MILK AND HONEY STADIUM,
THE PROMISED LAND (KING-
STON) N. Y, July 0. NU.p)-A capa-
city crowd of 5000 angels and saints
perspired and fidgeted in the stands.
God, wearing a white seersucker
suit. arrived in a Buick convertible
chariot, and formally opened the
first annual heavenly Olympic
games in a speech that was brief
If not to the point.
peace, it's wonderful" he bel
lowed.
AS his voice rolled down the val
leys of the promised land, which
used to be q country club, the
angels and the saints rose from their
seats and, flapping their arms as
if they were wings, cried and cried
again:
peace, it's wonderful! Peace, it's
wonderful. Amt he sweet Amt
god cute. Man, amt he sump'n!
he's de almighty one for sure"
The object Of this outpour was
a chocolate colored man who signs
his checks Major" or Father"
Divine, who operates numerous
heavens in New York's harlem
and i'm eastern cities, and who,
with his ample supplies of cash
of mysterious origin, has brought
much real estate i'm this vicinity
as the promised land for the Ne
groes and whites who accept him
as diety and call him God. To
get the promised land off to
good start, Father decided to
throw himself heavenly Olym-
pics. Since I covered the earthly
ones at Berlin, il was only natural
(or was it?) that / should come
to this one. h
After Fathers opening pronounce
ment, chief angel in the big kitch-
en- struck a match to the eternal
flame. It burned brightly in a stove
beneath a mess of green's and a
pan of sliced potatoes. Another
angel thumped a drum and the
games were on.
The first event was the 100-yard
dash for married male saints, and
more than 400 of them went TO the
starting line. Father sat on the
finish line with stop watch. The
start was about as orderly as the
retreat from Moscow. Saints all
but fought for a place in the first
line. Finally some semblance OF
order was gained and the starter
cried, Peace, it's wonderful"
With his words the saints-some
of whom were not too sanity to
lump the gun--were off. The win.
ner was a long-legged saint who
sported a sailors cap and wore a
banner across his shoulder which
read:
Il am what am. No man can
hinder me. Thank Father Divine

How Birones stayed ON his feet
until the bell ended the second
round was the only thing the judg-
es were called upon to decide, and
neither Judge Ralph Brewer nor
Jurist L. E. Perry could begin to
| understand that. 1t was no sur
prise to anyone-not even to Bir-
ones-when he went down for ten
or more early in the third.

ed shot at the Brown Bomber
of the Eastside when he dispatched
Julian Estrada of Riverside with
a rocketing roundhouse that landed
just below Mister Estrada's left ear,
leaving Estrada on the canvas
dreaming of astronomy. Halman,
clad in bright green trousers and
noisey jersey. completed his eve

dusky brother at fistcuffs, Graves.
Brief Semi-finaI
Inc semi-final was a brief af-
fair, with hook-nosed Harry Sara
bin taking one on the chin from
frankie Jackson's glove, going down
for the count of eight, getting up,
taking another on the same place
soon after, and going down again.
Sarabin, on one knee, forgot to take
the knee off the floor when the
referee said ten" Jackson was
credited with a first round knock
out.
Tuffy Loudermilk earned his
nickname in another bout, but only
because he spent four rounds alb
sorbing everything Ike Blair had
time to toss in his direction-and
Blair was a pretty busy colored
boy in this respect. He took every
round and the decision
Most unpopular decision of the
evening was that by Referee Max
Spence to Donald Woodbridge af-
ter four vicious rounds with stocky
little jess Alfaro. The Post Press
score sheet. however, gave Woold-
ridge every round-the first be-
cause Alfaro's blows dropped low
on several occasions, and the others
because Woodbridge Won them by
fighting and Alfaro lost them by
riding an imaginary bicycle back
wards. Woodbridge lost popular
support because he got mad-and
showed it.
Benzor Loses
In the other bouts, TINT. Cobb,
Prescott. got technical victory
over Don Benzor when the Negro's
glove opened up a wicked cut be-
side Benzor's right eye, and Spence
stopped it for Benzor's protection
in the second round. Benzor took
the first round.
Bob Veigeron was credited with
technical Knockout in the third
when Treadway failed to answer

HOME BUILDING
GAINS LARGE
IN JANUARY

Building contracts awarded in
January were less than l per cent
smaller than in December, as COM
pared with the average seasonal
decrease of 8. 3 per cent in the last
liz years. according to the AleXan-
der Hamilton Institute.
AS compared with the volume in
January last year, non-resldentlal
contracts showed decrease, but
this was more than offset by a
sharp gain in residential contracts.
The increase in all contracts COM
bined amounted to 25.7 per cent.
Building activity in January was
stimulated by further rise IN
rents to new peak for the upward
movement. The rent index, on the
basis of 1926 as 100. was 81.l in
January. as compared with 80.8 in
December, with 73 in January last
year. and with 61.8 at the low for
the depression in January, 1884.
The rent index, however, is now
at an unwarrantedly high level
suggesting that building in the not
distant future may lose the stimu-
liant of rising rents. This would
tend to block a further recovery In
building activity in view OF the un.
favorable factor of high building
costs. Even the present rent level
is too low to permit a full recovery
of building at current costs, &C.
cording to the report. =
4 The cost of building continued
It's upward trend in January, with
the index rising to 1889, as com.
pared with 1915 a month ago and
1852 a year ago, the institute said,
adding that at the low for the de
preston, the index was 1872. Costs
= at the present time are above the
pre-depression level in 1929 when
the index was 99.5.

Christians Leave.

Many in the Askov community and
even elsewhere in the county are
sorry to learn of the removal from
the Askov community of Mr.. and Mrs.
George M. Christilaw and baby, Mary.
During the five years of residence
in this community and a somewhat
lesser period of time for Mrs. Christi
law the couple were married three
years ago) the Christians made
many lasting friendships. Their at
tendance at community gatherings
and their activity in community
and social undertakings have been
appreciated and distinct loss is felt.
Mr.. Christilaw, it is well known,
was the Minnesota Department of
Highways project engineer here and
he has had charge of the construction
of the new trunk highways in this
section during the past five years.
Friends are happy to learn, however,
that his removal to Duluth will give
outlet to a wider range of his execu-
tive and engineering ability.

their Russian colleague, Maxim Lit
not be mentioned; it was felt that if
the conference considered Italy the
actual menace, trouble might start
that very trouble for the prevention
of which the meeting was called. But,
as Litvinov said in speech at Nyon
THE name of the nation involved is
on everybody's lips"
AS there was agreement to remain
silent concerning the identity of the
offender, it became necessary to for
get past happenings and concentrate
effort on preventing their repetition.
A plan was then adopted, after
having been presented jointly by
Great Britain and France; in the
main, its stipulations were the fol-
lowing:
The Mediterranean Sea is to be
partitioned for patrol purposes into
several regions; that part of the south
ern ocean which lies between Gibral-
tar and the southernmost tip of Sicily
will be watched by British and
French destroyers; other squadrons,
Russia's one of them, will be on guard
in other parts, and Italy herself was
invited to take part in the patroling,
but is expected to decline as mat
ter of principle.
To begin with, IS British and Is
French destroyers will be stationed
in the Mediterranean, and number
of airplanes also will be directed to
that sea. Orders have been given
to shoot at sight at any submarine
which gives evidence of wanting to
attack non-Spanish shipping.
Whether the scheme will accom-
plish anything remains, of course,
problematical. On former occasion
q nations agreed to enforce policy
of strict non-interference with the
Spanish civil war, and that cannot
be described as having been success
full. -.g.~
The main purpose achieved so far
appears to be the averting of open
friction between Russia and Italy.
And that, of course, is something, for
should conflict arise between those
two powers, it goes without saying
that others would be drawn into it.
=" Opposing Forces. -
The Spanish civil war itself is
clearly enough a combat between fas-
cism and more liberal systems of
policy; it is indicative of the con-
trast seen on a vaster scale outside
Spain, for when Italy adopts hostile
attitude toward Russia, or, at least
an unfriendly one, it is done with the
knowledge that Germany looks at
Russian communism in the same light.
Even the Sino-Japanese war mirrors

A Local Woman Is
An Iowa Visitor

Mrs. Anton Hansen has recently
returned home from Moorhead, Iowa,
where she had visited with relatives
for three weeks. Mrs. Hansen re-
ports that the Iowa corn crop has
suffered somewhat from the dry
weather and hot winds and among
other things she did while in the Iowa
community was to attend a reunion
of the Jensen and Johnson families.
which appeared in the local paper in
Moorhead. The item which describes
the affair, follows:
1.-THE Jensen and Johnson families
held their annual reunion last Sum-
day at the City Park. 1t was an ideal
day for a picnic. One hundred and
Sixty-Seven relatives and a few viSi-
tors were present, coming from Flan-
dreau, S. D., Askov Mimi, ERADICATE,
Gilmore City, Gowrie, Harlan, Nicola,
Magnolia, Castana, Sioux City, Den
yer Colo, and Brunswick, Neb.
A Social Time.
"a bountiful dinner was served at
noon. The afternoon was spent in
visiting, pitching horseshoes, while
some of the young people went roll
Ter skating at the State Park. A bust
ness meeting and a short program
was held, consisting of three group
songs, a talk by A. j. johnson and
the election of officers. One of the
interesting parts of the program was
the gifts, which were made by Aaron
Palmer of Flandreau, and presented
by his mother, one to cousin who
came the longest distance to attend
this reunion, which was awarded to
Mrs Esther Hansen of Askov, Mimi.
the other to the oldest cousin present,
who was Mrs. Inger Thorgersen of
Harlan. These ladies appreciated
their gifts very much. |
ut was with deep regret that our
honored guests numbered only two
this year, namely, Mrs. John H. John
son and Mrs. Ellen Jensen. Three
Iof the original eleven, who immigrated
from Denmark, passed to the Great
Beyond this last year. These old
folks were sadly missed, especially
Uncle Mark Jensen who always had
given an interesting talk at these
meetings. In due respect to our de-
parted loved ones, a silent prayer of
80 seconds was held.
"a letter was read from Mrs. Mark
Jensen, who was unable to attend
this year as she is visiting at her
