FRIDAY, JULY 18, 1919. * 4 BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE ' RAIN GENERAL IN PARTS OT STATE BUT NOT HEAVY Underwood Reports One and a Half Inches Fell There Up to 9 A. M. OTHER SECTIONS REPORT The comparatively light rain fall- ing at Bismarck this morning was general through the western and cen- tral portion of the state, according to reports reaching this city today. Still further rains, which are predicicd to be heavy are expected late this after- noon and tonight. By means of a lot of circles and figures and funny little inscriptions, O. W. Roberts, the Bismarck weather prophet, who nas compiete charge orl all the weather in this part o: the hemisphere, is sure that the rain- storm scheduled to visit Bismarck, Burleigh county and other _ points around this particular garden spot, will not prove a disappointment. The particular. rainstorm headed this war at the present time had its origin around ‘Alaska and Calgary, according to Mr. Roberts and is mov- ing southward. It will ‘probasly pass through the Dakotas and find a tinal resting place in the Gult of Mexico. Inasmuch as rain has not tell in tits Particular section in any great quan- tities since last May, it will be greai- ly_ welcomed and appreciated, espe- cially among the agricultural com- munities... Whetner tue storm will ve accompanied by hail is not forecast- ed, but all well-wishers of good crops and general _ prosperity are hoping that the little icy pellets, if they are due, will. melt into tiny rivulets of the golden fluid while sojourning in our iniast. According to the local bureau’s rec- ords, a total of 4.06 inches of rain fell during the mont of May, the major- ity of it falling during the last week. Practically nothing, with the excep- tion of the small shower Sunday, has fallen since that time. For the en- tire month of June less than one-half of an inch of rain fell, But the storm due today will bring a healthy rain if the weather bureau's prediction ma- terialize. According to the reports received up to 9 a. m. today ‘by the Soo offi- cials, the storm is moving eastward from this point. The following is a list of towns reported and the amount of rain which fell up to 9 a. m.: Kief, 1-4 inch; Dogden, 1-4 inch; Ruso, 1-2 inch; Max, 1 inch; Douglas, 1 inch; Ryder, 1 inch; Makoti, 1 inch, Plaza, 1-4 inch; Parshall, 1-4 inch; Van Hook, 1-2 inch; Sanish, 1-4 inch; Garrison, 1-2 inch; (rain still falling) Gold Harbor, 1-4 inch; Underwood, 1 2 inches; Washburn, 1-2 inch (rain ‘still falling) ; Wilton, 1-2 inch, (rain still falling).

A stock company started an ostrich farm in the valley with more than 50 of the long-legged birds, Then the creator of fashions ruled out ostrich plumes. Many birds were sold and the few remaining ones given to the city for exhibition pur- poses at Washington park. Now plumes are.in style once more.

This statement was made by Dr. W. Franklin Jones, regarded as an international authority on “handed- ness” and dean-elect of the school of education of the University of Southern California, “Tt your child is left-handed,” said Dr: Jones, ‘don’t try to make it right-handed. It was ‘born with a major arm and in transferring the use of the hands you may discon- nect the ‘wires’ and stammering may result. “Ninety-six per cent are born right-handed and the re- maining four per cent left-handed. “One half of the people who stam- mer have transferred the use of their hands. “One-third of all left-to-right trans- fers are stammerers. “One-sixth of all right-to-left trans- fers are stammerers. “Less than one per cent of ‘pure’ handed individuals are stammerers. “The, fundamental fact of handed- ness, so far as we can yet unravel it, is the fact of congenital cerebral asymmetry. The present-day knowl- edge of ibrain psychology is very in- complete, but a speculative treatment of our problem in terms of the best theory that physiological phychology has to offer ;will at least be better than no attempt at all at explanation. “We may take as our _ starting point the prevailing physicological theory that there are four highly specialized cortical centers involved in the speech of the normal adult; namely two sensory auditory and the visual—and two motor— the vocal and the writing (graphic word) centers; that all four of these certers are normally located in one (hence the superior) hemisphere of the brain, namely, the left hemis- phere in the BORN right-handed in- dividual, and the right hemisphere in the BORN left-handed person; and that though the muscles of the vocal organs are anatomically connected with each hemisphere, they are func- tionally connected with only one; and, insofar as the hand is an organ of sneech, at least, it shares the same asymmetry. “wnen we come to speculate on the fact that stammering commonly begins before the age of eight years, we may assure that, since this is the period when the language centers are being developed, it is also the time when the functional unity of these centers is the least stable. The trans- fers are the probable stammerers, probably for the reason that the unity of the language centers is so likely to be disturbed.’ According to Dr. Jones, nagging, exasperating, threatening -hand-tying, mitten-wearing and. other “home- made devices “to stop left-handedness in children superinduce morbid sensi- tivity and nervous ‘Hervous instability.

Jones believes that they will be highly successful. » The matter of attending the Fargo welcome to the veterans of the war was taken up, but on account of the distance to that city and the fact that most of the members of the Bismarck chapter are too busy to attend, this city will not send an official delega- tion. The members discussed the matter of organizing a company of the state guard at Bismarck and just as soon as additional information can be ob- tained from state officials and the federal government it is quite likely i that.a company. of at least 150 mem-|. bers will be formed which will be com- posed largely of former service men.

BROWN & JONES What a woman told us yesterday She was telling us why she went out of her way to buy her groceries from us. “Qne reason,” she said, “is because I’m always so sure of getting things that are good. Besides you people seem to do everything you can to make my shopping easy.” Not all.our customers tell us that, but we feel certain that these are the big reasons we have so many patrons and why we’ve had them so long. We do try to make buying groceries easy and pleasant and we do try to have the best of everything in the grocery line. 6 lb. bag Rolled Oats LOL reikiacsiessieiet Kream Krisp, Special, per pound .

It is made with great care and we try to please the public as it is quite an are to get things uniform. A short time ago I had two carloads of cattle shipped from So. St. Paul, which were the best cattle in So. St. Paul at that time. They were all steers weighing from 1200 to 4090 pounds with exception of a few baby beef. We are still cutting meat from same, which no doubt is the very best. ‘As the cattle here are not quite fat enough, compelled me to go to So. St. Paul for some. At present time we have a quite a large bunch of cattle on hand and we are selecting the best out of the fed cattle are not very plentiful, but we have the first vunch for immediate use, as class beef. We have a full line of Fresh Fruits and Vegetables of all kinds—being the best on the markei. We are making a strong effort to keep the prices down.
