THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) A CLEAN SAVING The quarterniaster general of the army con- fesses that one branch of the government is mak- ing money. During March, 4,854,891 pieces of clothing and other articles were laundered in government- . owned and operated laundries at a total operating cost, including military and civilian payroll, sup- plies, overhead and incidental expenses, of $126,- 818. The gross receipts to the government for this work amounted to $173,902, resulting in an estimated profit of $47,084. The average cost. of operations was $26.12 per thousand pieces. But, sad to remember, everybody can’t get laundry done by the army! He who asks prices and runs away will have something to spend another day. LUCK _ Much has been written and more said about “luck and pluck,” the oddly assorted twins, But it is true, strangely, that peopie place more emphasis on friend “luck,” than they do on friend “pluck.” Observe carefully the parting words given any- one starting on an exploring expedition into the whys and wherefors of this life. “Good luck to you!” the world!” F < Those are sweet words for the explorer, for they come from the bottom of the hearts and they catry the best wishes and hopes. But neverthe- less one will hotjce there is always that word “luck” included. It is a characteristic of the peo- ple. . It is always: “I wish you all the luck in Clemenceau has told a few things about the making of the treaty, but Colonel House is still still.

We dumped the League of Nations in the Mis- issippi river. We improved the federal service system before we reached Union Center. Junction City flitted by the window while we signed a treaty with Germany. We overruled the supreme court and told the U. S. Steel it was a trust. Incidentally we called for the resignation of the attorney general. In ten miles we gave the people light wine and beer, legislated ouija out of existence, settled the switchmen’s' strike and were about to stabilize in- dustry by the simple process of compelling em- ploye to love employer and vice ver'sa. We beheaded governors as the car jolted thru their states. Long, long before we reached the seaboard we had deported every Red and brought him back again except the one in the seat next to the window, who gave spice and kick to our de- liberations. , For 1,500 miles we ran the nation. I’m sure each of us, as a good American, felt sorry for the nation- when the Pullman Congress adjourned. We had to leave these United States in the same sad pickle that we found them. Too bad, beloved countryman. ’Tis tough! When the women get into politirs, the seledtion of a favorite daughter will be a sort of beauty contest. Wok THE BOY SCOUTS Herbert Hoover, who seems to be a rather un- usual fellow in a good many ways, a sort of peo- ples’ candidate for the presidential nomination, seems sound on other things than food and politi- cal platforms. Herbert is for the Boy Scouts. He is for our kids. He sees into the future and he has seen}Townley’s Leader finds a profane opportunity to what the Boy Scouts of America are doing and have done. Fortunately and happily, Herbert Hoover was one of the guests at the annual din- ner of the Boy Scouts in the east a short time ago. Like other speakers Hoover took occasion to say nice things about the “bunch.” But he went further than that. He touched on one of the biggest of present day American prob- lems, that of one country and one flag, the ce- menting together of those many elements which when fused into the Scout melting pot emerge 100 per cent Americans. This is what Hoover says about the Boy Scouts: “I do not know of any form of Americanization that produces so real an American as the Boy Scout program. I am told there are eight. million Fen tire Wala Devuibevetn ras The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use | 7.20 + 6.00 woman The reply was to hustle the inquirer to the nearest —_____— ] door. Others were chased about the galleries by longer have an Americanization problem.” There must be a lot of dads who would feel that Hoover would be a pretty safe chap to send down to Washington. Anyway, chances are by the way he talks, he’d sort of keep open-house for Boy Scouts! A western widow threw and tied a burglar. This is a new version of the widow’s might. HECKLING HECKLERS Friends of Irish freedom: heckled the Senate thé other day. The Senate got real peeved about it, pushed the woman hecklers out of the senatorial corridors and guarded the doors. “Why not eject the English from Ireland?’’ one shouted at the distinguished lawmakers. doorkeepers, and, finally pushed outside. The Senate went on with its business, but many a senatorial countenance was ruffled in frowns. For distinguished senators don’t like being heckled. On the other hand, however, they are not so opposed to heckling when they may be hecklers. Indeed, they are quite willing to be hecklers in Ireland’s be- half when they may take a whirl at twisting the lion’s tail. The great senatorial sport has been heckling England. Anything the Senate could do, or say, to create a breach between this country and England has been done on the Senate floor, and in committee room: Nowhere else in all the world has England been heckled as often, as thoroughly, as senselessly, as in the United States Senate. So why should the senators feel so peeved about it when a few women heckle the Senate in behalf of Ireland? Can it be that the Senate reserves for it- self all right and privileges of heckling England? Ladies, please don’t heckle the Senate any more, the dear senators don’t like being heckled. They would much rather hecklers themselves. D’Annunzio has lost the center of the state to d’flation. The next big job is to find a way to can the railroad jam. The bootlegger cares not who furnishes the cof- fin if he can furnish the kick. EDITORIAL REVIEW ‘Comments reproduced in this column may or may not express the opinions of The Tribune.

PAUL MA “Jt has not been many years since my wife enjoyed such fine health or felt so well generally as she does since taking Tanlac,” said George BE. Van Doren, a well-known machine designer residing at 294 West Albans St., St. (Paul, Minn., in a statement the other day. “Several years ago my wife suffered’ a general breakdown,” he continued, “and since that time her health has been miserable. She had indigestion so bad that nearly everything she ate soured on her stomach and'caused her to have heavy, nauseated feeling in her chest for hours afterwards. She suffered from constipation and con- stantly had to be taking laxatives. Her nerves were badly upset andglit- tle noises she had always been used to would startle her terrible. She was restless at night, got very little sleep and had lost so much strength and energy that she looked’ like she was almost ready to give up any time. “I spent a lot of money on different medicines and treatments, ‘but every- thing failed until she tried Tanlac. But Tanlac didn’t fail and that is just the reason why her troubles have all left her and she is looking so well and strong today. She does not have to worry over what to eat now, because everything agrees with her and she does not suffer any bad after effects at all. She is free from, constipation and her nerves are so steady she can sleep all night long like a child. Since her troubles have disappeared she is getting back her strength and er rey and. says she is feeling like a different person altogether.” Tanlac is sold in Bismarck by Jos. Breslow, in Driscoll by IN. D: and J. HW. Barrette, in Wing by H. P. Homan, and in Strausburg by Strausburg Drug Co. , Advt. CUT WORNS 0 HOPPERS IN THE SEASON'S FIC Grass hoppers are reported in great quantities throughout the central and southwest portions of the state, but as yet no reports of damage have been recorded, says a bulletin on weather conditions issued today by Orris W. Roberts, United States. weather ob- server. Cut worms also are active in some parts of the state damaging corn and garden products, Mr. Roberts said. While the weather during the past week has been somewhat cool for corn, it was ideal for small grain and -the latter crops made excellent progress, the report says. The past- ures and ranges are improving and offer abundant feed for livestocx. «ractically all of the seeding in the state is completed except flax, which probably will all be in by June 15. Red Trail Good “Road conditions are excellent be- tween Beach and Bismarck, on the Red Trail,” said Mr. Roberts, “They are generally in good condition be- tween Bismarck and Jamestown. e- tween Valley City and Jamestown they are somewhat rough. Between Valley City and Bluff short detours are neces- sary because of bad roads. “Tourists reaching the city yester- day from Fargo report the roads im- passible between Fargo and Detroit, Minn., being especially bad in the vicinity of Lake Park: It is suggest- ed that ourists to the east make care- ful inquiry at Fargo regarding the ‘best route to take east.
