And even the criminal develops ideas
on the matter, in those temporary periods OF
repentance brought on by confinement IN

Quite number Of letters come to the At

"Leavenworth Prison.
ct got my lesson this time. You can't win.
When I get out Of here this time I'm going
sraight. Meanwhile I've been thinking up
pan to help you wipe out crime In this country
I know lot about crime. Here is my plan"
The odd thing is that 10 to 1, the plan pro-
auced by the hardened criminal win be the
same one sent in by some gentle old lady who
lives in the Back Bay, Boston.
The old lady wants martial law declared for
a day. a week, a month, longer, with a sus-
pension of all business but criminal catching
until the roundup is complete.
The favorite idea of the voluntary advisers
is for system of police registration and super
vision for the entire population that would
make the efforts of the former Tsars cheka
seem amateurish.
"Of course" wrote one man, ut would take
lot of people to carry out this system. But
if the unemployed were hired for the purpose
both crime and unemployment would be elinni-
mated"
THE most elaborate plan offered Is for a
] sitting Of the entire population into criminal
and non-criminal classes, with non-crimipal

In the last year much advice has been given
the Attorney General on how he should handle
kidnapping.
It is surprising how many different people
had this idea:
"As soon as anybody gets kidnapped you ought
to arrest everybody in their families and take
over all their wealth for the duration Of the
case. Then the family could not pay ransom
and the kidnapers would become discouraged"
Possibly half the letters received from would
be criminologists deal with the handling OF
criminals after they are caught.
1t should be of interest to real criminologists
to know that the letters show almost no In
terest in the possibilities Of reforming prisoners
The writer's are chiefly interested In torture by
methods that would do credit to the law-and-
order enforcers of the Middle Ages.
This may provide an explanation Tor the
prevalence Of third degree and prison camp
horrors in the land.

Hundreds of churches, affiliated
with the American Lutheran
Church, the Augustana Synod, the
Lutheran Free Church, the Fielsen
Synod, the Lutheran Brethren, the
Norwegian Lutheran Church of
America, the United Danish Luth-
eran Church, the Suomi Synod and
the United Lutheran Church of
America will participate. The Luz
theran Welfare Society represents
these synods as their Christian So
cial Service agency.
The society is licensed by the
State Boards of Control of Mime
sofa and Wisconsin as child plac-
ing agency and is authorized to as
sumo legal guardianship of depend
ent and neglected children, to care
for these children in boarding or
foster homes and to place them for
adoption.
In addition to its statewide child
welfare work, the society is active
in many other forms of service, in
Guiding spiritual ministrations to
thousands of patients in Twin CT
ty hospitals, many Of these pa
tients coming from various COM
munities in Minnesota and neigh
boring states.
At present the staff of hospital
missionaries consists of Rev. Geo.
c. Hansler in st. Paul, and Rev. r.
M. Holie and Rev. E. T. Rogne in
Minneapolis.
The amount to be raised in the
Northwest is $25,OOO.OO according to
the executive secretary of the so

subject to FRACTIONAL irritation be-
tween the shoe and the bony prom
inence. Under such conditions, a
little sac sometimes forms under
the thickened skin and becomes in
fected. Then the poor victim has
what is known as an infiamed corn.
when the right kind of shoes,
properly fitted, together with re-
moval Of the horny top skin either
by pairing down or by the various
types of pastes, plasters, collodium
paints or protective pads fails to
cure the corn, then perhaps an OPP
Grafton similar to the one perform
ed upon bunions may be necessary"
the doctors declare. 1.-THE bony
growth can be removed. Then the
corn will heal for good"
1t will heal, the bulletin adds, I'M
less the unwise victim should then
go out and buy more of the same
kind of shoes that started the
trouble in the first place. The
shoes that cause corns are often
too short, the doctors say. Some
times the heels are too high or the
soles too thin. The resulting irri-
tation not only produces painful
feet but wrinkles and bad dispo-
sitions and a trail of petty and,
occasionally, not so petty ills.
For example, the woman whose
feet hurt will not get out and walk
as she should. AS a consequence,
she may put on too much weight.
Then she is in line for the diseases
of middle age-high blood pressure,
heart and circulatory diseases. Take
care of your feet, doctors advice.

Brother and Sister
Buried Tuesday
North Fork Residents for More
Than Half Century Answer
Final Summons

A double funeral was conducted
in North Fork Tuesday afternoon,
when final rites were held for
Erick Anderson Moen and his sis
ter, Mrs. Kari Gulsvig. The former
passed away Monday, April 3, while
Mrs. Gulsvig's death came five days
later, on Saturday, April 8, follow
ing a gradual breakdown due to
advancing years. Mrs. Gulsvig
would have been rs years old on
the 30th day of May. Her brother
was three years her senior.
A brief ceremony was conducted
at the farm home in North Fork,
where Mrs. Gulsvig had spent fifty
years or more of her life, after
which the regular service took
place at Big Grove church, con-
Quoted by Rev. Edward Struxness,
together with brief remarks by Rev.
H. E. Baalson, of Sunburg. A very
large number of neighbors of the
deceased, and many other friends,
estimated at approximately 300 peo-
pie, some of them from Glenwood,
Sunburg, Erdahl, Terrace and Broo-
ten, were in attendance.
Pallbearers of Mrs. Gulsvig were
six of her sons, Marcus, Enuis, Carl,
Alfred, THEODORE and Edwin. Mr..
Mems casketbearers were Erick
Gulsvig, from Nelson, Oscar Her.
GRANDSON, Andrew Gulsvig and Jo-
seph and Elmo Gulsvig.
The remains were laid to rest side
by side in the family lot in Big
Grove cemetery.
Mrs. Kari Gulsvig was born in
Fla, Halingdahl, Norway, May 80,
1857. She came to America in the
spring of 1881, settling in North
Fork township, where she and her
husband began life in a new coun-
try-a pioneer beginning that re-
quired hard work and a determin-
ed character.
She was united in marriage Oct.
%, 1880, to Lars Gulsvig, who pre-
ceded her in death March 5, 1907.
This union was blessed with 13
children, II of whom survive. They
are Erick, of Brooten, Carl of Sun
! burg, George, of Duluth, Theodore,
of Kindred, N. D., Alfred, of Bel
grade, Mrs. Hans Antonson, of
Rutland, N. D., Mrs. Soren Nelson
and Mrs. Oscar Herbrandson, of
Brooten, Lulu, Marcus and Enius on
the home farm, Edwin, of Erdahl
and a step-son, Andrew Gulsvig, of
Twin Valley. She leaves also 26
grandchildren.
Having remained in close COM
munion through their earthly lives,
so have this brother and sister
moved on together to another and
better sphere, where eternal peace
is the reward of worthy and we'll
spent lives.-Brooten Review.

Demonstration By
the County Agent
String Out" or Multiple Hitch In
creases Efficiency of Horses
and Machinery

During the next month or six
weeks demonstrations will be avail
able in the use of the string out"
or multiple hitch to be used on
plows, quack diggers and other
heavy farm machinery. These dem
onstrations will be put on by the
county agent and parties and COM
munities wanting such a demon
stration should communicate with
that office in st. Cloud.
On many farms horses are driv-
en- four or five abreast on gang
plows and similar machinery. These
types of bitches are hard on horses
and do not enable the machinery to
work as good as possible. On many
farms too tractor equipment such
as field cultivators, tandem discs
and three bottom plows are avail
able and still in good working ord
er while the tractor is worn out
and present funds on farms will
not warrant the purchase of a new
tractor. On most of these places
enough horses are kept to handle
this tractor machinery if a suitable
hitch can be worked out. Many
farmers too still have good trac-
tors but can not raise the cash to
buy gas.
When these demonstrations are
put on most of the time will be
spent on five and six horse bitches
but where requests come for a
eight horse hitch or more these will
also be shown. In using the multi
pie hitch the "buck-back" and cite
in" method of driving is used. In
this way only one set of lines are
needed to drive any number of
horses.
When a demonstration is sched-
uled the first part of the demon
STATIONS will be devoted to the
making of few wood bitches and
the making of buckback ropes and
''tie-ins" After these are made
everyone coming to the demonstra-
ton will know how to make and
measure these pieces and will be
able to use them on his own farm.
Demonstrations can be scheduled
through the county agents office.

Legion Posts Will Aid Wandering
Boys


In line with the statewide plan
for aiding thousands of wandering
boys of from Is to 81, Minneapolis
Legionaires are cooperating with
the high school graduates of their
city in the formation of what is to
he known as "The High School
Graduates Employment Associa-
ton" 0--.~- ...
Arthur A. Sturdevant of Mime
apolis, state chairman of the Lee
gion's public relations committee,
is asking the 1853 Legion posts of
Minnesota to each appoint a Leg
ionaire who as Senior adviser" will
organize local unemployed high
school graduates to whom informa-
ton will be furnished as to how
the Minneapolis lads are helping
themselves.
The Mill City graduates have TAX
en- a floor of the Edison building,
fitted it up as workshop with the
aid of their friends, and are receiv-
ing wonderful cooperation from the
public in the way of odd jobs such
as repairing and remodeling furni-
ture and other household articles.
Thirteen boys specially trained are
educating the recruits.
The general statewide Legion pro-
gram in behalf of wandering boys,
according to Father c. j. Normoyle
of Cannon Falls, state American
ism chairman, contemplates first of
all the rendering of sympathy and
understanding because very few of
these lads are bad-just restless be-
cause they could find nothing to
do at home.

Take Care of Your Feet
Medical Association Urges
Corn May Need Same Operative
Procedure As BuniOns, Doctors
Bulletin Declares

st. Paul, April 10-What is corn
Outside of being one of the most
painful of common human all
ments.
A real, full-fedged, class A corn
is likely to be more than just a
patch Of horny skin on your toe,
say doctors of the Minnesota State
Medical Association today. Many
such corns persist stubbornly after
the horny skin has been removed.
They even persist after the victim
has bought and has vainly worn the
kind of low heeled common sense
shoes prescribed for his trouble.
In that case, says the doctors
bulletin, the corn has become a
small bunion, differing only from
a bunion by the position on the
foot. Like a bunion, the real cause
of the trouble may be a tiny growth
of cartilage or bony substance on
the toe. This growth was original
ly caused, without doubt, by bad
shoes. But so long as it remains
on the toe, the skin is constantly

State Legislature Sets
Up Tax Payment Plan
Law Extends Delinquencies-Time
Lifts Penalties and Can Be
Paid Quarterly

Real estate taxes for 1881, pay
able in 1882, and delinquent on
January 1, 1888, will not subject
property owners to tax judgment
sales for non-payment, next May,
in accordance with an act recently
passed by the state legislature.
Time extensions have been made,
the postponed tax sales for a period
of two years, eliminate most pen
alties, and provide for the payment
of delinquent taxes in installments.
In order that the taxpayer may
readily understand the important
features of this law, we give the
following summary:
. There will be no delinquent
tax sale on the second Monday in
May, 1888. This sale has been
postponed until the second Monday
in May, 1885.
2.-If you have not paid your
1881 real estate tax, you may pay
the same in full during 1888 with
out penalty, interest or costs; or
3-You may pay in installments
of not less than one-fourth of the
original amount of the tax, and, if
you pay 500 or more Of the origi-
nal amount of the tax, before
January 1, 1894, the penalty is
eliminated, and you have until JAN
,uary 1, 1885, to pay the balance,
without penalty, which balance you
may also pay in installments of not
less than one-fourth of the original
amount of the tax. In case that
more than 500 of the tax remains
unpaid on January 1, 1884, then the
amount remaining unpaid is subject
to a penalty of 1870 and interest at
1920 per annum from the last
named date, January 1, 1884. In
case that 500 or more is paid be-
fore January 1, 1884, and the bal
ance is not paid before January 1,
1885, then a 1870 penalty is added
to the balance, and interest at the
rate of 1920 per annum attaches
until paid.
lin the event that you have
paid penalty on your 1881 taxes,
Will NC lC1 upO1l dPPll-
cation to the county auditor, at
tended by due proof of payment,
but the warrant so issued by the
county auditor is valid only in pay
ment of 1881 or 1882 taxes, paid in
1888, on any parcel of land in the
same county.
There are contingencies which
will arise, evidently not forseen by
the legislature, on which the law
is silent, leaving the county treas
urer and auditor, to reach a con-
clusion as best they can, but these
instances will be rare, and will per-
haps not cause great trouble. Nat
urally, the law disrupts the system
of tax accounting to no small ex-
tent, but this is accepted in the
proper light by those upon whom
the burden falls. The legislation
at least provides a regular and Or
derby manner of taking care of the
question of 1881 penalties, and elm
mates questionable proceedings"
