STRANGER KILLED BY
TRAIN NEAR WASECA

No Identification has been made of
the stranger who was struck and
killed by the C. & N. w. east bound
passenger train at Waseca Sunday ev-
ening, for there were no marks of
Identification on his person. The en-
gineer stated that he saw the man
walk down the track, that he blew
the whistle and that the man appar-
emily saw the train. When the en-
CINE came near, the man stepped onto
the tracks and into the path of the

instantly.

Town Tax Situation Serious.

From nearly every section of the
country come reports of towns and
some counties facing a serious situa-
ton with respect to taxation and may
go bankrupt, in the opinion of Mark
Graves, State tax commissioner of
the State of New York.
Addressing a conference of asses
sors, supervisors and municipal Off
Gals of Allegany county at Belmont,
N. Y, a few days ago, Mr.. Graves
pointed out that many rural commun-
tiles are steadily losing population and
that the tax burden is becoming in
creasingly difficult for them.
"a serious problem in this state is
that of deciding what to do about tax
alton. in the poorer counties and the
smaller towns" the Commissioner
said. eve cannot go on as we are.
Unless we change our methods, some
counties and some towns within coun-
ties will continue to lose population
and grow poorer. The time may come
when they will be bankrupt"
AS a means of relief he suggested
that wherever possible school districts
be consolidated as one means of re-
ducing taxation for local units, and
that the state pay the entire cost OF
highways and eventually take over
most of the costs of the public school
system.

Der list, and pursue game or destroy
the nests or eggs thereof, under a pen
atty of not less than $500 nor more
than 500 for each and every offense.
The game division of the Conserva-
ton Department of Maryland, as has
been it's policy during the past several
years, has completed the distribution
of 1917 cotton-tail rabbits and 6501
bob-white quail in the covers of the
State, during February and March, for
propagation purposes, therefore it be-
comes very essential that the public
owning dogs should comply with the
law quoted herein and assist in pro-
tecting these animals and game birds
so that 100 per cent propagation may
result from this brood stock.
"The greatest calamity" says bull
letin received this morning from the
game department, "to our cotton-tail
rabbits at this season of the year are
the dogs and cats running at large.
They destroy more game than the
sportsmen, therefore we appeal to all
dog owners and request them to keep
/ their dogs either under leash or in
closed lat least on their own proper
ty), March list to September list, and
also keep your cats at home and coop
crate with us in compelling others to
follow your example. The agricul-
tural interests receive more benefit
from the presence of bob-white quail
on their property than any other bird
which inhabits our covers, and should
be interested in trying their utmost
to preserve this species of game bird
in every manner possible. Therefore,
by keeping their dogs and cats out of
the covers, not only the sportsmen but
the agriculturalists will be greatly
benefited by such action.
at is impossible to propagate game
100 per cent in covers where dogs and
cats are allowed to run at large and
continually destroying same 365 days
and nights in the year, and if the pub
lie will cooperate with US in seeing
that this dog law is enforced we as
sure you the fall season of 1928 will
show a general increase in our upland
game. A mother rabbit has not one
chance in a hundred to escape from
dogs pursuing her at this season OF
the year. The nesting bob-white quail
have not one chance in a hundred of
escaping vermin which destroy their
nests and eggs, and the roaming cat
is one of their worst enemies, there
fore we personally solicit the coopera
ton of the public in general in this
important matter"

EVERY TASK A MINISTRY

EVERY TASK A MINISTRY
| Cor 12:4-6. Now there are diversi-
ties of gifts, but the same spirit.
And there are diversities of minis
trations, and the same Lord. And
there are diversities of workings,
but the same God who worketh all
things in all.
There are diversities of gifts
While it is true that all souls are of
equal Importance in the sight of God,
and every citizen is entitled to equal
rights in our democracy, it is also
|. true that no two human beings are
exactly alike. Nature has endowed
us with differing talents and abilities.
And in the great scheme of things
there is for each of US some task
which we are better qauifed to do
than any other. If we find that task,
we find satisfaction in doing it; we
have in our hands the key to happi-
ness. But if we are trying to do the
other fellows job, to which we are not
temperamentally adjusted, each day
is apt to be tale of annoyance and
mistakes.
Thomas Cadyle said: BLESSED is
the man who finds his work; let him
seek no other blessedness."
"And there are diversities of minis
trations." Every man and woman
who is rendering genuine and useful
service to the physical or mental or
spiritual needs of his fellow-men may
truly regard himself as being min
lister. Strictly speaking, there is no
single profession which can be called
''the" ministry. For "there are diver
sites of ministrations." Every voca-
ton ought to be ministry. Every
man, whatever the labor of his hand or
brain, ought to be able to say, 81 am
not doing this work simply to make
money for myself. am rendering a
service to the community. am min
istering to the life of the world"
If you cannot say that about your
work, you had better quit and get an
other job.
"There are diversities of gifts, but
the same Spirit" No two gifts are
just alike; yet all are of equal i'm
portance. Every man has his nee
essary part to play in the great
game of life. And no man has any
right proudly to look down upon an
other engaged in a so-called "hum-
bier" trade. Snobbery is the mark of
fools. The Carpenter of Nazareth
was just as divine as the Teacher of
Galilee.
The only man or woman who ought
to be ashamed is the man or woman
who is not engaged in genuine, bona
fide labor for the welfare of the world
Whether he be poor or rich, the per-
son who is not rendering vital SER
vice to society in return for the ben
efits derived from society, is a moral
hobo, a parasite upon the life of the
community.
