NEW MINNESOTA PLUM
A CANT AND A BEAUTY

Minnesota fruit growers are soon
to have a new plum presented for
their approval. This new fruit has
been developed at the fruit breeding
farm of the Minnesota Agricultural
Experiment Station and so far is
known only as No. 1914. 1t attracted
much attention from State Fair visit
ors this year because of its unusual
size and beauty.
No. 1914 is the first outstanding hy-
brid of new type, according to DR..
A. N. Wilcox, one Of the University's
fruit breeders. The fruit, which rip
ems in late August and early Septem-
Der, is very large, nearly two inches
long, and is comic and pointed in
shape. The skin is dark red, cover
ed with an attractive bloom. The
flesh, which is deep yellow, has the
unusual quality of being tender and
juicy and at the same time firm. The
flavor is sweet, sprightly, and very
pleasing.
DR.. Wilcox predicts that this plum
will be very popular for market pur-
poses, because Of it's beauty, high
quality, and frmness. It's distinctive
shape makes it easy for purchasers
of the fruit to identify and remember
it, he says. 1t will probably be NAM
ed and distributed within the next
few years.

Right Where You Stand

CIT HE winning team had special gift for
snatching opportunities and the losing team
had special gift of leaving opportunities
nal commenting about the Minnesota Vanderbilt foot
ball game.
This is the essential difference between a good
and poor team. 1t is equally true of man In
dividual, or of body of men organization.
The common saying has it that opportunity knocks
but once but this is refuted by observers who know
that opportunity often knocks repeatedly in the
place.
Human nature is prone to belittle its position,
bewail of the circumstances its environment. The
other fellow is looked upon obviously having the
better job, or bigger pay.
"The grass is always greener in the other fellows
yard" s'The other side of the mountain is the Ell
Dorado" Thus do excuse own faults and short
comings by wishing ourselves in the other fellows
place. in different environment, which actually the
countless chances for betterment the waiting oppor
unities are being overlooked.
"Cast your net right where you stand, and you
shall find" said Guy w. Green in of his lectures,
who used parable for illustrating that opportunity
exists wherever it. As Jesus said to the dis
appointed fisherman who had returned home from dis
tant waters without fish, "cast your in these wat
ers, the right side of the ship and ye shall find"
And they did.
Too many of going too "far of shores" in
search of opportunity while it may be found right
where we stand. Too seldom the door is opened to
opportunity, and often it is slammed in the face.

None Too Old to Learn
~ FTEN one hears uneducated man bewa his
lot, complaining that he never had a chance to
acquire education. Usually such man is
who actually labors not more than eight hours
day. He overooks the fact that he could easily de-
vote three four hours daily to profitable reading
and study, whereby he might overcome the handicap
of which he complains.
Too many get the idea that unless they acquire
an education in early life they must remain in ignor
ance. No greater mistake be made. 1t is not
when one begins to learn, but when one stops that
counts.
The trouble with the man or woman who goes
through life in ignorance is usually nothing but sheer
laziness Think of Lincoln, getting an education at
night from borrowed books, studied by the light from
fireplace. Or of Andrew Johnson who only learned
to write after he was married. and received an ele-
Yet both to the office of President of the United
States.
How great the opportunities of even the humblest
today, in comparison with those of Lincoln and John
son. Books, magazines and newspapers are within
reach of ALL Machinery has given everyone greater
leisure for seimprovement if such is really desired
No one need remain uneducated unless he deiber- |
ately chooses to remain so.

Schall Attacks a Great Americani

recognition accorded Grant at the close of the Civ

the Journal follows in part:
What WAS the animus back of Schalls
mud singing attack Pershing?
In 1913, when the American armies were
beginning the great drives that eventually
ended the war; Thomas D. Scha went to
- France as member of congress to visit the
torn country. He reached Paris along in
july just after the battle of Chateau Thierry
and while the American forces preparing
for the st. Mihiel drive. He called on General
Pershing and asked for permission to visit
the forces in the field, confer with the soldiers
and perhaps make speech to them.
Pershing refused to give him permit to
pass the lines into the 1t

the great campaign to end the war was about
to be launched. The army movements were of
necessity shrouded in mystery The plan of
campaign carefully guarded secret. Not
even officers commanding large units were adj

or of where troops were headed It was no
time for handshaking or speechmaking. In
fact France was about the last place for med
dlesome members of congress to indulge in
oratory Back of the lines Pershing had
tended to Schal every courtesy, notwithstand-
ing time was precious and it period of
distraction and great nervous strain But the
American general refused to give Schall a
pass to the 'front.' not because he was refusing
Scha alone but because he was giving pass

Schall returned to Paris shaking with rage
and in that city denounced Pershing in
measured terms He vowed he would get
even. He waited year. When congress was
about to bestow honor upon the American
leader, an honor worthiy earned, Schall rose
in his seat and Embossed his batteries of mud.
He sat down amid sence-the silence of
resentment.
The Schall speech had no other effect upon
his fellow congressman than to besmirch its
author with his mud. 1t stands in the
Congressional Record today, because it is
printed there and can not be expunged. Some
day. years hence, however some one will run
across it in searching the records of congress
for historical data and, as the name of Perish
ing stands forth in American glory, he will
marvel at how puny the shafts Of venom
and abuse hurled by petty congressman who
by then will be remembered only because he
once stood up in the halls of congress and at

To Serve the People

~ ISAPPOINTED as few may have been at Ray P.
J Chase's inability to speak at Redwood Falls Sat-
- urday night the principles outlined for him
by Congressman Clague and Stafford King were i'm
pressive in that his analysis of state problems reflect
thorough understanding of the needs of the people
State Auditor Chase has more knowledge of facts
and figures at his command than any other official.
BY of his fourteen years of experience in state
auditing he is familiar with taxation and stands ready
to conduct administration that is economically eff
ficient.
AS he cited in his keynote speech at Anoka, he
advocated 'payasyou-go" system of public expendi-
lures to help lower taxes The outstanding qualca-
ton perhaps is his ability to the people with
this in mind. He also favored continuation of the
good roads building program.
With these very evident qualifications Ray p.
Chase is the likely to conduct the affairs of the
state efficiently and conservatively and with the in
terests of the people always foremost
