We people of Minnesota are justly
proud of our educational system.
/ pledge you to protect our schools
from political patronage interference.
l am certain you citizens realize
the tremendous job that faces any
Governor who is determined to put
the House of State in order, to put the
business of government on a bust
ness basis, to restore to the people of
Minnesota faith in their government,
and the certainty that that govern
ment is being administered in their
behalf, and not for the benefit of a
selfish few.
1t is task requiring all the time
and energy of the man dedicated to
this purpose. want above every
thing else to do good job, and /
will be on the job, and will spend
my time here in Minnesota, attending
to the business of the people of Min
neSota.
1t is the duty of the Governor
to enforce the laws of the state. !
will recognize no privileged classes,
but only the interests of the people
as whole. No group of individuals
will be permitted to decide what laws
are to be observed, and what laws
may be disregarded.
Not only have the ideals upheld
by our departed leaders been ignored,
but the present administration does
not even seek the advice of our iv-
ing pioneers. 1t prefers the advice
of those whose political philosophy
is the destruction of our democratic
institutions.
This vicious machine is now plan
ming the defeat of our senior United
States Senator Henrik Shipstead,
whose splendid leadership in the early
days did much to establish our party,
and whose recognized craftsmanship
today, lends glory to our cause.
1 appeal to you Farmer-Laborites,
who believe in our ideals, to aid in
accomplishing this victory.
: 1 appeal to you, independent men
and women who place the welfare of
your state above partisan politics,
to give your support.
l know that my hopes and plans

for Minnesota are ambitious, but my
faith in a successful democratic gov
eminent is equally strong.
I have the faith to believe the over
whelming majority of our citizens, re-
CARELESS of party affiliation, will rally
to the support of men who honestly,
fearlessly and conscientiously seek to
make our state government function,
to the end will not be burden, but,
a source of help to the people of Min

Falls From Bike, Hurt.

Arol Hansen, better known as
"Red," and part time clerk in the
Askov Hardware Co. store, is using
a crutch this week and travelling in
low speed. incidentally, if he had
been travelling in low speed Sunday
he would not now be using a crutch;
well, here is how it all happened.
RED" had been on the other side
of the river to practice target shoot
ing in the gravel pit, and when he
left to 60 home on his bike (not
automobile) he really stepped on it,"
for it is estimated that he was going
40 miles per hour down the hill;
in fact he was passing the guard
rail posts so fast he got dizzy; real
izing that he was going too fast he
applied the brakes-and right there
was the fatal mistake, for the brake
worked entirely too well, the rear
wheel locked it seems, the bike
swerved and over she went-"Red"
and the bike, but they soon separ-
ated; the bike seemed to be knocked
unconscious and never made move,
but Red" continued on down the hill,
over and over he rolled-frontward
backwards, sideways.
The doctor says there are no bones
broken but there are many black
and blue spots, sore spots, scratches,
ETC., to heal up, which all takes time
and also provides time for recalling
how fast he was going.
Mrs Jens Thomson of Winona, was
here Sunday for visit at the Werner

Rev. jobs. Knudsen and family and
Rev. Harris Jespersen were visitors

Mrs. Anime Mogensen returned the
first of this week from Minneapolis
where she recently underwent an OPP
Grafton at the University hospital.
She feels fine but will only be able
to do very light homework for sew
eral weeks.
A circular was recently received
here from a governmental department
wherein they state that drouth relief
checks will not be issued to Pine
county for the time being. There is
certainly just cause for disseminating
that kind of relief here.
At the Y p S. meeting Monday
evening Edmund Rix resigned as
treasurer of the society and Arid
Frederiksen, fifth member of the
board, was named to take his place.
Dennis Feldtmose was then elected
to be the fifth member of the board.
Rev.. Harris Jespersen of Viborg,
S. D., gave an interesting talk here
Monday evening before the Young
Peoples Society in the church par
lors. The following evening he met
with the officers of the society and
discussed plans for the district meet
ing to be held here the first days of
July.
Robert Sandahl had the misfortune
to be at the upper end of vaulting
pole at field meet in North Branch
Saturday when the pole broke and
he fell approximately eight feet to
the ground and injured his back. He
was taken to the hospital at Pine City
and remained there until Monday
when he was brought home. The ex-
tent of the injury is not definitely

Blackbird. Crow Closely Related

The blackbird and the crow are
closely related. Both walk, instead
of hopping as most other birds do.
The blackbird, also, is a marauder;
about the only good it does is to
feed on such insect pests as cut
worms and other soft-bodied crea-
lures, particularly during the breed
ing season. This bird also frequents
fields of corn, causing much dam
age to the young ears.

Fleur de Lis From French

The name fieur de lis which is COM
monty used for the stately wild
iris was borrowed from the French,
and means "the flower of Louis"
The name is derived from its selec-
ton by Louis VII of France as the
emblem of his reign. First named
the fieur de Louis, the spelling later
became corrupted to fleur de lis.

Trick of Kumorist

The famed American humorist,

In the middle of lecture he would

have an intermission of a quarter Of
an hour" Then, rubbing his hands,
the humorist would say, But dur
ing the intermission I will 60 on
