STREET IMPROVED

The good roads day in Askov
last Tuesday proved to be quite
a success. About 80 men turned
out and pitched in with spades,
shovels, pick-axes and crowbars.
And about 10 teams were kept
busy hauling gravel from the S.
Chr. Dixen pit north of town.
The ladies turned out and
served a splendid dinner to the
workers at the town hall and
again in the afternoon they re-
freshed the hard working labor
ers with coffee.
It was a real jolly bunch that
worked in the gravel pit under
the supervision of T. N. Thorn
sen who was in the best OF
spirits and good natured through
out the afternoon. With T. N
around L. C. Petersen was only
straw boss. The eight men in
the pit loaded out 81 loads dur.
ing the afternoon. making ar
average Of a little better thar
IL loads to each man.
All the large rocks were re
moved from Main street and the
road bed leveled off before the
gravel was applied. However
another days work will be re-
quired to complete the job and
most likely a day will be set
aside for that in about two, OF
three weeks.
Apparently not all of the men
had hardened hands which were
accustomed to pick-axes. crow
bars. shovels and the like and
one business man was noticed
holding his fork with difficulty
at the dinner table.

get along and people would con.
tinue to live and be happy.
1t is because these things are
not fundamental that they can
be dispensed with.
1t is surprising how many
things you can do without if you
have to.
Our wants are many but our
needs are few.
And we spend all our time and
all our energy in an endeavor ia
give ourselves the things that we
want. 1t is the fashions and the
conventions that keep our noses
to the grindstone all the time.
To provide the things neces-
sary for the sustaining of life
would not be the problem that
it is were it not for the many
things that we consider neces.
sary which, in fact. are mere
non-essentials.
Heat, moisture, soil and seed
and you have the things essen
tial for the production Of life.
These are fundamental.
In the working out of the
eternal economy of things. none
of the elements named could he
left out and still have life.
But when we stop to think
how much can be dispensed with
of this thing that we cal
modern civilization" and still
have life in some Of it's best
forms left. must give us pause
Life's greatest lesson is this, tt
learn to distinguish between the
essential and the non-essentia
and to refuse to be bound b,
the things that are not essential
The nearer we live to funda
mentals, the more closely we oh
serve the laws of nature, tn.
more easy it is to do withou'
many Of the less essential things

COULD DO WITHOUT 'EM

Under the above caption
Editor Gunnar Bjornson of
the Minneota Mascot writes
a very good editorial about
things which we only ina
CINE are essential, but could
really be dispensed with
without interfering a parti-
Gle with our happiness. His
article follows:
Every middle aged person re.
members when there was no tele.
phone, no phonograph, no auto.
mobile, no rural free delivery, no
movies and none Of the thousand
and one other modern convenien-
ces that we now enjoy.
And still people were just as
happy in those days as they are
now.
The automobile has revolution
lied our mode of travel and to a
great extent, our mode of life
but it has caused us to travel to
the distant acquaintance and neg
lect the neighbor across the way
The telephone has made it pos.
sible to converse with people at
a great distance, but it has elimi-
mated the personal contact that
went with the business call, be-
fore we had the business Of call
ing up.
The movies have furnished
the people with amusement
cheap. but it has been, on the
whole, cheap amusement.
This is an age of progress
Every day sees some new labor
saving device.
But all these new things and al
these new inventions are mo-
making people better or happier
They add to the speed will
which we rush through life, bu'
they do not add to the worth o,
our character or change the fac
that there is no substitute fol
fundamentals.
All these inventions deal, aftel
all. with the external and ths
temporary. They are the serv
ants of man. They minister Il
the convenience, the comfort ane
the amusement of man.
They are essential to the com
fort of man-but they are not
necessary.
For untold ages, the world go1
along without the telephone, ths
| automobile, the wireless and thu
radio. Successful steam loeono
ton is only about a hundred
years old.
All these things could b
wiped out and the world woult

Who VIII Succeed Collins?

Dublin, August 2t.-Dublin began
| to recover somewhat today from the
shock caused by the dramatic death
Of Michael Collins, and plans went
forward for the meeting of the new
southern parliament on Saturday.
when the ministerial changes neces-
STATED by the sudden removal of Col
Inns and Arthur Griffith are expected
to be made.
Meanwhile, William T. Cosgrave is
acting as the head Of the provisional
free state government, and Richard
i@leahy as chief Of staff, is direct
ING the final phase of the national
arnly's campaign against the irregu-
lars.
The absorbing question OF who is to
succeed Collins is voiced on all sides

abe names Of Kelvin O'Higgins. min

testing the sincerity of the mediators
in suggesting the possibility of sep
arate settlements. 1t was announc-
ed, however, that any Individual set
tlement would have to be made in the
light of the understanding On senior
ity reached at the general session Of
the Association of Railway Execut-
ives.
At tht same time certain shop
crafts leaders were quoted as asser-
tine that the brotherhoods had not
been authorized to suggest any indi-
vidual settlements.
This proposal it was reported, was
made by L. E. Sheppard, head Of the
conductors, when the mediators APP
peared before the entire body of eX-
ecutiyes. As quoted by one rail eX-
tcutive, he asserted that if any sizea-
bic number of roads showed an inci-
nation to accept the final proposal of
the brotherhoods, the shop crafts
would drop their "all for one and
one for all" policy, which precluded
any but a nationwide agreement.
The failure Of a majority of the
roads to participate in negotiations
which the socalIed minority continued
late last night was ascribed to two
reasons:
One thtir refusal to recognize the
seniority demands of the strikers as
a basis for settlement.
Two-Their refusal to consider tax
ing back all of the strikers, a point
which President Harding's last propo-
sal contained, and which the strikers
have consistently demanded.
The minor group was understood to
be willing to take back all their old
men, providing it could be done with
out necessitating a withdrawal from
the stand on seniority in which they
concurred with the majority.
