EDITORS TO MEET AT
VALHALLA AUGUST Is |

Members of the Second District
Editorial association will hold their
third consecutive summer outing at
Valhalla this year. The date has
been set for Saturday, August 18th.
While the program has not yet
been made and awaits the action OF
President John L. King, of Jackson,
sufficient plans are known so that it
can be said that the outing this year
will be the best of all.
Second district editors will not be
here alone, First, Third, Seventh,
Ninth and even editors from the sixth
district up in northern Minnesota
have manifested their intention of at
tending, as have few from Iowa.
In all likelihood there will be the
largest attendance of any like gath
ering ever held in Minnesota, with
the exception of the annual meetings
of the state association.
With Lake Shetek fully restored to
it's proper level, Valhalla is more in
viting than ever and with the splen-
did boating, bathing and fishing, to
say nothing of the kittenball games,
the horseshoe tournament and other
amusements, including big dance at
night, boys and girls of the press will

THE AUDIENCE COURTEOUS

Most of us were brought up to
think that the members of an audi
ence should show some courtesy TO
those who are giving the program
and most of US try to do so, unless
we are particularly hot and uncom-
Portable some summer evening, but
there are limits to the courtesy oil
many of us.
We will listen most respectfully to
a speaker, no matter how bored we
may be at his words, but the minute
the music starts, we rustic around IN
our chairs and begin to talk to our
neighbors. True, we speak in whis-
pers, but the fact remains that we
nav little or no attention to the
music, unless there be something
very special about it, and we do COM
nit the gross breach of manners OF
talking while it is going on.
And all this preliminary leads US
to the point, which is that it Is just
as bad to be discourteous to the MEM
bers of our local band while they are
playing out of doors by distracting
attention from the music in any way,
as it is to whisper through a musical
number played inside. We under
stand that a number of boys have
been guilty in this regard during the
recent concerts, and we hope that all
they need is to be reminded OF the
discourtesy of their actions, to do
away with this nuisance.-Hennepm

Wet Weather And
State Highways

Figures recently released by the Of
flee of the state highway commission
er show that in March, 1926, it cost
$4,000 to maintain the state high
ways, in March, 1927, because of the
unusually wet weather maintenance
cost S224,OOO. The department ex-
poets that figures will indicate that
maintenance for April will probably
run as much over last year as the
March figures did,
In this is found the strongest agru-
ment for pushing the paving OF state
highways. The state has lost gravel
that costs hundreds of thousands OF
dollars. 1t simply disappeared into
mud holes and is of no value what
ever. If another such spell OF wealth
GER hits the state more tons OF gravel
will be lost, for the state can keep
right on pouring gravel into mud
holes.
This method is not sensible, effici-
ent or economical. Everything IS
against it and nothing is for it. The
argument that the state must be
careful to avoid unnecessary expense
breaks down here. The state is bear
ing unnecessary expense when 1t pur-
sues a policy of waste. This is such
a policy, for the state is paying Tor
what it does not get. 1t is paying out
money to get good roads and bad
weather makes the roads impossible.
1t is barely possible that the peo-
ple have received lesson which may
result in a demand that the paving
program be rushed and that the state
highway commissioner be voted the
necessary funds to carry forward his
plans. If the recommendations OF
Mr.. Babcock were accepted the state
of Minnesota would avoid the waste
of money resulting from pouring
gravel into mud holes: Pavements
would take the place of roads that
won't stand up in bad weather and
in the end the tax payers would be
benefited. The difference between the
S96, 900 spent for maintenance IN
March, 1926, and the $224,O0O spent
in March, 1927, represents waste
of money that is not justified. Or
need this be if the people would see
the senselessness of such methods

A WALKING VACATION

Walking is a sport, the simplest OF
all sports, sport that demands no
special ability, training or equipment.
All you need is pair of responsible
feet and sufficient motive power to
enable you alternately and progress
sively to lift them up and set them
down over and upon whatever part OF
the earth's surface happens to be con-
venient.
The conventional traveller is all
tangled up with schedules, baggage
and such; he is always considering
what clothes to wear, what routes are
practicable and to what hotel he
should wire ahead for accommoda-
tons. With a pack to supply your
needs and feet able to take you where
you want to go, the world is yours
and the loveliest corners thereof.
The right pack is the one that en-
ables you most comfortably to carry
what you need, and the right foot
wear is that which fits you and the
region and is adequately soled with
out being so heavy as to remind you
that an ounce on the foot is equal to
a pound on the back.-Arthur Gutter
man in the Outlook.

NEW DOLLAR BILLS WILL
BE MADE SMALLER IN SIZE

For the first time since 1861 the
size of the American paper currency
is to be altered, and Andrew w. Mel
Ion, Secretary of the Treasury, says
that the new notes will mean a saving
of 100000 year in manufacture.
They are to be reduced a third in
size and will appear in common use
in about year.
There doesn't appear to exist any
particular reason for the size of the
currency as it is today except for the
fact it has been convenient to cut it
that way from the paper stock in
use. But people who have returned
from the Philippines and have hand
led the paper money there have writ
ten in so often to the Treasury De-
partment about the great convenience
of it's size and what a nuisance it
was to have to fold the paper money
of the United States that it was de-
cided to make study Of the differ
ent sizes.
1t was found that the smaller size
could be handled much more easily by
anyone who had a great deal of mon
ey to count-a cashier in a bank for
instance-and that it fitted into a
pocketbook without having to be fold
ed first. The number of times bill
is folded has great deal to do with

cash to pay in full for a home has
no worries about financing. Most peo-
pie, however, can pay only part of
the price IN cash and are obliged to
borrow the rest. 1t must always be
remembered that the more cash one
can pay down on a house the better.
Borrowing money TO buy home
is no disgrace. On the contrary, it is
normal and in many ways desirable.
Many families in meeting payments
on a loan have learned the habit of
saving. and have continued it as a
step toward financial independence.
Most families who buy a home
must pay for it out of their own saw
inEs.
Usually it is desirable for them
to possess. free from obligation at
least one-fifth, or 20 per cent, of the
value of the house and lot in cash.
While arrangements often are made
for a purchase with less, a larger
cash payment helps to insure a loan
at a low rate of interest and one that
can be comfortably paid off"

OWNERS OF NEW HOMES
URGED TO KEEP BOOKS
Purchasers Advised to Record All
Expenditures Incidental
to Upkeep.

One of the best things any one can
do when he moves into the new home,
is TO start keeping books. An accurate
record should be kept of all expendl-
tures-every cent of income should
be accounted for in the expense
record This is the only way one can
tell how money is being disbursed and
where further economy can be prac-
ticed.
Household bookkeeping is not a
tedious task once it is started; instead,
as time goes on, it will afford much
pleasure to make comparisons with
preceding months and years. Posting
an expense book every day takes Just
a few minutes, but gives you a record
that will mean more to future success
than anything else you could do in
the same length OF time,
Many people go even farther than
just keeping a record of expense
they plan their spending with a bud
get, and make every item of expen-
diture stay within the amount pro-
vided in the budget. A very good
idea, yet the budget without definite
record of actual spending would be Of
little value. so the record is the vital
factor after all.
