SANTA. VISITS TOWN

Santa Claus came to, town last Sat-
urday Afternoon, driving in from the
north and stopping at the Stewart
Mercantile Co. store, where he talked
to the great gathering of little girls
and boys, who with their parents and
other grown ups, had gathered there
to welcome him.
Santa came, probably on a mission
of investigation to find out who were
the good youngsters of this con,.mun-
ity, so that he would know just where
to make his numerous stops on Christ
mas eve.
He distributed bags of candy to his
little friends, and then departed. He
was a happy, genial old fellow, and
even Col Robt. Reynolds, if lie had
played the role, couldn't have done it
any better than Santa Claus did him.
self
1t was a great day for the kiddies,
and their vociferous joy was reflected
in the merry countenances of the older
people, to whom the scene brought
happy memories of years gone by.
Excellent music was rendered
throughout the afternoon by Miss
Mildred Smith, piano, and H. Brad
ford of Hudson, Saxaphone.

HADDOW'S REPLY

The statement made by Messrs.
Severance and Swanson in last weeks
journal possibly leaves the impression
in some minds that | never made a
request of the committee on salaries
for the providing by the board of
contingent fund for the expenses in
the preparation for trial of criminal
cases. The facts are that | made
written request to the committee or
salaries and the committee on audit
ing claims and filed it with the COM
mittee on auditing claims. Mr.. Sew
erance was chairman of both these
committees, and if he examined the
claims he must have read this request.
because it was attached to the claim
is still on file with the county clerk,
and have a copy in my office so
there is no use in denying that this
request was made. Whether ] ap-
peared before the committee or not
can make no difference, since This
written request was filed with the
committee, and should have been acted
upon by the committee and report
made to the county board. do not
desire to enter into any extended con-
troversy in this matter and | trust
there will be no further need fer me
to further explain the facts.
1, have just received a letter fsossa
the Prohibition Commissioner at
Madison, in which he says among
other things, II am very sorry to
learn of your resignation, but under
the circumstances | cannot blame You.
A county of the size and wealth of
your county can hardly expect to be
properly represented on such mea-
ger salary. / wish to thank you for
the cooperation that this department
has received from you while in office,
and again regretting the necessity of
the termination of our pleasant reia-
tions."

Our Weekly Letter
From Washington
BY James A. Frear, NJ. c.

Remarks of Senators in closing days
of the extra Session were expunged
from the record on motion of Senator
Lenroot who asked that remarks of
Heflin of Alabama criticisirg Penrose
of Pennsylvania be stricken from the
record and similar motion of Senator
Curtis was adopted asking that criti-
cisms of Senator Reed of Missouri
against Representative Volstead be
expunged The first cleaning of the
slate arose from a clash over the
Newberry election case which goes
over to January before vote will be
reached to determine the validity of
Senator Newberry's seat and the
second case involved criticisms of Vol
stead by Reed and related to the anti
beer bill that passed the House some
months ago and was passed by the
Senate in the closing days in effect
multiplying the Treasury decision re-
garding use of beer as medicine.
Chairman Madden of the Appropria-
ton Committee stated to the House
while discussing the deficiency bill on
the day before adjournment that 3d.
900 ex-soldiers are receiving vocation
al training at cost of $126 per month
per man. lie utScTlDeu ilcIHouS pun
sued in one case when man with an
artificial leg went to one of the of
ficials to get strap for his leg.
Against his protests. he was told he
must first have his eyes examined by
a government occulist and then his
teeth were tested by government
dentist after which he was furnished
the strap. Madden criticized red tape
methods that were to blame for delay
and unnecessary expense. Madden
also criticized the Vocational Training
Bureau for paying $40 per lesson for
dancing teacher and $40 lesson
for singing teacher. Needless to
say some reforms will be introduced
that will cut down present extrava--
CANT methods of giving vocational
training to soldiers.

RURAL MAIL BOXES

A recent ruling Of the Post Office
Department requires that all postmas-
tiers make an inspection trip around
each of the rural routes from their Of
flee once in the spring. The purpose
Of this order is to have regular reports
made of rural mail Jokes which are
not maintained in good order as re-
quired by regulations and so report
also roads on the routes which are
not kept up as required.
Rural route patrons can avoid being
reported by giving attention to their
boxes at once. All boxes should be
firmly set at the proper height on a
strong post or other good support.
Many of them are wobbly or shaky,
thus making it difficult for the car
rier to serve them efficiently. Also
the doors must be in good order, and
not difficult to open. The regulations
require the name of the patron (not
the box numberl must be plainly
printed on each box. It is important
that the boxes be conveniently located
so the carrier can drive up to them
without difficulty: the rule of the de-
partment is that the boxes be placed
on the right hand side of the road as
the carrier drives.

GOVERNMENT SEEDS

River Falls, Wis.
The Agricultural Department has
asked me to send out free seeds for
distribution, which have been author
lied by Congress. AS | have publicly
stated limited number of packages
are issued to Members and if not use.i
are turned over to other Members or
to the Department for general distri-
button elsewhere.
Originally distributed them 70 in
dividuals with personally addressed
franks, but the expense is large III
this method of distribution (bourue by
Members) and very often seeds do not
reach the hands of those who can
make use of them. For this reason,
am again imposing on your generous
aid and am asking that the Depart
ment forward to you, when seadS are
distributed, fifty or one hundred pack
ages of seeds as may be determined,
which / will be glad to have you hand
to people who will make use of them.
Very sincerely.

Those desiring these seeds should
send word to the Journal at once so
that we can save them for you.
