More for Your Money
Number 4

Money is important only for what you can buy with it. What you buy is important only for the satisfaction it gives you. And greater satisfaction is the only thing that is important in getting more for your money
 That is why the service of advertising is so helpful. Merchants and manufacturers advertise primarily to sell their goods, but in the long run no advertising can be suc- cessful unless it helps the consumer to get more for his money The most important business job that each of us has to do, next to earning an income, is to buy the best possible living which that income can afford.
 Wherever we go, at any time of day or night we constantly see and hear many kinds of advertising On all sides, industry offers it's wares, presenting an enormous show window of everything that money can buy Nothing is overlooked. Beans, movies, garters, automobiles oranges, refrigeratOrs, fishing poles, asphalt paving, and cores pOndence courses. You decide what you want and spend your money accordingly. Adyer- Using gives you a worlds fair in motion, continuous parade of merchandise. The more you see of it the more you know about the worlds goods and the better you know how to make your material life happy one.
 By serving the interests of consumers everywhere, advertising does very impor- tant job for industry. It is the only means by which the huge quantity of goods pro duced today can rapidly be moveed to mar ket. Advertising is the most economical and most efficient part of the selling pro-

Dick Powell Sings at Coli scum in Hollywood
 Iiotel''

Ono cf the most lavish and spec tacula~ mus cal comedies of the 1886 sea scn. Hollywood Hotel a Warner Rr-e ~cluction starring Dick Pow ell and featuring a score or so of ether sCagsterS and funmakers had it's first local showing yesterday at the Coliseum Theatre.
 IL is based upon the famous radio program carrying the same name which has been beloved by air-fanS during the past three years. But the film has a well-knit story to serve as the dramatic structure.
 The film story shows Powell as an obscure orooner who comes to Hollywood looking for break, and gets involved in no end of unfor- tunate and humorous complications before he even gets started on his career.
 Dick sings half a dozen new hit songs by the clever composing team of Whiting and Mercer, and there is plenty of other music by Benny Goodman and his famous swing band, and Raymond Paige's we'll known orchestra. There is plenty of dancing, too, directed (as was the whole shoW) by Busb y Berkeley.
 Those clever sisters, Lola and Rosemary Lane, have the leading feminine roles, with Rosemary as Dicks romantic interest and Lola as highly temperamental movie star.

their scent-laden kitchens. Canes
are sold from one cent apiece to
a dollar apiece, the latter being
huge three pound giants.
Orders for their delicious
sweets-toffee is one of the fav-
orites-are received from many
other states and are sent as far
away as the Lauterbach's ances-
trail country-Germany.
Freshness is a part of the good
ness in their candies-and they
are fresh, because Lauterbach's
can use eggs, butter, milk and
cream which are fresh-and sell
the candies Immediately.
In shipped candy-or in cases
where candy is not sold imme-
diately from stock,-dairy pro-
ducts used in their manufacture
become rancid. Some large COM
panies even use dairy product
substitutes-but not Lauterbach's.
Their candy ingredients are
farm fresh.
Lauterbach Brothers are espe-
cially proud of their low prices on
fresh, toasted nuts and wish
especially to point them out this
holiday season.
Johnson's nuts in all varieties
are carried in the store-and
stored there in a heated case.
Take the bridge mixture for in
stance, a fancy mixture of nuts
without peanuts-sells for SO
cents a pound at Lauterbachs-
about 20 cents lower than the
same mixture in other stores.
Noon lunches, home-cooked
i, meals in varied menus, have been
served by Mike and Joe for the
last IL years.
Their buttery Kistwiches, spe-
cial toasted sandwiches, are per-
| haps the most popular single
item on their bill of fare.
! Tobaccos, cigars and smokers
supplies are featured, particular
| ly now, at Christmas time.
And Lauterbach's is the only
store in town carrying complete
line of religious articles-rosar-
les, prayer books and small stat
uetteS.
A suggestion for Christmas
would be their unusual little
statue of the Madonna, magical
ly illuminated to shine in the
dark.
They also bear the young folks
in mind and have provided for
dancing space for which music is

ton. There are no admission
charges and for one nickel all can

This room is especially popular
with school students after foot
ball and basketball games and the
popular "after the show-see you
at Mike and Joe's" are the part
ing words among the boys and
girls.

CHRISTMAS SEASON
BRINGS RUSH FOR
FINE CANDIES afg.

Mike and Joe are called by
their first names by thousands of
persons who probably could not
identify either of them.
It's the catchy, intimate trade
mark of Lauterbach Brothers
store which is largely responsible
for the remark, Redwood Falls
that's where Mike and Joe's
place is, isn't it," which you've
heard from scores of people whom
you've met out-of-town.
Their trademark, their thirty
two years of business in the city,
their huge stock of delicious
homemade candies, their popu-
lar Dutch Room their up-to-date
fountain service and tasty home
cooked lunches have made the
place widely known throughout
the state-and highly appreciated
here at home
Sons of a pioneer couple of
German ancestry, the brothers
purchased a confectionery bust
ness here January 10, 1907. At
that time they were located in
what is now the Dirlam Meat
Market building across the street
from their present store.
Their first move was to the
south half of the Jaehning build
ing December S, 1912. They built
their present establishment and
moved into it November 81, 1919.
1t is one of the largest places in
the city, its 35 by 80 foot size
giving $3.50 cubic feet of floor
space. Its regular seating capa-
city of $50 persons can be in
creased by another SO without
any inconvenience.
There has been no change of
name or management, but Mike
and Joe have increased their
staff considerably in the last 80
years.
In the beginning, Mike made
the candy and Joe operated the
gas engine which mixed and froze
the ice cream, as there wasn't "a
hour electric service here in those
days. SD
They formed the staff then.
Now they have II employees on
their payroll.
The store boasts the widest as
sortment of homemade candies
outside the five largest cities in
the state. Dozens of varieties:
chocolates, caramels, Judges, taft
fies, nut brittles, hard candies,
mint waters and filled candies
make up their stock.
just now ribbon candies, known
in the trade as "crimps," are be-
ing made with a special satin
finish for Christmas consumption.

and white striped canes are also

alike. He cooked his head, listening,
but the rush of wind and the con-
slant rustling drowned out any IA

the house.
He grunted. changed his direction
and started to walk again. After 10
minutes he stopped A smile played
about his lips. This was a hot one!
Lost in his own wheat field! Then
the thought vanished Suppose he
had been walking in the opposite d.
rection from the house? Suppose he
had been walking in circles? An
annoyance ran through his mind.
The wheat field was l,500 acres In
extent. 1t was as fiat as a pancake.
It's boundaries were irregular. There
were no landmarks to guide him.
He started to backtrack, but pre-
sently he discovered that the wind
had forced the bent stalks back into
place. He wasn't sure that he was on
his own trail.
He stopped again. celebrating,
cooking his head to listen. But there
was no sound other than the rafting
OF the stalks. He considered shouting,
but If Ruth discovered what had hap
pened she'd never get over joshing
him.

men going mad from losing their sense
Of direction. Foolish. Tomorrow the
harvest would begin. He'd hear the
sound of machinery. But no! When
he didn't return to the house, Ruth
would become alarmed and organize
the harvesters into posse to scour the
countryside. Why, he might wander
around here for days!
He ground his teeth. Dumbhead.
Tomorrow would be blistering hot.
He'd have no water. He'd become
raving maniac
terror seized him. He started to
walk again. He walked 100 yards in
one direction, then the same dis
tance in another, then in another.
1t got him nowhere.
The light was almost gone. He
hoped the wind would 60 down with
the sun, but it didn't. It blew hard
er. He tried jumping up, in the
hopes of seeing light. but he couldn't
get his head above the stalks. They
were too high. Almost seven feet.
He sat down. Then he got to his
knees and began breaking off stalks,
Might as we'll give in to the thing.
Might as we'll make the best Of it.
He began making bed of wheat
stalks. Nothing else to do. He lay
down and thought of Ruth. Good
lord, she'd be worried to death! The
harvest. The money his wheat would
bring. That Is. if there ever were
a harvest. But if they never found
him-if he wandered around for days
in his own wheat until he dropped
from exhaustion. =.
Joshua's last waking thought was
Of Jimmie and Ruth buying new
clothes with the wheat money. He
dreamed of being scooped up by
binder; wrapped in a stack with
dozens Of others; left in the sun to
fry.
When Joshua opened his eyes it
was daylight again The sun was al
ready hot. He felt stiff and sore.
Then he heard the sound of voices.
Two men were coming toward him.
He heard his name mentioned. They
were looking for him. He got to his
feet, shouted. Then men came run
ming up. Joshua took two steps to-
ward them and found himself on the
edge of the field. The house was
only stones throw away.
He looked at the men and they at
him. He grinned sheepishly.
II guess I musta laid down and
dropped off," he said weakly.
The men began to laugh. Then
Joshua saw Ruth coming from the
house. He sighed wearily. Last night
he'd never felt better in his life.
This morning he felt like a plugged
nickel.
