WINTHROP HAD IT'S MIDSUMMER
fpicnic June Is, just four days after the first
fday of summer according to our calendar.
A PARAGRApHER WHO THINKS
nationally suggests that the tailors who cut
tout the girls bathing suits should be placed
in charge of the government budget.-St.
James Pfaindealer.
| HONESTY IS NO DOUBT THE BEST
policy but it would be handy occasionally to
4 be able to tell white one as eonvincingly as
the resort owner assures you, ''The fish were
certainly biting fine here yesterday"
A SAD COMMENTARY ON 1889 CIV
Filizatien is that we are inclined to respect
Ecountry for its domination of the war plane
industry or the strength of it's navy. Gull
ture is measured by standing armies.

them again, but the king and queen are
safely back in England. Safely, that is, so
far as the king and queen are concerned.
Whether they sold America ON financing and
lighting England's battles remains to be
tseen.

! buy at home" advocates find every
thing they could ask for in the butter in

third of the worlds butter. Redwood coun-

state That's why dairy month observance
is extremely important locally.

WE LAUGH LOT ABOUT WOMEN'S
styles but aside from (that is below and
above) their hats and shoes, the women at
least look comfortable. That's more than
you can say for man with a coat tight
collar and tie when it's 80 in the shade. The
trend of new outfits now shown in stores is
encouraging, however.
ASIDE TO SENATOR LUNDEEN:
Sorry we can't wax enthusiastic over your

THE AIM OF MODERN EDUCATION
is ito help youth find the truth" A truth,
incidentally, about which the instructors,
even the college presidents, are not at all
sure. 1t is splendid aim the modern YER
sion of hitching ones wagon to star. Only
danger, and we suspect "the truth" is it's
real one, is the sighting of such essen
tiols as spelling, grammar, arithmetic with
which today's graduates are none too fami-

IT rs TOO EARLY YET TO CROW
over the success of the states new labor re-
lations law, but it's record so far is decidedly
Encouraging.
A "box score of labor disputes for the
first two months of the laws operation
shows:

Strikes and lockouts (now settled)
| In progress of Cancellation 81

One might expect from such a record
that opposition to the act would be almost
extinct with both sides rejoicing but the
labor question is too thoroughly mixed with
politics. So long as a labor relations bill
which unions fought is on the books the is
sue cannot be allowed to die, and so long as
some provisions actively sought by the other
side are not in the law, there will be agita-
ton for amendments
One might expect the middle row to be
the common course in a democracy but act

eminent when one side or the other is not
off side," as we say in football.

NOTICEABLE THING ABOUT M AND

gress, is the lack, among witnesses, of any
real concern about what happens to the COM
pany ITSELF
Minneapolis, for instance, wants to re-
tain its shops although it is claimed saw
ing could be made by Capitalization of repair
work at another point. Other towns might
concede the uselessness of maintaining serv-
ice on certain South Dakota lines, but not
Aberdeen and Viola, towns which would be
adversely affected. Along this part of that
branch, ACKNOWLEDGMENT or division might be
acceptable if there was trustworthy prom
