DR.. Harry Emerson Fosdick says I'VE ought
tinually to hear q different drummer" So that's
what's the trouble-and the reason so many Of
us are out of step.
Glaring headlights on automobiles have
caused one death in St. Peter and untold suf-
fering to many people. They are the worst
menace on the highways. 1t is not only common
decency to dim these lights but it is crime not
to-St Peter Herald.

Laughing his head off, Fairfax threw both
arms around her" is the caption under picture
in serial story running in one OF the weekly
papers. Oh well, we suppose one doesn't real
ly need head for that sort of thing anyway!
But Laughing ones head off, is so apt to make
things awfully messy!

It is disgusting. Pandolfo, convicted of US
ing the mails to defraud, and sentenced to the
federal penitentiary at Leavenworth for ten
years, was recently released after serving about
three years. He has just returned to St. Cloud
where he caught his suckers stockholders in
the Pan Motor Company, has been lonized by
That doesn't pay back the six millions of dollars
that he filched from the people of the North
west Barnum was right-Hutchinson Leader.

President D. j. Cow.ing of Carleton College
"There is a big difference between
the truth and our understanding of the
truth. Formulas and doctrines express
ing our understanding Of the truth are in
constant need of revision because of our
progress in insight into the real truth
The thought of one generation may be
the best possible understanding of the
truth for that generation, but it may
become bigotry in the next"

H. G.. Wells reached the height of sane writ
ing when he wrote:
Religion is the first thing, and un-
til man has found God and been found
by God he begins at no beginning, he
works to no end. He may have his
friendships, his partial loyalties, his
scraps of honor, but all these things
fall into place, and life itself falls into
place, only with God-God who fights
with men through blind fears and night
and non-existence, who is the end and
who is the beginning"

If there is any truth in the old saying that
Zone good term deserves another" Redwood
County should have reelected George A. Barnes
as County Attorney by an overwhelming major
ity Leaving aside the ability and qualifications
of Mr.. Barnes successor, Leon H. Brown the fact
remains that in recognition Of splendid work tire
lessly done, Mr.. Barnes should have been recog-
nized and commended by reelection. That the
County failed in this recognition is dsappoint-
ment not alone to personal friends of Mr.. Barnes,
but also to those public-sprited citizens who de-
sire to an efficient officer justly treated and
also retained in office for the good of public SER
vice.

The failure of industry to recognize that
there is farm problem has been the greatest
handicap that has confronted those promoting
the movement for agricultural relief. The need
of cooperation by industry has been great, be-
cause agriculture is not strong enough to win
without the help of industry. Once recognition
is given the fact that agriculture is not plane
with industry and that prosperity cannot obtain
throughout the country unless there is equality
of earning power between industry and agricul-
ture, the problem is half solved. With indus
try willing to sit across the table with agricul-
ture in an earnest effort to find and promote the
suits cannot but follow.-Luverne Herald.

Mark Sullivan Of Golfers Weekly recently
wrote book called Our Times In it he rakes
up from the dear, dim and We had hoped, dead
past that awful question "How old is Ann" You
remember tit goes like this, MARY is twenty
four, Mary is twice old Ann was when
Mary as old as Ann is now. How old is
Ann :" We never did get the answer to our own
or any ones else satisfaction and now we are
assured, by less paper than the Minneapo-
lis Journal, that the youth of Minneapolis has
bounced on this question though it were
something new and vital, and is wildly and mass
eddy looking for the solution. We hope the dear
kids get as much fun out of it as we did some
thir-well, some several years ago. But any
way, doesn't it all go to prove that youth is
always youth, and that though elders
hate to admit it, the world pretty much goes in
cycles after all
