Redwood, Beluiev and Delhi
Girls Win State Fair TRIPS
Redwood and Blue Earth COun-
ties Win Three Contests
Each, Unusual Honor

Irene Neuschwander, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Neuschwander and
Florence Farlee, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. c. J. Farlee, Redwood All bread
team; Margaret Gunelson, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. j. S. Gunelson of
Belview, All room furnishing demon
strator and Vergie Trent, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Floyd Trent, Delhi
All club demonstration, won at the
Marshall district contests recently
and will receive free trips to the Min
nesota State Fair where they will
compete with other district winners.
This is the first time in seven
years that Redwood county has been
fortunate in obtaining state trips in
speaking demonstrations in home
economics through district competi-
ton although several have been
chosen as alternates. 1t is unusual
for one county to win three state fair
trips, only Redwood and Blue Earth
having the distinction. The girls par
ents, Miss Margaret Burmeister, Mrs.
G. d. Clipfell and Miss Lenore Gold
en-, who helped train one or more of
the girls, are particularly honored by
their success.
Twenty-three counties took part in
the southern Minnesota sub-district
contest, from which four bread teams,
four clothing teams, four canning
teams, three individual cake demon
strators and two individual room fur
nishing demonstrators were chosen
for state competition.
Miss Neuschwander and Miss Far
lee have been in club work two years,
Miss Gunelson, eight years and Miss
Trent, five years. Their trips were
won in their major projects this year.
Margaret Gunelson has been Junior
leader Of the Belview All club for
several years. Miss Neuschwander
and Miss Farlee are junior leaders
of the Redwood Mixers club. Vergie
Trent, although she has been in club
work for five years, does not as yet
qualify for leadership because of her
age. Alters taking leadership work
must be 16.

CAMPAIGN NOW
IS HEADED FOR
FINAL STRETCH
Another Cash Award of $25 is
Added in GaZette'S Sub
scriptiOn Contest

With the first or preparatory period
of the Gazette's big automobile
and cash prize campaign now a mat
ter of history the active candidates in
the race are preparing for the
big drive down the stretch and from
present indications it will be one of
the most exciting and interesting
campaigns ever conducted in this Sec
ton of the state.
To show our appreciation and to
aid new candidates who may wish to
join our campaign, we are adding an
other cash award of $25. This is a
special prize and in no way will de-
tract from the other grand prizes. The
special $25 cash prize will be awarded
to the candidate securing the most
points from new, renewal and delln-
quent subscriptions payments. See
the campaign advertisement Tor par
ticulars.
AS the days roll by the rivalry for
the Wonderful prizes offered in the
Gazette's $4,000 grand prize distrlbu-
ton becomes more and more keen, al
though it is of the friendly variety.
Those who have done little in the ear
ly days of the campaign are now get
ting results and these busy workers
will be dollars ahead when the CAM
paign comes to close.
Probably never in the history OF
newspaper campaigns in this section
have the contenders been more evenly
matched and it is pertinent to remark
that it is still "anybody's race" There
is not a candidate who has lead that
cannot be overcome, nor is there a
candidate whose position is such that
they cannot place themselves up am
ong the leaders by little determined
effort.
Factor in Final Count
Good work now during the second
largest vote offer will be big factor
in determining the winners when the
final count comes and those who are
prompt to realize this fact and make
good use of the time during which the
offer is in effect will be much better
off when the period ends August Y
And when candidates are hot on the
trail of every possible subscription
and the regular votes it will earn they
are not overlooking the extra vote Of
fer. For convenience sake SIS worth
of subscriptions is termed club.
Every SIS worth of subscriptions will

Redwood Lad
Shakes Hand
of President
Many From Here in Crowd
Which Saw Roosevelt Tues
day at Willmar

August Z will go down in history
for George, ten-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Bert Lamphere of Redwood
Falls, as a day fully as important as
his birthday. 1t will always be "the
day l shook hands with President
Roosevelt"
Accompanying his parents to Will
mar Tuesday evening, the boy was
well back in the crowd which damned
the railroad yard when an official
of the welcoming committee came
through the crowd, headed for the
presidents car. George fell in behind
and reached the platform just as the
president stepped out Of his car.
A few persons in the front row
were privileged to shake the presi-
dents hand. George held up his right
hand and the president clasped it
firmly and shook it. A second later
Mrs. Roosevelt, first lady of the land,
reached over and patted the boy on
the head for an extra thrill. Mrs.
Lamphere recalls that she shook
hands with Theodore Roosevelt in
Omaha when he was president sever
al years ago.
Although this was the only report
of a Redwood Falls person shaking
the presidents hand, one group re-
ported a novel way Of getting into the
front row at the platform. They
follosr<as along the train headed to-
wardAthe, rear platform, telling spe-
ciaI policemen who were keeping the
crowds back that they were going to
board the special. The ruse worked
and as one of the four said, 1--WE
could have touched the buttons on his
coat"
Many others from here were in
the large crowd at the station. A few
others arrived as the special train
was leaving. 1t was 20 minutes or
more ahead of the scheduled time of
arrival.

48 MILES OF ROAD
WILL BE CRAVELED
Gas Tax to Pay for Improve
ment in Several Townships;
Cantine Gets Job

Work will be started within a week
on the crawling Of 48 miles of Red
wood county roads, following the let
ting of contract to the Peter Can
tine Road Construction company OF
Wabasso by the county commission
ers this week. There were four bid
ders.
Spread over the entire county, the
work will cost $7,S45.6O paid from the
gas tax. The work includes 80 miles
of county aid road and nine miles OF
state aid road.
The following townships will re-
ceive part of the work: Swedes For
est, Delhi, Sheridan, Westline, Granite
Rock, Vail, New Avon, Three Lakes,
Shutdown, Johnsonville, Waterbury,
North Hero, Lamberton and Charles
town. In some cases the roads are
on township lines.
Robert Goudy, farmer northeast OF
Wabasso, appeared before the board
and wanted the county to pay him for
the loss of nine sheep which ne be-
lieves died as result Of eating weeds
which were sprayed with sodium chic
rate along the road by his farm.
The board explained that the road
belonged to the county and that II
sheep went out in the roadways and
ate weeds, he would have to suffer
the damage. It is believed to have
been the first accident of this type
here.
Ordinarily the board takes a vaca-
ton during August but additional
business this year prompted the
meeting.

BROWN REPLIES TO
CHARGES THAT LED
TO FL DISBARMENT
Calls Controversy ''Kid's Play
in Attack on Leaders of
Party in County
OPPOSES PARTY PLATFORM
Group Takes No Action, Feels
Speaker Did Not Ask to
be ReinStated

Calling the controversy "kid's play
and faying county Farmer-Laboa
leaders with bitter phrases, Leon H
Brown, candidate for state senator
answered charges of the second ware
Farmer-Labor organization at it:
meeting Tuesday night.
The group recently "disbarred" Mr.
Brown from membership on motion
of Jake Discher, seconded by Walter
Lamberton. Mr.. Brown received q
registered letter next day advising
him of the action and offering him ar
opportunity to defend himself at the
August meeting of the group. The
letter was published in the July 26 is
sue of the Gazette.
No motion was made to reinstate
Mr.. Brown after the attack and men,
bers of the party said Wednesday
that they did not feel that he asked
to be made member again in his
talk. He left the meeting shortly
after having CHS say" The CONVEX
sation then drifted to a discussion of
Redwood Falls newspapers, led by
county leaders who do not reside in
the second ward.
Mr.. Browns talk, verbatim, fol-
lows:

ing on August 7th at the regular
meeting place you will have an OPP
portunity to defend yourself, and ask
to be reinstated in the organization"

letter in it's entirety.

You can see for yourself how child

much so that it borders On the ridicu-

not believe that it even merited a

be led to engage in with this organ
ization because of such "kid's play"
would be futile from my angle as well
as yours. But knowing the fragrant
lack of fair play, shortage of political
honesty, and also knowing the abhor-
rent selfish motives possessed and
practiced by the leaders of the Farm
er-Labor organization in Redwood
county and knowing their childish de-
light in speaking half truths, spread
ing false and malicious rumors again
