It is particularly fitting that
the Norwegian Centennial should
have been held in Minnesota.
Take away the Norwegian and
other Scandinavian influences in
the development of the middle
northwest, and there would be
but little left. They formed the
main body of the great hardy
army of pioneers, that in the lat
ter half of the last century, made
homes for themselves in the then
frontier country of Minnesota
and Dakota territory. We of to-
day who move about swiftly and
easily in our autos, over paved or
fine graveled roads, viewing, in
many cases, rural landscapes of
enhancing beauty, are too likely
to forget how much we owe to
the modern vikings who pitted
their strength and will against
the billiards of the prairies, not
on plumber bent as the Vikings
of old, but to build a new land,
that we of today might be hap
pier and more prosperous
Farm, Stock and Home.

Signs Of Progress.

Often times we are too quick to
condemn the conditions as they
are today, thinking of the oft
repeated personal liberty" and
forgetting how conditions were
some years back. Men of mature
years will remember the old days.
Frank Day in his Fairmont Senti-
mel brings out that there are
signs of progress in the follow
ing: I'VE remember the time,
not so long ago, when hundreds
of men would come to Fairmont
on the Fourth of July and guzzle
booze till they were half crazy,
terrifying sweet wives with little
children to care for. Betcherllfe!
The world is getting better"
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1925-07-16

The new state traffic law which
went into effect July 1st and
which is likely not known to all
automobile drivers provides that
there is to be no parking on any
paved highway outside of the
cities, a thing which is well to
keep in mind. The speed limit in
congested city districts which
was formerly 10 miles an hour,
in residential districts Is miles an
hour and in country districts 25
miles an hour, has been changed
so that motorists are now per-
mitted to whisk their speed
ometer up to Is, 20 and 35 miles
an hour respectively. However,
don't forget that safety is still
first.

their interest to a high pitch and
if full information is not given in
the advertising then they feel a
sense of disappointment, and
may look elsewhere for the ar
ticle. Effective advertising is
simply a question of selecting a
newspaper with a good circula-
ton, and inserting therein an adj
vertisement plainly and clearly
giving the facts of your business
and the articles you have to sell,
frequently quoting prices. These
are the things that the people
want to know.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1925-07-16

That Minnesota has a healthy,
invigorating climate has been fur
Their proven by the fact that a
woman living at Balaton in the
western part of the state, who
recently died there, lived to be
107 years old. Her name was
Mrs. Louise Bickford Shequen
and she was born at Stanbridge,
Can, February 8, 1918.

If business men realized how
closely newspapers are scanned
by the readers in search for news
of the stores in their ads they
would take a deeper interest in
the question of preparing their
advertising. The person who is
planning to buy something, no
matter how large or small, is
looking for the best and most
convenient method of securing
the article he or she wants. Any
mention of the article arouses

City Health Officer Gives
Warning On Spring

That is the warning DR.. Herman
G. Morgan, city health officer, issued
today to golf, tennis and gardening
aspirants, who, after a winter spent
In sedentary occupations, tackle
summer sports with the same zeal
they expend on business problems.
Unless first summer exercises are
taken gradually, overstrain aad over
taxation frequently will result, ac-
cording to Dr. Morgan. Manifesta-
lions are general muscular soreness,
malaise or depression, and, If the
heart is Involved, lancelating or
Shooting" pains and shortness, of
breath, he said
The thoughtsis carried by victims
that the pains, will cease soon. This
often is the case, but in a number
of instances permanent damage to
the heart has resulted and many
months have elapsed before the mus
cles have regained their tone, Nor
gan stated.
The general muscular tone or
men of forty, or even thirty years,
does not respond with resiliency to
sudden overstrain as in their
younger years. DR.. Morgan as
serted
Exercise then should be carefully
guarded for those in middle life"
DR.. Morgan continued. Moderation
at first and then regularly graduated
exercise is the pass word to obtain
and keep in good physical trim"

ENVOY LIKELY

John w. Davis, defeated Demo-
cratic presidential candidate, Is
being considered by President Cool
idge for appointment to the Amer
lean delegation to the League of
Nations arms conference, 1t was
learned today.
1T is the Presidents present plan
to name Democrats on the delega-
)tion in order to give it q non
partisan flavor, and Davis has been
proposed as suitable choice. The
man whom Mr.. Coolidge defeated
last year is q former ambassador
to Great Britain and is fully
conversant with foreign affairs.
Other Democrats under considera-
ton were said tr include Col. Ed
ward M. House, Woodrow Wilson's
personal adviser, and Senators Rob
inson, of Arkansas: Underwood. OF
Alambama, and Glass, of Virginia.
For head of the delegation, the
White House is still inclined to ex-
Secretary OF State Hughes, or Elihu
Root, also q former Secretary Of
State.
Senator William E. Borah (Rs), oe
Idaho chairman Of the Foreign Re-
lations committee, is a. choice Of
the President who only last night
had Borah to the White House to
dinner when the approaching arms
meet was fully discussed BOrah,
however, may not care to accept
place. perferring to remain in the
Senate.
The United States may be repre-
scented by only American diplomatic
officials in Europe at the leagues
