Kid Chocolate stopped Lew Field

last Thursday eve. This is the third
time that Chocolate had whipped
Feldman. The crowd was small. The
promoter took it on the chin for a
few cribs. Chocolate started out
slowly. missing Feldman, taking one
and landing one every now and
then. Chocolate usually fights ag--
gressively, right from the beginning
and seldom misses his rim. In the
7th round a spark Of life came into
Chocolate and it was woe unto Field
man. Chocolate ducked, sidestepped,

KEEP GOOD TIMES COMING

Judging from reports better times are on the way.
The job ahead Is TO keep them coming. Action is needed
to hasten the ultimate arrival. Many more men must be
put to work 20 they can buy the food and clothing their
families need. And it must be done with less than the
can be accomplished by adopting a policy of devoting the
public funds 10 the most useful and most necessary affairs.
For instance, in the matter Of roads and streets,
surfaces are essential. These will be most useful when
the type of surface chosen provides the greatest volume of
people with good roads. AS one authority says, eve all
prefer plush-seated imousines to Fords, but we do not
prefer to ride nine miles on horseback through the mud

make it all the way over a cheap road in a Ford"
Ten miles of satisfactory" surface is much better
than nine miles of mud or dust and one mile of excellent

THE DANGEROUS DRIVING AGE

A serious responsibility rests on parents whose

women the vital necessity for care, courtesy and obedience
to traffic rules at all times. Themost dangerous age for

20 last year, 80 were involved in accidents. From 20 to 20,
36 drivers out Of one thousand had mishaps; there were
27 in the ages of 80 to 80; twenty in the ages of 40 to 49,
and Is out Of one thousand in the ages of so and over.

THE RUBBISH PEDDLERS

In a recent article in the Atlantic Monthly, John
Maynard Keynse, one Of the foremost economists Of the
world, said that in the United States it is almost incon-
ceivable what rubbish a public man has to utter today"
The reason for that is that most public men, partic-
ularly those in high office, minimize the intelligence of
the public. They have seen themselves and others swept
into office on platforms consisting mainly or solely Of
ancient platitudes, sonorous evasions, polysyllabic mis-
representations, and appeals to local p~rejudices. They
have then acted accordingly.
The public is largely to blame for this condition,
not because Of lack of intelligence, not because Of a laissez
faire attitude toward the business Of government. If the
average well-informed citizen paid as little critical atten-
he would be bankrupt. There are grounds for hope that
present conditions have awakened the voter. They have
tended to make US think-to look at government and gov
the depression has been worth it's cost. And the result will
be that a good many office-holders whose stock in trade is
bunk, will be looking for new jobs in the near future.

Dear Sir:
Your letter August 18th.
We do not discriminate against col
ored people when employing people to
work in our plant. We have two col
ored men now in u employ and will
certainly make no objections to en-
ploying others when and if they can
be used.
Just at this time it is impossible to
take on any new help. In fact, it is
very difficult for US to keep our old
employees on TIE payroll.
We are in full sympathy with the
problem of the colored people. They
should be encouraged and helped in
every possible way. We shall always
endeavor to do our part in this work.
Thanking you kindly for your let

The Vital Issue

Washington (CNS) The Richmond
(Va.) Planet Americas oldest Col
ored Weekly" in its leading editorial
October Is, says:
1T is the opinion Of this newspa-
per that a vote for Hoover and Curtis
offers the best way out for the en-
battled business man, worker and
farmer, regardless Of color or race"
Discussing what it terms "The Wit
al Issue" the Planet says
"The most impressive paragraph in
President Hoover'S Des Moines
speech and the one deserving Of the
most thoughtful consideration was
uttered after a graphic and detailed
description Of the perils which Desets
this nation and reads as follows:
Let no nan tell you that it could
not be worse.
It could be 50 much worse that
these days now, distressing as they
are, would look like veritable prosper
ity.'
"The vital issue Of this campaign
revolves around this statement. II
Mr.. Hoover has held the lines, resist.
ed the attack and is now successfully
counter-attacking a worldwide de-
preston which destroyed our pros.
perity, threw millions Of men out ot
work and threatened the very foun-
dation Of Jul government. he is en-
titled to reelection, and all thought

On This
Occasion
Just few thoughts py the Editor
on things Material and Immaterial

God moves in mysterious
ways his wonders to perform. y
This apt quotation was forcibly
illustrated on Monday when
the airplane crash removed
from our city four outstanding
young men and plunged the
citizens into mourning over
their tragic death. All have
been engaged in business here,
Dutch" Fuller only for a year,
the others since they became
old enough to enter into pur-
suits after leaving school. All
were prosperous business men
and considered Al in their
line. A brief vacation from
their several duties was in
prospect and the boys looked
forward to their attendance at
the National Aircraft Show at
Detroit this week. With a
light heart they took off here
early Monday morning for the
flight to Detroit. About an
hour after, all were cold in
death. Fate is cruel at times
and inconsistent as well.
Otherwise, some who have
been perfectly willing to die
for years would have been
taken and these sorely missed
young men would have been
left to carry on.

Suomi Synod League
Meeting of Interest.

The Suomi Synod Luther League met
at their regular monthly meeting on
Tuesday at the church parlors. Two
new members, Mrs. William and Mrs.
John Palmgard, joined the League and
were enthusiastically received. A short
business meeting was held with presi-
dent Myrtle Maxi presiding.
After the meeting fifteen prizes were
ratified. These prizes, for which the
League members and directors sold
tickets, were the contributions of per-
sons and business houses of the city.
The League offers them their whole
hearted thanks for these contributions.
A pleasing lunch was served to guests
and members of the League by a COM
mittee composed of Myrtle Maxi, Mrs.
Ida Erickson, Otto Sarkipato and
Archie Riikola.
The next meeting of the League will
be held on May 3rd.
