THE "E"

Every printer knows that the letter
tire alphabet. About SO per cent
more .'e's" are used than any other
letter. Someone has figured it out
that the character ''e' is important
because it is always out of cash, for
ever in debt, never out of danger, and
in hell all the time.
But we call his attention to the fact
that the "e's" are never in war and
always in peace. Without it there
would be no meat, no life and no
heaven. 1t is the center of honesty,
makes love perfect and without it
there would be no editors, devils or
news.-Moose Lake Star Gazette.

A NEW CALENDAR
Duluth Herald)


The members of the Duluth Cham
Der of Commerce in their annual cleo
tiOn Tuesday voted on the proposal of
new calendar with thirteen equal
months, and the plan carried by the
rather narrow margin of thirteen
votes.
There is no question whatever that
this new calendar would work very
much better than the old. The only
possible reason for not adopting it is
that the people are used to the old
way and, for awhile, would be both
cred little by the new way. Yet that
reason, thin as it seems. is very
real stumbling block. Habit is one of
the heaviest of the chains that ham,
per human progress.
Some time the new calendar will
be generally adopted, but not right
away.
has complicated the program by adopt
ing another new calendar with a
shorter week. The chief purpose of
that seems to be to do away with
Sunday and it's religious connotations.
for the powers that be in Russia are
as obsessed with anti-religious pre-
judice as ancient New England ever
was with religious bias.
But the calendar of thirteen equal
months of four weeks each, with every
week starting on the first, eight.
fifteenth and twenty-second of every
month, is so clearly convenience
that some time the world will have it.

forms. The shipbuilders' lobby is a
recent good example of what is &C
complished by those blood suckers.

Recently man went scantily clad
and unarmed into the wilds of Canada
for the purpose of re-enacting the part
of the primitive man thrown upon the
mercies of natures elements to wrest
sustenance for certain length OF
time. The only good that we are able
to see in this venture is that it fur
nishes the newspapers something tC
write about and gives him some por-
tion of revenue to partially offset the
serious threat that he is making to
his health.

A DIFFICULT TASK

A young man was elected last week
to fill the position in the United
States Congress vacated by the death
of his father. The count showed
that he had received some 10000
votes more than his opponent. This
election places heavy responsibility
upon Paul Kvale, the young man men,
toned.
He is charged not only with the
task of filling the office in it's ordinary
state through his own cognizance, but
he is also charged of carrying on to a
satisfactory end the trust that the
people of his district have seen fit to
place in him through the memory Of
his father.
1t appears mainly that he was elect
ed on the strength of the latter as
was the case with Robert LaFollette
of Wisconsin and which condition has
caused Theodore Roosevelt, Jr to be
remembered so often with high poll
teal offices.
We think young Kvale has the abil-
ity and we hope that he will carry on
in the footsteps of his father. He
may have to change his stride and
this in itself may be difficult but he
has had the intimate association for
the past seven years that is needed
and he should have a full understand
ing of the tasks laid out by his father
and plans in mind for their consul
nation.
He will be watched and he will be
quantity of sincerity should carry him
through.

INJURED DURING
SUMMER, STILL A
PATIENT SUFFERER

Frank Baumchen of BerOun, is still
apolis recovering from serious in
juries received in August when Ford
car struck the team and wagon which
he was driving on highway No. 1. Mr..
Baumchen is 70 years of age and bears
his misfortune bravely. The accident
caused Mr. Baumchen to suffer a
crushed leg which the doctors found
necessary to place in a cast after two
operations for removing splints of
bone. Thus for nine weeks Mr.. Baum
chen has lain in the hospital bed at
the Deaconess hospital, unable to
move himself except for rings su-
spended over his bed. Through it all
however Mr. Baumchen has shown a
wonderful fortitude, and when visited
by representative of the American,
he expressed his appreciation for the
visit and asked to be remembered to
his friends.
Mrs. Baumchen has been with her
husband much of the time during his
long stay in the hospital.

Oscar HaavistO of Pine City, is also
at the Deaconess hospital in Mime
apOlis, where he is recovering from
an injury to his right arm, which was
suffered when he attempted to crank
Ford. Although at first thought to
be only an ordinary break, Infection
set in to such serious extent that
it was feared for a time his arm would
have to be amputated. He escaped
this however, and is now making a
slow recovery

A VOICE FROM WILMA

Editor Askov American:
In reading over the Askov American
can not be satisfied till | have writ
ten few lines in regards to the meet
ing held in Wilma township in re-
CARDS to taxes. 1t seems, if the
farmers start anything, they get slar
in the face or cold water thrOwed on
them
The first | want to mention, is the
fact that Mr.. Empey did not call that
meeting. He was asked to come by
one of the committee and | know the
names of every man who were insti-
gators of this meeting, and every man
was from Wilma township. The idea
of the meeting was just what Mr.. EN-
pey stated in friendly way, to get
together with all concerned Mr..
Petersen stated the tax problem is a
local affair. 1t might have been at
one time, but at the present time,
think it is getting to be public one.
AS to the debt in the eastern part
of the county, has any one in the
western part stopped to think that
when the townships set off. there
were bonds that were taken over by
them? And also there are very few
townships, if any, that are not help
ing to pay debts directly or indirectly,
at the present time that were con-
tracted for before the eastern part
had any roads or schools.
l think it would be a good thing if
some of those that are criticising our
meeting would stop and think of it,.
1t is not our aim to fight something,
it is to get some way in our local ter
ritOry anRthen take it to the county
board, and if necessary to the tax
commission, and it may end in some
kind of new legislation. Whatever,
hope it will be in an agreeable and
friendly way
l also hope we will have no trouble
in having our county board work with
us, as l think, if we try to help our
selves in one way or another, that
they will also help. Everyone feels
the burden of taxes. You hear it over
the radio and everywhere you go.
1t looks to me q may be wrong)
that Mr.. Petersen is trying to whip
Mr.. Therrien over our backs, or ours
over his. l think Mr.. Therrien is
right about criticism, as we all get
it from the farmer up to the president,
and If anyone is entitled to it they
should take it, and if not, there is
always some way to show them why
they should not. Most of the political
people are against farmers organiza-
tions, and they seem to have a reason,
as it looks to me they are liable to find
out things they do not want to know.
1t looks to me as if Mr. Petersen is
taking dig at Mr. Therrien and Mr..
Empey that they are not entitled to
at this time.
We intend to have more meetings.
and expect to have more state and
county men with us to help solve the
problem and am in hopes that in
the near future we will have the
whole county with us.
l hope TO see this in print and if |
have any criticism coming, let it come
either through the paper or person
ally.
Yours truly,
r. J. SHUTE,
