OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY EASTER : Easter, commemoratiug the ‘resurrection 'of Christ, exemplifies. as nb’ 6fher Christian festival, that assurances of immortality which has been the hope of the world throughout the ages. Aside from its orthodox significance, is the happy material manifestations to be seen on every hand during the spring time 'on. this good, old green earth. Plant life, released from‘ its winter bondage, gives signs of renewed growth; of fresh, young vigor . Buds and birds ‘tell the story of that un- seen power that brings warmth and growth, after the dreary waste of the frost lacked months. Easter, rich with its promise of fruited tree and waving grain, is the signal for a new and closer relationship with our neighbors and the inspira- tions of its solemn celebration in our churches.gen- erates a finer feeling and fuller appreciation of the real significance of the Brotherhood of Man. There is an ecstasy and exhilaration about the Easter spirit which we may well cultivate. It is a time ‘when denominational debates and sectarian squabbles are entirely out of place. It is the mo- ment for us all to go about with a psalm of thanks- giving on our lips. In this year of woe, it is most appropriate that we get the utmost out of the spirit of Easter. It is well that we permit the warmth of the: spting sunshine to soak into our souls to such an-extent that we may get-back- into the safe refuge of our fathers, who kept the faith; who feared God and keépt his commandmer.ts ‘and who would dare- any- thing rather than break the law of the land. §———F§ A FEMALE MOSES Comes now a female Moses to'lead the Démo- crats out of the wilderness in the Third congression- al district, state of Minnesota, in this year of Rus- sion boots and- high -taxes. Mrs. William Cox Gault, at present mayor of the town of St. Peter (incidentally, home of the late Governor John A. Johnson), is the' citizen in question and she has set herself the task of retir- ing to private life, Charles Rq Davis, the present Republican congressman from that district. Mrs. Gault has given out some of the reasons why she expects to win and is not at all backward ok has been unanimously é trict Democrats in convénflun assembled and she has aligned some‘Republican support.

I had no thought -of becoming mayor of St. Peter. I was waited on by business men desirous of-a change. I ran against a man who had-served acceptably for several terms and was considered a strong man. I had no platform and was supported by men and women alike. “I consider the- outstanding features of my ad- ministration as mayor: “Public dances cleaned up. “Otdinance, licensing 'soft drink parlors. “Rémoval of screens from windows of soft- drink parlors. “I« was first asked by the women of my district to make the race for congress and now I am get- ting ‘support from both séxes. “I own a farm and my income is derived from it, and in 1920 I was a member of:the Nicollet County Farm: Bureau, serving on the board of directors. “Any legislation, therefore, that I have in mind naturally leans toward the betterment of agrcul- tural conditions. “I expect to be elect.” To say the least, Mrs. Gault®is original in hér line of attack and having confessed to' a thirty years in office, her courage must be unquestioned, as it takes a brave women to admit at least thirty years.

IN GOING THROUGH Motorists Got to Their Destination, but “Papa” Had Had a Let to Do Wlth ’It. A party of tourists was attempting to reach Pendleton on the Pendleton plke between Indianapolis and Pen- dletog when one.of those things that happentto motorists so frequently on country: ronds, od. It was the day after a heavy rain and the ground was thawing rapldly: vhu this party descended hub-ged . good, . old Hoosler: mud. Fh¥o trick of luck, ussisted by ‘elbow grease, the automobile was rescied from' the mud hole and the party about-faced to in- quire at the nearest farmhouse of an- other route to.Pendleton.

A look around disclosed that papa too was disheartened at the good luck of the motorists In getting out on thelr own power, because he had his teaos hitched up ready to Increase his miud- hole income for the week, "FOUND HIS PROBLEM SOLVED 8troke of Luck Said to Have' Corie' to Man' at Work on Idea: of Uf; sinkable Boat Among the “accldental” inventions may be mentioned the lifeboat, In theé course of a country stroll Willinm Wouldhave, the inventor of the self- righting lifeboat, came across a woman who asked his help in lifting a heavy vessel of water just drawn from the well.
