THE SUPREME TEST

Frequently. very frequently, we
hear Of policemen making trivial ar
rests just to turn in evidence to head
quarters Tor having been on the job.
This was not the case of a patrolman
in Indianapolis, Ind, recently when
he was knocked down by woman
motorist while directing traffic on a
street intersection. Notwithstanding
a fractured leg and many other bruis-
es suffered besides narrowly escaping
death under the wheels of the car, the
officer did not arrest the woman who
had committed the breach of traffic
rules, nor did he even take her name,
saying, "She was frightened enough"
Isn't this courtesy? This woman said
she did not see him, although he is
nearly six feet tall and was standing
with Outstretched arms in the center
of the intersection directing traffic
while school children were making
their way across the street. In all
probability she was honest in her ex-
PLANTATION and her memory of the cour-
teous policeman, who sympathized
with her in her hour of trans erosion
will be lasting and will probably be
as much of lesson to her as if she
had been brought to justice.

THE ASKOV AMERICAN)

cagO fOresee the passing of the red
blooded herman, and hint in no am
biguOus terms of the rise of the red
blOoded she-woman. The male of the
species, they tell us, is growing pasty
and anemic, his muscles will soon be
only vestigal remnants in a wasted
frame, and his ability to beat up the
little woman will eventually be a pas

the oldest inhabitants.
1t is a disheartening prospect for
those of us unlucky enough to be born
males. Even now we note, with sink
ing heart, the looming apparition OF
new type of wOman-the kind that
clouts the masher male on the chin
that swims channels and runs races
that ends all marital arguments by
making her husband say, Eyes, my

1t is a sad falling from grace. We

course with very clear and definite
goal. He knew what it is to be hated.
He would have been stronger if he
had not known what it is to hate.
He fought for the people, as governor
of Wisconsin and as senator of the
United States, and his memory de-
serves well of Wisconsin and the ma
ton,
Rerefence was made in the address
ses at the unwilling of his statue
to La Follette's course during
the World war. He felt then what it
is to be hated, even more than he had
earlier when he was disturbing the
complacent tyranny of lumber, beer,
and railroads.
And yet many who reviled him then
must be uncomfortably aware today
that in his attitude toward the war
he was nearer right than most of his
critics.
For he dared to hold to ideals in
the face of war and the whip of ma
tiOnalistic patriotism that most of us
hold in time of peace and conveniently
forget when the war drums beat and
the war trumpet sounds the call to
cease thinking and blindly obey.

THE NEW PATROL

The legislature has authorized the
state highway system to employ 80
highway patrolmen whose duty ii
will be to patrol the main highways
of Minnesota and enforce the laws
relative to registration, use and oper-
alton of vehicles on the trunk high
ways, but they shall have no power
to enforce the laws relative to speed
limits. But, it is brought out that
this will not impair the effective
ness of the adoption, for motorists
may be arrested for reckless driving
if it can be shown that they are
travelling at speed which is ell
dangering any person or property.
Now let us hope this new traffi ,
patrolman will earn the responsibility
which the legislature has seen fit to
place in him, although it seems to
us his powers are too limited. At
any rate he can be of much benefit
to the motoring public just to have
around. If the drivers who are in
clined to be reckless, know there is
an officer present who will take their
license number and report their be-
havior, they will be a little more
careful. Hence the patrol expndi-
ture will be avenged.

LA TOILETTE
Duluth Herald)

In the capitol building at Wash
ingtOn there is a place called Statu-
airy Hall, where each state is entitled
to place statues of two of its most
eminent sons
Recently the statue of Robert
Marion La Toilette was unveiled there
as Wisconsin's second contribution to
this hall of fame. The other figure
from Wisconsin is that of Father
Marquette. the gallant French priest
and explorer who carried the cross
through the wilderness and blazed
trails for civilization to follow.
Wisconsin does well to have Bob
La Toilette represent it in Statuary
Hail.
He found Wisconsin ruled absolutely
by triumvirate of lumber, beer, and
railroads, and he left it common
wealth governed by it's people.
He stood in American life for the
proposition that people are more
precious than property, and he fought
for that doctrine valiantly through
all his life.
He was not always right, even
though his main course was emphatic
ally right. He made mistakes, as we
all do. But he was headed rightly,
and in the main he pursued straight

TIMES HAVE CHANGED

When one travels through the pres
ent day rural districts on paved high
ways and crosses brooks and rivers
haps wander to some Out-Of-the-way
lake where the large one once got
away, it is almost unbelievable to note
the change that has taken place. The
advancement of the past generation
and the expansion of civilization has
wrought the change. The lake In the
wilderness and the wild scenes of ma
ture have felt the hand of man. They
have been transformed into a mockery
of what once was paradise. The
scenes of our childhood have been
changed-things are not the same.
The motor car has taken the place of
the buggy and horse. which used to
be the fad with every young man.
Money is expended in fabulous sums
now compared with the price of en-
tertainment in those days. Where
children had five cents to spend at
the county fair then. they have fifty
now. and no more joy is reaped from
the expenditure. But would we
change?
The average person now lives in
luxury compared to the ancestor of
former generations. One has every
convenience at hand. Electricity has
done it's work and the motor car has
"eaten up" the miles. The telephone
has linked communities and yes ma
tions, and now comes the airplane and
the radio. Unlimited possibilities are
within reach of the appliance of these
facilities. The human race is in a
mad whirl of changing conditions.
Although there may be some sad
ness experienced in visiting the scenes
of former days. it is for the best
the modern race demands it.

WHY NOT CHEER THEM!

There are hundreds of disabled war
veterans in the hospitals of the coun-
try, who are Willing away the long
hours of the days and nights await
ing the death that has been hurried
upon them much too soon by the great
World war These men, though COM
paratively young in years, are broken
in body and spirit, and all because of
that great conflict They have given
their all for their fellowmen. Will
we forget them so easy? They do not
ask for much-just a little reminder
of our thoughtfulness.
If one were to visit veterans hos
pital at post time, an air of anticipa-
ton would be felt. There would lie
the wasted frame of once robust
man, who has felt the sting of the
enemies bullets, with tense muscles
and almost hopeless expectancy in his
attitude watching the postman as he
makes his round of the various cots
that line the ward. One would see
the blank stare of disappointment on
the face of the one on the cot when
the hoped-for bit of news from the
outside world failed to come. One
would note the look of envy which
crept into that face after noting the
good fortune of the one next to him.

help to brighten the lives of the boys,

THE WEATHER

No doubt many have been more or
less agitated about the continued cool
weather and are longing for the balmy
breezes of summer to relieve the
ground of its chill and the air of its
sting. True enough. it is the first of
May. but We hope if We get the cool
weather now, We will not be hampered
in our summer activities a little later
on. The people of this section have
no cause to complain, for they have
been treated more leniently the past
winter than many other communities
that have a right to expect more from
the weather man.
Even though the weather is little
cool now, the farmers are getting
along nicely in their spring activities
and after all this is what matters
most in the rural districts.

OUR GROWING CHURCHES
1.-THE Minneapolis Starr


1t is common saying that the
churches are losing their grip" that
religion is failing to keep pace with
modern spiritual needs. If these
things were true, how account for the
more than 5000 increase in Christian
church membership in Minneapolis
during 1928?
The only way to measure church
interest is by church attendance.
While some may bubble at the JUS
tice of gauging the increase or de-
crease in worship by mere figures, the
fact of the matter stands that the
more people that go to church the
more widespread is interest in the
things the church offers.
Minneapolis houses of worship have
made an encouraging showing. In
these days of multifarious worldly &C
tivities and attractions, it is worthy
of remark that eight Minneapolis de-
nominations have consistently in
creased their membership. Less and
less are people nowadays going to
church because they Ought" to go.
Apparently Minneapolis churches
are supplying the spiritual needs of
the congregations they serve, belying
the cocksure statements of the skep-
tics

GOOD CLEAN SPORT

The coming week will see the Of
fetal opening of the county baseball
season and from all indications il
will be bigger and better than ever be-
fore. Those in charge have left
no stone unturned to better the
game and this is very commendable
Good clean sport helps to keep the
human race young-it builds healthy
and happy bodies. Of course there
are cases when it would be far better
if baseball or any other sport were
not known. but the game itself, played
right is an asset. Leave out all
crOOkedness and quarreling and we
are for it; throw these i'm and we
are against it. 1t is thus with any
thing when dishonesty or evil en-
tiers, the horizon darkens.

POTATOES VS.. TOBACCO
Gsanti and Chisago County News)


People have been known to have
been driven to distraction and some
to be driven to drink. And now comes
new one. The latest is to be driven
to tobacco-not the smoking of it but
raising it. With national advertising
as it is, tobacco-raising appears to
hold a greater financial future than
banking on the old-fashioned potato.
The news of 81 farmers in Benton
county signing up to grow the crop
this year sounds like a warning that
Isanti county's sandy potato fields may
have seen their best days.

BE A FRIEND
(Levang's Weekly

In neighboring village a business
man. taking exceptions to the inva-
sion into his town of a peddler who
was selling goods carried in his store,
wrote very good and timely article
for the local paper about the evils
of patronizing itinerant merchants
because they contributed not a cent
to taxes, churches, or any public en-
terprise. 1t would have gotten by
the editor in fine shape had it not
been written on a letter head the
merchant bought of a cheap cata-
lOgue house. It's the old story: if
you want friends, be one; if you want
other people to be regular, be regu-
lar yourself.

LAW
Duluth Herald)

President Hoover talked to the As
sociated Press yesterday about law
and whether it is going to survive in
this country.
He could have chosen no subject
that is more important, for there is
nothing in our social system worth
enduring that does not stand wholly
upon a foundation of law and respect
for law.
They are blind indeed, who look
on calmly, and even with amusement
at prevalent law violations, for these
violations, whatever form they may
take, are steadily and subtly under
mining the whole structure of law.
And without law and public respect
for law, human life and property
the property of the humble as well as
that of the great-have no protection
That is the folly of those who are
complacent toward law violations OF
any kind whatever.
1t clouds the situation to assume
that lawlessness grows wholly out OF
prohibition. Prohibition is producing
it's full share of lawlessness, but Mr.
Hoover pointed out that less than
eight per cent of last years convic-
tions for felonies grew out of viola
lions of the prohibition law.
The government needs to enforce
the law more vigorously, but the need
that every citizen take a firm stand
for law and against lawlessness is al
least as great. Governments never
will and never can be better or strong.
