agreeable. They do not have to exert
themselves or pull themselves up to
these desirable qualities Of mind and
heart.
The brute, the hend and the human
rat does not exist; theirs is a mis-
cradle lamentation of living. They
seek not harmony but discord. They
grunt with a gruffness out of tune
with goodness, and they have no sal
walton even among their kind. They
are the inventors of slang and they
find themselves so far out of tune to
decency and human happiness that
they set up new language only to
Be prostituted as the lamentations Of
their kind. They exalt in songs to
express their wailings, they deport in
the dance wreaking with the undula-
tons Of the lascivious degenerate to
multiply the anomaly Of their debased
situation.
A shrug, a gesture, outstretched or
a shake of the hand, smile, a pleas
ant look, nod of the head or po-
lite bow-these tell the world story
worth while. These bring to the hun
cry heart surcease of WEAKNESS and
sorrow, the nectar and honied joys
of gracious living, these stimulate,
soothe and reassure the gratitude Of
noble humanity.
Take away the greetings and the
polite howdy do from humanity and
this old world becomes lie, and a
frost. 1t is then fit only for the no.
bodies who represent nothing worth
while.

THE MILK OF HUMAN KIND
NESS: TO BE POLITE
By DIR. M. A. Majors

What object has one in view when
he says howdy do, or shows certain
forms Of politeness? A great many
people just pass along without any
kind of salutation. A kind hearted
man or woman always carry smiles
70 rthose whom they know, and often
for strangers whom they do not know.
Some kind Of assurance that you are
appreciated as somebody is worth a
good deal in this age of insincerity
and snobbery. A pleasant greeting
from friends is added JOY to our lives
filed with life's vicissitudes. We are
living, it seems, in an age Of indiffer-
.ence, and people are cold and stern
without any reason whatever.
Lifting ones hat to lady is a
token regarded as a method OF honor
able acknowledgement that she is a
person with beautiful as well as
noble qualities For lady to show
kindly acknowledgment to gentle
man denotes that he has some ster-
ling qualities. When no one bows to
any one, or is not bowed to by any
one they have reached degradation
almost without the pale of human re-
spectability.
Chicago is cursed with great host
Of this kind Of human trash. Where
no one speaks or has the inclination
to show that he or she has mellow
warmth in their hearts they have al
most quit being human, and have
gravitated to the low level of the
brute creation.
Always grinning and smiling, and
bowling the writer does not mean in
setting up the proposition of polite
ness. Refined and cultivated persons
do not have to emphasize it. It is a
part Of them because it has become
their second nature to be cordial and

NEGRO MIGRATION SLOWING
DOWN

The New York Journal of Com
merce expects large cotton crop dur
ing next season and looks forward to
the return Of many Negro tenants to
the farms and cotton fields, which
they abandoned two years ago. Many
of them, according to this authority,
went to the turpentine and saw mill
sections of the Southern states where
they commanded fair wage and were
able to secure work throughout the
year. Particularly is a banner crop
anticipated in Georgia, and the bor-
dering section of South Carolina. The
ravages of the boil weevil are held
responsible for the difficulties with
the cotton crop which resulted in Ne
groes leaving. The Southern Negro
is supposed to be very reluctant about
giving up altogether the culture of
cotton and is refusing to do SO when
the opportunity again, of cultivating
cotton, offers itself.
Those who have been apprehensive
about labor on the cotton farms be-
cause of the exodus have lost sight of
the fact that the cotton field is where
the majority Of Southern Negroes
were raised and it is an exceedingly
hard thing to make a man who has
been trained for generations in a par
ticular line give it up entirely because
Of adverse circumstances.
But now science is supposed to
have discovered a remedy against the
boil weevil and it is thought that its
culture viii again become profitable
to the tenants,-The Negro tenants
upon whom the South has depended
for its crop. The Jamestown, Pa.
Democrat, however, suggests that the
boil weevil is not the only reason
why the Negroes have left the farms
and why it would be difficult to get
them to 60 back in large numbers.
Of all the reasons given, according to
this journal. the real one is "the offer
of living wages made by labor agents
from the North" 1t continues that
there are greater opportunities in the
South for the Negro than there have

Get $62,674,OOO
YEARLY REPORT. SHOWS JOINT
STOCK BANKS HAVE GIVEN
MUCH HELP.

Nearly six per cent of all the money
advanced to the farmers of the United
States through the federal farm loan
system has been borrowed by Mime
sofa farmers. According to tabula
tin of these loans up to June 80, 1928,
compiled from reports made to the
federal farm loan board and made
public Monday, Minnesota farmers
have borrowed $62,674,200, out of a
grand total of Sl,160,695, SIG made
throughout the United States by the
joint stock land banks and federal
land banks. These loans are made on
a total of 11,057 farms.
During the year ending June 30,
1923, Minnesota farmers borrowed
S29,509,200 from the banks of the
farm loan system. Of this amount,
S21 ,433 800 was. borrowed through the
joint stock land banks, and $S,O75, 400
through the federal land bank at St.
Faul. The statistics just issued show
that, of the $62,674,200 advanced to
Minnesota farmers by the farm loan
system since its organization, $31,-
470,S00 was supplied by joint stock
land banks and $31 ,203,4 400 by the fed
eral land bank at st. Paul.
During the year closed on June 80,
1923, the total of loans made through
all the banks of the farm loan system
throughout the forty-eight states was
S446,389,813. Of this amount, joint
stock land banks supplied S233 ,920,-
598 and the federals S212,469,215.
The billion-dollar mark for the fed
eral farm loan system, which includes
both joint stock land banks and fed
eral land banks, was passed on June
30, 1923, when the statement of busi-
ness done from organization to that
date gave the total of loans made by
all the banks of the system as S1,160,-
695,516. Of this amount, the federal
land banks have made S757, 1922.

GOLF COURSE BEING PUT IN TIP.
TOP CONDITION. MUST BE
KEPT THAT WAY.

Friday night a meeting of all the
licensed caddies authorized to work on
the Redwood golf links was held. At
this meeting several rules were laid
before the caddies to govern their con-
duct while on the links. A book has
been placed on the bulletin board in
which each caddy is to sign his name
as ne arrives and golfers are to take
them in the order of arrival. They
have been given strict orders to turn
in all balls found on the course and
any caddy found loafing on the job or
guilty of unbecoming conduct while
at work is to be severely penalized
Each caddy must be registered and
have his license. There are now
nineteen caddies registered and sew
eral of these boys are available at any
time during the day,
Two mowers are being kept at work
on the links in order to keep the
course in the best possible condition
1t is urged that all the business men
in town whether golf enthusiasts OF
rot give their support to the goli
club. 1t is a decided asset to the
town and will be the means of bring
ing many people here at different
times. The Redwood Falls course is
one of the best in this part of the
state and it is up to the people of the
community to keep it that way.

ROBERT EARL WINNER OF 2:14
PACE AGAINST STAR s. IN
JURED IN RACE.

Robert Earl, trotting horse owned
by Hans Nuremberg of Redwood Falls
and winner of the 2:14 pace in the
American Legion Race Meet in spec
tacular run against Star S. was badly
injured in a race at Fargo. The ac-
cident happened at the first turn of
the third heat when Robert Earl was
crowded by the other horses on the
track and fell Mr.. Nuremberg, owner
of the horse, says that it is very
doubtful whether he will be able to
race him again this year. 1t had
been his intention to keep him on the
circuit until its close and it may be
possible to put him back on the track
late in the fall he states.
Robert Earl was entered in Fargo
aginst horses better than his class as
2:14 PAGER and stood chance for an
easy second, having taken that posi-
tion in the first two heats Of the
race.
