sociation asked for opinions con-
corning the future outlook and with
but few exceptions those reporting
were optimistic and enthusiastic.
Many of those reporting said that
the most of the sales were made to
farmers who realize that lands have
struck the bottom and are now buy
ing additional land for themselves
or their sons. In some localities it
was reported that practically all
distressed land had been removed
from the market and that values
are mounting.
Work of the association during
1929 was divided equally between
tourist and agricultural activities.
Tourist advertising was placed in
publications reaching more than
ten million subscribers. Radio pub
licity, booklets and maps were used.
Advertising was placed in farm
magazines and papers reaching g.
407, $50 subscribers. Motion pic

HEADLINE ENGLISH

Professors of English held convention
in Kansas City a few days ago, and among
other things discussed the influence of news
papers in modifying the speech of the people
AS might have been expected, some felt that
this influence was good, while others thought
it terrible.
In their search for short words which
will fit in the limited space available to them,
writer's of newspaper headlines have develop
ed peculiarly effective, though sometimes
inelegant, form of expression.
In the headlines, an investigation, of
which there are many, is called "probe," be-
cause five letters are easier to handle than
Ii. Similarly, collision is a CRASH" an
agreement is a 'pact," to denounce is to
"flay," an explosion is "blast," an athletic
contest is a "tilt," and so on. On the sport
page "journalese" does it's worst.
Deploring what he considers the evil eff
fects OF newspaper English, DIR. Hopkins of
the University of Kansas said that teachers
were duty bound to take stand against it,
but significantly added: "In theory that is
our stand, but it does us little good to take
any stand. We might as well quit and let
the language go it's way. will anyway"
And that probably covers all that is to
be said on the subject.

WHY WILL THEY ..FALL FOR TIP

A fake advertising solicitor recently Wis
tied Storm Lake, secured the consent of a
restaurant proprietor to furnish him few
menu cards absolutely Free" if given per-
mission to sell advertising on the cards-at
about ten times the value of the advertising
to local merchants. The stranger sold the
ads and collected for them and forgot all
about having the menu cards printed. The
same scheme is being worked the country ov-
er constantly, although as a rule the sales
man does have few dozen cards printed.
Within the past year one lady solicitor col
lected approximately $50 for less than a
days work soliciting advertisements on a
wall card from Hawarden business men. The
printer received $40 or SIP for turning out
the job and the lady solicitor got the balance
for her enterprise. There were a total of
100 cards printed and fully 80 per cent of
these were never posted where anyone would
see them. Behold, she was a stranger and
she took them in."-Ida Grove Pioneer.

A COMPLETE INVESTIGATION
DESIRABLE

The investigation of the proposed tele-
phone rate increase in the City OF Sank Cen
tire and the Rural lines, by the Sank Centre
Community Club is perfectly justlfiable.
The primary purpose of the Community
Club is to protect the interests of the citizens
and to foster and encourage new and worth
while public improvements and deserving prl-
vate enterprises.
The public hearing on the petition OF the
Northwestern Bell Telephone company to
change the local system over from magnetic
system to what is known as the common bat
terry system held the early part Of last week
in this city did not develop any great amount
of interest.
The evidence submitted was largely a
mass of figures which, in the last analysis,
did not mean much to the average person
attending the hearing.
The telephone company have wisely tax
en- the position that it is not their purpose to
insist on a decision until the Community
Club has made every possible investigation.
They have even gone on record as stating
they would work with the Club to obtain an
additional hearing at which the entire mat
ter can be gone over again.
Mr. Average Citizen of Sank Centre
hasn't any quarrel with the telephone COM
pany.
The petition of the company to increase
the rates so per cent appears to the av-
erage phone user as being pretty stiff.
Mr.. Average Citizen is willing to admit
that probably the company has not been
earning very high rate of interest on the
present local rates, but he would like to
know something of the profit accruing to
the company on the toll business originating
in this city.
The Herald believes the investigation is
good thing for the telephone company. The
fair-minded man is willing to admit the COM
pany is entitled to fair return on it's invest
ment in this city.
When the investigation is completed, an.
other hearing held and an equitable increase
arrived at the atmosphere will be cleared.
The Northwestern Bell Telephone Com
pany can succeed only when the public uses
the telephone service. 1t is good business for
them to cooperate with the Community Club
in letting all the possible daylight in on their
petition for increased rates.

One of the most important institutions in Amer

Doctor Butler, of Columbia, Doctor Kirby and

At the dedication DR.. Eugene Bleler, of the
University of Zurich explained to hundred and fifty
assembled scientists that acquired characteristics

of three billion eight hundred and thirty million and
a few odd hundred thousand dollars.
It seems a great deal compared with the days
before the when the government spent billion

However, thanks to Secretary Mellon, President
Coolidge and President Hoover the amount that
going to spend next year is great deal less than
we have been spending.
The income tax will be cut $16o,ooo,ooo if plans
go through.
The Presidents reassuring expressions on the
stock market crash and especially his energetic and
effective action in the assembling Of great Industrial
lists and mapping out prosperity program, call for
public gratitude.

THE WORLD TODAY

President Hoovers forceful address to nearly 400
industrial leaders in washington is one for which
the country will thank him. It is bound to produce

that there has been sharp increase in unemployed.

many unemployed there are in Britain where gov
eminent pays a dole" enough to live each week,
to those out of work.
We have here 100000 more unemployed than
they have in France, where unemployment is prac-
tically unknown
And this is surprising in the richest most pros
porous country earth.
The President is determined to do something
about it.
