cusses the town furnishes the coffin.
The man who is selfish as to have no time from
his own business to give to city affairs is making
the shroud. The man who will not advertise is
driving the hearse The man who is always
pulling back from any public enterprise throws
bouquets on the grave. The man who is so stingy
as to be bowling hard times, breaches the funeral
sings the doxology, and thus the town lies buried
from all sorrow and care.-Exchange.

STUDY THE PRICES.

Business men should face the facts. To talk
reverently of 1884 prices is to speak dead
language today. The buyers of the country,
since the armistice, have made an unexampled
attack upon prices through their waiting attitude
and yet price recessions have been insignificant.
The reason is that we are on new high-price
level, which will be found stubborn reality. Bus
mess men are going to find out that the clever
man is not the man who waits, but the one who
finds out the new price facts and acts according

observe the eight-hour rule, and they work
Sundays. They are among the hardest-work
ed and least appreciated of all workers. The
average salary of preachers in twelve lead
