a score of 3O-15. Thts endeth the
first game.
Game Two. n
The next evening, Wednesday, the
BOYS journeyed to Dawson and there
conducted themselves SO very cred
itably that when they at last returned
to the old home town they brought
with them convincing proof that they
had won by a score Of 1922. The
cadets took the lead early in the game
and held on to it like Lee held on to
Richmond, but with better success.
The first quarter Donlan sunk two
counters and Castle added two more,
making Redwood's end of the 8-4
score with which the tenn ended. The
second period the purple and gold
crew was not so successful, as single
field goal and free, throw were their
entire reward for the efforts which
they put forth. Dawson, on the other
hand, crept up and dropped in enough
points to bring the count up to an
I'LL tie at the end of the half.
The local fellows played smooth
game all through, though they were
numbered by the fact that Hank Hof-
fert was unable to be with them. The
old passing game was working t,
perfection and a majority of the points
were made on shots Lindberg, OF
Dawson, was long shot artist, but
MS work was greatly hindered when
the guardsmen got on to his game
and watched him shoot, which made
him nervous. The Redwood quini
just managed to make enough points
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-01-14

to keep them in the lead during the
third quarter and the result was a
2O-19 score when the last round open
ed. A free throw by Scotty Donlan
and a field goal by Runt Lamberton
gave the guardsmen their final points
and when they finally called it day
the count stood 1922 in their favor.
There was a notable absence of long
faces on the ride home that night.
Game Three.
The last game of the trio was play
ed Thursday evening at Renviile. The
soldiers went through the Renville de-
tense with an ease that surprised even
Redwood and Scotty made well worn
path trotting up to the basket to sink
ield goals. Hank Topped in four
deuces and Runt left the floor with
four field goals and miscellaneous
collection of free throws to his credit.
Hutch Bobsin Melted two goals and
Polly Gaasch single long shot. Rem
vile was noticeably weakened by the
loss of some players. Evidently the
Renville line of defense had three
more holes than screen door for
when the timekeeper stopped the
argument, Redwood was cheering over
score of AHA and the Renville quint
was in wild burst of tears.
Guardsmen have a stiff schedule lin
ed up, according to Capt. Fraser.
Perhaps the most noticeable game on
The program is the struggle with the
American All Stars, an aggregation

directors, ETC. The two local State
banks, the State Bank of Redwood
Falls and the Farmers State Bank
held their annual meeting of stock
holders last week and the First Ma
tional Bank will hold similar meet
ing at its banking house tonight.
These three banks show good state
ments in their published reports which
appeared last week and the presidents
and other officers are hopeful and
optimistic concerning the 1925 bust
ness.
In both the State banks the same
board of directors was elected and in
all probability the same officers will
be elected. In the State Bank j. p.
Cooper continues as president and A.
M. Dennistoun holds place as presi-
dent of the Farmers State. Mr..
Cooper is assisted by his son R. A.
Cooper, L. N. Foreman, A. F. Has
senstab and others and the staff at
the Farmers State Bank includes
Fred R. Orth, j. d. Mclean and
Frank Orth. The First National
Bank is headed by H. A.. Baldwin
whose assistants are c. H.6Baldwin,
Fred lander and others. The Board
of Director for each Of these three
institutions is composed of local men
of financial soundness.
President Cooper of the State sees
many indications that business is
gradually coming back to its normal
status of before the war days. His
bank paid dividend to its stockhold-
ers and also made substantial ad-
dition to it's undivided profits. Mr..
Robt. Cooper the cashier of the State
Bank finds a very hopeful sign in the
fact that while deposits continue to
grow nicely they are the result OF
small savings by many people instead
of large savings by small group.
1t is significant that Fred r. Orth, d
cashier of the Farmers State Bank
made practically the same statement
and found it also a most suspicious
sign While the Farmers State is the
youngest of the three local institu-
tions, it shows good growth last
year and is at present in the best con-
dition it has been in since before the
war.
Mr.. Cooper reports that deposits
at the State Bank have increased
about a hundred thousand dollars u
year for each of the last two years,
and the fact that people have gotten
bach to the good old habit of saving
IS to him., the most significant sign
CT return of prosperity. At the
Farmers State it was said that bust
ness since January 1st had been sur
prisingly free from the usual January
drop, and this was held to be en-
coure ging-
President Baldwin of the First Ma
ticnal believes that return to pros
perity hinges to very large extent
upon getting farm lands to moving
again and, while he regrets that banks
have at present much real estate
among their holdings, he believes it
is just matter of time until all this
Minnesota land redeems itself and
pays good profit. He is not pro-
phesying any great speed on Prosper
ity's part in making her return to this
section but he is confident that she
will come. A further, statement will.
in all probability be made by Mr..
Baldwin following the annual meet
ing.

High Lights Of
Governors Message

The people of the state have
expressed their demand for a
reorganization of the state
government and the utmost
economy in it's administration.
Reducing the number of state
officials and employees, though
effecting a saving in salaries,
would be but a half measure.
Of greater Importance is piac-
ing somewhere the power to
limit those officials and en-
ployees in the spending OF
money.
l strongly urge the necessity
of holding the total of appro-
priations we'll below those OF
1928.
We should authorize no new
state activities and create no
new state institutions.
We should create no new
state obligations.
Many increases in local ievies
are made necessary by laws
passed by the legislature and
approved by the governor.
AS a generation, we are
wasteful; we are mortgaglng
the earnings of our children.
Most of us inherited assets.
Unless we mend our ways, our
children will inherit only liabili-
ties.
l do not believe it was the
intention Of the people to as
sumo an increased burden CT
taxation Tin voting the gasoline
taxi.
If this Interpretation is cor
rect, it obviously would be your
duty to reduce the motor vehicle
tax before imposing the new
tax on gasoline.
Public necessity should deter
mine the right to run either 4
railroad or a bus line.
The proposal to tax buses off
the road is arbitrary and UNI
wise. On the other hand, the
bus lines are notsat the pre-
sent time paying their share
of the taxes.
There should be a better CO.
ordination of the various agenci-
es that deal with conservation
problems.
Americas history is a story
of exploitation. The course OF
indiscriminate killing, reaping
and numbering almost has been
run. Tomorrow's task will be
to conserve what the exploiter
has left.
The quality of education is
not always to be measured by
its cost.
Our education system is ex-
pansive enough. Let US from
now on labor to make education
intensive.
am making no special plea
for any group. l am proceed
ing on the principle that what
is best for the people as, a whole
is best for every class Of ped
pie. ~
Experience of the; last few
years suggests less faith in
panaceas, more in the exercise
of the time tested virtues.

place where the assault occurred
soon afterward and the pieces of
paper which made it heavy and
solid were still in it.

with his hand on the door Of the
station, inside Of which there was
