to the bitter excitement of the pres
ent Japanese invasion, a period of
great social change and adjust
ments in the lives of a teeming
humanity.
The story is that of two daugh-
ters of Peking upper middle-class
family, the gay, whimsical, soft
voiced Mulan, and the bright-eyed
practical, more wonanly Mochow.
Around these two chief characters
| is depicted the intimate family life
of an old official family. Three
sons and three strikingly contrast
ed daughters-in-law offer cross
section of the bewildering modern
generation of China. Revealing
with tenderness and humor their
conflicts and jealousies, their loves
and sorrows, the story develops as
its theme the dissolution of family
discipline and the conflict of the
individual and the family.
The author makes no plea for
the old ways or for the new. Tell
ing of Chinese people as he has
known them, he presents modern
China in flesh and blood, carrying
step further the Interpretation
given in sly and wry comments in
his previous books. This is above
all tale of people.
AS the author himself says in his
preface, 1T is a story of how men
and women in the contemporary
era grow up and learn to live with
one another, how they love and
hate and quarrel and forgive and
suffer and enjoy, how certain hab-
it's of living and ways of thinking
are formed, and how, above all,
they adjust themselves to the cir
cumstances in this earthly life
where men strive but the gods
rule"

Human Kindness, Common Sense, Equality

Gov. Harold stassen, in defending Mnnesotas
new homestead lien law in talk recently made to
the 30th annual convention of Minnesota County
Commissioners, said: "In instances where the chill
dren have done lot for their folks paid taxes kept
up the property did their utmost to aid their par
ents, in justice to them you waive liens" The
governor remarked that commissioners should know
when to apply the lien against homesteads of de-
ceased pensioners and when to waive it. This, of
course throws a new light the lien law, and we
believe, opens up new avenue for favoritism and
wire pulling in county politics. Laws passed for the
social welfare Of people should be administered
with human kindness it is true, but above all with
common sense and equality.
Again a reward has been set for the and
honor that parents entitled to from their chill
dren, and the Governors statement should do a lot
to make the declining years of the aged happier
and more secure. Our governor will have to con-
tnue to defend the homestead lien law against the
opposition, but if he make it function according
to his announcement, without favoritism politics.
those who oppose the law will be butting their heads
against a stone wall.
We liked the Governors attitude and the sim
cerity of his announcement to the county commits
soner5 need not be questioned If the commissioners
of Minnesota follow the announcement to the letter
they will lend new incentive to obey the filia
commandment Honor Thy Father and Mother"

Thanks, Friend Wesley

Most times things that newspapers do are takel
for granted, hence, when someone expresses ap
probation for that which consider duty, 81
to say, walk in the clouds The following lette
hearty thanks to the sender. former superintendent
of Sauk Centre schools Wesley Kohl:
Mr.. Eddie Rattle, Editor,
Sauk Centre Minnesota.
Dear Eddie:
didn't have time before left to express
my appreciation to you and Mike Fleming of
what value your Herald meant to me while
conducting the schools in Sauk Centre.
AS have always told you that you have
a good small city newspaper and one that
took its business of cooperating with the
schools very seriously There nothing
within reason that I asked for that you
didn't grant. All the years you gave column
after column to the exact Interpretation of
school matters and news, you did your part
to build up public confidence in the school
system. Exact newspaper publicity is at
premium these days.
There may be some who don't appreciate
the effort put forth by your paper for the
betterment of community affairs but you
have been down in the front pitching all
the time.
Educationally have felt that there is
something important If not more import
ant than just mere academic achievement
and that is good citizenship, self-respect and
honor. And In this closing sentence Of ap-
probation want to say that your paper has
concided with this philosophy Of mine and
has always been appreciated.
My best regards to Mike and the rest
Of the Herald gang.

An American Speaks

Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg, candidate for the
nomination for President by the Republican party,
made of the most thoroughly American talks
have heard in a long time. Although he found
fault with the New Deal, he recommended that the
good of it be kept; that of it be changed and
the rest of it be discarded to the limbo of impractical
legislation
The Senator asked for the "stop-sgn" reck-
less governmental spending, and he asked for the
"go-sign" for business that the unemployed may
be profitably employed and that wealth
might be created.
Quit all social schemes and subsidies he
said. until pay for those in existence. Main
tain reasonable relief, but unity it under state
sponsibity, with lump sum appropriations from the
Federal treasury, and eliminate costly overlapping
in Federal, state and local service and give home
rule the preference wherever possible
Stay out of war by avoiding entangng foreign
contracts and rescind recognition of Russia. Stop
buying gold from Russia at $35 an ounce, which
Russia produces for $11 ounce and puts the pro-
fit into execrable war upon Scandinavia.
Maintain soil conservation, pay premiums for
crops of which the United States has not enough
and place tariffs cost of production basis for
both farm and industrial products.
These and many other suggestions for change
to responsible government made by the able
statesman who is leading in the popularity among
Republicans of the nation.
Senator Vandenberg has thoroughly American
program one which will function under the Con-
stitution and which will allow to maintain
a democracy of free men in free nation. His is
the voice of a public servant not dictator-the
voice of one who wishes to maintain and perpetuate
that government held together by Abraham Lincoln
many years ago.
