However, q number Of the boys
are now back and the member
ship is again increasing.
We believe that a band is an
asset to any small town, giving
it considerable advertising and
aiding in keeping up community
interest. And anything that is
worth while needs encourage
ment, and it cannot be expected
to be kept up without some lit
tie sacrifice now and then.
No amateur band can expect
to keep the same membership
for a very long period of time,
although if this was possible it
would be the means of assisting
considerable in making it a good
band. But there are always
some members coming and go
ing. And here is where the sac
rificc comes in. If we are not
willing to sacrifice some time for
a band it cannot be expected to
be kept up.
The excuse of mo time" by
young men between Is and 20 is
taken very lightly. If they have
not the time to rehearse at that
age when should they ever get
the time?
AS before mentioned we be-
lieve band is one Of the organi-
cations which make for communi-
ty interest and should be en-
couraged. If we work along
every day on the farms. stores
and shops and think mostly of
dollars and cents some day we
may become wealthy, but the
town becomes dead and before
we know it our young people are
drifting to the Cities for lack OF
life in smaller communities.

ncsota as d whole have been very
kind toward those in need, as,
sisting many on their feet again
and reducing suffering to the
least possible minimum. Thous,
ands and thousands of dollars
have been given by people tc
others whom they do not know
have never seen and may never
see. Truly these are humani,
tartan acts and when we stop
and think a moment we realize
that this Is a pretty good ole
world.

has been suggested by one OF
our readers that there ought to

To people living here who are

may not seem dangerous but to
strangers coming from the north
and going over that hill and inn
mediately running onto the

should be a sign there indicating

shipped across on the first boat
going over. We have no use for
them here and all good foreign
born Americans will say the
same. But the disturbances in
America during the World War
were not as alarming as many Of
the daily newspapers and cheap
politicians tried to make out. AS
a whole all foreigners behaved
very good and thousands and
thousands Of Germans took up
arms for their country and went
across the sea to fight against
their own relatives. They APP
preciated American liberty and
were willing to die for it's cause.
As one generation succeeds an
other the foreign languages in
America gradually dwindle
down. They don't need to be
forced out, and by trying to force
them out it is only breeding dis
content and ill-feeling. Foreign
ers surely bring something good
with them to America or we
would have lot of poor citizens
here. Let those good things be
weaved into Americanism.
America is the melting pot Of
the world and with ideals of
every country on the globe
properly weaved together this is
mighty good and free country
in which to live.

so if somebody will come along
and buy chairs, giving the boys
something to sit on, and ON

will be appreciated.

If men in the cities nowadays
are crying about being out Of
work they are certainly crying
without reason, for farmers are
going begging for labor. The

for instance, and when number
of farmers combine this product
in a cooperative and attractive

chance to get a premium for
their product, and if there be 10

better if there are 100 cars or
1000 cars strictly the same grade
the better they will sell and the
more there will be wanted.

agent. he doesn't care as long as
he sells good bill of fruit trees.
In q few years another agent is
getting the territory while the
local and responsible nurseryman
is starving to death if he is only
an honest producer and not a
stock talker too. Travelling
agents are becoming a real
nuisance--in my opinion;-they
know their business and they
have no lack of camouflage argu-
ments like this. that the termi-
nal packing plant is founded on
the same principles as the CO
operative associations in Den
mark. You are not the first one
and will not be the last one
either that will be deceived by a
smooth talker. but experience
has learned us that true and
successful cooperation begins at

ers admit that and practise that
the sooner we will get reasonable
returns for our labor in cash and

With summer heat swimming
is now the popular thing again
down at the river. But as there
are so many family picnics and
gatherings of different sorts
along the banks of the river the
boys should always wear swim

Cooperation

Mr.. l.. A. Larson, what is your
definition of cooperation, or
what do you mean by
the word cooperation. Co
operation is practised in many
different forms and DISCUSSES.
When two or more men join and
form a stock company their
capital is supposed to cooperate
under efficient management to
earn as much more capital as
possible and so do Swift & Co.
and the 100 independent packing
plants you referred to in your
article in Askov American No.
38. And you say most of them
are successful and some are part
ly cooperative and some real.
Your Terminal Packing Co. as far
as | can see, is organized on the
same principle as Swift & Co.
and the others. You are going
to compete with these in the
open market in buying live stock
and selling the finished product;
that is legitimate business but
not true cooperation such as we
practised and they still practise
it in Denmark where we made
packing plants, creameries and
shipping associations a success
more than 80 years ago.
Our buttermaker, Mr.. Christi
ansen. made a remark couple
Of weeks ago that there is only
a very few truly cooperative
creameries in Minnesota all
though perhaps more in proper
ton than in any other state in
the Union But the majority
are cooperative in name only and
consequently don't stand half a
chance to make a success and
they have an everlasting fight on
their hands with the centralizers
on the one side, and worst of all
between neighbors according to
which side they deliver their
cream or milk. and that does not
tend to foster community spirit
and a prosperous neighborhood,
too many have adopted the
slogan everybody for himself
and the devil take the hindmost"
and you are liable to experience
the same difficulty in your pack
ing plant. Some little trouble
and discomfort comes UP in the
beginning; as you have no delive-
ry guaranty you might be broke
in twinkling. I agree with our
buttermaker that we have some
cooperative creameries. but l
have yet to discover the first
true cooperative packing plant
in U. S. | hope we will have
them, and lots of them: we need
them very bad indeed, and we
need true cooperation in selling
our products such as live stock
and potatoes. and when we
farmers in Pine county are
reasonably well organized and
have for instance a potato house
and a marketing association at
most or all the railroad stations
we might want to build a factory
to take care of our small and Gull
potatoes. but we must begin at
home. in our community. We
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1919-06-26

We must learn, to pull together,
stick together and to trust one
another.
If you don't agree with me,
Mr.. Larson, please say so and
oblige.
Yours very truly,

eighth grade. Very correct
Brother Colby, but do you con-
slider a language foreign to chill
dren when they have learned to
speak it from the cradle up? If
we, here in Askov, tried to teach
our children Italian or some
other language entirely foreign
to them in the grades of our
public schools. we believe that
that time would be practically
wasted. But when we give them
an hour of Danish each day-the
settlement language-the lang
uage which they speak as well as
English in their homes, we be-
lieve the time is we'll spent. And
so with settlements of other ma
tionalities.
There is a wide difference be-
tween teaching children their
mother language alongside the
language of their country the
English and then teaching and
spreading propaganda against
this country. As we have said
before we believe that a man is
at an advantage if he can speak
more than one language and en-
JOY the literature of more than
one country.
Such expressions as talk
United States" and this is
America" is something that is
heard by smart-alecks on the
streets occasionally but they are
hardly expected to come from a
University graduate. These ex-
pressions grind on the honor of
people who fully realize that this
is America and are trying to
lead the life of good pescoable
citizens, even though they con-
verse in the language which
they know best.
1t is in the home, or at least
ought to be, where children
learn that which in later years
will make them mea and women.
In cases where people came to
this country as grown-ups, yes,
and perhaps already married,
with small chi'iren, would YOU,
Brother Colby, take tier mother
language away from them?
Would you expect the parents OF
these children to teach them in
the English language what they
can teach them IN their mothe,
language? Without the use of
the mother language here there
would at least be one generation
which would be rather empty.
Brother Colby says we have
brought this down to a local
subject but forgets to answer
our question about how he. if a
foreigner. would like to live in
the state Of Iowa under the
rules which Governor Harding
there tried to impose. Iowa isn't
| quite local to us.
/ The trouble is that for the
past year or two there have been
a lot Of cheap politicians
throughout the land who have
been waving the flag and spread
a lot of this outward patriot
ism" and hollering down with
all foreign tongues with no
other thought than to gain
votes. Legislatures in many
states have tried to pass laws
against foreign languages,
churches, etc. and in some
places have succeeded but for
tunately in most of the states
there have been enough thinking
men to hold the balance and not
let this outward patriotism
run away with them.
i Let us see. it is only about
i fourteen generations since the
Mayflower came to America and
quite a stream of foreigners
have been coming over ever
since. Wonder if they haven't
brought anything good with

WAR CAMP COMMUNITY NOTES

There is great rejoicing among the
Colored Soldiers and Sailors and also
the other Club of the War Camp Com
munity Service will stay open for a
long period. This ruling will give the
men chance to enjoy all the facilities
of the club during the winter months.
The different clubs are doing all they
can to make things pleasant for the
men. Last Sunday the SOjourner
Truth Club gave the boys very novel
entertainment, they served the boys in
way that they had longed for the
whole time they were in the army.
Those homemade pies. All were more
than pleased the way these kind and
generous women treated them. The
Stag Social held at the club on the
31st of October was n grand success.
During the evening there We're 40
men served to very elaborate feed
which the War Camp Community
Service gave them.
Several interesting luncheOns We're
held at the club this week and from
all indications there will be more in
the near future. The club was the
happy recipients of cake donated by
Mrs. f. d. Gibbons for which we all
thank her. Persons wishing to enter
tain can do so by calling up the club
and getting u date that is not already
taken.

zations. there is every reason to be-
Iieve that the best interests of the
Wallace Simpson Post will be served
by this selection. The American Lee
gion stands for 100 per cent American
ism. and in the convention many reso-
utions will be approved of-the or
ganization going on record rs being
strongly opposed to race riot, lynching
and race discrimination. 1t is also
hoped that this will he the stepping
stone of congressional action that will
save the fair name of our country and
give inspiration to 100000 law-abid-
ing citizens who comprise the Ameri-
can Legion to be staunch supporters
of our government as well as advocates
of peace, harmony and amelioration
of conditions throughout the nation.
The best wishes of the community go
with Mr.. Perkins for a very success
full convention.
