BRING THE JEFFERSON
HIGHWAY TO WARREN

There never has been so much COM
plant about the Jefferson Highway as
this year. The Jefferson Highway is a
/ big asset to Thief River Falls, one of
the very biggest ones we have. We
should promote it and cherish it and do
all we can for it. We think the Jeffer-
/. son Highway is not properly located.

on two sides Of the highway oppose it,

it. We predict that some day the
JEFFERSON will be routed to the north
to connect us with our natural neigh
bors and friends. With their support
we will be able to build q road,
Thief River Falls Tribune.
A better plan than the one the Tri-
bune suggests would be to route the
Jefferson to Warren and then north
over the King Of Trails to Winnipeg.
A good road between Thief River Falls
has already been built, and the road
from Warren north to the county line
is now being gravelled. BY coming
here, the construction problem Of the
Jefferson Highway would be solved, and
the road would also run through the
cream Of the Red River Valley, with
it's great fields Of wheat, well settled
communities and prosperous and up-to-
date towns strung all along the route.
Tourists coming to the state surely will
want to see the famous Red River Val
ley and should be given chance to do
so.

The story came out when Harris
fled suit for 500 in justice court
against Abbas. It was story of tenn.
permanent and temper and the trouble
arose at rehearsal. Ossip ,Gabrilo-
witsch, director, was away for a few
minutes, and the temperamental ones
INDUCED in few moments Of play,
boy, not music. Harris reached his
violin bow over and tickled Abhas in
the ribs. Abbas does not care to be
tickled In his ribs and he swung
wicked cello bow to demonstrate that
he did not care for tickling. There
was a snap and the second violinist's
best bow was mess and wreckage.
"Ah. ha," shouted Harris. You
have broken my bow. You shalt pay"
"Shan't," shouted Abbas. Your
own fault. You had no business in
my ribs" They glared and then the
director appeared and the fight was
dropped. It was taken up again via
a justice court suit. 1t is believed that
the suit never will be heard. The or
chestra manager heard about it.. first.
He got the men together scolded,
fumed, argued, coaxed and at last
won. They shook hands. The dam
age was settled. And harmony of

from the adornments of present day
civilization to that of the Nearanthaler

prediction toward furs such as the

In milder climates women seem an to

noteworthy in respect to the unclothed

New ENGLAND Least American.

Talk Of Americanizing New England
rings oddly on American ears. If the
cradle Of our country needs American
izing, where are we? a.s +. i" 4.
We think of Massachusetts, as the
heart, Of New England. Among the
states it is next to the Oldest" But
count of her present generations
parentage shows Massachusetts to be
almost the least American Of the AZ
states, the World Outlook states.
The 1910 census discovered that only
81 per cent Of Massachusetts, folks
were native born of native parents.
More than 68 per cent were either for.
eign born or were born here of foreign
parents. Later figures would be even
more astounding. The years that in.
tervene between 1910 and the outbreak
of the war saw the greatest influx of
immigrants the country has ever
known.

Harding No Believer in the Superman.
Those highbrows and intellectuals,
political dictators and machine politi-
clans, who believe themselves ordained
by God to think for the common people
and to rule over them according to
their own sweet will and selfish in
terests, were given setback by Warren
G. Harding, the Republican candidate
for president, in the speech he deliver
ed few days ago at! the homecoming
celebration in his honor in his home
town Of Marion, Ohio: This is what
he said:
LET me say it to You, friends and
neighbors-aye, let me say to any who
may be noting our exchange of greet
ings today-if I believed in one man
government, if I believed the super
man were necessary to appeal to the
sober sense of the republic and ask our
people to plant their feet in secure and
forward paths once more, would not
be here in the capacity which has
prompted your greetings. Normal men
and backed to normally will steady a
civilization which has been fevered by
the supreme upheaval Of all the world.
Government lis a very natural thing,
and in most instances ought to be a
very normal and deliberate proceeding.
Not always of course, because great
emergencies and crises mark all the
vicissitudes of life. Normal men rise to
meet them, else they never would be
met.
..Perhaps II best Ecan convey my
thoughts by reverting to the; community
of endeavor which made the city in
which we. rejoice to boast. No super
man did it, no one man did it, we work
ed together, we counciled one another,
we cQnnciled- with men stamped with
leadership and in these processes we
have achieved, and rejoiced thereat
Now make the application. This
wonderful land of ours is but the ag-
gregate of communities, the sum total
of cities, villages and farms, and the
mutuality -of interest and the .neces-
sary harmony Of purpose, if we are to
go on must lie in conference, in council
in the concert Of many minds, in the
wisdom of plural leadership, in, the
never failing righteousness of intelli-
gent public opinion, not in the glory
Of the superman." -

Just Folks
By EDGAR A. GUEST
THE cooKlE.LApY.

She Is gentle, kind and fair,
And there's silver: in her hair,
She has known the touch of sorrow
But the smile Of her is sweet;
And sometimes it seems to- me
That her mission is to be
The gracious cookie-lady -..
To the youngsters of the street.
All the children in the block
Daily stand beside the crock
Where she keeps the sugar cookies
That the little folks enjoy,
And no morning passes DER
That tapping at her door
Doesn't warn her of the visit
OF certain little boy. =
She has made him feel that he
Has a natural right to be
In her kitchen when she's baking
Pies and cakes and ginger bread,
And each night to me he brings
All the pretty, tender things i
About little by-gone children
= That the cookfe-lady said. IT ;"',
Oh, dear. cookie-lady sweet -.
May you beautify our street, sis: 49,.
With your kind and gentle presence
Many more glad years, pray;
May the skies be bright above you,
As you've taught our babes to love
you
You will scar their hearts with sor-
IF you ever 60 away.
Life is strange, and when I scan it,
1 believe God tries to plan it,
So that where he sends his babies,
In that neighborhood to dwell
One or and gracious beauty
Shall abide, whose sweetest duty
Is to be the cookie-lady
That the children love so we'll.

THREE OF A KIND

Put two gallons of gasoline and
two ounces of solvite soap in wash
boiler or large dishpan and do your
dry cleaning at home" is the deadly
advice of the manufacturers of SOL
vite, a gasoline soap.
PUT three quarts of gasoline in a
deep pail with heaping teaspoonful
of borax. Put mop in and soak over
night. In the morning wash mop in
gasoline until clean, then rinse in one
quart of clean gasoline, let dry" is
the equally dangerous advice of an
other on cleaning mops.
dissolve bar of good white soap
in quart of hot water, add one pint
of gasoline and one tablespoonful of
ammonia. Mix thoroughly. Scrub
small area of rug with stiff brush
dipped in this paste. Scrape up lath-
er with broad putty knife and wipe
with damp CLOTH is the advice of a
third on rug cleaning at home.
Those three, and such as these are
short and sure methods to join the
heavenly choir.
Order the doctor, nurse, coroner,
undertaken and fire department in
advance.
Cleaning gloves or fabrics in gaso-
line indoors, or spraying bedroom
furniture with gasoline to extermin-
ate vermin are equally dangerous
practices.
During all three operations the
gasoline constantly evaporates and
the fumes mix with the air. Being
| three times heavier than air, they
| flow along the floor like stream OF
water, lodging in the low places, per-
haps fifty feet away from theil
scource. The explosive force of this
mixture is IA times greater than
dynamite. The tiny drop of gasoline
evaporated and exploded by an cleo.
trio spark propels the heaviest trucks
A spark from a horseshoe or ar
iron tool, a match, an open light
CRATE, stove or furnace, will explode
this death-dealing mixture.
You cannot see this creeping foe OF
the floor, nor forsee the spark which
may set it off to destroy life ant
property. Your only safeguard il
not to use gasoline indoors at all, ant
to store what gasoline you have il
