about $4,000 on this building and
when he has it finished Pine City Will

very high standard in the motion pic

Minnesota Paper Answers League

Since the mammoth tax boost this
y,aar in North Dakota, tho league
bosses responsible for the condition
have been staying awake nights try
ing to find a means of keeping the
farner Taxpayers from setting up q
howl that would mean ths killing Of
the goose that hays the golden eggs
for the league leaders.
For months the fifty-three leagul
newspapers, the fifty-eleven league
orators, and hundreds Of league Office
holders. kept up . constant clamor
that thsre would Be no appreciable
raise in taxes, and that such claims
Of high taxes were old gang lies to
scare the farmers.
But the time must come when all
good things must end. And, 70, at
last, the question Of whether or not
taxes would be higher could no longer
be point Of contention. THEY
WERE HIGHER - AND MUCH
HIGHER.
/ But the league manipulators are
resourceful If nothing else. High
taxes being an actual fact, they turn
ed their efforts on the work Of ques-
tioning the responsibility therefore,
and many are the wierd explanations
they offered to shift the responsibility.
The Record has from time to time
shown by facts and figures the act

therefore. There still remains an
other explanation that seems to have
appeased farmer now and then.

The Way Of Nan would be past guess

about the way of woman. Ellen West

phraseology! 1t is Mr.. Dixon's.
Ellen West declined to be married TO
Ralph Manning and failed for some time
to induce him to consent 10 another ar
rangement. At length she bought an au-
tomobile, learned quickly how to run it
with surest skill and took him OF to a
cabin in the country for a week end.
Poor Manning did not learn until they
were at the cabin eating supper ELLEN was
wearing "blood red, fur trimmed robe")
that they would be all alone till Monday
Ellen told him, in what may have been
meant to be a rcassuring tone:
"Our position here tonight is an ad-
vance in morality-not lapse. We seek
the reality, not the shadow. We scorn the
'ttcr OF an outgrown ritualism. The muir
of the brook beneath our cabin is our

hopeful ending. We cannot abandon this
brief indication Of the nature of the story
without reference to Minnie Burton, an
English girl and visitor at Ruvno, who
has some part in the personal affairs Of
Ian. There is pleasantly drawn picture
of an American food relief man, Major
Healy, whose role, apparently no more
than that Of a visitor. turns out to be of
somewhat greater importance at the close.
People are, indeed, put before us with
perfect fidelity and clearness in the novel,
and most Of them are people it is o pleas
ure to know. 1t must not be thought be-
cause the story is the story Of terrible
time that it is devoid of humor. This is
of the very quiet, descriptive sort, as in
the portrayal of Father Constantine's
preparations for journey, which the
Russian mobilization stopped at the rail-
way station. Father Constantine, the
priest Of Ruvno, is figure most readers
will take firmly into their affections.
Szmul generates quite other emotions.
And all the incidents are related with an
