Shoes and Cars.

One of the latest accusations against
the automobile comes from the shoe
trade. Makers of shoes say that the
proportional decline in the shoe busi-
ness since the war is due largely to
the increased use of the automobile.
Especially noticeable is this decline
in the rural districts. where the peo-
pie formerly walked short distances
rather than hitch up the team. Now
a car ready at the door takes them
to the village or the city. Then, too,
the farmer often walked beside his
horses when big loads were hauled.
The man or woman who did not have
work shoes and also Sunday"
shoes was scarce. Now the farmer
finds that one pair at a time does him

OUR AMAZING BUSINESS AZ
COMPLISHMENTS

1t is not much wonder that employ
ers and representative of wage earn
ers have been coming to the United
States from time to time to seek the
secret of American wealth and pros
perity. Americans may well wonder
about their own accomplishments.
In many communities, our agricul-
ture is far from robust, yet despite
this fact there has been a consistent
breaking of business and transporta-
ton records throughout the year. The
railroads have had an unprecedented
carrying business. This is indicated
in the fact that though there never
had been week up to 1928 when the
roads required as many as 100000
cars for actual transport purposes,
there were % weeks in the first 10
months of the present calendar year
when more than million cars were
loaded. The week ending October 80
set a new high mark with 1,216, 432
cars.
Increased business has related to
coal, ore, miscellaneous freight, mer-
chandise, grain and grain products
in sum, virtually all kinds of traffic
except livestock and forest products.
The Federal Reserve board reports
that industrial activity has been
greater in volume in every month of
this year than for 1925, and that there
has been a steady distribution of this
production to distribution of this pro-
production to consumers, and at such
a pace that stocks at the end Of Sep
TENDER were generally lower than
those of year ago. A prime reason
for this unbroken flow to ultimate
destinations was the purchasing pow
er of industrial workers and the more
fortunately postured farmers.
Coincident with this buying of COM
modities, deposits in the $4,000 banks
Of the country have increased about
$1,000, 100000 to approximately the
$4,000, 100000, according to one au-
thority. An enormous aggregate
amount in Christmas fund savings
will be released for holiday buying,
which may also set new high re-
cord.
1t seems scarcely possible that this
huge volume of industrial activity,
purchasing power and trade can go on
indefinitely; at least there is posi-

EFFECTIVE PUNISHMENT

Two men were driving from here
to Redwood Falls last Saturday morn
ing about nine o'clock. A car ap-
preached them, struck their machine
slightly, went on it's way. Though
a combination of the blow and loose
gravel, the men landed in the ditch
stunned. When they came to, few
moments later, they were alone with
their overturned car. They were cut
bruised, had to remain in bed for two
or three days. They thanked their
lucky stars that they had no bones
broken, that they were still living
They knew not whom to blame.
Somewhere there is another driver
who struck someone else's car, did not
stop to see if he had caused any dam
age, did not even look back. If he
had wouldn't he have seen the other
car turned over? If he had seen an
other car go into the ditch, even
through no fault of his own, should
not he have stopped to ascertain ii
anyone had been injured, if he could
give any assistance Especially in
broad daylight?
The hit and run driver becomes
a greater menace daily. A combina-
ton of road hog, drunken, careless,
and reckless driver, he leaves injur-
ed and dead along streets and high
ways. Just how much longer are
we going to tolerate the hit and run
drivers? Just what are We going to
do to stop this manning and killing

LoUden To Address Farm
Bureau Meeting At Chicago

Frank o. Lowden, former governor
of Illinois and nationally recognized
as student of American agriculture,
will address the 9Th annual meeting
of the American Farm Bureau fed
Grafton at Chicago, on Wednesday,
December 9Th.
In announcing that Mr. Lowden
would address the convention, Presi-
dent Thompson of the American
Farm Bureau said:
The annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau federation is one
great occasion of national scope when
the agricultural problems of the ma
ton are given consideration by rep
resentative agricultural leaders of the
country.
ave are arranging to provide our
ing prominence-men and women, who
will bring into the meeting the broad
est possible viewpoint. In building
our program we are not combining it
to a presentation from any one school
of thought, but, rather, we shall seek
to present to our convention the ideas
of well diversified groups"
1t is the confident expectation of
the leaders of the Farm Bureau that
this annual meeting which will be
held at Hotel Sherman, Chicago, Dec.
6, and 8, will be the most outstand-
ing demonstration that American far
mers have ever participated in. In a
letter to the state declarations, Presi-
dent Thompson states:
''The voice and counsel of every
Farm Bureau official and of every
community Farm Bureau leader, ev-
cry vocational agricultural teacher,
every home demonstration agent, ev-
cry home and community worker, is
needed at this convention. Every
one is needed that, with wisdom and
with balanced judgment, a policy will
be adopted which will assure an equal
ity of opportunity that agriculture so
sorely needs"
The first annual agricultural ex-
position is a new feature of the Farm
Bureau convention this year. This
exposition will afford the delegates to
the convention an opportunity of see
ing exhibits put on by outstanding CO.
operative marketing associations; ex-
hibits reflect the work of the Farm
Bureau, county, state and national,
home and community and educational
work

TRUTH" IN ADVERTISING

Hygeia, the excellent health maya
zine published by the American Medi-
cal association, makes a revelation.
Hygeia reveals that advertisers may
write their own testimonials and have
them signed, for cash consideration
by any one of long list of actors and
actresses.
How much of a revelation is this :?
We suspect that the only new piece
of information with which Hygeia
supplies it's readers is the fact that
some of the actors and actresses have
flat rate of $275 per testimonial,
that others charge $3.50, and that still
others sink to the contemplate level
of 5000.
Aside from this news as to the
amounts Of cash paid, what is new in
the revelation? Advertisers who buy
such testimonials are practicing what
appears to be a deception; but in
truth there is no deception. The pre-
tense is too thin. 1t has been too thin
for many years.
4hC1C 10 IlO pIdCClCdl Jill Uc-
tween the sale of name to be sign
ed to a testimonial for a candy bar,
and the sale of a name to be used as
the name of candy bar. In either
case, the name is virtually used as
testimonial. And in either case, no.
body is deceived.
People would not believe in the ex-
pressed or implied testimonial even
if the evidence as to Mr.. Red Grange
were lacking. Mr.. Red Grange, it
will be recalled, was put on the auc-
ton block as soon as he turned pro-
fessional. Mr.. Pyle sent out word
to the entire world that the line
formed at the left. In one day Mr..
Oranges noted name was sold to a
sweater, hat, a cap, handkerchief,
chocolate bar, garter, a tooth
paste, a shaving cream, a haired
dener, a shoelace, a corn-cutter, a
steam locomotive, and brand of can
ned. sauerkraut. The list may err in
certain respects, but on the whole it
is about right.
Who is deceived by the sold names
of celebrates? The public isn't; and
Mr.. Pyle with his habitual shrewd-
ness, knew the public isn't. He knew
the deception practiced on the public
by such maneuvers is no more real
than is the surprise visited upon a
presidential nominee by notification
committee four weeks after the nom
inee has been nominated by national
convention.
Mr.. Pyle knowing the public isn't
deceived, made no effort to conceal
the sale of Mr.. Oranges name. On
the contrary, Mr.. Pyle nassed the
news to the entire country. He boast
ed of Mr.. Oranges cash value, there
by increasing the number of cash
customers during Mr.. Oranges ap-
pearance at the football parks.
The deceptive testimonials do not
deceive. They merely interest. The
public stops at Billie Burke's picture,
and learns that she dearly loves to
see man smoke pipe. The public
makes another stop at Queen Marie's
picture, and learns that all that she
is, or ever hopes to be, she owes to a
vanishing cream. If the name of the
cream sticks in the public's memory,
the advertisement has accomplished
it's purpose. If not, not. In either
case, there has been no deception
