This is a musical event as of much importance of its kind as the Symphony orchestra. A few years ago the Welsh singers played to capacity at the Auditor- ium. This year, however, owing to the short time the committee had to prepare for the event, it was. impogsible to canvass the city. The Welsh singers are coming here to appear in a benefit concert for'the Bismarck Public Li brary, an institution worthy of the-most loyal support. More money for the purchase ‘of new books is needed than can be secured through the city budget. Besides hearing an excellent pro- gram, the people of Bismarck will be assisting in a good cause by attending the concert. Show the Bismarck spirit Saturday evening and give the Welsh singers a rousing reception. PUNCH THE BAG A noted English physician, who has specialized in.the treatment of nervous diseases, believes lib- eral and frequent doses of the punching bag would do good.’ This wise doctor advises nervous patients to get rid of temper by hitting the bag, rather than beating up the wife,. slapping the child, or kick- ing’the cat. It is a fine idea! Makes. for more pleasant: home atmosphere, and does more toward the building up of appetite and physical strength than’ the old-fashioned method of blackening an- other’s eye, or breaking out a few teeth. ‘If the dinner is not done on time, or under- done, or overdone, don’t “jaw” at the cook; punch the:bag. . If Willie’s noise gets the better of your nerves, punch the bag., If house bills are too high, don’t blame the wife; punch the bag. Install a portable punching bag in the home. Then. when the family notes the first rise of temper they may roll the punching apparatus into the room and leave you alone with it. It-is, as the doctor asserts, splendid for the health—especially the health of the family. THE WAFFLE RECORD ® John Paul Jones placed himself high upon the | roll of fame by his gallant conduct upon the high | seas. That great admiral gave considerable pub- licity: to the name of Jones in this country, and others, not to make mention of the oceans over which he lorded it. It became almost second na- ture to thing of glorious-naval exploits when one thought of John Paul Jones. But he passed away, ‘and for long years there was a lack of highly conspicuous Jonesses sail- ing o’er the briny deep. Then along comes Paul Francis Jones, a marine. Thiy Paul Jones now is the pride of those who love ' the’daring deed, who cheer the lion-hearted, and who pin medals on the brave. \ What? You mean to say that you have not heard of the wonderful record achieved by this Paul Jones? Why, man alive, don’t you know that this namesake of the famous Paul Jones ate 26 1-2 waffles in 30 minutes?’. He did! Honest to goodness, he did! That’s why the cheering. Other marines, and sailors, too, have set rec- ords in firing rifle balls}and cannon balls; they have done out-of-the-ordinary things in‘the mat- ter of facing enemy fixe and all that, but never before in the history of the U. S. A. has any marine eaten 26 1-2 waffles in 30 minutes. WOMEN IN BUSINESS It is now many years since two sets of manners toward women became the conventional thing with men. Ever since woman invaded man’s hereditary kingdom of business, the world has been conscious of an accelerated slipping away of those little formalities which were the “out- ward and visible sign” of an inner reverence for nature’s most beautiful fact—that women is the giver of the greatest of all gifts, life. Thinking men and women alike have deplored | this tendency, not for the sake of the personal deference accorded women, but because of the | realization that all conventions, even the mere’ manners of social usage, are the outgrowth of those furdamentals upon which civilization rests. Women have long since observed, smiled over and passed by such fine distinctions as “hats off” in department store and hotel elevators and hats | on in elevators of office buildings. But the rapid- ity with which the bars are being let down in more serious ways by the younger business gen- eration, is not a thing to smile over. Women ex- ecutives, instintively feminine, know this. _ Nevertheless they are smiling; smiling with a studied politeness that has but one intent, and THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE proper thing and taken steps to keep the Cana- FRIDAY OCT. 29 1920 manners. They are deliberately forcing, by ac- cording men in business the same courtesy they’ receive from men socially, a gradual return of those outward signs which mean an inner protec- tive chivalry for “the greatest gift.” THE NEW RUSSIA transition periods ‘will follow. The Soviet sys- tem may be overthrown and still leave Lenin. Trotsky and their chief subordinates in power. If the Soviet leaders become convinced the tide is running overwhelmingly against them, they may invite the anti-Bolsheviki into the govern- ment to form a coalition ministry. This would be orderly evolution. If the Bolsheviki are expelled from power, progressive, orderly development would still result. if the opposition parties could immediately take over the government! To do, this the revolu- tion would have to be a carefully organized affair. If Bolshevism falls because of a sudden exas- peration of the populace, driven to unbearable frenzy through Soviet incompetence, a state of complete anarchy may follow with excesses more evil than those of the French Revolution. Should the overthrow of the Bolsheviki result from sheer inanition, government would cease to operate nationally and would become strictly local. Russia would become a vast series of village, town and city administrations,-each doing as it liked. Eventually, however, whether anarchy reigns for a time or national government vanishes, Rus- sia will find herself. _A great democracy is des- tined to occupy that part of the earth. What im- mediately follows Bolshevism will be only a stage in the evolutionary process. i ADVICE, OLD AND NEW “Hitch your wagon to a star” was good advice —maybe—when it first was handed out by the Amalgamation Order of Wise Men a century or 80 ago. But, according to Mrs. Charlie Chaplin’s mother-in-law, it is mighty poor advice now. In- this instead: “Don’t hitch your wagon to a star.” Meaning thereby that young women looking forward toward matrimony had better marry a young man at the bottom of fame’s ladder, then one who is drawing a million.a year by way of recompense for his ability to‘wear shoes nobody else: would wear; and to throw away custard pies. everybody ‘else, would like to eat. deed, so little does she think of it that she urges] ¥ After all, there’s. something admirable about X in the new laegue.

TRUTH ABOUT THE GRAIN MARKET _ The statement in yesterday’s Journal by F. L. Gates, president of the. Chicago Board of Trade, that there is no unfair manipulation of grain prices, but that the bumper Canadian wheat crop, whigh has been duntped on the American market, is responsible for the slump in wheat prices, is] worthy of consideration by men seeking the truth. Mr. Gates says that the war prices of wheat was in existence early in @fiis month, and that the price did not drop until Canadian wheat came} in. This is not due to gambling but to a condi- tion over which no one but the Wilson Adminis- tration at Washington has any ‘control. If the Wilson administration had done the dian wheat out of the country until the American farmers had disposed of their crop at the fair | prices, there would have been no slump. And Nonpartisan legislation can do nothing to remedy a conditicn like this. As a matter of fact, , the price dropped, especially in this state, while the Nonpartisans are in power and they appear helpless to do anything that will bring the price back. The Nonpartisan '-xders, on the other.hand, could have saved the £-»mers of North Dakota much money cn wheat if t:ev did not go to all the, trouble to tcll the farmers io hold their wheat until the price went up. Had the Nonpartisan managers taken the trouble to \study the world wheat market, especially the Canadian crop, they have told the farmers that wheat will be lower in price and that the thing would be to sell while the price is high. ‘i Many of the farmers followed the advice of the Nonpartisans and lost, while the wise ones who saw the hand writing on the wall, and knew, the real conditions sold their wheat.at a good price. The Nonpartisans gambled on a bad guess\and that is the re-establishment of a single code of | When Bolshevism falls in Russia, ‘one of four Reid in the National Republican’? The Experiences Of Hiram Wise | | ee : INTRODUCTION “Hiram Wise” is a farmer of the old school who believes inthe “emancyashun o’ humanity.” Be- ing a forward looking man, he is one of the'first to join the Non-. partisan league when. its organ- izers visited his community. While his varied experiences are told in story form, practically ev- ery one ‘of them has been’ dup- licated in’ real life. i “Bobs’” gpeech has heen writ- ten in didléct in order to carry out the getéral idea. It is “Hir— am” who is doing the talking, tell- ing the’ redder of his experiences with the Nonpartisan league in emancipating North Dakota, —The Author. XVIN—A WOMAN CRUCIFIED, “The Christian religion-is the fou dation, o’. civilization, an’ our. educa - tiona] system. is. civilization’s bul- wark,” Bob said, after: no one had gone up to the front o’ the stage as he jre- quested.” Therefore, the source 0’ our educational system must be pure, else it contaminates all who, come in con- tact with it. as “At your last election you place: in the office of state superintendent of schools a woman whom you knew would uphold the moral of our educa- tional. system. What was the resuit of this? Under the guise of givin’ her more. power, she was stripped o’ the power she had had, an’ a’ board cre- ated of which she was but one mem ber against four, an’ those her politi- cal enemies. This woman, has openly charged at least one o’ these men of advocatin’ an’ preachin’ the doctrine «’ the books which were sent out to your school by mistake. She has even said recently that the present ‘campaign issue is Christianity against atheism and socialism. || . “If these things are not true why con’t the league leaders arrest this woman and bring her before the bar o’ justice, makin’ her prove these asser- sions, instead 0’ the violent denuncia- tions, rancous wailings, and feeble de- nials we see in their press.. Why are they content with makin’ all these false she could be made to answer to them—and pay the’ penalty.? Mv friends; I'll tell you why this Your Teaders fear this woman for the high type o’ womanhood she repre- sents. They dare not bring her be- fore the courts of justice, because they know only too well what the outcome would be. “Like a pack o’ starving wolves who | follow the huntsman’s trail, yet fear to attack him because o’ the weapon he carries, these men hate and fear this noble woman. “That is why North Dakota has to- day what no state in our tinion has ever had before—a_weman cruicfied for her convictions.” (To Bé Continued.) , Cuts, Burns /Mamlin’s Wizard Oil a Safe First , ‘ Ald Treatment How often lockjaw,. blood poi- soning, the loss of an arm or leg, or sometimes even life itself, re= sults from the neglect of a burn or little cut!
