Although most Bethesda families
have been absorbed in the hurry Of
Christmas preparations and holiday
week activities of a varied sort, not
even these advertisements have been
SUFFICIENT to bring informal social
affairs to standstill.

or parties at which old friends have
an opportunity to renew their con-
facts with each other.
One of these gatherings will be
given next Sunday, when Mr.. and

End OF An Era

An era of major league domination
by baseball club came to an abrupt
ending Monday afternoon when the
New York Yankees were defeated
for the fourth straight time by an
irrepressible National League entry,
the St. Louis Cardinals. Holding the
baseball spotlight the past decade
with the thunder of their big bats,
excellent pitching and superb field
ing, the highly-favored New York
ers faded rapidly in the 1912 World
Series before fast, young club that
would not admit defeat. The law of
averages had caught up with the
Yanks.
But another era also draws to a
close. The young stars of the dia-
mond are putting aside their bats to
take up the weapons of war. Many
have left or will be leaving the
friendly battles of the baseball parks
to become engaged in bitter struggles
on worldwide battle ground.
And the cream of the nations
youth, the athletes of a sports-minded
nation, are being called upon to help
suppress forces reared in an theology
that the state comes first and that
the sword is supreme. Fighting back
from the disastrous first few innings
American youth is forging ahead in
an effort to tie up the score and
finally crash through to win. The
Axis powers long have been con-
trolling the destinies of men and ma
tons but the law of averages will
some day overtake them too in the
form of another spirited young ad-
versary and the United Nations will
be on top when the final out is made.

Health Ward
Information furnished by Pine County
Nursing Service

The Pine County Advisory board,
at its regular monthly meeting, ac-
copied the resignation of Miss Laura
Nelson. Miss Nelson, who has served
nearly two years, has accepted a
similar position in Polk County, Wis.
Miss Mildred Bickmann, who is
completing her work at the Univer-
sity of Minnesota, was elected to fill
the vacancy. Miss Bickmann just
completed her student field work in
Pine county under Miss Nelson's
supervision and has made acquaint-
ances and friends here.
The financing of the county nurse,
service so essential to the wartime
health and physical fitness program,
must be financed through the assist
ance of local service organizations
and through local school districts.
These agencies are urged to send
their contributions to finance the
nursing service to Mrs. G. G. AJAX
hus, secretary.
A letter urging this cooperation is
being mailed to all the clerks of the
school districts in Pine county.

TO GET 1T OVER WITH
Pease, MINI.
Editor ASkov American:

Editor Askov American:
1t hurts to be seven years too old
to help Henry Kaiser and three years
to old to help Uncle Sam.
Well, yes, 1 raise more potatoes,
rutabagas, pork, beef, milk and eggs
than l need for myself
But why don't they consider me
too old to serve in other occupa-
tons?
1t hurts me also that boys of 10
years old are called upon to serve
their country. Why not draft us old
fellows to raise chickens, hogs, col
lect scrap iron, or sell stamps and
war bonds? If we are able to do our
own shopping we should be consid-
cred able to do some selling.
1 do not ask for charity but hate
to be considered a liability in times
of calamities. To get it all over with
calls for scrap iron. I am offering
myself free of charge, upon request
of anybody here in the town of Dell
Grove to pick his yard clean of scrap
iron, and notify scrap dealer to
buy the scrap and pay the owner.
After the scrap iron is all in we
then can start to collect scrap money
that lies idle in cover and safes.
Throw the safe and the gold and
silver medals, crosses and school bells
and all other ornaments into the
melting pot, sacrificing Mammon to
fight Moloch. What good does it do
to be decorated slave? If life and
liberty can be secured by sacrificing
the things that lie around or boarded
away out of use we certainly get it
at bargain price.
Paper money can take the place
of silver and gold coin, and a Sc
whistle can serve as a Schoolbell

along without newspaper column

can't get along without the farmer.
In fact, the hoy" on the firing line,
the farmer and the industrial worker
constitute the invincible trinity which
will eventually pull Uncle Sam out
of the Slough of Despond.
So LABOR refuses to add to the
torrent of abuse which has been roll
ing over the farmer. We believe he
is entitled to fair return on his
labor. That is what we have asked
for other workers. We do not be-
lieve the farmer should be satisfied
with less.

forces and, it appears, American
bombers, have forced the japanese
to retreat from point about 80 miles
from Port Moresby. At this point
the japanese had remained inert for
more than couple of weeks. Now
they have been chased away from it
and are, consequently, farther from
Port Moresby than they had been
for some time. That means, too,
that they are that much farther from
their probable goal, Australia.
At the far northern end of the
Pacific the Americans have been
doing some effective fighting lately
in their effort to make the japanese
get out of the Aleutian islands.
In this, they have not yet sue
ceeded, but, as in the southwest
Pacific, the Americans have sunk
a number of enemy vessels and,
generally, made the stay of the
Japanese an anything but COM
Portable one.
In Washington the hope is ex-
pressed that in the Aleutians and
in the Solomons, Americans will soon
be able to eliminate the enemy, and
among congress members there is
audible some Impotence that it has
not already been done But then
it isn't as easy as it may look-at a
far distance
Willkie in China.
There is not much actual war
news from the Chinese-Japanese
front, but at Chungking all atten-
ton seems to have been conferred
for some days on the presence of
Wendell Willkie, itinerant represent
tative of the President of the United
States. One reason for that is that
it is just about the first time that a
high-placed representative of gov
ernments of the other United Ma
tons has visited the capital of China
during the present war. The visit
may-we don't know but it may
lead to a useful exchange of views,
perhaps, to new commitments.

Herewith follows the text of
telegram sent to Senator Henrik
Shipstead by Hjalmar Petersen:
No production for successful prose-
cution of the war is more important
than food. The nation is facing a
food shortage so acute that rationing
apparently will be necessary.
Farmers sons are in military serv-
ice and there is serious labor
shortage on the farms. Assisted by
their wives and daughters, our farm
ers are working long hours to carry
on here at home. The farmer is a
vitality important war worker.
In order to assure an adequate food
supply for both military and civilian
needs it is essential to guarantee our
farmers parity prices. The farmers
have never had real parity posi-
ton, and it is time they got it. The
people of Minnesota, am sure, over
whelmingly support your efforts to
secure such parity prices through
legislation and condemn the efforts
of Gov. Stassen's Senate Appointee
to sell our farmers down the river.

NEWS REVIEW
Continued from Page ~
Farther South.


Farther south in Africa, events
may be on the march soon, too
that is, around Dakar where there is
some reason to suspect plans of a
Nazi attack in a not distant future
The Nazi military authorities
have been trying to persuade the
government of unOc cupied
France at Vichy to make COM
mon cause with them, and for
protesting against this, former
French Premier Edouard HerriOt
has been taken into custody by
the Vichy people; his viewpoint
is that Vichy has no authority to
commit the people of France to
war against their real friends,
that is, the United Nations.
The Vichy authorities tried to
make Herriot sign statement to the
effect that he would not leave France,
and when he Indignantly refused to
commit himself to that extent, he
was locked up in his home, with a
heavy police guard around.
War in the Pacific.
AS usual, bulletins from the war
fare in the south and the north Paci-
fic have been few and far between,
and they have not been sufficiently
clear to give a complete picture of
the situation. 1t does seem rather
certain that the American forces in
the Solomon Islands are doing their
utmost to keep off the japanese, but
there is no official report denying
the fact that the enemy is still there,
although his progress has been
checked.
1t has so, particularly, in the island
of New Guinea where the Australian

people make their first fatal mis-
take.
Even here in Minnesota there has
been a campaign going on for some
time discrediting the judgment of
the people as a whole. High pres
sure political propaganda has been
introduced into the state telling the
people how to vote. While this failed,
it may succeed another time, unless
there is strong revolt against these
methods and men, who fail to under
stand that after all representative
government means just that and
nothing else. No democracy can pos
sibly endure where the great major
ity of the people are propertyless
and where their natural judgment is
questioned in matters vital to their
welfare.
