When the Examiner was established
approximately 200 farmers in Free

The paper started as a 16-page pub

was some talk among the farmers of
boycotting Albert Lea merchants to

MALTA SCHOOL BOND
ELECTION CARRIES

The election in school district No.
Ia, at the old school house in this
city last Saturday afternoon carried
by a big majority. The day was a
perfect one and most of the voters
who had given the subject any thought
were on hand to cast their ballot for
the erection of a new school building.
The vote when tabulated, was TIA in
favor of the bonds to "a against. This
is the first chool election held in the
city where the patrons of the schools
have shown any real interest in the
elections, whether it was a bond cleo
ton or for school trustees. Our schools
are our most important institutions
and the public should take more inter-
est in their management than has been
shown in the past. The board invites
the public to all the meetings held and
would also appreciate their visiting the
schools.
The result of the election Saturday
is very pleasing to the board and they
we're glad to have so large a vote out
and the substantial majority shows the
people of Malta are back Of the schools
to the limit ever in the face of oppo-
sition developed a few days before the
election by a few men. When the
spring election for trustees off
we are in hopes that the same spirit
will be manifested in that election
as was shown Saturday. We want our
schools to be second to none and it
takes the hearty cooperation of all the
patrons to get them up to a high stan
dard.-Malta Enterprise.

Stroll in with your hat on, your hands
in your pockets and a cigarette in your
mouth. 1t will touch your commanding
officer to have you show that you
consider yourself we'll enough &C
quainted with him to forego a few lit
tie formalities. If you want to arouse
his deep emotion, slap him on the back
and borrow a cigarette from him while
you finger over the papers on his desk.
This will make him realize that you
are interested in him personally and
consider his work OF some Importance.
5. Always say what you really
think of your officers in such a way
that they will overhear it. They will
consider it a compliment to know that
you think of them at all. Besides, the
friendly criticism will help make them
correct their faults and in time, by
this method, they will learn how to run
the army to suit you, which is really
what they are in the service for.
6. If you and your commanding
officer cannot agree as to the proper
time to hold reveille, humor him by
answering roll call, even if you have
to yell "here" from your barracks
window. Remember, he has not seen
you since the night before and it will
please him greatly to know that you
are awake.
z. Never fail to say "Sir" when ad-
dressing an officer, especially a first
lieutenant, even though you feel that
he may never have an opportunity to
be so addressed after the war. 1t shows
a fine spirit of consideration on your
part in thus attempting to conceal your
feelings of superiority.
These are only a few of the many
ways by which you can make your
self popular with your officers and en-
able them to cherish pleasant recollec-
tions of you when they return to their
peace time vocations as ribbon counter
mechanics and fountain pen chauf-
eurs.
Treat your officers kindly now and
you will have no cause for regret if
you have occasion to employ any of
them when we all get back home.

LIVESTOCK CLUBS FORMED.

F~ifty-nine livestock breeders asso-
Citations, with a reported membership
of 1924, were organized during the
last fiscal year with the help of the
United States department of agricul-
lure extension specialists. In addition
calf clubs were organized
among the boys and girls. Much Of the
work is being done in regions where
the beef cattle industry is practically
new.
One of the purposes of beef cattle
extension activities is to eliminate
scrub bulls and replace them with pure
breds of good quality. The federal
workers cooperate with the state ag-
ricultural colleges through their ex-
tension divisions and particularly with
county agents.

MOTORS A LA KIPLING.
From the Ohio Motorist.)

From the Ohio Motorist.)
I've taken my fun where I've found it,
I've owned lots of cars in my time,
I've had my picking of motors
And four of the lot were prime.
One was a half-used roadster.
One was a steamer car,
And the one full of fuss was a low,
yellow
bus.
And one was a racing star.
The roadster was merely an infant
In the earliest days of the game.
There were only two cylinders to her
And both of them ran kind of lame;
A rumble was mounted a-stem her
You rode her without any spur,
But you'd lie on your back in the dust
of the track
And l learned about autos from her.
The steamer was homely and faithful,
A reliable family steed,
But you couldn't put confidence in her
If even you worked her for speed.
She'd kind of clog up in the vitals
Her rivets would melt to a blur,
She'd run and she'd hop but she never
would stop,
And l learned about autos from her.
Then | bought one that was pretty,
Yellow her principal hue,
She looked like she'd do a good eighty
But looks didn't penetrate through;
Quiet she was as a cradle,
While on the levels you were,
But up on the hills she'd hand you the
thrills
And learned about autos from her.
Next a real racer l purchased,
Bonded to win all her starts;
She'd go, but the landscape surround
ing
Was well decorated with parts;
Gears flying off at a tangent,
Belts flying loose with a whirr;
After each speedy tilt she'd be wholly
rebuilt
And learned about autos from her.
Roadster, steamer, touring car,
Cars Of every hue
All their faults, l love them still
And I'll tell you true,
When you give the ars the gaff
Test them as you should
The limousine and the tin machine
Are sisters under the hood.

SHOW TO TREAT AN OFFICER
BY Sergeant Appleby.

/ wish to speak tonight on a matter
that has been of great concern to me
for about eight months. Early this
spring l decided that if the United
States army was eve to be of any
real assistance to the allies it would
be necessary for men to enlist.
There was a rumor current at the
time that the tank corps was a branch
of the United States army. On the
strength of that delusion 1 enlisted
as a tanker. Some of those who knew
me back home insinuated that there
were obvious reasons why / enlisted
in that particular branch. But we will
let that pass. Personally l have al
ways considered that this SANDER was
a base form Of German propaganda.
At any rate, disregarding everything
but the needs of this highly rated
branch, l offered my services. For
the actual data l refer you to future
histories of the war.
1t has been reported that the war
department decided that in order to
keep the German government ignor-
ant of the fact that the United States
army had been materially strengthen
ed it was best for me to serve as a
buck private. Whether this was true
or not | am too modest to state. You
a judge for yourself, however, by the
fact that l am still a buck private.
This brings me to the subject of which
l feel impelled to speak and l assure
you that while l feel reluctant to call
it to your attention, l consider it my
earnest duty to do so. AS one of them
it has often grieved me to notice the
unwillingness of buck privates to as
sociate with officers.
Personally, l see no good reason why
an officer should be ~ostracized by buck
privates. Of course, we can't all be
buck privates. But that is no rea-
son why the less fortunate members
of a military organization should be
Disseminated against.
According to one version of the l.
d. R. when the required number of
enlisted men to form a full company
are selected, the material left over is
made into officers. Some authorities
insist that officers represent the cas-
uals of an outfit. But | would not
care to go that far. Somebody has
to wear the Sam Browne belts and
maintain that any man who is will
ing to perform this important duty has
a right to be considered an integral
part of the army, and is entitled to
due respect as a soldier.
Now, / would not hesitate at any
time to associate with an officer on
friendly terms if l thought that it
would not embarrass him or lessen
his dignity, or of discipline.
do not I've seen why there should
be any objection to sitting at the same
mess with an officer; most of them
know the proper use of a fork and /
deny that an officer is any noisier
with his soup than even a buck pri-
vate.
am glad to see tonight that Co. A,
344th, has made the right start in
this direction. l want to commend

MIGHTY BAD BUSINESS.

The story is told that a farmer
in Lafourche boasted that he had
sold enough dirt and trash in his
potatoes to buy himself new car
We do not vouch for the story, but
Judging from the piles of dirt we
have seen at the potato sheds
which came out Of sacks of field
run" potatoes, the story seems
quite plausible. But be that as
it may, one farmer may sell his
potates (dirt and trash included)
as field run, for $500 to $3.50 per
hundred and think he is doing a
smart thing and getting the best
of someone. But he will find in
the long run that he is paying
dearly for his car, and is only
bringing himself into contempt

THE BEAUTY OF WOMAN,

Years ago, when the adults OF
1hIS town were children, oul
mothers and our grandmothers
and our auntS could hardly be in
duced to enter a beauty shop or
purchase cosmetics from over the
drug counter. 1T was considered
vain and frivolous, and society
did not approve.
In those days women aged much
more rapidly than they do today,
and the wrinkles Of time were in
evidence early in life.
But today.it is different, and it
IS well that it is so.
A man marries a woman be-
cause he is attracted to her and
forms lasting affection for her.
1t IS but natural that he should
take pride in her beauty and in
the charm Of her character, and
any harmless means that will aid
in retaining either is more than
JuStltiable in its employment.
The woman Of the home takes
pride in having that home neat
and attractive, and spends many
hours in adding those little touch
es which she knows are appealing
TO the man Of her choice.
Is there any reason why she
sould be less particular in pre-
serving her beauty of person
than. she is in retaining that of
the home?
There is today no reason why a
normally healthy woman should
not retain much of the brightness
and bloom Of youth even, to the
brink of the grave. Certainly it
is more rejuvenating to her and |
more pleasing to those who know
and love her.
DO not criticise the woman who ,
uses artificial means to retain her
beauty of person on par with
that Of her soul.
1t is possible she is showing
evidences of wisdom not possessed
by some of her critics, for in the
eyes Of mankind the preservation
of her charm is justifiable in every
way. .yI
