THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) <> IN MEMORY OF HEROES Seventeen states have about matured their plans for memorial buildings to perpetuate the memory of the American soldiers who died in the World War. i Unlike memorials erected after previous wars,| those now contemplated will serve some useful purpose. They will combine beauty and rever-' ence with usefulness. Sitti This same trend is evidentin memorials "that have been proposed in England and France. The strictly monument type of memorial ap- pears to have nearly run its course. Its place‘is taken by memorial libraries, hospitals, auditor- iums, stadiums and amphitheaters. Uk! é 7 is: :. : . : Two years from now, the University of Illinois expects to.open a,$2,000,000 athletic stadium and recreational field.. It will seat 75,000—the largest athletic plan of its kind in the country. While this stadium is being financed by the uni- versity’s students and alumni, without state aid, it will be a memorial to every Illinois soldier that died in the war. The University of Kansas is erecting a similar memorial stadium. Its first section is expected to be completed in time for the Kansas-Missouri football game in November. The University of Nebraska, with state and publie aid, is erecting a memorial gymnasium. Connecticut, for her state war memorial, is con- sidering placing milestones on her highways, each stone engraved in honor of an individual Connec- ticut man who made the supreme sacrifice. Pennsylvania plans a giant memorial building connecting the two parts of the city of Harris- burg. Indianapolis, which already has one. of the world’s five greatest war monuments, will be the site of a $2,000,000 state memorial. Probably a Coliseum, with memorial halls, auditoriums, tro- phy rooms and American Legion headquarters. Massachusetts will build a similar structure in Boston, in addition to monuments on the battle- fields of France and arrangements for perman- ently taking care of graves there. Colorado has appropriated large sums for erec- tion of memorial armories. Virginia will build a $500,000 memorial library. Utah contemplates the same. ‘ Some cities have planted a shade tree for each of their soldier dead. This idea is spreading. One plan, now gathering much support, proposes lin- ing the Lincoln Highway from New York harbor to the Golden Gate, and the Dixie Highway from Chicago to Florida, with memorial trees. When Attila the Hun died, he was buried in an unknown river in'a triple tomb with alternate walls of gold, silver and iron. Slaves who buried him were executed to keep the grave secret. Romans, commemorating their war dead, gave the world memorial arches. f That the memorials we are building in honor of our war heroes are tending toward useful struc- tures, is evidence of an increasing spirituality. The boys who died in France need no marble or bronze. Their real memorial will be in the Soul of America. ROOMS WITH BATH “Everybody wants a room with bath,” com- plains a New York hotel man. “No rate is too high for people to pay if a private bath goes with the room. But we can’t fix the rates low enough on rooms without, to keep them filled.” And yet only. a couple of generations ago there wasn’t a bath tub, in the modern sense, in the United States, The first bath was installed in Cincinnati in 1842 and the man who installed it was considered “queer.” Boston in 1845 passed an ordinance making bathing in a tub unlawful, except on medi- cal advice. KINGS Kings must come off their high horse—even) dead kings! This ery isn’t raised in Russia, but in England, where there is much adverse criticism of an equestrian statue of King Edward by Bertram Mc- Kennal, recently unveiled in London.

They’re all holding hands. We don’t know why they’re doing it. Maybe because the young doughboys brought the habit back from France and the old doughboys contract-| ed the habit. Of course, it isn’t good etiquette—but who cares for etiquette nowadays? | | FATALISM Of all the allied war fliers none was more dar- ing than Captain Anselme Marchal of the French army... Everyone expected him to be killed. In. June, 1916, he flew from Nancy to Berlin, dropped leaflets on the German capital, proceeded onward, disappeared and was given up for dead. But he had had, a forced landing, was captured and—then:he escaped. More battle exploits. The other day he was killed while driving in an automobile at moderate speed. Food for argument for fatalists. CARUSO’S WEALTH The Caruso fortune, ‘according to reports from| Italy, is estimated at 30,000,000 lire. The greater part of it. is invested in Italian real estate and securities. At the normal rate of exchange this would be $6,000,000, but at the present rate of exchange it is only $1,263,000, Mrs. Caruso has decided to live in Italy. The fact that her money. will go about five times a3/ far there may not. be the reason, but it would be! a perfectly good reason. A PAINLESS TAX Says the Philadelphia Inquirer: “Why not a painless tax here? ‘The salés tax has become a| thing, decidedly worth ‘talking about,’ says Pro-' fessor Leacock in Collier’s; We agree with him. \If Canada can have a ‘painless tax,’ why cannot the United States?” Says the Boston Herald: “The wonderful) thing about. the Canadian sales tax, according to! Professor. Leacock in Collier’s, is that the con-| sumer is practically unaware.that it is there. No tax is levied on retail sales. The tax does not apply to sales made by the farmer, and the list of exemptions contains 91 items. Yet, small as! the tax is, it brought in about $50,000,000 in the| first year. A proportionate yield with our popu-| \lation would give us $600,000,000. The revenue from the sales tax has made it possible in Canada! to abolish last month the business-profits tax and the always unpopular luxury tax.” “h Says the Hartford Times:. “Congress could turn to Canada for experience and profit thereby. In Collier’s, Professor Stephen Leacock, probably ithe most distinguished: economist in the Domin- ion, explains how the Dominion government has been most pleasantly surprised by the productiv-| lity of.a sales tax, and by the complete absence lof public criticism of it. .No new burdens are put ‘upon business; there is no new prying into pri- vate affairs. If the sales-tax idea can be so suc- cessfully carried out by our neighbor to the north, {there is no reason why it cannot be successfully | ‘carried out by us.” ' | -These are quotations in brief from a few edi- |torial pages.

DIES AFTER LING Mrs. George Boehm, aged 57, died here yesterday afternoon. Deceasoid was a prominent resident of the St. Vincent vicinity and. had been ill for gome time. The cause of her death was gallstones. Besides her husband, four sons and three daughters remain to mourn her death. The remains were taken from the Kennelly undertaking parlors to the home near St. Vincent where the fun- eral will be held from the St. Mar greta church tomorrow. mornin The Mandan News: through its at- torneys, Charles L. Crum and T. J. Krause, today carried to the supreme court an effort to force. the, city com- mission to pay it some $550 out of the general funds of thé city. The Mandan News as Official paper published: two notices of special as- sessments on the white way construc- tion, one amounted to $292.10, the other to $280.72. H, L. Henke, president of the commission, and W. H. Seitz, audito: signed warrants and tendered them to the News drawn on the special lighting assessment fund. Ho the News insisted that it be paid money from the general fund. the city officials refused: to do claim- ing that the cost of adyertising should | come out of the general cost of in- stalling the white way; and further that the general fund was depleted and the bills-could not be paid out of that fund if the city so desired. ~.Bhe- News, under a writ of mat! damus,sought to Have ‘the eommls- sion drdered to pay the money out of the general fund.
