In loving remembrance Of our dear hus-
band and father. John II. roole. who
departed this life one year ago, October
5th, 1927.
Just year ago today
Our loved one was called away.
God took you home, it was His WILL
But in our hearts you're living still.
You suffered hours, yes hours of pain.
To wait for cure. but all in vain.
Till God alone knew what was best,
He called you home to give you rest.
Gone dear husband, gone forever,
How we miss your smiling face.
BIT you left us to remember
None on earth can take your place
A happy home we once enjoyed,
How sweet the memory still,
But death has left loneliness
That the world can never fill
No one knows our longing.
But few have seen us weep.
We shed our tears from aching hearts
While Others are fast asleep.
BY his wife and children.
In loving memory Of our dear brother
Frederick S Crown. who died one year ago
October 5th. 1927.
At home on the beautiful hills of God.
By the valley of rest so fair.
Some day. some where. when our task
is done.
With joy we shall meet him there.
Tis sweet to remember him who was here,
Though absent from us he is just as dear.
Thy purpose. Lord, we may not see.
But all is well that is done by Thee
Oh, how sweet it will be in the beautiful
land
So free from all sorrow and pain.
With songs on our lips and with harps in
our hands,
70 meet our loved one again.
By his sisters.

WASHINGTON LETTER
CONTINUED from Page u

their candidates openly espouse a
movement for some distinguished gen.
tleman in their district in order to
pay off some of the debts, financial
or otherwise, incurred in their own
campaigns for high office. They
know that this method pleases the
vanity of their rich hackers and at
nothing in political responsibility.
A large number of Senators and
Representatives have returned to
Washington preparatory to the open
ing of the Congressional session a
fortnight hence. There is handful
of newcomers elected for the unex-
pired terms of Legislators who have
either resigned or have been called
by death. These newcomers will ac-
count for few changes in the men,
bership of various committees in the
second session of the Seventeen Con-
gress. The first committee meeting
will be held within a few days by
subcommittee of the House Com
mittee on Appropriations, which has
the responsibility for framing fiscal
legislation. There are numerous
supply bills which must pass by
March 4, in order that the government
may function during the fiscal year of
1929, which begins July 1. More than
three billion dollars of the taxpayers
money is annually expended under au-
thorizations approved by these COM
mittees and subsequently affirmed by
the Congress.
Already the Congressional mania for
Investigations is cropping out. Par
liamentary rules are such that many
Legislators are seldom afforded an OPP
portunity to gain publicity by speech
es in the Senate and House. They
find the answer in fighting for places
on important investigating committees
in which publicity is the foremost
consideration. Trained observers
watching political Washington from be-
hind the scenes claim that the princi-
pal shortcomings of legislative in
vestigations are the wild scramble of
the committee members for promi-
nent parts in news accounts. The
main object of the investigation is
often overlooked when individual
members of Investigating committees
issue mimeographed statements as to
their particular opinions for the ben
eft of the press. Another drawback
in investigations is the fact that they
are usually staged too late for the
benefit of the government or the pub
lie. These Congressional inquiries
may be compared to the farmer who
locked the barn door after the horse
was stolen.

HINTS ON HEALTH
prepared and Furnished by the
Public Health Education
Committee of Minnesota
State Medical ASSN.

tuberculosis in teen age is one Of
the most urgent problems in health
work today. DR.. E. A. Meyerding, ex-
ecutive secretary of the Minnesota
Public Health Association, points out
in his Annual Report just released
for publication. Reviewing the ac-
tivities financed by Christmas Seals
during the past year, DR.. Meyerding
also mentioned problems of the future.
New activities reported during the
past year include rehabilitation and
placement service for ex-sanatorium
patients, and short courses in tubercu-
losis for physicians. Extension of the
regular program of clinics, public
health nursing, publicity, and distri-
button of health literature is also re-
ported.
Eleven counties had case-finding
studies conducted by nurses for the
purpose of finding unsupported cases
of tuberculosis; approximately 5000
men, women, and children were ex-
amined at clinics throughout the
state; 1898 boys and girls were CIV
en- health inspections by nurses from
the state association; $4,000 children
were enrolled in the Modern Health
Crusade, total of $4,000 copies of
the Northwestern Health Journal, Of
fetal publication of the Minnesota
Public Health Association, were sent
to homes and schools throughout the
state, and thousands of pamphlets and
posters on various health subjects
were distributed.
Among the special activities Christ
mas Seals provided in some of the
communities were: Fresh Air camps,
dental clinics, nutrition classes, and
a boarding home for ex-sanatorium
patients.
In stating that the prevalence OF
tuberculosis among girls of teen age
promises to be one of the most i'm
portant problems of the next five
years, DR.. Meyerding states in his re-
port:
Twice as many girls as boys be-
tween the ages of fifteen and nine
teen died in Minnesota in the past five
years. This situation seems COM
mon all through the United States. 1t
points to need for study of the causes
and a general campaign of education
in building up resistance of our chill
dren, so that they do not break in
adolescence"

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By S. w. Strauss.

''The first and best victory is to
conquer SELF" said Plato. ITO be con-
quered by self is, of all things, the
most shameful and VILE"
The first step in thrift is ito con-
quer SELF" Until this self-conquest
has been made we will never change
our habits for the better.
We may realize the folly of waste
fulness and extravaganza. We may
wish that we might get out of the way
of always being behind financially.
We may realize in the honesty of our
own hearts that we are doing our
selves a grave injustice by the neb-
lect of our physical well being. We
may know that we are allowing golden
opportunities for self-improvement
and advancement to be neglected. We
may have a clear viewpoint of all of
these attitudes. But until we apply
the Platonian test to our rules on con-
duct, we are conquered by self"
which is "of all things, the most
shameful and VILE"
Perhaps we have not thought all
the way through these personal prob
lens. In neglecting to save money
or practice other phases of thrift, we
have not realized, possibly, the great
harm being done to ourselves mentally
and spiritually. We have thought only
of the material phases.
1t is we'll for us in this fast and
fascinating era to listen across the
ages of the voice of Plato, reminding
us of the glory of victory over self
and the shame of a conquest won by
our own follies.
Those who practice thrift may rest
assured that not all the values ac-
cruing to them can be measured in
terms of dollars. They may find in
spiration in the concept that they are
gaining what is more priceless than
gold-a strong character, sturdy
will.

Of his features. Selwood with va

else Will approve of 1t, that's cinch.
This buck has tried his blamedest to

Scott the moment the door of his
room closed behind them, "Meg, out
there, Is the wife of this hound Star
buck. You didn't know it; I didn't
nobody around here knew it. I can't
tell you everything she told me to-
night-if I stopped to, they'd have
Starbuck hanged before L got down

"Well," he continued, as he listened
to their protests of loyalty with an
ungrudging assent, 81 thought maybe
you would. Now call in Meg"
Scott opened the door, and Margar-
ct Hyde, looking questioningly from
one to the other, as If to read her
fate In their eyes, stepped inside, and
the door was closed behind her. Sell
wood spoke again. "Starbuck and
Big Haynes" he said to her, "are tied
up and locked in the harness-room at
the barn. Lefever's men are guard
ing them. I'll 60 down with you all
and take care Of Lefever. He'll call
off his men and leave me to look
after my prisoner. Bob, you cut Star
buck loose. McAlpin, you have horses
saddled at the back door of the barn,
and, Bob will ride with Meg and-him
to the east end Of town. Nobody" he
spoke now to Margaret Hyde, twill
