ROBERTS, Meterologist. WON'T STAY, HITCHED. Says a reader of our recent remarks on standardization: “You can stand- ardize all products of human mind or energy, but you cannot standardize the human himself.” Sure and ‘tis a good thing ‘tis so. Humanity progresses because the hu- man animal cannot be tied, standard- ized, bound by rule, rote or measure. ‘Human products are material. Hu- manity is spiritual. The human com- bat against standardization has meant progress. Where climatic change, or food shortage, or new environment has broken into the standardization of beast, fowl or vegetation it has meant ® weakening, as a rule, the diminish- ing of power to lead the natural life. Could man have been standardized, he would still be climbing trees for acorns, nuts and other things, instead of 40-story buildings for 18 per cent fnterest and other things, OPPORTUNITY MUST BE SEEN. We read that a million dollars was the profit last year of a man who in- vented a simple little wheeled toy for children. The toy consists of only @ few pieces of wood so put together that the kiddies get all kinds of fun riding on it. t This man built the first of these toys for his own little boy. Soon all the boys in the block wanted one. Now this man’s success was simply the result of his ability to see an op- portunity. He saw that he had made somthing children would want—and $i you have something children want ‘you have a fortune. But probably nine-tenths of men would not have seen the opportunity this man saw. Perhaps hundreds of toys just as good are made by fathers —but they don’t see the big chance. Big ‘chances are ll aroitnd. There are a great many of them—aind it is safe to say that enly a few of the big chances are taken advantage of. ‘Is there a big chance staring you in the face? Take a sharp look and think hard. Maybe you'll see one and land big. An opportunity is no good unless you see it. A TIPUFROM WEBSTER. About a year ago a young fellow finished school and went to work, His father wrote him a congratu- latory note, saying that he was glad his son had “secured a position.” The son replied something like this: “Dear Dad: 1 was glad to get your letter, but you are all, wrong. | haven't ‘secured a posi- tion’ and I hope I never will. What | have done is to get a job, a chance to work. You are wrong on both accounts. If you don't believe it look it up in Webster. “‘Secured’ is to make safe be- yond hazard. I'm just getting- started on this job. I may get fired tomorrow. it safe beyond hazard. I never can unless I get to own the busi- ness. Even then there may be a fire or a slump in business or I may lose my mind. ‘*Position’ means a fixed place, and believe me, I don’t consider that I have a fixed place. Not if I can help it. 1 want to go ahead, get somewhere. I'd consider that I was a pretty poor stick to have reached my limit, a position, at 32. “T suppose you might say a traffic policeman on a little box ata street corner has a posi- tion—providing he has lost ambi- tion to become a captain and have a comfortable office with better pay. I suppose you might say that an old bookkeeper in a * dank had--@-position if -he had Kin ans seen a dozen youngsters move past him to better jobs, and he had decided that he never could become cashier or teller and was resigned to his fate. “But not I, daddy dear. Take a tip from Webster. I didn't ‘se- cure a position.’ I may get fired, but I'd rather get fired than se- cure a position when there's so much room ahead.” The boy was right. He may never get there, but’ he’s on his way. You get a job and stick to it as long as you see it isn't leading you to a posi- tion. Don’t worry about whether you are getting wages or salary. If you R} do the work the salary will take care of itself. That is, of course, if the job is one fot which you are adapted. A position is just as small as the man who fills it. A job is just as big as the man ‘makes it. PRACTICAL PATRIOTISM. Out in Los Angeles some good Am- ericans formed an organization called the “Practical Patriots League.” They adopted as their slogan but two lines which everyone of us might well take to heart: “Tf you can't be the Man behind the Gun, Be the Man behind the Man behind the Gun.” This doesn't mean slinking in soft ease behind the protection of the Man behind the Gun. It doesn’t mean letting George do it. It doesn’t mean slothful cowardice or criminal indif- ference. It means that you shall do a man’s part toward helping the Man behind the Gun. It means that you shall do all you can to make effective the Man behind the Gun. You can help by raising food. You can help by cutting out waste. You can help by increasing the output of munitions. You can help by keeping the indus- trial wheels going around. You can help by giving part of your money to the government so that the Man be- hind the Gun may be properly clothed and fed and armed and transported. You can help by supporting the Red Cross so that if the Man behind the Gun is wounded he will get all prop- er care. Don't be a slacker—help. SUMMONS. State of North:Dakota, county of Burleigh.

W.

The coming of Mr. Ames to Owatonna is of special importance to the people of the entire Northwest, owing to the fact that Mr. Ames is one of the big members of the Com- mittee on Public Safety in Minnesota and he is in every way qualified to speak on the present crisis which America faces in the war with Ger- many. Mr. Ames has only recently re- turned from Germany, where he had been on a trip before the acute crisis arose between the United States and Germany, and knows the actual con- dition which prevailed at that time in, Germany. He knows ‘of the military power and the organization that Ger- many has.and his address will teem with matters of vital importance,.to our people, as well as to the United Commercial Travelers. Since receiving the acceptance of Mr. Ames to make the address, the reception committee, of whign W. EF. Clarkson is chairman, has — secured the services of Miss Maude Johnson, music instructor of the public schools, to organize a large chorus choir of over 100 voices to sing at this open air meeting and also the tender of the Owatonna Civic orchestra to play the accompaniments and also several se- lections.

(By. Justice J. E. Robinson.) This week we have heard argu- ments in eight cases. Next week we Then, hear arguments in 20 cases. during the June month, we purpose to write up and sign up on every case argued and submitted during this year, Then the pending appeals will be reduced to about 50 cases. In the meantime, so that our judges may be good and keep steadily at work and not run off and leave me, as they sometimes do, ,[ must write a few Jeremiads. The purpose is not to scandalize the Court, but rather to confess and do penance so as to re move all causes for scandal. St. Paul writes: When I was a child I spoke as a child; 1 understood as a child, and I thought as a child; but when L became a man, I put away childish things. . Justice Walter Clark of North Car- olina. says:.. “These words of the great apostle apply to every calling and every profession under the sun, save only that of the law; but the de- mand for reform in legal procedure and of abuses incident to our prac: tices is insistent and it must be heed- ed.” ‘ It is certain that lawyers and judges are by no means a necessity. They are an expensive luxury, and unless they amend their ways of doing busi- ness, the people may conclude to put them all out of business just as they did the saloons. . In about half the cases which come to our Court there is. usually no ground for an honest difference of opinion and no ground for an appeal. ..The purpose of these letters is te make the demand for reform more and more insistent by exposing the wrongs and showing how to right them, The judges have been too much in the habit of covering up and con- cealing their own wrongs. .Certain it is: they. have not been proclaimed up- on the house-top, and it is a hopeful sign if judges think it a disgrace to let the people know how they steal their time and. leave their work un- done. (Of course, I write only of the judges in Minnesota and other states, and of the U. S. supreme court.) 1 know well that it is, and should be, an easy matter for every supreme court from the Atlantic to the Pacific to keep up with its work in a busi- nesslike manner and to decide every appeal within .0, or, at the most, v0 days after it is filed, and it is our pur- pose to show the judges in other states how this may be done. Thus far there is a radical defect in our system of procedure. We dquble oir work .by a system of nursing it. We Evening Letter’ J. E. Robinson , sit and hear-arguments day ‘after day for a month or more and decide the cases in one, two or three months, when the arguments are forgotten. Then we hear motions for review in every petty case and go allover the same old records, and the result is mental drudgery and a fearful waste of time. But soon, very soon, I hope we will learn how to better condi- tions and to adopt rules to reduce the procedure to a more pusinesslike sys- tem. Winston, Harper Fisher Co. V. Price. Rebinson, J.: This is an appeal from an order of the County Court of Wells County denying a motion to amerce the Sheriff for a failure to levy an execution on real property. in Kidder County. The ‘execution was for $1102. The sheriff refused to make the levy for the reason that the judgment had not. been docketed in his county. The sheriff was per- fectly right. The statute is that when an execution is against the property of a judgment debtor it may be issued to the sheriff of any counyt where the judgment is docketed. (Comp. Laws, Sec. 7715.) And when a judgment is rendered by a county court a certified transcript of the same may be filed in the office of the clerk of the district court and the judgment docketed therein, and from the time of docketing it becomes a judgment of the district court for the purpose of an execution and a lier upon real property owned by the judg- ment debtor. Then the clerk of Ane district court, may, give ,a certified traneeript oF the faggot 6s dock eted in anyother county, and no-ex- ecution shall issue out of the county court upon any judgment ‘upon which an abstract’ has been issued and filed in the district court. (Comp. Laws, Sec, 8943.) ‘The sheriff was clearly right. And this, for himself, the writer declares: That it is in no way proper for an attorney to, belittle. himself and the, Court. by taking an appeal, on puch 4,,Small matter: ‘and also that no stale jn, regard. to amercement of a sheriff, is of barbarous, and des- potic origin and it is contrary to the spirit of our constitution, and the amercement or fine should never be imposed except in cases of grave and willful fault, resulting jn graye in- jury.

The Maxwell Company expects to get. an entry list of 40,000 owners’ we for this second contest,.which is take place all over the United States, from June ¥¢ite 26/7 | Of the $50,000 in U. S. Liberty Bonds to be awarded by the Maxwell company, $25,000 worth of the bonds are to be awarded as owners’ prizes for mileage made on one gallon of gasoline. The dther $25,000 will go to the dealers as rewards for assisting the company to make the stupendous un- dertaking a success. The conception of: this big event originated with Walter E. Flanders, President and General Manager of the Maxwell Motor Company, Inc. It was directly inspired by results of the dealers‘ contest of May 23rd. While the contest of May 23rd was open to dealers only, the rules re- quired that none but privately owned cars in actual service could be used for the runs. In many parts of the United States and Canada rain fell on the contest day, and in many places rain’had fall- en for several days previously. De-- spite these conditions, the Maxwell Company feels, with such a showing, the company is warranted in defying the world to beat it. The 50 highest cars yet reported made a total of 1,983.6 miles on a total of 50 gallons of gasoline. This means an average of 39.67 miles per gallon. The full details, with the name of the silver and gold grand prize cup winner will be published in a few days. In the $50,000 U. S. Liberty Bond Owners’ Contest in June, women, as well as men, Maxwell owners will be eligible. The company hopes to make even a finer showing then than was made on May 23rd.
