NO FUNDS, DROUTH
RELIEF SUSPENDED
County Office at Vesta Esti-
mates Redwood Supply
Will Finish Week

Distribution of drouth relief feed
and hay throughout the entire state
was suspended this week upon orders
from A. T. Forsberg, drouth relief
administrator, because of lack Of
funds.
This order will not affect hay and
grain already on hand at distribution
points or on ears enrOute put 1t
means that unless more funds are
appropriated all supplies will be ex-
hausted in few days and $4,000
farmers who have been receiving re-
lief will have to get help elsewhere
or sell their stock to prevent starva-
ton. Mr.. Forsberg estimates that a
million dollars are needed in Mime
sofa to continue the relief until pas
lures are far enough along to support
the stock.
In the drouth section of Redwood
county, according to w. S. South
mayd, office manager at Vesta, a dis
tribution of 1000 bushels of corn and
1900 bushels of oats was made be-
tween March Is and April 5. Some
farmers are already in need of more
and all will be out Of feed by the end
of this week. Redwood county re-
quires about 1900 bushels of oats or
1000 bushels Of corn per month.
There is no drouth relief feed or hay
on hand in the county now. Some
hay, ordered before the closing order,
may come through.
IF more funds are available at a
later date distribution Of feed will be
resumed. It will not be necessary for
farmers to make new requests. They
will be notified as before if feed is
allotted to them.
A. T. Forsberg sends this request
to all drouth relief officers, "Ask
farm organizations to ask senator's
sud congressman to appropriate more
funds for drouth relief at once" Post

PARENTS,
COACH PRAISED AT
ATHLETIC BANQUET
Joe Hutton, Hamline Coach,
Lauds Athletics as Aid to
Boy in Later Life

The boys who play the game, the
parents who rear them and encourage
them and the coaches who train them
shared high praise at the student act
ivity banquet sponsored by civic or
CARNATIONS at the Catholic church
dining room Tuesday evening.
In return the community was COM
plimented for it's support of it's
teams, its sportsmanship and for ar
ranging the banquet which is believed
to be the first all-city affair of its
kind ever given here.
The basketball team and coach
were highly praised by Coach Joe
Hutton of Hamline university, who
spoke of their appearance on the floor
at the state tournament, their spirit,
craftsmanship and the general i'm
preston they made with the specta-
tors, both on and off the floor.
Mr.. Hutton stressed the value of
athletics in education, the spirit and
ability to "take it" and the attitude
toward competition and the sports
manship which are developed in
school games, particularly in basket
ball and football.
He predicted that several members
of the high school team have futures
in college athletics and asked them
to consider attending some small col
lege, pointing out that where only a
few with exceptional ability can part
icipate in athletics at big universities,
the smaller schools offer opportuni-
ties for many more good players to
enjoy the thrill of competition.
DR.. j. W. Inglis, father of James
and Steve of the honor guests, told
the fathers side Of the story and Mrs.
D. Smith, mother of Erwin "Buz,"
praised athletics from the mothers
viewpoint.
Coach j. L. Brown declared that to
him the fun of playing is the greatest
asset of athletics and that having
good teams and winning is important
because of the additional pleasure so
obtained. Of particular interest was
his statement that Redwood Falls can
look forward to having a good foot
ball team next fall and good basket
ball team next winter. Although
most of the basketball team is grad
uating, he said, there is wealth Of
good material coming up from the
second squad and the Junior high.
Ted Ahrens brought greetings from
the alumni association, of which he is
president, and Parker D. Sanders pre-
scented the charms which the COM
munity is giving the basketball team,
giving. each players position and
some highlights of his career. Erwin
Smith accepted on behalf of the team
and thanked the city for it's loyalty.
POSTMASTER Frank Clague ittingly
concluded the evening by reminding

RYERSON'S SHARE
OF FEES SET AT
$1,000 BY COURT

N. R. Ryerson's share of the $500
attorneys fees allowed for probati1g
the Susan Salisbury estate is increas-
ed from $40O to $1,000 in a decision
given by Judge Lars Rue of Minnea-
polls last week. Mr.. Ryerson's suit
against George A. Barnes of Redwood
Falls and Henry H. Flor Of New Ulm
over the division of the fees was
heard here March 10.
The decision says in part: Gin view
Of all the facts and circumstances,
the amount involved and the liberal
fee allowed by the probate court with
the consent of the residuary legatees,
it would seem that an allowance of
$1,000 to Mr.. Ryerson is reasonable,
fair and just" 1t also says that he
faithfully and conscientiously en-
deavored to render such aid as he
could"
The local firm of Clague and
Barnes were administrators of the
estate and secured Mr.. Ryerson to act
as attorney of record" in the matter.
Later when legal difficulties arose,
they secured the help of Mr.. Flor.
After the case was completed, the
difficulty over fees started. Mr.. Ry-
erson commended that he and Mr.. Flor
should share the fee equally as at
torneys of record and that each
should pay Clague and Barnes third,
which amounted to dividing the fee in
three parts. He petitioned the dis
trict court for a summary determine
ton of the proper division of fees at
ter he was paid $400 which Mr..
Barnes and Mr.. Flor contended was
ample for his work in the matter.
According to the decision, Mr..
Clague received $500 for his work and
made no further claim. The remain
ing $4,000 goes to Mr.. Barnes and the
New Ulm firm Of which Mr.. Flor was
la member at that time. $

Michael Z was lying on the gravel
road near his Ford when found.
Mr.. Michael, slightly hard of hear
ing, testified that he stopped COM
pletely twice before going on the
paving-once at the railroad tracks
and once near the paving. He told Of
other injuries received.
Victor Zimmerman, driver of the
truck, said he left Morgan at A that
morning and did not .ravel over 80
miles per hour on tae trip. lie said
Mr.. I1ichaei did not sop before
entering the paving and that he mad
a clear vision of the Ford car Tor a
considerable distance. Asked why he
did not stop his truck. MI. thinner

weigh one desire against another
and sacrifice the lesser for the
greater.
Dear Jane Jordan-I have been
reading your column for some time
and have been delighted by your
courageous manner of answering.
Please allow me to congratulate you
on your straightforward way of
telling the plain. unvarnished truth.
I have been intending to horn in
and say a few words about "Sorry'S"
problem but have kept still until I
read the letter which was "Un-
signed"
I literally was burned up by the
sentence where this person said
that in her church groups when
Jane Jordan is mentioned, it is
with shame" and that you had
done much damage to right think
ing among the young people"
I sincerely hope that God will
have pity on the poor narrow
minded creatures who discuss in
hushed voices, behind cloaks OF
false modesty, the things which
more truthful, modern young peo-
pie do. Some may think today's
young people terribly immoral. They
are not; neither are they hypo-
critics.
FATHER OF TWO.
Answer-It is a pleasure to be
attacked when it results in such
pleasant letters of defense. How
ever, brickbats are as welcome as
bouquets.

paid me rather flattering attentions.
He is %, never married. 1 some
how became infatuated with him.
He knows I am engaged but asked
me for date. "A" insisted that 1
should have to choose between him
and having a date with B." I chose
"A" of course, as I love him as
much as ever.
Although "A" says he still loves
me, the confidence he had in my
loyalty is gone forever. He says
that after we're married the same
thing will happen again and again.
1 can't understand myself. Do you
think if I had been married two or
three years ago that I would be as
easily interested in another fellow?
Do you think there is any chance Of
my gaining back LAS" confidence
in me? PUZZLED FIANCEE.
Answer-The fact that you are
in love with one man is no guar
antee that another will not at
tract YOU, nor will marriage blind
YOU to the charms of other men.
No one can completely lose him
self in another and become utterly
Indifferent to the rest of the hui
man race.
Your young man lacks conf
dence in himself, though he in
terprets it as a lack of confidence
in YOU. If he was thoroughly sold
on his own ability to win and hold
the love of a woman, he wouldn't
be so alarmed by competition. AS
it is. he is afraid he can not stand
comparison and only feels secure
when his beloved has no other
contacts.
He seeks to boost his Debated
ego by tearing down yours. If
only he can regard you as untrust-
worthy and make you believe that
you are a very small person in
deed. he will feel that of the two
he is the better character.
In handling him you should be
careful not to tear down his be-
lief in himself or blame him for
feeling some apprehension. If you
really love the man you should let
him feel so certain OF his place in
your affections that even friendly
association with other men will
not disturb him.
Perhaps the real Scource of the
difficulty is that you are by no
means convinced that you have
found the one man whom you
want and have begun TO hunger
for variety. If this is true I do
not know what you can do except
be honest. It is hardly fair to
hook up with a poSseSSive man if
you feel a great resistance against
being possessed. You'll have to
