One. other thing: Redwood Falls can't congratu-
late her self too much on her fire chief 1--WE are
not expecting free ticket to the annual hre-
mems ball, but we do want to get this thing out
of our systemD It is no small thing to have
man of the calibre of the present chief, careful,
watchful, everlastingy on the job and with ab-
solute ability for properly directing his helpers.
Exasperatingly quiet he is when some Hubble
dubby person whatever kind that isl wants to
find Outright away-"all about the hre," but
we'll even forgive him that grievous fault IN
view of some of his many virtues We should
say that if the present chief ever goes out OF
office the city should insist that J. Corbett take
his place as we believe him to be equally as good
as the present man; second choice would be
j. J. Corbett, and if we can't get him, let's take
Joe They are fine quartet OF brothers-and
we are for any one Of them as the head OF the

they will look after things. Sure they will. They

Some persons of our acquaintance took excep-
ton to some of the things said by Harry Loose,
the Chicago detective, in his speech at the Arm
DRY last Wednesday evening. 1t is because peo-
pie don't like to hear such things, don't like to
think such things, that the condition which made
Mr.. Losses talk necessary, exists. Mothers and
daughters have disliked to face these conditions,
have dsliked to think of the horrors Of them and
consequently, we repeat, they continue to exist.
But we in the country towns must remember that
it isn't the sassy little working girl of Chicago
who needs this guardianship education and
training, regretable they may be, are her
weapons of warfare. It's the innocent and ignor-
ant little country girl who suffers; the theory
that purity is its own protection has been shown
inadequate in practice. It might be well, as Mr..
Loose suggested, for mothers and daughters to
think and speak of these things confidentially in
the "sanctity, the purity and the sweetness OF
their own homes" To object to the suggestion
that they should be thought of and spoken of, is
to admit to willingness to shirk necessary re-
sponsibility.

..,rHE GREAT WERE ONCE AS YOU"
The great were once as you,

The great were once as you,
They whom men magnify today
Once CROPPED and Numbered on life's way,
Were fearful Of themselves, and thought
BY magic was mems greatness wrought;
They feared to try what they could 90;
Yet Fame hath crowned with her success
The self-same gifts that you possess.
The great were once as you,
Dreaming the very dreams you hold,
Longing yet fearing to be bold,
Doubling that they themselves possessed
The strength and skill for every test;
Uncertain of the truths they knew,
Not sure that they could stand to fate
With all the courage Of the great.
Then came a day when they
Their first bold venture made;
Scoring to cry for aid,
They dared to stand to fight alone,
Took up the gauntlet life had thrown,
Charged full-front to the fray,
Mastered their fear of self, and then
Learned that our great men are but men.
Oh, man, go forth and do!
You, too, to fame may rise;
You can be strong and wise.
Stand up to life and play the man
You can if you'll but think you can;
The great were once as you.
You envy them their proud success,
Twas won with gifts that you possess.

We should like nightly to hear A. L. Haines,
the field secretary of the Duroc breeders of South
Dakota, talk sometime when he didn't have his
mind on selling pigs Mr.. Haines' talk at the
Nafsinger sale last Thursday was full of help
full and interesting information to breeders and
farmers and was given in forceful and enter
tanning way. But it was talk of ocassion, and
we have idea that, lacking the specific qualifi-
cations of such OCCASION, Mr. Haines would hold
the interested attention of intelligent agricultur
lists and give them valuable food for thought.
We should like, more than anything, to hear him
give real, Neutrality-suspicious. talk on the Pig
Club work of South Dakota Judging by the few
statistics he gave Thursday, that state has done
some wonderful work with the boys and girls in
these clubs.

DIR. Clarence Stratton, director Of English in
the public schools of Cleveland makes the follow
ing statement concerning the use of slang.
IT do not advocate the use of slang. A
constant use of it is the resort Of the man or
woman too lazy to seek out the proper words.
It's constant use is a badge of linguistic bank
ruptcy. If your only word for any agreeable
thing from new pair Of ear muffs to sun
rise is swell you are advertising the fact that
you have lost all sense of the inherent quality
of words"

w being woman we reckon We'll say them!
It has occurred to us-and so we learn has it
to other residents of Redwood Falls-that we
often fail to Appreciation even to recognize
what a splendid fire protection this small city
has.
About the time of the last fire here, when
Joe Corbett and his men saved thousands Of
dollars of property by careful and intelligent
work, there occurred similar fire in farm
home in a neighboring county. The nearest
town had no fire truck and no adequate fire
fighting materials, water, were available;
consequently amateur firemen took possession
of the scene and as result the interior of the
house and it's furnishings were frightfully dam
aged with water. There was also much dam
age from breakage caused by moving articles of
furniture which would under trained direction
have stayed where they were We don't know
what the actual damage was, but know that,
because of the way in which the workers
worked it was larger than it need to have been.
Of course our fremen are excellently and
marvelously we'll pad They should do the best
of work because pay them the magnificent
sum of one dollar call. Wouldn't anyone be
glad to arise blithely at two A. M. at the call OF
the siren 1--WE all know what a beautiful note
she has dI Cliue III CHc uoii q AAe'iiNS
garment or two, and sally FORTH never knowing
how big or how dangerous or who hard the
"job" may be-just knowing that it must be
done in hurry if life and property in the old
home town are to be kept safe. One dollar
call! How many of us who hear the siren and
Just snugge down little deeper under the
blankets, knowing that the boys are on the job
and that everything will be taken care Of, would
do
for dollar per jump?
But they don't do it for the dollar If they
did it wouldn't be done. They do it because
that is their way of proving themselves the
right good citizens they are, because they are
willing to make personal sacrifice for the pro-
lection of their community. There is nothing
cold-blooded or selfish about it, and the dollar
is, Judging from their actions, the least OF
their troubles.
Incidentally, the fact that Redwood Falls sew
veral years ago expended sum of money for
splendid and modern type of fire truck isn't any
thing to keep the tax payers from their sleep
o'nights, either. We recently heard a citizen
we later learned that he merely voted but does
not pay taxes-lamenting, in dead-broke sort
of wall that the city had "tied up all that money
in a fire truck which almost never used"
Imagine getting all work worked up and sor-
rowful because fire truck is seldom used!
But the next time you hear that wall or any
thing similar, just remember that it is that
truck that gets the boys and their fre-eaters
on the scene in about two jerks after the call
comes in Two minutes from the note Of the
siren until they were out Of the barn and away
is the record one watch-holding citizen says they
made last election day. It's ffty-ffty with the
truck and the boys-and the combination can't
be beat! But either one would be horribly in
efficient without the other.
