Will Rogers may be this or that but he is
always just. He even gives England half the
credit for Miss Ederle's feat in swimming the
English channel by saying, after all, Britain
furnished the beach for her to land on; otherwise
she would be swimming yeti"

We refuse to get in anyways "het up over
the Redwood County political situation. When
the politicians themselves begin to show little
interest we'll maybe have bit ourselves. But
why should we do all the "agitating" for them
and then have them get the offices! Nothing STIR
ring-we are going to be just as easy about it
as they are.

The Minneapolis Tribune is modest sheet.
1t bthely states that, eff that needle in the hay
stack ever turns up it'll be through Tribune
Classified ad." The Tribune neglects to say
just which department of the paper is going to
be responsible for getting the camel through the
needles eye but we haven't bit of doubt that
this, too, has been provided for.

going to stop at Norwood and commit one large
murder. We hate to do it but Ham Clay has
stolen his last editorial paragraph from us-we

Miss Anna E. Richardson, dean of Home
Economics in the Iowa State College made
statement that the college curriculum which will
fit girls to meet the demands made upon them as
women must include three things; training for
individual fitness, for social usefulness, and for
vocational efficiency. We do not know the mean
ing she placed upon training for social usefulness
but in our observance we find too many people
who seem to think they have responsibility in
the social life of the community in which they
dwell. This is especially true among the young
women. They do not care to assist in the promo
ton of church affairs, not willing to give of
their talent to public entertainments to lend
a hand in charitable movements. 1t is only their
set or their special kind of entertainment in which
they are interested. A training for individual
fitness and for vocational efficiency import
ant but they may make the individual selfish
as to how these two sins of training may be
made to enlarge the individuals social useful

The Missionary Review of the World gives
the following interesting translation of the Twen-
ty-third, the Good Shepherd Psalm. This Psalm,
as the Indians know it, is as follows:
The Great Father above is Shop
herd Chief. l am his, and with him 1
want not.
He throws out to me rope, and the
of the rope is love, and he draws
me, and he draws me to where the grass
is green and the water not dangerous,
and eat and lie down satisfied
Sometimes my heart is very weak
and falls down, but he lifts it up again
and draws me. in to a good road. His
name is Wonderful.
Sometime, it may be very soon, it
may be longer, it may be long, long
time, he will draw me into place be-
tween mountains. 1t is dark there, but
I'll draw back not. I'll be afraid not for
it is in there between these mountains
that the Shepherd Chief will meet me-
and the hunger I have felt in my heart
