What Else To Consider?

HELLO FOLKS — Rudy had been walking past the Midtown National Bank the afternoon of the big hold-up, and they had summoned him as a witness. The D.A. was quizzing him in the hope that a lead might be found on the identity of the daring bank robbers, and was listening intently to Rudy's eye-witness account.

"So I'm walking past this bank, and these guys come running out a second or so after there's a great big explosion inside the bank. And they have bags of money in their hands, these guys, have, and they chuck these bags in a car what's at the curb, and they pile into that car and take off like sixty,"

"And you say you just stood there?"

"Yes sir."

"You didn't do a thing?"

"No sir."

"You didn't think anything about it?"

Rudy nodded emphatically. "Oh yes sir! I thought to myself. 'Well this is a helluva way to run a bank, and I'll be damned if I put any of my dough there.

Winter?! Don't mention it. I have had all of it I want and enough to last next year too.

YOU PROBABLY saw a feature in The Tribune a few days ago about some of our citizens studying, "Facts for the Future – A Growing Minnesota." As was mentioned, this course is sponsored by the extension service of the University of Minnesota and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture.

This is the kind of course that should be studied by every person in the state. In fact it must be understood by the majority of citizens if we are to have the kind of future in which we can all live and prosper.

We hope that in the near future someone will invite you to their home and with the interest of your neighbors you will all sit down and study and discuss the problems and the solutions for a growing and changing world.

This is a course that is bound to stimulate interest in anyone remotely interested in the future (and we had better all be). It is divided into four parts, to be discussed in four separate meetings.

Regardless of political or religious preferences we must all unite in such a worthy cause. In a democracy the general public is depended upon to keep the nation and it's various cultures keyed to a high standard. Without the public taking part and understanding these complex factors, the nation falters and we find ourselves thinking and doing the things that lead to the downfall of our society.

The extension service is to be congratulated for this fine effort to bring the facts to the public. It will take the co-operation of all of us to put it across, so let's get in there and pitch.
