The Candy Press has thrilling statement de-
claring that it recently rained fish at Candy and
that the cisterns have become the popular fish
ing resports of the city since that time That's
nothing at all! The Mayor of Redwood
Falls states that he had ocassion to visit one
of his farms recently and found the cat fish fat
tening on the top leaves of, the corn stalks The
Mayor didn't say so, but we suspect that this
particular farm adjoins the city limits of Wa
basso.

WE ADMIT WE'RE EASY!

Most people in the northwest remember
the famous LIE Sueur Tyre tales that appeared
in many of the big dailies some years ago
and attracted wide interest. These fantastic
fiction tales have been revived for LIE Sueur
paper and as result many of the editors
of the editors of the state swallowed hook,
line and sinker last week by publishing as
true story of current news weird tale OF
the finding of a mummified body of man
in the trunk of an oak tree by farmer near
LIE Sueur. The tale was one of Ora j. Par
ker's best, but we were surprised to see such
keen editors as Joe Reynolds, Phil Liesch,
Bess Wilson and many others, fall for it.
(Olivia Times.)
We admit we are one of the proverhial suckers
one of whom is born per minute. But we've look
ed upon Joe Reynolds and Phil as our leaders TO
so long that it never occurred to US to questio
their judgement in this. Anyway it is a good oil
tale-we'ye clipped it and put it in scrap boo
so that our successor can use it ten or fiftee
years hence and the public of the future wi
read it with just as much enjoyment as the public
of the past and the present.

the laws of nature which have been wrought by

BODY is the secret of health; conformity to the
laws of the social order which have been wrought
bv the Creator in the souls of men is the secret
of justice, liberty, and peace
Justice is conformity to divine law.
Liberty is voluntary self-enforcement of di-

Peace is habitual harmony with divine law.
Democracy is the spirit of justice, liberty, and

Our gentlemen will not give peace to the world

Probably our Government is more yearly just
than the government of any other existing nation
But it is not wholly just long as the poor and de-
fenseless- whether white or black-are killed on
suspicion. without trial and without chance for
self-defense; so long thousands OF children are
allowed by a wealthy nation to grow up IN lg-
norance without any opportunity for education;
so long as plague spots are permitted to remain
in sections of our great cities, sending out poison
germs of ignorance and crime to infest the land
The summons of Abraham Lincoln to his fell
low-men in 1865 was a summons to do justly
with malice toward none, with charity for all,
with firmness in the right as God gives US to see
the right, let us finish the work we are IN" That
summons is as appealing now as then. 1t IS the
summons to the young men and young women
graduating from colleges and high school to-day
to complete the work their fathers began when
they declared their belief chat all men are Great
ed eoual:.that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain unalenable rights; that among these
are life, liberty. and the pursuit of happiness;
that to secure these rights, governments are IN
stituted among men."-The Outlook.

Your sympathy with the stricken city of Fer
gus Falls isn't very deep if it doesn't reach quite
way into your pocket Out of safe and unmo-
Tested and prosperous condition the State of Min
nesota and the inhabitants thereof should see
that the help which money can give should be
given to Fergus. Make your gift one of graft
tude to beneficent providence that your family
and your home and your business have not been
crushed by a force such as dealt so terrible a
blow to your neighbcr. A gift prompted by a
sense of thankfullness is apt to be much larger
than the one prompted by sense of duty We
have no law-made duty toward Fergus Falls-only
an opportunity and a privilege.

L ! hot weather of a hundred and forty-three
years ago, but it was not wound up for
keeps country is like road or house or
any other basic tools of mankind. Maintenance
alone enables it to defy time, and nothing else is
a substitute. War wear is hard also on nation
grinding down the surface coat, prying into fis-
sures, loosening stones, and scattering dust, as
might not have happened under the milder
stresses of peace. That is what our fathers built
against, and built that those coming after might
in turn do their duty by the land. If there are
those who aim to overthrow law and order, they
must be held in check; if they are ignorant of
what this country is, they must be taught.-Col-

COURAGE.

COURAGE.
Courage is not just
To bare ones bosom to the sabre thrust,
Alone in daring.
Courage is to grieve,
To have the hurt, and make the world believe
You not caring
Courage does not lie
Alone in dying for cause To die
Is only giving
Courage is to feel.
The daily daggers of relentless steel
And keep on living.
Douglas Malloch.

the American people. They look to us
as the human agency to extricate
them from the frightful situation in
which they have been left as a conse-
quence Of the war.
If we should fail to aid them, starva-
ton and the winters cold would go far
to completing the work done by the
unspeakable Turk.
l have not seen with my own eyes
the misery in which the Armenians
now exist. l have been spared that.
But the reports which have been
brought in by agents of the Near East
Relief and by representatives of the
Peace Conference paint a picture of
wretchedness inconceivable to those
who have not first hand impression
Of the savagery of the Mussulman.
ExiIed From Homes.
Since the beginning Of the war the
Turkish Armenians have been largely
refugees from their homes. A simple
agricultural people, they have been
exiles from their farms, deprived of
all opportunity to support themselves.
Year by year their sufferings have in
creased. Now, a year after fighting
has ceased, they are still living the
life of nomads, able to continue to
keep alive only by virtue of American
philanthropy.
These homeless people-"flthy inf
dels" to the Turk-were good enough
to exert their poor might In our be-
half while the war was still In the
balance. Massacres of a half century
had not so broken their spirit chat
they. dared not fight for right and for
democracy when justice was the issue.
We accepted their aid then. Surely
we shall not pass them by without
compassion now.
The day has passed when any self
respecting man dares permit absorp-
ton in his own personal affairs to ex-
clude consideration of his neighbor's
well being. No honorable man can
knowingly allow his neighbor to hun
ger or to go unclothed. The Christian
peoples Of the Near East are our
neighbors. The money needed to re-
lieye them can be spared without
causing any man. woman or child In
the United States to suffer. +.

have been murdered by their Turkish
oppressors. Hungry, terror stricken
