The Quality Dentfrice Removes Film from Teeth
The Sauk Centre herald., 1928-12-13

The amendment diverting one-third of the gas
ta.> in Minnesota from the trunk highways to the
county aid roads will result in serious handicap
for trunk line construction unless the tax is in
creased.
In discussing the matter Thursday evening
Mr.. Babcock said that while the attorney general
had not ruled the question it was very probable
that the diversion would start Immediately follow
ing the certifcation of the passage of the amend
ment by the state election board. If the tax is in
creased to cents by the incoming legislature it
will be several months before the law is operative
and the state will receive less money from the
gas tax in 1929 than they did in 1928.
Probably no section of Minnesota appreciates
the efficiency of the Highway department under Mr..
Babcock than the residents of Sauk Centre, as
this city is the junction point of three trunk line
highways, Nos. 3, and %. No. is paved in and
out of the city; No. is completed to the north be-
tween Sauk Centre and Long Prairie, and No. %
is splendid highway between Little Falls, Sauk
Centre and Glenwood.
At every opportunity the people of this COM
munity have shown their faith in Mr.. Babcock, and
we are convinced that they will continue to back
this splendid official and his program of develop
ment of better highways.
The average citizen does not realize the total
number of miles travelled by Minnesota cars in one
years time. Dec. there were 672,764 motor
hcles registered in Minnesota. With the average of
5000 miles per the total mileage of Minnesota
owned autos in 1928 will be approximately $685.
100000 miles.
Another interesting fact brought out at Thurs
day evenings meeting was that the three cities of
the frst-class Minneapolis, st. Paul and Duluth
pay 45 per cent of the automobile and gasoline
taxes Under the amendment establishing the
highway department its present basis passed
in 1920 the trunk line highways actually stop at
the city limits of these cities although routed
through them. These routes are maintained by
Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth, but not cent
Of the motor vehicle gas taxes used on these
trunk routes within the cities.
If anyone has any objection to an increase in
gas taxes it would be the residents of the three
cities, and they are benefciaries as they use the
trunk lines in and out of their cities very largely,
of course.

dress delivered by Mr.. Babcock at Long Prairie.
Every is urged to read and study it as the in
formation contained is invaluable.

"For these reasons" he said,
"it seems to me that some place
should be provided in the hills
within easy striking distance of
Washington where the president
might go for two or three days ct
a time when he was so disposed
with conveniences for entertaining
members of the government and
other guests, where he could have
that freedom of action which he
has only at the White House, and
were he could get a complete
change of atmosphere.

tion of the mistress of the White
House she is, of course, to be con-
sidered. The public little under
stands the very exacting duties
she must perform and the restric-
tive life she must lead. Fully as
much as the president, she needs
the opportunity for a change and
some place where she can have the
seclusion of the White House with
out a constant reminder of its OBJ
legations.
He declared such a residence
would not be in a strict sense a
summer White House, but added
eff such a place had been pro-
vided / should not have desired to
leave Washington so early in the
season or return so late. Being
distant from the capital for con-
siderable length of time each sum-
mer is attended with a good many

running into the White House."

While federal and state fish

millions of trout, bass, crappies,

of all these enterprises is not suf-

insure fisherman reasonable

done by the federal and state
hatcheries, many sportsmen's clubs
of the country and individuals have
undertaken to hatch and rear fish
in cooperation with the federal and
state governments. In some in
stances complete Matching plants
have been established where fish
eggs are Matched and the young

The receipts of butter on the

kets, Chicago, Boston, New York,

heavier Monday to Friday last
week than were the same days of
the previous week. There has been
little increase in actual production
of milk and butter in the Central
West. Buying of butter in the
East for consuming trade has been
restricted to current require
ments. There has been little buy

tone of the market has lost some

fraught with hazards due to care
lessness in the use of Christmas

and other inflammable materials.
The following recommendations
were suggested by Brown toward
making Christmas free. of danger:
Use electric lights wherever
possible to replace candles.
When used place candles SO
that they will not ignite the tree.
Do not place the tree near
stove or close to gas jet.
Do not use cotton under the
tree as make-believe snow.
Remove all curtains from win
dows which contain lighted can
dies.
Churches, schools and other
public meeting places should be
especially careful in the use of
Christmas trimmings.
Remove all decorations of an
infammable nature Immediately
after the celebration. The tree
becomes more dangerous as dry
ness adds to it's inf1ammability.
Chow much more happiness
and joy would we experience dur
ing the celebration" Brown said,

follow no pain, suffering or fatal
tiles due to fire casualties"

MINNESOTA CITIZENS ACTUALLY PAYING
INCREASED GAS TAX

Thursday evening Commissioner Babcock ex-
planned highway problems to an audience of about
400 at the auditorium in the Public School build
ing, Long Prairie. Men present from almost
every section of Todd county, Sauk Centre, and
Morrison and Wadena counties
Mr.. Babcock was rendered an informal dinner
at the Rechert hotel presided by Rudolph Lee.
The Long Prairie editor also introduced Mr.. Bah
cock at the meeting.
The increase of the gas tax is question
which is honestly troubling many of the citizens of
the state.
Mr.. Babcock called attention to the fact that
Iowa and Wisconsin are paying Scent gas tax
and South Dakota cents; Minnesota's tax is 2
cents. Yet the price for gasoline in Minnesota is
no lower than it is in the three states mentioned.
All of them will ask for an increase in gas tax at
the coming session of their legislatures The only
conclusion which be drawn Is that Minnesota
has been paying the tax right along but that the
difference, quite tidy sum, by the way, has gone
into the Golfers of the large oil companies.
The average automobile owned in Minnesota
travels about 5000 per year. Assuming that the
average travels Is miles gallon of gas
oine, the present gas tax costs the average owner
$7.70 per year. Better highways rapidly decrease
the operating costs of the and gas consumption
and in much the average citizen is paying just
as much for his gasoline the citizen residing in
adjoining states who pay higher gas tax an in
crease to cents in Minnesota would not work
hardship.
