ARBOR DAY.

= oVERNOR Preus in proclamation calls
I on all citizens of the state to observe Anr;l
n as Arbor and Bird day by planting
tree, some shrubbery and flowers
The governor says that the people of Min
nesota should heed the message of President
Harding requesting that teachers, officers of pub.
Tic instruction, commercial and other associations
and the press, unite in thought and effort for the
preservation OF the nations forests by holding
appropriate exercises during the week of April
~. Minnesota has observed Arbor Day since
1876 and most other states have similar HOLIDAYS.
This locality has long been famed for it's
trees but they are here through no virtue of ours
and there is an alarming tendency to DESTROY
rather than to replenish them
A clean and healthfu town is source of
pride to every citizen and a constant incentive
for progress. The celebration of Arbor Day
might very well be the turning point of any
towns attitude toward it's civic community duties
Another great value of Arbor Day is the in
terest it arouses in the trees already here for
there thousands of trees of natural origin
to every one planed by man.
If you can't plant tree this spring do the
next best thing; give the ones you have the best
of care.

Listen to this from Charlie Chaplin. "Wo-
men, to cultivate personality must associate with
men, There is real lack of personality among
American women Too much follow the leader
club life, and too little association with men,.
1t is indeed unfortunate for the mass and rabble
of US American women, that we have opportun-
ity to associate with men of "strong personality"
like Charles. Some of might become ac-
complished in pie throwing and kindred arts as
is he, if we only allowed to sit at his feet
and absorb his vast knowledge. Charles should
know much about American women-he has given
himself much opportunity to become thoroughly
acquainted. 1t is perhaps unfortunate for his
thorough understanding of them however, that
those with whom he has most closely associated
are as mentally lop-sided as himself.

Better Do it Now

to do,

get through"
don't know how the Lord came out, but he
seemed to get along
But felt kind O. sneaking like-knowed I'd done
God wrong
One day / needed the Lord, needed him myself
needed him right away
And he never answered me at all, but could
hear him say
Down in my accusin' heart-"Nigger, Use got
too much to do;
You get somebody else, or wait until ! get
through"
Now, when the Lord he have a job for me,
never tries to shirk,
drops what have on hand and does the good
Lords work;
And my affairs run along, or wait till get
through,
Nobody else can do the job that Gods marked
out for YOU

Senator Putnam of Blue Earth County
known to many residents of Redwood Falls, pu
it most awfully pat in argument in the stat
senate the other day. The bill under discussion
was straight socialist propaganda and it go
puts" good American goat. He closed the dis
cussion with this little eulogy of La Toilette o
which everyone who knows La Follette's war re
cord will most heartily approve.
"Just the other day." Senator Putnam said,
81 read in the paper that an American Legion
post in this state has invited Senator La Fol-
lette to make an address before it-Senator
La Toilette, who was branded as the arch
traitor to the United States in the World War
"a man who had to take his shirt tails in
his hand and hurry out of the auditorium
after his address in ST. Paula who
slandered the American soldiers, and when he
didn't dare to face the music ran from the
scene-a man who fired his cowardy shot
and ran.
LA Toilette stands for the destruction of
the constitution of the United States. He
stands for the soviet of Russia, that govern
ment which is killing priests, lining them up
against the wall and shooting them.
IF the younger generation in Minnesota
stands for that sort of thing, all / can say is,
God the state. / want to get off the
earth before that day. l want to see the
constitution living document"

Chicago March 22-Johnny O'Boyle,
nine years old, from between the white
sheets of hospital bed smiled at the world
today because human kindness obviated
the necessity of an operation that would
have deprived him of both lower limbs. A
hospital doctor had said that his legs, burn
ed by the explosion of a kerosene lamp,
would have to be amputated unless sympa-
thetic persons offered skin for grating
over the wounds. An appeal went out.
Two hundred men and women responded.
Eight men, five of them former service men,
were selected and the grating process
performed observation-disclosures Item.
Now, doesn't it just refresh your faith in tn
of folks? And doesn't it give you
zeal thrill away down inside?

The most valuable lesson that the pres
ent generation learn is that there is
honest way to get wealth except to work for
it. The eagerness to get something for moth
ing is the cause of most of the crime as it is
the cause of most of the unrest and dissatis-
faction of today. We never become a
happy people until We become busy peo-
ple.-Dawson Sentinel.
We wish to say Amen to that! We also be-
lieve it is necessary that young people, both
young men and women, should learn that it is
necessary for them to actually be of some value
to their employers before they expect the
salaries of skilled workmen. Clock watchers,
privilege-seekers and the fellow constantly asking
for rase" is the last fellow to get the increase.
Bosses not absolutely without sense-they
know when it is simple matter to fill the place
of who rates himself as invaluable, and
when mans place would really be hard to fill.
No one ever expects the world to go back to the
old apprenticeship days but the other extreme has
been overworked and the reaction is setting
accounts for many ''floaters" who are
in one town today and ION their way" tomorrow
Unrest is another name for laziness or for the
desire to get a wage out of all comparison with
the service rendered.

julius H. Barnes, president of the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States, showed that
he was a man of large vision when, in an address
at Washington he declared that wages ought
never to return to their pre-war level, because it
is an inherent right of the masses of the people
of a great nation to enjoy sufficient returns for
their efforts to enable them to obtain at least a
fair share of the good things the civilization of
the world is producing. Why, indeed, should
not laboring man travel to his work in his own
car? There is probably greater fallacy than
the assumption that large part of the people of
a nation must always be poor and put up with
hardships. That is doctrine of the Middle Ages.

A HOUSE OR HOME

THERE two words in the English langu-
age, which when thought of or spoken,
grip mems hearts as do no others, viz:
Mother and Home.
We know little lad who is what is known
MANS Boy" When everything goes right
he wants his dad, but when he is i'll anything
goes wrong he calls for his mother, and at these
times nobody but mother can fill the bill.
You will find this quite frequently to be the
case in real homes where there is both father
and mother love- but while are neither pes
simist ranter while believe that the
world in nearly all directions is making slow
but steady advance in the right direction, we are
nevertheless obsessed with the idea that while
there exists scarcity of houses in this country,
there is still greater and more urgent demand
for homes.
man may carve out fortune, he may be
a master of finance and bore with big auger,
but with all his wealth and all his brains, he
can not, unless assisted by woman, the right
kind of woman too, make home.
The Boy Scout organization is fine and we're
for it. but what this country needs right now is
a few-quite a few-more father and mother
scouts.
Show us one boy who goes to the devil from
real home and we will show you 10000 who hit
the wrong trail because of the lack of the right
kind of home surroundings, home atmosphere and
home teachings.
We organize chambers of commerce to builc
up our cities, to bring in new industry to make
our cities bigger when we count noses and strong
er when we count money, all of which is right
and fine and just as it should be, but of these
days we are going to realize more fully than W.
do today, that without homes, real honest, old
fashioned homes where love is the ruling power
no nation can prosper.

taught hatred toward some of their
countrymen who are of different race,
stock or creed? And do we not find
the virtues of a few great men of
otter nations extolled? But on the
whole, it is fact that We are not
trained in childhood to have the uni
versal mind. Prejudice is too often
taught. 1t is handed from genera
ton to generation. The world has
suddenly grown small, but it has not
as suddenly thrown off its provincial
ism.
There is so much knowledge in the
world that no individual can obtain
more than a few facts. The great
masses cannot hope to do more than
just touch the high spots. But with
great teachers to teach US we might
learn patience, tolerance and pity.
Education's problem is one of connect
ing the child mind with the construc-

We gasp in horror at the cruelties prac-

ers coming under their displeasure, but it is
no worse than we are having presented to us
in the Louisiana horror which is now before
the public, where two young men, one world
war veteran and the other his chum were
tortured in the most diaboical manner, by
parties whom it is morally certain were men,
bers of the Ku Klux Khan. This organization
has been one of terror from it's foundation
and is still keeping it up. The Louisiana
matter is one of the most fiendish that has
ever come to light, and it is to be hoped that
if the Louisiana authorities fail in the least
in doing their duty in this matter that the
federal government will take the matter up
and carry on until every last man who had
anything to do with the affair is placed where
he can do more harm.-W Window Citizen.

THOU ART THE MAN!

IF we are fallen on evil days,
If we have turned from knightly ways,

High hopes for good that all may share;
If in their stead-not here alone,
But wheresoer the sun hath shone
With rays of promise-we have seen
The trivial selfish, vain and mean
Exalted, pulled with pomp and power,
Strutting the stage at Fate's noon hour
Is thine the fault?
Art thou the man?
If thine the faith that faltereth,
If thine to draw one craven breath;
If, aught of loftier motive slain,
The selfish, trivial mean, or vain
Hath found harbor in thy breast;
If thou hast failed the just mans test
And stood all niggard of applause
When forward moved some mighty cause
Meath banners other than thine own;
Ii on the path thou tread'st alone
One path of millions, each for one
TO follow till the journeys done
Thou hast not Jared with heart of hope.
With all thy strength on every slope,
With generous thought, with hand alert
10 lift the falling, mend the hurt;
II thou hast bowed to sloth and ease.
And spurned the old austerities;

In love of man and fear of God,
Unhelping and disconsoate,

Coal Situation Menace
 To ReIationS-BarneS

WASHINGTON, August 26.-The coal situation, in it's present aspect, has become a challenge to a funda- mental principle of industrial rela tions, Julius H. Barnes, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, declared today in a statement dealing with the contro- versy in the anthracite industry.
 "We have never found" MT. Barnes said, any method of settlement of disputes to replace the one of physi- cal contest and violence except the method of judicial determination by reference to an impartial tribunal. The establishment of courts and trib- unals is the one distinctive feature which marks the difference between a civilized organiza ton of society and that of unorganized harbarism.
 Now, if it is true that in this dis pute there has been, on the part of the operators. an unreserved offer to submit the questions to impartial ar bitration, and if that offer has no conditions which tend to render it unfair or partial in any degree, and if that offer has been flatly refused. then we are. as I said, to the point of challenge to the principle. of which organized society preserves it's or derly existence. t4-f'a

 Unlimited Data Al Hand.
 Governor Pinchot now has al hand practically unlimited quantities of statistical data bearing on anthracite. It has been generally surmised that at some point in his representations he would undertake to show the parties to the pending controversy that they will both stand in danger of permanent injury from a suspension September l, since the consuming public. forced to use cheap substi- tutcs for anthracite, may never renew the demand for anthracite again to it's present strength.
 Miners union officials who will attend the session are thought to be coming with the strictest limitation placed upon their power to act.
 John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, will not be present, and Philip Murray, its vice president and Rinaldo Capellini, c. L Golden and Thomas Kennedy, the three anthracite district presidents, will arrive in Harrisburg only in time to enter the session. Think Call wilI stand.

 Properly certified orders recalling the suspension notices could not be got out in time, union officers said, to reach all the scattered mining camps before that date.
