THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER. (Established 1873) GE ————————— HELP THE CLERKS! Help the clerks! Help yourself! Help business ! How? Do your Christmas shopping early, today ! The first Christmas after the war is going to be one of the greatest gift-giving seasons you’ve ever known. ae ay; The stores were ready long ago; with stacks of appropriate gifts for rich and poor,,young and old, boy and; girl, soldier, sailor and aviator. The clerks want to give you the best and cheer-j jest and quickest service of which they are cap- able. The earlier you come the more time they'll have to devote to helping and pleasing you. There are‘only 20.more days left for Christmas | shopping, retiember.' If you’re going to shop early, DO IT TODAY. If you do your Christmas shopping early in the day you’ll show a true Christmas spirit toward the clerks who must face and handle a tremendous trade this year, and who, from experience, dread the ordeal of the last week, last day, last hour rush of thoughless buyers. If you do your Christmas shopping early you'll help business by distributing sales over a reason- able period of time in a steadying flow. -#f you do your, Christmas.shopping early, you'll help yourself by taking advantage of early choice of large and well assorted stocks of goods and by having time and opportunity to inspect them. Do your Christmas shopping early today! Welcome waits for an open winter. . BUY! BUY! Go to it! The lid is off! : Buy all the Christmas gifts you can carry. Buy more than you can carry off. Let no deserving friend, no child, be forgotten. , Buy until you are “finan ially embarrassed !” “Buy until it hurts to 1odfe‘at your purse. This isn’t extravagant counsel. It is the urge of the New Thrift. Council of National Defense has removed all wartime restrictions on Christmas buying. You needn’t cut down your gift list for patriotic reasons. You needn’t limit yourself to buying a few “good wishes” cards. For the highest of patriotic reasons you can buy until your heart is content. ; The more you buy the better will business be: The better business becomes the easier the em- ployment question will be solved. Lively business means greater public confidence. Let’s all go to this Christmas buying stunt as the boys went at the big job in France—with en- thusiasm. , Aa The more we help boom business the more we’ll help ourselves. Even our philanthropy will be an interest-bearing investment. Germany’s peace commissioners ought to be se- lected not for the size of their mouths, but for the capabilities and length of their ears. Hear! Hear! THE SHATTERED ONES The junkpile is not contemptible. . Twisted and broken things have value neverthe- less. They can be remade into vital, useful things. Nature wastes nothing. The leaf that falls be- comes mold to feed another green leaf. Twisted and broken lives are not valueless. They can be mended. They are mended, every day. There is no such thing as a really “hopeless ex- istence.” Take the twist out of it and it can be- come beautiful and hopeful. You know of in- stances, of “come-backs,” lots of them. Twisted and broken men, men twisted and brok- en and marred and crippled and handicapped in the Great War, are coming across seas to us. They are not to be considered objects of char- ity. They are heroes. They are not useless, not hopeless. There isa place of usefulness for every one of them, where each may serve himself and his fel- lows: i ? ‘ They are the outward symbols of an inner. beau- : TPM Editor no north winds. a place in Society to fill, and they will be glad. we? j word. WEEDS litle things—the peach stones and the cherry pits and the old scraps of rubber and iron and table leavings and so on. We’ve been told to save food by utilizing weeds as substitutes—as pig- weed greens, for example. | Now that the war is ended in one phase, this |type of counsel is likely to vanish from among us. And it’s a pity, too. For if we don’t‘eat or other- wise use up our abundant weed crop it will go on causing no end of economic waste in destroying soil fertility and food-crop hindrance. Weeds might be made into paper is some sci- entiest were to take time to deal with the problem of ways and means. And in that’ event there’d never be another paper shortage. For the weed is omnipresent, ever with us, an offense to the eye and the mind. Why punish retail if we're not to punish whole- sale murderers? it CLAXTONISM So Philander Priestly Claxton, United States commissioner of education, is of the same opinion still, is he? Planning to force the study of Ger- man/language and literature in American schools from the 7th grade upward, is he? Evidently he thinks Americans are very stupid or very forgetful. American boys and girls aren’t going to study German in the public schools. This revulsion against German and German- ‘ism was and is no passing hysteria. German can’t come back while the America) nation remembers the-German campaign of argo) and murder aiid treason in this country; while the memory of the Lusitania survives; while a crip- pled, scarred survivor of the war lives in Amer- ica, or a grave of a fallen one or a veteran remains to be kept green. This is one country, under one flag, for one people; speaking one languagd. : Unity. That’s the word. ' There is no room for Claxtonism. Bolshevism made tn Germany for export seems destined to domestic consumption. Air rights! What rights has a man in the air over his house, his barn or his office or apartment building? No, this isn’t really a foolish question. Air laws are going to be necessary right soon. It used to be said that the landowner owned down to the middle of the earth and up to the ether-belt. / Passenger airships will soon be traveling the skies of all nations. One such carried 40 passen- gers over London the other day. You’ll be trav- eling through the air yourself by and by. It will be attractive traveling.’ No ruts in the air. No mud splashing. No running off the rails. No helding up one airship because another is late. Fas ttime—100 miles an hour. And'‘all that. Airplanes will need definition by statute. Pilots, airlines, will need licenses. Terminal privileges twill be valuable. Laws for their regulation will be necessary. Rights of passengers will need con- sideration. Rates of fare will call for legal enact- ;ments. Air police will be needed by large cities and for proper patrol of country districts, Thus will grow up a new body of law, calling for new experts in its definition. Air laws ought to be made and administered by persons having some knowledge of aeronautics. Schools will need textbooks on aeronautics as they now need revised geographies and new manuals of political econ- omy. Colleges will need courses in air laws to pre- pare air lawyers and air judges for the new prob- lems. A long look ahead, this? Not so long, perhaps. This is the New Age when conception and execu- tion merge, when ideas are born full-grown as na- tions are born in a day. Look up at this new sky filling with airplanes and be ready for the problems whose limit is the sky. America is rich, too, in suggestions and pro- grams for the readjustment period. “My-mouth has been closed,” says Fred Hohen- zollern in Holland. But his wind hasn’t yet been shut off. ‘ Red neckties will be rather less popular this hol- iday season after the experience of New York Socialists. z ie empty sleeve a badge of pin-the wooden leg:a sign “Of high newspapers.

CHURCH IS PLANNING FOR ~NEW CAMPAIGN Problems Which Must Be Met | With Close of War to Be Discussed Here “The Methodist Episcopal church, along with several other leading pro- testant denominations, is determined that it shall not ‘be found wanting in the reconstruction days,” said Rev. C. E. Vermilya, superintendent of tho Bismarck district of the M. E. church, in announcing plans for a reconstruc- tion conference in this city next week, “Its leaders and membership,” con- j tinued Rev. Vermilya, “have become ; convinced that the signing of the arml- stice or even articles of peace is and will be no guarantee of a better world unless provision is made for a wider acceptance of the spirit of the Christ as thé?tide ‘dasis'‘for all social and political’ proceedure. The spirit that will make war impossible and pre serve peace is none other than the spirit that has learned to love the neighbor somewhat as one loves him- self. \ “In accordance with this convic- tion, the Methodist church has launch- ed a great movement for the speedy regeneration of the world Before the United States had declared war, arrangements were made for celebrat, ing the hundredth anniversary of the organization of the missionary society of the church, which involved a great forward, move. g as made the need m clear amd,the conviction more certain.

The democracy of Christ .that stands through. unselfish hearts. is to pe the goal. “Next, Tuesday night,, December 3, a team of leaders will reach Bismarck for a meeting of the ministers and lay leaders of the Bismarck district of this church.
