They strolled in the twilight together,
The heavens were blossomed with

She cast her soft eyes upon him,
But he spoke no loving VOW
For he was rustic laddie
And she was Jersey cow.

Ivanhoe is having its own little oil boom ana
New Ulm, not to be outdone thinks it has a gallon
or two securely covered in that vicinity. what
Redwood County is looking for is milk well that
will spout millions of gallons of good milk, most
ly butter fat about twice each day, both morning
and evening. If the farmers of the County keep
on buying dairy cows we are going to nave H.
too and it will be better for this vicinity than any
oil boom ever pulled off anywhere because every
body will have a chance at it.

lately made against him by the people,
will not make the presentation speech to

statement that at is no disgrace to be brick

It has never been a disgrace to be a brick layer
even at two dollars per day-provided one laid

Alex Miller, who comes to Redwood Falls

Republican. Recently he wrote for his paper til
following editorial paragraph.
"The great Chicago Tribune writes a
nasty little editorial about the prohibition
vote, anent the wet vote at the election
and says the country does not like the
saddle of the prohibitionists. How does
the Tribune know? Let them try to
change the constitution. The brewers
aided in the defeat of Congressman Vol
stead the author of the law that bears his
name, but that doesn't spell anything.
The Saviour was crucifed but that did
not check Christianity. John Brown was
hung, but that did not revive friendship
for slavery. Prohibitionists riding on top
and the farmers Of the country and the
women and the dry men will see that
prohibition prohibits, after while. 1t
took time to stop counterfeiting, but no
body calls it a safe occupation do they?

WELCOME vANOALS IN
A SPECIAL ASSEMBLY
IDAHO TEAM CONGRATULATED
ON SUCCESSFUL SEASON
Speakers Laud Fighting Abilities OF
Men And Praise Their
Achievement

1.-THE headiest team in the Pacific
and Northwest conferences" is the
Characterization applied to the Van
dial team by Colonel E. R. Chrisman
speaking in assembly Monday morn
ing, less than t~wenty-four hours
after the team had returned from
their crusade to the golden California
shores.
Colonel Chr1sman continued by
congratulating the team on their ex-
periences and the sterling manner in
which they have stood the cutting
test of adversity-- a positive criter-
on of the team is valor and deserv-
ng to experience next year a season
crowned to the finish with victories.
He designated the manifest, unfailing
support of the state at large as a
distinguishing feature of the season.
"The Vanda1s are respected by
every football fan and sport writer
from Seattle on the north to Los
Angeles on the south, said Talbot
Jennings, who followed Colonel
Chrisman and summarized the sea-
son just closed. Idaho has exper-
fenced the most successful season IN
her gridiron annals according to
Jennings, and the team members
have brought respect and renown to
their alma mater.
That there is no reason for Idaho
-
in 1924 was the closing
made by Jennings.
DR.. Livingstone Potter, professor
history at the University of Cali
had been scheduled by the Y.
NJ. C.. A. to speak at the assembly,
but he failed to appear. Dean F. M.
Thomson presided.

Octopus Uses Ruse 10 d.
XIII Foe in oAouarium

. ~ u N-L. III 4..ffatfl u
Brighton, England.-An octopus and
a cormorant were kept together in a
huge glass tank at the local aquarium.
They became firm enemies and spent
most of their time fghting-the cor
moranI using his bill and the octopus
his tentacles.
Finally, the octopus, overcoming ire
mendous water pressure, pulled out the
plug from the bottom of the tank and
let out six feet Of the eight feet OF wa
ter In it. Then he let the plug slip
back into place.
Next morning the cormOrant
swooped down for his morning dip. The
usual battle began, and when things
became too hot the ctrmorant, also
as usual, made for the floating plat
form moored to the side OF the tank. 1t
was hanging six feet above the water
line; and before the bird could leave
the water it was dragged under and
killed.

PLAN BIRD PRESERVE
AT R0OSEvELT'S TOMB
Cousin Buys Tract and Presents
1t to Audubon Societies.

New York.-Eleven and q half acres
of wild land which surround the grave
of Theodore Roosevelt at Oyster Bay
Emlin Roosevelt, New York capitalist,
n presented to the National Associa-
hon Of Audubon societies for a wild
bird sanctuary and shrine for bird
lovers.
The gift has been accepted and
plans made for the expenditure of
thousands of dollars in carrying out
the donors ideas. This
ment WAS made in connection with the
associations convention at the Ameri-
can Museum of Natural History.
Mr.. Roosevelt, whose estate adioins
the late presidents home at Saga
more Hill, has turned over to the Au-
dubon societies "a veritable jungle, an
ideal home for wild fowl, and a fitting
memorial to Mr.. Roosevelt's love for
wild things" said Mr.. Pearson.
The tract surrounds the Roosevelt
tomb in Young's cemetery. A ten
room building nearby has been leased
for ten years and will be converted
into a bird museum and library for
students and pilgrims to Roosevelt's
grave.
Trees, shrubs and vines which bear
fruits birds like best to feed on will
be planted on the grounds, although
the existing Jungle will be pre-
served so far as possible. Bird-feed-
ing grounds, fountains, baths and shell
tiers will be installed in natural set
tings.
A catproof fence was built around
the property before it was decided to
the Audubon societies.
