Strutz, pastor of the Bismarck Evangelical church, believes that the only thing that can save America today is a great religious revival. Rey. Strutz points to the fact that a religious awakening was responsible for the settlement of America; that all of the great literature of a cen- tury or more following the colonization of this country was due to the teachings of the great re- vivalist, Edwards. He traces religion’s hand in America’s develop- ment on down through the early part of the nine- teenth century to the abolitionist period, which freed America from slavery, and tells of the work done by Frances Willard, Dwight L. Moody and other great revivalists of the past century, all of whom, said Rev. Strutz in his Armistice day sermon, appeared at a time of great national need. Dr. Strutz insists that to save America from the great industrial crisis which he sees confront- ing it today there will appear another Luther, another Calvin, another Wesley, another Edwards or another Moody. Strutz does not refer to Billy Sunday, who has perhaps converted more sinners than any other evangelist who has ever lived, as this prospective savior of the world. There never was a time since the coming of Christ when His gospel was so sorely needed as it is today. Will the church prove equal to the occasion ? ADVERTISING Some of the best literature these days seems to be in advertising. That is, if literature is for the purpose of con- veying thoughts, ideas and to promote action— word carpentering to these ends. It is true that there is no mystic_poetry in ad- vertising, nor romance save as it is sometimes used to picture the profit possibilities of far off mining and oil regions, to appeal to the imagina- tions of those of us to whom distant pastures always seem the greenest. The average advertisement stimulates more thought, and action upon the thought, and by its appeal to our sense of pleasure or profit than any other literary form. And it does it in less space and in a fewer num- ber of words. The reason for this economy and efficiency is this: : An advertiser pays a large sum for the white space and he is naturally economical with it. More thought is put upon the space. He conveys the idea and: promotes the action with the fewest number of carefully selected expressions. Every word, phrase, sentence and paragraph is weighed to this end. Other forms of writing are paid for by the num- ber of words or space occupied, and there is not the natural incentive to economy of expression as in advertising. Advertisers paying large sums for white space as they do, have found it economical to employ men skilled in the art of expression—word car- pentering; for more results are obtained for the expenditure in white space. In this way some, of the best writers of the younger generation have been drawn into the advertising field—men with reputations in other and wider literary fields. a ee WITH THE EDITORS } . |e tt nnn THERE IS ONLY ONE “OFFICIAL” COUNTY PAPER Some of the flat headed “independent” pub- lishers: are still running the words “Official County Paper” at the top of their pages—it’s done through maliciousness, there can be no doubt, but that does not bring them any revenues, and but serves to show the depth of their thinking ability. —Lakota Observer.

FRAZIER BUTTS IN About the time, either a little after or a little before, the issuance of the injunction against the miners’ strike by Attorney General Palmer of the United States law department, Governor Frazier of North Dakota wires President Lewis of the miners’ federation at Indianapolis that he stands ready to co-operate with the latter, and to take over the lignite mines of this state and operate them. Mr. Lewis wires back his appreciation of the kind sentiment toward the miners so set forth and says he will see what is to be done. He then wires Director Drennan, in Montana, who has charge of the miners’ organization for these two states, telling him to come down and look over the North Dakota situation and act accordingly. Mr. Drennan reached Bismarck, confers with our governor and other members of our great in- dustrial commission on parade, and tells them and it that he will instruct the miners in the state to stay on their jobs until such time as their con- tract expires or until otherwise ordered. The men at Wilton, the largest mines in the state, who stopped temporarily on the strike order, were rejoiced, and went to work at once. They had not wanted to strike, but “orders is orders,” and very thankful were they to obey. So also did the miners at Burlington in the Minot district and elsewhere. And what becomes of the governor’s plan for taking over private property and embarking the state in another public utility? Will he insist on setting aside the.orders of Director Drennan and turning mine operator under Townley, or will he subside? It will be noticed that when the governor faced the assumed necessity of doing something, he He While the miners were directed by their leader Governor Frazier has called a The feeling the pinch of the situation, is ignored. Not ji a word from the governor of the state about the public, but he considers only the demands of the striking workmen and their autocratic leaders. With the Montana and Wyoming miners out and the confiscation of eastern and Colorado coal and a strike at home, it would seem we are facing a serious situation and to feel that the governor lines up with those who are attempting to put the pinchers in action is indeed disturbing. Where will he stop?—Steele Ozone. Lieutenant Maynard drew a record congrega- tion for his first sermon after the flight across the continent. They came to see a hero.
