"Our histories TEEN with the ad.
ventures of the great explorers, the
Statesmen, and the Warriors of all
ages. Young men and women of to-
day regret that they live in a day
when there are no new lands to ex-
plore nor new worlds to discover
There is no need for them to regret
their limitations, said DR.. Wilson
There is no history or fiction that is
more alluring than the history OF
new discoveries being made every day
in scientific fields. The microscope
opened this field of discovery. Pasteul
began a research that exceeds the
deeds of Napoleon, and yet, while
Napoleon slew his thousands on the
battlefields of Europe, and Pasteur
set in motion processes that has saw
ed ten of thousands of lives the world
over, the tomb of Napoleon looms big
above the memorial to Fasteur. New
er-the-less Pasteur was an adventur-
er in a much greater sense than was
Napoleon
"In our own day the cause of the
dread Yellow Fever has been found,
and what was once the scourge Of
the tropics has practically been elm
mated. The history of the research
that lead to this victory over disease
is marked with its martyrs, and its
Incompatible heroes. There remains
the White Plague, tuberculosis, to be
combated, and eliminated from among
the enemies of the race, That is but
one of the fields of adventure open for
the best of men with the keenest of
minds.
There are vast fields of adventure
in chemistry that have barely been
touched. The world is looking for the
man who will release from the air
the vast stores of nitrogen that are
needed to bring our soil back to it's
virgin fertility
"There is another, and by far the
greatest of all adventures waiting for
a mind that is keen enough and strong
enough to cope with it. l refer to
the elimination of war. In every case
where a great victory has been won
over an enemy of the race the cause
has been discovered first and elimin-
ated. 1t remains now for some great
mind to discover the cause of war,
and to discover a means by which
that cause may be forever wiped from
the earth. Then and then only will
wars cease
Speaking to the class of graduates,
DIR. Wilson added, "Thus there are
fields of adventure that are thrilling
enough to absorb your attention and
to make, for each one of you a name
that will be immortalized to pos
terity".
Mr.. Burmeister, president of the
school board, in presenting the Dip
Tomas remarked very fittingly to the
graduates that they were now be-
ginning to realize the Importance of
life, to realize that their job in the
world was not alone to make liv-
ing, but to make life of usefulness.

jobs, on T. H. Nos. and ID, are
part of plan which will eliminate
the steep grade north of Morton
and between Morton and Redwood
Falls. An overhead bridge, to be ad-
vertised later, will eliminate a danger
GUS grade crossing at the roundhouse
and new bridge, also to be advertis-
ed later, will be built over the Min
nesota river. All of this work is
on U. S. route No. II, an important
interstate highway. The character
of the grading is indicated by the
fact that it involves $4,000 cubic
yards of excavation on Sc miles of
road.
There is one short stretch of paw
ing at East Grand Forks and one on
No. SO west of Fort Smelling. The
latter is part of the construction which
will eventually give Shakopee and ci-
ties southwest of that place on No.
5, direct paved routes to both Of the
Twin Cities. Bids for 47,152 barrels
of cement, to be used on these two
jobs, will be opened at 2 p. m. the
same day.
Six bridges are advertised for let
ting Five of them involve widening
of existing bridges on highways that
are being graded or improved. The
shouldering is on roads now being
paved.

FOR one day only," began the third
day of an enforced vacation last Fri
day. The circus, which entered the
city in all it's traditional glory, hav-
ing "gone broke" a few hours after
it's arrival.
An occasional roar of the sole lion
of the circus, and the muffled grunts
of its four elephants as they swung
restlessly back and forth in their
cramped quarters, were the only
sounds in the freight yards where the
yellow cars Of the circus train have
been waiting for the signal that yes
terday was to have taken them to the
next town-Blue Earth.
There was no show at Blue Earth
Thursday. The crowds came and
listened for the familiar sound of
the calliope. But the ancient pipes
weren't heard. for they too were
resting on the siding here.
The wait started when officials of
the circus discovered they had no
money to pay the railway for moving
the cars to the next town and Friday
the wait still was continuing.
The sheriff also arrived and with
him 10 attachments on the various
pieces of circus property. So the show
remained in Fairmont.

in highly complementary terms of
Ramsey Park and the natural beauty
that has been preserved there. An
invitation had previously been ex-
tended the Farm Bureau by the Park
Board to hold their picnic at the park
next year.
There are 1900 counties in Ameri-
ca today carrying out the Farm Bur-
eau program, continued Mr.. Thomp-
son. Farming today is being placed
on the same basis that is the founda-
tion in all other great industries. If
the County Agent work did nothing
more than to organize the boys and
girls in club activities it would be
worth infinitely more than the cost
The club work gives the young people
of the farms something concrete for
which to work; it gives to them the
sense of victory and the feeling of
success. Under the system the farms
are brought to a maximum of produc-
ton on minimum of acreage.
Agriculture is more promising to-
day than it was three or four years
