THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) Ra a CUSTOM MAKES RIGHTS Father had a caller, so it was Mother who car- ried Baby up to bed. And that made Baby howl, and Mother’s feelings were hurt. They should not have been. The howls do not mean that Mother was less beloved than Father. They do mean that a baby—or any other human being or animal either—does not merely want to have its physical wants supplied—to be fed or played with or put to bed—it feels the identity of persons and things and places, and it does not want its relations to them changed, unless the old relations have been unpleasant. If Father has carried it up to bed in the past, then Father must do it now and Mother will not do, just as Father might not do to undress it or give the parting good-night kiss. And in the same way it will not do for Baby to be put n strange bed or to be undressed in some new way. Thus the baby’s howls are a protest against the disturbance of established relations, such as Father himself might raise if someone, suddenly turned him out of his house or took away his, wife, but said that he could have another “just as good.” Custom makes expectatioss and the rage that comes when these are disappointed is the surest defense of homes and families and all human rights. SENTIMENT FOR PARKS Judging from the expression in favor of a park system for Bismarck, sentiment need not be created here for this urgent adjunct to com- munity life. Of course, it is impossible to do So Somebody poked a hole in the sugar bag. Reverend Jonathan Mee of Ottumwa, Iowa, has performed 1111 ceremonies which made “we” of “me and ‘you.” There are still some people in Ireland who are not prejudiced, but who dislike oranges, un- less they are green. When houses are built with the avidity with which people build motor cars, the housing sit- uation will be relieved. Harding will win many votes on his assertion that, if he is-elected, the Baker, Daniels, Burle- ‘00 | Son type of cabinet will be thrown into the dis- card. EDITORIAL REVIEW Comments reproduced in’ this column may or may not express the opinions of The Tribune. meyers Bre sented here in order vhat our readers may have both sides of important issues which are being discussed im the press of the day. ’ SENATOR DIXON’S STRENGTH . Senator Dixon, republican candidate for gov- ernor, is going to have the business interests of Montana back of him. During the primary cam- paign he was backed by the Montana Development League, and to that organization more than to any other ig due the credit for his victory in the first election. : Since his nomination various business inter- ests have declared for him. He has the backing of the banks, the mercantile houses, the elevators, in fact every business industry looking to the betterment and the advancement of Montana. Heretofore the Anaconda Mining Company, the greatest business industry of the state, has been with the Democratic candidates for governor. Evidently it has switched this year and will be}; found back of Senator Dixon, as is shown by the following editorial from the Anaconda Standard, the official organ of that company, of last Satur- day: “Brought about through a primary system that so permits the theft of a party name and thwarts the will of the people that it is at once ‘a tragedy and a tarce, the results of Tuesday’s voting bring Montana face to face with the NorthgDakota species of bolshevism. There are those who'enjoy the prospect. There are others who do not. ‘It is inconceivable that a majority of the people of Montana are rejoicing over the possibility of the anything immediately, but it will cost no money introduction’of the wild theories and rash fancies nor increase the tax budget to get prepared. The citizens in general and the Commercial club in particular have started the ‘ball rolling, * and nothing but civic indifference can retard the campaign for a park system. Some way should be found so that by next summer at least a mu- nicipal swimming pool could be provided and a wading pool for the small children. These can be established near Custer park and that little area seeded to grass and made presentable. This would be a beginning and, the value of recreation centers once demonstrated, the people will demand more. No one expects a complete system of parks in one year or five. It must be a gradual and intelligent plan and tempered to suit the financial exigencies of the city, but we can at least begin in a small way arid now is the time to start the preliminaries. / Mexico. still seems to be a garden spot for plots. Treland of the Ballad is not the Ireland of the Bomb. Maybe the fellow who gets no vacation has an advantage after. all. Some folks will never catch up with their sleep until they set the clocks back again. For Harding’s information: There’s a porch on the White House but they call it a portico. New Yorkers say the Brooklyn street car strike is cruel if it serves to keep the inmates in. Mustapha Kemal Pasha is sick from worry, up- setting the Reet that Turks never worry. Hiding murdered persons in trunks seems to be a snappy development of the 1920 crime styles. The hotel Bill, the railroad Fare and the Bill o’ Fare make home look pretty good to the vaca- tionist. ener esr) Some say Burleson might make a first class postmaster but is a fourth class postmaster gen- eral, Culture is a difference ih shade. London and that characterize the government of their sister state. “The radical elements, growing more and more combative and less and less tolerant of brother- hood and fair play to all legitimate interests, have combined in mass action for the purpose of win- ning a victory for its own sake, the fruits that go with it and the opportunity it will give them of inflicting upon the state a political system at war with American traditions, institutions and ideals. “As between the Democratc and Republican parties there are wide differences of opinion, but unquestionably both are seeking the same end, though by different means and methods, that end being the safety, honor and welfare of the people. But the radicals, seeking to pose as Democrats in one state and as Republicans in another, are neither one nor the other in reality, but avowedly and bitterly hostile to both, stealing wherever possible the organization of each to use it as a stepping stone to whatever tyrannical dominance may strike their fancy and satisfy their greed for power. “Let the people of Montana investigate and study conditions in North Dakota and see how they like them. There is plenty of time between now and the second day of November to get a line on North Dakota’s affairs of state.”—Big Timber (Mont.) Pioneer. . RELIGIOUS PREJUDICE The present state political campaign promised to be bitter enough without injecting religion into it. But that has been done—not by the I. V. A.’s or those opposed to Townleyism or Socialism (same thing) but by the North Dakota Tindende, a Norwegian language weekly published in con- nection with and by the Grand Forks American, the Nonpartisan daily paper of Grand Forks. Since' when does a man’s religious beliefs debar him from running for or holding public office in this state? Since when has it become fashion- able to brand a man as a fit associate of liars, intimidators, hypocrites and whatnot on account of his religious views or membership in a religious order? Why was this dirty attack on an honor- able man printed only in the Norwegian language and, perforce, circulated only among the people of that race? Why wasn’t it printed in English, in German, or in French and circulated through- out the state if it was such good dope? Why was Browning are associated memories, but so are, it conceived and brought forth in the office of a Philadelphia and Reading. | Publication that professes to shed real tears over The news that Baron Wrangel has captured the key to the Russian coal basin doesn’t thrill you as it would if he had the key to your coal basement. Babe-Ruth has: given away a score of bats to be auctioned for various benevolences. but betcher life he hasn’t given away the bludgeon he really uses for these homers. the unhappy and downtrodden farmer? Did the author of that “gem” really think the Norwegian people were so ignorant as not to be able to dis- tinguish between politics and religion, between honor and dishonor? It would seem so. But we think a dirty attack like that, which is an insult to the intelligence of every Scandinavian in the state, will meet the contempt it deserves.—North Dakota Eagle. eta ed la. ea ae, «Produce Co. ‘Boss Murphy —‘We should worry: about Wilson’s League of Nations , so long as we gits the U.

Robin birds together mated By some sympathy they know; Heart to heart in strong ties wedded, Two as one for aye united, More devoted still to grow; Drawing each to each more closely By the subtle cords of love, Than the elfin spirits ghostly In their fairyland above. Up beneath the shading cornice Of the porch before the door; There their rustic home or nest is There have been two years or more, Thence by chill winds driven thither To the Southland warm and fair, Their’s not love. to shrink or wither; Their’s not hope to feel despair. Whep discovered it was only Part constructed, rough and rude, Yet how cunningly and swiftly And how certain and exactly T’was completed weil and good; Were it rocked by storms of winter Till a breach came in its ‘side, First replaced was every splinter At their coming to abide. Thence from time to time returning From the garden or the hill; She within the nest walls hiding, He the meantime close abiding On the nearest window sill, Fixed there as if sense of duty, Indescribable in letters, { Or some all enchanting beauty Him enchaned in mystic fetters. Soon a flutter and a whirring And the shadows flitting pass. Of two objects quick and stirring And but slight the vision blurring, ‘Thrown in streamlets on the grass, And the nest is quite deserted And the window sill is bare, Yet their care is not averted From four eggs close nested there. ’Mongst the leafy boughs outreaching O’er the ledge across the way, Many birds in chorus ringing, Are their richest notes in singing In‘one grandest roundelay; And those robin birds in clearest Notes distinct above the rest, Show their joy is full, completest, for the eggs within the nest.

Ce =< The Question: Would it be possible for a woman to carry typhoid fever germs in her system eight years after recovering trom. typhoid, and communicate ty- phoid fever to people who buy milk from her after eight years? I am ‘laskifg because my neighbor, who is scrupulously clean, has been selling me milk for over a year; The milk is rich and seems all right. Recently two of her patrons had typhoid fever, in fact, have it now. The Health Department inquired where these patients were getting their milk, and immediately, investi- gated my neighbor, and upon learn- ing that she had had typhoid eight years ago, forbade her seNing any more milk until they could make suitable tests. The woman accepts the health board’s decree in.good faith, because she says she does’ not want to en- j danger her own family, but I do not j believe ‘this is the source of conta- gion, and would like to-know for my own information. It seems far-fetched to me. The Answer: In reply to your inquiry, you are advised that it is not only possible, but quite common tor patieuts who have recovered from typhoid fever to continue the carrying of the germs of typhoid fever in their system. I have ‘personally known of an in- + stance in which a dairy farmer con- tinued to harbor typhoid bacteria in his system 4 years after having re- covered from typhoid fever. During that time, he had unwittingly been the cause of repeated typhoid infec- tions in the village where he sold milk. My attention was directed to him] through an outbreak of typhoid fever in New York City, embracing several ; hundred cases of typhoid fever among eee EVERETT TRUE ARRAS users of a particular supply of raw milk, The condition is now well under- stood, and those who harbor typhoid bacilli long after convelescing from the disease, are spoken of as “typhoid bacillus carriers.” There is an ex tensive literature on this subject, and you may be able to find some refer- ence to this subject in your local li- brary. . The Question: My father has been troubled for several years with ulcers on the leg. ‘They heal for a short time, and then break open. Sometimes they do ‘not swell for a month. Can you tell me what to do? The Answer: } It is not possible to say definitely what is the trouble with your father’s legs. Your description is very des- criptive of varicose ulcers, a condi- tion which is very common in per- sons of advanced years. The treat- ment of varicose ulcers, while not particularly difficult, is sometimes a very tedious affair. Rest in bed, in which the horizontal position of the legs helps the circulation, is often ef great value. It is suggested that you discuss the matter frankly with your family physician, and, if necessary, have him refer you to some specialist for consultation. The Question: What can be done for near-sighted- ness? ou give me the name of some medicine to make the pupils smaller? The Answer: remedy for nearsighted- consists in the wearing of While there are remedies ase the size of the pupil of should be given only whi bed by a physician. It is, very gerous to tamper with medicines, ich change the size of the pupil. By all means ask your physician to give you the name of a reputable eye specialist whom you may consult. By Condo The only ness two people, could be operated for half the cost of two automobiles hauling the same number of passengers. The result was that Figg and Miss Strauss recently have used one automobile almost exclusively, and Miss Strauss’ snappy roadster, with the two depart- mental experts demonstrating this ! Washington, 11.—Howard Sept. Figg and Miss Edith Strauss, who a3 generals in the Cost-of-Living fight of the department of justice have been telling folks generally what they should eat and wear in order to bring down the prices of necessities, may soon get a new slant on the domestic problems of the nation. For Figg and Miss Strauss are to be married. Questions heretofore dealt with in theory must . soon be solved in practice. It is to be hoped that the public will not, with their marriage, lose the benefit of their services in further reducing the cost of living. Some means should be ar- ranged by which it would be possible for the domestic economies resulting from their union to be presented for the guidance of the whole country. +e It is said that one of the interest- ing discoveries of the couple, which served to draw them together, was the fact that one automobile, hauling method of reducing the of auto- ing, has been a familiar sight on Washington boulevards. ‘ Tf in ‘other ways they are able to vrove the old adage that “two can live as cheaply as one,” they should not, in their new matrimonial happi- ness, withhold the recipe from the rest of us. Their marriage should, indeed, qualify them ‘to serve more efficiency as cost-of-living experts than ever before. * E. H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel Corporation, is a great movie fan. Not that Gary goes often to the movies. He doesn’t. But he believes that movie audiences provide about the best cross-section of the public that can be found in any pub- lic gathering-place, and that the viewpoint of a movie audience is ths safest index as to the viewpoint of the public generally. During the recent steel strike Gary is said to have ordered a close watch kept on movie shows to seethe drift of public sentiment. Particularly was he interested in the comparative applause that would follow when pic- tures of himself and of Samuel Gam- pers of W. 2. Foster were thrown upon the screen. * JUST JOKING 1 ee ee ee en EK? The Workless Worker. The White Collar Man—A skilled worker, are you? Where are tools?
