Some Sense To II

During the winter fair and potato
show now being held at Park River in
Walsh county, two contests are being
staged which prove that American en-
tertainment Is not entirely dedicated
10 artistic Or useless things.
The first competition is that to as
certain whether married or unmarried
women make the best potato peelers.
A standard Of potato peeling on which
. scoring may be made has been
adopted and picked groups Of married
and single women will enter the con-
test.
On first thought one might choose
the married women to win because OF
their longer experience, but against
this factor must be weighed the agil-
ity and nimbleness Of younger hands
The arguments over the contest are
reported to be heated and only an
unbiased decision by the judges will
tell the result.
The married and unmarried men
win compete in potato-cutting con-
test, an important business in an area
where the potato crop leads in agri-
cultural production. It all came about
when q committee Of married men is
sued . challenge to group of un-
married SWANS In the community
uentioning them by name. As for the
potato-psslers, the rules have been
earofilly standardized BY potato-cut-
ting experts and it is fair field with

They all laughed and struggled
from the table. Ellen became aware
that the room was stifiingly hot.

returned to harass her. What was
to happen to them? The insurance
money SO painfully scraped together
had been spent for an evenings

was all very we'll but where was the
rent to come from?
When they wandered from the
debris in the dining room to the
stuffy living room, she moved to the
window and stared down at the
noisy street. Children were playing
and screaming there while mothers
and fathers sat YEARLY on the
stoops, tanning themselves with
newspapers they would later toss
into the cutters. Ellen could not
distinguish Mike from the distance
but she could hear his boastful
voice. She felt an inward pang

The Lindbergh Baby


News that Charles Augustus Lind
bergh, Jr., has been snatched from his
cradle will shock everyone in America,
particularly every father and mother.
The remark is frequently heard that
the loss OF their child under such ter
rifying and mysterious circumstances
is no harder on the Lindberghs than
on less famous folk. and this is true.
Nevertheless, the prominence Of the
great birdman and his wife bring
home to us the malicious cruelty of
kidnapping more completely than
would be the case. with almost any
other baby in the land.
Some may say that this is the price
which the Lindberghs must pay for
fame and wealth. If so, it is too high
for any parent to accept in return for
wealth and comfort.
The case brings home to us all the
utter heartlessness of all kidnap-
ers and particularly those who
kidnap children. To snatch from his
ordinary pursuits and hold for ransom
an adult is bad enough but the pros
pect Of an innocent baby in the hands
of monsters is sickening.
The sympathy Of the nation will go
cut to the Lindberghs and there may
% . better than average chance that
The perpetrators Of the crime will be
captured and brought to justice. If
SO, the very prominence which may
have caused the ktdnapers to select
the Lindbergh baby as their victim
may be responsible.
No detective of fiction rivals the
American public If its interest is
aroused. Everywhere throughout the
land folks will be on the lookout for
suspicious-appearing persons with a
tousle- baby. Thousands of
clues will be unearthed by an inter
ested citizenry. Thousands will be
found to be false, but at last one may
appear which will lead to recovery of
the infant and punishment of his
snatcherS.
But this is little comfort to Indy
and Anne in their hour Of torment,
for always in the back of their minds
will be the fact that many babies
have been kidnapped and have never
been heard OF again.
