Mechanical AK Takes
Away Chopping Chore

At last-the woodchopper's dream
come true-a mechanical AK that
splits wood as easily as falling off
the log itself. Emil Hammermeister,
Eden township farmer, four miles
east of Morgan recently set his
creative powers to work and out OF
an old gasoline engine has contrived
the machine which will split enough
wood in a day to last the season.
Using an old engine from which
the head had been removed, Mr.. HAM
mermeister fastened an ak with a
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1933-01-26

wide wedge to the piston. Leaving
enough space in which to fit piece
of sawed wood behind the cylinder,
he fixed what may be called the chop
ping block against which the wood
is held while the regular piston stroke
of the axe is made against the end
of the piece, lying in a horizontal
position
The contrivance does efficient work
and may be operated either by hand
or power. Now all Mr.. Hammer
meister needs to do is to perfect a
mechanical feeder to place the wood
in the stove and the fuel problem will
be settled.

Sam was forced into his incon-
sistent role by J. Marvin Hunter,
whose The Frontier Times" has
made this community. AZ miles dis
tant from a railroad, known wherev-
er the magazine is circulated.
Hunter, a little more than ten
years ago, left the composing room
of the San Antonio, Texas, Express,
and came here to buy small coun-
try weekly. With him he brought
an idea aid a crapbook-and little
else.
The scrapboOk was filled with
first hand, photographed accounts
of stirring events in Texas history
written by the pioneers who lived
through them. His idea was that
these events, supplemented by ac-
counts of Others he expected to
gather, would make interesting
reading for Texans everywhere and
for others for whom the making of
a great state might hold fascina-
ton.
"The Frontier Times" prospered,
gained thousands of readers
throughout Texas and the nation
and abroad. Books came in their
course to supplement the magazine,
Ill published here.
Along with the multitude Of color
full facts he dug up, Hunter collect
ed items redolent of Texas, includ-
ing fossils, peculiar rock forma-
tions, Indian relics and museum
pieces from the era of pioneers.
The collection finally overran the
small print shop.
Hunter determined to build mu-
scum to house his collection. But
museum would have to be financed.
Here Sam Bass, long in his grave
after the battle of Round Rock in
which he was killed, came to the
rescue.
Hunter had written a book, "Au-
thentic History of Sam Bass and
His Gang" Hunter decided to
market enough copies to pay for
the museum buildings.
Among the museum pieces are
hundreds of relics including rifles.
pistols, muskets, spinning wheels,
saddles, cooking utensils and farm
tools, lariats, spurs. powder horns,
bullet molds. and photographs of
early Texans including rangers and
desperadoes.

the tragedy at Fort Minis unique is the fact
that the Indian leader In this massacre had

son of Charles Weatherford, a Scotch trader,
who had married a half-sister of Alexander
McGilivray, the principal chief of the Creeks
who had been a British colonel during the Rev.
olution and later became a brigadier general
in the United States army. This Alexander Nc
Gillivray was the son of .Lachlan McGillivray,
another Scotch trader who had married Sehoy
Marchand, who in turn was the daughter of a
French captain named Marchand and a Creek
Indian woman. So In the veins OF William Wealth
erford ran Scotch French and Creek Indian
blood and genealogical experts have figured out
that he was seven-eghths white and one-eighth
Indian.
But that oneeighth was enough to give him
the name of "Red Eagle" or "Red Warrior

AS is usual at this time of year,
there have been a number of let
terS from young people eager to
come to New York to begin their
careers. AS the majority have been
from young women, this time I'll let
Mrs. Helen L. Monasmith, chairman
of the room registry committee of
the welfare council, answer them.
Her reply may be summed up in a
few lines: Don't come to New
York if you are unemployed-you
will be better off at home"
1t costs a girl less to live in New
York now than in former years, but
it is harder than ever for her to
find work, Mrs. Monasmith con-
tinued. A girl must earn from $1S
to $50 a week to live in any degree
of comfort. Her room, in a private
home, is from 81 to 50 a week food,
at least 81 week; clothing, on
basis of 500 a year, $3.50; carfare,
telephone, incidentals, $L25. That
leaves from 81 to 81 a week for
doctor, dentist, medicines, savings,
recreation, laundry and emergencies.
Although these figures represent
minimum on which a girl may live
with self-respect, there are many
girls with excellent credentials who
have to accept $12 a week or less
and live accordingly.
Many college graduates, Mrs.
MOnasmith said. have been forced
to accept positions for maintenance
instead of compensation and even
that type of apprenticeship is ex-
tremely difficult to obtain. Some
college graduates have accepted pO-
sitions as governesses only to find
ordinary domestic jobs with treat
ment common TO that type of work.
Then there is the opportunity

exchange for some service in the
household. Social agencies report
that many housewives take advan-
tage of girls asking for work equiva-
lent to a full-time with no compen-
sation. In many instances. stand

cilities in the kitchen sink. House
wives have been known to keep 0
girl long enough to get the house
well cleaned. then tell her she Is
"unsatisfactory"-a racket In which
the girl has no redress.
In conclusion, Mrs. MOnasmlth
said: "Unless you have friends or
relatives here, an assured job, or
money enough to last year, don't
come to New York CITY," And as
she spoke she had in mind, regis

In order TO meet the challenge
for shoulder breadth which the new
silhouette calls for, designers are
employing all sorts of materials
which are crisp and "starchy" in
appearance. The two French fash
ions here shown and which were
worn at the races are typical of
the trend The belted jacket Is a
smart model, Its huted trimming
and double-caped sleeves being out
standing style details. The velvet
crowned white hat Is especially
noteworthy. The other gown Is a
study In organdle, since 1t COM
bines dainty crossbar organdle with
plain. Exaggerated shoulder width
bespeaks ultra chic for this cos
tune. Also the fact that the broad
brimmed linen hat is trimmed in
the same Organdie which fashions
the dress Is significant of the new
mode.

The government should
run it's business well. 1t is a
large business, employing
probably around 100000
persons with about 100000
elected officials and with
more than 100000 different
units.
During the past decade it has re-
|quired approximately one-eighth of
the total income, and a much larg-
er percentage during the depres-
sion.
1t concerns itself with police
and military protection, safeguards
health, cares for the sick, fights
crime, provides money, furnishes
recreation, teaches our children,
aids transportation, forecasts
weather. provides insurance. fur
nishes relief, aids employment, adj
ministers justice, makes roads,
protects our forests-in fact, no
other business touches our lives at
so many points or aids us in so
many ways.
Moreover, these activities have
grown rapidly, in good times and
in bad. There is every reason to
think this growth may continue in
the future.
Efficiency Wanted
Management and technology
have won brilliant victories in pri-
vate industry, particularly during
the past decade. Waste has de-
creased. The problem of produc-
ton is almost solved. The govern
ment should be quick to import the
most modern devices of efficiency
in organization and technique.
Indeed its recent record against
graft, corruption, and inefficiency
has been encouraging. But enorm-
GUS gains are still possible.
The problem is to make govern
ment change more easily and rap
idly. instead of clinging to the
forms and precedents of the earlier
rulers of a by-gone agricultural
era. No farmer today would be
content to use Thomas Jefferson's
plough, but we do not seem to want
