Leaving school is a beginning and never before have young men and women had such an opportunity for a good start as in these times. “The threshold of life,’? which will be celebrated in many commencement orations during the next few weeks, never afforded such enchanting view of success as now. a Formerly the commencement orator spoke of him- self as standing hesitant at that threshold, his hand on the latch of the closed door, a bit fearful of what was in store for him within. Today the door is wide open, and welcoming hands beckon the graduate to come right in and make himself at home and get busy and take a share in the construction of the industrial empire that shall be America. For America, too, is just ‘‘ecommencing,”’ and’ like the new graduate, has not yet altogether found itself. It, too, is standing on the threshold of a great future, tremendous in its opportunities; gorgeous with the visions of success it presents, despite tem- porary clouds that seem to obscure the view at times. About ten years ago it was customary to say that the day of great opportunity for young men had passed in America. America, it was said, was a completed structure; the railroads were supposed to be all built, and all its possible industries were thought to be established. The future was regarded as involving more prudent upkeep’of the completed structure, rather than calling for great new enter- prises. But the prospect has changed. A new America is in the building. What seemed finished now. ap- pears only half done. Great new enterprises are in development. With giant strides America advances into the markets of the world. It is again a pioneer nation, prospecting for opportunities. Therefore, congratulations, 1920 graduates! a great year for commencing. ANOTHER BLACK BLOT No socialist has a right to complain now that Woodrow Wilson, president of the United States, threw down their party during his second admin- istration, The liberation of Kate Richards O'Hare, mother of traitors, and one of the vilest tonghed seditionists uncovered during the world war, should, as history is written, be noted as another black blot on an ad- ministration which was fullsof historical promise. In any other country Kate Richards O’Hare would have been given life in the penitentiary for her activities. She not only defied the government, de- livered speech after speech advising young men to avoid the draft, but she declared the mothers of our soldiers were ‘‘no better than brood sows,’’ when they permitted their boys to go to war ‘‘that their bodies might fertilize the fields of France.’”’ Soon after this country entered the world war, the socialists held a convention in St. Louis. In their resolutions they practically called President Woodrow Wilson a liar and the tool of graft and greed. Kate Richards O’Haxe was chairman of the committee which drafted. the resolutions and her name was the first signed to them. For these words and her numerous seditious speeches in North Dakota, President Wilson par- dons her. It is a great ‘victory for the Nonpartisan league leaders in North Dakota, Governor Frazier being the leader in efforts to secure the release of Kate Richards O’Hare. She can now return to Townley and Mills from whom she says herself she learned “all which she knows about socialism.”’ From a careful reading of the court record and the words of Judge Martin J. Wade of the federal district court, who sentenced Mrs. O’Hare, The In- dependent heartily condemns the course of Wood- row Wilson in pardoning this wicked woman. His action is simply indefénsible-—Helena Independent. “RED KATE”’ LIBERATED On this, the day devoted to homage to America’s hero dead, Americans awake to realize that, at the hands of the President of the United States, the grossest possible insult has been offered to every man who wore the uniform of his country during the late war. This is strong language, but not too strong, we think, .to condemn the action of My. Wilson in lib- erating from prison on Saturday the woman who charactereized the mothers of American soldiers as ‘brood sows.’’ We refer, of course, to the. Presi- dent’s commutation, to take effect immediately, of the five-year sentence imposed upon Kate Richards O'Hare. It was in an address at Bowman, N. D., in behalf of the Nonpartisan league that ‘‘Red Kate’’ used the language for which she was very properly ar- rested. She was tried before a jury of honest Amer- iecans, and found guilty of violating the espionage act, and Judge Martin J. Wade consigned her to federal prison for five years after one of the most stinging arraignments ever delivered from the bench. ? But this abominable utterance was by no means the head and front of this wretched woman’s of- fending. She not only approved the infamous plat- form adopted by the St. Louis convention of the so- cialist party, but she was the CHAIRMAN OF THE COMMITTE WHICH REPORTED THE RESOLU- TION, two of her associates being Victor L. Berger and Morris Hillquit. She was, moreover, associated in the publication of a magazine bearing the signif- icant title, “The Social Revolution,’ which was barred from the mails for seditious utterances; and it was ‘‘Red Kate”’ herself who declared, during the war, that ‘‘we socialists will resist conscription with every force at our command.’’ When called before Judge Wade for sentence, she gloried in the fact that for twenty years she had devoted herself to the task of ‘‘stirring up the people,’’ and it was with reference to her that the Department of Justice wrote Judge Wade as follows: “We * * * have placed her in a class whose hearts and souls, we are morally certain, are for Germany and against our country. Nothing would please this office more than to hear that she got life.”” And this is the woman, tried, convicted and sen- tenced for doing her best during the war to stab her eountry in the back, that President Wilson turns loose once more! If the act were not entirely con- sistent with certain of the president’s previous acts. such as the appointment as a representative of this country of George D. Herron, notorious socialist ex- patriate, and exponent of the doctrine of free love, it would be fairly unbelieveable. * * * * It’s HER CHILD In New York two judges have decided that the ehild of unmarried mother ‘‘belongs’’ to the father. Miss Marie Baco is the mother. The father, Dr. Carl Heidemann, claims possession of the child. Mrs. Heidemann told the court that they would give the child the best care, a home, education, and that she would love the child of another woman as she would her own. Marie Baco is a Cuban girl. She came to the Heide- mann home as a visitor. Mrs. Heidemann learned of her husband’s indiscretion with the pretty Cuban girl and forgave him. The baby was born and Mrs. Heidemann insisted her husband take it from the mother. Miss Baco refused to give up her child. Judge Goff awarded the baby to the Heidemanns. The mother appealed. The highér court confirmed the decision. When Judge Goff decided the father and his wife should ‘care for the child, he made it clear that he did so ‘‘in order that it might thus be surrounded with a proper moral influence.’”’ i In other words, this dispenser of alleged justice professes to believe that it is better for a child to be brought up in the home where the mother was be- trayed, by the man who betrayed its mother, than by the mother who went down into the valley of the shadow of death to give it life! Yes, it is true that the Heidemanns have more dollars than this poor Cuban girl, a nicer home, more to eat, and servants. But, what of that? Is this the way for this man to square matters with society, with the world, with common justice and human decency, to take from the ruined girl-mother her child, cast her out, and hypocritically pretend that he wished to bring up the child in ‘‘proper moral influence?’’ Doesn’t it look to you that the person most of all needing ‘‘ proper moral influence” is this betrayer of girlhood, this father himself? Never a more unjust decision was ever rendered by any court anywhere than this New York judicial robbing of a mother! If that be contempt of court, make the most of it! A judge with an ounce of Solomon’s wisdom would have given that baby to its mother, and would have assured the baby and mother material support by compelling the father of the child to provide for them. There’s justice .in-that | There’s no justice in the Ne wYork court deci- sions. : In common with every other good American, this newspaper entertains a high respect for the great toffice of president of the United States. But there are occasions, and the present is one of them, when it is proper to speak with the utmost distinctness concerning the official acts of. the occupant of that office. Mr. Wilson has not only offered gratutious offense to every man who offered his life for his country, but he has made a farce of the law, a joke of his own Department of Justice, and has set his | name to a document which, in the circumstances, ean only be described as disgraceful.—Pioneer Press.

SartEREIE| D—* SUCHIS LIFE | In. a Campaign Year o BY O. B. JOYFUL A new candidate is in the field! The New,,Third Party, being the| 15th third party formed this year, is elated. This means excitement, a_ wild scramble for office, more coaxing of delegates, and more treats of ice cream sodas, pop, and ginger ale. General Apathy has been brought out of his friends. General Apathy is the war candidate. The New Third 'Party felt the need of a mil- itaryish, candidate, Hence General ‘Apathy. General Apathy is not a favorite son. He’s a national figure. Already one delegate from Spring- feverville has been instructed for General Apathy, and it is predicted that the delegates-at-large from the state of Somnolence will vote for *| amazing showing, an average of about him. ‘General Apathy’s campaign man- ager made a tunning move when he had the general come out flat-footed for the abolishment of alarm clocks. This will garner a large crop of votes from late sleepers. (Editor's Note: We regret not be- ing able to secure a picture of the general, but you can get a fair-sized idea of him by watching a little boy mowing a lawn on a hot day.) Hon. Everett True is still the lead- ing candidate, although he isn’t still. And the mud-slinging report that he has a still isn’t true, either, Mr. True said in a statement issued day be- fore yesterday. Ev slipped something over on the other candidates by gaining the un- divided support of the Amalgamated Dramatic critics, the Anvil Swingers’ union, and the Hammer ‘Makers’ as- sociation. a ee Mrs. Tom Duff announces that she will oppose the boss-contrived plan of running Hon. Tom Duff for the vice presidency. Mrs. Duff says she will go after the suffrage vote to put Tom across and the whoie family into the White House. Mr. Duff could make no comment, Mrs. Duff being present and in a talking frame of mind, This injects the question: Will the Duffs lead a bolt from the convention if Tom isn’t named?

Here is what was found: 1353 had defective sight 546 had ear defects 2214 had enlarged tonsils 1091 had adenoids 4069 had bad teeth. This was in a community that may be said to be fairly typical ot ruraly communities in a large num- ber of our states where there is no medical supervision; or inspection, for schools, and no provisions made to remedy such defects.

As a matter! of fact, none of the defects named in themselves are likely to - cause death, but they certainly are con-| tributing causes. Their particular danger lies in lowering the. bodiiy resistance to disease and actually handicapping the child in his studies and throughout life. It is hardly necessary. to say anything on the subject of bad teeth, defective vision and hearing as handicaps, to the grow- ing child. The enlarged tonsils and adenoids. make nasal jbreathing dif- ficult, or impossible. Healthy ~tonsils also serve as. filters and prevent into the body. When the tonsils are enlarged, or diseased, they do not function properly. The one hopeful sign in this list of defects is that probably each of the defects may be remedied by a competent ply: an and, with the awakening in matters of this kind that seems to be sweeping the coun- try, sufficient funds eventually will be set aside to do the work. Write the Information Editor, United States Public Health Service, Washington, D. C., for the instruz- tiva booklet, “The Road to Health,” Q. I have had neuritis for three years, and do not seem to ‘be bene- fited by any treatment. What shall I dos < “G. ALS. A. The term “neuritis” is rather loosely applied to a number of dii- ferent conditions. In many instances the cause of the trouble is very obscure. If you have not been bene- fited by your physician’s treatment thus far, have him refer you to some} first-class neurologist for advice. Little Wrong Q.

Is this condition anything ser- ious? Would you advise me to have children? ‘Can yougive me the name of a good tonic? “MAXINE.” A. Apparently there ih very little wrong with you, but only a physician could tell you positively whether there is something wrong. It would be fool- ish to take a tonic unless it were pre- scribed for you by’a physician, after a thorough examination, and “after he had decitled that it was needed.

I have used two or three of the widely advertised sage and sulphur preparations for darkening gray hair, but without results. J have not reach- ed' an age where it is becoming to me. and will appreciate very much any advice or prescription. you may give which will have a tendency to darken gray hair. A. One of the widely advertised sage and sulphur preparations for darken- ing gray hair is nothing more than the well-known lead and sulphur for- mula, which has been known for years. Certainly the constant use of lead preparations cannot be regarded as free from danger, and this also ap- plies to certain other substances used as hair dyes. Some years ago the writer saw a very severe case of skin disease re- sulting from the use of a hair lotion. Dyed hair never has the exact hue and luster of naturally tinted filaments, and thus rarely deceives the eye of the observer. The disagreeable color- ing of the scalp, which results from the incautious use of dyes, and the constant liability of irritation of the scalp are also objectionable. Brain Food Q. rlease inform me what foods are classed as “brain foods.” A. There is really no such thing as a “brain food.” Many persons, to be wta'S Next Now, THEN, ¢ 2 ° ES Jie THS TIMES YOU'RG NEXT, DOCTOR, AND L WANT TO GIVE YOU SOME ADVICE IN COUR WAITING ROOM WITHOUT A TABLES FULL OF OLD DOG-EARED MAGAZINGS OF THE VINTAGE OF 1898, So PLEASE GET SOMG OTHER ONES N ITS GLOOMY ENOUGH OT ‘OVER Stx MONTHS OLD!

In substance this statement was as follows: “Fish is regarded as being especial- ly valuable as a brain food. While my investigations do not disprove that fish may nourish the brain, as well as other parts of the body, I am in- clined to believe that the quantity necessary would be a whale for each breakfast.” In building up a tired brain, there is nothing better than attenton to the orainary rules of good living, a suffi- cient mixed diet, fresh air, sunshine, a proper porportion of work, exercise and rest, and freedom from worry. eo THE CITY | | By Edmund Vance Cooke piesa Atrios eal Macrae antes ee) Around me and about me A million mortals rave, And hit their heels And whirl their wheels Against te cobbled pave. ©.
