This sum-' mer’s short grape crop will be reflected in higher prices and shorter supply of the Burgundy that, will be released for drinking in 1931. What happens today has no effect for 10 years | ily by carrier, per year. 3 20 3 Baily by mail, Duieyent (in Bismarck 5 7.20 | Daily by mail, per year (in state outside Bismarck)... ae | Life is a lot like the grape crop in Burgundy.: The mistake you make now, the evil you do now, & the good you do now, may not have an immediate t: effect. But time will claim the toll or pay the re-| javard. * Emerson, greatest American philosopher, called | it the Law of Compensation. ; \ His theory is this: That, all through nature, there is at work a law of action and reaction, that all actions have certain inevitable effects, that evil generates punishment and a good deed creates’ its reward. | Was Emerson right? Or do many of us have! to wait for the Hereafter for the day of reckon-| ing? In either event, we are paid for what we do,' we get exactly what we pay for. This is as true of nations as it is true of indi-! ' viduals. It explains the raise and fall of civiliza-| tions and empires. | ia 28h Giles : A relatively easy study to master is psychology > —the analysis of self, the study of human nature, of man individually. and in his relations with other men. | » Salesmen, more than. any. other class, have ap- " ‘plied and profited from psychology, which is mere-| ‘ly a branch of the law of action and reaction which Emerson called Compensation. More difficult is that greater branch of the Law © of Compensation—philosophy, science of causes “and reasons, powers and laws. So difficult, ‘indeed, that billions live and die: , between the arrival of philosophers on earth, | Authentic history covers thousands of: years, yet & :the great philosophers can be named on your fingers—Confucius, Socrates, Voltaire, Abraham: ‘Lincoln, Solomon, Shakespeare, Aesop, Einstein, ii ‘Haeckel, Emerson. And, after all, the philosophers learn nothing} “except that action produces inevitable reaction, that evil eventually is punished and good re- ‘warded. ( eel Think back over your own life.

The colder the winter is going to be, the more. * nats you'll finda squirrel storing away: Squirrel. * doesn’t takeany chances. But humans do, espe-| cially Americans. The Treasury Department says that the aver-| 2ge American has only $250 savings. That’s a! mighty thin door to build against the wolf. Nor- mally ours is a very prosperous country. That lulls us into a false feeling of security. Probably | we'd soon stop saving altogether, if we didn’t: have periodic hard times to jolt us to our senses. | . THE MARVEL To grow the crops that feed you, requires an) average of 20 inches of rainfall, or 2260 tons of | water to the acre. ‘ If rain stopped falling and we had to haul water , ,.to farms from rivers and lakes, the labor involved , would be so enormous that people would have to! stop manufacturing, abandon their cities and their civilizations, and all flock to the country. The! effort required to haul water and-wrest a living from the soil would be so big that we would not, have time for anything else. A few showers or their absence make tremend-| “ous differences in humanity’s scheme of things, | says a bulletin of the National Geographic Society. | No wonder we all talk about the weather, \ No wonder we..all are forever speculating | ‘whether it will rain or not. “That isn’t prompted primarily by concern over the effcet of rain on our clothes and intended trips. It is an inheritance! ‘from ancestors who did no work except to get food, and to whom a shower often means a rescue from death. : _Nature does 90 per cent of the work that fur-: aishes out Hvizg.

Millions of years ago, nature put in the ground| the oil and metals without which there could be! no machinery or civilization, i Nature furnishes the trees for our lumber. We! take what we want, and wantonly destroy many ~ more. Two impressive facts loom up, as you study nature;: ait First: That nature is on the side of every hu-: man, wants us to survive and be happy, and began: millions of years ago to prepare a feast of plenty | for us. : Second: The preparation of the earth and its: resources for man did not happen just by chance. ' Back of it all is the marvelous intelligence that’ we instinctively call God. Only the foolish can} deny His existence after a glance at the wonders! of nature. } | Is man—warring, greedy, cruel—worthy of the| rich storehouses of the earth? So far, no. Inj time?' Possibly. If not, if man proves himself | unworthy, he will go the way of the dinosaur and! . } form of life will rise in his place. OUR SMALL DEBT | You shiver when our national debt is mention-, ed. It is about $24,000,000,000. “A huge sum.} of us. ‘ \ So with all our other national problems. They| look enormous. But there’s an enormous nation under our flag, to share the burden. We pay $8.65 a year, each, to carry our debt. Austria pays $106.77, Germany $41.61 (not count- ing indemnity), France $47.76, England $36.45. Those seem large, yet small enough to be handled. Europe can come back financially—if it keeps its head, works hard and has sound leaders. : ! i !

If it is really devoted to.all the high ideals enumerated in official state- ments it has no need of adopting the senseless The Cleveland city council by unanimous vote} influence as detrimental to the well being of the) community. The council’s action will be generally | approved, even though the public knows. little of the organization in question. Its name con- demns it.- In a “proclamation” issued three: weeks ago by authority of the supreme committee of the Klan! the “imperial wizard”—obvionsly a high official of the organization—declared the “knights” of the| Klan to be “a law-abiding, legally chartered, fra- ternal order designed to teach and inculcate the} i i i t i less of race, color or creed.” A resounding declaration is this of the “imperial | wizard.” But why call it the Ku Klux Klan and order that shrinks from public observation? The teaching of Americanism does not require mum- mery, nor are the “purest ideals of citizenship” best promoted by such ‘tactics as marked. the ac- tivities of the origins! “lan “Knights” whose ex- ploits stir unpleasant memories through the sonth| and the border states. : The city council sounds a proper warning against countenancing an organization that comes in such a guise. Even admitting purity of purpoge on the} part of those behind the new Klan in its early stages, it is obvious that an organization so con-| ceived and so’named is likely to be made the ve- hicle for grave abuses, becoming at times not a safeguard but a menace to Americanism.
