chair. DIR. Lynn would stand and smile and smile
and smile and gradually the victim would lose
all sense of consciousness and sail away into that
blessed realm where he would be surrounded by
nothing but the smiles of surprisingly beautiful
angels and cherubim. Doc. Budik would talk to
his patient, and when Doc. had talked long
enough any ordinary patient would gladly pass
out for brief rest. And that rest period would
be Docs cue. DR.. johnson would just be silent
and handsome and austere, and finally his patient
(who would undoubtedly be of the feminine per-
suasion) would just swoon with admiration-and
then the Doctor would wave mean forceps and
get into action. They are all quite able to do
the trick-alone and unaided and without add-
tional charge.

SHALL WE BE HYPNOTIZED?

This interesting bit of information comes
from Chicago-guage yourself accordingly in
your belief of it.
"Hypnotism has obiterated the hor-
rors of the dentists drill and is hailed as
a substitute for laughing gas. This was
shown at a demonstration attended by
newspaper representatives.
"Zeeca G. Bumzahen. slender,
swarthy hypnotist from Brazil made a
few passes before the eyes of Mrs. Nellie
Hardt who had four molars that defied
dental treatment. After the hypnotist
had commanded her to sleep she settled
back into the chair and did not blink an
eve while Dr. r. ]. Cox extracted three
molar roots and drilled fourth. For
10 minutes or more he drilled steadily
upon a tooth that nobody had been able
to touch heretofore.
Despite her sleep, she obeyed ev-
cry suggestion by the dentist, opening
her mouth when directed and awakening
Immediately when so ordered. She said
she had not felt the slightest pain"
Imagine that sort of procedure in the office
of any one of the four Doctors of Dentistry in
Redwood Falls! Doc. Inglis, the Dean of Dent
lists, would probably hypnotize his victim by re-
quiring her to gaze steadily at his shining poll

A SALES ORGANIZATION FOR MINNESOTA

~ ACKED by the Minnesota Realty Asso.
X citation there is a new organization, of i'm
- portance to Minnesota. now in the max
ing. This organization has for its purpose q
nationwide advertising program for the purpose
of letting the world know something of the beau.
ty and the value of Minnesota. The committee
as first formed consists of a hundred or more
Minnesotans who believe in their state. They
have chosen Otto Neuman of Wheaton as thei,
leader and julius A. Schmahl as the treasurer
The other officers are to be named later. But
the fact that these two men are so interested
that they are willing to add to their already over
crowding duties by taking on this extra work
is hallmark of the Importance of the organi
zation.
After the preliminary meeting held in june
the Minneapolis Tribune published the following
editorial concerning it's purpose. The status o.
the organization remains unchanged by the sec
ond meeting called Monday of last week, fo
further organization.
"There be only admiration for
the initiative, the aggressiveness, and
the public-spiritedness that prompted
the gathering of business men. bank
ers, transportation and industrial Off
cials, and officials of the Minnesota
nesday at the Nicollet hotel to launch
nationwide advertising program in
tended to let the world know something
about Minnesota.
"The group decided to back the real
ty mems proposal to raise 5000, 900 for
a three-year campaign. A committee
of 100 Minnesotans, representing all
sections of Minnesota. is to be chosen;
md ha chorn
with the job of raising the first years
allotment of 100000 and of spending it
where it will do the most good.
Here is an all-Minnesota move
ment which every element in Minnesota
should get behind. 1t has been recog-
nized for years that Minnesota's chief
weakness has lain in sales organization.
The knack of winning publicity, and the
right sort of publicity, is import
ant to a state as to candidate for pub
lie office. No state compete sue
cessfully with other states if the other
states keep holding the edge on it as
regards publicity. Probably one reason
whv Minnesota has not been sold to the
world as efficiently as it should have
been is because what is everybody's busi-
ness is nobodys business.
"In any event the group which met
Wednesday is on the right track 1t
proposes to have Minnesotans join in an
all Minnesota effort to let the world
know what Minnesota has to offer. We
hope that out of this may grow real
sales organization for the state, an or
ganization which will sell Minnesota to
the union on the California Florida

possibility of an early cut in the re-
discount charge. In some banking
quarters there is feeling that the
reduction might be delayed until after
there has been downward readjust-
ment of brokers' loans until such time
as it becomes evident that the main
purpose of the change would stimulate
business rather than speculation in
securities.
One of the reasons assigned for the
comparative dullness of recent markets
is the absences of several large op-
orators on winter vacations. Most of
the larger commission houses present
a rather deserted appearance during
trading hours, despite the many rumors
and "tips" in circulation. While in
'creases in brokers loans generally in
dictate an expansion in public interest,
the recent rise has been attributed
largely to borrowings by undertaking
syndicates.
Some of the motors were subjected
to short selling on the theory that in
creasing competition foreshadowed
further price cuts and the probable
eliminationi of some of the smaller
companies. Chrysler, General Motors,
Peerless and Yellow Truck preferred

reports that operations had increased

raw sugar eased off lie of a cent a

"DRYS' FEARED
CHIEFS BRIBED,
SO DIDN'T TELL

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Coast guard
conditions were such in 1925 that when
a coast guard commander invited Mar
tin T. Moran, also commander at the
time, to join a bribe scheme with rum
runners, Moran hesitated to report the
matter for fear his superiors were also
among the conspirators, he testified in
federal court today. Moran took the
stand as a government witness in the
trial of Edward and Frank Costello
and 10 other alleged members of an
international rum ring.
While he was commander of the
c. G. 1SS in 1926, he testified, John
Stuart, who was then commander of
the c. G. 1876, told him about bribes
the rum runners were willing to pay
for coast guard protection and invited
him to share in them. Moran said he
refused to consider the propositic::,
and later reported the conversation
"Why didn't you report it immedi-
ately?" he was asked on cross exam
ination.
"I was afraid my superior officers
were also in the bribe ring" he re-
piled.
MORAN looh lHe StstHu AlIel lHe ue
fense had completed cross examination
of Samuel d. Briggs, Bielaski agent and
former executive officer at base four,
who was the most sensational witness
of the trial Briggs told of a CONVEX
sation he had in 1925 with Philip j.
Coffey, one of the defendants, who
told him that Gen. Lincoln c. Andrews,
assistant secretary of the treasury, in
charge of prohibition enforcement, was
to receive 100000 year by an agree
ment with the rum runners.
In Washington, General Andrews re-
ceived the news of Briggs testimony
with a laugh, saying that the only
connection he ever had with rum rum
ners was to get as. many of them as
possible in jail.

GRAIN MARKET

{ CHICAGO, Jan. 13. - R- Increasing
shipments from Argentina and liberal
moisture for the domestic winter crop
gave wheat a downward slant today.
Wheat closed nervous, unchanged to
u cent lower; corn at M to cents
advance; oats unchanged to " cent
off, and provisions varying from S
cents decline to a rise of 25 cents.
Sellers of wheat paid special atten-
tion to estimates that exports from
Argentina this week would total nearly
three times as much as last week
The bearish effect of this news was
emphasized, too, by advices that Ar
gentine wheat could be had in Rlrope
at equal to Is cents a bushel cheaper
than wheat from the United States.
Meanwhile export business in North
American wheat today was only mod
crate. Rye, however, was again
stronger and showed more resistance
to selling pressure than did wheat.
Talk of prospective enlarged re-
ceipts Of wheat southwest accompa-
MED reports of widespread snow and
rain likely to benefit the winter crop.
A feature was that Kansas, the banner
age covering of six inches of snow,
preceded by rain that broke long
drought in the western part of the
state.
washington advices that there were
prospects for the passage of the re-
vised McNary- -Haugen bill were with
out much market effect.
Wntry conditions in the corn belt
put strength into corn. The crop
movement is expected to fall off be-.
cause of heavy snowfalls. Oats were
steadied by corn.

ceipts of hogs.

NEW YORK, Jan. B-The stock

of the narrow trading area within
which it has been floundering for a

accompanied by rumors of an early re-

issues, but they failed to make much
headway because of the continued lack
