Walker scored to put the locals in
the lead decisively. Brendon was
ruled out of the game on fouls
committed. Bellinger, who relieved
him at the guard slot. executed a
pretty bit of headwork when he
waltzed in front of his men to
snatch a Glenwood pass and raced
to the basket. Clother, Kirkwold,
and Edinger scored before the end
of the game, and the locals were
sore pressed to pull out in front
Fouling ran heavily against the To-
Gals and it looked for time as
though Glenwood would be able to
win. Arvig dribbled in to set the To-
Gals out at 81, and the last shot OF
the game was long one from the
center putting the locals at %.
Fouling was extremely heavy es-
pecially during the last quarter.
Eleven misdemeanors were chalked
against the two teams in the fourth
quarter alone. Brendon and Reble
lead in fouling. Both were expelled
from the game with their quota of
four commitments. Inexperience
handicapped the Glenwood boys no
end. They have the height, the
fight, and can make their shots;
but their attack isn't as splinter
ing as the locals proved to be on
Thursday evening. Edinger, veter-

and his hard-to-follow shooting. In

advantage because of his height.

he should have been. His play on

slide, Is what will become Of the
Republican partyi" There are some
prophets Of despair who predict
now that 1t has gone down for the
third time. They admit that In pre-
vious years, after Republican land
slides, the Democratic case seemed
about as hopeless, and that the
Democrats have always had the ha-
bit of coming back. But they point
to the Republican case as some
thing different. They say that no
matter how badly the Democrats
have been upset in the past, they
have always had the Solid South to
fall back on. This block Of "Jeffer-
sonian" states, they add, has al
ways served as a rubber cushion on
which the defeated and falling
Democrats might rebound to subse-
quent victory. The Republicans,
they argue, have no solid block of
states to fall back on now. Even
New England seems to have de-
serted them, excepting the two lit
tie states of Maine and Vermont

Works Against Conservation
One thing that works against the
conservation Of game and fish in
Minnesota is the system established
by the legislature years ago Of re-
quiring the game and fish depart
ment to operate on the funds re-
ceived from game and fish licenses,
states Senator Fay Cravens. This
kind Of an arrangement has ten
dency to force the opening Of hunt
ing and fishing seasons whether it
is advisable or not from the stand
point Of conservation. It results in
the opening Of such seasons in or
der to provide funds which are
necessary If the department is to
continue to operate.
When first established the game
and fish department of the state
was given specific appropriation
of funds by the legislature and did
not depend on the issuance of licen-
ses for funds. Thus the question of
an open season was not involved
with the necessity Of acquiring

Early. Coins

In the reign of William and Mary
copper coins were struck in Eng

lima. Lord Baltimore had silver
shillings, 6 pence and pence made
in England to supply the demands
of his province of Maryland. Ver-
mont and Connecticut established
minis in 1785 for the issue of cop
per coin. New Jersey followed a
year later. But Congress had un-
der advisement the establishment
of a mint for the confederated
states, and in this same year
agreed upon a plan submitted by
Thomas Jefferson. The act went

Pyrethrin. Insect Killer

Pyrethrin is used to kill insects.
Many tons of pyrethrum are
brought into this country annually
from foreign countries, chiefly from
Japan. 1t is a strange crop to
most farmers in this country. The
pyrethrum belongs to the great
Compositae group Of plants, which
include the chrysanthemum, aster,
daisy, dandelion, ragweed, and
NORWOOD. The pyrethrum has
flowers that resemble the ordinary
field daisy.

The Word "Dun"

The word dun" is supposed by
some to be derived from the
French "donnez." The British
Apollo Of 1780 says, however, that
the word owes its origin to a Joe
Dun, a famous bailiff Of Lincoln in
the time of Henry VII. He is said
to have been so successful in the
collection of debts that his name
became proverbial. Whenever it
seemed almost impossible to make
a man pay, people would say, why
don't you Dun him."

unds for operation Of the depart,

funds for operation Of the depart
ment.
It is evident to those who have
studied the matter that the state
should go back to the former sys-
tenn Of providing an appropriation
for the department and require all
licenses and fees to be paid into the
state treasury. This would remove
the necessity for opening season
to provide funds for operating the
department, and would remove that
matter from the question Of wheth-
err q season should be opened or
not. There Is no question but that
the game and fish Of Minnesota
are being rapidly exterminated in
Minnesota, and that they will soon
be a thing Of the past unless sea-
sons are closed and kept closed
until the game and fish are allow
ed to increase sufficiently to not
cause excessive depletion when
season is opened. There can be no
real conservation of game and fish
as long as the department Is main
tanned by licenses and fees produc-
ed by opening seasons.-Eveleth

in Judgment over the news. There
are times when he must print the
truth regardless Of consequences.
And there are times when, for the
record of civilization, nothing will
be lost is the item about a wayward
girl, who might go straight II she
had chance, is laid aside. And
there are times, when at the cost
Of personal friendships, the official
shortcomings of neighbor must
be on page one.......tfmes when a
mothers love must not be disillu-
stoned, and times, when the editori-
al heart will be heavy trying to
decide what Is best and what is
honest, to print the cold facts as
they are, so that the readers may
know, or to suppress them to save
others from a misery that will scar
their souls to the end Of their days.
