GRADE SWIMMERS
WILL PERFORM

Former records have been lowered
during practice. A team will be made
up by the winners of this meet to
swim against Buhl High School some
time after the state meet. The idea
of using eighth graders against Buhl,
is to get some new material lined up
for next year to fill the vacancies on
the High School team. Six regulars
will be lost by graduation, Hokkanen,
Tanttari, Nappa, Pucel, Saari and
LaitaIa. Their loss will be severe
blow to the team as they were the
main point-winners throughout the
season.
Some of the most outstanding boys
in the eighth grade who will make
a bid for the team next year are
Rudolph KraH in the crawl and div
ing; Darcy Goard crawl and diving;
w. Koski, A. Kittila, H. Saari, T.
Arvola, J. Bonneer, A. Rukala, N.
Kauppi, w. Enquist, K. Grinden are
all free stylers. U. Elfwing, T. Ar
VIOLA, R. Kran and F. Luthanen are
back strokers. E. Jokinen, A. Walli
and F. Luthanen are promising
breast strokers. With all these boys
in the lineup next Tuesday the meet
gives promise to bel good one.
Remember the date, Tuesday April
5th at 7:30 P. M. Admission is free
and parents, teachers and citizens
are invited.

There are valuable mineral salts
dissolved in the liquid that surrounds
canned vegetables, and it should not
be thrown away. Use it in a sauce
served with the vegetable, or in soup
or gravy. Boil canned vegetables
for at least 5 minutes before using.
Mouldy bread may be due to wrap
ping the bread up before it is cool,
or to lack of care of the bread box.
In addition to airing the bread box
frequently, sometimes scald it out
thoroughly, and dry it in a warm
oven or ON back of the stove or
directly in the sun. Molds do not
like dry hot air or sunshine.
Sew up the buttonholes before
you wash a sweater, SO they won't
stretch. Measure it before washing,
and afterwards, lay it out back
down, on several thicknesses of soft,
clean material, and shape it to the

if it seems inclined to shrink. OF
course you would only wash "a
sweater in lukewarm water and neu-
trail soap, rinsing 1t in several waters
of the same temperature and squeez-
ing the dirt out, rather than rubbing
it.

Besides establishing bad precedent

"Gehiel, the Scribe" writing IN the
St. Paul Daily News spoke unto the
multitudes as follows:
Hear We the wisdom of the vets
and give ear to the dark sayings OF
those who pant after beer with many
pants. Behold the prophets OF Gam
hrinus lift up their voices like the
voice of many waters (albeit they
seek not water) and declare to all
people that prohibition was slipped
over like a thief in the night and
that, as a kimono which goeth on
smoothly, so wot not the voters the
whichness of the wherefore thereof.
"Yea, verify, Edward the Jerseyite
and Bruce the Baltimorean and Mich
olas the Knickerbocker with many
other mighty men, the seers and the
wise counsellors of the hosts of Gam
brinus, show forth the glory of the
vets and declare that all but des-
pissed remnant of the people will
haste to the battle of ballots and
smite the Volsteadites hip and thigh
with great slaughter. Selah.
"Yet when, in an assembly OF
chosen counsellors at Washington,
some of the wets consented to the
eloture on the enforcement bill, be-
hold these mighty men walled like a
babe that yearneth for it's milk and
bawled like lad that wrestlets with
a toothache under its apron, for say
they, "These wets voted with the
drys to entice them to choose wet
Chief ruler in 1925" Selah.
"Then up spake fool, yea, a man
without understanding made a
speech saying: eff there be so measly
few drys, why seek the unfaithful
vets to entice them? And how shall
q candidate be made strong with
their weakness?" But who will heed
the folly of fool?

WE MUST CARRY OUT THE WORK
LIEBKNECHT DIED FOR!

1t is now eight years that Karl
Liebknecht and Rosa Luxembourg were
brutally murdered because they were
such good fighters for the working
people. They we're killed on January
10, 1919.
Liebknecht's great work was fight
ing against militarism and helping to
organize the young workers. The old
Socialists, who were already begin
ing to betray the workers, didn't like
the work he was doing and they tried
In every way to hinder him but they
couldn't stop him very much.
When the war broke out most Of
the Socialists and trade union lead
ers went right over to the side of the
kaiser and told the workers to go out
and fight for the bosses. But Leb-
knecht and Luxembourg and his small
band-the Spartakus League -stood
flrm and told the workers the truth
and led the workers against the war.
For that Ldebknecht was put into
prison.
Finally the German workers got
tired of the war and started a revo-
lution. The kaiser was overthrow
and Lebknecht was 1et out ofprisou.
But the workers still believed In the
fake socialists and let them lead the
government. Just as these fake So
cialists had before supported the kats-
er's war as now they went ahead sup
pressing the workers and handing the
government over ito the bosses. Lieb-
knecht and his friends cried out
against this and told the workers that
they must really do in order to have
workers government. For this the
fake Socialists made a conspiracy
with the old kaiser officers and butch
cred many hundreds Of good workers
and killed Kiebknecht and Luxem-
burg.

LOS ANGELES, Calif.-In a speech

be taken against members of the

AS a result of this speech, patriotic
