 The lynchings at Santa Rosa figured repeatedly in the question ing of those called to the jury box.

ON COMING BACK

The little boy who kept hitting his, head with
a hammer explained on inquiry that he did it
because he felt so good when he stopped. The
little boy had the true philosophy of a vocation
list.
About once a year VIZ get a yearning to go
away from wherever we are, to be different, to
get out of our chosen path of life; and after
much preparation and worry about where and
how and when to go, we make the break and
are gone. %%*9 =@s%sassa&a&
And we are only away a little while when
we begin to get restless; we have a new yearn-
lng-this time it is to get back, back to the com
portable routine of the years, back to the coy
bed with just the right size pillow, back to the
easy chair of the front porch, back to the little
nook in the scheme of things as they are; awav
from the half cooked yet burnt food of the
woods, away from the mosquitoes Of the sum-
mer cottage, away from the knock-kneed nudity
of the beaches!
we have a feeling away down in the deep
d'm recesses of our soul that it's not the: going
away That helps; it's the coming back.

COMING INTO HIS OWN

Perhaps the world has not given to the lazy
man the credit he deserves for the progress
that has been made toward the idealslife. IT
is coming to be known. when the lazy man-is
considered dispassionately, that some of the
inventions are the result of his dis
inclination to work.
y For example, there is the riding cultivator,
which is said to be the product Of the ingenuity
of a man who was sure that his legs were never
intended to drag after a hand implement. Not
only does a man ride in cultivating now, but
he gets much more work done. There is not
much to be said about the man who refuses to
do any work at all, but the man who is just
lazy enough to do his work in the easiest way
has been able to hit upon many ideas that have:
added to the sum total Of human efficiency.
Many devices chat have contributed so largely
to production may be traced to the desire Of
individual to save himself from unneces-
sary physical effort. Many an inventor who has
a reputation for industry may have had only a
commendable KIND of laziness. It may not be
too late for the world to capitalize its lazy men.

A REAL COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT

r E\A<A SS04N WI y
The necessity of voting is a paramount issue
to the voter who would support candidates,
county and state, who are believers in, and adj
herants of the principles of Americanism upon
which the nation is founded. It does not mat
ter whether a candidates name comes in the
Democratic or the Republican column or in the
case of county elections where a nonpartisan
ballot is used, or what his or her name is, so
long as that candidate represents the principles
for which the voter desires to cast a ballot.
Independent voters in Ramsey county
have nominated, by writing her name
in on the primary ballot, a candidate,
Inez Siegel, for county superintendent
of schools. Miss Siegel will be sup.
ported by the independent, thinking
voters of Ramsey county. Miss Siegel
is of wide experience in school govern
ment and school affairs generally.
Miss Siegel already has outlined broad
plans for the betterment of education
al facilities of Ramsey county, to be
put into effect If she is elected to
office. zz - ,
As an item of interest to voters
and parents-of Ramsey county, in the
rural districts, Miss Siegel proposes to
take into consultation, the fathers and
the mothers of each district-to devise
ways and means of improving the edu-
cational opportunities it is possible for
the county to afford the future
greats" of North Dakota.
Miss Siegel is entitled to the support, in the
coming elections, of every deep thinking voter,
for the office of County Superintendent.
Is Ramsey county to continue to offer office
of such moment to the community at large, and
the states future, to. individuals, politically OPP
posed, and espousing the causes that are fight
ing the right of the farmers and the working
classes to legislative representation in state
govern1nent-and consequently and most nat
urally the sequence would be the carrying of
that same spirit into their work and into the
schools! of the rural districts-or is it to free it.
