Some Swimmers
Should Not Go
Near the Water

There are people who may
hang most of their clothes on a
hickory limb but, like the girl in
the song, must not go near the
water.
The state medical association
puts people who suffer from sim
us trouble or ear infections first
on this list.
Even healthy nasal passages are
likely to be irritated when water
from the lake or swimming pool
is forced into them violently as it
often is in diving or under water
swimming. When the sinuses OF
passages leading to the ears are
already inflamed or diseased, SER
ious damage occurs. Many grave
middle ear and mastoid infections
are traced each year to unwise
swimming and particularly to
swimming under water.
People with head colds are par
ticularly warned to stay out of
the water until the trouble clears
up.
Swimming is a healthful sport
according to the physicians, if it is
indulged in intelligently and with
sensible recognition of the risks
involved.
Even expert swimmers should
mot make long distance swims
alone and without knowledge of
anyone who could come to their
assistance in case of accident.
Neither should they dive into un-
known waters where unsuspected
rocks or timbers might be in their
way. In case of illness Of any
kind all swimmers should be GER
tain, first, that the trouble will not

Railroads

IN IGHT NOW Minnesota, Iowa and Dako-
iN ia communities which are served by
the Minneapolis and st. Louis railroad
and officials of the road are making big
effort to save the railroad from dismember-
ment under the RFC plan. Wonder how
many of them stop to think why the big per-
centage of our railroads are or have been in
a bad way financially?
The first blame lies with the railroads.
This point was well brought out in the latest
March of Time movie feature. The smelly
old coaches with the stove at one end, the
warm water tank and drinking cup Uater
banned by state laws) at the other. The
flexible schedules which amounted to arrive
forenoon, leave afternoon. The dust and
cinders and the independence of train en-
ployees have been traditional. Only thing
Time missed was the depot agent who took
his own sweet time about selling you a
ticket.
Many railroads are doing something
about all this now, the movie brought out.
Schedules mean something. Time becomes
an object and fiiers are fliers. Every con-
venience is provided and at rates far below
the days when railroads had monopoly on
the travelling public. But all this is A. B.
which in railroad history means after buses,
trucks, cars and airplanes. Business lost is
harder to regain than business held is hard
to continue to hold. Explain that to a
100000 year railroad president.
While the buses took the passenger
business, trucks were grabbing the freight
hauling. Rates were factor but speed and
service counted most. Farmers, tired of TAX
ing big shrinkage losses on nineteenth cen
tury livestock hauling schedules, found re-
lief and greater convenience in trucks. This
was just one lucrative field lost, others went
for similar reasons.
When lower rates cut into their busi-
ness, railroads asked not lower rates so they
might compete but higher ones, vainly be-
lieving their volume would not continue to
shrink. When other facilities offered faster
more frequent service, railroads sought not
to put on more trains but to eliminate trains.
Reactionaries in railroad management could
MT have done their competition a greater
service.
Some blame for the plight of the roads
falls to the public. M and St. L. towns are
fighting now to keep service they seldom
used. Men who haven't rode on or shipped
anything by rail for years are signing petit
tions and lecturing on the curse that will
come upon their town when the rails are
torn up. They would be active in fighting
to keep bus and truck service should they
be in danger.
Had the railroads been awake in the
era of truck and bus company growth, they
might have consolidated such competition
units into feeder lines, worked out profit
able transportation system far superior to
what we have at present. This will be the
eventual solution but the delay has made the
task far more difficult.

main Street. gave us chance to look
at ourselves as others see us. Overdrawn
of course, it nevertheless brings out the
faults of the small town as so many stories
have emphasized the blemishes of city life.
One could almost pick his neighbors and
himself among the characters who boosted
civic enterprise, yet had the self-satisfied
distrust of new ideas which so often inter-
feres with progress, not just in small COM
munities but in large ones as well.
The cruelty of small town cliques, the
smugness and the conventions which Grip
pie independent thought and action-these
are the shortcomings Lewis remembered
from his youth in small town. The story
doesn't do justice to Williamsburg. 1t was
mt intended to. 1t merely brought out the
could improve.
Metal numbers suitable for marking
houses cost only few cents each and any
one can put them up in few minutes. For
this small sacrifice, it behooves every resi-
dent of Redwood Falls to see that his dwell
ing is properly marked. With the street
signs back up after long vacation, house
numbers are all that is needed to make it
possible to give intelligent directions with
out resorting to landmarks.
Redwood Falls is losing revenue for the
water department by having to ban lawn
sprinkling practically every summer. More
important, shortage of water endangers
property when fire breaks out as disas-
trous one did last Saturday. A careful sur
vey of the most logical and economical man.
ner of providing adequate water in dry sea-
sons should be undertaken at once.
The big election question right now is
which man are the voters going to get the
sickest of listening to before November,
Farley or Hamilton?

Trade Analysis

A N ANALYSIS of retail sales in the en-
~ tire state, recently completed, indi-
Gates that store sales average $228.24
per person in Minnesota, which would make
a total of something over $580,OO0 in Red
wood Falls, using the 1880 population fig
ure.
BUT-the analysis report says-Red-
wood Falls retail sales indicate purchasing
power of $594.43 per person or total sales of
over million and half dollars per year.
The figures might be construed to mean
that Redwood Falls people have unusual in
comes, an average of $1,000 to $4,000 per
family. This is obviously the wrong con-
clusion. What the figures indicate is that
our fine, modern stores and complete up-to-
the minute stocks attract customers from a
wider area than the analysts took into ac-
count. We don't buy more per person, we
simply induce more people to come here to
buy.
The Redwood Gazette, this year as in
the past, will appreciate and use publicity on
festivals, celebrations and similar affairs in
neighboring towns. With our subscription
list, largest of any paper in wide area, we
can be of real help in community enter

Drive 100 miles in any direction from

Some men are merchants. Others are

Important Meeting

7 OSS OF THE high school building by
fire Saturday increases many fold the
- duties of the board of education for the
next few months and places particular i'm
portance upon the annual school meeting
and election of officers Tuesday evening.
The board faces the necessity of finding
temporary quarters for high school classes
must settle with adjustors for insurance
companies, order preparation of suitable
plans, arrange for financing with bond is
sue or PWA help or both, approve plans, let
contracts and do considerable other detailed
work related to building, besides keeping
school going in the meantime.
Undoubtedly board members will make
some statement and get an expression from
voters at the annual meeting. Every tax
payer should be there. It is equally import
ant that everyone cast a ballot Picking
school board members is always vitality
important job for they spend considerable
money and have in their control the most
vital factor in the lives of our greatest as
sets. This year the selection is doubly i'm
portant.
Incidentally Redwood Falls has one Of
the few school boards on which no member
receives a cent of wages. 1t is a public serv-
ice job pure and simple, one where criticism
more often befalls the member than praise,
where rather tedious painstaking work con-
sumes hours of time bringing little joy ex-
cept that of public service.
\ 70 MATTER now who started the ugly
M epidemic rumor or who assisted in
spreading it. The scare is over and bust
ness goes on as usual. However, note this
to the credit of newspapers of Redwood and
adjoining counties and press services
Not single paper published single line on
the subject prior to last week, not even re-
porting as yellow journalist might have
that "rumors are that there is an epidemic
in Redwood Falls" Newspaper men get the
facts before putting anything in print
Furthermore last week when requested to
publish the truth of the matter, practically
every newspaper in the territory responded
with front page publicity. Redwood Falls
owes its neighbor publishers vote OF
thanks. They are regular fellows.
