TRUE SPORTSMANSHIP

Not only should the subject OF
sportsmanship from the standpoint of
that quality in sports be adhered to,
but it is quality that helps us in
our daily life.
The thing that makes a genuine
sportsman stand head and shoulders
above the rank and file is the fact
that he knows how to win or lose
gracefully. The true sportsman never
tries to take all the credit for having
won, nor does he place responsibility
onto some one else for his loss The
sporting attitude toward life is one
of the soundest PHILOSOPHERS Of living.
Each should try his best to win but
If he loses, he should not give up but
come back for more" People usual
ly get whatever rewards their indi-
vidual ability, character and industry
entitle them to. The true sportsman
never knows when he is defeated. He
never accepts defeat as final but con-
tinues to strive onward until the end
of the game. He observes the rules
of the game, even though he may not
like them. This type of man is a true
sportsman and is the one the fans will
be with in defeat as we'll as in victory.

to turn out those in office is naturally
to be appreciated.

ical policies for which l stand and
for which so many of Pine county
citizens are working. Without their
enthusiasm, their work, and their
earnest desire to see the peoples pro-
gram adopted there could have been
no victory for me, nor for so many
other progressives.

THE ARMISTICE

1t is fourteen years tomorrow since
the signatures of the belligerent pow
ers in the great World war were
placed on an agreement to stop fight
ing.
1t has been fourteen years of heart
aching struggle to pay for that great
catastrophe in the way of material
calculating and it will take longer to
forget the loved ones who went down
try and for what they thought was the
protection of their beloved. Theirs
was the supreme sacrifice. Taken in
the bud of their manhood and yes.
womanh od-for there were many
women taken in the turmoil of that
mad scramble i'm an, effort to prove
that might makes right. They gave
all they had. and was it enough? Yes
it was enough to end the war and to
bring victory on one side and chaos
and Punishment on the other. 1t has
ever been thus. Wars have been
fought and men have died but all
there existed afterward was heart
aches for the masses and pecuniary
gain for the few. Barbarians used to
take what they wanted by force but
civilized countries should be above
that method. Some one has said

knowing the conditions. Although
the writer is not an authority on sa-
looms it can be said here without
bOasting that he and many other per-
sons in the community know more
about the local conditions and those
in surrounding communities than the
pastor ever dreamt of. How can the
pastor know anything about the pres
ent conditions, when he goes from
church to the Ladies' Aid, and then
home and back to choir meets, ETC.?
Besides, it can also be said that it
is the duty of the pastor to preach
the gospel of Jesus Christ on his pull
pit and if he may want to introduce
politics and prohibition into his SER
mons he should give his own views
and respect the views and opinions of
others. even if they do not absolutely
coincide with his own. This paper
shall go on to express its candid
views on whatever subject it may
please in spite of DR.. A. N. Nelson or
his like. This is a free country and
the right of free press is included.
We know the truth hurts DR.. Nelson,
but our advice to you is to know the
truth and the truth shall set We free!"

SEASONABIE HAZARDS
(The National Safety CounciD

Inc NatlOnal Safety COunclD
Failing leaves, i'm addition to sound
ing the death-knell of summer, should
also remind us that driving hazards
too, are undergoing seasonable
change. Those very leaves present
new danger. When they become
wet they form slippery surface on
the roadway. That means brakes
must be mechanically perfect and
speeds must be cut down in those
residential districts where nature has
laid down this treacherous carpet.
Dusk is falling earlier, and that
dangerous period between daylight
and darkness is coming while there
are still children on the streets.
Heavy fOgs, light mists and rains
are characteristic of autumn. Look
to the perfect working order of your
windshield wiper. One of these
mornings there will be a thick frost
on the pavement possibly a light
snowfall-which Old Sol will prompt
ly convert into another skidding haz-
ard.
Yes, changing seasons bring about
change in common driving hazards.
And the careful operator will regu-
late his driving habits accordingly.

STRANGERS GET THE BACON
(Ortonville independently

Over at Milbank recent the Bene-
VIOLENT society of the Congregations
church was left holding the sack for
SIS when lady and some gentlemen,
all strangers, flew the coop after sub
hitting a proposition by which the
ladies could make some easy money"
The easy money was to sell soap
remover and this, mind you, in direct
competition with the merchants Of
Milbank.
We can imagine that the Milbank
merchants are shedding cupfuls of
tears over the ladies' losses.
Isn't it strange that people living
together as one large family will in
variably place their explicit trust and
confidence in strangers in preference
to folks of their own home commun-
ity?
People who won't trust their local
will invest savings in most any fly
by-night scheme of an outsider. lose
their money and say nothing about it.
People who won't trust heir local
merchants, oft times, will send their
orders to mail order concerns or the
large department stores of the cities.
They'll pay postage coming and going
plus big price for merchandise no
better than they could have gotten at
home, but think they were extremely
fortunate in getting a bargain"
Merchants, many of them, will do
h.;
printing needs. They'll fall for some
zap out-Of-tOwn, get cheap work, at
a cheap price, cash on delivery
They'll want the home town news
paper to carry the message of the
towns AOings, bring the people to
town with them. but spend money
which rightfully belongs to the print
shop in their town with some out-of-
town concern.
1t may be that we are wrong, but
our explanation of this practice on the
part of the housewife as we'll as the
merchant and the investor is that
each thinks he is saving money by
lodging" his neighbor. He is afraid
his brother businessman is going to
make a nickel profit on him. He
can't stand to see this done. That
would be terrible. The housewife
thinks the hometown merchant is
rObbing her; the investor sinks his
money in schemes far distant because
distant pastures look greener, and the
merchant, in many instances, does the
same thing.
If local firms show signs of prog
ress, up goes the wall that they are
making money. Jealousy enters the
hearts of many. But if a large de-
partment store in the cities builds up
big store, shows progress. no one
gives a thought that they must have

DIR. NELSON As A POLITICIAN

DIR. A. N. Nelson. pastor of the Chi

made a very serious mistake on the
pulpit last Sunday when in a sermon
on prohibition he advised members of
his congregation that they should not
have the local paper in their homes
because of its editorial stand against
the 18th amendment. This paper has
never advocated the return of saloons,
but criticizes the amendment as it
now stands and the poor enforcement
of the same. 1t can, is and will be
justly criticized and if the Center
City pastor wishes any information as
to the fallacy of it we refer him to
the reports of the Wickersham Com

THE NATION GOES TO THE POLLS
The MINNEAPOLIS Tribunel

THE NATION GOES TO THE POLLS
(The Minneapolis Tribune)
Nov. s, 1882
The campaign is over and the coun-
try goes to the polls today to express
its will in national. state and local
elections.
The army of registered voters Is
set at 47.0O0.OOO. but In the light Of
past experience, it is certainty that
those who actually exercise their
right of suffrage will fall far short
of that total.
Millions who have registered will
not vote. and millions, more who were
eligible to vote did not even register.
The stay-at- home voter in this cOun-
try could elect presidents and gov
ernors if he chose. He could deter
mine the political complexion of both
houses of congress. he could decide
the makeup of state legislatures, city
councils and countless boards and
commissions if he would only bestir
himself. But the stay-at-hOme, either
through apathy. ignorance or skepti-
cism, prefers to disenfranchise him
self and because. he does, he leaves
to others decisions which every con-
sideration of self-interest demands he
make himself.
1t is to be doubted that the hack
neyed election day appeal to the voter
to fulfill his obligation of citizenship
at the polls exerts any great influ-
ence. When the stay-at-hOme decides
to vote it is usually because he has
been reused from his lethargy by
some issue which touches him closely,
and not because he has been sud-
denly awakened to a full sense of his
civic responsibilities. This does not
mitigate the fact. however, that such
responsibilities exist, or that en-
lightened and progressive government
rests. in the last analysis, upon their
conscientious discharge. The best
base for any democracy is an intellf-
gent and we'll informed majority
opinion as it is expressed through the
ballot box. and that opinion is only
to be had In proportion to the interest
and thought which the country as a
whole exhibits. on election day, in the
affairs of government.
A large vote. in and of itself, is not
the best goal that democracy may
set itself. But a large vote which
represents the honest and thoughtful
judgment of each individual, and
which is the outgrowth of collective
sense of keen responsibility for gov
eminent. is something we'll worth
striving for. A democracy which
builds upon such foundation may
sometimes make mistakes, it may
sometimes meet with establishment
and disappointment, but it will at
least be heading. after all is said and
done. along the only road that leads
to better government.

CHANCE TAKERS

Between 1855 and 4:29 on a recent
afternoon the drivers of 13 motor We
hicles dashed across the Northern
Pacific tracks a half-mile west of
Willard with total disregard of the
Stop requirement or of what might
be coming at high speed on the rail-
road tracks, check taken at that
location disclosed. The crossing is a
dangerous one. Thirteen did not prove
an unlucky number in this particular
instance, but it might very easily

take cOmmOn-sense precautions at
railroad crossings.
