It’s an ill,wind that blows no good, runs the proverb and the people at Okabena, Al- bert Lea and Willmar were able to avoid Town- |] ley’s high wind because of nature’s competition. . THE BIRDS One thinks of birds as shy and delicate creat- ures easily frightened by a sudden sound. That’s error. : A bird is disturbed by noise only so long as the noise is associated with danger. The moment noise ceases to threaten them, birds seem to mind it not at all. There’s the gentle, lisping Phoebe. This ‘little bird chooses to nest under bridges across which wagons and trucks pass frequently with a deafening roar. If the bridge is under rail- road tracks, where the racket is. yet greater, it’s all one to Phoebe. ae | The night hawk is a more common resident of cities than most persons suspect. That is because the night hawks sleep through the day, and fly at night. Many of them seem to have abandoned the quiet country for the city. The gravel roof of some high office building in the noisy center of the city is the chosen nesting place of Mrs. Night Hawk. The sound of a’ gun frightens birds only. be- cause they associate it with danger. The creature . most harried by nerves and noisé is the one that makes the most noise of all. That’s Man! Rgv. John Flint, formerly a pastor of a Bis- marck church, is delivering a series of speeches in North Dakota praising the Nonpartisan league. Rev. Flint, it might be rernembered, was the only minister in the state who rushed to the defense of the league’ administration during the “free love” controversy at the special session of the leg- islature. PLAY IT SAFE “Better be safe than sorry” applies particularly to. motor car driving. f Figure not only that you are going to do the right thing. Take. into consideration that the other man may do the wrong one. Check up on the possibilities. When you cross a railway track, better do as the sign says:\ “Stop, look and listen.” Be sure there’s no approaching “train on the tra¢ks. Be sure that your motor isn’t going to stall on the tracks, too. Failure to be particularly careful of railway crossings results in thousands of deaths a year in this country. : And in cities and towns: Don’t start from the curb, forward or backward without seeing to it that the coast is clear. Watch the cross streets and slow down when you cross so as to have the car under full control. Always—always—out of common courtesy, dim the lights when you approach another car at night. 4 Don’t cut corners in turning street corners. Keep to your side and so give the other fellow a chance. Pass a slow or moving car to its left, but keep to the right of street cars. Signal a car following you, or a possible car ABOUT FACE! The socialistic-leaders ,of the Nonpartisan league must be feeling the tide of defeat over- whelming them. The Emmons County Free Press, a league organ, in a recent editorial to “The. Business Men in General” wants to im- press on the town and city merchants that they are not the tools of “Big Biz” that Townley’s' press has constantly. intimated they were. For instance the following gem from the aforemen- tioned editorial: “When you hear some one roasting ‘Big Busi- ness’ do you prick up your ears? Well forget it! You are not, the one being talked about. Had there been no one but you exploiting the farmers of this state there would not have been any Non- partisan league. So there is no occasion for roasting you.” y As Japan becomes more commercial she be- comes less militaristic. She has learned that the yen is mightier than the sword. INCONSISTENCY Just to prove to you that we are all more or less —mostly more—inconsisterft : | Anybody was riding in an auto. Anybody was anxious to get to his destination. And he pushed his foot down hard on the gas lever so his ma- chine would travel right along— And then some other anybody got right in the way and the first anybody had to slow down— he could have been arrested for what he was thinking about the anybody who blocked his way, Another time the first anybody happened to be a mere pedestrian. He crossed a street corner and had to make a quick dodge to avoid being hit by a passing auto.. Maybe he yelled some- thing to the driver—anyway he thought a heap of distasteful things. It all depends on which one of the anybody’s you are, doesn’t it? Why and where do we get that inconsistency? Suggestion to Louisiana: There is very little difference between ratify and gratify. DO ANIMALS REASON? ‘ To reason is to figure things out—to put facts together and see what they involve. To be in- telligent is to be able to do new things success- fully, no matter how. ‘ ! There is no doubt that animals learn to do new things—to find their way home from some strange place, to know their master’s voice. But do they reason? " Here is the test: Put a hungry cat in a box made of slats, with a door that she can open eas- ily by turning a wooden button; put some fish outside, and keep track of the time. The cat will probably scratch about until at last she moves ‘the button and gets out. Let her have some of the fish and put her in again. If she reasons she ought to see that. the button is what counts, and get out agan easily. But she doesn’t. She may save a little time by starting to scratch near the part of the box where she escaped. But it is only gradually, through many trials, that she learns exactly what to do. This is like a man learning some act of skill. But it is not like reasoning. And the more psychologists experiment, the more convinced they are that animals learn. They do not reason, But ‘then, how many men do? . It might: stop sud | meee » The lariats cease to whirl, 1 ADO TUESDAY, MAY 25, 1920 21a ttn ttt tht tc DOIN’!

The message, which is published by The American Legion Weekly, reads: “We approach the annual celebra- tion of Memorial day with our heart: filled with tender and grateful memor- ies of those who have given their lives for America.. The day has by custom been consecrated to the country’s her- oic dead. «It is observed by those who were comrades in arms and who shar- ed with the well-remembered dead the experiences, the hardships, the perils and the glory of war; it is celebrated by the people of the country general- ly who take it as an annual occasion to renew their loyalty to their country, and to draw fresh inspiration for the tasks of peace from the memory of the sacrifices which were made so freely in times of war. The day is, there- fore, filled' with both memories of the bast and inspirations for the future. It gathers the traditions of what we have done in order:that we may have eourage for what we have to do. Pro- gress moves like an army; it has its days of training and! preparation, iis days of conflict and its days of vindi- cation; it has its campfires and its memories. To you who were soldiers of America in the great war I send af- fectionate greetings. What your arms have done for. liberty in France your spirits will continue to do for justice at ‘home. Great experiences. make great men and out.of the ‘tradegy of “his test a new, heroic quality has come to American manhood. You re- present it and!.your country’s affection for what you have already done is ‘only equalled by its’contident hope ot the manly part, you are still to play.” “AT THE MOVIES | ‘ te »ELTINGE THEATRE Coleen Moore, leading woman in “The Cyclone,” the new: Tom Mix thriller, tonight at the Eltinge theatre, saved her life ‘by applying’a lesson the great cowpuncher star had taught her when she played with him in “The Wilderness Trail.” + In staging “The (Cyclone” near Pres- cott, Arizona, a strong scene required that the young woman be kidnapped from her grandfather's ranch. Pat ‘Chrisman, one of Mix’s cowboys, was given the job of driving the team. He was not aware that the horses had not been hifched properly, and soon after he started from Burnt Ranch, just outside Prescott, a trace broke loose. The team plunged, and although Chrisman is a wonderful rider and driver, he soon found that ‘he had lost control of the team. Just as the horses, going at a terrific speed, were about to plunge into a gulch at the right of the road, Miss Moore jump- ed, as Tom Mix often had told her to dp. His tutorship. stood her in good stéad. She knew that if she alighted in the wrong way she would probably ‘oreak a limb at least, so she doubled up, turned a somersault in the air, and landed on the back of her neck and shoulders. She rolled’ on and on, went over once or ‘twice, and the im- pact was broken. She got througi with little more than a mussed hat. Pat Chrisman leaped and did the same thing; ‘but that is an old story with Pat. ‘Winegrape growers of California are proceeding to cultivate their vines as thought nothing happened. , Kansas agricultural’ experts have found that dynamiting in heavy clay frequently injuries both soil and crops.
