pletion of the paving of Highway
No. IA from Gaylord to Marshall,
Tuesday, whit a day of speeches,
races, contests and concessions which
closed with dance.
Magnus Johnson delivered the
principal address in the early after
noon, avoiding political issues but
urging stricter attention to the prin-
cipals of democracy by individual
citizens.
He spoke of early life in Minneso-
ia and Of his experiences since he

Joseph Coursoll of Redwood Falls,

after being introduced by T. F. Reed.
The 83-year-old man, dressed as an
Indian warrior, spoke of the years
when the Indians and Whites roam
ed the trails which preceded the high
ways of today.
Highway Men Speak
Two men from the state highway
department, H. E. Chard and H. M.
Motl, were also on the program. Mr..
Chard, division superintendent, ex-
planned the construction of a road
and the kinds of materials needed.
He said that in the few hours he had
been in Redwood Falls he was ask
ed several times why the depart
ment did not use Redwood county
gr-yel for the work here. This, he
said, is because gravel found here
expands and contracts with the
weather.
Mr.. Motl, who has been with the
highway department for more than
20 years, surprised and pleased the
crowd with the statement that Red
wood county has been the leading
county in the state for years in the
construction of secondary roads.

OLD SOFA WINS
$3.50 PRIZE

SOUTH BOSTON, Va, March
30.-An old living-room sofa that
had been in his family for well
over 100 years today brought a
check for $3.50 to j. H. Green, an
Alton, Va, farmer.
The sofa, now in Chicago,
probably to be exhibited at the
worlds fair in that city next
year, was declared the winner in
national contest conducted by
the Household Science Institute
here to find the oldest piece of
mohair covered furniture in the
United States.
The prize was contributed by
Sanford Mills, Sanford, Me.
Green's sofa won over 5000 en-
tries. It's frame and mohair vel
vet covering are in excellent con-
dition.
The "oId Greene place" here
dates back to 1889 and the
Greene family traces its begin
nings to the time of King
Charles II of England when mo-
hair velvets were almost the ex-
elusive possession of royalty.

Protest against an advertised

been made to officers of the
league by the Buy-in-Washington
Council.
In a letter to the league E. j..
Murphy, president of the council,
says:
with business conditions
here not at their best, this
bringing in Of outside mer-
chants will not improve cOndi-
tiOns."
According to Mr.. Murphy, the
council is confident that the
league, when making plans for
its spring exhibits, had not taken
into consideration the fact that
in favoring an out-of-town mer-
chant it was taking money out
of Washington which should be
spent here. He says:

1t was therefore decided to merge the

The Philharmonic, which numbers
