North Dakota must realize more poignantly than ever the kind of management to which its government is intrusted following the latest Lemke-Townley-Brinton-Waters expose. None of the parties to the controversy retire with any credit. It is just a sample of political laundering which while not particularly edifying from any standpoint is typical of the way the'so- viet regime operates. The anti-Townley organization is interested in the fracas only because in many ways, the ex- posure merely substantiates the charges made by Langer, Hall and Kositzky in their campaign against the entire organization, Brinton and Wa- ters included. ‘After columns of political scandal and intrigue are sifted, the net conclusion is that the nonpar- tisanleague pie counter has shrunk a little and that Brinton and his associates slipped off the end seats. It is the moth-worn story of the political flesh pots. Loyalty in league circles seems to start with the dollar sign. Certain gentlemen who were manipulating the political cash register have been supplanted by other experts on that machine, The same little bell tinkles out its periodic touches, but the coin drops into other pockets—that is, the jobs that once were Brinton’s and Waters’ are now held by Lemke, Cathro and their associates. The whole affair. simmers down to one of po- litical -head-hunting. One faction demands the scalps of Lemke and Cathro, while Lynn J. Fra- zier, who is an absolute dictator under the indus- trial commission law, refuses to decapitate his faithful henchmen, among whom is “Bill” Lemke. The, organizations which have been fighting Townleyism can have little interest in the affair from a political standpoint. As far as the inde- pendent voters.are concerned, the defection of Brinton and Waters is merely a squabble over pa- tronage. The motives which actuated both par- ties in the exposure are too evident for comment here. When the ghouls quarrel over the spoils, just men may get their dues, but the voters who have been fighting the red menace in North Da- kota for the last four years are not going to the Brinton faction for,a Moses. This exposure may be the first batch of dirty linen to ‘be publicly exposed. We may expect a fresh washing on the line frequently from now un- til the fall campaign. “DON’T HAVE TO” In an essay entitled “Is Life Worth Living?” William James asked: “What can be said to help a man to whom life is such a nightmare that he feels on the verge of suicide?” His answer is that the man will begin to get re- lief when you convince him that he is free to kill himself if he wants to. For when anyone once realizes that he does not have to live, much of the burden of life is lifted, and he is willing to post- pone the day of death until after he has read the news in tomorrow’s paper. He can live and en- dure things because he doesn’t have to. The principle applies in many ways. A thirteen- year-old boy is absorbed in his own affairs and when his mother asks him to mail a letter he stamps around in rage at the interruption, for he feels that he has to give up his own grand schemes to do the trivial errand. But when his mother says “It is all right, boy; I thought you could do it on the way to school, but I can do it myself this evening” he fedls ashamed and wonders why he raged. He doesn’t have to do it, and it seems a very trivial favor. He’d have done it for anybody else with pleasure. The boy is beginning to organize life for him- self, but he has the habit of obedience, which makes every request from his mother seem like an intruding have to. He bursts out in a spirit of rebellion. But give him a chance to learn that no one is trying to boss him, and it won’t be very long before he will work his fingers off for that same little mother and rejoice at the opportunity. “Don’t have to” is on the road between “Have to” and “Want to.” A barrage of cigaret smoke by the Turks doesn’t. keep the Greeks back!

EDITORIAL REVIEW: Comments reproduced in this column may or may not express the opinions of The Tribune, They are peer sented here in order vhat our readers may have both aides of important issues which gre being discussed in the press of the day. gf FOSSIL RELICS OF AGES The first forms: of fli lg neared on thig earth 45,140,000 years ago, aecordit i g to Dr. Charles D. Walcott of the Smithgonfan Institution, who has just discovered several thousand fossils that con- tradict all previous deductions. | The find was madé/in the Burgess pass fossil quarry, discovered in ‘1910 in the Canadian Rock- ies, about 3,000 feet above Field, British Columbia. Professor Walcott has taken annual parties into this district, says the Detroit News, blasting fos- sils out of what is known as the Cambrian rocks. When the large slabs were blasted loose they were split with chisel and hammer. and fossils of ani- mals were exposed that were, in life, softier than the jelly-fish. The shale bed suggests that the waters of the ancient Cambrian sea swarmed with life, just as the ocean does today at Santa Catalina Island. But this was long before the advent of fish! on earth and no trace of fish is found among the fossils. The find upsets the theory that in’ the proter- ozic age only one-celled amebe, etc., existed on the earth. Instead of only unicellular animals, there were actual swimming and crawling water forms of animals already dominant. : Professor Walcott estimates that fossils of these animals were engulfed about 27,640,000 years ago. He adds to this figure 17,500,000 years during which these, and other creations were evolving from each other in thé prepalezoic period. —San Francisco Chronicle. | A FRANK CONFESSION WANTED — NONPARTISAN high school teacher and one for 7th and 8th grades. Only Normal graduates will be considered. State qualifications, experience and salary in first letter. T. G. Glesne, Clerk, Ber- gen, N. D. —Want Ad in Sunday’s Courier-News. At least Mr. T. G. Glesne, the clerk of the school board at Bergen is tobe commended for his frank- ness. teh He believes that the way to get a “Nonpartisan high school teacher” is'to advertise for one. He believes that if the Socialist gang is going to turn the schools of the state into a political ma- chine, the way to do it is openly. He doesn’t believe in beating about the bush. “Catch ’em young” is evidently Mr. Glesne’s mot- to. He has no foolish notions about “keeping the schools out of politics.” It is surprising that he does not prescribe some religious qualifications for the new teacher, also. And what about the curriculum of the Bergen high school? Will copies of the Nonpartisan Leader be used as a textbook? For a course in English, they doubtless would prescribe a study in the Courier-News editorials clipped from the Wisconsin State Journal of Madison. For the “major” course in ethics, they might prescribe Mr. Waters’ well known formula of how a banker should act when he is embarrassed with too much worthless paper—‘“shoot it to the other league banks”—or might even use as the motto for the ethics class, Mr. Townley’s famous advice to “go home and lie like a horsethief.” The class in Americanism could study the re- ports of Mr. Townley’s trial for seditious conspir- acy.**** The class in finance could study the methods by which Mr. William Boycott Lemke acquired a newspaper and a_- string: of stores by being a “friend of the farmer.” * * * * * “In: advertising for “Nonpartisan high school teachers”, this school board clerk is merely carry- ing on the work of dragging our schools through the political mire. There is just one way to defeat the plan, and that is at the polls. If the voters haven’t lost their capacity for indignation, they will surely resent this brazen attempt to make our school system a political machine, and to introduce Socialistic teachings into the schook:curriculum. ** * *_Fargo Forum; Se SATURDAY, AUGUST 14, 1920 Finish Fight Is Expected—the Two Baseball Teams Are In to Win, They Say. Extra! State Auditor's __ office makes vicious attack on Bank of North Dakota! Nope, its not politics—just base- ball.

As a precaution an adding machine was_on. the field this afternoon, because there were some of the men who played the oth- er evening who believe they. were cheated out of a dozen runs or so. The Best Base Runner. The game abounded in spectacular plays. None was more remarkable than this. There was a man on first and a man on second. “The batter drove a vicious clout to right field. The two base runners started. The man on first was faster than the man on..second and -he beat. him to third. ‘So the base runner, who had been on second turned around and ran back ‘to second. | “Everybody’s safe,” yelled the umpire. « Auditor Carl Kositzky who, bythe way, is an old ball player,. got into the game.

In addition to strict attention to the child’s diet, avoiding carefully the use of hot bread, cakes, sweets, corn, pies, nuts and pancakes men- tioned by you, due attention should be paid to the correction of any physical defect from which the child may be suffering, such as diseased tonsils and adenoids. 1 A child should have sleep in a well-ventilated hours’ room each 24 hours, and allowed to play out of doors in the sunshine as much as possible.

A child of two years should have from one to two bowel actions each day. ‘If suffering from constipation, green vegetables enum- erated in the list, together with fruits, will frequently overcome this condition. Furthermore, the child should be encouraged to attempt 2 bowel movement at the same hour regularly each day, thereby cultiva:~ ing the habit of regularity which will naturally lessen the tendency to con- stipation. ture of about 50 degrees F. j > Very cold milk should never ‘b GES given to the child, and if necessary this might be warmed before feed- ing, especially in cases of very young children, ‘The child should receive food in proportion in which the different food elements are to be found in mother’s milk; namely, protein 1.5 per cent, fat 3.5 per cent, carbohy- drate (sugar and starches) 6.5 per cent, salt 0.2 per cent, other constit- uents 0.6 per cent, water 87.7 per cent. The amount of food required. of course, will vary with the age of the child: ‘ Fruit juices, especially the juice of oranges'‘and strained tomato juice, are essential articles of diet from the standpoint of scurvy prevention. ‘In all cases where the child is given pastuerized, heated or condensed milk, the juice of oranges or toma- toes should be given in proportion of one to two teaspoonfuls a day.
