Daylight" and hailed by the news

headline hunter de luxe" visited in

he visits every scene made famous
by authors, and his visit to Sauk

book, MAIN Street" He met Sin
clair Lewis a number of years ago
and since has wanted to visit this
city, but this was his first oppor-
tunity. While at the Herald office

pings, accounts of his travels about

Memories From Early
Pioneer Life

dozen hens and one rooster. Our
every day living consisted Of gra-
ham bread, or mullins, vegetables
besides potatoes, plenty of milk
cream, butter and wild berries.
Raspberries strawberries, both
cultivated and wild. One fact I
must emphasize we three children
had no tooth decay during our
childhood and I was twenty years
old before lost one tooth. After
my marriage during the years
when our four children were COM
ing, tooth decay was very rapid,
and one dentist who was consider
ed most proficient advised me to
just delay my dental work for the
few months necessary to pass the
time until the birth Of one OF my
children. One of my sons now a
man of fifty has had very little
trouble with his teeth, but his son,
of 81 years, must very soon get
himself a plate and false teeth.
I am convinced that it is due to
eating soft foods not adapted to
the formation Of bone which is the
cause of rapid decay in children's
teeth. We were unable in early
days to save lives from illness as
medical knowledge was totally in
adequate. 1t was almost certain
that to a child of six years scarlet
fever would prove fatal. My young
sister died after two weeks of vio-
lent illness. A forest fire burned up
the down timber and the dry pop
pie which had been the popular
dry wood for the first years Of our
stay. My frail mother stood at the
edge Of the mighty holocaust of
rageing fire with mop and pail
keeping it back until men with
plows came and made burrows
around our buildings. The cabin
had in the meantime burned to the
ground. Afterword another cabin
was built more substantially. The
singles were made from blocks of
wood sawed by my father, then
split with a broad axe and shaved
one by one with a draw shave on a
shave horse built by himself. ! MY
grandchildren do not comprehend
my terms when I try to tell them
OF these early happenings. They
have no mind picture of those
every day articles of what is still
SO familiar to me.
After the forest fire to which I
have alluded the new growth of
young trees were not destroyed ex-
cept the growth was stopped, but
later they took the place of the dry
peoples that were there earlier and
mad been years before young trees
and their growth stopped by a for
est fire.

SET LINES MAY NOT

Set lines are illegal in Minnesota
fishing. Attention is called by Di-

of set lines, and game wardens are

"Set lines" is defined to be line

PUBLIC FORUM
TO Taxpayers of Sauk Centre:

10 taxpayers or Sauk Centre:
am one of those who voted mo"
at the last school election for which
I have been criticized. My young
nephew said, Don't you want US
to have a new school?" I explain
ed that we were not voting on a
new school but on a large bond is
sue to pay for a new school-a prac-
tice I could never be in favor of as
I am one Of those old fashioned
persons who believe in pay as you
CO." A $4,000 bond issue costs
you at the end Of twenty years just
about $28O,OO0. It takes just twen-
ty years for money at percent in
terest to double itself-so one dol
lar worth Of school really costs us
two dollars-a very foolish bargain.
It has been said that the renters
of Sauk Centre voted in this large
bond issue and not the taxpayers
which believe to- be true-and in
view Of this fact I believe rents all
over Sauk Centre should immediate
ly be increased ten per cent start
ing July first to bring home to them
(the renters) just what they voted
for.
There are some very large school
buildings in this state that are on
ly half full Of pupils-and remem-
ber renters can leave when business
conditions require a change, but
property owners must stay and pay
the taxes or lose their homes.
There should be no protest from
the renters on this 10 percent in
crease in rents because I heard
many Of them say good schools
are worth all they cost" But a
ten percent increase IN rent might
have changed the results Of the last
school election.
