UHDiLSu SbICiSi VI
Running away from the parental
home on Mercer Island. Wash, Henry
Knowles and Comfort Harding, two
young boys. boarded a log and padded
more than a mile at night over the
chilly waters of Lake Washington.
They landed on an uninhabited
stretch of Lake Washington shore line
and spent three days in the brush.
They had blackened their faces with
creosote to escape the guards at the
parental home, and a rancher's wife.
thinking they were out for a holiday,
gave them a can of baked beans and
some matches. The baked beans were
all they had to eat during the time
they lived their lonely existence.
Deputy sheriffs looking for moon

A number of modest little farms App-
Grated by veterans Of the world war
! who have recovered from severe she'll
shock, gas or wounds, now dot the
states of New Jersey, Connecticut and
New York. The owners Of these
farms, most of them graduates of the
New York State School of Agriculture
at Farmingdale, L. l., have been re
habilitated" and are now making good
as food producers with the same en-
thusiasm that took them "oyer the
top" in France.
The transformation of most of these
former soldiers who selected farming
from among the subjects offered by
the federal board for vocational train
ing In many cases has been q complete
metamorphosis Of railroad brakemen,
plumbers, policemen, mechanics and
laborers. One recent graduate Of the
school was a bartender before the
war, and today he owns thoroughly

Director Praises Work.
According to A. A. Johnson, director
of the school, there were 76 federal
board men enrolled in June. and a
number of these have since graduated.
Director johnson was lavish in his
praise of what the soldler-farmers are
accomplishing, declaring that not only
were they doing their full share In
the economic program or their coun-
try, but '1n good many cases cen
siderably more than others less handi-
capped by wounds" He said they
were about equally divided az farm
tractor mechanics, general farmers,
poultry raisers and hog breeders.
Archie A. Stone, former member Of
the Minnesota legislature, who 10 In
charge of the work for the govern
ment, and has studied the results Of
the farm vocational training plan, said
that it is producing results Of 4 def
mite and permanent character. The
students may have both theory and
practice at Farmingdale 365 days In
the year.
CrippIes Work Unhampered.
Michael Leddy, who lost an arm at
Chateau-Thierry, is specializing in
tractor work, and with one hand and
a steel hook, drives as straight fur
row, it is said. as any two-handed
farm boy.
A year ago Charles Kupinski, an
other crippled soldier, had never even
ridden in a motor car. Recently, ac-
cording TO Director Johnson, he re-
paired cracked cylinder in a heavy |
farm tractor at a saving of nearly |
5000 to the school.
Other soldier graduates of Farming
dale who are operating farms are
Harry F. Cruise at Holbrook, L. L.;
Edison S. Smith, New Canaan, Conn.
Elmer e. Sturtz, Wellersburg, Pa;
Austin A Sullivan, Ronkonkoma, L. l.,

A new transportation company-tha
Jefferson Highway Transportation
Co.-started yesterday. It's bus runs
between Minneapolis and Milaca and
vice versa, and stops at Princeton and
all other towns en- route. The time
card appears elsewhere in this issue. J
The company, in addition, maintains
comfortable waiting rooms at 20 N.
7th street, Minneapolis Opposite the
Shubert theater), where passengers
may meet their friends and have free
telephone service to all parts of the
city, and where parcels will be at
tended to free Of charge. While but
one bus is being operated at the pres
ent time it is the intention of the
company to add sufficient equipment
to meet all demands of traffic as soon
as capital will permit. All busses will
be of the famous White make, the
principal feature being the peculiar
design of the body color scheme, which
is blue and white-a combination
readily distinguished at a distance.
This bus line should prove of great
convenience to people going to and
coming from the cities.

What is America2

America is more than fertile fields,
more than bursting banks, more than
waving flags. The America in which
one must believe, and for which he
must sacrifice, is constitutional liber-
ty and justice according to law, guar
anteed and administered by three CO.
ordinant branches of government.
Just in proportion as we weaken the
energy of the system through changes
in the constitution-which Washing
ton so earnestly warned against-we
undermine what thus far no one has
succeeded in overthrowing.
l repeat, three coordinate branches
of government with no subordinate
branch. In the America which the
world knows, and which we love
laws must be enacted by the legislative
branch, and not by the executive or by
the proletariat. Laws, must be inter
preted by an independent judiciary
fearless and unrecallable except by
Impeachment. And these laws, whose
scope is limited by the constitution
must be administered by the executive
and not by the legislative branch
Congress has no more right to direct
the manner Of the execution of it's acts
than the president has to direct or
coerce the nature of it's acts. Let
each coordinate branch keep hands
off the sacred prerogatives of the
other. That's America! And the man
who defends her traditions and her
institutions, regardless of his nativity,
is an American who can safely be
placed on guard duty.-Leslie M.
Shaw.

A Remarkable Field of Potatoes,

A Remarkable Field of Potatoes.
Messrs. Sampson and Thomas Of
the r. L. Pitcher company are GER
tainly demonstrating that they un-
derstand potato culture. Their field
Of potatoes west Of town cxcels any
thing in that line ever seen in this ter
ritory and farmers drive for miles to
look upon the field and wonder. The
land upon which these potatoes are
being grown was considered of little
value, but the Pitcher people said,
"Well show you" and they are GER
tainly doing so. They have used fer
tilizer and their method of cultivation
is entirely different from that prac-
ticed hereabouts. The average size
Of potatoes in that field at this time
is as large as hen, eggs and they are
smooth and free from any form of
disease. If farmers adont the Pitcher
plan it is safe to say they will dig
three bushels of potatoes where they
dug only one before. 1t is estimated
that the field above referred to will
yield between $50 and 300 bushels per
acre, whereas under the old method a
grower would probably be lucky if he
harvested so.

Mrs. Henry Shaw.

After a lingering illness, Mrs. Hen
ry Shaw passed to the great beyond
at her home in Seattle, Wash, on Fri
day, June 18.
Mrs. Shaw, whose maiden name was
ANGELA Hanscombe, was born on July
8, 1843, in the state Of Maine. In 1851
she came with her parents to Mime
sofa and settled at Brooklyn Center.
She was married to Henry Shaw on
February II, 1866, and came with her
husband to Baldwin, Shcrburne coun-
ty, where they resided until 1888,
when they moved to Princeton. Sew
eral years after her husbands death
she went to Seattle in hopes of bene-
fitting her health, but without avail.
Mrs. Shaw is survived by four chill
dren-Mrs. Warren Vose, St. Paul;
Mrs. William Ferrell, Minneapolis;
Mrs. Carrie Gerrish and Mrs. Ray
Robinson, Seattle, and seven grand
children.
Mrs. Shaw was a most lovable
old lady, kind and generous to a
fault. During her residence here she
endeared herself to large number of
friends in consequence Of her true
christian qualities-friends who will
learn with deep regret of her death
and who will long revere her memory.

The Village Band.

The man whose boyhood years
brought no opportunity for member
ship in the village band missed real
experience and a world of fun. There
is no other experience, in, all that
comes to boy or man, like it; no other
supplies what it brings. It comes at
a time when youthful ardor sours the
individual to the hardest work where
there is least reward in substantial
things. But it is not profit, it is glory
for which the youngster in the band
seeks. The appeal to effort is sup
piled by the glamor that surrounds the
task. The spotlight makes an appeal
quite as certain and irresistible to the
lad in the village as to the prima
donna. How the heart of Young
America swells when the new brass
horn is his! Later, when the band
gets new instruments, all brightly sill
yer plated, another new swelling of the
heart is experienced. Then when the
uniforms are secured, when the band
makes its appearance at some gather
ing of more than local prominence
then the cup of joy is filled. With
what eagerness do the members tramp
along the streets on a long march, no
matter how rough may be the streets
or how the sun may blister! If they
lead the parade, if the streets are
filled with wild-eyed, wondering boys
and girls, then the cup Of the member
of the village band is filled to the
brim. To the youngster who gets in it
is a never-to-be forgotten event. It
marks the time he steps away from
the things pertaining to boyhood and
takes part with men in the important
affairs Of life. It is great experience
to those who have had share in it.
It is in the heart Of every live boy to
be member Of the band. He is richer
in pleasant memories and better in his
knowledge of the world if he realized
|his ambition.

TOWNLEY CRUSHED
Preus and Solid Convention Ticket
Elected and Staggering Blow
is Dealt Socialism.
The Village of Princeton Casts Few
Nonpartisan Votes But the
County Goes Wrong.

From latest figures obtainable at
this time Preus, republican, has car
ried the state by something like 1O,-
600 plurality over Shipstead, non
partisan, thus dealing a staggering
blow to socialism. The whole conven-
ton ticket is in all probability elected
from governor down, although there
are number of small precincts in the
state to be heard from. Louis Collins
for lieutenant governor, Rines for
state treasurer, Holm for secretary of
state, jacobson for railroad and ware
house commissioner and Hilton for at
torney general have heavy leads.
Justice Dibell for supreme court JUS
tice seems to be elected and Thos. D.
Schall for congress in the tenth dis
trict has a walkaway.
The vote in Mile Lacs county, as
canvassed by the board was not very
encouraging from the viewpoint of
Preus receiving only
1926 votes to Shipstead 1,215. The
village of Princeton, however, gave
Preus 229 to 20 for Shipstead; Wah-
kon, Preus 81, Shipstead 8; Milaca
Preus 130, Shipstead 81. The other
villages and towns returned MAORI
ty for the nonpartisan. Schall fol
congress polled the highest number Of
votes in the county-1561, as against
McMillen 327 and Hershman 1919. In
Princeton village Schall polled 16e
votes, McMillen 101 and Hershmar
Is. An eleventh-hour attempt was
made by individuals styling them,
selves "Princeton Committee to link
Mr.. Schall up with the socialists anc
at the same time extol the virtues Of
McMillen, but this trick fell fiat. Cir.
culars were mailed to the voters Of
Princeton as above. Princeton gave
Henry Rines 255 votes as against q
for Lund.
Indrehus led on the democratic
ticket for governor in the county, re-
ceiving 38 votes out of total of Is
cast.
The vote in the county was light, 3
total Of 2,372-2,294 republican anc
| 78 democratic.

Notes.


Plaas, the old reliable "ump,' was
out of town, but his place was ably
filled by Harold Galley. Galley was as
sisted by Gish of Onamia, and some
thought that the visitors were also
assisted by Gish. However that is
all in the game, and on the whole the
contest was well umpired.
Klue had the misfortune to sustain
an injury to hand, and he was
forced to exchange places with Clair
Smith. Smith covered third in A No.
1 fashion and Klue attended to the
left garden in O. K. manner.
Galley, who has been out of the
game several Sundays on account of
a broken hand, expects to get back in
the game by the 4th. He is a
hard hitting and fast-playing first
baseman and his return will be well
coined by fans and players. Raiche
has been covering first and his work
has been all that could be desired.
Princeton has good team, one of
the best in these parts, and if financial
difficulties do not wreck it some lively
contests are in store for the fans.
"Pongo" Olsen has gathered a speedy
aggregation at Milaca and it is to be
hoped that the two mines will come
together.
Next Sunday Princeton journeys to
Anoka to take on the powerful aggre-
cation at that place. If the locals
play up to their usual form it will be
a real ball game.

Impressive Road Lesson.

Our neighbor state of Wisconsin
furnishes an object lesson in the way
Of the development of road construc-
tion which should be Impressed upon
Minnesota and become effective in
rallying universal support for the
constitutional highway plan to be sub
mitted at the polls in November. The
recent storm with it's accompanying
deluge of water, struck Wisconsin
with great intensity and for practi-
cally it's full width but with radically
varying results; and in that variation
lies the lesson which should sink deep
ly into the Minnesota mind.
Eastern Wisconsin has a splendid
system of finished roads. Western
Wisconsin is yet without this charac-
ter of highways. In the former sec
tion pavements abound in every di-
rection, concrete and bitulithic con.
struction prevailing, with bedded
graveling making permanent and
durable roads elsewhere. The per-
manent system is creeping westward
as rapidly as appreciation of it's in.
estimable benefits comes, but the sec.
tion nearest Minnesota has only roads
which, while admirable in good wealth.
er, lose that character in other condi.
tions.
From Sunday until Wednesday OF
last week the state was swept by del
uging rains. What was the result
In the eastern part Of the state the
permanent road system was as unaf-
fected as a paved street in St. Paul
Travel, which is heavy from town and
farm by truck and team, proceeded
without the least interruption. Roads
were thronged with the traffic which
spells prosperity to town and country
But from central Wisconsin west, al
most universally a clay country, the
situation was unspeakable. Roads not
only were impossible, but in cases
destroyed, together with the bridges
and culverts which were part of the
makeshift system. Traffic between
towns and between city and country
was suspended indefinitely. Road in
spectors at every intersection warned
vehicles against danger and impassa-
bility ahead. The only occupation of
the farmer was hauling out motorcars
mired in the bitches.
The contrast between eastern and
western Wisconsin is startling and IL
Eliminating. It tells its impressive

.0NAMIA TRIMMED Up
Baseball Team From Mile Laos Lake
Proves to be as Clay in the
Hands of the Potter.
However Onamia Has Good Team
Which Holds Distinction Of
Having Crushed Milaca.

The Princeton ball team continued
it's winning stride on Sunday when it
humbled Onamia by 10 to 2 count.
Onamia has been playing some good
ball this season, having literally
crushed Milaca early in the season.
Later Tom Olsen's men came back
and hung defeat onto the lake coun-
try pastimers, but the final count was
close. Onamia never had a lookin
here Sunday though.
Knutson was on the mound for
Princeton and was in superb form.
His speedy slants, mixed with an oc-
casional slow one that was battling
as we'll as exasperating, could not be
solved by the opposing willow WELD
ers, and the first four men that faced
him went down on strikes. Fisher was
on the receiving end and performed
well. Knutson and Stanton did the
heavy work for Onamia and weathered
the storm fairly well.
Onamia never counted at all until
the eighth round, when Princeton
slowed down long enough to give the
visitors one run. The visitors mcnaged
to squeeze another man over in the
ninth, giving them grand total of
2. Princeton started right out for
score in the first inning, after Knut-
son had tanned the first three batters
that faced him, but the side was re-
tired before the scoring machine ac-
tually started revolving. But the
second round saw something doing,
and the Onamia defense crumbled like
a house of cards before the fierce on
slaught of the locals. Bingles and
drives were mixed, and Doane, Klue,
Smith and Grow all counted. Just to
make it safe Princeton added two more
in the third round, Raiche and Smith
crossing the registering station. The
locals slowed up until the sixth round,
when the wricking crew got busy
again and four more runs were added
to our healthy total. Truman, Doane,
Berg and Erickson counted. This end
ed Princeton's scoring as well as the
hopes Of the visitors, who apparently
were well satisfied to avoid shut
out.
