terry Be Properly Kept Up

of Sank Centre Schools, Realizes
Necessity of Permanent Care

C. E. Bohall of Sank Centre recent
ly received very interesting COM
munication from o. l. Woodley, Win
ter Park, Fla, former superintend-
emit of Sank Centre High School, re-
lative to the up-keep Of the lots in
Greenwood cemetery.
During their residence here the
Woodleys made many friends in this
city who are still interested In them.
The epistle to Mr.. Bohall was written
on the letterhead of the Journal OF
the Florida Education Association :.
The slogan of this paper is that
"Florida Boys and Girls must have an
opportunity for an Education Equal
to the Bestn-typical of the progress
siveness of Mr.. Woodley.
The following letter to Mr.. Bohall
will be of interest to many Herald
April %, 1924
Mr.. C. E. Bohall,
Sank Centre, Mimi.
MY Dear Mr.. Bohall:
I am writing you concerning the
care of lots in Greenwood Cemetery
One of the treasure spots for Mrs !.
Woodley and myself is little lot in
the above named place. Mrs. Lamb
has been looking after this lot for
many years. She writes us that an
organization has been effected and
that you have been elected secretary
of it, looking to the right care Of the
entire cemetery. Will you please
write me, giving such details as
should know in order to do my part
in this fine work. :.
If there is any place in the world
that should be sacred and carefully
kept and guarded, it is the resting
place of those we love. l sincerely
hope that the citizens of your fine city
will unite to make Greenwood beau
tiful place.
I treasure the memories of Sank
Centre. Mrs. Woodley and feel that
the five years spent there were among
the happiest of our whole lives. In no
other city have we found such a fine
community spirit and so large per-
centage of people who could unite for
the general welfare. The appreciation
of the citizens of Sank Centre for
real merit is unusually keen and en-
couraging. The good seemed to pre-
vail there to an unusual degree.
I shall be pleased to hear from you
soon.
Yours sincerely,
o. I. Woodley.5a

All Should Know Game
Laws of North Star State
Open Season for Trout Began Last
Week-Game License Costs $500
Shoot All Crows

There are undoubtedly a large
number of the readers of The Her
aid who are not as well informed on
the state game and fish laws as they
should like to be. For the benefit of
these the main fish laws of the state
are given below.
The open season for hook and line
fishing begins on April Is for trout
and lasts till September 1. For black
bass the season is from June Is to
March /. On all other varieties the
season begins May 18th and lasts till
to use small game fish for bait, or to
fish within so feet of fish way and
to take minnows for bait from lakes
stocked with game fish within three
years.
The limit for black bass or walleyed
pike lis ten per day; crappies 20 per
day; sunfsh, pickerel, sand pike,
trout, salmon or bass (other than
black bass), 25 per day. Number OF
black bass or walleyed pike allowed
in possession, 20. Trout so fish or 20
pounds. The taking of more than rs
fish in one day of all varieties COM
bined is unlawful.
Any variety of fish may be taken
by angling or trolling with one line
and one bait. Artificial light is allow
ed in spearing rough fish in inland
waters March 20 to April 20. Spearing
pickerel is unlawful from March 1 to
May Is. The sale of fish is prohibited
in general with few exceptions.
The size of fish allowed to be taken
is as follows: Trout 7 inches; sand
pike 10 inches, buffalo fish Is inches
Muskellunge 80 inches; lake trout 16
inches, sunfish inches, walleyed
pike Ia inches; pickerel Is inches,
sturgeon Is pounds dressed; crappies
z inches.
The nonresident license for fishing
costs $500 and may be procured OF
the state game and fish commission
err, county auditors or game wardens.
The game and fish commissioner
calls attention to the need of destroy
ing crows.
The nesting season for game and
useful birds is now coming on and it
is at this time that the crow beats
through the fields seeking out their
nests and destroys their nests and
young.
The crow is increasing in numbers
in many parts of the country. He
hunts all the time but is most de-
structive when birds are nesting
Some species Of crows have been
known to wipe out whole colonies ~ot
game birds in some localities.
It would be well at this time that
sportsmen and others made it prac-
tice of shooting crows. If those who
know where crows congregate will
notify Deputy Warden Frank Hill, he
will take steps to do away with as
many as possible.

Silent Sleeping Cars Great
est Pullman Achievement
The Latest and Most Elaborate
Creations of Master Car Builders
Coming to Great Northern

st. Paul, Mimi, April 22- The
Pullman Company is providing an
innovation in the all steel sleeping
cars it is building for the ten new
Oriental Limited trains which the
Great Northern Railway will put into
it's transcontinental service between
Chicago and the Pacific Northwest
cities June 1. These sleepers will be
as near noiseless as, master car build
ers can make them.
In the first place the headboards of
the berths are permanent part of
these cars. This does away with the
slamming of this lumber in the eve
ming and morning when the average
porter makes so much noise with them
in taking down or putting up berths.
The upper berths themselves are so
constructed that they can be put
down or up without the usual rafting
of wire guards in the operation. The
heavy mapped carpet, extending the
length of the center of the cars, 81
lences the tread of passengers pass
ing through. 4
Small electric lights have been
placed on the floor along the aisle so
that the main lights in the cars can
be turned off at night while the
floor lights give illumination enough
to enable people to go through the
cars without stumbling over shoes and
other things that may be in the aisle.
The cars themselves are built so as
to eliminate nearly all vibration from
the trucks. They will we'll live up to
their name Of "silent sleepers," the
Pullman officials declare.
While they were not built with the
idea of furnishing cure for insom-
MIA, the Chief of the Medical Staff of
the Pullman Company declares that
people SO afflicted, who probably are
the most discriminating of all tfav-
elers, certainly cannot find anything
in connection with these new sleep
ers that viii contribute in any way
toward aggravating their case.

Tired Of Investigations that do not
investigate.
Tired of the Democratic kettle call
ing the Republicans pot black.
Tired of LaFollette and his gang OF
wreckers.
Tired Of politicians who make pro-
hibition speeches that read so well
that every wet rag in the country fea-
lures them on its front page.
Tired of windjammers who simply
trim for political effect.
Tired of insincerity, tired of lies
tired of the wind that bloweth from
out the national capitol from morning
until night and from night until
morning and yet bloweth no man
any good!
Fatigued unto exhaustion, that's
the state of the people as day after
day they listen to this Washington
windmill.
Personally, we are not particle
alarmed over the situation. We have
seen these things before. We have not
forgotten the i'll times that have come
upon the country in the past.
This thing that we are now suffer
ing from will pass away.
The economic and the industrial
constitution of this country is toe
strong to give in to this thing.
The patient will soon be better. In
fact, there is marked improvement al.
ready. AS we have said in these col
umns before, this country has manag.
ed to get along and prosper in spite
of all the politicians it has had to con.
tend with.
The trouble just now is that we
have taken into our body politics 9
certain poison and the effect of the
dose is breaking out in rash that
we are busy scratching.
This rash will pass away, as it has
passed away before.
If the members of Congress who
belong to the Windjammers Union
would only let up and not do like the
strikers who will not work them
selves and insist on preventing every.
body else from working, there woulc
not be much fault to be found with
Congress.
Just now the Windjammers insist
on not working themselves and, OF
course, nobody else can work as long
as they hold forth the way they do.
But even wind plays out and after
a while these fellows will have to sur
render to the quieting and levellline
processes of time, if to nothing else.
You can't sail anywhere in a calm
neither can you make Roadway in 9
hurricane.
Just now the trouble with Congress
is that more than one-half of the
crew is kept busy bailing out the sea
that the rest elbow" in.

have generally been very successful
in attracting women members. But
the same conditions which have him
dered the participation of women in
the work of government have natur-
ally affected their participation in the
active work of the trade unions.
At the fifth AlI-Russian Congress
Of Trade Unions in September, 1929,
note was taken of the growing parti-
cipation of women in trade union
work in the resolution Of the congress
on organization. This congress decid-
ed to carry on the work of organizing
women as part of the general work
of the unions, and appointed special
women organizers in unions and
trades in which there were a large
number of women workers.
According to the report of the All
Russian Congress of Trade Unions
for 1923, the number Of women mem
bers of trade unions has decreased
slightly, owing to the greater proper
.tion of unemployment among women
resulting from the concentration of
industry and the cutting of govern
ment STATS. On the other hand, the
proportion of women taking an active
part in trade union work has in
creased very considerably.
At the present time, women make
up 1866 per cent Of the trade union
membership; 21.5 per cent Of the
dispute committees; 32.5 per cent of
the labor protection committees; 1913
per cent of the educational commit
tees; 10 per cent of the mutual aid
fund commissions; and 1926 Of those
in attendance of delegate meetings.
These figures are high, compared
with the trade union statistics Of the
Western countries.
The proportion of active women
workers, whilst high in the lower
committees, particularly in those or
ganized by the factory committees,
is considerably smaller in the higher
and central departments of the trade
unions. In the factory committees

Women in the Soviet Union

in Soviet institutions. With this OBJ
ject in view, the Union Central Elk
ecutive Committee recently issued a
circular in which, after noting with
satisfaction the increase in the mum
Der of women elected during 1923
to government organs in the Ukraine,
Siberia, and other parts OF the Union,
and the more active part taken by
women in the work of these organs, it
urges the Central Executive Commit
tees of all the Republics in the Union
to instruct their district and provin-
cial executive committee to give
every possible opportunity to their
women members to carry out or to
participate in the practical work of
the Soviets.
The women of the East suffer pc
culiar disabilities, even in the Eastern
provinces of the Soviet Union. Since
1922, efforts have been made by the
Soviet authorities to improve the lot
of the Eastern women.
On March z, 1924, the Council Of
Peoples Commissaries of the R. s.
F.. S. r., in consultation with the
local authorities, issued a decree. This
decree, applicable to the Kirghis, Turk
estan, Bashkir Republics, makes it a
criminal offense to give or accept
payment (kalym) either in money or
kind for a bride, or to compel a
woman to marry against her will.
Similarly, decree has been issued
for the Oriat Autonomous Area, max
ing it criminal offense to steal q
woman for the purpose of marrying
her, or for parents or guardians to
force any woman to marry against her
will. Marriage with a women below
the age Of maturity, polygamy, and
payment Of kalym are also made Grim
inal offenses. On the annulment of a
marriage, wife is to have the right
to her own property, in addition to
a certain proportion of the proper
ty that may have been acquired
during the marriage.

Communist candidates.
Too bad, Mr.. Boudin, isn't it? Even
Sam Gompers did not like this change
Of ours. He went as far as charging
us with betraying the Farmer-Labor
movement. What do you say?
To us these changes indicate only
one thing. The Workers Party is con-
stantIy adjusting IT'S tactics to serve
its main strategic aims, which in this
case are: Fight LaFolIette and pro-
mote the movement for a Farmer-La-
Dor Party.
Now, Mr.. Boudin, just a few words
in conclusion. We find in your article
some very suggestive, one might say,
even Illuminating expressions. For
instance: In introducing the term
"menshevik" you say in parenthesis:
ito sborrow little color from the
Holy Land" Which strikes us as an
apology before the mensheviks and a
sneer at Soviet Russia. Are we right?

Workers Party.
This policy has been put into effect

ism which the Workers Party has
maintained all turnout it's campaign
for a Farmer-Labor Party.
They Changed!
Here we can see Boudin jumping
up again gleefully and triumphantly
shouting at the top of his voice:
well, don't 1 say they changed?
They betrayed me. They failed to
live up to my expectations. That's
ALL"
Yes, and we changed once more.
When we found out, after July 4th, that
the betrayal at Cleveland removed the
basis for a United Front working
class campaign in the presidential
elections, we entered the campaign as
the Workers Party and nominated

and the local trade union committees,
women constitute on an average 14.4
per cent Of the members varying
from 90 per cent in the sugar work
ers' to 36.T per cent in the Tailors'
union). The proportion of women in
provincial councils OF trade unions is
only 6 per cent varying from 26.4
per cent in the aforementioned
unions). In the presidiums of the
provincial councils, 81 per cent, and
in the central executive committees,
AZ per cent are women.
In 1922 only 3.5 per cent of the
elected members and 1914 per cent of
the paid officials of provincial trade
union councils were women. In 1923
these proportions increased to 81 per
cent, respectively.
The cooperative movement has car
ried on systematic propaganda among
women. Since 1921, at every delegate
proletarian women, lectures have
been formed for the systematic study
of the cooperative movement and Of
all questions concerning cooperation,
ans its significance in socialist recon
struction. Many women are attend
ing educational courses on co-opera-
ton.
This agitation has borne fruit. The
number of women who have joined
the cooperative societies is consid-
cradle. Women take part in the adj
ministrative and control commissions,
as well as in cooperative conferences.
In the local administrative depart
ments there are now more than 1900
women workers and peasants.
Turnout the provinces of the Union,
special womens' conferences are held
from time to time, at which the range
of subjects discussed varies from the
most hum-drum needs of the peasant
to foreign policy and conditions in
Germany. There are peasant journals,
edited and written by peasant women.
Many peasant women are well=known
as splendid organizers.
