G THE MINISTERIAL PROFESSION ATTRACTIVE

To judge by reports church journals and the
testimony high in church circles the church today stands
greatly need of consecated young ministers. The de-
mand is greater supply Time
churches satisfied to have minister circuit minister
divided his between several charges. But today

demand exceeds the supply
There should be way Of making the ministry

Laymen awaken to the spirit Of the day and give the
ministerial profession its just deserts The time is longer

little money here and there keep the wolf away
when he should be required to write his bare

American Legion
Boys Have Very
Enjoyable Time

Members of the American Legion,
numbering about thirty, met Monday
night for few social hours togeth-
er. Whist was the principal enjoy
ment, at least, after you consider
the eats. Smokes" were indulge d
in by those who just naturally
smoked in anti-bellum DAYS, and by
those who swore allegiance to Lady
Nicotine during army vigil.
But probably the most enjoyable
part u the evening was the swap
ping of army experiences. Tales of
daring adventure, thrilling esca-
pades and mighty heroism hitherto
unknown and now modestly reveal
ed, were recounted to awe struck
liteners, and one legionite fought
the battle of the Marne all over
again. SO graphically that we dnder-
stand the sound of Lizzie on the
street outside was mistaken for n
Bertha
Take it all in all, the boys had a
good time, and will probably dupli-
cate it more than once in the months
to come.

Hard's birthday. The party took
along with them an ample supply
of good things to eat, and walked
in on the old couple unannounced,
making it a complete surprise. AZ
ter everybody had enjoyed a feast
the remainder of the time was given
over to a very pleasant social visit.
The party will, no doubt, be the
means of many happy thoughts in
quiet moments to the aged couple.

Harry Smith Has
Turned Scientist:
Made Discovery

Harry Smith, formerly employed
in the Dady barber shop here as a
hair remover, but for the past few
months engaged in extensive re-
search work in Minneapolis, came
in the other day to spend few days
with old Sisseton friends.
One definition for a barber is CIV

versatiOnalist, who occasionally
shaves and cuts hair" But some.
how this never did seem to fit in
with the subject of this sketch. So
far as the shaving and hair cutting
part of it goes. Harry was always
up to standard, but the conversa-
tional portion of the definition was
by no means marked characteris-
tic OF Harry. Quite to the contrary,
he seemed to always be in what
might be termed sub-conscious
mood, and the reason was never ex-
actly understood by those who fire.
quented the Dady tonsorial parlors.
However. there is always a reason
for everything, and Harry's case is
in no wise an exception.
1t now develops that our Harry
has, for the past twenty years, been
thinking. Constantly coming in
contact, as barber must, with
hairless domes, he was in position
as only a barber can be to study the
deeply-hidden cause and effect, so
being of somewhat sympathetic
nature, he decided, some twenty
years ago, to take up reseach work
along the line of bacteriology-
whatever that is-in an effort to
ferrit out the cause and discover
cure for bald heads, which had been
not only irritating, but very un-
remunetrative to him as a trades
man. This it seems he has done far
beyond our most sanguine hopes,
and proven himself bacteriologist
of no mean ability. His preparation
is called the H. O. Smith Chemical
Hair and Scalp Treatment, and is
guaranteed to grow hair on a bill
lard ball, gumbo butte Orwell
anything. He says that his prep
aration goes right to work and
penetrates to the seat Of the trouble
and simply knocks the darn little
bacterium stiff
Personally. we know not bloom
in thing about the merits or de-
merits of Smiths reroofing concoc-
tion, but its safe bet that il you
call on Harry for information he
will show you-make you believe
how to make two hairs grow
where only one-or none-grew be-
fore. Exit baldheads.

COW HIDE
MARKET
ON ROCKS
FARMER SHIPS HIDE TO WATER.
TOWN, AND is SERVED WITH
STATEMENT FOR 41C
DUE FOR FREIGHT

You have no doubt heard OF the
farmer who shipped some sheep and
whea the car OF sheep arrived AT
market, the shipper was served with
notice from tine commission mer-
chants to the effect that he must
send Them $40 to pay the difference
IN the price of what the sheen
brought and the cost of shipping and
handling OF the car of sheep. Where
upon the farmer sent notice to the
commission merchants that he did
not have any money, but that he did
nave more sheep. AS to the truth
OF this we are NOT able "a say. but
IN the face of prevailing facus and
lsufes IN oJner similar transactions.
we must confess the above instance
is by no means thing to be doubt
ed, and that it must have had it's
origin IN fact.
10 go further, let us take a case
founded upon actual facts, reclte the
particular operation, give the figures
and statement of the commission
merchant and see if it does no. COM
pare favorably with the sheep story.
A Farmer came into the office a
few days ago and handed us a piece
OF paper which proved to be state
ment from the Watertown Hide &
Fur Co., OF Watertown, s. d., for
Al cents due them ON a COW hide
which had been shipped them by
Mr.. Theodore Nicholson, OF Hills
head. S. d.
We will give the contents OF the
statement verbatim as set forth by
the fur company: One frozen hide,
gross weight 33 pounds, tare four
pounds, net weight 80 pounds. at 6
cents a pound, $1.74; less freight,
S2.l5. leaving balance yet due the
fur company of u cents. A nota-
tion at the bottom of the statement
read as follows: Nov il you wish,
we will return your hide to you il
you will refund us $2.15, the amount
that we paid on the freight charges
coming here" This would have
meant that in the event the hide
had been returned to Mr.. Nicholson
he would have been out the sum of
$3.50 for transportation charges
and the only thing he would have
had to show for his efforts to mar
ket his hide would have been the
deficit of $4.3O and the hide not
yet sold. What do you think Of
that for a money-making scheme?
Rather get-rich-quick proposition,
isn't it?-for the fur company.
Vet you constantly hear from the
reactionary press the claptrap
against farmer organization, and
that there is nothing wrong, that
the farmer should get out of poll
tics and attend to his own business
and let the other fellow do the same.
are crazy, but it won't go with any
one who is capable of intelligent
thinking. If the farmer wants to
buy a pair of shoes for himself or
one of the family, the story is quite
different one. 1t is probably SO
to $40 for the shoes from a hide
that he probably had to pay a pre-
MUM on in order to get some COM
mission man to take it of his hands.
Think it over.
