The Sash is Back

Here Is the inevitable sash again!
No gown this season is complete
without It's accompanying sash, or
sashes, for indeed sometimes you'll
find that by the changing OF a sash
you change your gown-and profit.
ably SO! For the effect is almost
that of another dress without the
expense.
The three sashes shown, however
are conservative. Light gray Is
used with the black Canton crepe
|frock and notice the wooden bead
block trimming. Effective and
quite simple.
The gown of the handsome en-
broidering needs no other trimming.

a rose undersltp, or in rose over a
turquoise slip. tf you wish to be a

But for Bob and for me, every

It behooved me to put away trt.

and to enter into the glory OF

Bob came, inspected the little

That brevity was SO like him:
The depth of his emotion I guessed

COUNTY FAIRS.

t<"HE county fair" remarks the Long Prai-
RE Leader, ais the county's annual play
day and vacation time, thousands Of
families from all over the>county uniting to enjoy
the entertainment provided and joining hands to
boost the county's farm reputation. The fair is a
great thing. Besides providing lot OF clean
and wholesome entertainment at a minimum OF
cost it is powerful factor in stimulating agri-
cultural, particularly live stock and dairy COW
development The county fair is great big CO.
operative institution every dollar taken in at the
gate going right back to help make the fair
bigger and better fair capable Of furnishing more
and better entertainment and doing wider and
more extensive work for farm development. The
county fair does nothing but good. 1t has no
purpose but to help the county
We concur in those so-well expressed encomi-
ums upon the county fair County fairs are
worthy of encouragement and support. For truly
as Editor Lee has said above, they have no pur-
pose but to serve the county.
Let us all show encouragement to our county
fairs and thus do our share of helping your coun-
|ty. Editor Lee gives rugged word-plcture OF
creature up there who is knocking the Todd
County Fair. ''It has remained for an outsider,
an intruder, carpetbagger, a man who never
saw or heard of Todd county up to short time
ago and who will never see it again after his pay
check stops and he travels on, man who knows
nothing about Todd county, its people or its re-
sources and who cares nothing about its future

the gospel of the booster: "For Home and Coun-

We have no great aspirations concerning Red
wood Falls ever becoming throughly metropolitan
in her ways-in fact we like most Of our small
town ways plenty well enough-they make us
feel so right at home! But why, will some one
please tell is it not entirely possible, practicable
and suitable that deliveries ETC., be made at rear
doors in the downtown section. So far as we can
see alleys are in travelable condition and were
largely designed to accommodate delivery service.
It certainly detracts much from business places
to have merchandise leaving or entering by the
front door when patrons are present. Is it
thoughtlessness or is it that we just don't know
any better? Anyway little united effort would
correct the matter.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1921-09-14

We believe that the people of the state would,
if given the opportunity to express themselves,
endorse the position taken by Congressman
Frank Clague on the recently enacted revenue
bill In defense of other Minnesota congressman,
who voted for the bill, it may be said that rev.
enue legislation is always matter of compromise
between sectional interests, and that they pro-
badly did what they could to make the bill as
acceptable as possible to the people of the North
west before voting for it. However, in the next
political campaign, Mr.. Clague will have the bet
ter record to stand on.-Dawson Sentinel.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1921-09-14

We wonder if people of this section of Mime
sofa really know what hard times are. Marshall
gathered together a vast crowd when the big
circus visited her recently, and the Labor Day
celebration at Redwood Falls called together
about twenty-five hundred, who attracted
by ball game and dance. That may be a
sign that times demand economy, but can't
interpret it just that way. There seems to be
money always and a-plenty for a good time.
Perhaps we are not so lacking in dollars we
are lacking in balance.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER IA. 1921.
AT THE TOP.
By Edgar A. Guest.

BY Edgar "A. GueSC
Whenever you see someone up at the top,
Don't imagine he got there by luck,
For back Of his glory lies many story
OF battle and struggle and pluck;
He may seem to be taking things easy today
And lodging the trials which irk,
But the years of his past, from the first to the
last,
We're constant succession of work.
Whenever you see someone crowned by sue
cess,
Don't fancy he won it by chance,
Tho he's walking today an easier way,
And YOU cannot behold with glance
The scars of his battle, just keep this in mind
Lies laurels don't go to the shirk,
And if you but knew his life history thru,
You'd know that he once had to work
Success doesn't come to the indolent hand,
With busy men life is concerned;
Be the man who he may, he will find on the
That it's prizes all have to be earned
So whenever you gaze on leader of men,
Up on top where the glory is fair,
You can know with his luck there were >cour-
age and pluck
You can bet that he worked to get there.

Parents in the vicinity of Redwood Falls stated
last week that they didn't know school was to
start last Tuesday. Pretty thin! Just an ex-
cuse to keep the children out for a few days more
help about the farm. The fact that these chill
dren will be handicapped throughout the entire
year by tardy starting means nothing in the
lives Of these parents. Thank goodness there
are only few of that kind in this vicinity.
