ZETTE, REDWOOD FALLS. MINNESOTA
The greatest liar in the world is the secre-
tary who says, "Mr. Business Man is out; I will
have him call you"
The fewer accidents you have the lower your
rate of automobile insurance will be next year
and the years after. One more incentive for driv-
ing like a sensible human being instead of
fend.
Minneapolis girl accepted an invitation to
ride with strange man who offered to take
her home from dance hall. An hour after she
was picked up by ambulance from lonely
road, taken to a hospital with fractured skull,
broken arm and broken jaw. Dance halls
girls-unknown automobiles fine COM
bination!
Rudy Lee is not a candidate for anything
political according to the little announcement in
recent issue of his Long Prairie Leader. Ruddy's
statement was really statement to please hush
yo noise" to all the newspaper brethen who have
been nominating him for everything from United
States senator to keeper of the sacred mouse
trap Rudy would be formidable candidate if
he chose to jump in for this or that-but he very
definitely doesn't choose.

A Willmar paper suggests the follow
ing slogan for the people of that town:
81 will at least try to find what want
in Willmar." That's slogan which
might well be adopted by every town in
Minnesota and should apply to business :
men as well as wage earners.-Jackson
County Pilot.
In fact the business men should try it first
of ALL There is no justice in asking people to
buy at home if the dry goods man is sending to
a wholesale house for his groceries, the grocery
sending to "Borax Store" for his furniture,
the furniture man sending to his brother-in-law in
Iowa for shoes for his children-and all of them
sending out of town for their printing! Just no
justice AT ALL!
In every great city and even in smaller
towns the parking of automobiles has become a
very serious problem. The larger the city the
more complicated the situation At Grand Forks,
North Dakota, the business men and their en-
ployees are being urged to not only adopt the
slogan, walk to work Saturday" but to live up
to it, This plan if followed out on other days as
well Saturday would help the parking prob
lem and do lot more. Men have almost for
homes to their offices and back again at night,
overlooking that there is nothing that will pro-
mote health and long life more than walking in
the open air. Commenting on the value of walk
ing, the Star Telegram, of Fort Worth, Texas,
says: There's something in the posture and
physical effects of walkirg-and by walking is
meant swinging along with thrust behind the
step and not merely dawdling-that keeps a
ma in nc Il
not give man legs as mere pendants, nor as
ornaments in the Of the ladies' Legs are
made to use Neglect to use them exacts Sc
we're penalty. Many man who rides 80 miles in
his automobile and thinks he has exercised
would be in better condition today if he walk
ed his six or eight miles day, Also There are
times for taxis and pleasure driving. Enjoy
them but do not cut out the walking that is so
valuable to health."-Mapleton Enterprise

Two things were just done in a hurry
Al Capone, who had gone free in Chicago
was found in Philadelphia with gun. He was
arrested in the evening and was before the de-
tectives at $3.50 in the morning, indicted by the
grand jury for carrying concealed weapons at TO-:
25, went on trial at 1890, plead guilty at 1915
and started serving sentence of year at 1880.
1t took just Is hours and 35 minutes to ar
rest and convict.
A few weeks ago a nursery Inspector in
Florida found some larvae in grapefruit He
sent the fruit by air mail for inspection at Wash
ington. 1t that the mediterranean fruit fly
had come to the United States. That fly will
do millions Of dollars in damage, destroy crops
and attack many other kinds of fruit besides
the oranges and grapefruit.
An appeal made to congress to vote
money to fight this danger. In less than a half
hour, $4,2O0,000 in cash was voted That is a
record in legislation.
Things like the humans and the flies who
destroy need rapid action.-Grand Rapids Her
