Northern MINI. Editors /
Had Wonderful Outing
Brainerd Citizens and Capt. Fawcett
of Breezy Point Lodge" Thanked
for Great Entertainment = =.
(By Hugh E., Wallace)


The Northern Minnesota Editorial
association held it's summer meeting
last week at Brainerd, and also at
Captain Billy" Fawcett's wonderful
summer resort, Breezy Point" on
the shores of Big Pelican Lake. The
old phrase, "a Good Time Was Had
by All" does not begin to tell the
story. Everything possible was done
to show the visiting scribes, supply
men and the ladies of the party a
wonderful time. The outcome was a
huge success. There was something
doing every minute. AS matter of
fact there were several something's
doing every minute so that if one did
not care to do one certain thing there
was always something else to turn to-.
Lack of space forbids one going
into detail on all of the various ac-
tivities followed out during the con-
vention, but we want to state right
here that those in charge of the
many features knew how to handle
the proposition and certainly did
handle it in most satisfactory man.

March and April"
Naturally 1 asked "why" and "how
come" and got the following in reply:
"By keeping off the cheaper types
of pavement with heavy loads during
that period when the frost is coming
out of the ground and the spring rains
are converting the soil into mush." i"
Then he went on:
every spring we do untold dam
age to our weaker types of pavements
by cutting them up, wearing holes in
them and badly cracking the more
rigid kinds because their support---old
mother earth---is soft and unstable.
"Why, do you know that last year
in Ohio we spent more money to re-
pair, resurface and reconstruct old

pavements than we did to build new
ones?"
1 said I did not. Then he gave me
some actual figures for 1921.
1--WE spent $2,284, 1874 just for re-
surfacing alone" he said, "to say
nothing of the millions we spent for
maintenance, repair and reconstruc-
ton. We had to resurface 81 miles of
one cheap type, "a miles of another
and 80 miles of a third. OF course the
higher types stand up. They cost lit
tie more in the beginning, but you
can use them every day in the year,
you don't have to resurface them ev-
cry couple of years and they last 25
or 80 years."
And then he said something that
has made me think a whole lot the
last two days. It was this:

THE BLUE HENS BROOD

Gan original poem, by George B
Hynson, read at the Sons of Delaware
meeting in Philadelphia, Monday, Feb
ruary 19, 1928, by the author.)
Oh, here's to the chicks of the Blue
Hens brood!
And here's to the land where the old
coop stOod!-
To the good, warm nest where the
chicks were hatched,
And the kindly soil where the whole
brood scratched;
To the cocks whose trumpets pro-
claimed the morn
While the cockerels Knocked with voice
forlorn;
To the widespread wings and the soft,
warm breast
That sheltered the chicks in the old
home nest,
And the mothering hen, with flashing
eye,
Defying the foes of earth and sky;
When the Sinking fox and the keen
eyed hawk
Fled trembling before her outraged
squawk-
Oh, all were sheltered and life was
good
For the homely little chicks of the
Blue Hens brood!
And here's to the health of the old
Blue Hen,
Who's mOthered her brood since the
Lord knows when!
She boasts not the grace of beautiful
bird,
But death to the foe when her wrath
is stirred!
This dauntless mother protects her
clan.
Can the Blue Hen fight? I'll say she
And the brood, aroused, will strike
again
When led to the charge by the Old
Blue Hen.
But the wide world calls and the
young birds roam,
Till the old voice sounds: Come
home! Come home!
Come home for the nest is snug and
warm;
Come home, where the weakest shall
know no harm
Where the bugs are many and the
worms are fat,
And the wheat is yellow-just think of
that!"
And the straying birds beyond the
gate
Who have FLOWN the coop''-the ex-
patriate-
They hear her squawk with a home
sick sigh,
And their tail feathers droop, but they
know not why.
They have wandered far where the
skies descend,
Lured on by the pot at the rainbOw's
end.
They are ruffled by bramble and scrat-
ched by thorn
And have found but husks where they
sought for corn.
But y cary and homeless and famish-
ed-then
'Cluck! Cluck! Come home!" calls the
Old Blue Hen.
50 here's to the chickens that, restless
roam!
THE best of the brood are still back
bome.)
And ole last draUght to the Old Blue
Hen,
The mother of chicks that the world
calls 'men!"

so FAR AS CAN BE learned the recent rise in the re-

than manipulation of the market If the people
will exercise the caution in buying both by

Company in it's weekly review last week, asserts that the
sugar market is being manipulated and is dominated by
speculation the rise in prices from to

quantities for each weeks consumption, needed.

ness and economy don't mean the
same thing. They buy one type Of
pavement because it is cheap or has
lower first cost. 1t wears out be-
fore the bonds are paid off. They
spend hundreds of dollars each year
to keep it in repair, more hundreds of
dollar every few years to resurface
it or surface-coat-it. That is the way
it goes on---a continued drain on the
purse. Whereas, if they had bought
that higher type of pavement that they
turned down simply because Of it's
higher first cost, they would have
saved hundreds of dollars in the end.
''The cheap road is the most expen-
sive in the long run. That goes for
pavements the same as it does for au-
tomobiles or a suit of clothes"
