Young Officers Have
Had Much Experience

''Down to earth" is the
phrase Jesse Olson, president
of The State Bank of Red
wood Falls, uses in describing
the policies of his institution.
eve are down to earth in
our dealings and administra-
tion," he says, Because we
know farmers, who represent
a large percentage of our
patrons and because we talk
the farmers language.
"Our policy is to get our
feet on the ground before
starting to go places" he add
ed.
Mr.. Olson and Richard Root,
cashier of the bank, have put
the institution on a firm,
earthly footing in a brief II
months of operation.
The State bank opened it's
doors August II, 1887. The
first published statement of
it's resources, made October
IL of that year, showed $685.
584.34 in resources.
Hit 100000 Mark
By December 81, 1887, they
had reached $124,944.23.
Last March 81 resources had
grown to $155,000. By Sep
TENDER %, they were listed at
$4,000 and at the time of
the federal bank call Deem
Der 81, a sworn statement
gave $4,000 as resources.
Monday night when books
were closed 100000 was the
figure.
Speaking of closing the
books every day, Mr.. Olson
and Mr.. Root take exception
to the expression bankers
hours" commonly used to de-
note brief periods of work.
People think that, since
we close at 8 p. M, we are
through working. Really
that's when our work begins.
We must balance the cash,
post all accounts and close the
books every day after bust
ness hours"
Even if they haven't "bank-
ers hours" both men have
put in plenty of hours in the
banking business.
Mr.. Root has never had a
job outside of a bank. His

first job was with a financial
institution and his service re-
cord includes work in the
Farmers and Merchants bank
of Donnelly; the Farmers
State bank of Clontarf and
the Hancock State Bank,
from which he came to Red
wood Falls.
Was Bookkeeper
Mr.. Olson's career, although
more varied, includes much
banking experience. ..,.
He began work as book
keeper in Aune and Thune's
store here. He went to the
Belview bank for four years,
then returned here to handle
insurance for the Ward and
Stanton agency.
After working in a bank at
Dawson from 1925 to 1880, he
became associated with the
state banking department as
an examiner and held that
position until he returned
here.
Neither has had a particul-
arly exciting career. Neither
worked in a bank which was
robbed or which closed while
they were employees.
Donald Kohls, the only 9TH
err employee in the place, is
just beginning his banking
career.
Sponsor Contest
Their service to the COM
munlty includes SpOnSOrShlp
of an annual Christmas deco
rations contest for homes and
business places.
What they regard as their
greatest assest is represented
by the business of their
books. They have approx
mately S108,000 loaned in
Redwood Falls and it's imme-
date territory.
The bank is equipped with
full banking facilities, includ-
ing the most up-to-date burg
lar-proof fixtures.
Besides establishing the
bank permanently they have
established their families
here permanently. Mr.. Root
has recently built a home and
Mr.. Olson has purchased one.

It appears reaonably certain that
the present pension law will be

Would Liberalize Labor Board
What promises to be the most
bitterly fought battle of this Con-
gress was launched last Thursday
when Senator Burke (D-Neb.) in
troduced in the Senate a compre-
hensive program for revision of
the Wagner Labor Relations Act.
Senator Burke would curtail the
broad powers Of the Board under
which 1t acts as complainant, in
vestigator, prosecutor and Judge
by permitting respondents to petit
ton removal of hearings to the
local u. s. District Courts. The
bill also provides for the reorgan-
ization of the Board with one re-
preventative each from employees,
employers and the general public
instead of employers would have
the right to petition for election.
There is a general feeling down
here that the Wagner Act, while
laudibe in its aims, has been
operated almost wholly for the
benefit of the c. I. o. The A. F..
Of L. is strong in its demands for
the changes contained in the
Burke bill and so are many en-
ployees and employers.

caribou are known to persist.
The Minnesota caribou herd was
augmented last year, by the impor-
tation from Canada Of nine ami
mails that are now in the Red
Lake Game Refuge.
In the national survey, deer were
the most numerous, with nearly
four and a half of the five million
total for all big game species.
Michigan ranked first in deer pop
ulation with $4,000 and $4,000 of
big game. Pennsylvania was Sec
ond and California third.
It is interesting to note that
while the Minnesota Department
of Conservation figures, released
last fall, were 100000 deer, the
Biological Survey figure is $4,000
higher.
The survey indicates that there
has been a steady improvement in
big game conditions, particularly
in Eastern and Central states
since 1907. At that time, deer in
Pennsylvania, for instance, were
practically extinct, but restoration
activities have brought back the
herd in that state.

THREE HARBOURS
Rv Macon
BIZ Bernice FinneSGn

In this rich, full-blooded and
authentic chronicle, the author re-
veals a fascinating phase of the
American Revolution which has
been ignored until now. The I'M
folding of this colorful tale has a
sense of vivid reality which
sweeps the reader along from the
first page to the last.
Three Harbours, though not a
sea story, depicts the problems Of
the maritime peoples of Colonial
America during that period just
prior to and during the early
stages of the Revolution (1774-
1775D Mr.. Mason does this quite
as dramatically and authoritatively
as Kenneth Roberts and Walter
Edmonds portray the hazards of
the frontier.
Planters, patriots, traders, sea
captains, soldiers, statesmen, ship
builders. toughs and trollops move
across the stage of Three Harbours
amid an atmosphere redolent of
tobacco fields, of burnt gunpowder,
of spices, and the tropical perfume
of Bermuda nights.
The leading characters are
based on historical prototypes are
as varied as they are unforgettable.
They pulse with life against the
colorful background Mr.. Mason
has chosen. These people seem so
real it is hard to remember that
they lived in another century.
Among them are the following:
Rob Ashton, the young Virginian
shipping merchant who attempts
to stay neutral while struggling to
recoup the fortunes of Ashton and
Co., wasted by David, his charm
ing but improvident brother. Peggy,
Rob's seventeen year old bride,
gallantly, if futilely, joins him in
facing disasters and dangers
brought by the rising tide of
Patriot and Tory dissension.
Katie Tryon, bound girl and il
legitimate child, is perhaps the
most appealing of the characters.
Though of necessity she grants
her favors to many, she struggles
cheerfully in the face of class
cruelty to gain security and hap
piness. Colonel Fortescue. abrupt
and pleasure-loving veteran Of
Fontenoy and India, depicts those
sterling qualities which built the
British Empire. Stephen Parish,
doughty Yankee sea captain, is a
graphic parsonage; hard hit, he
was sturdily loyal to his Virginian
employers. Unforgettable Is young
Lady Andrea Granville who, hav-
ing gambled away her fortune in
England, courageously seeks new
life and finds love in Bermuda.
F. Van Wyck Mason's distin-
guished style and use of authentic
history places this novel among
outstanding interpretations of
early American endeavor.
