Hero Wanted

"There is nothing new under the
sum-" said Solomon, and the same
holds true of the New York Sun as
we'll as many other respectable pa
pers. The Sun prints an editorial on
the monster that blocks the way to
prosperity and the hero that attacks
the monster But" says the Sun,
"the picture is unconvincing." The
monster represents, of course, eco
nomic depression and the hero Amer
lean business" or Optimism" Then
the Sun lays the blame on high rail-
road rates that are caused by the
enormous wages paid to the railroad
men. Now, if these fellows and all
other laboring men would only agree
to lower their wages below the ante
bellum standard we would attain pros
perity at a bound, business would
boom temporarily and land values
would soar to undreamed heights.
This is the reason all land owners
are praying for reduced wages. Now,
where is the hero who will destroy
the monster of economic depression
by lowering the wages of the railroad
employees?

LUDENDoRFF'S NEXT WAR

General Ludendorff is about to pub
fish a book, "War and Politics." in
which he summons the German people
to prepare for a new war, says the
New York Tribune. The general has
never forgiven his countrymen for let
ting him lose the last war; He doesn't
want to be embarrassed that way
again. Therefore he adjures the Ger
mans to become more monarchist and
"Prussian" than they were before and
to put themselves in a frame of mind
in which they will not let anything
hinder the work of the great general
staff.
Ludendorff conveniently forgets that
as early as August, 1918, he was sug-
costing the application for mediation
and peace. 1t was one of his own
staff officers who started the final
peace-at-any-price panic in Berlin.
Yet he keeps on saying that Germany
was betrayed by the Liberal and So
cialist politicians, who toward its end
used the war. to extort concessions on
the question of the Prussian franchise.
He can never fully express his detesta-
ton of Bethmann-H ollweg, who cater
ed to the Socialists In order to keep
them in line with the government, or
for men like Rathenau, who doubted
whether return Of the Kaiser in tri.

Profound Thinkers

The great national leaders of
thought have devised the following
solutions of the economic chaos into
which we are descending:
1. Reduce workingmen's wages.
2. End the buyers strike by buying
even things you don't want.
3. Save every penny possible and
put it in the savings bank.

A CONVERSATION BETWEEN
THE OLD STOVE AND THE
BATTERED LANTERN

One night farmer came in from
driving the cows to pasture. He put
his lantern on the stove and went off
to bed, as he was quite tired from the
toll of the day.
A quiet conversation arose between
the stove and the lantern. They both
had adventures to tell. The stove be-

ARMISTIcE DAY

Germany was surely ready to repent
at the eleventh hour, for at that time
on the eleventh day of the eleventh
month of the year 1918 went into effect
the armistice between the United
States and her Allies on one side, and
Germany on the other.
A false message of the signing of
the armistice had been issued on No.
vember s, 1918, by the United States
papers, and as soon as it reached the
people, all the schools, business places,
factories and shops were abandoned.
All the people, rich and poor, laborer
and capitalist, marched arm in arm,
overjoyed by the glorious message. In
New York City all windows in the high
office buildings were filled with people,
who were shouting, yet November IL
has become one of the great dates in
world history, but it was already great
in the United States, as it happened
that three hundred years before, in
1920, the Pilgrims made contract in
the cabin of the Mayflower that start
ed the making Of this great republic.
The 18th Of November should be
another Thanksgiving day, as it was
the date of triumph of nation whose
entrance into the world war deter
mined beyond question it's final re-
suit and it should be celebrated as a
legal holiday.

at the result of the Cleanup Cam

ed.

presented claims twenty-seven had
their claims allowed and are much
satisfied with the decisions given
This leaves only two whose claims
were not allowed and their cases will
be considered in full little later.
Much of the success of this meeting
is due to the work which has been
done for the past year and more by
Glen Lukens, Secretary of the Red
wood County Red Cross who worked
in the county last year, and by Mrs
Maude Winter who worked first as
social worker for the Redwood Falls
Red Cross Branch and later, following
