tAtt
condition is menance to public
health, they have appealed to the city
council for relief. The present ditch,
which is supposed to drain the slough,
has become filled up and must be clean
ed out to allow the water to flow off.
1t is possible that a sewer will eventual
ly be constructed to drain the slough.
500 For Battery.
The request presented to the council
by a committee from the New Ulm
Battery for donation of 500 for this
organization was granted. The dele
cation was headed by Franz Niemann.
Repair Alvin Bridge Road.
A plan for Strengthening the high
way leading to the New Alvin bridge
across the Cottonwood river was sub
mitted to the council by City Engineer
r. D. Minimum, together with an esti-
mate Of the cost Of this Improvement,
which would be about $1,000. This
sum is available from the county.
The street committee was entrusted
with this matter.
Milk Ordinances.
For some time past the council has
been considering the advisability Of
adopting milk ordinance, which
would provide uniform rules and regu-
lations for the sale of tactical fluid in
New Ulm. The matter was again dis
cussed at the session last Tuesday
evening and laid over for final action
at a special meeting to be called soon.
Light Patrons Negligent.
City Treasurer Gottlieb Oswald in
formed the city fathers that there is
quite lengthy list Of patrons of the
municipal electric light plant who fail
to pay the monthly bills for this
service. Some of them are in arrears
for several months. The matter was
referred to the electric light committee
for investigation.
Mr.. Gould Before Council.
Jay E. Gould, proprietor of the New
Crystal formerly Grand) Theatre,
called on the council and informed the
members that he will conduct a first
class movie playhouse and expects to
locate here with his family. Mayor
L. A. Fritsche and the members of the
council welcomed him to our city.
Mr. Gould is p liye-wire booster and
New Ulm will profit by having him as
a citizen.
Selling Bonds.
The council unanimously adopted a
resolution providing the method of
the sale Of the last $25, 900 of the bonds
for the new municipal electric light
and waterworks plant. The bondissue
Of $25O,OOO was sufficient to pay the
entire cost of constructing and equip
ing the plant.

The overall factory which has been
closed down for nearly half a year will
reopen Monday, August 15,. with
about half the usual number of workers
employed. This factory in rush times,
had as many as SO girls working and it
meant considerable loss to the town
to have the industry closed for 50 long.

MILK ORDINANCE.

The city council was kept quite
busy listening to petitions for improve
ments desired by the residents in
different sections of the city, which
were read and heard at the reg I'll
council session, last Tuesday evening.
The demand for public improvements
seems to be growing constantly and
the council is experiencing no little
difficulty in providing the necessary
funds for carrying them out.
Desire Alley Pavement.
A petition signed by most of the
property owners in the block between
Minnesota street and Broadway and
second and Third North streets, asking
that the alley therein be paved with
concrete, was presented to the city
fathers by DR.. J. Fl. Vogel, one of the
interested parties. This is the first
step in the matter of hard-surfacing
the alleys in the blocks on both sides
of Minnesota street in the business
section, which is very necessary i'm
provement. The petition was re-
ferred to the Board of Public Works
for approval.
Want Electric Light.
The residents of that section in the
south end of town, popularity known
as the WallacheiS' presented to the
city council a literally signed petition,
asking that the electric light service
be extended to that part of the city.
In order to demonstrate to the city
fathers that this improvement is de-
sired by big majority of the resi-
dents, a large delegation attended the
session and implored the council to
take prompt and favorable action in
the premises. 1t was brought out that
several previous petitions for the same
purpose had been ignored by the
council, as nothing had been done. 1t
is estimated that the electric light ex-
tension to the "Wallachei' will cost in
the neighborhood of $4,000, and the
electric light committee, together with
Superintendent Herbert Huevelmann
of the municipal plant, is to investigate
and report to the council as to the ad-
visibility of making the Improvement.
County Fair Gets $500.
The matter of granting donation
to the Brown County Fair created
considerable discussion. Last year no
assistance was rendered the Fair by
the city council, although in previous
years donations of $500 had been made.
A committee, composed Of President
Ferdinand Crone, Secretary William
A. Lindemann, Vice President Jacob
Klossner, Jr., and Alfred W. Vogel
appeared before the city fathers@and
asked for donation of $500, stating
that the county board had appro-
priated $1,000 for the Fair. After
discussing the matter at length, Coun-
cilor Karl HI. Aufderheide made a
motion to grant $500 for this pur-
pose, which was amended by Coun-
cilor Charles Kuehlbach, who sub
stituted $500 for 5000. Both the
amendment and the original motion
were lost, whereupon Councillor Jerry
Reardon presented a new motion,
fixing the amount of the donation at
$500, which was carried.

he gave a list of salaries of railway of

fact that President Harding received
$4,000 a year as the head of a great
nation, and seemed satisfied with his
pay and his place. The following are

THE STOLEN KEY.
sY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

The Twins liked Mr.. PIN PIN at
once. He was the fat, funny little
leader of the Brownies, you know, and
the children had come to help him.
What does fairness. or funniness, or
lumpiness count for if ones eyes are
kind and merry? And PIN Pins eyes
were the incest ever.
II must be going now" said the
Magical Mushroom when the how-do-
you-do's were over "You children are
all right with your Magical Shoes m
all, and I'm sure that the three of you
will get along famously. Mr.. PIN PIN
will show you where to dig the spark

if / am not mistaken, he has two en-
chanted shovels to give you. But there!
PIN PIN viii tell you all about shat
himself I'm only being gossip. Bye
bye, kiddies! BE good!" Then kissing
them both affectionately and shaking
hands, with the Brownie King, off
went the good old fairy. Or rather, out
he went, like a candle flame when you
blow it. One instant he was there, and
the next instant he wasn't, that was
all! That's what comes of being magi-
cal.
When he had gone, Mr.. PIN PIN
turned to Massey and Nick. Wei, well,

come at better time, for kip has just
been cutting up high jinks. You know
he used to be the leader of the Brown
les and is now trying to do what he
can to hinder me in my work. What do
you think he's done? stolen the key
to my cupboard where I had the show
els hidden. The worst Of it is that
he's skipped off through the secret
passage to the village Of the gnomes,

LOOK OUT FOR
THE TURKEY
By Or. B. 3. Rishop.

Thanksgiving is one Of two days in
the year when most people eat a whole
lot more than is good for them.
1t seems rather foolish to put ones
machinery out OF good running order
just because we are thankful for all we
have. II would seem more fitting 10
eat hygienically on this day OF all days
as mark of appreciation and thanks
giving for a healthy body.
Overeating is worse than undereat-
ing. 1t taxes the digestive organs, or
gans Of elimination, the heart and
many minor parts OF the wonderful
machine that is the human body.
It is quite likely that you viii be
off gear for two or three days after
ward if you eat too much turkey, an
extra amount Of mashed potatoes, too
much cranberry sauce and dressing
and many more delicacies. Then its
quite probable that after stuffing your
self 10 the absolute limit, the pumpkin
pie or the plum pudding with brandy
sauce appears and you, OF course, must
consume your share.
or course. after a few days. you VIII
feel just as fit again as before that
great feast. but why be SO foolish a.
to eat too much2
They often attribute the fall OF the
great Roman empire. in part, to the
fact that the old Romans were gour-
mands. They ate and drank all day
and a great part Of the night.

workings, can stand a great deal, vet

ance. Youth may not show the signs

the JOURNALS PLAN.

In The Journal of Tuesday morning,
II. L. Cant in a letter, which The Jour-
nal was glad to publish, in order that
Mr. Cant might explain his recent ar
ticle to the people, says:
my plea was for harmony peace
and means to end contention that
is detrimental to the best interests OF
Pensacola. Prolonged litigation that
dissipates resources can benefit neither
town nor tax payers. If The
Journal or anyone else viii suggest a
better plan that will tend to more
quickly give US municipal docks, will
support it. Let us have more docks
and less courts, whatever the site be,
and that at the earliest possible mo-
mento
What Mr.. Cant should have done,
was to have made this plea to the city
commissioners, and not to The Journal.
The Journal has no power to put an
end to the litigation. The city COM
missioners have. Prolonged litigation
dissipates. resources, it is very true,
and for that reason Mr.. Cant and
others who wish to see this matter adj
justed should turn their guns on the
city commissioners and not on The
Journal
The Journal has taken one stand
from the beginning and only one And
that is that the city commissioners
should get report on all sites and
then abide by the decision of the en-
gineers as to the site that is best for
the purpose Of a municipal dock, with
the money that is now at hand.
The commissioners have had one re-
port made to them on these sites.
which they have deliberately set aside,
and they have taken a communication,
not even a detailed report, or one en-
gineer on one site.
If the commissioners are not salts
fled to abide by the report made to
them by the Pensacola engineers, why
do they not call in competent trained
engineers from outside of Pensacola,
and have all sites examined and re-
ported upon?
The reason seems to be obvious. But
maybe there is a niger in the wood
pile, who could tell the reason why.

JOINT THANKSGIVING ARMIsTIcE
DAY PROPOSED.

A movement started in Canada to
combine Thanksgiving and Armistice
Day Is attracting attention in political
Washington. 1t is being pointed out
that Armistice Day has such a hold on
the affections of the public in this
country it win continue to be observed
to a greater or less extent regardless of
such congressional action as would
make of it a permanent holiday.
Armistice Day is November IL
Thanksgiving Day comes on the last
Thursday of November. Between
Thanksgiving and Christmas there is
but a short period. BY advancing
Thanksgiving Day to November III, say
those favoring the idea, a longer period
would result before Christmas is OBJ
served, and the sentiment which has
caused Thanksgiving Day to become
firmly implanted in the affections of
the American people would apply alike
to Armistice Day, one of thanksgiving.
Along this line, the Washington Her
lad adds, editoria1ly:
business men find that Christmas
shopping never begins until after
Thanksgiving. All individuals know
this to be a fact, This congests the
greatest buying period Of the year
into just one month. If it could be
spread out over two more weeks it
would be a great relief to merchants
and buyers: IT would reduce the ex-
pense and relieve the nerve strain IN
Icidentally, it would not run the Christ
mas school holiday quite so closely on
the heels of Thanksgiving vacation

EXCEPT The TURKEY

The First American Thanksgiving Day
was celebrated 500 years ago. If you
think that you haven't much to be
thankful for, this year, turn back the
clock to that first Thanksgiving
The Pilgrims landed on Plymouth
Rock on December 20, 1920. It had
taken them So days to cross the Allan
tic. The first winter was a terror of
bitter cold, disease and starvation The
woods were full of game, but they were
not skilled at hunting. They lad no
fish hooks small enough for the shore
angling CLAIMS were their chief food.
There We're 1o2 Pilgrims in that
Ioriginal settlement. Death claimed
half of them during the first winter.
In the spring an Indian named
Squanto taught them how to plant and
cultivate corn. Autumn brought the
first harvest. The pioneers celebrated
with the first Thanksgiving Day.
Though the Pilgrims underwent
Ifrightful hardships, such as crop fail
Iures, and usually had little to be thank
full for, they continued Thanksgiving
Day as permanent yearly custom.
Compare our lot with the Pilgrims'i
We have a thousand times as much to
Ebe thankful fon The war is over. Al
sane attempt to prevent another war
lis being made by the washington con-
ference. Harvests are big. Cost of
living is coming down. Business de-
preston is passing.
There have been fatter years in the
past than 1921. But, in view OF what
has preceded. and the prospects for the
future, it is doubtful if the American
people ever had as much cause to be
THANKFUL as they have this Thanks
giving Day.
Everyone but the Turkey should re-
joice.
