present. the contract for the drive
was signed. There will be prelimin-
ary meetings in all OF the communit-

explained to all. These meetings will
begin in about week Then will fol-

GAME ONE WAS GAME WON

In the first game OF the season the
gridiron warriors OF the local high
school won a crushing victory over
Norway's fighting lightweights. Cry
stal Falls clearly showed their super
iority In all lines 70 the visitors. who
however, went down fighting. AT no
time. were the Norwegians able to
stop the rushes of the local backs
Gnody and Granberg especially went
thru the line or around the end for
big gains. The entire team played
well, and is going TO cause the other
teams OF the Range all kinds of trou-
BILE before the end OF the var. Altho
most of the men are green. Coach Kin
der has developed team that will
compare well with any that has ever
worn the Red and Black.
Norway showed a cople OF stars in
Anderson and Johnson, the latter be-
ing one OF the best backs the Range
has this year, and 1t was seldom that
the locals were able TO get around
Anderson's end for any large gains.
The locals kicked off TO Norway and
held them for downs. Gnody then
went around the end to the ten yard

ing and 1t has been given that very
thing with an increase OF clerks all
around in order to keep up the new
fandangle--a pretty sum added. The
idea that these new tangled things
reduce taxes is a fallacy; they make
for efficiency but they increase total
expenditures by the sum total OF the
new salaries and expenses paid.
Now, II the people want these up
to-date attachments 10 their state
government they must pay for them,
This talk about cutting out boards
and reducing expenses is all bunk.
The boards that will be cut out are
mostly those made up Of men who
give the state their services free. II
they are cut out, as II looks likely.
their places will be taken by salaried
employees and an expense will be add
ed instead OF saving made.
And, then there is the increase in
the cost of upplies-operating ex-
penses-that are increasing all the
time. Our insane population is in
creasing at rate OF three per cent
each year. The state can't provide
for 103 persons as cheaply as II can
for 100. Fuel alone in one institution
will cost $4,000 more this year than
last and last year II cost about s24.-
900 more than before the war. Per-
sonal service--wages OF the en-
ployes-will cost $4,000 more next
year than last
How is Mr.. Groesbeck or any other
man going to reduce the tax budget
with constantly increasing cost OF
operation. There is a lot of talk a
bout cutting state expenses that is
shot off without any consideration of
