CUNNINGHAM SELLS HIS FINE
HERD OF GUERNSEY CATTLE

Moose Lake Star Gazette: Jack
Cunningham, one of the leading. dairy
men of this section, has sold his en-
tire. herd of fine high grade Guernsey
mich cows (13 in ally to A. Schultz
of Springfield, MINI. Mr.. Cunning
ham received an average of $166.50
per cow.
Since his father, George H. Cunning
ham, ST., died last summer, a good
deal of Jacks time has been taken up
with the management of the mercan-
tile business left by his father and
which he intends to continue another
year or two.
Mr.. Cunningham says he will no
doubt go into the dairy business again,
and when he does it will be on lar
,, ger scale than ever. His next ven
ture in the dairy game, he says, will
be with registered Guernseys only.
During the past year Mr.. Cunning
hams herd has been one of the best
in the Moose Lake Cow Testing asso-
citation and has led the entire state
on two or three occasions.

THE SATISFIED CLASS

In every country there is a salts
fed class-too satisfied to care. The
satisfied class asks no questions and
answers none. They believe the world
is as it should be. All the reformers
are simply disturbers of the peace.
The truth is today what it always
will be-those who feel are the only
ones who think. A cry comes from
the oppressed, from the hungry, from
the downtrodden, from the unfor-
Inmates, from men who despair and
from the women who weep. There
are times when mendicants become
revolutionists-whe a rag becomes
a flag under which the noblest and
bravest battle for the right.
It is impossible for a man with
a good heart to be satisfied with the
world as it now is. No one can truly
enjoy what he earns-what he knows
to be his own-knowing that millions
of his fellowmen are in misery and
want.-Robert Ingersoll.
