not a large state in population, though
the third largest In the union in area,
but enough people became excited
about the situation to run an average
of about 500 letters Of protest a day
to the senior Montana senator's office.
And not enough letters Of approval to

SANDSTONE

Last Sunday two wrecks were
caused by the slippery snow on the
pavement. Two men from bling
and two young women from Duluth
were driving north about mile south
of town when the car began to swerve
and finally got out of control. The
car rolled over several times but no
one was injured. The other wreck
occurred near Friesland Sunday after
noon when man and his wife from
western Minnesota were driving along
in a Plymouth car and had an acct
dent identical to the preceding one.
1t was reported that nobody was hurt
in that wreck. The two cars that had
been in the mishap were brought to
town. They were soon fixed up so
that both parties were able to proceed
on their way.
A Sandstonian, John Behrenbl mixer,
has certainly been doing good at the
University Of Minnesota because only
short time ago he became mem
Der of the Phi Delta Kappa and pre-
ceding that he was member of the
Phi Sigma Kappa. Both of these fra
ternities have members that have
high scholastic averages. He was
also selected as member of the
Inter-fraterGity Athletic council whic h
has kept him busy during the last few
months.
Miss Leila BarstOw, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. r. w. BarstOw of Sandstone,
has recently been elected sophomore
representative to the Wallace Hall
council. Miss Barstow has enrolled
for her second year at Manchester
college.
Mrs. H. d. Stokes, wife of local
dentist, received telegram Saturday
stating that her brother, Mark E.
Lambert, dropped dead Friday after
noon while he was hunting with his
friends. Mr.. Lambert made his home
in Mcleod, Calf. The Stokes family
drove to st. Paul Saturday afternoon
and Mrs. Stokes, accompanied by her
sister, Mrs. Ed Mason, left by train
Sunday morning for California to at
tend the funeral.

High School.

With the first real sign of winter,
good blanket of snow, all sport
minded individuals begin to think of
basketball. The boys in the high
school are now looking forward with
eagerness to the beginning of basket
ball practice in the near future. The
essential equipment has been pur-
chased and all is in readiness. This
year the night practices will be dis
placed by weekly workouts from
three to five o'clock in the afternoon.
What the prospects for a winning
team are this year is not easy to say,
but numerous lettermen ale avail
able from last years squad and hopes
are running high.
Halloween party was enjoyed by the
members of the senior high school
and the faculty, Friday evening. The
party was sponsored by the executive
committees of each class with Mr..
Sails acting as advisor. The high
lights of the evening were the ghost
walk" two short skits given by men,
bers of the high school and the var
ious contests and games. The enjoy
able evening was terminated with a
late lunch.
Grades.
Last Thursday the pupils in the
fifth and sixth grades entertained the
third and fourth graders with Hal
lOwe'en program. Both the entertain
ers and the audience had good time.
The spelling contest between the
fifth and sixth graders has come to
an end. 1t will be replaced by a con-
test between chosen teams.
Child Life" a magazine that the
fifth and sixth graders receive, is very
useful and helpful in their school
work.
A calendar for the month of Novem-
Der decorates the board in the first
and second grade room. The pupils
are becoming familiar with the names
of the days of the week and the num-
Der of weeks in the month. Last
Thursday this room had an eerie
look, with jack-o-lanterns furnishing
the only light. Treats were passed
out, games played, and short pro-
gram enacted.
The fine renmanship and spelling
papers posted on the board serve as
an incentive for better papers and
also for better reading.
In language the pupils in the two
lowest grades are studying unit on
pilgrims.

learn at home, at school, on playing
field, in the life of organization, COM
munity, party and nation. the lasting
lesson of obedience to command.
I'VE believe that the spirit of self
sacrifice can be cultivated in peace as
we'll as in war. The greatest glory of
war is the almost incredible spirit of
devotion it engenders. Men offer their
lives and risk their lives and throw
away their lives with magnificent
abandon. HerOism becomes epidemic
over half a world. Yet in warfare
greed and brutality become epidemic
also. And too often it is they that
persist in the peace that follows,
rather than the spirit of sacrifice
and devotion.
I'VE have not inspired youth in
peace as we inspired them in war.
1t is for us to rear new standards of
success. We must pay public honor
where public honor is due. We must
not uphold the mere manipulation Of
a market, or mere scrambler after
profit, or power, or position. Rather
let us honor the heroes of science who
alleviate human suffering and carry
on the standards of civilization. Let
us honor the heroes of public serv-
ice who seek not how much they can
get out of their country, but how
much they can give to it. Let us
honor the heroes who devote their
lead our children on to live and
laugh and learn and love as we have
only dreamed of doing. Let us honor
the men who carry into the Ordi-
nary affairs of life noble idealism
and sincere capacity for self-devO-
ton. Let us translate the devotion
of war into the devotion of peace.
Let us will to live as we'll as die
for our country.
Now we come to the remaining
virtue. intrepidity or courage, and
find that we have been considering
it. For courage is involved in devo-
ton. No line can be drawn between
sacrifice and valor.
Civil Courage.
THE courage of war left all the
world at once proud and humble, at
once shamed and inspired. 1t is for
us to convert this martial courage
into civil courage. We must convince
ourselves that we can be as brave
at home as under fire. We must
recognize that this civic courage is
higher, rarer, more difficult, more
needed We must honor the courage
of every day, the valor of clean, I'M
compromising lives lived in common
honor and devotion.
Adventure need not disappear with
war. There are always quests to
challenge The new romance will be
the turning of the slums of the world
into paradise.
1T is for us then to learn the valor
that endures in peace as we'll as war,
to know that
The present needs our courage and
our might;
Behold. on every hand new foes to
fight
And grim primeval wrongs that war
with Right.
Though gun be spiked and sheathed
the blood-dyed sword,
Forever sounds the bugle of the
Lord"
