Johnny Stone, ailing Washing

infection, was today in the hands
of the Washington club physician,
who was to recommend a spe-
cialiSt.
Stone, for weeks in q batting
slump, had kept his allment a
secret, hoping to outgrow it, but,
when the condition became un-
bearable on the current Western
trip of the team, he told all and

Washington for treatment.
Today, at his apartment in the
Broadmoor, Stone said he was feel

rat terrier ana was an eX-
tremely well-known dog, although
today he is seldom seen. The
breed is a product of the mining
regions of Manchester, England.
Although spirited and courage
Gus, he is at times apt to be very
short-tempered and snappy. He is
a beautifully set up small dog
and only a little less slender than
the Whippet and Doberman pin
scher whose blood he bears from
earlier crossings with the heavier
and more coarSely bred terriers of
that territory.
This type was originated and
developed in the Manchester Sec
ton by a group of men whose
hobby was the sport Of rat killing.
In the beginning, these terriers
we're placed in a pit into which
captured rats were let loose to be
destroyed as swiftly as the dogs
were able to do so. WagerS were
placed on these rat-destroying
CANNES by owners and spectators,
as to which animal would kill the
greatest number Of rodents in the
shortest length of time.
In order to obtain a breed salts
factory to the sport, this original
mongrel type of terrier was crossed
and re-crossed with other breeds
until the present type was finally
developed.
Today, he is almost entirely
black except for the mahogany

Weighty Future

High school graduates who are
about to 60 out into the world and
take up cares and problems which
have heretofore seemed vague to
them, will indeed face weighty prob
lens such as few other generations
have faced. They may thank their
parents and school authorities for
material gifts of facilities, affection
and kindness; they may express ap-
probation for the skill and perse-
verance with which they have been
trained, but for the world they face
today, they cannot thank us.
AS stated editorially in the Mime
apolis Tribune recently, there are
approximately six million students in
the nations schools today where SO
years ago there were only a little
over 100 thousand. 1t is weighty
future, indeed, which the high school
graduate faces and if our training
has been of the right sort he will
face that world with strong heart
and well equipped mind, but if we
have been reactionary in our educa-
ton then he will have, so to speak,
two strikes on him at the outset.
Of course, the unemployment sit
uation is the greatest curse which the
high school graduate has to face today
and his test of intelligence will come

NOT so BAD HERE
or Askov American:

Editor ASkov American:
An old adage runs, Facts are the
most stubborn of all things" In
reading the papers and listening to
the programs over the radio, per-
son could come to the conclusion that
business in Minnesota is falling to
pieces and that it is behind the aver
age business of the rest of the United
States.
However, I have in my hand re-
liable financial report, indicating in
general that in spite of the present
national recession, business condi-
tons in Minnesota are improving and
are substantially better than a year
ago. Especially in both st. Paul and
Minneapolis. Why then all this
bologny about business leaving the
state? Anyone even if he has moth
ing but sawdust knows desirable
business will not leave a state where
conditions are good. Maybe some of
our friends would like to see return
of the ''Muskrat Farm" and FoShay
development era. Now that business
is on a firm basis it is essential that
the management of the state be left
in the hands of those who know
a little about under what conditions
legitimate business can prosper. With
another good crop probably, it would
be suicide to turn the management
of the state to those with peanut
rooster ideas of economics.
Getting the state back on an equit-
able economic basis has been hard
work. Many who have spent life
time in learning business have util-
lied their time and experience in
getting proper Federal and state leg
islation. All this could be lost and
the state could be dashed back into
economic chaos, if people with about
a three months correspondence course
in economics or a smattering of
knowledge about industrial conditions
and economics were put in charge
If some of the cockeyed ideas we
hear nearly every night and see quite
often in the papers are put in effect
this state will drift back into economic
and industrial stagnation. Mistake:
have undoubtedly been made, some
waste perhaps, but the good results
so far outweigh the bad results thai
a general change now-would be
folly.

AGAINST BEER ADVERTISING
.ditor ASkoV American:

Editor Askov American:
Having written in to your paper
recently on another subject, I hest
tated to come again so soon, but
two issues have passed since you car
ried that beer advertisement and al
though I've heard quite bit of dis
approval I haven't seen any protest
in your columns Yesterday I read
this: "When religion loses its note
of challenge against the evils of the
world, its loses its power" and that
spurs me on to express myself again.
Up in this part of the county we
have good many religious people.
We like the Askov American because
it has been such a clean paper and
because it has stood for other things
we as farm folk are interest in. May
be we should have told the editor
before what we liked, or maybe it's
just lately become necessary to lobby
for every good thing we want.
Everybody knows money spent for
booze can't be spent for shoes, or
bread, and it takes more grain for
bread than for liquor so the grain
farmers would prosper more if peo-
pie bought bread than if they spent
their money for liquor. Science
proves that beer is harmful. Two
glasses of beer contain enough alcohol
to double or treble drivers reaction
time, thereby being the cause of
accidents even though the driver does
not look or act drunk.
Recently "The Voice" of the Board
of Temperance of the Methodist
church and "The Union Signal" Of
fetal organ of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union published the
names of $50 United States dailies
that bar hard-liquor ads, and 178
dailies that ban beer copy. If all
those papers can make go of it with
out the liquor peoples money don't
you think, Mr. Editor, that the Askov
American can too?
