INSURANCE FOR
ILL ii II II hUILL
(NIinneapolis Tribune)

In discussing the pending bill relat-
ing to workmen's compensation insur.
ance, u morning contemporary in
st. Paul describes two groups ais es-
pecially interested In that measure
the employers and the employees. Eek.
cept these two groups says cur con
temporary, there Is no interest con-
cerned directly
On the contrary, there Is another In,
terest more vitality concerned, in our
judgment, than either of the two men,
toned. That interest is the general
public. We are not so very deeply In
terested in the question whether the
employer buys his insurance from an
insurance company or is assessed for
1t by the state. Nor are we very deep.
ly concerned as to whether the en-
ploye gets his compensation from an
insurance company or through the
state, provided he gets it and gets 1t
promptly. The, employer appears to
favor the system now iii vogue. Wheth
er the employee would profit by the
change a well be questioned. We
know that experience has not been
satisfactory In all cases where the
state has administered the fund.
But what we ore deeply interested
in y the principle involved and the
tendency Of legislation Of this charac-
ter. Here is q form OF legitimate pri-
vate business which, it is proposed
shall be taken over by the state. AS
this in contravention, in principle at
the Tribune has already commended
least Of both the policy and the con.
stitution Of the state. 1t is a step In
the direction of socialized state,
which is bound to lead to conse-
quences that we ought not to invite.
1t is socialistic, in principle and in op.
Grafton. If the state can go int the
business OF accident Insurance., there
is no reason why 1t might not go into
any other kind of insurance. II it
may go into Insurance, it may go into
manufacturing or merchandising or
farming.
The proposition Is perfectly plain
and well understood. What we would
aepreea1e is tsat za4ae Leg .iSre
should leave in its record a precedent
so mischievous and dangerous as this.
We hope that the sober Judgment of
the senate will decide against action
SO unwise and against a policy 50 mis-
chievous.

S6,004,0Oo FOR FURs

The largest fur sale the world ha:
ever known occurred recently in st
Louis, Mo. In six days the sales
amounted to $6,004,000. Sixty-fou1
kinds of fur, known to dealers in every
part of the world, were listed. They
comprised more than 100000 pelts.
Every state in the Union, every prov
ince in Canada and 25 foreign coun-
tries contributed.
The United States government was
directly interested. In two hours sell
ing, seal skins and foxes owned by the
government were sold for an aggregate
of $161,169. On the other hand, large
part of the offerings of cheaper skins,
suitable for lining aviators' coats and
coats for soldiers in the Siberian army,
were purchased by Uncle Sam.
The demand for all kinds of furs
was unprecedented during the entire
week Muskrat fur that sold a few
years ago for few cents pelt, sold as
high as 1925, while a record price of
81 for skunk was reached. Another
fur that sold higher than ever before
was lynx, the record skin bringing $50.
Fisher sold as high as $102 and mar
ten at top price of $sl.

BUSINESS PEP TALK

At the beginning of New Year i
good time to heed the following sug
gestions given by the president of
business college.
IF there were only one way on eartl
to make a living, there might be som,
excuse for engaging in business with
out thoroughly believing in it.
But there are thousands of occupa
lions offering variety, suited to every
person in the world, including the man
who dislikes his work. Disloyalty, in
subordination, grumbling and profanity
are the earmarks of the 'tjob-hater
and the faithful performance of his
task is impossible.
The words "loyalty and duty are
despised by the growler, and lived up
to and glorifed only by the man who
loves what he does and believe in his
work
For me to point out the fallacies of
working at something you dislike, with
out suggesting remedy, would be dis
couraging
To them, who do not believe in the
business in which they are engaged, l
suggest that they try first to see if
they can like it. Do not change unless
it is absolutely necessary, for "three
moves are as bad as a fire. Put your
personality into your work. Figure out
the possibilities in your line and then
plan to be top-notcher." If you
are an employe, then serve your en-
Dleyer so well that he must either pro-
e you Or let you go to some more
progressive competitor. If you have
reached the limit of your possibilities
as an employe, then launch out into a
business of your own. Start on small
scale, but serve your patrons well.
Build a reputation for square dealing,
and business will come your way.
If all this fails to interest you, then
you had better decide to do something
else. Search your own mind first.
Study your capabilities and your in
clinations. Then, during quiet hour,
when you are undisturbed, weigh all
sides and angles of the problems con-
fronting you, and make your decision.
When that is done, don t let any one
advise or argue you out of your chosen
path Stay right with it until You win.
It may mean much hard work, worry,
md encouragement; but if you have
he :" vision = and the purpose you
will win gloriously, and you will like
-onr work.

york, likes his wife, his children, his /

If any of our readers think it is an
easy job to get up newspaper every
week, they should try it. Just for a
sample of what it is like, sit down
some leisure moment and write a few
items describing such local events as
you can call to mind. Then reflect
that sheet of note paper will contain
about enough material for about two
inches, or one-tenth of column. Now
fill from five to ten columns every week,
hustle the subscribers, look after the
funds, see to the advertising, make
up the forms, run the press, take turn
at type setting, kick the job press few
thousand times, and you have an idea
of what the country printer does for
