A. M. Welles has a mean way OF
saying things but quite the meanest
thing he has said to the weaker ca
SEX" for some time is to be found in
this little paragraph;
woman is often accused Of
talking back. That's an errone-
GUS idea. She don't talk back;
she just starts the conversation
and keeps it going.

There has been much discussion
about the laws protecting skunks
since Martin County arrested two o.
it's citizens for killing the little fur
bearer out Of season. Many "smarty'
things have been said pro and Con
but it remained for Heinie Mitchell OF
the Bemidji Pioneer to cap the climax
when he said that he had always sup
posed the skunk had scents enough to
protect itself. There should be some
thing done with Heinie:s bad habit
of mishandling the English language.

They have woman game war
den in the south end of Cass
county and on her first trip out
to catch a party Of hunters out
scouting for a deer, she captur-
ed two men travelling thru with
their guns in the car uncased.
1t cost the boys ten bucks each
and the case was tried before
woman justice. What do you
think Of that Hubbard County
Journal
Think? Why, naturally we think
Cass County has two mighty good
women.

There should not be a single piece
of mail carried by Uncle Sam these
days that is not somewhere decorated
with the tiny little Christmas Seal
While it is not yet Christmas it is
time for us all to show in this way
that we are taking our stand and
fighting our share of the fight against
the dread white plague and other
forms of disease. There is no more
valiant weapon raised in the cause Of
health than this CHEEKY little seal.
Let us all use them and use them gen.
erously.

Where cooperative marketing is
the farthest advanced, either in the
United States or abroad, there you
find agriculture in it's best estate; vi
olent fluctuations in the markets elm
mated; better prices to the producers
without an increase in cost and some
times with an actual decrease to the
consumer; an approach to standard
ization Of product; a more intelligent
effort to adjust production to proba-
BILE demand; a finer and more salts
flying community life.-Frank D.
Lowden.

what we need Just now to count
eract the get-rich-quick, get famous,
hectic jazz mania is a revival Of the
respectable and dignified
pursuit commonly called work. At
the same time there should be
movement organized to place all this
free advertising of soft-handed, over
paid movie stars, million dollar pug
lists, and other transitory, efferves-
cent heroes in the press somewhere
alongside Of DR.. Bunk's bullets for
boils, instead of spelling perfectly
good front pages with it."-Joe Rey-
nolds.
1t is possible that the present ses-
sion of Congress will consider a ma
tional Blue Law-that is a law that
will give to potential investors the
truth relative to stocks and bonds
which are being sold. If Congress
does this and does it so that the peo-
pie of American may be protected
from their own foolishness in invest
ing their money, the country as a
whole will be saved mere by being
rescued from the hands of the pro-
moters than through any single tax
saving scheme that could be devised.
But will the people have sense enough
to respond intelligently even should
Congress take such action? We be-
leive Minnesota has very good Blue
Sky laws of her own and yet it oc-
ours to the editor that we have heard
Of at least one or two bad invest
ments within the past decade.

A long time ago Congress appro-
priated money for the building of
new postoffice building at Montevideo.
Nothing was ever done about it ami
a lot Of people had forgotten that this
sum was available, or that it might
be possible to have it increased 50
that it would be sufficiently large to
erect federal building suitable to
the size and dignity Of Monte. But
the Womens Community Club got to
thinking on these things and now the
matter is getting thorough airing
and there are strong symptoms that
Monte will have the building Of it's
hearts desire. Good for the Com
munity Club! If massed woman pow
er can't bring such things to pass j.
is doubtful if they can be brought.
