Fighter Refuses
to Argue Skunk's
Right to Pheasant

Kenny Brown, Golden Gloves
boxer, isn't such a tough guy af-
ter all. <
Brown was really scared while
hunting in Redwood county last
weekend.
He was walking down a ditch
when he saw a pheasant running
through the willows and shot it.
He approached the bird only to
find a skunk had already gained
possession.
why didn't you shoot the
skunk" asked his brother, Leon
II. Brown of Redwood Falls.
81 was really rather anxious to
get out of that ditch" explained
Kenny.

MANY DETAILS TO BE
ATTENDED TO FOR
SMOOTH MEET

A vague idea of work involved
in arranging for and conducting a
state corn husking contest may be
cleaned from the fact that 100
men are listed N the bulletin re-
leased by j. I. Swedberg, county
agent and general chairman, this
week as committee members, re-
Ierees, judges, cleaners and other
officials.
This does not include drivers
or the volunteer Workmen now
building the platform, scoreboard,
refreshment stands and toilets or
the special police and the traffic
directors or the band and other
entertainers or the persons who
will supply the crowd with 'hot
dogs and java" in all numbering
$50 or 200.
Preparations were going for
ward rapidly this week with
every effort being made to direct
the crowd to the field from every
Cire ction by the shortest route, to
feed and entertain them while
there and get them started home
with the least possible inconven-
fence.
Crowd Uncertain
The size of the crowd is as un-
certain as the weather and likely
to depend to quite an extent on
the weather. A day such as fav-
o-ed the county contest might
bring 10000 to $4,000 persons,
many of them from the north and
west sections to which this is the
closest state contest every held, A
cold, dreary day might easily half
if not quarter these figures.
That the competition will be
keen is a foregone conclusion.
The southwest district especially
is expected to send five huskies all
title-bound. Art Johnson, state
champ, also comes from that re-
gion.
That the huskers will find plen-
ty of good corn to pick also is
certain. Berry Akers, editor of
the Farmer, selected the field and
has high hopes that a new state
record will be set there, partly
because he wants to refute cri-
ticism from the more southern
counties of the state, some of
whose residents think only nub-
bins grow north of their bound
aries. Ted Balko set the state
record, 28.217 bushels, in 1885.
Last year, poor corn year, a
mark of 1879 bushels won the
event.

T7ESTS among 2,152 men and women (of all

7oa of all people over the age of II hare bad

Ordinary cleansing methods, which merely
polish the exposed surfaces of your teeth, fail to
remove the decaying food deposits in hidden
crevices between your teeth. And these deposits,
tests show, are the source of most bad breath,

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

deavoring to absorb and remember ideas constantly foreign to them.
 If teachers are patient, and they are, then parents should be patient also. Children often get discouraged and confused if they think the standards held up to them to meet are beyond them. We should re- member that education is never complete, or perfect. The man doesn't live who is completely edu- cated, or ever will be. Education means to get as much as you can according to your ability and to retain what memory permits. Few Learn Readily
 No two children are alike in their powers. It happens that the majority absorb knowledge in the selected subjects for study with out too much effort, but a large mi- nority get only e certain portion and a great number fail entirely in one or two things.
 And so, if William is working reasonably hard this year, and still does not mee. hIs parents standards 1t would be better not to scold about poor marks and hold certain threats over his head, but to try to help him. Once he knows that the effort he is making is understood and appreciated, he may think more clearly. be more confident and sur prise everybody.

 The beauty of eyes, hair, skin, teeth and finger nails, as well as the figure, depends on proper food. One who wants to develop her full beauty potentialities and still retain attractive proportions without re- sorting to reducing diets must plan meals rather carefully.
 According to w. H. Evert, director of the New York Institute of Die tetics, teeth and nails need calcium, phosphorous and vitamins.
 '"This means plenty of milk, cheese, buttermilk, vegetables, such as tomatoes, cabbage. lettuce, onions turnips, radisheS, kohlrahi, aspara- gus and Swiss chard. Also fruits strawberries, grapes, grapefruit, pineapple and orange juice.
 "Iron helps produce red cor- puscles which form the foundation of an attractive complexion" MT. Evert continues. 'It is found in green vegetables-watercress dam delion greens, turnips, spinach. Egg yolk, liver and various fruits (raisins, dried figs and prunes, for example), also are rich in iron"
 Mir. Evert recommends milk and leafy vegetables (cabbage, lettuce, spinach) and fish and seafood for those who want to improve the condition of their hair. Italian girls owe liberal use of olive oil credit for their gorgeous, healthy dresses, he thinks.
 The dietetic scientist advises every woman who has to worry about her weight to get . calorie chart from her doctor or the local board of health. and to watch it carefully when planning her menus. 1t is possible to have all you want to eat and NOT gain weight. The trick lies in eating quantities Of low ealOrie foods instead Of small pore tions Of high caiorie ones.

STYLE CHATS

 (United Press Stan Correspondent)
 Paris (UP)-The hair line is de- finitely on the upgrade. Just as im- portant as the choice in fall clothes is the choice in cultures. Hair is going to be cut shorter than ever this fall, with e revealed forehead practically a must. This trend is due to the new hats for fall and winter wear, which are designed with upward shooting brims and reveal moSe hair than ever before.
 Curls, for very practical reason. too will be worn high oil the neck. After all, the collars of fur coats are hardly careful with long, train- ing bobS. Little, tight curls are in favor, cut short and brushed to about the level of the hair-line. There will be curls fashioned straight across the back of the head, or worn in tight, little punches high off the forehead or ct either side of the face.
 Bangs are worn only if curled and combed back from the forehead, depending. of course, on the type of hat worn. If . hat is discarded for the more formal occasions, glit- tering ornaments are 'deftly placed in hte hair. Jeweled bobby pins. combs. and clips are excellent. Even ribbons are effective and fiatter the youthful wearers. Feathers, too. are a high light and especially enhance the new eoiffure.

You, too, can win the man of your choicel
 Success in love isn't luck, you know. Don't let silly blunders cheat you out of admirers. Tuck these rules in the frame of your mirror:
 ]. Have confidence in yourself. Remember that a man is as inter- ested in arousing a girls admiration as she is in attracting him.
 2. If you're interested in a man, keep him guessing. No matter how much you're in love. refuse a date now and then.
 3. Be a bit helpless and capri cious. A man wants to feel pro- tective. prove he can take care of you.

How important are the marks . child makes in school? How much insistence on high marks is desirable? This Is the topic of the third of . series of special articles by Olive Roberts Barton, NEA- Waterbury Democrat child train
 ing expert.
 It is natural for parents to wish their children to make high grades in school. Many a mother today is secretly hoping that Williams re- ports will be better this year than they were last year, But father IS the one who raises a rumpus when he notices the ID" in grammar, or the failure in arithmetic.
 The experienced teacher will tell you that parents worry far more about poor marks than the school itself, although she is anxious to keep her records up and the entire school is jealous of it's reputation.
 When school starts, 1t might be better for William and all concerned if parents would consider 8 few points about lessons in general.
 Always Something New
 First of all, they are invariably hard. It is the very nature of lessons to be hard for the child of any grade, whether 1t be the ABC's of No. One, or the bank discount of No. Ten. Each day is new moun- tain to climb and entirely new ideas to master. School cannot be com pared fairly with any other job in the world. Mothers do their daily work as they have done 1t before, and fathers go about their business on pretty much the same track, too. Children are, on the contrary, en-
