F. T. O'Connor at the Auditorium Monday evening and everyone who believes in restoring a representative form of government in this state should be there to hear the issues of the cam- paign discussed. ) Those who have been inclined to favor Town- ley’s utopia should also attend this rally and hear the other side of the argument. It is hoped \house, moves in and laughs at landlords. that many farmers in Burleigh county can be present. Mr. O’Connor is one of the best speakers of the state and he has been discussing the issues of the campaign in a vigorous fashion free from all personalities. He has served two sessions in the legislature under the league regime and is well qualified to discuss the kind of soviet government under which the state.is ‘operating. Burleigh county should give O’Connor a rous ing reception. This is the first political rally held in Bismarck since the women received the fran- chise. : Let’s make it a real rally in celebration of that event!

I-BOOKS The new library assistant was endeavoring to! good literature. She showed him “Robinson Crusoe,” “David Copperfield” and “Treasure Island.” The child opened each haphazardly, gave onz glance, and rejected it. “But why?” asked the surprised assistant. “T don’t like I-books,” was the answer. Then the assistant realized that these three masterpieces were all told in the first person. Librarians report that this child is typical. Children reject, I-books as a rule, if left to their own volition. Perhaps they have somewhat the same feeling toward them that Mr. Dooley had towards Theo- dore Roosevelt’s book on the Spanish war, when that Hibernian philosopher re-entitled it “Alone in Cuby.” It is pretty hard for the I-book to repress the over-accentuated ego. Then there is another reason. Children love romance and adventure, danger and daring, even guide the youthful applicant into the paths of WILL ROGERS (HIMSELF) Jokes by ROGERS as debate they got the matter] the half century of history in the making of which j,and voted a law making it} he has had so large a;part.

If the book begins “I am about to tell of my wonderful adventures in which I,” etc., the child cries, “Shucks! here you are, sounds as a drum, sitting up and telling about it. Not a chance for you to be rended limb from limb anywhere in the|’ book !” So the child turns to some good, gory story, told in the third person, in which there is at least an outside chance that the author may \not pull his hero safely through to the last chapter.

A small payment down gets a good building lot, often large enough for garden, berries and chick- ens. The buyer builds a neat double garage at a cost cf a few hundred dollars, divides it with tem- porary partitions into two or three rooms, puts in the plumbing fixtures he intends to use later in a Havng started thus on the road to home own- ership, the garage-residence is an incentive to economies. The quicker the first little debt is paid off, the sooner will the desired modern res- idence on the front of the lot be a reality. The idea is a good one and allotment firms are likely to quickly take it up and put on the market whole subdivisions with garages erected, ready for occupancy unt] the day when the house can be built.

THE COUNTRY SCHOOL TEACHER | | BY A FARMER'S WIFE ARE WE USING HER FAIR? | | | It has always been a task to keep al school teacher in our neighborhood,! and I have been wondering if the fault lies with the teacher or with us. Are| we not too insistent that she concur} with what we think is right, and leave her own opinions entirely out of the matter? Do we expect her to manage our children or do we intend for our chil- dren to manage’her If she corrects them should we put in our oar in fa-} vor of the child, We know that we must correct our| ‘children when they are home, then how can we expect a teacher to get along with ours: and about a dozen other children without using the same methods? The school” ‘teacher is} neither an angel nor the opposite; she} is a very human being, and wants to do what. is right, and she appreciates | constructive criticism, as ‘well as! praise;\ but for us to find fault indis- | criminately is neither fair nor just. When your child comes home with a long tale of woe, do not “fly all to pieces” and condemn the teacher with- out a hearing. Remember, children are prone to exaggerate, and what to them seems to be a mountain may prove to be a mole hill, and a small one at. that.

C., Oct. 2—The hardest-worked man in Washington is John Kramer, prohibition enforce- ment commissioner. His friends have observed that there are more lines in his face than there were when he took his. present job. He has been working almost night and day trying to put John Barley- corn’s shoulders to the mat since the inception of prohibition. ‘Then he has had upon him the great burden of gonstructing the Volstead act, in determining who could ~have permits,to obtain rum for lawful pur- poses, and it is telling upon him.
