a hollow log in that barn and many

Glad Bob Had Toothache
Mr.. r. C. Newsome, manager of
the United Cash Store of Marshville,
is a friend to humanity and is not in
the habit of rejoicing over other
peoples's misfortunes, but he appears
10 be rather elated over the fact that
Mr.. Bob Belk suffered with an aching
tooth TO the extent that il interfered
with his sleep a few nights ago. Bob
stood the suffering until about four
O'Clock in the morning when he arose
and started in search of doctor. As
he passed the United Cash Store
Company's store he discovered fire in
the grocery department of the build
ing. The discovery of the fire at
tracted Mr.. Belk's mind for the mo-
ment and he forgot his toothache
long enough to arouse interested par
ties and the fire was extinguished
before much damage was done, and
that's why Mr.. Newsome is glad Bob
had toothache.

For some time he has been troubled
with rats about his barn. He tried
poisoning and that wouldn't work,
for they were wise old fellows. Fin
ally he originated plan of his own.
He went into the woods and sawed a
hollow log about eight feet long and
nailed a plank over one end, leaving
the other open. He placed the-log
in his barn and piled fodder upon il
and waited few days for the rats
to learn that IL was an excellent place
in which to hide. Then he went back
TO the barn and moved his fodder
and raised cane in general. The rats
at once took refuge in the hollow
log. Brownlow then closed in upon
them and stopped up the end of the

SOLACE FROM LONG BEACH

The delusion Of the wonderful eli
mate of California is bursted in the
following letter written by an Iowa
woman to the Des Moines Capital and
! for the amusement of those who did
not go to California to spend this win
ter we quote freely from it:
Can you imagine me, Mr.. Editor,
writing this beneath a magnolia tree,
wearing a sweet pink thing and an
ostrich fan, surrounded by orchids and
lilies, with a plate of ripe strawber-
ries near? Can you? Well, don't do
it, for | am not; neither is anyone else
in California. | am wrapped up in an
army blanket, bumped over a gas
heater. Being something of a philo-
sopher myself, and having learned
more out of things than there really is
in them, | can understand in a way
how the Californians have come to be-
lieve the things they say about the
climate. 1t may be a Land of Sun
shine and Flowers" but | am positive
it is a land of exaggeration, and that
is why | am thinking of Home, Sweet
Home"
The damage to orchards is immeas-
urable, and the health of the people
severely threatened, influenza is rag
ing.
In spite Of the discomforts, | have
enjoyed many Of the beauties Of the
country. The ancient missions, the
wondrous orange and walnut grove
grape vineyards, the mountains and
the ocean.
Long Beach is a city about the size
of Cedar Rapids, 20 miles from Los
Angeles, and right on the seashore.
1t has plenty of rain and a very poor
drainage system. Most of the houses
are built without chimneys, furnaces
or fireplaces. No Major Johnson
housese here! People who want to
get warm use what they call a gas
heater. 1t is portable and you can
carry it around with you from room to

McMASTER SPEAK HERE

Answering every question put by
his opponent and mailing every lie
with inconvertible facts, Governor w.
Master made a powerful campaign al
dress before an audience Of one thou
sand interested hearers on Monday
night at the college auditorium. The
governor was introduced by Attorney
Olaf Eden and at once launched into
a spirited answer to the attacks made
by opponents Of the present admins
tration. He paid a special tribute to
State college and to the vocational
men in training there.
He discussed at length the rural
credits law and the method of it's OPP
Grafton showing the great benefits
which have resulted to the farmers of
the state. He pointed out the fact
that South Dakota has had fewer bank
failures than any other state in the
union FOR no other reason than the
operation of a successful rural credits
law. The farmers in several other
states are demanding a law similar tC
the South Dakota law.
He punctured the balloon Of his OPP
ponent on the question of the normou
state debt which has been piled up IL
the last year or two, claimed by Egar
to have been one hundred and fifty
million or so, but which in reality 1!

sists of soldiers bonus bonds. TIL,
governor corrected innumerable mis-
statements which his opponent ha'
made in trying to discredit the pres
ent administration.
The governor told some OF the re
suits Of the fight which the state has
been making against the confiscator,
freight rates charged by the railroads
made and more are expected to fol
low. He made a strong plea for the
st. Lawrence deep waterway which
will bring the ocean a thousand miles
nearer South Dakota and materially
assist in solving the farmers trans.
pOrtdtlOn problems.
He regretted the necessity Of max.
ing any personal attack upon his op-
ponent but in retaliation he had no
other course to follow. He referred
to the list of ten questions which he
asked Egan at Sioux Falls but did not
read them out Of respect for the
women present.
