Christmas Poster

Redwood Falls residents are priv.
LEGGED to see most attractive and
meaningful Christmas picture which
has been placed on the billboard at
the corner of Mill and Fourth SITS.
It has come to be the custom for the
companies owning the billboards to
place a copy Of a Christmas picture
on prominent billboard in each city,
these remaining until the close of the
Christmas season. The one placed in
Redwood Falls is especially beauti-
friends at a Christmas party at the
Nativity and in its coloring. The
picture is worthy the attention and
careful study Of everyone. One Of
the townsmen of Redwood Falls has
suggested that it would be a splen-
did thing if this picture were proper
ly lighted so that it might be easily
seen at night. The coloring would
be especially beautiful under the
rays of strong electric light and if
this lighting were provided the pic
ture would merit an evening visit
from every citizen Of this commun
ity. 1t will well repay visit.

Park and Son Sell Herd

The Shorthorn herd belonging to
4. w. Park and Son changed owners
last week and is now very much at
home on the A. NJ. Dennistoun farri
in Paxton township. Mr.. Park and
his son, S. W. Park, have been most
successful breeders Of the beef type
of Shorthorn for the past several
years, but have decided to concentrate
on dairy cattle and, in order to make
room for the Holstein herd upon
which they are centering their III
terest, they determined to dispose Ct
the beef cattle. The herd bought by
Mr.. Dennistoun consists of twelve
head, mostly Scotch tops with few
straight Scotch, and the group is as
fine a bunch Of cattle as any Red
wood County farmer could desire.
For three successive years Park AMI
Son had the champion female ex-
hibited in the Shorthorn class at the
Redwood County Fair. This is not
Mr.. Dennistoun's first venture in
cattle Of this breed as he had a num-
Der Of fine specimens before making
last weeks purchase. The Park herd
of Holstein will be developed in the
future although it already includes
a number of very fine animals.

Deer Out of Park

Several weeks ago one of the deer
belonging to the Ramsey Park herd
escaped from the pasture and is still
running at large 1t has been seen
several times in the timber betwee,,
Redwood Falls and Morton and Sun
day it appeared in the streets of Red
wood Falls. A. J. Potter, Ramsey
Park superintendent, asks that peo-
pie refrain from chasing it or in any
way intimidating it. Mr.. Potter is
hopeful that it will return to the
confines of the Park and may again
be persuaded to enter the pasture.
Since the inroads made upon the
Park deer by the dogs which killed
a number of them this fall, it is cs-
senafal for the future growth of the
herd that this deer be recaptured and
replaaed with the othdAs. viii all
residents of this sectien~ who are in-
terested in Ramsey Park and its
many attractions help the superin-
tendent in his efforts to recapture
it? This help can be best given by
refraining from doing anything that
may tend drive the deer farther awav.
from the Park.

CHRIST'S MASS

n HE original form of Christ
mas, says an authority, was
"Christ'S mass" and no addi-
tional pOssessive was used when
writing of the eve of Christ's
mass, Christ's mass eve. The
possessive was gradually elided
and the word shortened TO
Christmas. and hence Christmas
Eve. A close parallel is criss-
cross pattern. which by the same
process is pattern of Christ's
crosses, the pOssessive being en-
tirely lost through the centu-

in Washington. 1t Is understood that
the Senate prefers the latter measure,
but inasmuch as this present bill car
ries no immediate appropriations IT
may be that the Senate will accept it.
| or at least will substitute it's own
! measure, leaving the matter Of gen.
eral public building construction out
side of the Capital to be worked out
in conference, to the end Of some
enactment this session.
The only objection seriously raised
in the House yesterday to the omnibus
public buildings bill was that it less
ened the power Of the legislature to
determine specific constructions. This
was countered by the statement that
it does not so lessen the legislative
power, inasmuch as provisions for par.
ticular buildings must be made from
advantage of the now proposed method
is to correlate building enterprises to
insure systematic series of construc-
tions according to the most urgent
needs.
That the Government is desper.
ately in need of more buildings in
this city is conceded. 1t is paying an
enormous sum annually in rents for
structures that are not suited to Gov
ernment uses and that impose a
heavy risk of loss. Government serv-
ice is handicapped by congestion in
these makeshift quarters, time is
wasted in communications, records
are exposed to destruction and admin
istrative efficiency is lessened. This
condition has prevailed for some
years. The Government has. in fact
been never quite fully equipped. Re.
Gently the situation has become un-
bearably. bad. BY use of temporary
structures erected during the war the
Government was housed at the time
of greatest need poorly and danger
ously. Even with the reduction OF
force that has followed the armistice
and the restoration of normal condi-
tions, the congestion continues in the
retained temporary structures and in
the still rented privately owned
buildings.
This problem will never be less diff.
ficult than it is now. Costs will never
be less, either sites or constructions
Delay is waste. Everybody recog.
nizes that fact, and that is why hope
prevails that this measure will as a
means of economy be enacted at the
present session.
