SAFETY FIRST
Continued from page u

Of the disaster, that it was only an acct
dent that will happen. That they were
only poor miners. That is all very true
but it doesn't alter the situation in the
least.
Some one has to 60 down into the bowels
of the earth to bring out the metals which
have become indispensable to mankind,
and while they are down there they should
be furnished with adequate safety devices
to protect their lives.
My plea as miner, to all those in posi-
ton to do SO, is to use their influence to
have law passed that will put fire doors in
all mines. The only safety devices they have
is keyboard at the stations which reads,
Push nine times in case of fire." If the
men on the surface were unable to 90
down into the mine with gas masks on,
what chance have the men in the mine got
without them?

HELEN MARIE

Today you are but four years old,
But, my! what mass of gold
Adorns your pretty little head of hair.
And your big, big, blue eyes SO full of
A girl, but as lively as the liveliest little
boy,
And your daddy, Helen Marie, does he
for you care?
How he loved to watch you romp around
the place,
Candy sticky hands, bright and smiling
face.
Often daddy watched you play from where
In your own little furnished room,
While he was yet at home;
Lordy! how he loves you, you happy,
carefree little kid.
Many times there were, dad had the blues,
And held some rather sinful views
Of everyone and everything in this old
world,
But the dav you came, then smiled,
Dad found at once, though a tiny child,
You could teach him how to live baby
girl.
What heaps and heaps of bliss
There is in your each sweet, childish
kiss.
How daddy longs again to hear you say
your prayer,
For your words and ways are so divine,
And they've changed dads heart, little
girl o'mine;
Your smiles and tears, too, Helen, tell
him that you care.
L'enVoi
May peace and joy be ever yours,
Your life one long roundelay
Are daddy's heartiest wishes, on this,
Your fourth birthday.

MIRRORETTES

Father Barry celebrated mass in the
chapel Sunday morning.
-"'You can't teach an old dog new
tricks That depends ON the dog"
The usual yard privileges were ex-
tended to, and enjoyed by, the night crew
On Monday.
The Saxophone Quartette made a
great hit with the audience, in our last
movie show, in their rendition of num-
Der of popular selections.
"A splendid program is being prepared
for the Pierian Chautauqua Circle quar-
terly meeting to be held in the auditorium
in the near future.
"A great deal of interest is being man
ifested by our inmates in the pictures of
the "far north" as portrayed by the James
Oliver Curwood scenic productions.
1t looked to us as if the St. Paul City
Railway baseball club slipped trolley
Saturday last. See what our baseball re-
porter says about the game on page four.
LET man be assured that he has to
become able, some day, to bear everything
and he will meet his present difficulties
gladly, welcoming them as they come, as
the athlete does his trainer"
1t looked very dubious Saturday for
our usual yard privileges, but, our mascot
was right on the job and the day cleared
up and we had the satisfaction of seeing
our boys take revenge upon the visiting
ball team for the defeat they sustained
on the previous Saturday.

Sales Dept. is going around with Sunny
Jim" smile on his face and passing out
cigars on account of new arrival in his
home, on September 18th, of an eight and
one-half pound girl. THE MIRROR extends
congratulations to the happy couple.
Our boys will have hard proposition
on their hands when they meet the Hud-
son Railway Shop baseball club on Satur-
day next. However, we believe they are
equal to the occasion and that after the
battle is over they will have added another
victory to their long list of victories.
i wish some of our poets would write
birthday poem for my sister whose birth
day is October 9th. She will be fifteen
years old. l have not seen her since she
was eleven years old, she was only three

states in her letter that she is five feet high
and weights one hundred and thirty
pounds. Her name is Matilda Clara, she

Two roads lead out from poverty
To ease and wealth galore.
One of them is "do without"
And one is make some more"
One or. the othc- each must take.

My hands are rough and brown from

In kitchen su6s and garden Dirt
But they can thrill my husband yet
And smooth away my child-ens hurt.
They know the JOY of making things,

They are not soft, white, young girls

But those Of Mother and of wife.

A well known musical critic claims that
the man who invented Jazz got the idea
while travelling on milk train in South
ern Minnesota when an expressman tipped
over truck load of empty milk cans.
Some folks don't know how much they
don't know.
One of the reasons why so many don't
want to start on journey on Friday is
because Saturday is pay day and they have
to wait until then.
The new tariff bill places ivory on the
free list. Congress must feel that Bone
heads don't need protection. Well they
ought to know.
Just because you cast a big shadow is
no sign you are big man.

SAVE THE COUPONS

With his chewing gum, Wrigley gives
coupons away,
He gives thousands and thousands away
every day,
You get good things for nothing, you just
bet you can;
But how he can do it, | don't under
stand.
For two cent stamp, he will send without
delay,
A book showing fine gifts, in gorgeous
display;
Then all you need do is save a coupon or
two,
And pick out the gift that looks good to
you.
After saving your coupons for five years
Just count them over before you 60
And send for that tin lizzy you would
like to get,
For you may need few thousand yet.
Don't get discouraged and quit because of
that
Just keep on saving coupons and stand
pat.
For in another five years, or maybe ten,
You will sure have enough to send for
it then.
With due respect for both Wrigley and
gum,
You can thank your stars you've never
begun
Saving those coupons day after day,
Just to get something that's given away.

EARLY SEEDING MAKES

rye and winter wheat yields are in
creased by early sowing.

ditions favorable for termination and
growth with as good results as early
seedlings. Winter grains sown the lat.

NOT AN ISSUE IN SEVENTH

La Toilette and his party made no
threat toward restoration of "wet"
conditions in Wisconsin. Notwith-
standing this fact, the opposition un-
dertook to inject into the campaign the
wet" and "dry" issue as the bone of
contention of the big battle. It was
sought to mobilize every minister in
the state, ostensibly to fight booze, but
in practice to oppose the La Toilette
platform.
Not one word about the prohibition
issue appeared in the La Toilette plat
form. La Toilette refused to discuss
the issue in his speeches. He held
that the issue had been raised to OBJ
scure the true issue of public interest
VS.. special privilege and he refused
to be a party in leading the people
down blind alley. The result proved
that the people of Wisconsin believed
La Toilette. Trying to pull reaction
airy chestnuts out of the fire will not
do any good to the prohibition cause.
The same tactics are being tried in
the Seventh District Of Minnesota.
Here there is certainly no reason for
injecting the wet" and dry" issue
as MIR. Kvale, the progressive candi
date, is we'll known as a dry advo
cate. Progressive men or women in
the Seventh district need not hesitate
to vote for their convictions on the
important economic issues of the day

Bought Pres. Spring. Wild Tale for
" Kellogg .. Ladd, Unaware Of
- n. \. L. IS n Europe =. !.

Just as Senator Ladd Of North Da-
kota sailed for Europe, the fixed press
Of. Minnesota let. loose a wild, story
that the Lacquer would come to Min
nesota to- speak for kellogg: This: is
part of the present press campaign to /
make Kellogg appear as progressive
Republican instead OF the G. o. p.
that he is. ... 80: -
It is also reported that Clifford Pin:
chot and Albert ]. Beveridge who de-
feated the G. O. p. like Kellogg in
Pennsylvania and Indiana will come
here to aid Kellogg. Their coming is
not so impossible as the coming Of
they are not such tricksters until we.
see more definite proof.
We wrote Senator Ladd's secretary
at Washington as soon as the Kellogg
press brought out this story and re-
ceived the following reply:
To the Editor of the Leader:
Your letter of August 16 is received
in the absence of Senator Ladd, who
| is taking trip to Europe. His item
erary takes him to Germany, France,
Australia, Switzerland, with a few
days in England upon his return. He
is expected back about the first week
in October and the only speaking ar
rangement that the Office is aware of
is the campaign in the state of North
Dakota, which includes the month OF
| October. l know OF no arrangements
that the senator has made in regard
i to speaking in the state of Minnesota.
D. H. Macarthur, secretary.
The Pioneer Press OF St. Paul in it's
attempt to make Kellogg appear pro-
gressive said:
Senator Ladd, North Dakota, has
offered to make several speeches for
Kellogg. His offer has surprised asst
J. ute politicians, who are reminded that
Ladd's leaning is toward the Non-par
tisan league, which is entirely out Of
, favor with Kellogg. Ladd's answer is
that Kellogg's influence has done
, much to promote legislation favorable
: to the farmers of his state when hi
J GLADLY found lit impossible to put il
across.
: The Press will never publish de
t NAL Of such a story, of course, ant
thus the mischief will not be undont

KELLOGG IS DONE FOR

Editor Tribune:
When Governor Preus, in his talk at
the State Fair Grounds last Tuesday,
introducing the Vice President, men,
toned the name of "our illustrious
junior senator-the Hon. Frank B.
Kellogg" and stopped expecting to
be greeted with round of applause,
in all the vast audience numbering
many thousands, scarcely a hundred
persons took the trouble to clap their
hands or manifest any expression of
their feelings.
In my judgment Shipstead is a sure
winner, if the expressions l heard on
the fairgrounds is true index to the
situation. 'tNewberryism" and the
guaranteeing of profits to the railroads
and thereby among other things add
ing at least S. per ton to the cost Of
coal in Central and Western Mime
sofa, has done the business for Kel
logg in the opinion of

cess profits.

heritance tax rates upon real estates
to be applied upon war debts.
