Use OiI-Free Mop on Wax

Hardwood floors which are. wax
coated should be cleaned with a
mop or soft brush which is free of
oil, as oil has a tendency to soften
wax. A cloth wrung from warm,
soapy water should suffice to re-
move the surface dirt. There are
certain cleaners which are recon-
mended for removing wax and for
removing spots or discolorations
from floors before refinishing. A
rag moistened with turpentine or
mineral spirits also will remove
wax.

Mayor Wants
Full Count
OF Residents
COLLEGIANS URGED TO
GIVE HOME ADDRESS
TO CENSUS TAKER

"We want a true and fair pic
ture of Redwood Falls popula-
tion," Mayor ]. c. Budik said this
morning in urging the co-opera-
ton of every resident here with
census enumerators who begin
the first official count of the city

relatives or friends sick in hos
pitfalls outside the city, those who
know of Redwood Falls residents
who will be visiting out of town
while the census is taken-are
urged to notify them to give Red
wood Falls as their addresses
when the enumerators come
around.
"We want every nose counted
and there will be hundreds of
noses out of Redwood Falls when
the census is taken," Mayor Bu-
dix explained.
He pointed out that persons
here who have children away at
school, for instance, cannot get
them into the record here. But
those children can tell enumerat-
ors who come to their sorority,
fraternity or rooming houses that
they live in Redwood Falls and
records on them will be sent here
and credited to the city. :
The mayor has placed the Red
wood Falls police department at
the disposal of census enumerat-
ors when they take the transient
census here April 8 starting at 4
p. m. and continuing through the
night.
Officers will show enumerators
around in their check of hotels,
tourist camps, the Jail, county
home, hospitals, rooming houses
and similar institutions, as well
as hobo jungles and other places
frequented by transients.
If any Redwood Falls resident,
rooming in another persons
house, for example, plans to be
out of town while the census is
taken, he is asked to leave his
name and address with May
or Budik, the postoffice, Chief
c. E. Johnson of the police depart
ment or to call the census office,
number 402.

FIRED ON IN MILL
CITY SUNDAY NIGHT

Two Redwood Falls residents,
Richard Soltau and Mrs. Phebe

les with unusual interest this
week and last.
Mr.. Soltau, employee of the
Redwood Falls Motor company, is

George Soltau who is Richards
father. He now lives in Danube.
The crusading pastor had put
his car into the garage at the rear
of his Minneapolis home when
black car drove into the alley, oc-
cupants fired three shots which
failed to hit him and the machine
sped away.
Soltau led gambling raids on
several night spots just before
New Years and turned over to
the grand jury panel at that time
evidence on houses of prostitu-
ton.
Raids by deputy sheriffs later,
on these houses led to many ar
rests of keepers, inmates and pa
irons. As the result of the raids
information came to the grand
jury which it used to indict AL
Palmersten and Charles Grune-
wald, morals squad heads, for
bribery and neglect of duty, and
the indictment of David Weisman,
alleged go-between between poll
ice and the keeper of house of
i'll fame.
Mrs. Fuller's niece, Mrs. G.. S.
Stephens, organist at Central
Park Methodist church in st.
Paul, played the instrument as
more than 500 persons were driv-
en- from the structure by fire Fri
day night.
When he learned that flames
were coming from the basement.
Or. Ernest Parish, pastor, asked |
Mrs. Stephens to play a hymn,
then he directed the congregation |
to leave. As the throng walked
out calmly. Mrs. Stephens played,
1Am I A Soldier of the Crosse"
Flames came through the floor
ing around the organ as she play
ed the piece and she left the |
church through thick smoke.
