LOCAL NEWS ITEMS

Born-To Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh

nine pound boy. Hugh's friends
hope that with proper care he will re
cover.
Of course there may come a rain
before this item reaches the public but
at this writing the weather is mighty
dry and hot and has been for the last
week. 1t is not only hot but the wind
has been blowing at about thirty miles
per hour most of the time, carrying a
fog of dust with it which is exasperat-
ing to the housewives and mighty
hard on the victims of hay fever. The
farm land is also too hard to be pre-
pared for wheat. The hope is that
there will be change for the better
in the weather pretty soon-or right
soon-which will cool the temperature
settle the dust and put the soil in
proper shape for the farmers to SOW
wheat.
Leo. w. Faulkner, of the 7th Reg
ulars, 3rd division, arrived from over
seas, last Sunday morning Leo tells
some interesting stories of the great
war After the armistice was signed
the 3rd division was emit to Germany
along the Rhine where it remained
until August the sth, when they were
ordered home.

AFTER SEVEN YEARS
Wa-Keeney Testimony Remains
mistaken

Time is the best test of truth. Here
is a Wa-Keeney story that has stood
the test of time. 1t is story with a
point which will come straight home
to many of US.
A. j. johnson, Madison street, Wa
Keeney, says: 81 was bothered by q
pain in my back, just over my kidneys.
I had to get up several times at night
to pass the kidney secretions. The
trouble kept me in misery for about
a year and the different medicines
I tried had no effect. I finally got
Doan's Kidney Pills at w. w. Gibson's
Drug Store and they cured me of the
attack
OVER SEVEN YEARS LATER,
Mr.. johnson said: ~Doan's Kidney
Pills are the best kidney medicine
I know of. The good health I now
enjoy is due to an occasional use of
this medicine"

A town with never anything to do
in a public way is its way to the
cemetery. Any person who will do
nothing for his town is helping to dig
the grave. A man that cusses the
town furnishes the coffin The man
who is selfish as to have no time
from his own affairs, is making the
shroud. The man who will not adver-
tise is driving the hearse. The man
who is always pulling back from any
public enterprise throws bouquets on
the grave. The man who is so stingy
as to be bowling hard times, breaches
the funeral, sings the doxology. And
thus the town lies buried from all
sorrow and care.-Mankato Advocate

DICTAGRAMS

Old ST over-fed himself one evening
recently and paid for his indiscretion
by an attack of nightmare toward
morning. He dreamed that he met
President Wilson walking the railroad
track near the bridge at the south end
of Cakes street. The president shook
hands with him and inquired about
Uncle Heck and Aunt Simply and the
other neighbors. Old ST asked him
how he was getting along and the
president told him that the railroad
business pretty punk and he
thought of getting into some other
line of work. Seeing that he wanted
to change the subject Old ST asked
him what was on his mind. Then the
president took him by the arm and
led him down the bridge and whisper
ed in his ear: @Un1ess you adopt the
league of nations just as I wrote it,
without any evasion, mental reserva-
ton, or elf-interpretation whatso-
ever, the high cost of living will never
come down and I will not be able to
keep you out of war next time" The
sudden shock of this startling infor-
nation caused Old ST to wake up in a
spasm that amost jerked him out of
bed but there are lot of other peo-
pie who are still wandering in their
sleep and waiting to be fooled again.
| Laying all dreams aside it appears
| reas onab1e that some sort of league
of strong and well-disposed nations is
the only way to curb the warlike ten
| denotes of those turbulent powers
1 whose idea of national greatness con-
sists in taking advantage of smaller
and weaker states. But on the other
hand it should not appear new or
strange to the people of the United
| States that it takes time, and ought
to take time, to form league of ma
| tons If it is to be effective or of last
ing benefit 1t required four months
for convention of Americans to write
the constitution of the United States
and when it was finished it was a
series of compromises, especially in
regard to the com parat1ve power be-
tween the small states and the larger
states in the supreme council, or con-
gress- 1t took a year after that to get
the constitution adopted by nine
| states, which was the number neces-
sary to make it binding upon the nine
and it was three years before the last
of the thirteen ratified it. Moreover
two of the larger states refused to
ratify until the friends of the consti-
tuition agreed or promised that il
should be amended by bill Oh
rights" consisting of eight or ter
amendments, and these amendments
are fairly comparable to the propos-
ed reservations and interpretations Cd

nificant yet is the fact that the inhab-
I Itants of the several states of tie

ed from common stock, and practic-
ally all speaking one language, while
i on the other hand the people to be

ing almost every known tongue OF

THE RISING TIDE OF PEACE.

Senator Borah and Senator Reed are brilliant men.
fighter for what he thinks is right and just regardless
of what other people think And he has a reputation
farther thinking most of the time the way the pub
lie thinks.
This being the case, it is difficult to imagine how
Senator Borah arrived the conclusion he recently
nounced dramatically regarding the League of Nations
which president has fought for and practically
accomplished during his trip abroad.
Senator Borah's chief objection to the proposed
league-he objection from which said he could
be won, by the president at the dinner at which
the executive hoped to explain to the members of
who would have to deal with it aterwas that it
did not recognize the Monroe Doctrine.
By what logic arrives the conclusion there
will be any need for Monroe Doctrine after the estab
lishment of the proposed League Nations difficult
understand The constitution proposed league
given by the President in Paris the Monroe
Doctrine to the wordgves its principles recognition by
every nation signatory to the of peace and
forever protects the sovereignty small nations
they That includes all that the Monroe Doc
trine intended could do-and multiplies ii
to the ends of the earth. 1t is acceptance in fact
not tacitly onlyby the world of the principle this
pHblic gave birth to and which embodies the spirit of
freedom of mankind which has been the bulwark of
nation from its beginning
President Wilson is the greater statesmen of the
two He knew the heart of the people of world when
in his Boston speech he challenged the Borahs and the
Reeds and the other critics of the World League plan
to test it before the tribunal of the people He knew
the world is sick of and strife that sanity
at last returning He knew that the plan evolved holds
the greatest promise for peace eveore that has
been devised.
The great world peace movement rising tide, and
the Borahs and the Reeds will be swallowed up it's
