In his first message to Congress,
President Coolidge said: Another
reform which is urgent in our fiscal
system is abolition of right to issue
tax-exempt securities. The existing
system not only permits large
amount of the wealth of the nation
to escape its just burden, but acts
as a continual stimulant to mum
icipal extravaganza.

A man in the more southerly part
of the state dropped dead while beat

news at this season of the year.
However, it does not mean that
beating the carpet is fatal in all
cases as most of the housewives
would be dead ones. 1t evidently
only applies to man.

DIG INTO ROMAN RUINS
Archaeo!ogists Stirred by Discovery Of
Amphitheater i'm Bulgaria.

Philippopolis, Bulgaria. April 49,
Archaeologists are stirred by the dis
covery of what is evidently a Roman
amphitheater in the city square OF
Djumaia.
The workmen were digging founda-
tions for new structure. when four
meters below the surface. of the square
they came upon a flight of marble
stairs of massive construction and sur
face worn smooth by the tread of
many feet.
Officials summoned from the mu-
scum gave as their preliminary opin-
ion that these marble steps, a little
less than a meter wide. were the aisle
of an amphitheater. The archaeolo-
eists of the chronological museum at
Sofia will make further inquiries and
possibly continue the excavation.
This city contains some remarkable
historic structures dating back TO
Roman and pre-Roman times. Among
these memorials of the past is 4 city
wall. which runs over the brow. of one
of the seven hills on which. like Rome.
the >;ty, named for Philip OF Macedon,
is built.
The wall still stands for a great
part of its original length. Originally
it served as defense but now houses
have been built over it and the wall
itself runs through the heart of the
city.
1t is the belief of the archaeologists
that valuable finds, dating to the
Roman and pre-Roman periods. will
be found under the city when the ex-
cavations are made.

Proclamation!

In the year 1923 fifteen thousand
people in the United States lost their
lives by fire. The total property loss
was $500, 600, OO0, a>per capita loss
of $500. The loss of life and pro-
perty in 1928 is approximately equal
to the Toss by fire in 1922 With
careful attention to the subject of
fire prevention, there should be a
substantial reduction in this loss each
year. The per capita loss could, with
reasonable care, be cut to one tenth
of what it is today.
Fire insurance does not cover this
loss; it merely distributes the burden
of paying for the property destroyed
At time when timber is growing
scarcer and higher in price, we can
ill afford to permit this huge waste
of material. Therefore, l, j. A. O..
Preus, Governor of Minnesota, do
hereby designate the week of
OCTOBER 5th. TO 18th. AS
FIRE PREVENTION WEEK.
Let nae urge upon every citizen,
not only for the sake of himself and
his family, but for the sake of the
community, that he make every posi-
BILE effort to rid his premises of fire
hazards. Heating equipment, includ-
ing chimneys, should be made SAFE
Rubbish should be removed from
easements, closets, attics and outbuild-
ings. Especial care should be taken
to see that all schools, churches,

Want White Boxes

The rural carriers from the Red
wood Falls postoffice, in company
with the rural carriers in practically
all other sections of the United States,
are about to start campaign for
better looking mail routes. They
will request that the patrons obtain
the larger size boxes which are design
ed to accommodate even the larger
parcel post packages, and that these
boxes be painted white. This is a
very modest request and yet it means
much in the betterment of the service
and also in lettering the appearance
of the wayside mail boxes. The
larger boxes will protect the larger
packages from weather and other
damage, and the white paint will
make them easily seen and Clearly
in appearance. Of course it goes
without saying that these boxes should
have the owners names painted in
black so that they may be easily read,
and that the boxes shall be well
fastened to well set posts. For each
individual patron to grant this re-
quest will be matter of slight ex-
pense and of little work and the re-
wards for this all along the route
will be out of all proportion to either
cost or effort. 1t is hoped that the
residents of this section will take
kindly to this suggestion when it is
made by the carriers. The white
painting and plain marking will be
of especial benefit to the service when
a substitute is carrying the mail.

On Wednesday evening, September

colored quartet, gave very interest
ing and instructive program at the
Methodist Church of Redwood Falls.
This group of young ladies is sent
out from the Piney Woods vocational
school in Braxton, Mississippi, under
the guidance of Laurence Jones, the
principal and founder of the school.
Pihey Woods is the only vocational
high school in that section of the
country aside from the Booker T.
Washington school. In the short
talk which formed a part Of the pro-
gram, Mr.. Jones told how he had.
found the educational conditions in
the south in a most deplorable con-
dition when he arrived from ST. Louis
in 1910. He at once set about bet
tering this condition and his first
school was held in the open air under
a. huge cedar tree The school soon
grew and moved into cabin during
the winter. In a short time several
rough pine buildings were construct
ed and the school began to be re-
cognized as a permanent institution.
At present school is held in two
brick buildings and another building
is well under way. ALI the work
about the school is done by the stu
dents, many Of whom work half day
and attend classes the remainder Of
the time.
Mr.. Jones described a commence
ment exercise recently held. The
stage was set with various industrial
appliances and each graduate de-
monstrated his or her skill along the
many different lines in which the
students specialize. Weaving, cook
ing, sewing and other domestic arts
are taught the girls while the boys

Reports from nine other northwest
states reveal similar financial adjust

on a smaller scale. Banking, in other
words, is going back to normal after
