The Democrats seem to be having difficulty
in determining whether they are wet or dry.
Now, the Republicans

Henry Ford says his success is due to the
fact that he has been able to assemble tools.
Perhaps part of Henrys achievement is due to
the fact that he kept the neighbors from bor-
rowing his tools after he got them assembled.
1t so happens that the boy who walled for
long pants a few years ago is now happiest when
he parades his manly beauty in pair of sloppy
and utterly ungraceful knickers. And how he
used to hate the "long stockings" which he now
adores! Changeableness is not wholly q femin-
inc characteristic.
There is one thought which every citizen
of every town should always bear in mind It
is this. The same train which brought them to
their place of residence will take them away
whenever they become dissatisfied with the town
that they feel they must 4knock" it. No COM
munity was ever improved by knocking. Boost
ing will accomplish much more.-Sleepy Eye

London Tit-bits gives this which is SO far
as we know the very latest of the thrifty Scot
sman" stories.
Tombstones in cemetery at Aber-
deem, Scotland, are used one side by
one family and on the other by another

It's an old superstition that if a
black cat crosses your path, bad luck
will follow. Sunday morning black
bear crossed the road ahead of our car,
and we had three flat tires that day.
However, the thrill one gets in seeing a
real bruin in his wild state galloping out
of the way of an automobile, offsets the
increased likelihood of debated tires
August Erickson.
What August needs is not so much relief
from the world-old superstition as set of new
tires. If black bear could cause three flats,
think what black elephant would do. And Min
nesota is a marvellous state where such thing
as meeting one of the big fellows might happen
at any time-even to one of having Augustus tenn
perate habits.
Mrs. Winnifred Campbell of Slayton, state
chairwoman of the Republican party, has a lot
of good common-sense plans for interesting the
women of the state in the coming election of
Herbert Hoover. Believing that women are much
interested in Mr. Hoover's election and will
greatly profit by the things his administration
will bring about, Mrs. Campbell is urging the
women to do their utmost to assure that election
She realizes that education is nccessary-not
that women may 'vote as intelligently as the
men" but that they may vote intellgently
With that in mind she is organizing the state in
to little informal groups-not for the sake of
organization but for the easier dissemination of
necessary information. By her plans groups of
neighbor women will meet to ask questions of
some one who is informed-to discuss and to sat
isfy their own political curiosity. It is an adj
mirable plan-that all the women of neighbor-
hood shall meet on some shady porch of an af-
ternoon and talk real things instead of neghbor-
hood gossip. Such meetings may educate the
women in several ways besides just politically.
Mrs. Campbell will want the help of every
thoughtful woman of voting age We hope she
gets it.
D. L. Keith, editor of the Cottonwood County
Citizen, asks mighty pertinent questions
