CIGARETTE LAW

The ever growing habit of male
school students under the age of Is

the streets and in public places in
Slayton has become so obnoxious to
the elderly people of the city that the
editor has been requested 20 publish
the first two sections of Chapter 348

the last session of the legislature.
The law is self-explanatory and un-

The sections follow:
An act to regulate the sale of cigar

for the violation thereof.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of
the State of Minnesota:

general interest and attraction, such
perhaps, as annual Chautauqua and
such features as will interest and az

The Old Historic
Sioux Trail

Probably the most historic and with
all beautiful drive in the state of Min
nGSota is along the. route mapped out
by the Sioux Historic Trail, from s..
Paul to Pembina, n d. The trail pas
ses through historic towns along the
east bank of the Minnesota south OF
st. Paul, Shakopee, Jordan, Belle
PLANE and lie 5ueu~. II crosses the
river at the latter place and passes
thru Traverse des Sioux and st. Peter.
Again crossing to the east bank, Ka-
sofa and Mankato are on the line of
the trail. From Mankato the trail
passes through CORTLAND and New
Ulm is reached. From New Ulm the
trail leads to Fl. Ridgely and to
Fairfax, Franklin, Birch Cooley, Nor
ton, Lower Sioux Agency, Redwood
Falls, Wood Lake Battle Ground, Up
per Sioux Agency and Granite Falls.
From Granite Falls the trail passes
through many places of interest,
among which are Montevideo, near
where Camp Release is located, Old
and New Lac Qui Parle camps, Orion
vile, Breckenridge, Fl. Abercrombie,
Fargo, N. D., Mooreland, Crookston

national boundary line. The Fairfax
Standard has this to say of the trail:
The idea of the Sioux Historic Trail
originated at Fairfax, and was first
discussed publicly at Fort Ridgely. Il
is most fitting that this great public
state of Minnesota from east west
and traversing nearly the entire length
of state, should have had its incep-
ton at Fort Ridgely, the most cele-
brated historic spot along the entire
route. 1t has been appropriately
called the Gettysburg of the Sioux
Indian outbreak. It's history is nation
wide, and it has attracted some very
prominent visitors, among them being
General Sherman, General Sheridan
and some claim that Jeff Davis visit
ed the fort.
This famous battle ground has held
its own through all the years since it
played such an important part in max
ing Minnesota safe place for settle
ment and has grown in popularity
from year to year.

A Poem In Honor

rafting good poem by Wallace Irwin,
the noted writer who contributes to
many American magazines. The ma

but was used almost constantly in
hauling ammunition to the front and
was of such service that the marines
painted Croix de Guerre on the hood
of the engine. Here is Mr. Twins tri-

And named her Elizabeth Ford.

For the Hindenburg line, O Lord!
She hated a Hun like a son-of-a-gun,
The kaiser she plumb abhorred.
