ing that the "pay-as-you-go" plan
seemed to them best for the state at
this time and that rush work and
bigger expenditures on the system
would result in high construction
prices in all other lines and bring the
cost of farm labor to a prohibitive
point throughout the state.
Until 1920 county and township Of
ficials had complete charge of Mime
sofa roads. A state highway depart
ment was formed in 1905 as a purely
advisory body and general tax levy
of one-twentieth of a mill was voted
for state aid in maintaining county
roads. The tax rate was increased as
traffic became heavier until it is now
mill, yielding $2,00O,OOO year.
Commissioner Babcock was a mem
Der of the original commission. From
the beginning he urged a better sys-
tenn of roads to aid the farmer and
predicted the rapid development OF
the automobile and it's subsequent
need of through highways and perm
anent improvements.
Unlike many other states, the road
plan taxes motor vehicles on factory
prices instead of weight and horse
power. The present license is ISSUED
on the basis of 2 per cent of the fac
tory list price of the car. A discoun,
of 25 per cent is made on cars more
than three years old and of SO pei
cent on cars over five years old. The
tax minimum for passenger cars il
set at $12 a year and on trucks al

Use Of Live De-
: cOys Forbidden.

Attention OF sportsmen is called to
a change in the 1923 game and fish
laws of the state, whereby the use of
1--we decoys in the taking of water
fowl is prohibited The provision
formerly read that artificial or live
decoys may be used" but the 1923
legislature amended this sentence SO
as to read, artificial decoys NAV be
used, thus clearly evincing an in
tention on its part to forbid the use
of live decoys in hunting.
This change in the game laws is
SAID TO have been necessitated by ex
cessive slaughter of waterfowl in
lake portions of the state. 1t is con-
tended that this new change in the
law will be an added hardship to the
sportsmen in the lake districts, for
many OF the former good shooting
points, the marshes and sloughs, have
disappeared and the lakes alone pro-
vide an opportunity to obtain a few
hours OF sport and mess of mallard
or teal. 1t is no longer a case of
shooting but of real hunting, and even
with the use of live decoys the bag
limits had been greatly cut within
the last few years.
Many sportsmen formerly kept a
few live mallard for use as decoys,
but it will now be case of putting
up his few wooden birds against the
hundreds owned by the hunting clubs
of the larger cities, with the result
that the club members will carry off
the birds. Three thousand wooden
decoys. it is said, have been accumu-
lated by one hunting club at Heron
Lake alone.-Pipestone County Star.

Beware of These Young
Ladies if They Call.
Are Working An Old But Clever
tame on Merchants in Different
Parts of Minnesota.

Look out for Film Flam Girls
is the message sounded to Jackso,
banks and merchants in reports re-
celved here from the Minnesota
bankers association. Two clever
girls are circulating about the coun-
try working their short change game.
Inc two girls are travelling by
auto bus from town to town work
ing mercantile establishments with
what is known in police circles as
the "short change" game.
The manner in which the Young wo-
men have successfully accomplished
their work is old but the girls them
selves are exceedingly shrewd. They
make purchase, tender in payment
a bill of large denomination. While
change is being made they ask to
have the bill returned as they have a
smaller one. In the final adjustment
the clerk is confused and usually finds
that shortage of $40 has occurred
The bankers association advises the
local merchants to be on the lookout
Today none of the local stores
were aware of any of the operations
of such pair but having been put
on their guard will warn the police
when the slightest suspicion of such
operations arise.
The girls are described as fol
lows: One about five feet eight in
ches; medium light straight bob
bed hair; wore blue serge suit, gray
stockings and black slippers; age
about twenty-six years. The other
about five feet nine inches; medium
stout; wore Paisley blouse, tar
shade, pleated skirt, gray hat and
gray stockings and slippers; age
about thirty-fve years. Both ap,
peared to have been quite well edu-
Gated and were smooth takers; pick
ing out mostly lady clerks or young
boy clerks to wait on them.-Jackscn

Minnesota Highways
Beat All Records

One mans energy, forehandedness
and good roads craftsmanship is credit
ed with the completion in two years
time of a traversable state highway
system in Minnesota totaling exactly
1000 miles.
The man is Charles M. Babcock,
state highway commissioner and or
iginator of the roads plan which in
this surprisingly short length OF time
brought the state from the rear to one
of the foremost ranks in highway de-
velopment, and from mud trails to
smooth gravel roads, each of which
carry an average of TO vehicles day
in both tourist and local traffic.
Since the constructive state plan
was adopted at the 1920 election the
highway department thus created has
completed 5000 miles of grading,
gravel surfacing, and concrete paving,
reshaped 1000 miles, and resurfaced
more than 800 miles on the system,
according to the commissioner re-
port made today.
1t has recruited 1000 patrolmen
whose sole duty is to drag and keep
smooth each average 5 mile section
ON the SCdL6 Wins Oi0
crews to care for longer sections and
help the patrolmen to improve the bad
spots along their beats. And it has
worked out system of numerical
marking, direction, and caution signs
which make its possible to travel al
most anywhere in the state with re-
ference to a state highway map only
and to drive at night in comparative
safety.
All of this work has been done on
trunk highway fund revenue Of
not more than s1O,0OO,000 year and
without the issuing of state bonds to
cover the huge improvement. Despite
the sweeping campaign for better
roads and favorable highway senti-
ment that reaches into the most re-
mote communities, the department.

posed bond issue of $20,000,000. Leg

Magnus Magniies.

The newly elected senator from
Minnesota, Magnus Johnson, dons the
robes Of prophet of gloom. He sees
revolution if conditions are not chang
ed. Magnus finds that "65 per cent
of the wealth of the country is in the
hands of 2 per cent of the population"
and unless there is a better distribu-
ton of this wealth the common peo-
pie are going to revolt against it."
What is wealth, Magnus? Is it in
homes, where people have more fun
than elsewhere In this country H.
100000 families hold deeds to their
houses. Is it in motor cars, joyous
chariots of the modern Rome. Eleven
million families own their own auto
mobiles and 100000 more are saw
ing up to buy gas buggy. Is it in
savings bank accounts ? Thirteen
million families have these and their
footings run to nearly $4,000, OOO, 900.
In Magnus's own state three fami-
lies own their own homes to every
two families that rent. Are these
house owners, these motor car owners,
these savings bank depositors going
to join in revolution whose object
is the distribution of wealth? Is. Far
mer Magnus Johnson, owner of one
OF the largest and finest Gothic barns
In Minnesota, going to make war in
order that this barn be distributed
among those who haven't barns?
Two per cent of the population is
not eating IS per cent of the green
corn and cherry pie these days. 1t is
not catching IS per cent of the bass
or swimming IS per cent of the swims.
1t is not seeing IS per cent of the
motion pictures or dancing IS per cent
OF the Jazz steps. If we should hazard
plunge into percentages we should
say that SO per cent of the people. in
Guiding Magnus, have 100 per cent of
the joy-and therefore the wealth.

Aid of Bankers Asked,

The Minnesota Bankers Associa-
ton working with the Minnesota Live
Stock Commissioner are asking the
cooperation and also the financial aid
of the Bankers of Minnesota in stamp
ing out tuberculosis in cattle and
hogs through out the state.
Activities on 'the part of the Mar
ket Interests in cooperation with the
State Sanitary Board and the Federal
Dept. this past year resulted in the
passage of a law authorizing the
county boards to appropriate money
to assist in the expense of testing all
the cattle of a county upon petition of
a majority of the cattle owners.
This law puts the proposition up
to the cattle owners and now all that
is needed is county organization, edu-
cation and getting the signatures OH
petitions to make Minnesota the first
state in the union to be- certified as
Stree from tuberculosis"

He Was Ready.
Nautilus.


Il will study and get ready" said
Abraham Lincoln to those who taunt-
ed him and jeered at his passion for
books, and some day my chance will
come"
And when Lincoln's hour was ready
for him, he was ready for it.
Like an echo to Lincoln's thought
we have the immortal words of En-
erson also:
Before you can give out you must
take in.'
These are the men who have dis
covered for themselves great, univ
ersal Truth, and have applied it to
their own lives. And they are the
men whose names shine like beacons
OF inspiration down through the pages
of human history.
Before any good thing can come
into our lives, our lives must be made
ready to receive it. And before we
can give to the world from the reser-
voirs of our minds and hearts, we
must fill our minds and hearts with
something worthwhile to give. No
man makes his chances; but he does
develop them.

LARAMIE DEFEATS LOCALS
IN CLOSE BALL GAME HERE

Last Sunday afternoon at the fair
grounds the local U. p. ball team
went down in defeat before the Lar

up a hard fight but Sunday was not

boys from the University city walked
off the grounds winners by II lone
tally. The score-9 to 10.
Rawlins' victory over the fast
Green River aggregation the Sunday
previous evidently imbued the local
fans with hopes for a repeater last
Sunday afternoon but fate decreed
otherwise.
Both the visitors and the locals
used two pitchers during last Sun

ORGAN RECITAL JULY 10 To INTRO.
DUCE PIPE ORGAN TO PATRONS
OF STRAND THEATRE

On Tuesday. July 10th, local the
atre goers will have the opportunity
OF hearing. for the first time, the
new $4,000 pipe organ now being
installed at the Strand Theatre. The
new organ is said to be the largest
in the state and is one of the most
marvellous musical instruments ever
constructed.
A seven piece orchestra will be
duplicated by the pipe organ now
being installed - drums, flutes,
violins and a number of other instru-
ments-every musical instrument, in
fact, which is commonly found in a
high class orchestra of this size.
Mr.. w. f. Walsh of Denver, has
been employed by johnson and
Bangs as the Organist and the fact
that he comes highly recommended
by the makers OF the organ is ample
assurance that those who attend the
Strand will hear the great organ at
its best.

attractions are being arranged by
the management of The Strand for
Tuesday. July 10th, and it Is ex-
pected that the theatre will be taxed
to capacity by lovers of high class
pipe organ music.
