Marriage Easy in Poland
Young lovers In parts of Poland
have adopted a motto of “marriage

The new ceremony consists merely of
the swearing of an “oath” before a
local Communist worker, who then
declares the marriage valid. An

tendencies publishes the names of
those thus united.

RECORDS SHOW
1931 UNUSUAL
Howard, S. D., Man Keeps
Tab on Weather for
41 Years
Howard, S. D. — (Special) —
King Vosburg has kept a record of
the precipitation in Miner county
since 1891. His records show that
during this period of 41 years only
three other years have been drier
than 1931. The driest years recorded
were 1925 with 13.64 inches, 1907
with 13.77 inches, 1894 with 14.18
inches, and 1931 with 15.78 inches
of precipitation. During the last
. five months of 1931, 9.11 inches of
moisture fell which shows that very
| little fell during the growing sea
son.
The wettiest years in this period
were 1908 with 31.79 inches; 1903
with 31.06 inches, and 1914 with
19.06 inches of moisture. The av
erage precipitation over this pe
riod was 21.564 inches.
The records also show that 1.53
Inches fell in December, 1931, which
was the wettest December since
1902 when two inches fell.
With this generous amount of
moisture in the ground and a deep
covering of snow at the present time,
the farmers in this territory are op
timistic as to the prospects of a
good crop in 1932.
GREAT FORESTS AND
LUMBERJACKS DISAPPEAR
Duluth, Minn.—(AP)—The head
of the Lakes and cities on the iron
range remain the home for most of
the lumberjacks in the northwest,
but most of their work is not in the
woods, it is revealed in a report
here by Maj. P. C. Bullard, United
States district engineer.
Northern Minnesota and upper
Wisconsin, in years past was
■swarmed with thousands of lumber
jacks who each fall went into the
woods not to return until spring
with their “pockets filled with gold”
after a winter of work at the sev
eral saw mills.
The saw mills hummed with ac
tivity and the wide area of for
ests was cleared after 20 years of
activity in the lumber industry. The
lumber industry was one of north
ern Minnesota's largest, ranking
next to iron ore.
In the last decade or so, however,
the lumberjack has been finding
jobs in the woods more difficult to
find and they turned to other occu
pations, although the offerings were
reported light.
Millions of board feet of lumber
have been shipped from the Head
of the Lakes in previous years, with
many seasons the shipments total
ing more than 400,000,000. In recent
years, however, only a small amount
of lumber is sent from the Twin
Ports and in 1931 the lowest amount
since the industry was started in
1904 was sent from here.
The total shipment for 1931 is
listed at 20,000 board feet. Th 1906
when the industry was ranked at its
peak, the shipments totaled 446,950,
000 board feet.
Most of the mills have closed. The
Rainy Lake Lumber company, with
headquarters at Virginia, has been
closed for the last few years. This
company was considered the largest
in the world. Cusson, the picturesque

BUSINESS MEN* BUY
FARMS NEAR ALTON
Alton, la. — (Special) — With
the price of farm land in this sec

business men of the towns are real

Two transactions ^recently com
pleted were the sale of the W. P.
Gerst dairy, 80 acres to W. P. Wilt
gen, carpenter, who has moved onto
the farm and will farm it the com
ing year in connection with his car- j

The other transaction was a deal
whereby F. D. Allen, barber, became
the owner of the John Beckman
farm east of Paullina. He will not
occupy the farm but will keep it as

barber business here.

“The use of an airplane, as I sea

"We expect the areas which now

Mother of 7—Still Young
THE woman who gives her
organs the right stimulant
need not worry about growing old.
Her system doesn’t stagnate; her
face doesn’t age. She has the health
and “pep” that come from a lively
liver and strong, active bowels.
When you’re sluggish and the
Sstem needs help, don’t take a lot
“patent medicines.” There’s a
famous doctor’s prescription for
just such cases, and every druggist
keeps this standard preparation. It
is made from fresh laxative herbs,
active senna, and pure pepsin. Just
ask for Dr. Caldwell’s syrup pepsin.
Take a little every day or so, until
every organ in your body feels the
big improvement.
The next time you have a bilious
headache, or feel all bound-up, take
this delicious syrup instead of the
usual cathartic. You’ll be rid of all
that poisonous waste, and you
haven’t weakened the bowels.You’ll
have a better appetite, and feel
better in cveiy way. The constant
use of cathartics is often the cause of
a sallow complexion and lines in the
face. And so unnecessary!
Would you like to break yourself
of the cathartic habit? At the same
time budding health and vigor that
protects you from frequent sick
spells, headaches, and colds? Get a
big bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s syrup
pepsin today. Use often enough to
avoid those attacks of constipation.
When you feel weak and run-down
or a coated tongue or bad breath
warns you the bowels need to be
stimulated. Give it to children
instead of strong laxatives that sap
their strength. It isn’t expensive.
Voices From the Past
Phonographic preservation has not

The lady who recorded Cardinal Man

how, after she had explained the

ecclesiastic said to her: "Ah, young
lady, if you had lived a century ago
you would have been burned for a
