One more reason for avoiding forest fires;
an authority announces that thousands of fish
are killed from potash leeched from ashes and
drained into the lakes after each fire. That's one
brand new argument for the Izaak Walton
League.
We wish we were as sure of everything else
we want to have come true are that Julius
Schmahl will be reelected State Treasurer with
his usual big majority. Julius is like the girl
who makes good marriage set
tied for the rest of his life"
Poor Dad is having heaps of trouble. His
most recent worry comes from the fact that now
that the price of haircuts has gone down Ma and
the girls are all for letting their locks grow. A
few months ago, when barbering was skyhigh
they all insisted upon hobs. One perturbed "Pa"
editor asks CANT that just like woman"-and
we feel it is.
The Minneapolis Tribune proudly boasts that
grass is not growing in the streets of that city.
Sometimes, as the country visitor is bumped over
those streets in taxi or bus he is rather of the
opinion that good crop of grass might be pre-
ferable to SO many humps and hillocks. Mime
apolis may boast of being the metropolis of the
northwest, but she had best not get naughty
about the condition of her streets either paved or
unpaved.
'Its just as we'll to withhold mean
thoughts until tomorrow, but kind
thoughts had better be expressed to-

It's even better to send them by special de-

there quicker.
Nothing makes writer sore
to read something good that he himself
has thought of thousand times and
never had sense enough to write it down.
Dawson Sentinel
You're wrong. The thing that makes writ
er CD really is to have good idea, write
it sloppily, and then reread it, written as it
should be written, in some ones else publication
That is the time said alleged writer paws the
air, pulls his hair and curses alike his Incidence
and his stupidity.
The Duluth Herald complains about
the number of her "dreadfully poor
citizens" who befoul that fair city by
scattering rubbish of all kinds. Luz
has her share of the same brand
of citizens who dump their garbage
everywhere but the proper place, and
who throw out their tin cans, paper,
etc., and permit them to blow their
neighbors' property and about the
streets. Our esteemed namesake says
that Duluth manifestly has some cti-
zens who would improve the community
very much by moving out" We hate to
admit it, but this also is true here
Luverne Herald.
Almost any town could recommend few
removals of this sort-or possibly even one or
two middle class funerals.
Carl Eastwood, editor of the lie Sueur News
Herald spends three-thirds of his time in WASH
ington. He evidently talked recently with Con-
gresham Frank Clague-and then Carl wrote
this for his paper:
1T will surprise second district peo-
pie to know that for once Congressman
Frank Clague was "up in the air." but
it will surprise them more to know he
was soon out of the air and down to the
bottom of the sea. He was guest of
the Navy, and flew over to Hampton
Roads, and there had the delightful,
thrilling experience of going to the bot
tom of the sea in a submarine. He
said he experienced very little thrill in
the "sub." he could not tell by the
action of the boat whether he was 60
ing down or coming up, but the airplane
made his hair, both of them, stand up
and look wild. The plane has a speed
record of 140 miles per hour, and he
thinks itsexceeded the limit quite bit.
Since descending to earth Mr.. Clague
speaks of his thrilling experience with
quite bit of composure"
In praise Of women it is written by
somebody interested in the automobile
business that women choosing their
motor cars with less assistance from
anybody than ever before. 1t is said
they now demand more than appearance
and style. They lifting the hoods

Torrance. But it ought to be said that
