The revived interest in jet that came
about several months ago has by no
means diminished. Heavy Jet pendants
are worn about the neck. They really
are plaques made up of cut jet sequins.
They are worn about the neck sus-
pended from black enamel and gold

STANDARDIZED PICTURES

In nearly every story there is the
place where he called her by her first
name for the first time, and look Of
startled joy comes into her LIQUID
(nonalcoholic) eyes. There is the
place where she walks swiftly across
the room; meanwhile he sits with his
head down, utterly crushed by the
weight of the charge she brings
against him. An old familiar one is
where he asks if she will, and she
hides her face on his breast. Then
there is the one where he brushes her
lips against his, and the world melts
away into seeming nothingness. The
one in which a perfect lady, clad in
something sheer and clinging. sits up
in bed and points an automatic at the
gentleman burglar, is another old
timer.
All of these might as well be cut
to a certain pattren. They all look
alike, just as some artists draw the
same girl for every story, and other
artists have the same man for
model, whether he be a coalminer or
a man about town. Standardizing
such pictures would give the artists
more time to devote to golf, and it
would put an end to the habit the
reading public now has of expecting
something new and failing to find it.

crops for several years. Some OF
the farmers are so situated that they
have lost most of their crops for the
past three or four years and this
burden of course is very heavy on
them. Other were more fortunate
and have only had partial loss, and in
many instances replanting of some
other crop after the floods have sub
sided have resulted in a fair income
but at large outlay of money and
labor.
The situation reached an acute stage
this year when the river was the
highest it has been for about forty
years and the water stood at high
mark for several weeks and crops on
the bottom lands are an entire loss.
The farmers who have suffered de-
clared something must be done. and
feel of course it is up to them to take
the lead and push the matter through.
The grounds upon which they seek
relief are that these floods which in
undate their lands are intensified and

sheviki; if everybody is Bolsheviki
who doesn't agree with your views
about union labor; or the inrehitance
tax, or the Nicene creed; if you as
sumo that every workman who is
overcome by the lure of a spring day
and quits his job to go fishing is an
agent of organized Bolshevism; if you
assume that those pale and furtive
fmitators of Czolgosz who threw an
occasional bomb at mayor or an
attorney general are members of an
organized and disciplined army re-
ceiving orders from Trotzky; if you
assume that the labor agitators who
now call themselves the l. w. w. are
anything more than the Molly Mag
uires were in the early '70s, or the
Pittsburgh rioters in the late '70s,
or the Haymarket anarchists of the
'80s, or the Homestead strikers of the
'90s-if you assume all that, and if
you assume it on hot day, then you
may be able to work up sweat over
Bolshevism in America.
Compared to what happens in
real revolution, all that is happening,
or is likely to happen, in America isn't
much more than the Washington police
shooting Coxey's army off the White

water to the river from miles on
either side. They argue that il the
water from the prairies found there
way to the river In natural water
ways the flow of water would be SO
much more gradual that the river
which is the outlet of the drainage
systems would take care of the vol
ume in its regular banks or at least
the overflow would not be the menace
| that it is under present circumstances.
For this reason they seek relief from
the commonwealth.
A committee was appointed for the
purpose of carrying out a movement
for the abatement of taxes or portion
Of taxes on lands where the crops are
failure due to the high watre. This
relief at best is recognized as merely
temporary.
The chief thing that the farmers
desire is permanent relief from the re-
currence of the floods from river over
flow. They believe this would be as
sured by Strengthening and deepening
the river channel. This would be a
problem for the state and federal gov
ernments and committees were ap-
pointed to bring the matter before
the lawmaking bodies. This will take
time. There will have to be investi-
cations by legislative committees, sur
veys by engineers, etc., and there
would be question of the most prac-
teal thing to do, but if anything is
accomplished start must be made,
and the farmers in their meeting at
New Ulm Monday made the start.
They are entitled to have the problem
handled as expediently as possible.
It is not local problem. The con-
dition that exists along the Mime
sofa river holds true along practically
all the rivers of the state. In some
places the sitaution is more acute than
in others. 1t is up to the legislature
to adopt some policy to relieve the
situation. The federal government
ought to assist. If no effort is to be
made to make the rivers a better out
left for the volume of water which they
carry now, then it would appear that
some other form of relief should be .
given if this unfortunate situation is
caused or intensified by large benefits
to others. Morgan Messenger.
