POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT.
Prepared BY The Sleepy Eye Her
ald-Dispatch and Paid For By
George Berkner.

George Berkner Of Sleepy Eye, who
is a candidate for the office of Repre-
sentative from Brown county, is a
man who has spent an active life in
the interest Of the community Of which
he has been part.
Coming to Brown county from Wis
consin i1903) where he held various
otficestlof public trust. he located 1on
alarm near Sleepy Eye.
With Others he was among the first
to see, the need of centralzing the
manufacture Of dairy products and re-
ducing the cost Of their manufacture
to minimum. Also becoming aware
Of the inefficient methods Of handling
and disposing Of live stock, the idea Of
cooperation among the farmers be-
came a reality in the organization Of
the Farmers Shipping Association.
The association is one Of the oldest
Of its nature in the state and we feel
safe in saying, one Of the most sue
cessful. Having been among the fore
most in the organization Of these en-
terprises, he was chosen as their
president, which office he still holds.
Mr.. Berkner was made president
of the, Brown County Farm Bureau
upon it's organization and served at
its head until he was prevailed upon
to enter the race for representative,
when he resigned his position. He
says the Bureau is not in politics,
and he did not wish to take advantage
of his position to further his candi-
dacy.
Mr.. Berkner served as treasurer Of
his school district a number of years;
also as the president of the Farmers
Club. Upon moving to Sleepy Eye
he became member of the council,
a position which he still holds; also
elected vice president of the State
Bank.
Realizing as he does that agricul-
| ture is the very foundation stone Of
our prosperity he is always in the
front rank helping to boost for any
thing that will benefit the farmer.
His efforts have ever been Of sound
constructive nature aud he is never
too busy to spend z day, a week or
even a month in any project which he
believes will benefit the community
Mr.. Berkner's experience fits him
most admirably for the position which
he seeks and we believe if he succeeds
to the Office CT Representative he will
be able to do more for Brown county
in the way Of constructive legislation
and appropriations than almost any
other man that could be elected.

POLITICAL ADvER TIsEMENT.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1922-11-08

A good attendance was reported
at the recent childlen's health con-
ference held in Decorah, and all parts
Of the county were represented.
DIR. Prentice made very thorough
examinations Of the children and
those parents whose children were
found to be free from physical de-
fects had cause to feel both CRATE
ful and happy.
A large number Of children were
found to have one or more minor
defects which prompt medical at
tention and proper care can easily
correct. In a few cases, where the
illness seemed of a more serious
nature, there is no doubt that the
early discovery of the condition, to-
gether with prompt treatment will
give the child a far better chance
Of recovery than it could otherwise
have had.
The parents were present during
the examination of their children and
were told very frankly what condi-
tons were found They were also
given a written summary and wher-
ever there was any condition requir-
ing medical care, they were advised
to take their child 10 their family
physician, taking with them the
written summary. In addition to the
examination DR.. Johnston instructed
the mothers about the diet and care
of their children. The Children 5
Bureau at Washington, d. c., viii
supplement this by sending each
mother a copy of their splendid
pamphlets on Infant Care and Child
Care.
We were able to have this very
splendid service of DR.. Prentice and
Dr. Johnston without any direct eX-
pense to the community, by the pro
visions of the Haskell-klaus Jaw,
this is a federal law pasaCl last
November. A cerain sum Of money
was appropriated by the natlonal
legislature TO be divided equally
among the states, for thi, purpose.
Another sum was appropriated to be
divided among the states according
their population. In orGer to cor
tinue to reap the benefits of this
appropriation, each state NIT; make
a state appropriation equalling the
latter in amount.
1t is every child's birthright to be
as healthy as present knowledge can
make him. 1t is a community pro-
blem as we'll as the individual par
ents. Are we will to do our share
in order that every child shall be
given their rightful opportunity?
If scales could be set before US and
we could see on one side of the
balance, the lives of little children
and on the other SIDE so many dol
lars, would there be any doubt as
to which side would be made 10
weigh the heavier?

OLD GAME COSTS VICTIM $1,7OC
He Let New Found Friends Count
Savings.

Oelweiu lowa,-That Barnum was
right in his famous declaration has
just been demonstrated in Oelwein.
Two smooth appearing individ-
uals dlif.ed into town and met
Peter WaIcnzie, an employee of the
Great Western shops ard told him
they were . fellow Poles, The
strangers were almost in tears
when they met Walenzie, because,
as ,hey told him, the.r good father
on dying had left a large amount
of money to be distributed among
worthy poor of his nationality.
They had searched the city over
and had found none up to this time.
There was, of course, a condi-
ton to be filled. All this condition
amounted to was that the fellow
countrymen should have saved
some real money himself, and these
strangers were to duplicate what
ever the saving might be. Walenzie
told them he had saved $1,70O in
hard cash.
While the strangers didn't doubt
the statement, at the same time
in order to make good in carrying
out their dear, good fathers dying
wish, they must see the cash-not
drafts or checks. Walenzie hurried
to his bank, withdrew his savings
amounting to exactly $1,700 and
put it in q grip and went out to
meet his new found friends. He
was able TO locate them at a con-
venient street. The strangers were
permitted to look at the money
in fact to count it to make sure OF
the amount. After counting it they
wrapped it up in a piece Of news
paper, took out an equal amount
Of money and wrapped it also in
newspaper, put both packages
back in his grip and handed it to
him. Walenzie was then told that
this was too much money to be
carrying around and for him to
take it back to the bank and de
post it again, and they would meet
him a little later at another corner
When Walenzie got to the bank
he, of course, found two nee bun,
dies of brown paper.
Walenzie is still looking for NJ
friends, but up to date nothing ha!
been heard from them.

LUTHER PREPS
LOSE To COLUMBIA
Hard Fought Game Here Saturday
Went to Columbia College by
Score of rs to Ii.
LUTHER'S PASSING GAME
WAS A REYELATIO
Props Lost Game on Bad GeneralShip
After Having il Sewed Up
Securely as Games
Can BE.

The Luther Props lost a hard
fought game to the Columbia Col
lege Props by score of Is 10 IA
on the local gi.dir5n last Saturday.
Prof. Fields Of CIesco who refereed
the game made the statement that
he had never officiated in any foot
ball game which was so full Of
thrills and important decisions as
this one.
Although il j. not pleasant to do
so it 5 hard to escape admitting
that the Luther Props lost their
game on bad generalship after hav-
ing sewed the game up about as sec
urley as games can be sewed. With
a two point lead the Luther Props
quarterback called for a pass in the
enemies territory. A kick would in
all likelihood have given the Column
bia boy the task Of carrying the
ball fifty yards in two minutes
against a team with whom they had
had but $50 and so" luck. As it was
the pass was intercepted for touch
down, the game ending almost i'm
mediately afterwards.
The Columbia boys probably suf-
fered somewhat from over-confidence
having beaten the Campion Props
who in turn beat the locals by a
score of 81 to 0. They made con-
sistent gains in only one departmet,
namely end runs, principally around
right end, where superior speed of
their back field told against the local
mines left end and half back. The
Luther preps had but little luck in
hitting the Columbia line but played
a splendid passing game, Brake
passing with the GOODNESS of a veter-
an to Bidne, Volding and Kjome. The
locals second touchdown came from
a series of nine or ten plays from
the Columbia Props forty yard line,
every play being complete or in
complete pass. Bidne made the final
trial on the fifteen yard line gaining
ten yards on the pass and running
cha refs sis---pl.s- rr1l- : --sa--.
Props passing game was nothing
short of revelation. Captain Oliver
Lee of the local team made the first
touchdown on q five yard plunge
after Bidne recovered a fumbled
punt near the goal line.

Trout Plentiful q Year Ago

A picture appeared in the pictor-

Of 400 speckled trout caught 20 miles
from DEBORAH by A. N. Vance, A.
w. Grow and the late J. J. Marsh.
The catch was made in 1895, twenty
seven years ago. The PICTURES Of
she three gentlemen mentioned also
appeared in the picture, and they
all looked as though they felt pretty
proud Of their catch.

The SPENCER commercial Climb


A copy Of the Spencer, Iowa, News

tains an article about big Com
mercial Club drive staged there last
week il which $50 members were
secured. We rote the names of r.
H. Miller and Roger Graham, form
er Decorahians were on the com
mittee which helped put the drive
over. Every member has his dues
paid up for the year 1923, and Spen-
Ger believes that state record if
not national record has been estab-
lished by the Spencer boosters. Two
comm tees, the west and east side
went out, the west side securing $40
members and the east side 240. The
former Decorahians were on the win
ming side too, we note.
