THE DEVELOPMENT
OF GREAT TASTES.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE,

Great tastes have to be worked
They do not come without great
effort. In fact, they do not come at
all: they have to be pulled In.
The secret of culture is the will
ingness to make and remake tastes.
! The secret of being commonplace
is the helpless acceptance OF what
tastes we have as being inevitable
and final.
| Goethe was at first disturbed and
| confused by Switzerland only after
repeated visits did he get the majesty
and message of the mountains into
! his spirit
/ Most persons are disappointed by
| the first view of Niagara, or of the
| Ststine Madonna, or by the first hear
| ing of Wagner music. Those who
| turn away in disgust, and think the
/ judgment of mankind wrong, fail to
understand that these masterpieces
are not to be appreciated by those
who approved them naively; they
speak only to exalted moods
If YOU have no sense of joy and
awe before the paintings of the old
masters. in the presence Of great
-usic. great cathedrals, mouptains.
| Tod. go to work and cultivate the
.euse Otherwise you remain silly.
| oigoted poor trash" bourgeois and
! 4 sans-culotte in the city of minds.
ANDTlnCOle rncnlICHS concerted
painter by the name of Edwards, who
went with George Romney, the
famous English artist. into the Sistine
Chapel at Rome, where are the mar
velous works OF Mtchelangelo; turn
ing 10 Romney, he exclaimed, "Egad,
George, we're Bit"
There is one thing that all who
desire to possess great tastes should
keep in mind. 1t is that great tastes
are developed by familiarity with
great things.
In the realm of. taste the law is
rather strong that we become like
our environment The way TO love
the old masters in painting is per-
sistently to go and look at them.
The way to come into a real love of
classical music is constantly to hear
classical music.
And by the same token the way TO
love good and great men and women
is to be with them as much Is pos
sible.
The body is no less surely affected
by tho kind of food il takes than the
mind is affected by the kind of i'm
pressions it receives
If we wish to think great thoughts
and to rise to the level of that Choir
invisible" where life is nobler than
the level of the herd. the surest way
is to read great books and TO let the
thoughts of great men walk through
our minds and sit at the table OF our
attention.

TIME FOR ACTION

About one o'clock Sunday at
ternoon just as Mrs. Walter Fro
kjar went TO the north window in
their farm home, mile north of
Askov, to see IL the children
were coming in for dinner she
was met with reception that
will not easily be forgotten when
a rifle bullet passed through the
window pane and right past her
head.
Just at the same moment the
Frokiars received telegraph
message stating that their son,
Thage. had died at Faribault, so
no immediate attention was paid
20 the shooting. II was however
observed that il was two boys
about is years old, Judging from
a distance, one Of whom carried
a rifle and they were walking
northward
This was about as close 20 fatal
shooting as anyone would care to
get and II is high time that the
state Of Minnesota amends its
game laws so that rs year old
boys can not procure hunting IL
eenses, AT any rate il permitted
to hunt or carry guns they should
be with parent or other guardian.
Even at Is many are too child
like and silly to carry gunsr II
helps matters but little if after
laying low some human soul that
the killer cries and says, II did
nj mean il, il was an accident"
In the above mentioned case
the boys will be doing a manly
act IL they go TO the Frokjar
home and apologize for their ac-
tions.

Opinions of Others
GOVERNMENT PRICE FIXING
Editor Askov American;.

Editor Askov American:
The purpose Of the government
price fixing vs., cooperative mar
keting discussion was TO enlight-
en-, not condemn. hence the re-
mark. "a lot Of high sounding
words rambled off that the aver
age farmer doesn't understand"
is rather superfluous, unless a
fair command of the English
language be considered as a det-
riment to man.
However IL logic is based on
fact the manner Of expression is
Of minor importance. II il is not
based on fact one doesn't get
very far with il whether one uses
the phraseology employed in
writing a Harvard classic. or one
uses the poorest kind of English.
The Sapiro marketing plan UNI
questionably excels any Of the
various cooperative marketing
schemes tried in the past. Every
informed man knows that IL will
be given a good try-out which
indicates that il would be the
part Of folly to buck il.
But he also makes the remark:
Government price fixing has not

work Of our most conservative
economic writer's, Richardo,
Jevons, Montesqieu, even old
Adam Smith dreamt of the
emancipation Of the world from
the muItifarious ills of poverty.
by stabilizing the price on the
produce of labor. The statement
also rather broadly insinuates
that the people Of Minnesota who
gave Magnus Johnson-who IA
vors a minimum fixed price;
the largest vote ever given a can
didate in this state, We're off on
wild goose chase and got lost.
Government price fixing aside
from being an absolute guaranty
that we will receive a fair price
for what we produce. would gov
ern the price of land, an impor-
tant step in the right direction,
for while labor is the scourse of
wealth, land is the basis on which
il rests. Land should sell for no
more or be worth no less, than
the result of its productive
power based on a fair market can
support. In Iowa and along the
pacific coast this would perhaps
work a hardship on some. In
this community where land is
generally speaking too low COM
pared with it's producing power,
il would gradually rise in price,
which wouldn't hurt anyone that

However. the Sapiro plan is
now under full sail, which elimi-
mates price fixing for the time

Judging the future by the past
that could be the case, why not
organize along with labor? The
Farmer-Labor party in Minnesota
shows this can be done with
success. There are then three
years left in which TO teach the
people of other states to be as
reasonable as we are here in Min
nesota. Should the Sapiro plan
fail we then have an organiza-
ton to fall back on. Should it
succeed, which we hope it will, |
why. we have need Of such an

always well to prepare for emer-
gencies.
The statement in the editorial
column Of the Askov American,
that this is our own government
and if it fails we have ourselves
10 blames and should seek the
among ourselves. is not
only good policy, it's common
sense. Unless we are capable of
organizing to protect ourselves
politically, how can We expect to

In conclusion | would say, and
all informed men know the state
ment TO be true, the chief cause
Of our economic trouble lies in
the way the purchasing power of |
the dollar hobs up and down, ac-
cording TO how il is inflated or
deprecated by big capital.
Cooperative marketing cannot
remedy this fault. Sapiro him
self never touches the subject,
which proves that he at least
knows his business. But IL we
stabilize the price Of produce of
which the dollar is only a unit |
of value, We solve the |
