Chicago, IN., April time foreign trade prohlem. tlundreds of the mnation’s manu- facturers, representing every indus- try, gathered under the banner of the National Foreign Trade Council. They will plan to forge bridges and farm implements instead of guns; put wool into clothes for workers in- stead of uniforms for fighting men. it is the sixth annual lorelg!n 0 Chairman James A. Farrell, director of the United States Steel corpora- tion, its work is far more important trade convention. According then ‘any of the others. “Thé abrupt termination of the war in. Europe,” said Farrell, “has brought the United States suddenly face to face with certain questions 9t grave concern to American foreign ‘trade and industry. *Now, as never before, the United States, must rely upon foreign trade to make certain full employment of labor and to provide investment of capital; to stabilize industry and prevent disturbanee of domestic con- ditions; to insure the permanent re- ‘tention and operation of our nhew}|. merchant vessels ‘under the Ameri~ ean flag; to maintain prosperity among the American producers and #e forestall any rerogression amoug the high standards that have been achieved.” The purpofies of the conventlon are: To consider needs of American ofreign trade enterprises in the post- war emergency. To assist in dewising means and wmethods to gnable American foreign ttrade to meet the conditions which it faces. i To arouse American manufactur- ers, farmers, merchants, laborers, bankers, educators, railway and steamship men to the imperative necessity of bending their energies to the prompt solution of these prob- tems. Farrell said, the world war and America’s participation in it, had Dbettered the equipment of the Ameri- can people for foreign trade. He based this on construction of the new merchant marine, and recommended a sound national maritime policy as the key to success. Sessions will continue through to- morroew and Saturday. FORFEITS $25 BAIL. Pete Bohn, arrested yesterday on a charge of drunkenness and having @ bottle of whisky in his possession, fatled to appear for trial in munieci- pal court, thereby forfeiting his bail of $26. ~ NOONAN LETTER (€ontinued from Page One) ing for a vote of the people won’t get it through. The members from southern counties which have plenty of money are getting ready to use it for a door mat if Ed. brings it up to- worrow, and it is ,mt likely that he wlll allow it to be’'punished. The bill providing for a deputy clerk 2nd a deputy sheriff at Bau- dette is also in the refrigerator. There is one chance in a hundred that it may be passed under suspen- sion of the rules tomorrow, but with one hundred and thirty-one members ! the ' mem- | all trying to speak at once chances are against it. The bers are acting like a lot of college students, and there is a-continual uprour, and tomorow, which is the last day for the passiug of bills, both | houses will be about as peaceful as; W bass room factory when an explo-! sion occurs. Bill to Bring Riot. One of the big riots tomorrow will be oyer the game and fish bill. The house and scnate are getting along about as nicely as Jiggs and Maggie over ft, and several weetings have failed to produce harmony. honge tacked on an amendment pro- hibiting the use of dogs in hunting chicken, and the senate promptly eliminated it from the tournament, but manufuctured one of its own making a close season for chicken for three years, but allowing the shooting of partridge. The amend- ments which the house aimed at tish- ing at the Lake of the Woods were also shot to pieces by the senate, and the sudden appearance of Paul Mar- shalk of Warroad may have had something to do with it. The wrangle mentioned above won't aifect the fishery at Red Lake, as it is provided for in another bill which has already passed. A well deserved raise In salary for Carlos Avery, fish and game commissioner, is also not in danger. Minnesota will have two per cent beer if the federal amendment by any shance does not go into effect. The drys called the two per cent stuff a ¥ttle brother of booze and tried hard 10 put it over, but without success. About twenty important bills will oot be acted upon because of the epidemic of talk which has had the legislature by the ears for the last two months, and the governor is threatening an extra session, but the opinion is general and widespread that His Excellency is bluffing. Road Bills Pass. All the highway bills are safe, and Beltrami ought to get busy under the arovisions of the one allowing the gsounty board to bond for roads with- 9ut going to the expense of an elec- tion. If tbis letter is wobbly, it is be- cause, it is, being rattled off at two in the morning after a session of fourtéén hours in which we inherit- 3 ¢allouses on our ears from listen- ing to oratory from one hundred and thirtysofie' talk artists gathered from afl parts of the state. And we rhought we were coming down here <o grab off a soft job. Our next and last letter will ap- sear next week and will be in the =ature of a review of the session.

Mar- riage is a contract and should be set- tled on & business basls, When I want anything in business I go after it bluntly. I generally know what 1 want, too, @nd I want you.” She gfped, but presently regained her composure. “Fortunately,” she said, “T've had & iittle business tralning myself, so we can discuss this proposed contract properly and dispassionately.” “I'm glad to find you so sensible,” he told her. “I can give you nothing better than a second option,” she said. “What!” he exclaimed. “I might tell you that I am conscious of the honor you do me, but that I am already engaged,” she explained. ““That, with a suggestion that it Is very sudden, would be the sentimental way, but I will merely say that the first option is already taken.” “Then there is no hope?” “How foolish,” she cominented. “As a business man you ought to know that a first option does not necessarily mean a closed contract. If you don't want to take a chance on a second op- tion, say so; it you do, I'll drop you a line If I find myself on the matrimonial market again.” “That’s sort of cold-blooded,” complained. “That’s business,” she asserted. “I—I don’t believe I like business as well as I thought I did,” he remarked. “Very likely,” she returned. “I'd rather have a first option.” “A first option never has been and never will be secured by business methods."—Brooklyn Eagle. STAND ON SITE OF TRAGEDY Ancient Willow Trees Belleved to Be Near Scene of the Deportation of the Acadians. Whoever has read Longfellow's poem, “Evangeline,” will be interested he in visiting the land of Evangeline, the | Annapolis valley in Nova Scotia, Can- ada and the country about Wolfville, which is the center. Grand Pre, the little village which was the scene of the deportation of the Acadians’ in 1735, is only a short distance from Wolfville, but little is left of the vil- lage whereé the tragedy told of by the poet was enacted. The chief object of Interest in what was once Grand Pre, are the mammoth, gnarled anclent wil low trees, known as Evangeline's wil- lows, which stand, a conspicuous group, amid the fertile green meadows and serve as a windbreak. They show thelr age, these ancient trees, and were undoubtedly planted by the French Ca« nadians, for the Acadians invariably planted wlllows wherever they settled, and these trees are perpefual memo- #ials of them. Jeside the willows, ihere may be scen at the site of Grand P're the old well, portions of the foun- dations of the chure® of St. Charles, and some stones that mark the site of the priest's house. These willow trees are always visited by tourists, and al- though history does not exactly tally with the poet's account of the deporta- tions of the Acadians, and though there may he a division of opinion as to the justice of the act by the Knglish in the deportation of the Acadians, the old willows tell no tales, but stand, sturdy and strong, and are sightly landmarks still hale and vigorous. Poetical Inspiration. It s not about great events that great novels are written. 1s true of great poems. Not “the 15 declsive battles of the world,s but gich relatively unimportant ones as Balaklava, Jvry, Hohenlin®en and Blen- heim have inspired the poets. Wa- terlob was considered to be the greatest battle of modern times, but the lines Byron inserted in “Childe Harold” constitute the only memora- ble poem ever written about it. The only ballad of the Civil war, which became fixed forever in people’s minds, related to no great battle but to Stone- wall Jackson's march through the lit- tle town of Frederick. The great events are peaks in the mountain ranges of time, that leave fittle to the imagination. Literature thrives by the streams of legend and glory that run down from them and by the lanes and roads of emotion, aspiration, passion and endeavor that lead up to them. The side lights and side issues and everyday events make \iterature,.' s they make life itself. Insects in Amber. The proverbial “fly in amber” 18 strikingly exemplified In a collection of red amber from Burma recently pre- sented to the British museum by R. C. J. Swinhoe, of Mandalay. The amber s unusually rich in insects, including, according to Prof. T. D. A. Cockerell, who has examined the material, 31 new species, of which five are types of new genera. Most of these are found in a block of amber rather larger than a man's fist. This has been cut into slices about half an inch thick. Nearly every large order of insect is repre- sented with the exception of ants— Sclentific Amerlecan. The same | WHILE “MARKING; TIME” Knights of Columbus ‘and Other War Servics Organiza- tions on Job. Ag the big American army in France awalts the welcome order to embark on {ts homeward journey the problem of morale grows apace. To keep the boys tn even s semblance of content- ment while “marking time” either in the army of occupation in Germany or in eamps throughout France is the prerent big undertaking of all war serv- {ce organizations. It is now, as never before since America entered the war, that every effort Is being put forth by those who have been charged with the duty of disbursing the big fund of .Amelcan dollars contributed by the home folk. 3 The Knights of Columbus, like all uther organizations, is using every man and every dollar to its fullest ca- pacity.- In many sectlons of the coun- try little is known of the activity of the K. of C. in France. This has been due largely to the fact that more attention has been pald to actual en- deavor than to telling about it. . Briefly, the advent of the Knights of Columbus into the big things of this war was almost accidental, yet in actunl result, its endeavors have borne fruit consistent with long prepara- tion, A group of men was sent with the ploneer troops to France. Chaplains were furnished. Of the work of these men much has been sald and written. Many of them have been mentioned in official orders for bravery, several been decorated. . . As the American public respouded with generous enthusiasm to the gen- eral call for funds to provide comfort for the men overseas, the K. of C. work was broadened. Everywhere, at the very front line trenches, secretarles were present to supply absolutely free, chocolate. cigarettes, hot refreshment an¢ moral encouragement. vidual gifts of the organization during the last two months of the fighting totaled over 80.000.000. 5 i When the armistice was signed the wark did not cease. creased until today the personuel in France 1s inzdequate to meet the de mand apon Its facilities. i To Protect Poker Game.
