European nations, looked upon as some
what barbarian in America because of their
attitude toward war, thoroughly enjoyed
the United States embarrassment when
Colonel Lindbergh moved his family to

publicity. Europe's claim to laugh on us
is the result of our permitting good deal
of the riff-raf there to come here to live.
Part of our relief rolls and many of our
racketeers are the result of this lenieny.

Editors Inning

TIHERE ARE, if you've noticed, three
kinds of editors. One seeks favor by
never saying anything editorially to
offend anyone. He is useless soul because
eventually he gets down to patting the same
handful of people on the back so frequently
that you know what he will write before
you read it. Then there is the strictly part
isan type who sees no good in the other side,
lambasts the opposing party logically and
and illogically, right and wrong, because he
loves to delight those who believe in his
cause and hopes the other fellow will read
his paper just to find out how mean he was
last week. The third category includes men
prejudiced only in the normal amount due
all humans but with an evident desire to be
fair, honest and beyond prejudice.
Funniest part of it all is that all we
editors, ostrich-like, think we are in the
third class while most readers probably
place us in either the first or second.
Last week with the AAA as subject
matter, it was interesting to see the first
group digging into the new deal bit and
then quickly undoing the mischief by SYM
pathizing with the farmers out on route
three who are about due to pay up their
papers for another year. The second group
had a big week, route three farmers be dam
ned, twas swell chance for political in
ming. If anyone contributed anything TO
the situation, as usual it was the third
group

Heavy mailing which brought Redwood
Falls postofice receipts to $22,O68.76 last
year compared with $20,552.08 in 1884

should prove a powerful weapon.

mands made by persons seeking 10
cations for the establishment of
business.
For example, the latest applicant
in his petition wanted some one to
construct a building at least 40 by
100 feet, one story high, Z years
free electric light and power, 19
years free taxes, and at the end
of the ten-year period to be given
free deed to the building and the
land on which it is situated.
Others are after heavy financial
investment from our local residents
or banks. Only one applicant has
applied who wanted nothing other
than a rented building in which to
carry on his business. I often
wonder what became of the many
buildings that housed the industry
of 1S50-83. I shall not attempt to
detail the industry that now exist
in Smyrna or give statistics on the
amount of business done yearly.
The Business Mems Association
is ready and willing to receive the
petitions of any applicant desiring
to locate in or near the Town of
Smyrna, to counsel with them and
advise to the best of our ability,
the assets and limitations of our
community.
Smyrna has achieved public rec
ognition in the most recent years
/ by the Christmas decorations,
which are admired by the many
travellers over the highways and
visitors to our town. But, the most
notable achievement of the Busi-
ness Mems Association was their
interest in having the State We'll
fare Home located here.
The Business Men have for sew
eral years assisted in charitable
work and stand ready to assist in
any degree any enterprise that will
result in a Better Smyrna in which

In closing, let us not forget some
| of the illustrious men that have
gone forth from Smyrna: Com
mander John Paul Jones, Hon.
John Bassett Moore, Bishop Cum
minis of the P. E. Church; John
Cummins, one of the signers from
Kent County for ratification of the
Constitution of the United States;
the early Spearmans, the Mustards,
Cloaks, and several others who
have long since passed away.

ders are unobServed by visitors.
Nature has fittingly surrounded
the great peak with glorious dis
play of splendor so that the park
is a scenic paradise. Singing cas-
cadeS, glinting waterfalls, torren-
tial glacier streams and trout-filled
creeks are only some Of the sights.
FISH PLENTIFUL
Mountain meadows are clothed
with gorgeous flowers and the
mountainsideS are richly verdant.
Silent rivers Of solid ice, miles long,
gnaw their way out of mountain
retreats. Some Of these glaciers
contain more ice than all the gla-
ciers Of Switzerland.
The lakes are all lovely and
sportsmen rejoice in the abundance
of grayling and fighting trout.
Wild life is plentiful in Mckinley
National Park, and the visitor soon
glimpses caribou, moose and noun
tain sheep, as well as the black
and the grizzly. bear. The mink,
the lynx, the fox, the wolverine
and the beaver are all plentiful.
But beyond all these fabulous
sights and rare beauty, there is
something more in this vast ma
tional playground. For here one
finds complete rest, a sense of re-
motenesS and detachment from
life and its perplexities that en-
riches the spirit and soothes the
mind. ones understanding of
mankind becomes bigger and
broader as one comes nearer to
