Pre-Nuptial Shower

On Wednesday evening about
fifty young people gathered at
the home of Walter Varland. the
occasion being another surprise
on Lydia Marvick, and Maurice
Swanberg. The Varlands are de-
lghtful entertainers and the eve
ming was spent inplaying games
and having a social time. About
1880 another of Ruby Variand's
sumptuous suppers was served.
after which Rev. Thorson, q
groom of four days, acting as
toastmaster, gave an interesting
"reminiscences of COLLECT days at
st. Olaf when both he and Lydia
were students there. Several Of
those present were called upon
and all responder with some In In
teresting remarks and well wish
es. At late hour a large basket.
loaded with gifts brought in.
Amid much laughter the notes
were read and parcels opened.
Lydia and Maurice were recip-
tents of many beautiful pieces Of
linen. After the merrymakinq
subsidized somewhat, the men
mysteriously disappeared and up
on investigation we discovered
that the garage had been trans
formed into a court room with
Maurice as defendant, being
charged with homebreaking. It
was interesting to note that the
principal witness against Mau-
rice was, Otis, his to-be-brother-
ln-law. In his charge to the
jury Judge Varland admonish-
ed the jury to consider all tie
evidence against the defendant
but in rendering the decision to
give very little weight to his tes-
timony. The defendant was found
guilty in the first degree and the
court fixed to o'clock Monday the
9TH day Of July, 1919, as the
time for imposing sentence. In
the wee small hours of the morn
ing the guests departed pro-
nouncing the occasion q decided
success and the entertainers hard
to excel.

What America Celebrates

On July Fourth the American
people do not celebrate merely
the victory they gained ever a
mother country which was then
in the power of a court OF Ger
man ancestry and feeling. Nor do
the people celebrate merely the
anniversary of the time when
they attained the right o: self
control and individual expres s.
sion.
They also celebrate the final
triumph of certain distinctively
American ideas. On July 4
1776, the representatives of the:
American colonies, then only OBJ
scure little settlements on the
fringe of the untamed wilder
ress, met to discuss certain prin-
ciples of liberty very dear to
these hardy pioneers. They nded
by agreeing upon a Declaration
in which they set up certain stan
dards of liberty and democratic
government which sounded very
strange, revolutionary and Wis
ionary in the then monarchial
' orld.
This declaration could hardly
lie said to have fallen like a
bombshell in the Europe OF
kings and empires. It did not
make noise enough fora bomb
si.ell. The sages of the old worle,
laughed at it, as the outburst OF
a rustic people fer removed from
the centers of experience and
wisdom.
Yet the principles announced
by this obscure band of patriots
have overturned the whole world
The inspiration of liberty was
conveyed first to the peoples OF
Western Europe, several of
whom before many years either
threw off the yoke of kings al
together, or curbed their pow
ef.
But the great empires of Cen-
tral and Eastern Europe main
tained their scorn of American
liberty up to the recent war But
liberty has proved too strocg for
ti:em. 1t has put down the mighty
from their seats and exalted
them of low degree.
This principle, which had to
wait from July 4, 1776, to Nov.
@e.nber II, 1918, for full vindica-
ton, is what America really cele
brates on it's national anniver-
sary.

Royal Johnson Will Help BOYS
Get Pay

The following letter which ex-
plains itself was received from
Congressman Royal C. Johnson.
June 21, 1919
Dear Sir: 1t has been called
to my attention that there are
several thousand soldiers in
South Dakota who have not rece-
ived the full amount of travel pay
to which they are entitled, to-
wit: five cents per mile from
place of discharge to actual bona
fida residence. Arrangements
have been made to handle such
claims expeditiously; and this Of
flee would like to get in touch
with the enlisted men who have
travel pay coming. Settlement OF
such claims now means much to
the individual soldier.
l would appreciate it if you
would make short mention Of the
fact that such claims can be
settled at once through this of
flee, if each soldier affected will
forward his discharge certificate
or preferably a copy of the same
certificate by any recruiting of
ficer, together with a statement
OF, the facts of his case. | will be
giad also to assist in any insur
ance or allotment difficulties of
returning soldiers.
Very truly yours,
Royal C. johnson.

Fourth Of July Chronicles

Now as the time drew near
whers the Fourth should be cele-
brated, there was much concern
on the part of nervous reform
ers.
For it commemorateth the oc-
casion when Autocracy acquired
a dusky optic and Democracy put
on long trousers and developed a
60-horse-power punch.
And it is the occasion for the
| Earring loose of much tumult and
noise, brass bands and other ex-
pressions of joy.
The small boy reveleth with
red fire crackers and causeth
anxiety to his parents;
He who would fain be a candi-
date for office and he who loveth
to hear his own animated chin
are *. their glory as they maketh
the eagle to scream.
But Democracy had just black
ed Autocracy's other eye, and
the plea for a sane Fourth fell on
unhearing ears.
For the four-minute men long
ed to get into action again;
The cessation of war had eased
the gun-powder situation;
/ And of patriotism there was a
plenty.
Then the nerv Gus reformers
cried out in anguish, saying what
lshall we do?
And a wise man opened his
mouth and taught them, saying,
Seek, out thy cellars and the
places of merchants who do not
advertise;
Fill thine ears with cement
and put shock absorbers under
thy feet;
Provide theyselves with gas
masks that the oratory over
cometh thee not;
For this will be some Glorious
Fourth with every cylinder hit
ting.
What care we for sundry burns
and powder marks while we yet
have Mentholatum?
Then the nervous sought out
trenches and equippeth them
selves as they were bid;
While the wise drug merchant
jdisplayeth Mentholatum with his
fire works and doeth the business
of his life.

ing these feeds, and not with the
idea of fattening the cattle. They
were fed the first clipping from
50 acres of sweet clover. This
was cut high and made a good
seed crop. They were fed the
hay from % acres of alfalfa, SO
acres of corn, practically all put
through the silo by refilling
four times and 900 bushels of
barley from 2211a acres.
The sweet clover clipping
would hardly represent one-third
of the value of the crop. Figur-
ing at one third, would make a
total of ITO acres of crop fe,!
these steers, or a return of u
little over $4,000 per acre. Two
hundred ninety bushels of the
corn was husked out and fed
ground with barley. This grain
was fed during the last sixty
days at the rate of about IL
pounds per head, daily. During
the winter they were fed silape
and alfalfa or sweet clover hay
and some bundle fodder.
All the feed except 20 bushels
OF corn was grown on the farm,
ard there is sufficient manure in
the lots to cover sixty acres OF
rlore. The corn crop made excel
lent silage, but was not sufici.
emily mature to have been husk-
ed out and sold proftably.
These cattle were common

years old. They were bought in
the yards at South st, Paul for
S7.75 per hundred, and weighen
721 pounds each. Four head were
sold locally four kept out for the
Farmers Picnics July 9th at
Grand Forks and July 18th at
Aberdeen. Two will be roasted for
each picnic. Forty-eight of the
fty-two shipped back sold fo,
