ton in war against nation with
whom the United States are at
peace. If they do, they shall be
guilty of high misdemeanor and
shall be fined not more than $4,000
and imprisoned not more than
three years."
Ethiopia To Seek Special
Permission
While Americans of Italian ex-
traction are not generally anxious
to volunteer to serve under Mus
solini's colors in his war on
Abyssinia, thousands of Negroes
with little or nothing in common
with the Ethiopians except color,
are anxious to serve the African
nation. The reason for Italo-
American apathy is due to the fact
that a large number of the Italian
American leaders while nominally
supporters of Mussolini do not
favor Italy's rape of the little
African nation.
Fifty Twin Citians Want To Go
Unverified rumors state fifty
Twin City Negroes are ready to
volunteer for service in Africa,
while two Minneapolis whites, both
aviators, have contacted the Eth
opian minister in Washington Of
fering their services.

jackson Citizen
Owns Ancient Map

One Of the priced possessions OF
Gus Swanson, jackson resident, is
map of Minnesota published in
1854. It ranks probably as one of
the oldest maps of the state now
in existence and no doubt would
be a valuable addition to the rec
ords of the state historical society.
Mr.. Swanson came into possession
of the map many years ago while
cleaning out rubbish from a Jack
son home.
The map, well preserved despite
its age, shows that Minnesota then
composed only 20 counties, but one
of Observation-Disclosures ter
ritory equal to one-third the pres
ent size of the state. Only doz-
en- or more counties now have the
names they then were known by,
more of them in the eastern part,
but the boundary lines of many OF
them would not be recognized
now. Most Of the lakes and rivers
of the state had Indian names and
many of the lakes listed have long
since disappeared.

5. In using fluids for cleaning,
use only non-infiammable cleaners.
Remember that pint of infam-
mable fluid has as much explosive
power as ten pounds of dynamite.
6. Do not build a fire in an open
fire place and go away and leave
z. Keep matches away from chill
it. Use a substantial spark screen.
Zen. Before throwing away a
burned match, break it and be sure
sure that it is out. Remember a
match may have a head but no
brains.
8. When going into closets or
dark corners, use an electric flash
light.
9. Do not thaw frozen water
pipes by applying a torch or open
flame. Rap loosely with cotton
cloth and pour hot water over it,
or send for a plumber.
10. Do not depend upon your
landlord to protect you from fire.
Inspect your home yourself and
make all unsafe things safe.
IL. Do not set stove against
walls or partitions. Set it at least
six inches from wall. Protect the
wall with sheet iron or asbestos
board. Never connect gas stove
with rubber hose. Use iron pipes.
IL. Do not string electrical wires
over nails, iron pipes or over met
al, or run them through lath and
plaster partitions without proper
insulation.
13.Do not start fall fires in fur
mace or stove without having had
the furnace and stove cleaned,
chimney and smoke pipes examin-
ed thoroughly and know that the
.ntire furnace and pipes are free
from defects.
ID. Remember the fire depart
ment is your best friend. If in
doubt of any dangerous situation
in your home, consult your local
fire department for advice. Rem
ember that the fire department
knows that it is far easier to pre-
vent fires than to fight fires after
they start.

PRIVATE CITIZEN
CAN CUT LOSSES
Fire Fighting Begins Al
Home And Before Fire
Is Started

You as a private citizen can
meet the hazards against fire in
your home or business by observ-
ing some of the following "Dont's".
1. Don't put penny in the fuse
box, put it in the bank. Get the
proper size fuses. Before attach
ing the electric iron, vacuum clean
er, cooking utensils, or any other
electrical devices to your light cir
cult consult an electrician as to the
ability of your wiring to withstand
this additional load.
2. Be careful with ashes within
the basement or outside of the
house. Do not allow rubbish and
paper to accumulate.
3. Beware of oily rags and cloth
es. They might ignite spontan-
eously.
4. Shut your engine off when fill
ing car with gasoline. Do not fill
gasoline stove in a closed room.
Do not permit an open flame or
light in a room where gasoline is
stored. Always provide plenty of
ventilation where combustibles are
kept

6 MAIN CAUSES
OF FARM FIRES

The majority Of farm fires are
due to six causes, all largely pre-
ventable. Fire prevention week
should be the occasion to empha-
size these causes and secure action
to eliminate or reduce them as far
as possible.
In approximate order of impor-
tance, they are:
l. Lighting. Provide all build
ings with proper lighting protec-
lection equipment. Livestock can
be protected by grounding at rea-
sonable intervals all wire fences
enclosing pastures or yarGs.
2. Chimneys and defective heat
ing apparatus. Rebuild all defec-
tive chimneys and see that all
heating apparatus is properly in
stalled. Keep chimneys, f1ues
stoves clean. Set stoves on sub
stantial bases, we'll away from
floors, woodwork and walls. Smoke
pipes should be short and well
away from combustible materials.
Put ashes in metal cans.
3. Matches and smoking. Keep
farm premises clean and tidy, ano
build of incombustible materials as
far as possible. Allow no smoking
in barns. Tidy conditions greatly
reduce the chance that a discarded
cigaret or match may start a fire.
4. Spontaneous ignition. Thor,
oughly cure hay, pea vines and
other roughage before stacking in
barns. Do not allow horse manure
to accumulate in large piles in
stables or against farm buildings
5. Gasoline and kerosene. Pro
vide proper facilities for storage
and handling of gasoline and kero-
sene. Do not use gasoline to1
home dry cleaning, or kerosene fo1
starting fires. ;,
6. Electricity. Make sure all
wiring and electric devices are
properly installed. Watch for worn
insulation.

Insurance Companies
Increase Farm Loans

Improving conditions and the
inherent soundness of agriculture
in all parts of the country are be-
ing reflected by the increased how
of mortgage money into :sarm
loans. While this situation is man.
ifesting itself in the reports of all
lending agencies, it is particularly
apparent in the business of some
of the large life insurance COM
panies.
In the northwestern section, in
cluding Minnesota, agriculture is
following this national trend.
Lending agencies are giving favor
able consideration to mortgage ap-
plications of farmers engaged in
the production of the small grain
crops, corn and livestock; dairy
products; stock breeders and feed
ers and those engaged in general
farming in the northwest terri
tory, according to G. H. Cooper,
manager of the Minnesota farm
loan branch of the Prudential In
surance company Of America.
Not only is the Prudential turn
ing greater flow of money into
the territory, according to state
ment made by Mr.. Cooper, but it
is offering the lowest interest
rates and the most liberal terms
in it's history. This, as Mr.. Coop
er pointed out, indicates that this
business is of such strength and
merit that it may be written at
unusually low interest rates.

Dope Fiend jailed;
Attempts Suicide

Lester Names. a dope fiend be-
ing held in the Mobiles county jail
On federal charge, attempted to
commit suicide one day last week
by slashing his wrist with a safety
razor blade. The cut, however,
was not a severe one. Other pris-
oners saw him and called for help.
It is thought, since the cut was
slight, that he had been crazed by
lack of an opiate and attempted to
gain sympathy-and perhaps some
dope-by his act.
He was arrested in Worthington
after he had stolen a prescription
blank from a physicians office and
forged a prescription for NOR
phine. The prescription was filled
but the clerk at the drug store
found out almost Immediately that
it was a forgery and notified Of
ficers. Mianes was arrested and
bound over to the January term of

tract. because if you can make ive,
you usually have very fine play for

distinctly against your playing hand

BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

THE close relationship of mother
and daughter, which should be
such happy and sympathetic one, is
often blighted by the childs obvious
antagoniSm. and open rebellion
against everything for which the
mother stands, which is the result,
principally, of that old demon, green
eyes"
It is hard to admit that child
might be jealous of mother, but this
situation is not uncommon when the
mother is beautiful and the child less
so or not at all The indications are
often subtle ones. The child evidences
it most by her incorrigibility, her re-
fuSal to be dictated to by the mother,
her furious resentment against even
the mildest, most reasonable maternal
suggestions.
In such unhappy situations, there is,
as a rule, fanatical devotion to the
father. He is torn between his love
for his wife and his fiattered glow at
being the favorite of his child.
The solution of such tangled fam
ily situation lies with the mother. She
cannot change her looks. her appeal
to others or her social success. She
can make an effort. though, out of her
mature knowledge of the basis of the
childs conduct, to build up in the
child a more stable and satisfying
sense of her own Importance as an
individual
What the child is suffering is
feeling of inferiority, which is aggra-
waited by natural age differences, as
we'll as the mothers noticeable su-
periority of appearance.
1t is the mother who must make ap-
parent to the child the various forms
which beauty may take. She need not
be crude in her endeavor to convince
the child of her own superior assets,
but she should emphasize the value
of charm, of sweetness, of a sincere,
not an artificial, interest in others.
These are. as valuable assets as beauty
of form or feature.
Children are inclined to consider
themselves ugly. They hear few COM
plants from parents or adults, who
adopt this policy for fear of inspiring
vanity. But when a child indicates
by her conduct that she is suffering
from jealousy of a beautifully, poised
and socially successful mother, no ef-
fort should be spared to build up in
her happy sense of her own value
as an individual.
