Old Age Insurance Claims
Certified for III in A priL.

Two hundred and Seventy-on one Min
nesota wage-earners who have reached
age IS or the families of wage-earners
who have died had old-age insurance
claims approved by the Social Security
Board during April, according to an
announcement by Frank H. Daily, in
charge Of the Duluth Office of the
board. The total amount of these 271
claims was So, 1929 or an average of
$45.86 per claim. This average figure
for Minnesota is higher than the ma
tional average claim of $4153.
Payments have been certified to 1,750
Minnesotans amounting to $50, 1875. 95
since the Inauguration of the old-age
insurance program.
"The Social Security Board now has
its machinery geared to approve an
old-age insurance claim every 80 sec
onds of each working day." Mr.. DAILY
stated. A total of 1880 claims were
approved by the board during April.
The Social Security Act provides for
the payment to a worker, who has
reached the age of IS, or to the estate
of wage Garner who has died, an
amount equal to 81 per cent of the
total of wages up to $1,000 received in
one year from any one employer.
Minnesotans who wish to file claims
are invited to call or write the Duluth
office of the board where claim forms
and help in filling them out are avail
able at no charge.

80 CHILDREN TAKE TRAIN RIDE.

Fairmont-Thirty- kindergarten
boys and girls had train ride recently
all the way from here to Welcome, and
for all but six of the 80, it was their
first ride, if not closeup view of a real
honeSt-to-goodness choo-choo train.
The expedition breathlessly awaited for
days, descended on the local depot long
before train time, under supervision of
Mrs. Merlon Madison, kindergarten
teacher, and several mothers. Most of
the kiddies even bought their own tic
kets, being hoisted on box first, and
then standing up to the ticket window,
where they handed over nine cents cash
for the six mile trip to Welcome
Youthful chatter filled the air when
the children went outside to greet
the oncoming train-but when the iron
horse wheezed to a Stop-not sound
came from them. They were, as they
say in the show business, simply ga-ga.
When the destination was reached
noisy travellers poured from the train
to tell their waiting mothers all about
it, Most of the mothers had come over
in cars to wait for the train and the
procession back to Fairmont formed
quite a caravan.

Speed
Limits Defined.

To clarity in the driving public's mind
what constitutes unlawful speed in
Minnesota, M j. Murray, chief of the
Highway partol of the Minnesota High
way department, this week issued the
following explanation
''On unzoned streets within the cor
porate limits of cities and villages the
law automatically establishes a speed
limit of 80 miles an hour On highways
not zoned the law establishes a prima
facie speed limit of As miles an hour.
This means that anyone driving over
40 miles an hour on unzoned highways
may be arrested and the burden of
proof that the driver was not driving
carelessly Or recklessly hes with the
driver, whereas anyone arrested while
driving under As miles an hour can
demand that the arreSting officers
present proof of careless or reckless
driving.
"On zoned streets and highways any
speed over the posted speed can be
considered a speed violation. The
zoned speed limits are: 20 miles an
hour in 20 mile zone; 80 miles an
hour in 80 mile zone; As miles an
hour in As mile zone, and 60 miles
an hour in go mile zone. However,
after shutdown, the speed limit in the
60 mile an hour zone drops to So"
The chief pointed out that at present
the only long stretch of road in the
state which is zoned for speed is T. H
1859 from Elk River to Grand Rapids.
Within a month, however, he said, other
specific stretches of the state highway
system will be posted for zoned speeds

Doctors Advise Gardens;
Warn Gardeners!

The coming of spring brings with it
new interest in hats, vacations and
vegetables.
All are regarded as important by the
committee on public health education
of the Minnesota State Medical aSsoci-
alton; but today's bulletin from the
association concentrates particularly
upon the third item because the new
green vegetables gathered fresh from
the backdoor garden are not only ap-
petizing but higher in mineral and
vitamin content than any that are
brought in at great expense in the
winter time.
The doctors therefore advise back
door garden for every body who has
any space at all that can be spared for
the purpose. Spring and summer are
the best time to store up a surplus of
the nutritional elements that are some
times lacking in winter diets and as
many of the fruits and vegetables of
the season should be raised at home as
it is possible for the home gardener to
look after
A word of advice to the gardener is
also included in the bulletin. That is,
to make gardening a matter of regular
healthful exercise and not to override it
in an excess of springtime enthusiasm
People who have spent most of the
winter indoors, listening to the radio,
should not suddenly embark upon
frenZied hOainr or violent eyercica of
any sort. For young people the process
may be merely uncomfortable. For the
older ones it may actually be danger
GUS.
To get the best out of the budding
new season, the medical society bulle-
tin counsels as many fresh vegetables
and fruits as possible-and moderate
exercise out in the fresh air and sun
shine.

zen are Just so much bunk, as far as
he's concerned. He doesn't vote at
either the primaries or the general
election. He never thinks of paying a
bill.
We have seen him take 50 taxi
ride without giving the driver so much
as a pleasant look. The driver only
stared at him, and muttered something
silly.
He won't work lick; he won't go to
church; can't play cards, or dance, or
fool around with musical instruments
or the radio So far as known, he has
no intellectual or cultural interests at
all.
He neglects his appearance terribly.
He's so indolent he'd let the house
burn down before he'd turn in an
alarm. The telephone can ring itself
to pieces, and he wouldn't bother to
answer it. Even on such controversial
subject as the liquor question, no
body knows exactly where he stands;
because one minute he's dry, and the
next minute he's wet. But Well say
this for him: In spite of all his faults
he comes of darn good family. He's

Drivers License
Leads to Another

Observation-Disclosures in regard
to the kind of license wanted made the
issuing of licenses a profitable business
for the local clerk of court. A young
Wadena man took his girl friend to
the Wadena court house to buy her a
drivers license Either he failed to
specify what kind of license he
wanted or the clerk in the office mis-
understood. A license to wed was prac-
tically filled out before the young man
or the girl noticed the error. Without
hesitation the young couple said, even
though they came for a drivers license,
they'd take the wedding license
