Clearbrook, Oct. 18.—Clip the cou- -pons and hand them in, you know where. C. M. Bjorquist, the traveling rep- resentative of the -H-B, Tempering Process company, returned the first ipart of the week, after touring the northwestern part of the state in fav- .or of the firm. He reports good sales. Fred Peterson has rented the Mrs. Emma Lewis farm, north of the city. Mrs. C: M. Bjorquist is home again, .after a week’s visit with parents at Shevlin, this state. Jacob Nilson, one of the happy and prosperous farmers in Greenwood, has just threshed a $1,500 crop of .¢lover seed on 15 acres. It takes .Clearwater county soil to bring forth Have you a tract of this land yet? If not, you should lose no time in securing yourself a tract. *-the clover. Jens Gunning, Axel A. Anden_son and Bert Nelson are now driving “Dart” autos. The clover seed men, wholesalers, .of the east and northwest are making .Clearbrook one of the main points at which to gather the finest and strong- .emt germinating clover seed in the ‘Vrest! The color of our clover seed is . unsurpassed. Clearwater has just discovered it- -self, in:the-wonderful clover seed pro- ‘duced here. G_lad you were here, are you not? Mr. McReynolds, the ‘prominent ‘young farmer from Neving, called on friends here Tuesday. He served the «¢olors, -and is now a booster for the Melvin Johnson post of the Ameri- -can Legion, located at Clearbrook. Mr. and Mrs. John Berg are now happily domiciled in tha»l_lome they purchased from Aud Wennerstrom. Peter Larson and Mr. Warner, two well known and popular merchants at Neving, boarded the west bound passenger here Tuesday evening over the “Soo” for points west and Sollfl.l. Mr. Warner was accompanied by his wife and two children. Mr. Warner will make a trip to the cities and make valuable and large purchases for their fine store, while Mr. Larson, and his sister, Mrs. Warner, will make a trip to Thief River Falls, and at the same time visit with their mother, other relatives and friengis before returning. Mr. Larson will combine business with pleasure. He is also the postmaster at Neving, and a hustler and booster in general. Call upon your postmaster and get wise on how to order the new army goods now on sale throughout the United States direct by the govern- ment. Nothing but new stuff sent by Uncle Sam to you through the mail. Miss Victoria C. Young of Canby, this state, is the busy new saleslady ;al the hustling Nelson Quality store. Christ Bakken, one of the splendid salesmen at the Clearbrook Mercan- tile estabiishment is busy making his perparations for the final construc- tion of a fine new residence in the Highland Park addition. A. 'D. Marmorine, who resides north of town, the well known breed- er of Short Horn cattle, sold one of his splendid cows to Theo. Richard- son, of Clover township, for the neat sum of $400, the other day. Peter Steffenson, who sold his fine farm in Sinclajr township a short time ago, is taking it easy prospect- ing at Clearbrook of late. Pete has a’ location in view, and before long we hope to be in position to give you the prize. A bunch of our duck seekers load- ed into a big auto here Tuesday and theaded for the east country in quest ©f the sly ducks. They covered a Jarge section of Clearwater county, 2and the most of Beltrami county, and came home without a feather, ac- cording to reports, under the guid- . ing hands of Carl J. Haagenson, sec- _ohded by the true sport “Sim” cf the " Leader. They were a weary looking ‘bunch, but much wiser, with much respect for the ducks and their man- ner of keeping out of gun shot. /But, on the other hand, Henry A. Engel- ‘Wretson of the First National bank here, thotight that he would sHow these “sports” and proclaimed duck ékperts, -some game and what he réally could do on short order. There- fore about ten minutes to six o’clock 1 USE PLAIN WORDS Up-to-Date Young People Do Not Apply Soft Pedal. , Ancient Fashion of Vague Allusion to Things Is Passe and All Say What They Mean ' About Things. Americans used to come in for a good deal of teasing and “joshing” by Englishmen because of their tendency to show. an exaggerated delicacy in their choice of words., Especially was this squeamishness apparent among American women 40 or 50 years ago, when so far from ever speaking of their own legs they actually called the uprights of a square piano limbs and would have blushed with mortification if you had mentioned the chair legs. In England they said that an Ameri- can woman would never refer to the breast of a chicken, but referred to that portion of the bird as the bosom. Some who laughed at this over- niceness made the comment that ped- ple who condemned so many harmless words must have evil minds or they would see no harm in them. But really it did not indicate evil-mindedness. It was just a natural phase of the gen- eral oversqueamishness of the time. No wonder that the young woman who was cautioned never to show more than the tip of her toe beneath her voluminous hoopskirts and who couldn’t to save her life have taken a deep breath—no wonder she was overfastidious in the choice of her words. It was part of the fashion of the time. It really was bad form as manners were then framed to speak with even moderate frankness. But now the pendulum has swung far in the other direction, and it is the well-bred thing to avoid those circum- locutions used once to soften words of too great realisip.. It is considered a little old-tnshlol& or countrified now to say that yowkare going to retire when you migh%y simply that you are going to be Likewise we speak of bedrooms, whereas our careful grandmothers would never have used 8o frank a word.” They spoke of cham- bers or sleeping apartments, Sometime ago it was considered the well-bred thing to use circumlocutions when speaking of death. To a certain extent this is still done, but in general the progressive young American avoids such euphemisms as “pass beyond” and “pass away.” People more frequently used to say “if anything should hap- pen to me” or “in case I should be called beyond” when they mesant sim- ply “if T should die” which means exactly the same thing just as vividly and has. the advantage ef being strajght Anglo-Saxon. Old-fashioned folk used to use sof- “tened words' to indicate poverty. They spoke about being “in reduced circum- stances.” They weuld have consid- éred it rude to say a'friend was poor, though they might have sald that he was a “person of moderate wmeans.” If a woman found herself in 4 posi- tion where she had to earn her own living they said that “she had joined the army of toilers,” never that she had “gone to work.” People spoke of salaries, remunera- tions, compensations and honorariums, seldom of wages or pay. They spoke of positions and posts. Nowadays the thoroughly up-to-date young person speaks of her job.—Philadelphia In- quirer. i p. m. time, he jumped into his Henry Ford and in a short time refurned with a dozen or more of as fine ducks as you ever saw. But Henry is also wise, and therefore dvesn’t give away his ‘“plant,” which keep the boys on edge, while some of them imagine that he has gone into companionship with “Doc.” Shaw and Miller of Gon- vick. Whatever it may be, Henry at least brings home the ““bacon,” while the rest of them enjoy looking on. Wedding bells have rung and their pleasant and enchanting chimes have dlready died away, and .two of our young people have enjoyed married blessedness for the past two weeks, unknown to their many friends here, except for a handful of their intimate and close friends. At this time we are not going to give them away, but will let those interested solve the problem as best they can, for them- selves, or in groups if they feel that way. But when finally discovered in their neat little game played upon their friends here, you may rest as- sured that they will receive a hot re- ception when finally exposed. The weather is fine, but oh my, the potato got it in the neck just the same, for the fellow who neglected or overlooked digging them before the cold spell came on.
