Sank Centres Fine New Bridge

Nearly one hundred thousand
dollars from Federal, State, and
City of Sank Centre sources found
it's way into a bridge and dam pro-
ject over Sank Lake which was def
initely completed this year. The
bridge, erected by the State OF
Minnesota Highway Department
was opened for traffic December
Is, 1885.
In June the work of the beautifi-
cation and landscaping of the ter
rains en- either side of the bridge
was completed. 1t comprised the
planting of 500 trees and shrubs,
and Of grading the terraces and
banking them with rock. In Sept
ember of this year the final step of
the bridge was finished with the
laying of the bituminous treatment
on the north approach.
The III foot, 3 span, concrete
structure, begun in 1885, now
crossing Sank Lake on Main
Street was erected at cost of ST.
38t. 354 foot approaches are includ-
ed in the project. There is 40
foot roadway and foot sidewalks
to accommodate traffic. The old
still bridge it rplaces, was erected
in 1890 at a cost of $4,000.
At the same time the Water,
Light and Power Commission de-
cided to replace the old wooden
dam with one of modern concrete.
The contract was let for $18,963
The work on the 100-foot structure,
with a 70 foot spillway, was done
in the fall and winter of 1886. The
new structure replaced a dam that
had stood since 1867.
Work in the City Park, under
City and WPA funds, during the

THANKSGIVING EDITORIAL Striving For Something More

CEED of that happy phenomenon D Thanksgiving was sown back in the legendary days of our earliest settlers when, around the third Thursday of one cold, snowy November, they came to the conclusion that their half loaf was better than none - and gathered to praise the thought.
 By grace of public proclamation and a national weakness for turkey, that earnest little beginning has grown into custom of sturdy proportions.
 And as a custom 1t is good one-so ap- propriate, In fact, that 1t stirs conjecture of what might happen if we made 1t year-round proposition.
 IMAGINE all the cliques and classes, all the social and economic subdivisions of the nation giving up their private ambi- tions in order to keep the Thanksgiving spirit at high tide for, say, 12 whole months. ,.a
 Strife and turmoil would disappear nagically. The labor wars would fold up and collapse; there would be no more high tax worries no more carping at Nazis and Communists. There would be no concern over Japans war on China, or the high cost of living, or the neighbours rowing chickens, or Siwash's fifth football defeat of the year. Everybody simply would be too grateful for the status quo.
 Tn plainer words life would be lust too
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-11-24

A four.and.a.half.line dispatch waited out of Washington the other day and promptly elbowed aside by the boisterous events of the pre- ceding 24 hours, recites that after working at he job since the seven. ties the United States geological survey has got the United States nearly half mapped.

 Well, there is plenty of time. The face of the earth changes somewhat. We slice 1t and Srneer 1t to make our great railways and highways. We cut the forests and let It's integu. ment wash down into the rivers. We plant and blow where nature does not wish Us to do so, and the epic demic of large area of our native land blows away. Still, the shape of the country remains about what 1t was. It can wait until the sur veyors, perhaps two generations hence, run the last contour line and ride slowly back to camp.

Virile Industry

The present session of Congress is be- ginning to resemble the meeting of that western frontier debating society, whose president announced that the evenings topic would be What's this country com- ing to?" with the high school teacher taking the affirmative and himself the negative. Which is to say that while Congress is full of talk about what this country may be coming to, 1t is having a mortally hard time deciding just what the affirmatice and negative sides of the issue should be-
 There is the matter of the budget, for instance. Congress wants to see govern ment expenditures cut, but the cutting tool has handle like red-hot poker. The army and the navy are costing enormous sums, and bid fair to cost more; but with the world in the state 1t is in, the army and the navy look like flrst-rate insurance which is worth what ever 1t may cost.
 Then there is relief - a stupendous!y expensive thing, which must be bitten into pretty materially if we are to get our government costs down to anything re- sembllng normal. But while Congress sides up to this subject, the Cassandra voices of the conference of mayors ring MI US GulS, Wdl Illl6 tilGtv " SNV ASAASA "AAA be to invite trouble by the carload lot.
 Mayor LaGuardia of New York says bluntiy that relief is going to cost more, not less. The present business recession, he warns, means increased unemploy- ment; far from taperng off, the relief load Is duo to increase, and increase ma terially, in the coming winter. Mayor LaGuardia Is followed by Mayor Harold H. Burton of Cleveland a conservative Republican. Conservative Burton talks just like Left-Wing LaGuardia, when relief is mentioned. Cut off the federal relief program, says Mayor Burton, and in Cleveland 100000 people will be com. pelled to choose between starvation and a laWess search for food"
 Other mayors talk in the same vein; and from their remarks one senses that the relief load, onerous though 1t Is, IS something that can neither be talked away nor ignored. We still have this enormous undlgested mass of unem- ployed men; humanitarian reasons aside, we cannot, in sheer sef-defense, do any thing but continue to carry 1t as long as 1t exists.
 Which seems to indicate, then, that our immediate salvation may not lie in the direction of cutting expenses and slicing into the deficit. We should stop spend- ing scores of millions on relief but we can't do 1t while need exists; the need will go on existing until private industry Is able to absorb the jobless workers.
 So Congress might well think about in- dustry instead of the federal treasury, for while. It might think about that delicate, tenuous thing called confidence, and how 1t can be restored; about the proposition that If government can't get business back on its feet, 1t could try let. ting business get back unaided -- and unhampered. For our problem can be solved, apparently only in terms of Q genuine business rival
