The big fight is oyer. Dempsey,
the greatest fighter of prize ring
history, is Enthusiastically so.
Which leads us to remark that
there are a lot of poor guessers
in the u. s.. The fight game will
continue to improve, but it is
doubtful whether this generation
will see another fighter of Demp-
sey's calibre. There will, how
ever, always be plenty of poor
guessers. No reason for us to kick,
we lost no money. Note Since
the above was put in type, we read
in the dailies that fight fans are
willing to spend another stagger-
ing sum to see Tunney and Demp-
sey battle again.

Gently on Big Stone Lake, near

which would be cool and summary

that they know their knees are not

consideration bothered any of the

B. H. Lamphear, Osakis furni-

explosion nearly blew his large
Studebaker sedan from the road.
He, in company with his wife, was
driving along a smooth stretch of
road when they were nearly raised
from the seat from the conclusion
of an explosion, which occurred on
the left side of the car. Small
stones were driven through the
front fender, a hole was blown
through the side of the exhaust
pipe and the radius rod was bent.
Mr.. Lamphear said that he would
probably never know what hap
pened, but thought that he had
driven over some kind of explosive
that let loose as the wheel struck
it. The damage done was esti-
mated at about $75.

Robert and Herman Englemann
and their families, of Bertha, met
with serious auto accident, on the
detour between Albany and Free
port, last Saturday afternoon. They
were on their way to Lester Prai-
RE for an over Sunday visit with
relatives. The accident occurred at
a sharp turn, when the large Will
lys-Knight sedan turned turtle
and remained wheels up on it's top.
At first it was thought that the
baby of Mr.. and Mrs. Herman En-
gelmann was seriously injured,
however, it was found that it had
only suffered minor scratches and
cuts. Later reports stated that
Robert Engelmann was seriously
injured and it was thought that he
had suffered several broken bones.
The other occupants of the car re-
ceived severe shaking up and mi

COMMUNIST PAPER IS AGAINST 'LINDY"

One of the few publications in the United
States which withholds praise from Charles Lind
bergh is the national organ of the Communist Party,
the Daily Worker, of New York, says the National
Republic in its current ISSUE 1t attacks Lndbergh
"for lending his name" to commercial aviation, un-
der which it says the United States is disgusting
its war preparations" and adds: ellis refusal of
the hundress of thousands of dollars offered by
movie magnates was prompted by guarantees of
far greater amount from the war mongers" The
Daily Worker calls attention to the fact that
''panes manufactured in socalled commercial plants
are as useful for dropping bombs upon armies,
ships and unarmed populations as planes manufac-
tured under the direction of the United States
army"
Lndbergh, adds the Daily Worker, "is the tool
of Wall Street and every worker should under
stand his role and refuse to be deceived by the
propaganda of exploiters who want to
as cannon fodder in order that they may exploit
the rest of the world" In view of the fact that
these lines were written the announcement issued
from Russia that nationwide movement was in
progress to vastly increase the soviet aerial fleet and
that further steps in the authorization of the
try had been taken, and the further fact that the
soviet government and its agents in the United
States have sworn the overthrow of the United
States government, the animus of this attitude by
the Daily Worker is readily apparent.

One of the most prolific things Frank Day does
is to make recommendations to all political parties.
Frank has been Democrat since the good old days
of '96 when he editorially recommended that all
men who were not for the free coinage of silver
at the Bryan ratio of 16 to 1, be Hshot at sun
rise" He may have changed this recommendation
later to 'faf shot" If his party dominates genial
al Smith, governor of New York, as the standard
bearer next year the Herald wonders where Frank
will land.

Were he a king upon a throne h.,
could not well be honored more, but
he would like TO be alone as in the
happy days of yore. He'd like to walk
q. rood or verst upon a lonely thor
oughfare, and not hear frenzied peans
burst upon the palpitating air. He'd
like to walk some quiet street. all in

great big things are nearly always
modest jays: they do not care to walk
with Kings or listen to wild Whoops Of
praise. The lyman at the county fair,
who does his stunt at half past three,
and pulls gymnastics in the air, AMI
sails around poplar tree, will hit n
high and kingly pose when he descends
