Let's remember this bit of information
the next time Father Flanagan sends
his boys to put on an entertainment
in this town.

Minnesota is just a bit chesty
over the fact that it leads all
other states in the matter of an
unbroken stretch of paved road
-185 miles. This big improvement
begins six miles south of Owa-
| tonna and continues north thru
the Twin Cities to Belle Prairie.
Blue Earth Post.
Yeah, but who wants to go to Belle
Prairie? What southwestern Min
nesota is waiting for is hundred,
twenty miles of paving from the Twin
Cities to REDWOOD FALLS! And
some day Charley Babcock will give
it to Minnesota as a necessary con-
nection between two great state
centers!

Frank Day tried to put into practice
his belief that one should give some
thing useful for Christmas" So he
starts off to a visit with his Winona
daughter, carrying ten pound pail
of homemade sorghum. He forgot
it on the start and the ''fast" Oma-
ha train had to be held while one of
the Fairmont SentineTs employees
hotfooted it to the depot with Franks
sorghum. He forgot it when he
changed trains at some place or an
other, and then there was another
holding Of the speeding" train while
the brakeman again united Frank and
his sorghum. Doesn't it beat the
Jews that not even homemade sor-
ghum can make Frank "stick" to one
thing long enough to arrive?

Years back st. Peter had three pa
pers. Now it has just one print shop
which will give the people twice-a-
week news service. And everybody
better served and better satisfied
SO residents of that Nicollet County
town tell US.
H. S. Baker Of St. Peter, the popu-
lar travelling salesman for one Of
Minneapolis most popular paper
houses, is being boosted for governor
having just recently received the un-
animous endorsement of the Society
for the Prevention of Swearing
That's a grand endorsement but in
spite of it we are not going to vote
for Baker" He's the only paper
man" we have ever been able to talk
out of making collection when he
lays bill on our desk. Not that we
wish to suggest that Baker" is sus.
ceptible to "vamping" but-oh, well
you know what we mean! Anvwa,
we hope to see H. S. stay right or
the job he's at now. But we are in
terested in knowing, or endeavoring
to know, how he ever got into tina:
Society-and earned its endorsement
Then, too, how does st. Peter fet this
stuff that about every other Cover.

We have never visited California
and her beauty parlors but this i:
what Fred Hadley has discovered
about these temples of beauty in the
far west.
/ eff we had a son, we would
not train him to be Captain of
Industry, or a great financier.
No, sir, we would not! But we
would teach him to aspire to
something that would make him
a lot of money, and place him
in a position where he could be
proud, naughty and independent.
In other words, we would want
him to be the proprietor of a
beauty parlor. We notice that
whenever the Misses hath de-
sire to have her face renovated,
or some kute kinks put in her
tresses, she has to call up the
austere proprietor Of the Wrinkle
Works and beg for an appoint
ment. And after haggiing and
begging, she is understanding
j ly permitted to come q week
from next Tuesday afternoon at
one o'clock sharp, at which hour
the Madame will receive her and
most of our weeks wages. That,
as Potash said to Perlmutter, is
business
! IT,
i Consider We the college chap,
he went away a greenish "yap"
/ and now returns with an individ
ually sophisticated map
