There is alleged wave of immortality

The secretary of credit bureau says 80 per
cent of the people live beyond their means. And
some of those live so far beyond their means
that they have to maintain autoes to go back

in his life, but he has good driving sense even at
that.
SSuthern Minnesota cities are organizing to

There are two things Minnesota doesn't need
any more than cat needs an Oriental rug. One
is branch banking law and the other is guar
anty deposit law. The "chain" system in banks
is wrong in principal and we want none of it. And
the only trouble with all the bank guaranty
laws is that they fail to guarantee Outside of
that both laws fine things.

Bob Forrest of the Lake Wilson Pilot has
finally settled down to business and is writing
some corking good editorials on the current top
les of the day. We have bunch that Bob will
slump just as soon as the fishing season opens,
but his close attention to his editorial duties is
mighty nice while it lasts anyway. We al
ways knew the boy had considerable intelligence
if only it weren't overshadowed by his Incidence.
We are glad to know he has turned over a new
leaf
One of the exchanges from southern Min
nesota makes the following comment on the APP
pointment of Rev. Frank Doran as Chaplain of
the House.
Rev. Frank Doran, of st. Paul, a
stalwart Methodist and Republican,
whom many down in this part of the
state love and respect for his genuine
manhood, was appointed Chaplain of the
Senate, by the Lieutenant Governor. We
trust he will spend much time in Christ
ian betterment of the senator from
Martin County.
We notice that branch office of the
Minnesota Building and Loan Associa-
ton has been established at st. James,
and other progressive towns of the
state. This is one of the things that
Window needs for there is always
shortage of residences and if we can't
have one of our own it might be well to
encourage outside concern to help US
out. There is many family during the
year that would move to Window if suit
able homes could be found for them.

But don't be satisfied with any branch.
Start one of your own. 1t will work out fine If
you get business men at the head of it and put
a good man in charge. Ours is working out to
the direct benefit of the investor and also of
those who making loans through it.

Somebody, we haven't been able to figure out
just who, is attempting to play politics with
Charley Babcock's name and standing in the
State. Last week all the metropolitan papers
and few not metropolitan carried big stories
of Mr.. Babcock's alleged intention to run for the
Senate in 1928. And then the next several days
they occupied several columns with Mr.. Babcock's
denial Nothing to it" says the big road man.
"All ask is that be left alone to build up our
trunk highway system. This is the work love
and want to stay at it." That makes it quite
clear that the Senatorial ambitions story was
started without Mr.. Babcocks consent or know
ledge. If it was started for purpose by the
friends of the $2o,000,ooo highway herd Issue NE
should say that the politics of the ting win
