Stores are advertising vacation needs. Well
say vacation needs a lot of things-tme most
of all.
Another need of the age is less scheming to
get by without working and more working to get

One newspaper reports that there are peo-
pie living in such miserable shacks in the Ten
nessee mountains that every time it rains they
have to go out and get in the sedan.
The last legislature made it crime to Cos
sip about the banks, but it is still permissible
to spread the story that the merchant is cheat
the preacher is a hypocrite and the editor a
grafter.-Morris Tribune.
Dr. Charles Mayo says that the way to keep
young is to live with young people. He's un-
doubtedly right, but we don't believe even he
would suggest that elders try to stay up as late
as the youngsters do.

The Italian prince who was reported to be
about to marry Mrs. Mabel Gilman Corey has
said he doesn't think he wants to marry her
since he is quite dissatisfied with the marriage
settlement she had promised to make him. That
is a lovely little morsel for self-respecting
American woman to have to swallow! We hope

those guys get to Neptune and Mars and few
other planets to find out that legs are crookeder

The tragedy at International Falls is an
other shining example of what can happen when
mans hand is too quick on his gun. Officials
of one sort and another must learn sometime or
another, we should think that people who can't

Summer is here and the gypsy train is down
the road piece. Redwood Falls and all other
towns along the way might as well get ready to
receive these unwelcome visitors. Probably the
it goes, but the trouble is it doesn't go far
enough-just to the next town which then has

these guests arrive.
New Ulm is getting all ready to celebrate
her Diamond Jubilee, to recall to the present
generation the achievements of the pioneers, and

for the occasion, will enrich the historical re-
cords of the state.
