Safety Contest Report

Announcement of results in the
1882 national traffic safety contest
are expected to make about March
18th, a report to the state highway
department from the National SAT-
ETY. Council states. A number of
Minnesota cities entered the con-
test by formal action of their mum
icipal authorities early in 1882, but
only few, the report states, have
made the necessary periodical re-
turns to enable their being given
contest ratings. A total of 442
towns and cities throughout the
United States have participated in
the current years contest. A new
contest, to begin January first, is
announced for 1888 by the National
Safety Council.

There are about 1000 mentally
disturbed veterans and 1000 tuber.
cular service men, whose disabili-
ties have not been connected with
their service, whom the government
is attempting to cure in veterans
hospitals" Mr.. Lohmann pointed
out.
Those sick and disabled veterans,
he warned, will be thrown upon the
public if the Economy League pro-
gram goes through. State and
county institutions, already over
crowded, could care for only por-
ton. The liberty of the mentally
afflicted soldiers would menace the
safety Of hundreds of Minnesota
communities and prove an unsolv-
able problem in thousands of little
homes.
For the tubercular veterans"
Commander Lohmann continued,
repeal of their free disqualification
would mean for many sentence of
death which, indirectly, would thus
be declared by the very government
they fought to defend. Further
more, repeal of the 'persumptive'
feature of the law would still fur
ther empty the government hospit-
ais, because thousands could no
longer claim service-connected dis
abilities.
$50 the terrible burden created
by the curtailment of government
disqualification would be immeasur-
ably increased by the withdrawal
of service connection from these
groups. Repeal would also cause
the loss to Minnesota business men
as we'll as to the veterans of thous-
ands Of dollars now paid them
monthly as government compensa-
tion-because the majority Of
these veterans are unable to earn a
dollar for themselves or their FAM
ilies."
Aside from the cruel distress
which such action would bring up
on the disabled veterans and their
families, Mr.. Lohmann declared, 1t
would tremendously increase the
local community problems through
out Minnesota and the nation.

agricultural agent to determine
their yield. On two locations in the
strip of land planted to e fifty

eraged 28.8 blu. or an increase of
1913 per cent. This is creditable
showing in view Of the fact that
the farms were widely scattered in
rainfall while some were grown
under very dry conditions in the
west part of Stearns county.

double cross IKE corn will be locat-
ed by the county agent that can be
purchased by anyone looking for a

 COLD FEET PREVENT WAI1L SMILES.
 This Is a bad winter to get cold feeti
 Cold feet undermine your mos rale terribly. If you only realize it, chic depends on Q sounds firm foundation. Foot comfort 10 often the basis of Q winning smile.
 Hot floors are the cause of a lot of foot trouble. The solution to this problem lies in hardening your let against swelling and oyer sen- aitiveness. Cold foot baths, foot baths with medicinal soaps pre- pared for just this purpose, salt rubs and plenty of foot exercise barefooted in your own room these are some precautions that every woman who knows she has feet sloulu take.
 The best foot exercises consist in stretching all the muscles that are not given enough exercise m walking.
 Imagine that you are a child wriggling your toes gleefully m a nice squashy mud puddle. Just l try to squeeze all the mud up be- II tween your boC6p turn SCNA @Cc~ this way and that to kick 1t up over your insteps, grind your heels l down into 1t. If mud doesn't strike your imagination right, then dreamily imagine you are on . nice warm bench and work your toes around in the sand. Continue this toe-wriggling ex- ercise, standing on one foot, work | ing the other for couple of min utes, at least. Now, stand on one | foot and imagine you are trying to kick every speck of mud or sand | off the other foot. Shake the foot, wriggle the toes of the suspended foot. Shake the whole leg from the hip down. Then change feet and shake the other.
 All this starts circulation that is much needed by cold feet in winter. It also limbers up the feet and relaxes them. Be sure your shoes are big enough to let them stay relaxed. Tight shoes. particularly shoes that are not long enough, are directly respon- sible forsome cold feet.
