DANZIG, June 4-Germapy's re- armament has had a good effect up- on the Free City's unemployment problem. But Polish officials here are worried.
 The unemployed number sank by 5000 in March. The big factor in this was said to be volunteer enlistment of Germans, who are citizens of the Free City, in Hitler's army and labor service.
 This is what worries the Poles. They fear that Danzig will be- come closer to the reich through the training received by Danzigers in Germany.

Better Babies

wv, E ARE firmly of the opinion that the
NJ daily press, the movies and the mag
w azines lay too much stress on the
unusual in births, the quintuplets, quadrup-
lets, triplets, the oversize babies and the
smallest babies. Why not give the healthy,
normal baby break for change?
Quintuplets are an accident happening
once in millions of cases. Quadruplets are
somewhat less rare and triplets fairly COM
mon The parents and the attending physl-
clan are no doubt entitled to something
more than ordinary mention in such cases,
but when the single offspring is grossly
oversize or undersize, there appears to be
little credit due either.
The better baby contests of few years
back put premium on normal, healthy
young huskies. 1t would be a good thing
to get back to.

Fairer Exhibits

n EDWOOD county fair barns are almost
X invariably filled with livestock but
with the exception of the All barns,
most of the herds come from farms many
miles outside the county. They compete
with each other and carry away the prize
money.
1t is true that with few exceptions,
Redwood county farmers do not go in for
show herds But when fairs were started
there were no show herds. Every farmer
brought whatever he had that he 'fgger-
ed' would beat what his neighbor had to ex-
hibit and the fair had dozens of exhibitors
and hundreds of exhibits.
There was interest then in the livestock
barns. Perhaps the general run of exhibits
didn't come up to the show herds, but they
were hometown stuff and there was rival
Try over it.
The Farmers clubs could contribute
something really worthwhile to the fair by
developing the interest in exhibiting local
products.
All the fools aren't dead yet. But the Monday
morning papers ul1Days carry the names OF severd
and some innocent bystanders victims of aDeek-
end auto accidents.

Who Said "Service?"

IT HE word service is used in the slo.
gans of so many BUSINESS firms that it
has come to mean very little. When a
firm which boasts of it's service fails to send
a repairman on the day promised, or hasn't
your pants or your tire ready two days after
they are promised, or where you wait at the
counter while the clerks chat in the far corn
er-you mentally remove the word service
from that company's attributes.
Business is back to normal in a great
many establishments. Some are enjoying a
prosperity they never knew before. 1t is
good business judgment in such cases to see
that the service of leaner days, when every
dimes worth of business was welcomed with
open arms, be maintained with the advent OF
better trade.
Let's merit the Service" we claim or
quit claiming it.

. EDWOOD Falls is host today to some
X Of the most promising youngsters of
Redwood county, the youths who in a
few years will be operating nearby farms,
exhibiting not calves but herds at the fair,
supporting the churches, the schools and
the units of government which their fathers
and grandfathers established.
It's serious business this All club work
While it is fun of course and involves hap
py associations with other youngsters and
the joy of producing and winning, neverthe-
less the tedious preparation of feelings for
prize pig or painstaking hand stitching of
garments smacks of work at times.
There is joy as well as honor in winning
but there is disappointment oftentimes in
missing by inches coveted prize or trip.
Sometimes we honor the winners to the ex-
clusion of the losers whose efforts and sacri-
fees and the progress they have made with
what they have had to work, frequently are
equally deserving of commendation.
Success of All club Leadership does not
depend wholly upon winning state and dis
trict prizes, although we love to win, but on
interesting more and more youngsters and
holding their interest while they receive
valuable training.
It's almost fairtime. And in spite of the fact
the summer has been terrificaIly hot we aDonder
,1here it has gone so soon.
