As Sissy of the Week, here's
that man Rex Miller again.
Anguished cries of Help, Help
rose to the dining room of the
Mint cafe Wednesday. Customers
rushed to the street, mattresses
tc the basement where Miller had
gone to get some hog cholera SER
UNI stored in a cooler.
As feminine rescuer descend
cd the stairs, she found Miller
with Cora who was helping him
turn on lights. Cora had been
peeling potatoes, was still carry
ing a tiny pairing knife.
Help" shrieked Miller, "She's
going to attack me-"

A. man in one of our downtown
government offices this week had
another man in his office wanting
to buy small farm. Our govern
ment man knew of real estate
salesman who had just the thing.
He called him, introduced the sell

A few days later the real es-
tate salesman came in, said, 81
sold that farm and got good
deal.

Our county attorney who used
to trudge two and a half miles to
country school through storm and
sleet is also bordering the vagar-
les of the human race.
A relief family here applied for
more aid recently, with the result
that no more relief was granted
and what's more their car license
plates were taken from them.
This family lives right in the
city of Rdwood Falls where gen.
erations have trudged to school
through storm and sleet.
But Monday when it rained,
Mr.. Reed had a communication
from the mother of the family.
She demanded that those license
plates be returned so the children
could be driven to school.
P. S. They weren't.

A pure heart is the best regu-
latOr for an active tongue.
See how far you can carry a
juicy secret without spilling it be-
fore you boast of your power OF
endurance.
Tuition in the school of exper-
fence is higher than in other
schools.
Memory at rest with beautiful
thoughts of the yesterday makes
old age pleasant.
Every active Sunday school
adds to the joys of Uncle Sam,
and every active Night club adds
to his worries.
The prisons are filled with folks
who felt sure they could get by
just this one time.
Unless you are on the right road
going in the right direction you
cannot expect to arrive at the
proper destination

ANY COURSE THAT WILL KEEP

America out of war is generally acceptable
but which course will attain that end is
highly debatable. One thing is certain. Any
move to finance a European war with
American capital must be blocked at once
and completely.

NATIONAL HUSKING CONTESTS
aren't going to be the same to Redwood
county residents this season. Almost every
year for decade we've had one of the fav-
orltes hustling up the rows, twice to bring
home the national title, always to place
among the first half dozen. 1t was a record
to hold the interest of every county resident
and big percentage of Mnnesotans.
Now 49, Ted decided to retire after
winning his second title last season and
rather than risk weakening when the husks
are crisp this fall, he entered the champion
OF champions tourney at Fort Dodge, Iowa,
which under ruling put in force last year,
made him ineligible for future state and ma
tional meets sponsored by the agricultural
papers.
Retiring as champion, Ted leaves
record of successful participation and eff
cheney under various conditions that perhaps
never will be equaled Others have husked
more corn in the given 80 minutes, but no
man has entered year in and year out, husk-
ing where corn is tall and ears huge and
where it is relatively small and short, where
fields were dusty and where one skidded and
slid in mud with such consistent and mark
ed success. When friends howled of bad
breaks and raw deals, the latter after a
Nebraska contest, Ted said little and bided
his time in demonstration of sportsman
ship comparable with his husking.
Ted is out 50 far as more national titles
are concerned, but to the thousands of fans
who followed his record and watched him
work, he will be the champion of champions
until some husker builds a more impressive
record. That is not likely to be soon

LONG URGED BY FRIENDS AND

challenged by opponents to state his third
term plans, President Roosevelt has played
waiting game, leaving the nation and pre-
sumably even his closest friends in doubt as
to his intentions. Gradually many have
come to the opinion that instead of seeking
further honors for himself, he is awaiting
an opportunity to boost some faithful friend
into the limelight as the logical nominee.
Perhaps instead he allowed the suspense
to continue in anticipation of time when
his declaration might be the means of a
trade with opponents to win some worth
while political battle.
Sharp, reliable Alfred d. Stedman,
Washington correspondent for the ST. Paul
Dlspatch-Pioneer Press, indicated Tuesday
night that the stage may be set for such a
declaration to serve in "adjourning politics"
to obtain passage of what Roosevelt believes
to be a sound neutrality program If so the
suspense may prove well worth what it cost
in uncertainty and political prognosticaton
A REDWOOD COUNTY FARMER

have 35 cent corn and no war than SO cent
