Our Flower Gardens

TIME Redwood Falls Better Flower and Garden
club has continued it's excellent work this year
and Redwood Falls is now receiving of the
recognition this club has earned for it. The club
sisting of Joe Tyson, president, Dr. H. B. Cole first
vice president, Mrs. w. T. Wilcox second vice pres-
dent, M. R. Myers, secretary and L. R. Ewart treas
urer and with $50 members, is responsible for
the beautiful park which has replaced the unsghtly
corner at Mill and Bridge streets as well as count
less privately owned flower gardens Of unusual beauty
Mr.. Tyson also instrumental in organizing the
club at Fairfax which has progressed rapidly and
which but recently visited Redwood Falls to view the
work here. An appreciation of the beauty of our
gardens here is expressed by comment of the Fairfax
Standard:
The officers and members of the Fairfax Flower
and Garden Club journeyed to Redwood Falls late
Tuesday afternoon, for picnic supper and trip Of
inspection and education through beautiful Redwood
Falls and Ramsey State Park.
The local Club is as yet, very young and felt it
might learn much from the older sister Club at Red
wood Falls. Last year this Club made delightful
park out of plot of weed grown ground on the high
way leading directly into Ramsey Park the edge
of the town.
Each and every member of the Garden Club
there is not only vitality interested in making their
pleasant town beautiful but they are constantly
improving and identifying their own gardens lawns
and back yards The Fairfax Club viewed lovely
sunken gardens; cool lily pools and fish ponds; back
yards that looked like parks especially those overlook
ing the Redwood River; and gorgeous flower gardens,
bright with midsummer bloom.
This year the Redwood Club is helping improve
the addition to Ramsey Park and of course plan
ming for their Flower Show when all the gardens con-
tribute their choicest blossoms and in friendly
airy for the prizes and honors.
The Garden Club members from Fairfax who en-
joyed the many good things provided by the ladies for
the picnic supper, and, later, the trip through Red
wood have gained added inspiration and ideas for their
work here, and will pass their enthusiasm on we
very sure to those who found it impossible to enjoy
the delightful trip. full moon riding in cloudess
sky made it possible to visit gardens after daylight
had faded and prolonged trip which will be
forgotten by those who took it.

THRIFT AND PENSIONS

(The following was submitted for
publication by Gust Ristrom of Kings
dale, and appeared in a previous is
sue of the Minneapolis Journal.)
Examining into the social philoso-
ply of pensions, DR.. Henry S. Prit-
chett president of the Carnegie Foun-
dation for the Advancement of Teach
ing, assails the free" pension. Any
pension given without cost to the
beneficiary is demoralizing, says DR..
Pritchett. There must be thrift at
the base of the annuity, he declares,
even though "the old time virtue is
now looked upon as somewhat obso-
lete."
The Carnegie Foundation ought to
be competent to draw such a conclu-
sion. Some years ago it found the
pension requests of Andrew Carnegie,
then administered as free pensions,
were not operating properly to pro-
tect their beneficiaries. The scheme
was changed, and the requirement of
contribution was imposed. 1t was this
| +.
Pritchett to say that mo pension
machinery, however we'll planned, can
protect the man who lacks self con-
troll to devote a small part of his
earnings consistently to the protec-
tion of himself and his dependents"
DR.. Pritchett points out that there
are other considerations than the eco
nomic ones, underlying good pension
systems. Preservation of freedom OF
action, as well as self respect, is
essential for the professional person
Contractual obligations instead OIL
charity make for self respect, and
thrift is a constituent in this regard
The right of withdrawal with proper
recovery of the contributors equity
in the pension fund is desirable, but
there are conditions, not mentioned
by Dr. Pritchett, which should attach
to such right of withdrawal, if the
employing governmental agency itsel
is to be properly safeguarded.
The largest single point of DR.. Prit
chett's conclusions after long ex
perience with the Carnegie pension
system, is his emphasis upon thrift a.
an essential of benefits. He excoriate!
the Federal government, which, while
paying out huge sums for soldiers
pensions, has made no adequate pro
vision for retiring it's civil servants
Political pressure, he declares, ha
provided the soldier pension. Blu
the civil servants suffer gravely fo
lack of similar provision, baset
soundly upon beneficiaries' thrift.

used, it has shown excellent results
is a sign, in the opinion of the medical
association experts that the first and
most difficult step has already been
achieved in the eventual conquest Of
the disease.
A time may come when poliomelitis
will be as completely subdued, med
ically, as diphtheria now is. In the
meantime it has been discovered and
well authenticated that the use of a
blood serum from a patient who has
recovered from the disease, intra-
muscularly will limit its course and,
if administered soon enough will
usually prevent the subsequent de-
struction of nerve cells that means
paralysis.
The successful use of this serum
depends upon an early diagnosis in
the pre-paralytic stage which only the
doctor can do. Any illness with fever,
a slight stiffness of the neck, head
ache and gastro-intestinal disturb
ances should be reported to the doc
vi iIihiCuidtcls, PAL tlCuidlly III SuUl-
mer when poliomyelitis is prevalent.
The disease presents a fairly typical
picture by which the doctor can tell
what to expect.
The fact that there are many cases
of polio" that do not develop the
typical paralysis and therefore are
neither diagnosed nor isolated makes
control of the disease difficult
For all parents, the things to re-
member are:
Protect your children by cleanliness
and care from infections of all sorts.
Keep them away from anyone who
is sick.
Call the doctor Immediately If they
are sick themselves. Probably it
won't be poliomyelitis. But if it is,
the doctor will know and he will be
able to administer this serum treat
ment at the time when it will be most
effective in preventing the dread
paralysis OF the disease.

HEALTH HINTS

St. Paul, Minnesota-The questions
what is the serum treatment for poll
omyelitis? How effective is it? When
should it be administered, are an
swered briefly in today's bulletin from
the Minnesota State Medical associa-
ton.
No contagious disease of children
is so feared and dreaded as this one
generally known as infantile paralysis
The fact that there is a treatment
which offers great hope of prevent
ing the development of the paralysis
that often follows, is cited as. one of
the glories of modern medical science
There are still difficulties in the
way involved chiefly in securing the
serum used and administering it at
the precise moment when it will be
effective. But the fact that, properly
