THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) <p> WAITED 45 YEARS Jacob of old waited 14 years for his beloved Rachel. But his patience is dwarfed into insig nificance by‘ that of a plain American bachelor who waited 45 years for a girl he loved, J. C. Gibbs, 65,.0f Council Bluffs, Iowa, is soon to claim his.bride, Myrtle Sanderson, 63, who At the behest-of her father has spent the most of her life as a missionary in India. Now that her father is dead, she has sailed for home and will wed the man who has waited for her nearly a half century. 243k « During the 45 years, Gibbs, has made many trips to India to visit his sweetheart, always re- turning to his Iowa farm to resume his patient waiting. True love never dies. It survives all delays, surmounts all barriers, suffers any sacrifice and emerges from every ordeal stronger and more confident than before. 7.20 5.00 + 6.00 ri ON DRESS Mrs. Warren G. Harding, the “first lady,” has this to say on the subject of dress: “I have; always felt clothes are trentendously important. ‘No one can afford to be indifferent about them.” Well spoken! Most of us like to say that it is what a person is and not what he looks like that counts. But, in reality,,we make our first judg- ments of men on their looks and find out what they are at. our, leisure. 5 Nai ‘Most of us are engaged in the business of “sell- ing” our personalities. It is sad. to, reflect, but . true, that to attract our customers to our charac- ters, we must give ourselves a certain amount of window dressing. The function of good clothes is to provide the immediate attraction. that personality cannot of itself forthwith. attract. an Besides compelling the instant attention of oth- ers, good clothes also have the quality of an en- couraging pat on the back of the wearer. Who has not felt the self confidence and the pep that a new spring suit, or even a new hat, im- parts? —- \ GERMANY’S BOOMERANG VICTORY Germany has won the plebiscite in Upper Silesia. But she hasn’t yet won Upper. Silesia. Whether or not that rich triangle of, mines. and, mills will be partitioned, wili be decided by the allied council of ambassadors. The plebiscite, it develops, was merely “for the guidance” of this council. The council now talks about dividing up Upper Silesia and giving the vast coal beds, the third richest. in Eurcpe, to Poland. France, bent on weakening Germany and making Poland her eas- tern military outpost, probably will favor handing the.mines to the Poles. Germany needs. these coal beds. They’d ‘last 1600 years, at the pre-war’ production rate of 50,000,000 tons a year. ie It begins to look as it the allies have been do- ing some tall thinking. Maybe they just ‘blund- ered into it, but in Upper Silesia they have a strat- egic advantage... , wa hla At the next reparations conference, the allies might easily say: “Well, Herr von Simons, do you think that Germany, if granted ‘Upper Silesia, c-uld manage to pay our originai indemnity de- mand?” Bok bcs The stage it set in Europe for a great struggle over the German indemnity. . The Silesian plebis-| “ cite may ring up the curtain. The Wall Street journal figures that if Germany paid ‘he allied demands in full-on May 1,. 1921, the indemnity would total only the equivalent of - $13,342,000,000—which, in rough figures, is only. a third more than the allies owe the United States. _.. But Germany’s payments are to be deferred so that the final payment will fall due in 1963. Dur- {ing that period, compound interest-will have in- treased the indemnity to $56,500,000,000. It will tbe correspondingly less if-Germany pays in full sooner. % ' Can Germany pay that much? “In 1913 the-great Dresdener Bank—one of Ger- ymany’s four D” banks, most powerful money trust in Europé—issued a booklet in honor of the kaiser’s sfiver-jubilee. This booklet boasted that Germany’s national wealth was equivalent to $270,000,000,000. if Give Germany the benefit of the doubt and sub- eickmane recently claimed as the amount’ Ger- many hag lost; in, fortified territory ar i an est iy if ortified terri ry. and supplie: Sem nmol af LY. THE BISMARCA Thiet NE: | indemnity is only about six and a half per cent of Ki THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE |Germany’s national wealth. |. The Dresdener booklet further claimed, that }Germany’s normal increase in national. wealth | ‘is equal to about $1,000,000,000.a year. .That,in-! ‘crease would come very close to paying ‘the total | | indemnity... j | | Of course, figures can be juggled to show any-, ‘thing, but the above statistics are Germany’s own |—and Germany surely knows the truth about her wealth and earning power. | aes: \ RETURN OF NICK CARTER Detective Nick Carter, whose exploits a genera- | |fion ago were translated into 12 languages, i3, ‘being shown in the ntovies. ‘His re-birth extends | to fiction, reprints now selling into the millions of | copies.

UNCERTAINTY REGARDING RECALL ‘Tuesday the News jpresented, brief interviews with 27. well known Minot men met at random about’ the city and asked their opinions regarding the state recall election propositions..
