Something to worry about: where all the
airplanes to be parked?

Grove Patterson includes Billy Sunday in a
list of SERIOUS thinkers" Billy doesn't think
he emotes-and exhales.

Too bad that the very fellows who should
have heard Sam Haislet's report what the
state editors are doing for themselves, were the
very fellows who stayed home.

Minneapolis is a bit hard up too. The 9TH
er day the Board of Education had to borrow
100000 to side over" until taxes are distribut-
ed in May This budget business is bit nerve
racking.

Faderewski travels light. All he does is to
carry with him chef, two porters, transporta-
ton manager, tour manager, valet, mas
seur, wife with maid and secretary, and
Steinway grand piano. There are also a few
pieces of hand luggage

The Minnesota Editorial Association has had
some mighty good presidents in the past and it
is going to have some more in the future, but it
will never have who put over any bet
ter program than the Vim Weber put over.
That program will never be excelled. We doubt
if it will ever be equaled.

Mrs Emma Hill Perkins, president of the
Minnesota Federation of Business and Profess
sional Women, told the Mortified convention
last week this: "The unemployed woman the
one whose mind is not occupied with wholesome
thinking should be watched with care for that
class can damage society more than any other"
How we'll the average small town knows the
truth of Mrs Perkins words.

Answering the Gazette's question of few
weeks ago as to how Shipstead was going to file
as Republican, Herman Roe says he ISN'T go
ing to. "Shipstead could not afford to, nor is
he the type that would stultify himself by trying
to file as Republican-and that is what he
would be doing if he tried to sail under false
colors." Herman is like a colored Boy passing
the cemetery after dark-whistling to keep up
his courage. No good Republican wants Ship
stead to file as "a member of the G. o. P. and
Herman is no exception to that classification.

Anybody who thinks the Izaak Walton
League is "just bunch of sports" wants to
stand to one side and watch them function in
the state political fracas during the next several
weeks. Believing that Lowden is against con-
servation because Backus is against conserva-
ton and for Lowden, the League is lining up all
the other conservationist organizations and get
ting ready for the fray. The united list pre-
sents formidable front to the Lowden forces.

Listen to this: at is my hope that we may
be rich without forgetting to be righteous; that
we may have leisure without license; that we
may be powerful without being extensively
preasd; that we may be nationally minded with
out being narrow minded, and finally that we
may live in a world of fast without surrendering
our faith" Such fine philosophy-fine enough
to have formed part of the prayer you may or
may not have heard your minister say last Sum-
day. And the uttering it is no less hard
headed business man than Mr.. Taylor, the head
of the American Bankers Association.

On the Mojava desert, where this is
written, the "trade rat" queer little
man-like creature collects all sorts of
things useless to him. He brings odds
and ends into your shack, taking other
odds and ends away, hence his name.
Have you considered the collecting
habits of your fellow man? The most
powerful, at this moment, collect sur
plus million of dollars and think money
in banks makes them great. 1t only
makes them nervous.-Arthur Brisbane.
Not nearly nervous. Arthur, as having no
money there. We know whereof we speak.

thought for each one of US who is prone
to Judge the world and hold our own homes and
our own families immaculate is given in the fol
lowing little clipping from the Duluth Herald
of few weeks ago.
"Hickman's insanity" case is run
ming pretty thin. His attorney has
collected all he could find about queer
ness" in the boys family, and of course
he found some. But he could find some
in his own family, or in any family.
There are few families, if any, in which
there are not or were not q few uncles
or aunts or grandparents who had queer
ways, even some who were perhaps call
ed "nutty," or whatever the slang phase
| for it was in their time"
