inventor sent this message to the National Electric
Light Association:
when invented the incandescent lamp rea-
lized that the lamp alone was not enough. 1t was
necessary also to perfect system OF electric gene

develop it, and it makes me happy to know that the

FOURTH OF JULY DEATHS

Associated Press reports indicate that l59 per-
sons met violent deaths on July this year, being
As less than the national holiday year ago.
Only fatalities due to fireworks.
Drownngs and automobile accidents were re-
sponsible for the greatest number OF deaths, the
former showing decrease and the latter an in
crease.
Of course, all these deaths can not be attributed
to the fact that July holiday, as there are
good many accidental deaths every day. but 1t seems
inevitable that large number of persons must lose
their lives in the pursuit of holiday pleasure
Automobiles took toll of 70 lives, an increase
of 16 over July year. In spite of all the warn
ngs that may be given, the motoring public appears
strangely Indifferent to the frightful loss of life
curing from automobile accidents. Needless speed
ing and taking unnecessary chances are responsible
for most of the deaths and injuries which make up
the daily list.
Unfortunately, the r1Skless often kill and MAIN

way It is getting that who values his life
had better stay at home Sundays and holidays,

TOURIST TRAFFIC is BEING DIVERTED
FROM SAUK CENTRE

From conclusions formed by Sank Centre oil
service men and reports reaching the city from
what is considered reliable sources it is apparent
that tourist traffic is being diverted from this city
over other routes.
Sank Centre at the junction point of Highways
g. and g. is the natural objective OF the average
tourist visiting Minnesota.
The towns all of these routes ieaolng INTO
Sank Centre have ample hotel, restaurant and gar
age facilities; the farming country is not barren
waste but among the very best in the entire state'
this city is the natural gateway TO the rear lake re-
gion and summer playground OF the greatn nortn-
state On any one of the three routes out OF TINS
CITY to the north and west be found many lakes
to enhance the scenic beauty These lakes PROVIDE
ample fishing, bathing, cottage and camping 1acii-
ties. ;
The Minneapolis Civic and Commerce Associa-
ton operates tourist bureau in the Gateway of the
city 1t is widely advertised. The lO,ooo Lakes AS
ISOLATION also conduct an information bureau IN ot
Paul Thousands of strangers go to these FOUNTAIN
heads of information for direction. Many OF the
cities in the northern section have attractive liter

advantages of their particular location.

ed. The work on No. IL is a step
looking to the ultimate removal of
several more railroad crossings
and sharp turns in this route west
of Stewart. No. IL is being paved
this year from Brownton to Chas-
ka.
The largest job on the list, and
one of the largest ever undertaken
in a single contract in Minnesota,
calls for the relocation of L. H.
No. 35 by abandoning the temper
airy trunk route between Aitl1in and
Hill City, following the recently
built route of T. H. No. from
Aitkin to Hassman, and building a
new road from Hassman to Hill
City, thus saving several miles of
construction and avoiding the
swamps on the old route. The dis
lance from Hassman to Hill City
is 1913 miles and the plans call for
moving $4,000 cubic yards of dirt.
Several new bridges, including one
over the Mississippi near Waldeck,
have been placed under contract
earlier in the year.

misinformation to road conditions on No. west
of ST. Cloud.
The Herald hardly believe this condition ex-
lists it is generally assumed that organization
prominent the Minneapolis Civic Commerce
Association would not permit one section OF the
state to be stationed in their headquarters giving
misinformation regarding other sections of the
state.
The conditions which affects Sank Centre
also affects Osakis and Alexandria.
1t is perhaps too late to do anything this season
but the Herald is convinced the Community Club
can during the coming winter profitably sponsor
reasonable campaign which will provide sufficient
literature honestly advertising the manifold advan
tages of this immediate section and have it placed
in quantities at points where tourists are seeking re-
liable information

Todd County Will Gravel
Many Miles Of Highway
Contracts Let at Big Saving Over
Usual Cost Because of
Numerous Pits
(Long Prairie Leader)

dong Prairie Leader)
The county let a big road gravel
ing contract last week and such
was the keenness among the bid
ders that Engineer Jahnke figures
that the county saved several
thousand dollars on the work.
The total mileage of SO miles is
to be graveled and the total ex-
pense is to be less than $4,000.

kind of graveled job and the en-
tire work is to be finished not lat

One of the crawling crews began
work this week on the Grey Eagle
road job.
The Grey Eagle road from dis
lance Az miles north of Grey
Eagle through the village of Grey
Eagle to Birch Lake, is the first
job to be graveled. The village Of
Grey Eagle will take care of the
crawling within the village limits,
leaving a total of about six miles
for the county to gravel. The cost
of this piece of work is 81, S74.79.
The big job is the crawling of
the so-called Sank Centre-Aldrich
road, a distance of SO miles. The
cost of this is to be $17,177.96. This
is new road through the county
and is continuation north of the
Fairy Lake road through Reynolds,
