INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
By GEORG STRANDvOLD

An interlude in these surveys is ac-
counted for by a week spent at the
Century of Progress Worlds Fair,
Chicago-not without profit to an in
dividual who is always looking for
hopeful signs of international Coop
Grafton in peaceful pursuits.
If one were optimistic, one might
quite naturally feel elated at what is
to be seen in Chicago-that is, es-
pecially, from his particular view
pointer the Fair is the very
apotheosis of international collabora-
ton, of friendship among peoples.
Unfortunately, however, when one
is trained in the stern school which
teaches respect for facts, one cannot
very often be optimistic in looking at
world affairs; they have way of
shaping themselves in utter disregard
of the wishes of the common man.
This becomes patent again when
one thinks of the world economic con-
ference in London which for seven
teen days has been trying to find ways
and means of ending the crisis pre-
NdlcHI III dill COuuII 1cS"duu
to date, has found neither ways nor
means.
International Strife.
Geneva furnishes the concrete
warning against nationalism getting
the upper hand at international con-
ferences: At the disarmament con-
ferences every single earnest attempt
to achieve reduction and limitation
of ornaments has been frustrated be-
cause of nationalistic idealism. 1t
has been impossible for the delega-
tion-or the governments behind
them-to submerge their own par
ticular desires to the necessity of
doing something concrete by way Of
agreeing on disarmament.
A somewhat similar spirit rules at
the world economic London confer
ence where nationalism has become
so strong that it has even threatened
to hasten the sudden end of the meet
ing.
For the time being that danger is
once more somewhat remote, but the
spirit is still there, and, of course,
the conference will result in no sue
cess as long as the governments fail

HAS NOT CALLED AGAIN

Hans Halverson, Sandstone grocery
proprietor, who was slugged and
stabbed two weeks ago in his store,
has now recovered so far from the
rough experience that he is again
able to care for the wants of his GUS
toners back of the counter. While
the experience was little unpleas-

been worse. The loss of blood weak

DENHAM PICNIC
MERRY EVENT

brate Tenth Annual At
fair; Good Crowd.
BASEBALL Game Won by Den
ham Over Willow River
by II to II Score.

Hard times, depression, insufficient
prices, weather and crop conditions,
were all forgotten at the tenth annual
picnic of the Denham Farmers Co
operative Creamery Association which
was held at the Rundquist park near
Denham Saturday afternoon. 1t was
one of the best turnOutS at this an
nual gathering of farmers and their
families in the northwest corner OF
Pine county, the weather was ideal,
and all showed good enthusiasm.
w. E. Boie of st. Paul, credit man
ager of the Land O'Lakes Creameries,
Inc, of which Denham creamery is a
member, was the principal speaker OF
the day, dwelling on matters OF i'm
portance to cooperative creameries.
Oscar Oswald, secretary of the local
creamery, reports that the output is
about the same now as last year, ap-
proximately 10000 pounds of butter
now being manufactured each week.
Allen Irene continues as the efficient
buttermaker and Victor Miller who
came from Moose Lake, continues as
the helper, having held that position
the past two years.
A barn dance in the community and
another dance at the Bohemian hall,
2 miles south of Denham, kept the
young folks, especially, until late
hour, both being good social events.
The main attraction in the way of
sports during the afternoon was a
holly contested baseball game between
Denham and Willow River, the latter
team being members of the Pine
county league. A feature of the game
which was won by Denham, II to IL,
was the manner in which the ball was
kept in motion. Neither team had
many strike outs, the ball being bat
ted well. Lehet led his Willow River
teammates with three hits out of four
times to bat while Waisonen and
Peterson starred for the locals with
