There are many salaried people who have today about the same amount of money to spend for raiment that they had four years ago. To date we have noted no system that would enable such persons to be modishly dressed in the style to which they were accustomed. Hence we offer the following, which we have worked out for our private benefit: We find that we must pay for a necktie today what we formally paid for a pair of shoes. A pair of shoes costs what we paid for a pair of pants. A pair of pants costs what a raincoat did. A raincoat costs what a suit did. And a suit costs what four tires for the family touring car did. Every so often we save enough to buy some- thing in the way of clothes. Very well, when we save enough for a pair of shoes, we get a necktie. Follow this closely, please. In due time, where formerly we would have ac- quired a pair of neat striped pants for our second best suit, we now acquire a pair of shoes. Every other year, when we formerly bought a top coat, we now secure a pair of pants. And when they take the census we either get four tires for the auto or the decennial suit of clothes. This schedule is based on the buying of goods of the same quality as of yore; it maintains your dignity and keeps you in the nifty dresser class. Instead of a new pair of pants you have a right smart tie; you have a pair of silk sox instead of; a pair of shoes. You get a new hat instead of an overcoat, and a silk muffler instead of winter underwear. : : In due time the fashions will be shifted so that equal social credit will be given the dresser attired in shiny top hat and modish tie, regardless of his trousers or his half-soled shoes. Most of the mandate enforcing styles in dress, enforcing a fixed quality, comes from the aesthetic urge, and better that this urge be satisfied with a real tie of the proper shade, and texture and shape, than with a plebian shoddy suit. The South Sea islanders, who were entirely dressed when they had on a shark tooth necklace; a pair of celluloid cuffs and a top hat, were merely pioneers, blazing. the trail for the tardy feet of their civilized brethren. This month sometime we expect to get a pair of rich, madder lake, or burnt orange sox; we meant to get a couple of pairs of flannel drawers, but; after a survey of the marts of trade we have com- promised on the pair of sox, and the retention of our B. V. D.’s. The bore and his welcome are soon parted. INVENTORS - Why do so many inventors fail to financially realize on their inventions? ; It is more often their failure to recognize cer- tain very simple natural laws of business rather than the shrewd maneuverings of others. There are three elements to a financial success from a new invention: First, there is the invention itself, then there is its economical production and finally the sell- ing—educating people to buy it and use it. This means that those who supply each of these elements are entitled to a share in the profits, to say nothing of those who finance the enterprise and who may assume large risk on its outcome. More often the largest problem of a new in- vention is its sale~its introduction. There is frequently more time, money, effort and sometimes more! ingenuity displayed in mar- keting a device than in its original, invention. All of us are more or less conservative about b buying new devices and adapting new ways and ANG manners of doing things, and this tendency must i be broken down by educational advertising and personal salesmanship. It took more time and money and effort to in- troduce the telephone into one city than it did to invent it. e d This was also true with the sewing machine— people first: thought it a device of the evil one to throw poor women out of employment, Up until the organization of the International Harvester company a very large part of the pro- fits from the sale of harvesters were used in sales inducing farmers to use them. \ en, in cases where inventors are in business Ss THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE ——$<—$<$<$ <—— ns Entered at the Postoffice, Bismarck, N.

As a result the inventor made enough out of the enterprise in ten years to retire. The largest steel foundry in Ohio was built up around the invention of a certain type of car coupler. In the beginning it met with almost financial failure; for the industry was in charge of the in- ventor who used a large part of his original capital in experimenting, making changes, in new pat- terns and the remelting of metal in an effort to improve upon his original invention. The success of the enterprise did not come un- til the inventor was relieved of the production, and changes not permitted in his device faster than it could be produced and sold. There is an old saying around a certain class of industries: ‘Many a good thing has died of improvements.” That coal strike may lezgve us cold elsewhere, but it makes us hot.under the collar. You can tell this is a democracy by the fact that everybody not in authority knows precisely how the situation should be handled. Wilson says that war-time prohibition will end with the signing of the treaty. There is more than one way to appeal to a senator.

I received your paper while I was in France and read it to pass long weary hours away, and I know. that it will do the same for me here, I signed up for Siberia but this ig as far as I got for Denver, and Fort Logan took my GAS FROM LIGNITE A brief news dispatch from Antelope, Mont., tells of the success of a local experimenter in using as a source of power gas derived from lignite as a substitute for gasoline. There is in this field | the possibility, in fact the certainty, of an im- portant development in power generation. Of course it isnot news that coal—lignite as well, as other varieties—contains gas which may be used for power production. That fact is well understood. And the separation of this gas from lignite is not a very complicated process. The problem is not to extract the gas, but to deliver it where it is required. Obviously, the gas must be used at the place of production, or it must be transported in some other form. The shipment of gas in the form of gas is scarcely to be considered. : The high percentage of moisture which all our lignite contains complicates the problem. To ship lignite fresh from the mine for considerable dis- tances is not commercially practicable when the fuel is needed for power purposes, and eastern coal can be obtained at reasonable prices. The freight charges on the water contained constitute a dead loss which no industry can stand. No suc- cessful method of drying the coal before shipment has yet been found. Coal mined in the spring and subjected to the action of the air for months will have lost much of its moisture, but such a pro- cess means double handling, which is prohibi- tive because of its cost. As a practical proposi- tion, lignite to be used most effectively must be loaded on the car direct from the mine, and that means that it must be loaded wet. ; The place where power can most effectively be produced from lignite is at the mouth of the mine; but it happens that just at the present that is the very place where not much power is needed. The matter seems to reduce itself to the propo- sition of burning the gas extracted from the lig- nite at the point of production and there generat- ing electricity: which can be transported success- eye so I decided to stay here, Fort Logan is several miles _ south west of Denver, and close to the moun- tains, Some of us boys are going for a sight seeing trip through the moun- tains Sunday snd visit Pikes Peak, and some other famous places. south . of Denver.

BOUND TO BE AN AMERICAN Seaman Sells His Only Suit to Get Naturalization Fee. It’s great to be an American, and William James Carson, 20 years old, a seaman of Dalton, Scotland, proved he would sacrifice everything he owned to be called a son of Uncle Sam. Well dressed, Carson applied at the office of J. E. Jackson} naturaliza- tion examiner in New Orleans, and wanted to take out naturalization pa: ‘pers. He was fixed up, but didn’t have $1, which Uncle Sam requires to accompany each first intention decla- ration. “Don't worry about that,” said Car- son to Jackson. “Will this office be open long? I'll be right back.” Clean shaven, but dressed in over- alls, Carson appeared once more, and was given his first papers. Cargon explained to the government men that he tried to enlist in the United States army, but was refused becwruse he was not q citizen. “Why, I saw those men fight, and I want to be an American. soldier,” Carson said as he left the office to head for one of the nearest recruiting stations, where he was accepted.
