Legion Will Aid In
Forret-me-not Salt

The disabled soldiers, sailors and
marines of Minnesota are organic
ed under the title Disabled Amer
lean Veterans" a national body,
the purpose of which is to cooper
ate with and supplement the work
of the American Legion in secur-
ing the passage of essential legis-
lation, and in otherwise improving
the lot of those who because of
their world war service, now SUI
fer physical or mental handicaps
which do not permit them to follow
their pre-war hvlihood.
Saturday, Sept. "a will be the
anniversary of Argonne Day, when
the big decisive push was made by
the Allies, resulting in the disabil-
ity and death of many American
soldiers. This year, on September
"a, Minnesota citizens will have an
opportunity, not to repay that
debt, but to expl ess in very small
way their eternal gratitude for
that unselfish sacrifice.
The token of that gratitude
will be little Forget-Me-Not. A
little Forget-Me-Not, made in the
Minnesota Legion Auxiliary Pop
py Shop at Minneapolis by one of
those injured comrades, part of
whose livelihood depends on what
he earns in making the Forget-Me-
Not you will buy and wear in his
honor on Argonne Day, September
"a, and in memory of those other
comrades of his who answered the
roll call in eternity.
James L.. Monnahan, from his
Fort Smelling headquarters, as
State leader Of Minnesota members
of the Disabled American Veter-
ans, has asked all to cooperate in
the sale. Minnesota Legion Aux
iliary units have volunteered to
conduct it at points where no
chapter of the D. A. v. exists. The
proceeds will be used for the ben
eft of buddies whose sacrifice we
can never repay.
Citizens of Minnesota, be sure
to buy and wear a little blue For
get-Me-Not on Argonne Day, Sat
urday, September "a. That is the
plea Of The American Legion and
Auxiliary, whose members know
full well the trials that have been
endured by those who did not
count the cost on Argonne Day
nine years ago.

Paris is doing herself proud entertaining the
American Legion convention. In the monster pa
rade held few days ago the Minnesota contingent
were the most vigorously welcomed OF any OF those
in the line of march. The Gopher gang carried
huge banners indicating that they came from Lind
bergh's state. The Little Falls young man is de-
servedly the popular idol in Paris and they
showed their feelings by the reception OF the Min
nesota Legionaires.
Commander Foch in an address in which ne
paid a splendid tribute to Gen Perishing concluded
his remarks with the following reference to the
American doughboy:
; "Your Legion is revelation to France.
With your youth your powers of accomp-
lishment you sweep away every barrier be

YOUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER


Nebraska Merchant and Trade Review
One of the things which becomes increasingly
evident to us as travel about over the state is
the influence which local newspapers may exert on
the progress of the average town. While it is gen.
orally acceded that paper can thrive without the
support of the merchants, it appears to us that
many merchants consider too lightly, if at all, the
benefits which they derive, could derive, from
having their town represented by good live paper
For instance, it Us not hard to understand that
your own advertising will attract more favorable
attention in a well edited, neat appearing paper
than in dull, uninviting-looking sheet. Moreover
the live readable paper will generally be found to
have large circulation and will be read with a
good deal of interest, all of which means dollars
and cents to you as advertiser
But consider your local paper from the stand
point of community news which it carries. A we'll
edited paper chock-full of local news, is bound to
create much good will for your town. Whenever
the town attempts to put over community event.
of whatever Sort the local newspaper will largely de
eide the success or failure of the venture by the
publicity which it provides jim the news columns
We are all interested most in the things we
know most about Therefore, if you have good
live newspaper to tell the folks about your town.
it follows quite naturally that they will be interest
ed in your town and viii come to trade. Isn't that
worth thinking about?

There is much sentiment in the rank and file
of the Republican party of Minnesota for con-
vention next year to indorse candidates for state
offices and the United States Senate. These can
didates would be compelled to go to the primaries
to receive the regular nominations, but the men IN
dorsed would have long lead over their Compel
itors and the state would raise the ability plane OF
its public officials. convention of this sort would
very likely indorse Gov Theodore Christianson for
the United States Senate. This is the governors
natural goal. He can be nominated and defeat
Shpstead next year. Many things can happen in
two years more as governor TO jeopardize his popu-
arity to the extent that he could not defeat Scha
in 1880. The experience of Jake Preus, former
governor, is fine illustration how the senatorshp
can slip from man who has not sufficient courage
to enter the race at the proper time.

Men who are supposed to be on the "inside"
insist that the General Motors Co., and Henry Ford
are about ready to start battle for the business
in the automotive game. Both have plenty Of
money, and high class organizations The average
newspaper man will hope that the indications are
correct las the automobile manufacturers long since
learned that to increase and hold sales they must
come to the country newspapers for contracts for
large newspaper space. The public will benefit di-
recty because prices of of all makes are apt
to go down with thud. Let the battle rage.

DEATH VALLEY CONQUERED

Death Valley, California, $50
miles from Los Angeles, which for
more than three-quarters of a cen
tury, has defied man in his efforts
to combat the suns heat and thirst,
at last has been conquered.
Death Valley is $50 miles long
and from 10 to 35 miles wide, and
at one time was a sea bed Today
it is 80 feet below sea level in
places, although >along one of its
rims towers Mount Whitney, the
highest summit in the continental
United States. In this great area of
sands and waste and lifelessness,
the thermometer from May until the
middle of October, registers about
1877 degrees Farenheit, and no man
dares to live there during that
period, ifhe values his life.
The area is properly named be-
cause with the days of the Forty
miners, pioneers in large numbers
who braved the Pacific trail, to
cross the .desiccated basin and per-
ished. Their principal difficulties
were the lack of water, the suns
terrific heat and a rocky barrier
along the edge of the dessert which
cut them off from the better lands
beyond.
About a year ago, H. w. Eich-
baum, an engineer, who used $780,
900 of his own means, blasted a
highway, 80 miles long. through the
rocky barriers, and at Stovepipes
Wells in the heart of the desert, he
drilled a depth of $50 feet and dis
covered a spring of fresh water
which provides 1000 gallons an
hour. Near this spot, a modern
one-story hotel has recently been
erected which contains all the pre-
sent-day conveniences, namely cleo
trio lights, running hot and cold
water, swimming pools, golf courses
and tennis courts, and nearby is an
airport. AS a result of the building
of the airport, visitors faom Los
Angeles can fly to Death Valley and
back within a few hours, whereas
in the gold rush days, pioneers
struggled through the desert heat
for days and weeks, and even then
lost their lives.
Death Valley thus has been con-
quered, and dynamite was one of
the chief and primary factors in the
conquest.

REFRIGERATION is CHEFS
SECRET OF FINE COOKING

There is a secret of delicious
food that few persons except the
great chefs know, says DR.. Martha
Manning, home refrigeration ex-
pert.
This secret of fine cooking is that
perishable foods, both fresh and
cooked, must be kept in the refri-
gerator at a temperature not higher
than fifty degrees, all the time they
are being held for use. Exposure
to room temperature causes loss of
flavor, flat or insipid taste, the
first hint of staleneSs, which is in
turn the beginning of decay. This
means that every hour a bottle of
milk, a dish of creamed asparagus,
a pound of lettuce or spinach, a
dish of butter, olives or celery
spends out of the refrigerator spells
a definite loss in perfection of flaw
Or-in fine edge of quality, that can
never be placed. The loss can be
stopped by returning the food to the
refrigerator's low temperature, but
a certain fraction of precious flavor
has been destroyed.
Food decays because of the action
of bacteria on it. Everywhere; in
air and water, attached to particles
of dust, bacteria swarm. They are
carried by houseflies. Some of
these germs are disease producing,
some work such changes as to make
food poisonous, others are harmless.
Food seldom is entirely free from
bacteria, but in very small numbers
they are not likely to do harm.
Favorably situated in moist food.
however, they increase by the hour
with incredible speed and at length
work complete decay.
Year round home refrigeration is
a necessity for the household which
values really fine food. The refri-
gerator should be well insulated, to
save ice and produce temperature
adequately uniform and lOw.t l
should be of ample size to contain
without crowding all the foods
which should go into it, Economy
and efficiency both bespeak a we'll
filled ice chamber. Ice is the per-
feet refrigerant 1t supplies a cur
rent of cold moist air which keeps
food tender, moist and juicy, and
keeps the air loaded with strong
flavors, pure by carrying excess
odors down the drain.
