A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
(By S. w. Straus)

No one, at the beginning of life,
ever expects to fail. The lamp of
hope burns brightly when one is
young. But hope alone cannot bring
success. There must be concrete ac-
ton along right lines. Steadily, step
by step, the desired ends must be at
tanned Where there is persistent eff
fort with freedom from wrongful
methods of conduct and living, there
can be no such thing as ultimate fail
ure.
Thrift keeps one constantly within
the bounds of prudent living. Failure
in a general way, moral soundness, as
we'll as economic stability, therefore,
are inevitable accomplishments Of
thrift practice.
Thrift is a character tonic. It
develops the will and strengthens the
moral fibre. Through it one is better
able to forego those habits of life
that are harmful. 1t equips US both
for the temptations and the vicissi-
tudes of life.
No man can practice thrift without
being not only Independent financi-
ally, but better citizen in general.
1t is these aspects of thrift which
should appeal strongly to parents and
to all persons engaged in educational
duties.
Let us send forth our young men
and our young women into the world
with a thorough appreciation of the
moral as we'll as the material values
of thrift.
Success in life is not to be meas
ured by material standards, but by
moral ones.
Learn the value of thrift. No bet
ter safeguard against failure can be
provided than such an equipment.

TRAFFIC FOLLOWS
THE PAVED ROUTES

Automobile traffic through Prince
ton is much less this season than it
was last year, according to the Prince
ton Union, which says that the mo-
florists are choosing the paved routes
in preference to the gravel surfaced
scenic highways, despite the fact by
so doing they miss one of the finest
scenic drives in northern Minnesota,
that along the west shore of Mile
Laos lake.
The Minnesota Highway department
took it's annual traffic census last
week, and when the returns are tab
ulated, it will reveal whether the
same situation prevails in other parts
| of the state. 1t is quite apparent
that traffic on the paved routes is
| growing rapidly, says highway bull
letin, although there are not many
places where there is an actual de-
crease in traffic on the gravel roads.
Minnesota now has about 1000
miles of pavement, says the bulletin,
which is much less than Wisconsin,
Illinois, Iowa and other neighbors
south and east of us have. But it is
| fortunate that what pavement Mime
| sofa has is placed on routes where it
serves a comparatively large pro-
| portion of the car owners of the state
If it were not for the relief given
| by these paved routes, some of the
| parallel gravel routes would be so
overburdened by traffic that they
| would be almost untravelable.
The traffic shift reported by the
| Princeton Union is evidence of the
| changed attitude of motorists toward
gravel or pavement. A few years
| ago most motorists said they would
rather drive on gravel than concrete.
Some of them still think so, when
they are sure of a good gravel road.
But many of the gravel routes which
were very good a few years ago, now
carry so much more traffic that it is
| impossible to keep them smooth.
A large percentage of travel is
| business travel. But whether it is
| business or pleasure, motorists are
more and more planning trips and
going regardless of weather condi-
tions. So they take the pavements,
| for they know they are the same rain

CHAPTER XII
The River Bridge.


It was two hours yet to opening
time. He unlocked the front door of
the hall, crossed the room to his
office, unlocked the door, entered,
locked 1t behind him. sat down at his
desk, unlocked 1t, and pulled open a
drawer in which he kept his stock Of
ammunition. Besides the boxes Of
cartridges and cleaning implements
there were in 1t two cartridge belts
and two Colts revolvers. There was
still daylight enough for his purpose.
and Selwood. taking first his own
gun and In turn the two guns In the
drawer, began the task Of taking
down, cleaning. and assembling the
three.
1t gave him plenty Of time to think.
Warning had come-his defiance had
answered it-at least, for John Sell
wood. He had been told what to ex-
pect; he had said how he should meet
it; there remained only the question
of how far twelve cartridges loaded
into two guns expressly for this oc-
casion would carry him after the
opening shot.
1t was too much to hope that he
should live to fire them all, and he
fell to specializing on how many
loaded cartridges would be found In
the two guns when they picked him
up. It enraged him to think Of being
cornered by Vigilantes; and escape
now was so easy-and always there
was Christie in the background Of
his thinking. But his word had been
passed-whether foolishly or not, was
beside the question. He had told the
"real estate boomers" where they
would find him.

Federal government in watching
over the business of the nation. The
principal task confronting this agen-
cy is the current investigation of the
so-called "power-trust." 1t was be-
lieved at the outset of the inquiry
that the commission would present
political dynamite during the cleo
lions. 1t now appears that the work
of collecting and digesting the data
is too great to permit reports for po-
litical purposes. The study of the
financial features of the public util-
tiles will not be completed until the
end of the fiscal year, which is sew
eral months of the new administra-
ton.
The average consumer has paid
little heed to the struggle of mer-
chandising giants which is waged be-
fore his eyes. The Federal Trade
Commission has been directed and

Mobile in the Arctic regions, and who
himself was stranded on the ice floes
when he returned for more of Mobiles

United States to deliver lectures about
his experiences. An invitation has
also been extended to the Swedish
Lieutenant Schyberg-the rescuer of
Lundborg. The two flyers have not

advices from Stockholm are to the

Inger Rynning Pedestrienne.
Miss Inger Rynning, 23-year old
newspaper reporter in Oslo, Norway,
a few days ago arrived in Turin,
Italy, having walked all the way from
her home town. She is not trying to
establish any records, but simply feels
that she sees more of the countries
through which she passes, by walking
than if she travelled in any other
way. Her plan is to take ship from
Naples to New York and then to walk
through parts Of the United States,
but she says that the distances are so
great in America that it will be ne
cessary for her to accept lift
from passing motorists once in a
while. The young lady writes CORE
spondences for some of the papers in
her home country about her adven-
lures.

Theodore Christensen, mayor OF
Red Lake Falls, Mimi, is spending a

career as an inspiring example to
young Danes. He went to the United
States about 15 years ago, without
much money, without friends or pull
here, and in the course of few years
he has become one of the most widely
known creamery men in the northwest
and the head of a creamery whose

friend, and after a few conventional
passes opened the one subject of his
visit with an abrupt question. "Dave,
how much do you figure you've got in
our Sleepy Cat place? Whatever it
is" he continued, as Tracy disclaimed
any equitable interest in the hall that
Selwood had paid for, "I'll trade you
my interest In the Thief River mine
for your interest up at Sleepy Cat.
Tracy was taken aback. "What you
tryin' to doT he asked presently.
"Rob me or rob yourself? The mines
worth half dozen of our Sleepy Cat
outfit"
Then" said Selwood definitely,
''the halls mine and the mines yours.
Is it a go?"
"Why, If you want it that way, yes
lit Is"
"All right. That's settled. Carpy,"
continued Selwood, thinks this place
is getting too noisy for you, Dave.
All these squatters coming in, and the
clatter they make. He says you'll do
better out under the pines few miles
up river, and I've got things arranged
to get you up there today. The
weather's settled now, and I've got
time to move you-what do you say
We start today?"
81 know where I'm comfortable, bet
ter than Carpy does. I'll stay here"
Selwood, with patience, continued
to dwell on the advantages Of country
life. But the old soldier resisted all
Establishments, and In the end his
patience gave out first. "Look here,
john" he exclaimed with q snap Of
disgust, you're beating round the
bush, like these crooked Sleepy Cat
lawyers. 1 know what's going on, If
] am fat on my back. The Vigilantes
are ready to move. Where did you get
the idea I was afraid of Vigilantes?"
Selwood shrugged his shoulders.
"Where did you get the idea I thought
you were?"
"Well, you're trying to ship me out
Of town-you and Carpy. Now, John,
I'm not going-that's fiat-not for all
the Vigilantes in the Rocky noun
tains."
AS Tracy uttered his declaration,
Bill Pardaloe, like q huge camel,
stuck his head within the tent. Sell
wood, paying no further attention to
the intruder, vainly tried In low tones
to persuade Tracy it would be sheer
folly to remain where he was. BE
