Holden, was trying to pull out the
tigers whiskers in room 1856. His
wife had been trying, to get him
home, but without result. Finally,
when the clock in the steeple was
striking 3 a. m, Madam Holden
called up and informed the night
clerk that if her husband did not
come home at once, she would come
up there and yank him out. He then
departed for his happy fireside.
Although "Sunny AL" Wagner
does not often encourage nor par
ticipate in the delights of running
women into the hotel, a registration
as man and wife is not often ques-
toned or investigated. Any number
of male guests, regularly there, have
long visits from their wives" with
out question or complaint.
Busy Thera Mcdonald.
For weeks at a time, Thera Nc
Donald, lovely, authenticated
creature, somewhat like Theda Bara,
has habit of taking room at hotel
Superior. She was in room 2O6 for
about three weeks some time ago
and carried on her sinful service as
a siren all the time. She most grac-
iously gave the bell hops 20 per
cent of her fees for each and every
male customer headed in at her door.
in other words, for every IS earned,
the bellboys got $1.00.
It is credibly stated that, when
business is brisk, Thera had money
transactions with as high as ten and
even fifteen men in one night. Some
of the men escorted to Thera's bou-
doir often tipped the bell boy dol
lar, thus enabling him to make
money both going and coming.
Madam Minnie Adams, of Duluth
Superior, occupied room 352 for
some time and no reports Of lone
someness were heard from her. She
also had no trouble in paying her
hotel bill when she departed.
But all the sinful folk in hotel Su-
perior are not poor, weak, unfortu-
hate women. Big, strong men room
there and act shamefully in their
own peculiar ways.
Foster Leads Double Life.
For example, there's H. G. Foster
who made $500 a month as chief of
machinists at Whitney Brothers
Shipyards until his discharge some
time ago. Foster has wife and
three children in Duluth. Last fall,
the forest fires burned their Du-
luth home out Woodland way. He
sent his wife and babies to his
mother-in-law and took room near
the shipyards.
Mrs. Foster wanted to be near
er lord and master, so came to his
room, expecting to give him a happy
surprise. He was not happy over the
surprise and, telling her that the
neighborhood was not highly re-
spectacle one for his wife to live,
thrust her back onto her mother -
Duluth.
Soon after that, Foster moved to
the hotel Superior where another
woman posed as his wife. The real

SET ASIDE
BY TRAPP

Among the many holidays desig-
mated by law and public custom an
nually in our beloved country, there
Is none whose observance and whose
ceremonies should appeal more
strongly to the pride and patriotic
consciousness of every true Ameri-
can than the day which has been
set apart to celebrate the accom-
plishments, the value and import.
ance Of labor in the progress and
advancement of the human race.
Intelligent labor is the founda-
ton on which the civilization, the
health, the happiness, the prosperity
and the future welfare OF rne ...,man
family has been established and
must continue to depend, and it is
hut meet and proper that in nation
ot workers day should be set apart
for the proper acknowledgment o.
the obligation and respect which is
the due of all who toll.
We stand in the shadow Of an
industrial upheayal that threatens
to halt our progress, retard devel-
opment, cripple industry, dissipate
prosperity, arouse class hatred and
seriously menace the welfare and
happiness of all our people Let us
hope that out of the deliberations
and observances of this day, set
apart to do honor to labor will arise
the spirit and the inspiration in the
hearts and minds of employers and
employees in all the industries at
war, to compromise their differences
through mutual concessions and save
themselves, their families and the
millions who without offense or
fault must suffer hardships and pri-
vations as the result of their further
failure to agree.
In this spirit and in view of the
conditions that surround us, and
with a sincere and abiding respect
for the great cause Of labor, J.,
therefore, in performance of the
duty imposed upon me by law, re.
spectfully declare and proclaim

KEEP LABOR EMPLOYED

Washington Post-The executive de-
partments concerned with the val are
trying to put into effect a "tapering
down process whereby contracts for
war materials shall be cut off without
abrupt dislocation of industry and Ia
subjects before the administration,
and President Wilson may find it nee
essary to consider it while he is
abroad on matters that seem even
more important. The prosperity and
contentment of millions of men are
dependent upon the success of the
government in transferring their labor
into other channels without throwing
them out of work or %subjecting them
to loss by removing them and their
families to other places of employ
ment.
American labor has been loyal and
efficient during this war. Unless it
had been so the war could not have
won so quickly. Now that the labor
of millions is not needed in purely wal
work it is incumbent upon the govern
ment to readjust conditions in such
manner as to avoid injustice to labor
1t would be far better to continue the
manufacture of war munitions than t6
throw men wholesale into the streets
at the beginning of winter. Some
times, in an emergency like this, gov
ernments solve the problem by build
ing harbor works, roads. public build
ings, etc. Economy or money is no
so important as maintenance of so
cial order. If the world is to turf
%bolshevik the United States govern
ment must be doubly diligent II

ism in this country.

one bill prohibits religious teaching

applies to all foreign languages.
Early in the spring the work of ex-
tending the sewerage system of Madi-

at the last annual municipal election

the sum of $4,000 for this work.
A mid-winter fair will be held in
Canton by the Cincoln county farm

The meetings will feature agricultural
addresses and demonstrations by spec

and others, attention to be given 10
problems concerning mems, women's
and children's work on the farm. Sill

The county commissioners of Per
kins county, at their annual meeting
last September, in the interest of war
economy, failed to make an appropria-
ton for good road work throughout
the county. Therefore there now is no
money available for such work and not
and summer along this line. At their
meeting in September, however, the
commissioners will make the neces-
sary appropriation for good road work

be among the best in the state.
The question of whether Beadle
county is to have a new courthouse is
being discussed in Huron and the mat
ter has been taken up at meetings Of
business men. 1t is pointed out that
the present building, which was erect
ed in the early SOS, is not adequate
for the needs of the county and that
the vaults are in no condition to with
stand a fire should one occur. Mort
cages, bonds and other securities val
ued at close to $500, 900 are deposited
in the vaults, together with other val
liable records which could not be re-
placed if the building should be de-
strOyed, it is said.

HOUSTON ADVISES EXTENSION

Cooperative highway construction
under the federal aid road act must
be resumed as quickly as possible
in full measure, d. f. Houston, the
Secretary of Agriculture, stated at a
conference of editors of agricultural
journals held recently in Washington.
This should be done, he urged, not
only because of the Importance Of
good roads, but also because of
the desirability of furnishing worthy
projects on which unemployed labor
during the period of readjustment
may be engaged. There will be many
things suggested for which federal
and state funds will be sought. Some
of these will be unworthy. Clearly
such public works as roads are worthy,
and it would be in the public interest
to make available larger appropria-
tons from the federal treasury to be
used separately or in conjunction with
state and local support.
From ~unexpended balances of fed
eral appropriations for the last few
years, from state funds beyond what
was necessary to meet the federal al
lotments, and from amounts available
during the current fiscal year, approx
imately $4,000, 900 will be available
for expenditure during the calendar
year. Next year, if all the balances
should be expended during this year,
and we should have to rely solely on
the funds accruing next year, there
will be about $40, OOO, 900 from federal
appropriations, and probably more
than this amount from state sources,
according to the Secretary's state
ment. The states, in addition, will ex-
pend sums in excess of what they have
assigned, or will assign, for federal
aid road projects.
