fare so well as did the individual ex-
hibitors. taking only eighth place. This
was because it was impossible to OBJ
tain fresh vegetables or fruits in the
County at this time and the display
was lacking only IN this respect. 1t
was not learned from the report how
many c0unties had booths on display.
The NEXT issue of the Gazette will

Fred w. Johnson

RETURNED FROM MEDFTERRAN-
Fan TRIP. NEW ULM TRAVEL
ERS FIND MUCH TO ADMIRE
IN OWN STATE.

"See America First" was the ad-
vice Fred w. Johnson projected after
arriving in New Ulm upon his return
from a trip to European countries and
northern Africa.
The Atlantic and Mediterranean
countries of Europe and northern
Africa were visited by Mrs. Johnson's S
party consisting of Mrs. Johnson and
himself and Mr. and Mrs. H. L.
Beecher all of New Ulm, and
the tour was greatly enjoyed. Span
ish and Moorish architecture in Sc
vile, and Cadiz, Spain together with
other cities located in the Iberian
peninsula, were visited before cros-
sing over to Africa, where few days
were spent in number of cities on
Fred states he enjoyed the only good
piece Of beefsteak while in Europe or
Africa at little restaurant at Cadiz,
Spain. He would much rather put his
feet under the table at the Dakota
House than under any Of the famed
cafes in Paris, ONE, London or any
other metropolis across the Atlantic.
Milan, Italy, is progressive city,
and conducted along modern lines.
Looks like America, Fred says. But
the worst is yet to come, for those,
who rave about European architec-
ture. Mr.. johnson says there is noth-
ing he noted in Europe that "holds a
candle" to the capitol building in Min
nesota or the Tribune building in Chi
cago. st. Peters at Rome is not in
it. There you are, You flaming enthu-
siasts about the beautiful and magni-
ficent buildings that are said to be
around every corner in Europe. Mr..
Johnson says they are not there, but
they are in the good old United States
Of America.
According to Mr.. johnson, who by
the way has east his vision upon q
lot of the worlds scenery. Europe
must also take back seat in this
regard when compared with America.
He states that he saw nothing in

County Has Held
Two Successful
Health Clinics
CHRISTMAS SEALS PAY FOR
PHYSICIANS VISIT TO WABAS-
so AND WALNUT GROVE;
MANY CHILDREN BENEFITED.

The two health clinics held recently
in the county by the Minnesota Pub
lie Health Association assisted by the
County organization and local peo.
pie were very successful.
The county was fortunate to have
DIR. C. C. Chatterton, of st. Paul, an
eminent bone specialist, to examine
at the orthopedic clinic at Wabasso
Forty-five crippled children from all
over the county were brought in to
the clinic. Among this number were
some very urgent cases. Applications
for entrance into the State Hospital
for Crippled Children were filled out
and sent. Many boys and girls will
be greatly benefited by the clinic at
Wabasso. Mr.. B. NJ. Cosgrove of
the State Department Of Education
was also present and interviewed
several young people in regard to
the educational advantages the state
offers crippled boys and girls. Sew
eral applications were filed with his
department.
Miss Madsen, nurse from the State
Hospital for Crippled children acc6m-
panied the doctor and helped him with
the examination. Mrs. Chatterton
was also present and assisted Mrs.
T. E. Finn in making out the his
tories. Miss Elsie Howe of Wabasso,
DR.. Brey and other local people help
ed to make the clinic a success.
The clinic at Walnut Grove with
Mrs. A. w. Olson as chairman was
also a big success, over fifty-five
people being examined. DR.. N. s.
Dungay who is connected with the
Students Health Service of Carle-
ton College examined and his wife
explained literature, charts, and ex-
hibits, and told health stories to the
children. Mrs. Earl Jameson assisted
the doctor with the examinations and
a bunch Of loyal Walnut Grove folk
took histories and assisted in many
ways.
Both of these clinics were financ-
ed by the sale of Christmas Seals in
this county.

often hog the road with his own car
in order to annoy passing vehicles
and after they pass him reveal his
identity.
"The sooner the justice of the
peace court, as far as the motor We
hicle is concerned, is abolished by a
court having greater jurisdiction and
requiring higher qualifications of the
incumbents, the better will be our law
enforcement and the peace of the
community. Today under the fee sys-
tenn the man trying the case has a
direct financial interest. If there is
a conviction he gets a fee. Such a
system is designed to encourage
graft. Sheriffs, constables and their
deputies should be paid a regular
salary. 1t would be still better if they
were everywhere replaced by a state
road patrol whose jurisdiction would
be cooperative with that of the
state"

Then the wise little person went
on: Shall | tell you secret? Do
you want a safe and sure recipe for
keeping some of the germs away
from you?" He gave a chuckle. "Use
plenty of soap and water on your
two hands"
Very seriously he went on: "Your
hands often come in contact with
disease producing germs. Eating with
soiled hands and thus communicating
Your food, is one way of getting dis
ease germs into your mouth and thru
your body. Diseases of the throat,
nose and lungs, as well as bowel dis
eases, may be contracted in this way.
To safeguard yourself, ALWAYS
WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE
EATING.
Better remember that" he said.

tomato electric traffic posts now
