Our boy and our girl were raised right; they had the advantage of stern parental discipline, and| no matter in what company they are, they will be! found in no mischief.

Another thing we don’t understand is why our} children don’t get better marks at school. We know.they are bright and well mannered ;) but somehow they only get F and G on deport- ment, and an occasional E on scholarship. Probably the teacher doesn’t know her busi-} ness. If we didn’t have other folks’ children to con-! tend with, and had really.able teachers, that un-! derstood our children, it would be a much easier task to— iuWillie! -Willie, you hear me?’ You quit slap-| ping little sister right this minute; you come right! into the house, young man, or I’ll attend to you.” As we were saying, the ill bred, yes even tough} children of your neighbors is what makes city life| so unfortunate for parents.

OCIATED PRESS isively entitled to the use rd to it or not otherwise so the local news published RED IS THE DANGER COLOR; IT EXCITES THE MIND Why are Bolsheviki known as Reds? all revolutionists instinctively wave a red flag? Why red instead of some other color? A British scientist explai:.s. | Red, the danger color, represents mental ex- citement and unrest. It is the symbol of action—| of turmoil. Jules Guerin, color expert of the San Francisco} Exposition, proved by tests that red excites the mind. Dr. L. E. Landon went further—discov- ered that red wallpaper produces nervousness, bad temper and headache. “As mad-as a bull flaunted by a red rag.” t — | Take another color, blue. As peace emerges| from war, blue is the smart color for women’s} garments. The international flag used in relief | expeditions sent forth by the peace conference is| blue on a white background. “Certainly!” says the scientists. “Blue is a; pacifying color. It represents peace, just as blue wallpaper soothes a fretful mind and jumpy nerves.” What is your favorite color?—an important} to for your taste in colors reveals your real f. Green rests the eyes; we use it for eyeshades. Nature employs it extravagantly—in grass, trees; plants. If you love green, your disposition is con- tented, harmonious, well-balanced. People fond of violet or purple incline to be dreamy, temperamental, unusual. Dye a man’s | body purple. Place him in a room where he sees naught but purple. Swiftly his stomach revolts. Eventually he goes insane. Yellow makes us calm, satisfied, sluggish. Red excites to action, makes one emotional. Scientists even claim that a red undershirt in- creases a workman’s energy. Plants placed under green glass fade and with- er. Under blue glass, they grow rapidly and to exceptional size. So also color affects humans. Why do| {| t What is coolr, this strange thing that power- fully affects our bodies and minds though it can ; be neither measured nor weighed? . Color is to light what pitch is to sound. .

Attorney General William Langer of North Dakota doesn’t seem to be scared a bit by the roar- ing of A. C. Townley in respect to the developments’ of the schism within the ranks of the Nonpartisan league. The official Townley organ declared that a fund of $40,000 had been or was to be raised by Northwest jebbers, chiefly in Minneapolis and} St. Paul, but partly in Duluth and Fargo, with which to carry on a plot to put the United Con- sumers’ Stores company out of business. It inti- mated that Mr. Langer.was in on the “plot” in a way that made him a paid traitor to the league cause. Now Mr. Langer announces he has $1,000 to turn over to Mr. Townley or any other interested person who will bring forth credible evidence of the existence of any sort of illegal plot. It is a way of telling Mr. Townley that he is “talking through his hat” and of challenging him to “put up or shut up.” 2 If Mr. Townley has such evidence the way ‘is open for him to use it, and it will not be necessary for him to put it into the hands of Mr. Langer if he really believes the latter is wrongfully interest- ed party. Indeed, the attorney general has asked the state’s attorney of Cass county to use the resources and facilities of his office in an investi- gation of the Townley organ’s story. That makes | it easy for Mr.‘Townley, without any effort of his own, to unfold to a grand jury “all the horrible details” of the alleged plot. Jobbers of the Northwest have a perfect right to raise any sum they may see fit for a legitimate prosecution and extension of their business. If they have assembled a Aid for that purpose it is none of Mr. Townley‘s or the United Consumers’ Stores company’s affair. If they have gathered or re using money or methods illegally to stifle com- fetition ition the public ought to know it. Names, dates, places and specific acts are quite important in charges such as the Townley organ makes. Omitting’ these, anyone can go far in vituperation on the “safety first” principle—Minneapolis lathery things, and self. walking ing it “That's it and sys, f {the words came out pefulantly, vate citizens.

When you got to know Alfred Blair, vou found him singular- ly attractive. He had such a straight way of looking, and speaking, and do- ing things. He had a pleasantly modulated woice. He had, according to one or two enthusiasts, real tact and charm.

She'd god deal and asked a few questions, and profound and disquiet ing misgivings ‘were the result. Sa ‘And then came Alfred Blair, who put the misgivings to flight. The thing he'd given her first was an un- fathomable, sense of security, All the cts about him fitted in, of course; that he was alder, that\he was self- disciplined, and, it can not be denied, that he was prosperaus, — She tested him, cautiously at first, then with a growing confidence, The little privi- leges she gave him, she freely am- plified when she found he nevi tried to amplify them for himself. These never led her to doubt the s of. his passion for her. That was plain enough for the blind to see. But the will that reined it in Was supreme, Her new engagement and her mar- riage were wonderful, restoratives to her confidence. She felt her attitude to her two former lovers, which had caused her more doubts and unhappi- ness than she willing to admit, triumphantly j ed. Her instincts had not been wrong after all. Happi- ness didn’t necess hurt nor deface. For a while she was utterly content, and her contentipent, was spiced by 2 mild pity for pretty much all the rest of the world, and espectally for the girls who married thase two former lovers of hers. It was from un unexpected quarter ping up on the unruly, irrepressible growth i herself of a pasion for her hus- band. «© found the fine silken fabric of their life imperiled by. impulses of her own terrified mind. Jealousy was one of‘, them—utterly © without foundation inyfact,’ she knew, which ade it all the more te ne. Tiere was litle Nora: Brice, for ex- ample, soinewhere about twenty, whose people had lost. all) their” money, and who, as Much from inclination .as from ‘necessity, gave danciig ‘lessions. The Blairs and twovor tliree ‘puples of their friends had ‘her ii, ‘otdasion- ally, to keép them up to the’ minute, and she and! Alfred liad taken an in- nocently shameless faficy to each other. She laughed at him—treated him like a boy, proved to him, to his intense astonishment./that he could dance as well as anybody, and, under’ the stimu- lus of the ‘phonograph, -polished ‘off a h existed. Ceélia’s line, of ‘course, was good-hu- mored amusement, and she would, she felt, have been irretrievabl; shumed had any one discovered, ecpecially: had her husband discovered, the true emo- tions her ‘manner masked. But she could no more help feeling those sharp stabs of pain than she could have re- ted the neugralic twinges of a bad tooth. Jealousy was not the only feeling, either, that, shook and gripped and dismayed her. So, from whatever motive you like to name it (she tried hard not to name it cawordive), she clung to the thing that had once ‘not been ‘a mask—the cool aloofness, the fastidiousness, the kindly affectionate superiorit; went. on pointing out, with humorous. toler- ance, his little mistakes; maintained the’ position which he had ,once so eagerly acquiesced in and’ had never tried to change, that her duty toward him was to refine. and civilize him: induce him to appreciate the value of the ornamenta) and frivolous’ aspects of life: get him suppler—more, as she used to say, human.
