And, instead) of burning it, selling it. For the ragman, these days, is paying good prices for paper waste. The shortage in newsprint, that has run up the price so that when it can be purchased at all it is at a rate perhaps, 400 per cent higher than a few years ago, is such that many of the smaller newspapers of the country have been forced to suspend. More than two million tons of waste paper are used annually for boxes and shipping containers. This use of waste paper saves over a billion feet of lumber. ; : In an appeal to the public—the housewife and the business man—to save paper, Secretary of Commerce Alexander says that many of our bet- ter grades of waste paper are used as pure, sub- stitutes for ground wood pulp and are used in making all kinds of book, bond, ledger and writ- ing papers. t NOT BREAD ALONE One of, the reasons persons cannot live on bread alone is because of the ‘severe milling process through which white flour is put before it be- comes bread. , The mineral salts and neutralizing substances found in the hulls and outer coating of the wheat are eliminated. -\ \ f An eminent dietitian recently said that the rea- son worms are seldom found in high grade flour is because the worms cannot find enough varie- ties of food in it to live. On the other hand, bran i] and whole wheat flours have to'be watched pret- i ty closely to keep the worms out. Instinct teaches. worms where the food is. What luck would a person have living on starch alone? That’s what living on bread alone means, literally; if it is the white fluffy kind. \ Dr. Harvey Wiley, while connected with the government tried to reform the flour industry: But it is doubtful whether this can be done until more women know the value of whole wheat and|- demand better food qualities in the flour. In the meantime, there are just two things that Dr. Wiley, or any other dietitian, wouldn’t want to be, to-wit, a white flour weevil or a Bolshevik locked in an American jail. Who ever sawia fat weevil or a corpulent bread-fed jail bird? ; MENTAL CLINICS ° i Language often reveals the history of;thought. To say that some one was “possessed” implied that he was inhabited and controlled by some for- eign being, perhaps a devil; to say that he was “touched” implied a smaller amount of the same { : foreign influence; and to say that he had “lost his mind” left, one about as hopeless for his future as if he had lost his soul. When people believed in “possession”. they loaded the victims with chains, and often ‘tor- tured them to drive out: the devil; when they:be- lieved in “lost” minds they, put the losers in asy- lums”—places of- refuge where they were safe and harmless)and stayed indefinitely. To well-informed people today nobody is \lit- erally, “possessed,” though the word remains; no one is moonstruck, as the name “lunatic” implies ; and no one “loses” his mind, however badly it ey may be injured. And so ‘the “mad -house” and the “lunatic asylum” have given place to the “in- sane hospital,” a place for the care and cure’ of those who are in bad mental health. But that is not enough. Mental disease is in- -creasing, and many people who need advice or treatment without custodial care do not like to seek it in a place devoted wholly to mental cases. So regular hospitals are establishing mental clin- ics, to which one can go as he would go to any _ other part of the hospital. without fear of dis- i grace. Nothing could be better. / Timely advice may save a later disaster, and it ‘is worth much to get rid of minor mental ills, like bad recurring dreams or foolish fears of hatreds, which keep a person wretched. 4 2 CRIMINAL YOUTH ; In New York City 1500 boys and girls under 16 get into court every year as delinquent. A medi- cal investigator, Dr. Sanger/ Brown,’ has tried to find out why, and he shows how easy it is for a i child to become a criminal if there is anything about him that makes it hard for him’ to fit in with others. To have “got in bad” with parents or teachers ocr feel disgraced before his natural playmates ily drives a boy to thewompanionship of other “outlaws,” and when he is once in such a gang at BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE \. ‘enough to insure) food, clothes, etc. innocent mischief to lead on to serious offenses, as petty thieving may lead to burglary. But what gets a child “in bad” in the first place? i A third of Dr. Brown’s cases had nervous symp- toms—they were :sleep-walkers, overactive, _list- less or emotionally unstable. Often there was a pressure of activity which kept them wearing themselves out. Or they were irritable and quar- relsome. Or they had fears and anxieties,: and perhaps they stammered. Or possiblly they had merely been kept from learning how to play. with other children, or there was something about their clothes or their homes and parents that they were ashamed pi. \ Anything that makes a child a laughing stock or a nuisance in a school where things have to go by rule, anything which makes him oversensitive, is enough to destroy his self-respect; and. when that is gone he feels that he may as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb, and is glad to be with oth- ers as bad as himself, who will not despise him. The way to treat such delinquents is to find and remove the cause of the original nervousness or whatever it may be that makes them seem “different,” and to restore their self-respect. ON THE PORCH The old family hearth of song and story has been replaced by the furnace radiator, but long live the Great American Front Porch! It’s the family summer altar upon which, of an evening, the folks lay down all the day’s trouble and try their best to be cheerful. : It must: be that. good ‘angels hover about porch- es. No doubt, there have been family quarrels at hearths. But who ever heard of a family quarreling on a porch? 3 \ \ But, maybe, there are no quarrels on porches because porches are wide open and the neigh- bors could hear every word. And that is just why it makes an ideal family altar. It brooks no concealment. It is the show window of family life. A man can’t scold his wife on the front-porch and get, away with it among his neighbors. Nor can a wife nag her husband and hold her repu- tation as a woman of sweet disposition. So the front porch brings out the good that’s in all folks, while the cross word, 'the frown and the angry\ scowl are kept’ inside. The well-known function of the front porch as a courting place requires no extended remarks. But the porch has never been given the credit that is due it as a great American forum upon which neighbors get together in the cool of a sum-| the infested person, but may even be mer’s evening and exchange notes about the weather until one of them asks: “Well, who do you think will be our next president?” And that starts a debate that doesn’t end until 10:30 p. m., involving, as. it does, vast problems of politics, economics and foreign relations. So God bless the front porch—sanctuary of neighborliness and friendliness; altar of all that is sweet in family life; show place for all our best qualities! “AMERICANIZATION” He is a peasant from Europe. From southwestern Europe, a land of conglom- erated peoples hard for America to understand. Hard for this peasant to understand America, too. , ! No wonder. | First place, he calls himself a peasant, which no American would do. He knows no language save his own and he cannot read that. ‘ So here he is in America, with a wall around him. : No outlet. No inlet. j No way to obtain information to get in touch with American spirit, to keep in march with events. He has a job. { \ Oh, yes. No trouble about that. Good job, too, as jobs'go. ‘ Big factory. Fair hours. Wages \- But what then? “Man does not live by.bread alone.” No truer words ever spoken, even by the Great Speaker who said them. 3 a Our peasant doesn’t like America. He is' disappointed, ‘disillusioned, disheartened. He is meat for the bolshevists. , Not that he likes bolshevism more, but he likes America less. The other day somebody got next to him and asked-him why.. E : “What’s the trouble between you and Ameri- ca?” ‘A Our peasant pondered a long time. He thought of his farm work back in the old, old.country. He remembered each animal he tended as a personal friends. He thought of the little village, where he knew every stick and stone. He thought of the public house and the long, jolly talks—whole libraries of conversation. He thought of the vil- lage girls, strong, decent young women, one of whom he might hope to marry some day. He thought again of his work there, hard work, but it was doing something, something he understood. At last he answered, saying: “Tt isn’t home!” H Why not make America home to every inhab- itant, native and foreign born? it B iad 2 The greater man the greater courtesy.—Ten- nyson. | | .odds with the World about it, it is easy for rather ES ea Ee ulation, of ‘their industries, of their number of graveyards. t exults the Washington Times. ones stored in the capitel! rae ie al expert, “is found in the sap of ‘near- ly 200 trees and plants. nearly 200 trees and plants. * oe * fined a young woman beneath the heart. did the serenading,” he said, “but now the girl TEACH CHILDREN CITIZEN'S DUTY IN THE SCHOOLS Educator Outlines Method Used at Evansville, Ind., Schools \ in Talk to Experts T HEY’RE OFF! ee 4 f ‘ Salt Laké City,, Utah, July 7—~ Duties of citizens are taught Evans- (ville, Ind., school, children by, first, studies in governmental theory in the grades and second, application of the . : -theories in a student self government z, : in the high school, L. P: Benezet, sup- erimtendent of Bvansville schools, said obs in a talk at, the National Education Association convention here last night. Reduction of Hallowe'en damage was one tangible result of the first lesson which dealt with ;destructipn of property, Mr. Benezet declared. ‘The lesson given.late in October, just . before Hallowe’en and, police records : showed, the loss was one-fifth that of previous years, u Lessons in the, grades deal with cur- rent events, he said. One was taken | from the Boston police strike, another from the Russian soviet government while other brought out duties of citi- zens in the face of threatened epi- demics, with ‘the necessity for in- | creased production apd elimination of waste and extravagance. “Lessons are given every week in ‘g the grades,” Superintendent Benezet said. “They furnish the basis for dis- cussion by the pupils of the rights and wrongs’ of many problems affecting their school life. The teachers read statements regarding various cases and then ask the pupils questions to encourage discussions. Free expres- sion is always sought from the pupils and independent thinking encouraged. Courses in civics are also given in the grades. “During the first year in high school, pupils. are required to take’ two courses,-one in elementary social sci- ence, invglving -morals.:.and manners, x and the second in, ‘The Vocations.’ | ‘ 2 Sarena This latter course teaches children es the science of making a ‘living. ~ : - ~ 2 “Under the student self government > (4 ios AAR scheme, children are\given an oppor- HEALTH ADVICE a ae eee ener ane appeared onthe acon Harrigan—An’ what do you tunity to put into practice what they ichiir "By 1817 the world wagged to a life| | Mrs. Horrigan-—t go right to wor-| Nonor'room, to which students wero! | BY UNCLE 8AM, M.
