Redwood Falls Girl
at African Mission
Marjorie Steele Now Working
Among Natives in SOudan
Finds Heat and Styles

A temperature of over 100 degrees
in the shade is proving to be no more
than an every day event in the life
of Marjorie Steele, former Redwood
Falls girl, who is making her home
in the heart of Africa as a mission
airy. Miss Steele is graduate of
Redwood Falls high school who left
America in the fall Of 1928 and has
since been engaged in foreign mis-
sionary work.
Upon leaving this country Miss
Steele first went to Morocco and then,
later, to France where she spent
some time studying and learning the
French language. She and another
woman left France in November,
1929, and entered French West Afri-
ca at Dokar, travelling 1000 miles in
land to the mission headquarters in
the Soudan. From there they went
another hundred miles inland to their
present location.
The missionaries are now located
at Bougouni, in town of about a
thousand people, where there are but
five other white people, those con-
nected with the French government.
Their home is a wood and mud struc-
ture of three rooms with the intense
heat making cooking in the same
building an impossibility. Cool
nights, however, add considerable to
their comfort.
Speaking of the natives Miss
Steele stated, in a letter to friends
here, that they are of comparative
high grade and speak a language
somewhat easy to learn. Single piece
attires hold the center of the style
world while a cane or umbrella pro-
vides the ultra in masculine dress.

Legion Men Place
Steps at Bath House

Members Of the American Legion
met Monday evening and installed a
new stairway leading from the mum
icipal bath house to the beach at
Lake Redwood. The steep bank was
properly cut down and cement blocks
installed to insure greater safety to
bathers using the bath house.
The new bath house is finding inn
mense favor among bathers of the
city. During the recent hot weather
the beach was crowded to capacity
and the supply of suits for rent
proved inadequate, indicating the
presence of many transients at the
beach.

CALCIUM CHLORIDE
PLACED ON HIGHWAYS

Dust conditions on the state high
ways through the city have been i'm
proved to the extent of practical eli
mination with the recent addition of
calcium chloride. The use of this
material, a substance very similar to
ordinary salt, keeps the roads in a
continual moist condition. Water is
absorbed by the salt substance from
the air.

Minnesota May Lose
One Seat in Congress
1880 Census May Change States
Representation From Ten
to Nine Members

Frank Clague of Redwood Falls,
second district congressman and Paul
Kvale, representative of the seventh
district may become involved in a
contest in 1882 to see which one will
remain in congress as result of the
certainty that Minnesota will lose
one seat in the house. 1t is almost
sure that the state will lose repre-
sentation and be reduced from ten to
nine members following the official
census figures of 1880.
Charles B. Cheney, political writer
of the Minneapolis Journal has this
to say:
"In this case there is no question
about it. One of the congressman
will have to go by 1888.
1t is possible now, from the CEN
sus figure of 81 Minnesota counties
to forecast the line which the new
apportionment will have to take.
The forced expansion of three south
ern districts will require them to add
territory northward. That cuts into
the midsection, disturbing the sixth
and seventh districts. The seventh,
which is smallest in population, is
likely to be wrecked entirely, and
eliminated from the map. AS it hap
pens, that is the only district in the
state with farmer-labor representa-
tive.
So the reapportionment contest
next winter is likely to develop into
a battle for political life of Paul j.
Kvale, who is almost certain to be
thrown into the second district with
Frank Clague.
Minnesota seems sure to lose
member because the census did not
verify the previous estimates of q
10000. With the next house held to
435 members, the quota per member
is to be about 100000. Minnesota's
official total is 2,558,265, vonsider-
ably short of the number necessary
to retain the 10 house members.
Minnesota's representation was
raised in 1901 from seven members
to nine, and in 1911 it was increased
to ten. The revision Of districts each
time mean lot of grief for the legis-
lature.
This time the job will be harder
for it means cutting down the num-
Der of districts. The job is more i'm
perative than ever, though. When
the 1911 legislature failed to act, the
state simply had one extra congress
man, who was elected at large until
the redistricting was done in 1913.
Illinois has been electing two men,
bers at large for long time, rather
than tear up old district lines. A re-
duction, however, means that new
districts must be carved out, or all
nine members will have to be elected
at large. Reapportionment commit
tees will be highly important next
winter. Chairmen of these commit
tees will need to be diplomats, and
they will need clerks who are good
statisticians, with sharp pencils.
On the basis of nine members for
Minnesota, the average for each con-
ressional district is 284, 252. Three
of the districts are close to that fig
ure. The fourth district, Ramsey
county has 285,993 population. It
does not need to be disturbed. The
eighth has 1885, and is a little
short, but any adjoining county add

NEW YORK. Sept. 20 QN.S).
Though scattered professional
selling of industrial stocks and
Utilities took place In the first
hour today, the market in this
period presented the appearance
Of a lull after the storm. Prices
of leading issues dropped off
from a fraction to 11a points at
the start, but the completion of
overnight selling paved the way
for a moderate rally.
At the low price levels of the
day, Westinghouse showed a loss
of about 2 points. United States
Steel was down only fractionally,
American Can down a point,
American Waterworks and other
favorite utilities down a point
or less.
Moderate rallies took place
which carried prices slightly above
Fridays close.
Some improvement In business
and trade was noted in the
weekly surveys of the important
agencies, including Bradstreet's,
Dun's and the leading Wall Street
banks. The grain markets rallied
in the early trading, but lacked
the punch which had been anxi.
ously looked for at this time.
Activity dwindled after the first
