Mr. 'Bonnstetter is not a stranger to the political arena, having been very active in all major issues for years. He is a man of high qualifications and character which is proven by the fact that he is held in high esteem by the people of his own community. He is a farmer well as by choice. by occupation as We know that he, in the past, has supported candidates of ability, who stood for clean government regardless of party and he now comes before the people asking for the same consideration.

Knowing Mr. Bonnstetter's temperament, ability and fighting propensities as we do, we can look for some plain statements of conditions as well a- an energetis campaign. Record. Some few weeks ago the Champion made the suggestion that there was a possibility of tax reduction in the enlargement of counties, eliminating duplication of officers, court houses, etc. Several of the newspapers in this locality fell in line with the idea, but it was left for the Swea City Herald and later the KoEsuth county Advance to sound sour notes.

The Herald! conceded some reduction might be made, 'but pointed out that the tendency toward centralization was already too strong. The Advance says that our counties are big enough as they are, and intimafed that there is a reasonable question as to whether or not people in the north end of Kossuth are not too remote for effective interest and control. We do not know that the Advance favons county division, but they certainly gave the proponents of such a proposition an opening wedge. To be agreeable, the Champion will fall in line with their suggestions. remain standing still is a sign stagnation.

We should do something.

is The Highway of Life During the silent and reflective part of our existence we find the road we must travel is short, even its greatest length considered, and the way is rocky at its best. We have never learned conclusively as to where that road started before we hit the trail; and know nothing conclusively as to whether it continues farther than we shall be permitted to walk in it, as to what is its length or how long we may be traveling it. All anyone knows, and there is no controversy or doubt, is that part of that highway of life each travels, one must travel in his own way. The guideposte are set along this highway, and they have been set there by other travelers, and any can read with reasonable sureness because the posts have been marked by mordant travail of human experience. There is a may of this road that serves to make travel a little less difficult.

The way shows the right turn at all the "forks," and it gives the rules of the road. Follow the guitleposts already set by humanity and follow the map, be guided by them in every step of your journey. Why worry over where you canie from or whither you may go, for you will land safely if you make your own load lighter and brighten the way for your fellowmeu. Clarksville Star.

Paper Hanging WALTER OLSON TITONKA, IOWA WODEN, IOWA IOE3C School Loyalty The success of a high school depends largely upon the loyalty and spirit of its student body. Nothing can stand in the way of a student body that determines to make its high school the first school In- the state.

The student who wants his high school to be the first in rank will uphold his high school by word of mouth and deed at all he will permit no slanderous remark concerning his high school; and the welfare and the success of the school will be his success. Each student should be dependable. Dependableness is one of the highest qualities that a boy or girl can possess; each student should help the other, and there should be no one who thinks himself better than the other. Loyalty by all the students in'their high school, makes their high school the best school in the state. So Titonka, lets make our high school the best school in the state.

We can do it! School Lunch May Be Hot The school bell rings again, an John and Mary trudge off each morning with the lunch pail. All summer, while they played at home, the ringing of the dinner bell meant hot meal. Now when they work will the ringing of the school bell mean a cold lunch, or will they have it supplemented with something hot prepared at school? With very little extra work one hot dish can be prepared at isdiool and served each day along with the cold lunch brought from home, according to home economics extension workers from Iowa State college. A week's menu might be some- tiling like this: Monday, hot cocoa- Tuesday, boiled rice and milk; Wednesday, potato soup; Thursday creamed cabbage; and Friday, apple tapioca pudding with cream. If the menu is planned ahead of time, mother can pack in the foods that go best with the clay's hot dish.

Milk and vegetables are included in almost every lunch because of their value as protective A superintendent of a rural consolidated school reported to the college that the number of underweight children in his school of 170 pupils was reduced from 54 to 25 per cent in one year by serving hot lunches, and that he expects to reduce it to 10 per cent in another half year. Many similar letters have come in from rural teachers and county superintendents. This is true, but it is equally true that the day of the local newspaper in here too. The metropolitan daily ciinnol take the place of the homo newspaper. The very fact that the big city daily must cover a broad Held forbids its becoming local in any sense, and it in in the local field where the homo newspaper dominates and where finds its true usefulness.

For, after all, it is the home new which Is most important to most us. We have the greatest Interes in the community in which we live and in the people who are our neigh bors and friends. And it is the loca newspaper which records the happen ings of the folks at home, and In ad clitlon fosters the civic pride and pro gresslve spirit of the community.

Being made from tough, dense railroad rail steel, Red Top posts will not batter or buckle when driven through the hardest of soil. One man can drive 200 to 300 a day. Get your fence building and repair work out of the way this fall while the weather is good. It not only takes the job out of your busy spring season but prevents your fence lines from becoming further run down this winter and gives you an extra season's use out of the wire.

It also avoids annoyances and losses next spring from stock breakinginto crops or onto the Highways. We carry Red Tops in various types and lengths from which you can select the post best suited to your needs. Come in and let us show you why the Red Top studded tee post prevents fencing from sagging, being rooted up or ridden down and why it gives you more years of service. The S. B.
