the lobby and adjoining rooms, and
the quiet beauty of these two materi-
ais is further enhanced by the Tiffany
tinting used on the rough plaster
walls. The large lobby is without
furnishings save for the marble Gus
toners table which occupies the CEN
ire of the room and a leather-cushion
ed seat Of marble at the side. A small
drinking fountain adds to the conven-
ience of the room without detractinE
from it's spacious simplicity. Reed
table and chairs in the ladies room,
with the addition of a pretty rug,
make this room attractive as well a
comfortable. Plain rugs of rose with
borders of mulberry have been com
bined with the oak furniture in tn"
directors room with very good effect
The erection Of this fine new build
ing has taken more time than was
at first estimated because Of labor
conditions and the impossibility Of
getting materials without almost inter
minable delays However its finish
ed state entirely justifies the long
wait, both in providing a better place
for the bank to carry on its work and
for it's patrons to transact their bust
ness. The building in itself is bio
asset to the community, few cities Of
the size of Redwood Falls having any
thing comparable to it in appearanc"
or completeness. The State Bank OF
Redwood Falls is an institution for
which the city and vicinity has long
had an unbounded esteem and now
that it is housed in the beautiful new
building, which it has so justly earn
ed, that esteem stands in slight dang
er of being lessened.

lecture course will be given at the ar
mory Wednesday, November 10.

Brothers and tickets should be ar
ranged for. This first number is a
musical program by the Redpath Con-
cert Company of five members with
Edward Barrow as tenor soloist, Ev-
cry number of the course is guaran-
teed to be most excellent and the pa
tronage should be liberal by all the
citizens who appreciate really good
things in music and lectures. The ar

fear any discomfort from the lack OF
sufficient warmth.

modious room which will be used
chiefly by the directors. At the foot
Of the stairs leading to this room is
a smaller room which will be adapted
to any public need that may arise.
The vaults of the bank offer sub
stantial proof that the owners have
had in mind the absolute safety of
money and papers entrusted to their
care, and are both absolutely fire
proof and as nearly burglar proof as
anything a human being can devise.
The customers vault, opening from
the savings department, is reached
without going into the main work
room and is thus easily accessible In
this vault are three hundred safety
boxes of steel, encased in a vault
of STEEL and with a door which
defies all unskilled manipulation. The
rear wall of this vault consists of
large mirror which adds greatly to the
attractiveness of the steel walls and
ceiling. The bank vault at the rear
of the work room is entered by a SIM
liar door and offers a spacious place
for the safe keeping of the banks
moneys, papers, etc. A new safe of
the most approved type is one Of the
features of this vault The machine
room, which also opens into the work
room provides place where the sever
al machines which are an essential
part of the mechanical equipment of
a bank may be used without disturb

The best of materials and workman

Hurrah for Olsen!

The vote Judge 1. M. Olsen of New
Ulm received last Tuesday was a most
flattering recognition of the Judges
ability, also brought feeling of secur-
ity to those who have held fears that
the Ninth Judicial District would go on
record as supporting one who held the
unsavory wartime record that is held
by Albert Pfaender who was Mr.. Oh
sens opponent. The district consists
of five counties and all of these with
the exception of Brown County
strongly supported Judge Olsen. In
Brown county which is the home coun-
sty Of both candidates, in all the rural
precincts the two men ran nearly
equal. New Ulm, which is the home
town of both candidates, gave Mr..
Psaender a strong majority and he
thus carried the county. However
Mr.. Olsen's majority in the entire
district was six thousand, two hum

Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Richardson, at s

1920 Roll Call
Now at Hand
GREATNESS is HER
CAPACITY FOR SERVICE; HER
RED CROSS MUST GO ON.

There is not the smallest doubt IN
the minds of Redwood Falls people
but that there is work for the Red
Cross and that it must continue. These
hearts are the same hearts which
helped to feed starving Europe and
gave for all suffering humanity until
it hurt-they do know that there are
as great problems to be met right
here at their own doors as any OF
those which the Red Cross has so well
handled abroad-and will give their
dollars again as freely-that this
work may live-that the American
Red Cross shall continue to be the
Greatest Mother to that part of Amer
ica that suffers.
Ten thousand returned men, grim
monuments Of wars barbarity, are
still receiving care and medical atten-
tion in hospitals scattered over the
country. Hundreds of Minnesota boys
returned mutilated-they still need
advice, guidance and assistance along
the lines of personal reconstruction.
The Red Cross Home service during
the war ministered to nearly one mil
lion families of soldiers, sailors and
marlneS-lt Stlll 1lnQS mlghty HIS
sion of service. Since the signing of
the Armistice in many counties the
same service given soldiers families
during the period of war has been ex-
tended to civilians. In nearly every
county in the United States the Home
Service work is organized.
There can be no vacation this year
for the American Red Cross. The
Red Cross job is an American job. Be
regular American and renew your
membership to the Red Cross during
the coming Roll Call, November 18th
to 25th.

OUR SIDE OF IT.

We're not ashamed of the uniform,
And If you are friend
You will never say word against il,
Any word that will offend.
IL has covered honored bodies,
And by heroes has been worn
Since the days Of the Republic,
When the stars and stripes were
born.
Uniforms have many patterns,
Some are khaki, some are blue,
And the men who chose to wear them
Are of many patterns too.
Some are sons of wealthy parents
Some are college graduates,
Some have many, many virtues
Some are simply reprobates.
We have many skilled mechanics,
Men of brains and letters who
Loyalty have served their country
That they are a credit too;
No indeed they are not all angels
Blackguardsa Yes we've some of
those
But when they came into the service
They all wore civilian clothes.
Men of all kinds when they are drink
ing
Misbehave act rough, and swear
Drunken soldiers or Civilians
Are disgusting anywhere.
Grant us then your kind forbearance
Well appreciate il more
Than a lot of noisy cheering,
When we are leaving for war.
We have sat with you in public
And have smelled your whiskey
breath,
Heard remarks insane and silly
Nearly boring us to death.
Though we offered no objections
- When in theatres we have met,
You think that you should exclude us
From the most exclusive set.
If you meet us out in public,
On the street or anywhere;
We don't merit sneering glances,
Nor a patronizing stare.
For we have an honored calling
AS our garments plainly show
You may be a thief or parson,
How on earth are we to know?
don't care for your profession
Occupation what you do,
When your looking at soldier
And he is looking at you;
Who is there to judge between you,
AS you stand there man to man?
Only one the great Almighty
Name another if you can.
Drop your proud and naughty bearing
And yo,,r eOOtisfir pride
Get acquainted with the soldier
And the heart and soul inside
Test and try to analyze him
Criticise him through and through
And you will very likely find him
Just as good a man as you.
