This is not the time to upbraid those whose hearts still throb for mother country, and who still have a divided allegiance. There is no use arguing the right or wrong off the matter; it is a good time to end forever this alien tongue thing, alien tongue and alien thought and alien sermon and alien editorial, and all the rites of the various fatherlands. By a hair this nation remained a nation re- cently. Uriless we speedily arrange.our digestive ap- paratus so that we can absorb this great ;raw hunk of alien meat within us we are likely next time to have a-serious setback, perhaps a major operation ; mayhap, a well attended funeral. All over this country foreigners today gather in, dozens and‘scores and hundreds. Gather in foreign clubs, where foreign songs are sung, where foreign speeches are made, where customs and habits and traditions of nations that we recently were in death grapple with, “are up- lifted and lauded. We don’t blame these folks, that’s silly But we do insist that the sooner it is made obligatory, on every American citizen to speak English, and teach English, and preach English, and editorialize in English the better. : i ave been making their daily ~ bread, “With 'a large piece of cake besides, in this country for 40 years have had time enough to learn the 300 words. needed to speak business and social English... \ There is no ae for the‘ public school teach- ing of German, or ANY. OTHER LANGUAGE BUT ENGLISH. *,~- f \ Better make a clean sweep, let the occasional few who desire French or Spanish, or German, or Russian,’ or Chinese, or Japanese,, or Cherokee pursue their studies privately, or after the gram- mar grades'when foreign languages may really be of some slight value in a professional career. Play no favorites, give no loophole for excuses ; this is the United States of America for American citizens; English-speaking citizens without any Hochs, or Si Senor, or We We Beebe, or, , Georgia da Wash, monkey business. And those who can’t be Americans, who must} ' hang on to fatherland customs and traditions and language, while they glean American dollars, let them go back home where their hearts are, and give real Americans a chance. Recently we have discovered several groups of Hun-minded folks slipping out of the holes they crawled into a year and more ago, and these “good American citizens” are as Hunnish ae when ithey went in. There is one'we ay to end this; prohibit the pbs lic use of foreign languages; prohibit foreign ser- mons; foreign language newspapers. Did we kill and maim a quarter million Ameri- can boys, andpour out billions to reserve this country for alot of sly Hun-minded aliens to grow fat therein? Whether you. are German, Dutch, Pole Ruma- nian, Greek, Chinese, Hottentet, or from nowhere in particular, if you are going to accept the oppor- tunities of this country, its protection, its freedom and its prosperity, you must become an English- speaking, American-thinking, citizen without backward look, or “home” yearning. on those who won’t come clean, throw ’em yout. We've been entirely too meek and mild and gentle with these potential traitors in our midst. Throw ’em out! HOW THE WORLD LOOKS TO THE PESSIMIST When the pessimist arises in the morning he ; feels sure in advance that he is going to nick his ' face in shaving or stick some tooth paste in his eye or something like that. He feels convinced that at breakfast his coffee will be cold and the eggs not cooked to suit him. Because he feels this way he does just exactly : what he had expected to do, he cuts out a nice : meaty hunk-from his chin, he declares the coffee ' is cold—though it is warm enough for all the F others in the house—and he calls down the cook for the condition of the eggs, although they have ; been cooked just as usual. | With this bad start the pessimist feels, as cus- tomary, that it is going to be an unlucky day for him. ‘ coanneeegneremneen one 0 | tenance. He declares gloomily to himself that before the c.y is over He. will/get a call down from the boss, will lose a’couple of customers’ahd'fall down stairs and break his neck, or something. Consequently he is in just the right mood to get the boss in a condition where a call down is inevitable. He loses a couple of customers poses he has told himself it is inevitab\e that. he will lose them. And he does fall down ‘and nearly breaks his neck but—just at the critical moment—a smiling optimist steps up and saves him. Which leads us to a consideration of the way the world looks to the optimist. The optimist arises in the morning with a tune on his lips and a gladsome smile upon his coun- He knows he is going to enjoy his breakfast and—because he feels that he is going to like it— ‘it seems one of the best breakfasts he ever ate. He knows he is going to be praised by the boss and make new sales records during the day and all that and—because he has this attitude toward| his business—he gets what he expects. And he feels that before the day is over he will help some poor sufferer who, as stated above, turns out to be the pessimist. ! Pessimism and optimism are ninety per cent states of mind. How does the world look to YOU? Which are YOU? SHE STOOD AT THE GATE WELCOMING ‘HIM IN :There are policemen im several of our large American cities who make a practice of testing the degree \of disability of a person detained, on account of disorderty conduct, by requiring such person to pronounce the words: “She stood at the gate welcoming him in.” Progress is rapid and easy on the first five words. The last three m‘ght aimost trap a ed fectly sober person into a hesitant stammei™ Mi fact, we have known total abstainers tg, attempt? a fast, pronunciation of this sentence ‘and when it came to saying “welcoming him in,” they be- came suspicious of their own mental and oral con- dition, ; After July 1 maybe there will be less trouble about this whole business of making a strong man, able to do a big day’s work, stand up before five policemen repeating the words: “She stood at-the gate welcoming ‘him in.” ADVERTISING REDUCES THE COST OF GOODS \ There are economists of standing who say that advertising is the ‘cause for the increased_cost of foods. .

Judge Carland came to Bismarck when -he was young and the city younger to enter upon the practice of law. He served “several terms as mayor of the city in territorial days. and he was prominent among the ba risters, of the territory. When dele- gates to the North Dakota constitu tional convention were elected in 1889, Burleigh’ county’s choice fell upon f "PEOPLE'S FORUM (| NOT FOR POLITICAL EFFECT. Ryder, N. Dak., May 12, 1919.

But time is an important factor'in the cost of goods, carrying charges in the way of interest and rent, from the time of production to final sale. The speed with which goods are sold deter- mines their price and in another larger way than reducing the carrying charges. A The faster,a stock of goods is soid the smaller, the lower the margin of profit the manufacturer or merchant is compelled to charge the consumer. The profit from doing business is notin the large profit on each sale, but rather the auimber of profits from many sales... +, in Many small profits froi each sale mal one large profit. Hi This principle is technically known as “turn- over,” and is the number of times a merchant sells his complete stock in a year—turn the stock into money. oe Say for instance a Meads store makes four per cent net profit only on a dollar of sales. But say it “turn,” sells the stock completely once a week, 52 times a year, is not this merchant making 52 times four per cent, equalling 208 per cent annual profit? It seems paradoxical that a° customer should pay only one-half cent profit on ten cents .worth of candy to enable the merchant to make 208 per cent, but it will’ be understood in. considering the fact that the investment is in one week’s supply only. Both the manufacturer and merchant ‘use ad- vertising to speed ‘the sale of goods—increase the “turnover.” Kae If they are able to sell at less individual profit they are thus able to reduce the, price—increase the market by making the goods within the price range of more persons. Advertising is the speed lever, the high gear of sales. It is not only an educational factor tomers and better goods, but at a lower price to the con- sumer by enabling the product and merchant to live and prosper at a lower margin of individual profit. * Marshal Foch isn’t satisfied with the peace treaty, but this isn’t the first time diplomats have thrown away what soldiers gained.
