ICE CALLED BEST
IN SEVERAL YEARS
Ia Men Fill Large StorehOuse;
Ten Start Work on Supply
for Lauterbach's

The J. A. Storts ice house crew
yesterday morning started filling the
Lauterbach ice house after complete
ing the task of filling the large one
on the west side of the lake Thurs
day. 1t took eight days to fill the big
ice house which holds 1900 tons.
The ice is being cut into chunks 22
inches by 80 inches and is packed in
layers in the house. Mr.. Storts says
the ice is in the best shape this year
than it has been for several years.
Last year the ice was soft and broke
into chunks and was hard to cut into
large enough pieces for storage. He
says it has been hard all winter and
the last freeze made it ideal.
Fourteen men have been working
to fill the big house and ten will be
employed in filling the Lauterbach
, ice shousessuiMr. -Storts also plans to
pack about 300 tons on the north side
of the big storehouse across the river.

CHILD'S REST VARIES
WITH AGE EXPERIMENTS
AT UNIVERSITY SHOW

Studying the sleeping rhythm OF
children, the Institute of Child Well
fare at the University of Minnesota
has found that child's rest varies
with the months of the year and that
the age of four years produces the
quietest sleep.
1t also was found that boys rest
more quietly over the night as a
whole and GO to sleep more promptly
than girls.
Study for 100 nights of the sleep
ing patterns" of Is children between
and 6 years old brought these con-
illusions and showed also that chill
dren's sleep is less restless than that
of adults.
The experiment showed that night
sleep follows typical pattern. The
longest single rest period comes right
after the child begins his slumber,
lasting usually about 80 minutes, fol-
lowed by rest periods of decreasing
length. The child is most restless
just before awakening.
The study was undertaken by DR..
Chester Garvey, now of the Yale In
stitute Of Human Relations, as part
of the Institutes research in deter
mining characteristics of the pre-
school child. instruments were at
tached to specially constructed beds
! and record the movements of the
children during their sleeping hours.
Individual adults have extremely
! different sleep patterns while chill
dren's are much alike, DIR. Garvey
learned. "Children go to sleep most
readily in February and March," he
said, "most tardily in April, May and
June, rather quickly in July, August
and September, more slowly in Oct
ober and November, and still more
slowly in December and January.

sleep than either age two Or four
| Age four is the most quiet.
"There is very little change ii

Although the older children sleeI
considerably less than the younger
ones in the spring, there are some re-

FIRE CHIEF ASKS
COOPERATION OF
FIRE OBSERVERS

Motorists are sked to obey the
ordinance with reference to following
fire apparatus and otherwise Interior
ing with the department in its efforts
to combat fires, in a statement issued
Wednesday by Joe Corbett, chief of
Redwood Falls firemen.
The statement reads as follows:
A very troublesome problem which
the chief must deal with is that OF
motorists who follow the fire depart.
ment to fires and quite often try to
get to the blaze before the apparat-
US. Not only is this practice produc-
tive of accidents through collisions
with fire engines, but also, when
large number of automobiles join in
the procession when the alarm
sounds, the work of the fremen is
badly hampered and the apparatus
prevented from getting to work
quickly.
Our truck drivers have hydrants to
spot in order to lay the shortest line
of hose to the fire. With cars parked
on both sides of the street and cars
coming at them, they often have
to drive to the left side of the street
and make left and U turns, as the
location of the blaze may be. Try not
to make it tough for them.
The mayor of our city has issued
this order to his police department:
ARREST any autoist who follows with
in 800 feet of the fire apparatus on
the way to the fire; any autoist who
fails to obey the law which requires
autoists to pull to the right side near
the curb when the fire apparatus is
approaching and arrest every autolst
who parks his car within the block
while the fire is in progress"
The mayor in commenting on this
order said that the fire chief of this
city had informed him that the ap-
paratus answering an alarm of fire
travels at a speed of 40 miles an
hour. Therefore, the mayor remark
ed, "Any one beating or even main
tanning a position behind TIE appar-
atus is violating the speed limit and
is liable to punishment"
The fire and police departments of
this city should be prepared to en-
force the rules forbidding the follow
ing of fire apparatus without fear or
favor. If it is once understood that
this offense is one for which the
offender cannot be excused, no matter
who he is or how prominent his posi-
ton and that no amount of influence
will count in renting the punish
ment for the violation, it will be much
easier to put a stop to the practice
! A few sure punishments for the of.
tense will quickly put an end to the
| problem.-Fire Chief.

Building Pictures
at Commercial Club

Fifty members of the Redwood
Falls Commercial club attended the
special meeting held at the club
rooms Monday night at which a re-
preventative of the Nelson Construc-
ton company of Mankato gave talk
and showed slides on how buildings
are constructed.
The representative had no object
in showing his illustrations to the
Commercial club other than the
private interest of each club member.
He came here through the efforts OF
the Farmers Elevator company.
He had slides of the tallest build
ing in the world, the new 80 story
Empire State Building, showing It's
construction from the beginning to
the finish. He also showed pictures
of the workers hauling huge steel
bars and other equipment through
the streets of New York without
serious congestion of traffic. Fifty
three thousand tons of steel were used
and it was finished in eight months,

He said engineers are now working
on a plan to build houses at the
factory and ship them to the buyer,
all furnished with heating and plumb
ing fixtures. The houses will come
in parts and will have only to be set
up when delivered. He made no
estimate as to the time it will take
to perfect this new plan, but talked
as if it would be soon.
For the first time since the Com
mercial club changed its date OF
meeting, it will assemble Monday
night at the club rooms. The regular
business meeting will be held and
committee reports will be given.

 Washington, Nov 10.-CUP)- The new democratic administration is expected by informed observers here to follow established lines of American foreign policy, save on the tariff.

 With less than two months to go beforeshe hands over the reins of state government to Colonel Herbert H. Lehman, whom Roose- welt describes as that good right arm of mine," there is at least one trip of some length to be taken by him.
 He plans to go to Warm Springs, Ga, for about week, during which he will attend the annual meeting of the board of trustees of the Warm Springs foundation, an organization that operates the sanitarium there flor persons suf- Nfering from infantile paralysis.
 He will return immediately thereafter to remain in Albany un. til the first of the year.
