A convention of these devoted patriotic women has just closed at Lisbon and the resolutions adopted show that the war mothers of the state “will continue. their. efforts: for a better type of citizenship. . They naturally are committed to a program of safe and sane disarmament—-no foolish pacifists are these sturdy women who willingly gave up their loved ones, in’ the ‘defense of national honor and the protection of the oppressed. The sacrifices they made have brought a noble band of women into harmonious’ action for the betterment of living conditions in the state. Work among crippled children has been endorsed «and . the girl welfare movement through the Y. W. C. A. and allied organizations are to have the vigor- ous support of these brave women, many of whose sons today lie in Flanders’ field. May success crown iueir every exori as it did their earnest work and fervent prayers during the dark days when the sinister hosts of autocracy were being crushed that a better civilization might be conceived. All honor and glory to the War Mothers of : North Dakota. PITTY KIDS!,, “Social pressure”—too many movies, too many parties, late hours, nervous ‘excitement generally, —are chief causes of: fatigue and’ malnutrition among children, Dr. Veeder, of St: Louis, tells the American Medical Association. . City conditions are a strain on children. ‘It’s * the lucky youth whose parents were wise and firm enough to send him to bed early and regularly when he was’a child. SILVER DOLLARS - : The United States Mint is coining silver dol- * Jars for the first time in seven years. Silver dollars are heavy in the pocket, but clean- er than paper money: Some paper money is so dirty few perspns would pocket it if it were anything but money. Most persons are too glad to get any sort of good money to complain about its looks, its weight or even its smell. eee YOUR 32,500 GRANDPAS Flowing..in your veins is the blood of 65,000 people who were walking the earth when Colum- bus discovered America, iii'1492. M For instance, you have one father and one - mother. . Each-ofthem had the same, which gives you two grandfathers and two grandmothers. Each of the latter had a father and mother, which gives you, four great-grandpas and four great- grandmas. Trace your family tree back through 18 gen- erations, to about the year 1300, and you have 262,144 grandparents. That is, you're Seacenden from that many. Carry: it back 5000 VERS anit" your. ancestors would number so many that we couldn’t begin to print their names in the issue of. the Tribune you’re now reading. Did you,ever drive yqur Ford up to your ances- tors’ old ‘homestead-and ‘have some fellow, so old that no one could raise a question about him, say, “My! you're the walking image of your great- grandfather!" -~ In families that have! ancient ancestral. por- ; traits, it often happens that a picture hundreds of j years old looks like a child of the year 1921." Unquestionably, if you had photographs of your ancestors as far back as 1000 years ago, you'd’ find that you are the exact duplicate of one of them. Are you the reincarnation of that man or wo- man that looked so much like you far back in the past? A large part of the world’s population believes 80. Even more interesting is to wade what kind of adventures he had—also the love romance that ‘was responsible for your presence now on earth. What part of your physicial make-up, intellect, jis approaching its curtain. | emotions or character did you inherit from him? | What part from his wife? | The Mendelian law of heredity, accepted by most scientists, says that all these are inherited from both sides. Another school of scientists believes that your nerves and your skeleton are inherited from your mother’s sire, and that your father’s line of de- scent furnishes you with your brains, hair, nails, muscles and your outer skin. Material for much argument between ma and ipa. Most of us joke about tracing family trees. But tnis would be a kindlier world if we all gave our ancestors more thought. The fact that you are descended from 262,144 people who were living 600 years ago suggests imagination or sentiment. Wonder if: these people next door are distinctly related to you, far back in the mists of time. Se | JAIL*EM | It would be better, if possible, to deter an assas- ‘sin than to punish him after the crime. . A fine is a small deterrent.’ There would be fewer deaths in auto crashes if there were more jail sen- tences for offenders. Also, there would be fewer traffic accidents if jaywalkers were given a few days in a cell .to study how to cross the street. 89 YEARS AGO d “The boast that our country is the asylum for. the oppressed in other parts of the world is very philanthropic and sentimental, but I fear that we |shall before long derive little comfort from being made the almshouse and place of refuge for the poor of other countries.” That sounds as if it might have been said in 1921. It referred to immigration from England and Ireland, and was written in New York in 1832. 8. 0. S: Roger Bacon knew how dangerous it was in his century to think. Scientists were burnt as sorcer- ers. So he wrote the record of his scientific ob- servations and experiments in cipher. He died in 1294, but his cipher remained unsolved until 1920. Prof. William’ R. Newbold, of the University of Pennsylvania, has, been decoding it at the rate lof one page a month. Slow work. He might get some help from the young ‘men in the railroad ticket offices who seem able even to decipher their own time tables. bi EDITORIAL REVIEW sides of important issues cussed in the press of the day. RUSSIA TURNS TO CAPITALISM ° Repeated reports of the modification of Lenin’s policy are now elaborated by a somewhat more detailed account. A dispatch from Riga gives a summary of the new policy approved by the re- cent Communist congress in Moscow. Requisition on the peasantry is to be given up. Farmers are to retain two-thirds of their produce to dispose of through the co-operative organiza- tions, which, despite Lenin’s persecutions, have ‘survived and grown stronger. ' The largest industries, such as leather, salt.and textiles, are to remain in the hands of the state and are to be sped up for the benefit of the peas- ‘ants, who have been suffering from the inefficien- cy of sovietized manufacture. The bonus- system |will-be adopted to induce the proletarian worker to work. | Small and medium co-operatives and private industries will now be encouraged. Personal initi- ative will be stimulated and equal pay Will.go by the board. There will be relaxation_of prosecution and re-' moval of hindrances to free trade. Thus Russia heads forward again to capitalism and private initiative. The attempt to function on Marxian theory and in defiance of human na- ture has failed and its failure is acknowledged in act if not in words. What a sorry tale it is. What a commentary on ithe folly of. frantic revolution. Lenin and his, group drowned Russia in blood, destroyed accumu-| lated wealth by billions, set up a cruel and de- structive tyranny in the name of progress, and for all this Russia is presented with a primitive organization which places her far‘in the rear of human progress and will have to be perpetually | changed and built up through generations before it reaches the efficiency for human security and happiness attained by the much abused capitalist; system. | The Communist tragi-farce is not ended, but it Fanatics will learn} nothing from it, but it is teaching the teachable in every country a valuable lesson. Representa- \tive democracy. and the cause of individual liberty will be fortified by its monstrous demonstration of the basic truths of civilized progress. This is some compensation for the obstruction to Euro- pean restoration which the Communist mischief has worked in and out of Russia —Chicago Tri- bune. ‘ that the brotherhood of man is more fact than) Reckless auto drivers are potential assassins. | THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE — CS INSPIRING SESSION AT _ SALT LAKE Manditi Delegate, Tells of Pro- 1 Bea :at'General Federa- - | i \ rson. retiring Mra,,Bernard,S- se pire ah Club, whe pres‘dent of the ] Forti bas 4 feturned, from the hig General J jera ion, aeromen’ 's Clu 8 | meeting “at Salt’ Lake oe City, reporty ; many ‘features of interest ‘to local club. woes ng eri pe, meeting. ign to the Lae club pro- me “routine,, A) reports from state. pregidenta .gpd..other depart- ment heads,there were some wonder- ful talka,;by pronxinent. women,; and some. ‘fine: :musigal, features.

The effect was declared to be most} impressive, one of the interesting fea- tures being that while the Federat! women were provided with seats, there were thousands and thousands of peo- ple standing massed about the uni- versity campus, and, the crowd was entirely silent during the rendition of | the masterpiece. It. was given at seven o'clock in the evening on the campus of the Uni-! versity of Utah. At noon of one of; the following days: Emma Lucy Gate: gave a voice: recital, accompanied b; Mr. McClelland, organist at the Taber. nacle, on the great organ, which |: Salt Lake's boast. | A feature of the program most teresting to North Dakota women, was | ithe appearance of Gertrude Bonnin of | | Washington, in ah address “Ameri-! | canizing the First American.” Bonnin is a full blood Sioux and gave! her address dressed in native costume. | Her talk was very eloquem «> her: personility compared very <ivorably | with the most cultured of the white! women present. A signal honor was vouchsafed Mrs. | Arthur Peterson of Mandan, when! Mrs. Elmer Blair of New York Cit| general chairman of the National} Child Welfare Division paused in her address to make a special mention and commendation of Mrs. A. H. Pet- erson of North Dakota, state pres:dent of that division, for her constructive | work and great assistance. : “I shall appoint five state presi- dents to specialize on a working pro- gram,” said Mrs. Blair, “and one of those states will be North Dakota.” North Dakota women and particular- {ly those from Mandan and Bismarck were quite thrilled at this high praise in a national meeting to one of their | number. |! There were ‘five representatives { from North Dakota in attendance, Mrs. | Lyman N. Cary, state president; Miss ; Minnie J. Neilson of Bismarck, Natiou- ial head of the Department of Edu- ‘cation; Mrs. Gaither of Bismarck, Mrs. Cousins of Carrington, and Mrs. Nicl:- erson of Mandan. iProminent Methodist To Occupy Pulpit Dr. Thompson McKinney of Phila- delphia, an evangelist of wide reputa- tion will arrive im. the city Saturday afternoon, and will occupy the pulpit of the Methodist: Episcopal church here on Sunday morning.

Another prominent speaker to be in attendance at the institute is Dr. Leissman of Chicago, whose subject will be “Bible study,” he being an ex- pert bible student.

There will be in connection with; the, more serious features, plenty of]; athletic. and recreational activities, and the Mandan fair grounds will pro-; vide a most beautiful setting as a! background. ADVENTISTS DRAW CROWDS TO MEETINGS City of Tents at Fair Grounds! Scene of Great Activity— Blue Laws Discussed A number of Mandan people drove to the city of tents on the fair grounds on Wednesday evening to listen to an address at the Seventh Day Adventist services. Dr. C. B. Thompson, an evangelist from Chicago, was the speaker and in his theme, the “Sunday Blue Laws,” {he gave a most convincing and thor- j oughly logical exposition of the fal- lacy of such measures.

Team. fans held a meet- To Supp Mandan basebal ing Thursday evening at the Commy- cial club. There was a very fair tendance and various plans were sub- mitted by interested persons for ihe raising of funds to support a full salar'ed team. A financial report was given by S. E. Arthur, secretary-treasurer, and 1% committee was appointed to assist the executive board in the procuring of funds. The personnel of this commit- tee is Mike: Mulready, Joe Maitland, Bernard Regan, Harold Kramer and John Kennelly. A great deal of enthusiasm was manifested and fans feel that with some reinforcement of the: present team, we will be able to put a real team into the field. Saffering From Blood Poison, John Hoffman, 2 young man resid- ing in the Heart River addition, is sut- fer'ng from a bad case of blood Poisoning as the result of a slight Scratch on his hand. Mr. Hoffman was fishing and in some manner caught the fish hook in his finger. The accident was slight and he paid no attention to it until infection occurred. It is feared that the finger may have to be amputated. Train Service interferes. Under normal circumstances, there would have been a large. attendance from Mandan at the open meetings of the Medical Association in Bismarck, but medical men and numbers of others who des'red to attend have found it impossible to do so. There is only one train a day and in addition, the ferry is not- running, half a mile of road between Mandan and the riv- er being under water. Committed From Minot. Lavar Elifsen, who has been on parole from the State Training School, with another boy named Roy Chris- tianson, has in committed to the | Training School from. Minot.
