returned from Los Angeles, CAL, about
two weeks ago where he has been with
his family. Mrs. Naset and the chill
dren have Deen in California year and
Mr.. Naset spent about five months out
there. The medical treatment and eli
mate have proven beneficial to the eld-
est daughter who had mild attack of
infantile paralysis more than year
ago. She is now able to walk without
support, is growing normally. and the
chances of her recovery are favorable.

Mr.. James Menhall is home after
extensive trips through the South and
Southwest, ami also the Northwest, a
trip that took him from Minneapolis to
Memphis and Dallas, Texas, for the
purpose of sizing up business condi-
tions. He is impressed with the gen.
eral depression in all lines of business
activity, the tightness of the money
market, and the poor prospects of an
early recovery of business activity.
Reduction in cost of production to meet
the reduced buying power of the pub
lie has to come before a revival in the
movement of goods can set in, is the
sum and substance of the lesson Mr..
Menhall learned on his trip. Times in
Edgerton are so good, due to activity
in the tobacco industry, that we have
no idea of the hard times pressing else
where.
