THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) = A SOUTH SEAS QUEEN Zaher is the name of a woman who is admin- : of the island of Badu, between Australia and New Guinea, to which post she was appointed by the government of Queensland. She is described as white-haired and energetic. For nine years she has been teacher as well as gov- ernor of the native population. During that time she has barred liquor and undesirable white visitors. The result is said to be that the natives have be- come‘industrious, happy,:healthy and prosperous, in- ¢reasing in numbers instead of dying out. Contact with civiljzation has been a curse to na- tives of many such islands. Perhaps civilization isn’t bad for.them when efficient women have a hand in controlling it. Speaking of old times, do you remember May 18, 1917, when.,Congress passed the Selective Service Act? PEACE IN MEXICO “It is safe to say,” writes a banker in Mexico City, “that at no time since 1910 have politieal conditions been so satisfactory in Mexico.” Banditry has been eliminated under the new &d- pt ministration. Commercial activity has been given a { new and decided impetus by the lack of political wrangling, which, in the last decade, led so often to the shedding of blood and destruction of property. Mexico is, according to Dr. E. J. Dillon,. noted writer,‘now in Mexico, ‘‘about to inaugurate an ‘era of internal reconstruction * * *-a vast change has come over the péople.”’ “The financial condition’ of Mexico is markedly |: . better,’’ declares: H. C. Mostyn, of the Bank of Lon- y don and Mexico. K “Bleeding Mexico” is a better Mexico. Not bet cause she bled, but because she, ‘at last, learned that ‘peace and ‘production: i is the key to the combination of the safe of prosperity. One reason there isn’t a freight car shortagg now is beeause there are no sugar profiteers using box cars as Warehouses. | The goddess chance is associated usually with ‘the gaming table.

The nails: now. are dumped helter-skelter-into a box and the box.is kept} constantly jiggling. -The.nails, for no‘scientific. rea= son whatever and simply following the hazy rules‘ of chance, assort themselves and slide prettily:down an ineline—heads up and points down—ready for use Milady, the long strings of beads that make up the portions of your handbag, exclusive of the de- sign, were strung: by luck.

It advocated a system of legisla- tion and administration by the working class on a; democratic basis. . The discussion wis summed up in the speech of | Thomas Shaw, mem|cr of the British delegation and president of the Second Internationale, who:attacked Bolshevism as he had scen it during his recent visit to Soviet Russia as a member of the British labor aD +favored few.

In’ Russia, he said, e Was no such thing as a dictatorship of:the proletariat. All lib- erty was abolished, and THE WORKING CLASS | WAS OPPRESSED by as autocratie and: militaristic a ¥egime as that of the ezar himself. Said Shaw: We bring back from Moscow and Petrograd a sad impression of the condition of the laboring class. | ‘The workmen have:almostino bread to eat. The ter- | ror inflicted by Bolshevism is so great that no one dares express his opinions. The Workmen must work—must work as directed and at what they are told.” ‘ Evidently European laborites and Socialists of | Zurope are beginning to see a great light. Fanatic- | ism, terror and wanton murder are not sanity on this |mundane sphere, i : ° Wonder how long it’ll be until some cireus side- show imports a flock of Yap-anese. yer YOUR LUXURIES During the single year 1919 the people of Ohio spent $300,000,000 more for luxuries than was spent in that state for education between the years 1837 ' jand 1919, according to comparative data presented by ’P. P. Claxton, United States commissioner of ed- ucation. . Startling figures!—and, doubtless, North Dakota | will show a similar disparity between expenditures | for education and luxury. , ‘ But in so far as the increasing demand for luxury represents the desire of the common ian to live a| broader and more‘ comfortable, life, there..can be no | quarrel with luxury, least-of all among educators. Indeed,’education would fail of its: purpose if it did not create in men a desire for other than the’ e bare necessities of existence. .; ‘ And what are luxuries? Fifteen years ano vacuum cleaners. and electric irons were luxuries in Bis- marck. These things have.become necessities be- tause the housewife has been educated ‘to kngiv that she is not the eternal bondmaid of the i ironing board and the broom. Twenty lyears ago, the carriage was a luxury of the rich. Today the workman motoring over coun- try roads with his family is a common sight. The! automobile has opened up ‘new experiences for the average man. Is the auto, strictly speaking, a lux- ury? The advance of civilization is marked. by a wider | distribution .and popularization of the things that we call luxuries when they are enjoyed only by a What is needed is not less luxury, but a still wider distribution of its benefits. 4 ————_—— Biologically speaking, the least important flies are’ casiest to swat. 94 8 | : ; “AN together Ifa; ladies, aura ‘the’ rug about to Ane spots.faded by the sun, : The city boy, who haan’t a,place | to-build a shanty, inisses a lot of the real joys of life.
