Enough farmers | have agreed to join the circuit to make it feasible, | with a possibility of growth until it becomes the, largest, though the youngest, dairy circuit in west-/ ern North Dakota. No time was wasted in getting down to busi-) fies here. Many of those who signified their in-| tention of entering into the circuit had investi- | gated the subject of dairying and of dairy circuit | _ organization thoroughly. Most of them now are caring for a large number of cows. They are going | to put their individual energies into a business or-| ganization and hire expert help. The circuit ought | r be ahuge Success. ms | The farmers dame to the city and met in the Commercial club rooms. They are working in| close cooperation with the agricultural committee of that organization. They joined Bismarck bus-| iness men at luncheon, swapped stories and talked | business. . No feature of the organization meeting is more, commendable than this spirit ‘of cooperation be- tween the business men of the city and the busi- ness men of the country on a business proposition | for the benefit of the entire community. _ “FULL STEAM AHEAD _ Pessimism is contagious, often more so than op- timism. A knock frequently travels: faster than a word’ of praise. - Just'‘now. one may well turn to reports being re- ceived from: all over the Slope country that, with early: fall rains, farmers are’ gétting ready for| next year’s production, ‘They dre fiot: spreading | pessimism, but are taking’ off theircoats and’ go- ing ahead with confidence in the'future. Their order is “full steam ahead.” It is a good example. | ©, # STRENGTH ‘ In the Malden ‘street police.‘station, Boston, prisoner Earl W. Marks, 19 years old, hears that | his baby is dead. Frantic with grief, Marks tried to get out and join his wife in the hospital. He rips a chilled steel bar, one inch thick, out of the door of his cell, and is removing another when discovered. He couldn’t do that, except under violent emo- | tion. You have more strength in your will power and| your emotions than in your. muscles. : ,. FROM POOR PARENTS ! Italians ‘all over’ the world are celebrating the 600th anniversary of the death of their country- man, Dante Alighieri, one of the greatest writers | of all time. = Have you read Dante’s “Inferno”? Maybe not. But years ago, when you were a boy, a book agent! with a ball-bearing tongue probably sold_a copy fo your mother, and you may recall looking at the ferrible pictures of sinners writhing in hell. ‘Dante, born of a poor family, put in a long time! rolling pills in a small Italian drug store. His! parents, without wealth, gave the world a treas-) ure, That should. inspire poor people who wonder what the future will bring to their boy, just start-, ing. school. Wealth and a home of luxury are not necessary | for success of children. It’s what’s born in them, | plus what their mothers teach them, that counts. | * Aesop, greatest writer of fables, was a slave.| Charles Dickens once toiled in a shoe factory.' ‘ Ghakespeare’s father was a glove maker. The, poet Keats was the son of a hostler. was the son of a wool comber. A Benjamin Franklin’s father was a candle maker. The locomotive was invented by George Ste- phenson, son of a coal-mine stoker.

So it goes on| from week to week and month to month. i It takes a common sense private business two weeks to dispense with jobs that have no work for the job holders to do. It takes a government machine, trying to operate on a business basis but not knowing how to get down to brass tacks of it, anywhere from four months to four years to eliminate public jobs that have no excuse for ex- istence. ; At an average of $150 a month 200,000 needless names on the federal. payrolls lift a million dol- lars a day out of the taxpayers pockets virtually | every day in the year.’ This is approximately what the transportation tax directly and immediately ; costs the tax burdened American public. The| shippers and,receivers of freight, struggling un- der this load every dav, know what such a tax But a'l of it is only Think what a colossal revenue machine is built on the tariff law and duty system. Yet thus far the maximum of custom receipts from tariff du- ties has averaged about $300,000,000 a year. Here again the whole of those tariff duties would be something short of enough to pay the salaries of government clerks and other employees’ whose services are not now needed and for the most part mever. have been needed. Adopting government economy programs is one of the favorite amusements of public life. Getting government economy action is rare enough to class | charges hurled back? and forth.

The shipping board is almost out- ranking the railroad problem as the bug-bear of the national administra- tion.

By Olive Barton Roberts Away off in the bay, Mr. Fisher- man stretched his net. There it float- ed beneath the waves, securely fast- ened at the corners to dig pound poles driven down into the sand at the bottom of the wator. Every morning he took out the net and every night he brought it in. In the mornng he would hook it into place under the water so cunningly that the people in tne Land of the \Wigglefins never suspected. it was there and would swim right into its entangling folds. At night he would gather it in, with its slipping burden, return to shore, and sort his catch according to weight, size, and kind, q| and scl it to market people. After a time the Wigglefins got to know this, at least all the daddies and mothers knew, and all the little Wigglefins had been warned over and over to keep away from the bay and the pound-poles, as repeatedly as ‘Cutie Cottontail had ‘been warned by his parents to beware of Reddy Fox in ‘Helter Skelter Land.

There was one person whom Mr. Fisherman‘was most anxious to catch, and that was Tub Terrapin. Tub made grand eating and would have brought a grand price as many of his relatives had done. But Tub knew all this and never went near a net. ‘And Mr. Fisherman knew that Tub knew, and was trying to think up an- other way of landing hm. So when Tub Terrapin came along jand lay down right at one of the busiest corners in Wigglefin Land, and right on top of Spike Starfish, \Crawly Crab, and some others, Cap'n Pennywinkle thought of the net at once, and that was why he sent the Twins for it.
