Suitless Far From
Home, Speaker Finds
| Right-Sized Friend

Wabasso - Wallace Simpson,
superintendent of schools here,
ordinarily isn't regarded as an
absent-minded professor, but his
friends couldn't refrain from
rubbing him after one he pulled
recently.
Scheduled to make the gradual
ton address in Vienna, Simpson
drove $50 miles into South Dako-
ia, wearing his everyday trousers
and shirt. He left his best suit, to
be changed into after his arrival,
hanging neatly at home. With
three hours to go before exercises
started, he was fortunate to find
a friend who had just purchased
suit which fit Simpson to per-
lection.
While Simpson perspired free
ly until he secured the suit, his
wife, who remained at home, did
more worrying than her husband,
wondering how he was going to
appear on a public platform.

next 25 years will overshadoW
those of the last SO or even loo
years, he predicted.
Nothing can prevent an i'm
provement in living conditions

everything yet accomplished, he
said, unless we get into another
war or change our form of gov
eminent too much.
He opened his talk with the
statement Il am happy tonight
despite the fact that the king and
queen of England are over here
trying to sell us on helping them
in another foreign war. 1t is the
American way to mind our own
business. We must get our own
house in order. We cannot let
anyone sell us on going to war
unless we are attacked"
Touching on a wide range of
subjects in his rapid-fire talk,
which he boaSted he had given
$50 times, he criticised admins.
tration policies, saying 'They are
making SoftieS of us and we are
making SoftieS of our children"
but took pains also to compli-
ment government activity in re-
search fields and its work in
cleaning up racketeering.
Necessity isn't the mother of
invention anymore" he said,
"JuSt the step-mother. The gov
eminent will take care Of you.
To-day we have new species
in politics, not philanthropiSt
but a philanthropoid, fellow
who goes to Washington or st.
Paul to get some of your money
to spend as if it were his.
There is no substitute for
work. The government can feed
you but it can't make you sue
cess. Only work will do that"
Building his opportunity theme,
he dwelt on scientific discoveries,
processes now being perfected
which will change living in the
next decade.
He also praised highly, south
ern Minnesota, Redwood Falls
schools and the University OF
Minnesota. He called the new
school here, "a little better than
anything I've seen anywhere"
Airline Waller, valedictorian,
paid high tribute to the sacrifices
of parents in her brief but effec-
tive talk and thanked the COM
munity and the faculty on behalf
of the class. Mary Dwyer spoke
of the "World of Tomorrow" in
the salutatory, her delivery and
subject matter equally indicative
of the training received.
