'That crazy music may be all right with some, but from our observations the two.or three times we were. there ‘to- see and hear them it was drawing a bunch of crazy nuts to.our dances that we are a.good deal better off without.” ~ Does it draw “erazy nuts or just ‘maturally make crazy muts? —The Majority Wins— Why Not?

Why do some men go to church to sleep when they would be much more comfortable sleeping at home? At that it is getting harder to sleep in church than it used to be. Between i the preacher and the choir, it is pret- ty hard to get any peace at all. —But Every Little Helps— Tip to the Wives, A Winnipeg married man was hit over the head with a piece “of gas pipe and his money taken from him. | Where there’s a will, there’s a way. —Better Make the Will— Getting Returns. Those Pemidji young ladies whose ‘pictures appeared in‘the Minneapolis ! Tribune recently are now reaping the harvest.

H. Sullivan, chair-l unit director, and W. H. Wescott were elected as committeemen. “A certified copy of the assess- ment rolls ‘and tax lists of Lakeville township for 1918 and 1920 were ob: tained from the county auditor,” says the final report made by Mr. Sayers | Ing to do you an injury and that you|angq forwarded to the Minnesota Farm Bureau federation. “This showed a an unpleasant and jump in ‘assessed value from $719,- 019 in 1918 to,$1,158,703, and earn- ed Lakeville the name of ‘The Mil- lion Dollar Baby Township.” The, county commissioners approved an application to the staje tax commis- sion for a 20 per cent reduction m assessed valuation. “We'think that for the first time in the state, this was granted in;blanket form for the whole township,” -Mr. Sayers’ report said. “While this blanket form did not adjust the ‘in- -equalities, it was preferred to a re-|. assessment which would be uncer- tain and would not- affect the first year.

The ‘state breakfast and -the ‘diplo- matic dinner are necessarjly more pre- l tentious, and “old-time eating,” served in the old-time way, if not altogether discountenanced, is so disguised as to make the satisfying plenty of the home table seem like a far-off dream. But, allowing for the proprieties of state banquets and the like, there is never a distinguished guest of them all vbut’ that has come up from plain “home raising,” and still remembers the dishes of old days as more to thank God-for than all the French refine- ments of later repasts. Fhe “homeliness” and heartiness of the former linger with them forever in much the same way as_they did with our old friend of the “Uiicle Re- mus” stories when, after a certain ‘notable’ ‘banquet, land he _seldom at- . tended such, he remarked: “Now I'm .going home to gm"'—m.lxmlu Consti- tution.

The story of the treasure reads-like romance. In the sixties Willlam Hol- land, véteran of the Crimean war, came to this country from England and set-- tled in the Pennsylvania coal fielfls;.ln 1872 he came to Kenney's creek and began the development; of a kiln.. - He bufit ‘a home here in 1885, where he resided until his death in 1918, He was"dh eccentric character, and none of his' family knew of+his habit of hiding money. He died suddenly of heart faflure. ~After . Holland's death the home passed-into the hands of William Nelson, superintendent of the. coal company, who began repairs and’ reconstruction.- The gold was found in différent jars at different times. its Out Sound. 5 Persons who “wish to concentrate their -attentfon upon studies, business matters or/what not, often find them- selves most annoyingly distracted by noises of one kind or another. Street traflic may be disturbing; the ecrying of a baby may irritate, or parhaps the yowling of cats on a back fence or the persistent tooting of a cornet in the neighborhood may induce exasper- ation. To obviate this sort of trouble, Ga- bino Janregul - o# Bridgeport, Conn., has devised what he calls the “ear si- lencer.” It is a frigme of light construction which may be fixed upon the head in such 'a way that two screws carrying soft rubber plugs on their ends are in- serted into the ears. When' this - adjustment has been made exactly right the two screws that carry the rubber plugs enter the wear- -er’s ears-horizontally and have only to be tightene] sufticientiy in order to fit snugly and. exclude all troublesome sounds. ‘Opossum a Pest in Australia, New Zealand has -a native species of opossum which wears a very beaun- tiful fur.

The-excellence of the ancient Writ ers does'not consist in a trick that can be learned, but in a -perfect adipta- tion of means to ends. The secret of the style of thie great Greek and Ro- man authors is that it is_the perfec- tion of good sense. In the first place, said John Stuart Mill, they never usé & word withont’'a meaning or a word ~which adds ‘nothing to. the meaning;" they ‘knew ‘what they. wanted :to 'say and tfieir whole: purpose ‘was to say it ‘with' the highest degree of ‘exact- ness' and- completeness - and bring it home to the mind with the greitest possible cledrness’and vividness. The ancients were- concise’ because of the extreme pains- they took with thelr epithets; -almost all moderns are pro- lix ‘becnuse they do not. The great anclents could express a thought: 50 perfectly. in a few words or sentences that they did not need to add any, more. = - WANTED_12 PRETTY GIRLS! to have their pictures taken for the feature page that the Sunday Duluth News-Tribune is running. State Editor Austin J. Carson writes me: of photos of the brainy or socially active gms “'m not 5o debirous T’d rather have them with regular features and fair to gaze upon.” Suggestions and nominations are we‘lcome and invited if made quickly. Only a dozen among Bemidji’s many beautiful maids can be used—but, perhaps you may help me discover ones “who will take -] the prettiest pmtures To have “something different,”; for.
