When
we are history

WHEN the world has spun until 1926
w seems quaint and by-gone, historians
will be writing our social history -. how we
lived and worked aud played,
They will get their material from the files
of our daily newspapers. And how care
fully they will study the advertisements,
because it is the advertising that truly
reflects the customs of our times.
But, while our advertising will be inter
esting to the historians of tomorrow, it is
more than interesting TO us of today. it
is vital For advertising brings news of all
that is best in our daily life. The pleasant
things The useful things. Things that
tighten our burdens. Help us in our daily
work. Bring ease, comfort and color into
our lives.
Ia short, advertising shows us the way
to get more out of living.

ASKOV HIGH SCHOOL
NOTES

On Friday, Monday, and Tuesday
the assembly has been
great battlefield. The final contest
ants are to be chosen for the debate
teams. There are eighteen students
taking part. They are divided into
three groups of six each VINO are
putting forth debate. The question
is very we'll balanced for of the two
debates already judged, the affirma-
tive won by a unanimous vote in one
debate, and the negative also won
by unanimous vote in the second.
The Sophomores are very enthusl-
astic about their trip to Minneapolis.
From various reports we know that
they had a very good time and that
the various places visited were very
interesting. Among the different
places visited were the Biology Build
ing, the Orpheum Theater, the Mime
haha Falls, and the Void Chamber
lain airport.
The basketball court has been too
wet to play on of late. so the boys
last Tuesday, played touch-football
Many were unfamiliar with the game
so little progress was made, as fal
as scores were concerned, and the
game ended to O. The following
Thursday, Coach Anderson read rules
for basketball and discussed some new
plays which could be made. They
also discussed as to whether the boys
should form an Athletic club of which
the majority were in favor.

REQUESTS COOPERATION

Last year we were very fortunate in
having a winter which permitted the
use of motor trucks on the Askov school
routes during the greater part of the
time. In fact, one driver used his
horses only four times during the
whole year. We may not be so for
tunate this year as far as the weather
is concerned, but we can at least try
to keep the roads open and tit for use
by motor vehicles.
There are many ways OF tackllng
the problem. Grass along the road
side can be burned. Second growth
brush can be cut and piled out of the
way. Snow fences can be constructed
of brush and logs. The various neigh
borhoods can be organized for snow
removal as was done last year in
some parts of the community. l am
confident that the bus drivers will do
their share in keeping the roads fit
for travel.
l have only one reason for request
ing your cooperation in this matter,
and that is the welfare of the chill
dren. Anyone who has seen how mis-
cradle the children are when they
arrive at school in the horse drawn
vans, after an hours drive, will under
stand why motor transportation is SO
much better. When the trucks are
used, the children are not in them
long enough to really suffer from the
cold.
May we ask your help in keeping
the roads open?

A PROCLAMATION

The Christmas Seal sale which
opens soon offers the chance to every
one in our community to help save,
not one life, but thousands at very
small cost to each one of us.
The fight of the Christmas Seal
against disease concerns everybody.
tuberculosis knows no boundary lines,
city, county, or state. 1t attacks the
rich as we'll as the poor and it cannot
be controlled, anywhere, until every
man, woman and child knows the dan
gers of contact with the disease and
the Importance of its early discovery.
To tell people these things, to dem
onstrate simple methods of prevention,
to lead in the campaign for detection
of infection while there is still time
for a cure-this is the work of the
Christmas Seal organizations.
The fact that the death rate from
tuberculosis has been cut in half in
Minnesota in the last 20 years shows
they are doing the work well. But
each community must do it's share,
year NY year, VI oil Will ouIiSi.
Christmas Seals express the truest
spirit of Christmas. They lend charm
and gayety to Christmas letters and
cards and Christmas packages, and
they offer hope to the whole world
for a day when the tragedies of tu-
berculosis may be forgotten.
1 strongly urge everyone to buy
generously this year. l hope every
letter, card or package that leaves
our post office will bear a Christina.
Seal to show how completely ant
intellectually we are backing the
anti-tuberculosis movement.
