The Dregel boy was brought to Nor

about two hours later. He was bad

little chance to recover.
At the time of the accident the car
containing the boy was travelling
north carrying four other Fairfax
boys in addition to the driver, A. NJ.

to aid him in advertising. Presumably
the lighter car with its six occupants
struck the east bound car as it cross

causing the injuries to the occupants.

were cut and bruised in the collision
but none suffered serious injuries.

city, are on their way to Alaska, 60
ing by way of the Inside Passage"
to Skagway and then across the open
sea. They left the United States the
10Th of July and it is expected the
journey to Alaska and back will oc-
cupy about two weeks.
Writing of their trip in a recent
letter they said, "The boat we are
travelling on (the Aleutian) is the
largest going to Alaska and has been
in service only since this spring
when the Wrangell Narrows were
widened to accommodate its size.
"From the Midnight Sum our ship
daily, we read that you are suffering
from another heat wave. We can
hardly take time to write letters with
the beautiful scenery all day long
and entertainments at night. We
have seen and experienced thus far
everything from snow-capped noun
tains, canyons, and glaciers to land
slides, forest fires and whales.
owe make our first stop tomorrow
morning at Ketchican then another
in the afternoon at Wrangell. Tues
day morning we stop at Juneau and
then we take to the open sea for
about Is hours."

Wind and rain at Clements, We'd

of dollars worth of property as well
as causing considerable damage to
farm crops. The storm struck there
just before noon with heavy rains fol-

The roof of the L. H. Raddatz

rain that fell afterwards. Nearly
the complete stock of the store was

IA More Days Until Close of
Third PeriOd-Extra 500

on Second or Extension
Subscriptions Payments in
This Period Only
fourteen More DAYS."


These three words have a potent
meaning when we consider the i'm
portance of the result of the Redwood
Gazette's big subscription automobile
and gold campaign, which is nearing
a conclusion.
The last of the big votes will I'M
doubtedly be the deciding actor in
determining the winners of the splen-
did array of prizes which has dazzled
the eyes of the entire community.
The end of the race draws near.
Candidates for the big prizes are
reaching every home in this and ad-
joining counties. There are only a
few days left to win beautiful big
motor car and also a Special Gold
Prize. It's battle to the last. Some
are not letting up for one minute in
their endeavor to get as many votes
as possible. Some are dropping out.
The race is narrowing down. Some
PEOPLE are certainly scared by rum
,ors and "bluffs."
Who Is Your FavOrite?
For the past few weeks candidates
have been engaged in accommodating
votes and during this time The Red
wood Gazette's campaign has gained
fame that is widespread. This is the
most liberal prize winning event ever
inaugurated in this section of the
state.
The efforts and diligence of the
past few weeks will be crowned with
an avalanche of votes that will be a
surprise to thousands of people in
this section. This is the time for
candidates to hurl themselves with
vim and vigor into the fray.
The Gazette is justly proud OF the
candidates that are competing with
might and main in this exciting "Bat-
tie of Ballots" 1t means that each
community has chosen it's brightest
and most energetic leader for its re-
preventative and these favorites are
fulfilling the expectations of their
hundreds of friends and supporters
in their respective communities.
The race as the finish of the Big
Third Period approaches is truly a
"Neck and Neck" affair. Remember,
no candidate has any material ad-
!, iantage over the remainder at pre-
sent and the amount of subscriptions
that each is able to turn in before
Tuesday night may tell the tale.
Now For the Finish
Now for the whirl-wind finish.
Now for the sensations, and the sur
prises. These are the days that will

DELINQUENT AUTO
TAX COLLECTIONS !
TO BE MADE SOON
Unrep0rted Cars to Be Taxed;
Sheriff to Serve Warrants
After August 1
81 ARE DELINQUENT
Redwood Falls Heads List.
Some Have Probably Been
Junked But Not Reported

With 81 delinquents in the county,
the task of ferreting out the DISPOSE
ton of automobiles on which the Sec
rotary of state reports no taxes have
been paid for last year, is now up to
the county authorities.
Mike Holm, secretary of state, has
certified to w. G. Weldon, clerk of the
Redwood county district court, names
of 81 persons in Redwood county,
who are reported to be deliquent N
the payments of automobile taxes for
1929. These assessments will be
turned over to the sheriff for collec-
tion, but only a small portion of the
cars are expected to be located.
Under the provision of the state
motor registration law, these delin-
quencies must be adjusted on or be-
fore the first day of August. If this
is not done, warrants will be placed
in the hands of the sheriff with or
ders for him to make immediate col
lection, so that those who are listed
as delinquents and are really not de-
serving of such classification, should
take prompt steps to notify the Sec
rotary of states office of their true
status.
Very few motor car owners, who
junk their vehicles think it necessary
to report this procedure to the Sec
rotary of states office, but such is,
nevertheless, a requirement. Those,
who are listed as delinquents through
failure to report junked or sold cars
should report this fact to the local
county officials or have an affidavit
made out at their garage or bank,
and forwarded to the proper authori-
ties.
Those, who are actually delinquent
in the payment of their motor license
fees can save additional expense by
paying such licenses before warrants
have been placed in the hands of the
sheriff, for if such service is neces-
sary by that official, costs and mile
age will be added.
The sheriff, county attorney and
clerk of court constitute board to
check over the list Of delinquents and
anyone who has filed a satisfactory
answer showing that their car was
junked, removed from the state or
otherwise destroyed prior to January
1, 1880, will be removed from the list
on August 1. For all who haven't
reported, warrants will be issued ard
delivered to the sheriff for collection.

Approaching the little play, one OF
the men produced nickel and bet
against the boy.
"Now, Mister Cans, you'll win,

Little Johnnie was jubilant now
that his money was bet on the cham

"All right, little fellow, here is a
dime to spend all for yourself. Now,

And little John Larkins skipped
off down the street, leaving Cans

boy.

logs, with grass roofs, were relics Of
the days when the great Barre plan
tation had swarmed with slaves. 1t
had been the slave section, and now
It served as the workers quarters.
These cabins were scattered out
haphazardly through the heavy woods
near the big cotton field, and they
were all occupied by itinerant cotton
pickers who came to harvest the crop.

The master boxer, Joe Cans, had
finished his work at Twin Oaks and
had gone to Baltimore before be-
ginning that tiresome trip across the
country when he was to fight MS
memorable battle with Nelson.
The Negro champion, as he talked
with his friends, paid no atteni on
to the thin little brown skinned lad
who, at mention of the name OF Joe
Cans, had left his play fellows to fol-
low this man. Jor would Cans ever
have noticed him had not the little
fellow deliberately placed himself in
front of the old master and EXTENDED
his hand in the same hammer that
the champions admirers had done.

summoning all of his courage to form
the words with which to address a
champion Gonna win?"

Carl soon learned that it was not
only work that brought the dark
peasants, but that they came to have
a good time as much as to earn
money.
On the way to the fields from the
cabins the men passed through a
large cleared circle set deep in the
woods. In the center few embers

before his strength was gone. made
his supreme effort separate Mel

the old master had visions of boy
who had bet his last penny because
he believed champion could not be
beaten.
1t was the thoughts of this boy in
particular and others in general who
had bet their money on him that
made the champion remain until
every bit of strength had ebbed. Cans
thought how willingly and enthusi-
astically Johnnie had gambled on
him. As the champion felt the first
pain of his dreaded disease shoot
