Her efforts have made Bismarck and the entire: ©} Slope a better place to live in. If the kind wor ds | spoken. and. the unselfish deeds performed could be gathered and chronicled, what a wonderful record of unselfish devotion would be written! there? j Some philosopher. has well said that all you} get in life is what you give. Those who can meas- ure their riches in terms of service have wealth that brings them an unpurchasable income of; peace and happiness. Sister Boniface has given | generously of personal service to many who have} ecme to her with hearts bowed down. She has svatched them through the valley of the shadow | and has rejoiced with those who won their way | back to health and happiness and she has wept | _ with the loved ones of those.who died. can be no greater service than this. A she gave so freely of her goodness, so. a whole communtiy today does her honor and reveres her name. Her service unheralded and, unsung . pub- + liely is brilliant, strong, and bright. Sister Boni-! © face came to Bismarck in connection with a school | under the direction of the Benedictine order. It} was in this capacity that she demonstrated an| executive ability of a high order, combined with a tact and kindness that drew people of all creeds and faith to her. Accommodations for the sick were inadequate} in the pioneer city. Some physicians prevailed | upon her to devote a few rooms for the care of | the sick. From this grew the great hospital which | she now directs with such skill as to win for St. . Alexius commendation from the greatest medical | men of the nation. ~ Her work for North Dakota is hard to measure with the yardstick of these times. It will grow as her services recede into the great perspective of time. This community has been so close to the| service of that hospital to justly gauge what Sis-| * ter Boniface and her associates of a great order’ have done. ..Everyone is too prone to take for! granted a service that can be had so easily—bene- | fits so readily and so graciously bestowed. Characteristic of ‘the members of her great or- der, Sister Boniface shunned publicity for her- | self. She was content in accomplishnig what she | set out to’do. The Tribune tenders to Sister Boniface and her | associates” hearty congratulations on fhe event of her Golden Jubilee of service. It knows that it|? : voices the unanimous: sentiment of this commun- ity in wishing her many years more in which to] : serve. «. Through tireless effort, the Benedictine Order, has reared here a great institution of which Bis- | { marck is proud. The fiftieth anniversary. of| Sister Boniface accentuates the place the hos-| | pital occupies in this city as el as in the entire! Northwest. | “FLU” GERMS | & The invisible, unidentified organism “or germ | = that causes “flu” can pass through a stone wall.,. | = “Flu” itself is the most mysterious disease in| 4 existence. ; So says Dr. William H.

EDITORIAL. REVIEW Comments reproduced in this cohimn may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune. , They are presented here in order that our readers may have both sides of important issues which are being discussed in the presa of the day. A JUST VERDICT A young woman in Scranton asked the advice of her pastor about a proposal of marriage from young man. ‘The pastor, on the ground “that his family history revealed his unfitness for mar- rige,” advised her to refuse him. ‘him, 4 Whereupon the young man, hearing of what | |had happened to his suit and how it came about, sued the clergyman for damages. A jury heard \the case, and after a very brief deliberation re- turned a verdict in favor of the pastar. That was sound judgment: Beyond’ doubt ‘the pastor gave the best advice he could in ths most jcomplete good faith; and that ought to protect ‘him against_a verdict for damages even though the young man could prove that he was wrong in his advice. To justify a verdict for damages in such a case it would be necesssary to show that the | jadvisor was actuated by malice. It is true that the ground on which the advice was given, that the young man’s family history % informed the medical profession of only one thing | “revealed his unfitness for marraige,” is large in| possibilities of injustice. Many a man las made | gcod despite a bad family history. Many good | men come of families with poor records.

Editor Pismarck Tribune: My attention has ‘been called to | Judge Robinson's “Saturday Evening. Letter” which appeared-in-the Febru- jary 4th edition of your paper in which the kind Judge proposes to initiate a law by which one -half cf all unpaid ‘taxes for the years 1919, 1920 and 1921 hati be cancelled and thus lighten the itax burden of those who have as yet juot paid their just apportioned share of taxes for the past three yea No doubt the good Judge is tryiig his best to find some remedy by which the present high taxes might be re- duced and also relieve’ all delinquents, of one half of their share cf taxes levied in the past to help defray in- jcurred expenses of our state, county, |city and township governments, but 1 doubt very much_if the good Judge realizes what effect and results such a law will have. In looking up the proceedings of the various State Boards ‘of. Equalization + ,tor the past three years, it seems that all state taxes have been levied in strict compliance with the laws of the state and no doubt all Other hoards authori: to levy taxes did likewise or th es levied would have been protested. Among the various state taxes levied I find a ‘certain amount levied Tor soldiers’ bonus which is ‘be- thecretical doctrines to practical and | tt ing pAid the soldier boys is fast as it is collected. template cancelling part of th delay the payment of the bonus. eral more years? I also notice that a certain amount of, money was levied for wolf bounty to redeem registered “wolf. bounty warrants,” which do. not bear inter- lest.” Does the kind Judge contemplate making hundreds of farmers wait several years more for their bounty? I also notice that a certain amount of money was ‘levied for the support of the various State Instiuions.; Does the kind Judge propose to starve all inmates and discourage the helpers and delay paymeni of money that-has been advanced to some of the State Institutions? 1 also notice: among. many, other levies, a levy of .$5,000 .yearly salary and $500 yearly expense money ‘for the good old Judge. I wonder if the good Judge is willing to have his sal- ary and expense money reduced ‘for the'remainder, of his own term of of- fice in proportion to his propesed re daction of taxes teyicl for ths pur- pose? Whenever tax levied, ie ars levied fc¥ a specifi. purpose, just as the taxes that were levied to pay. the Judge's. salary and. bit of expenses and whenever any portion of the f levied for any purpose are not paid promptly then the various school dis counties, cities, _ townships etc., register warrants until such sume are paid. Most each year all boards levy a tax to cover any uncollectabie portion of taxes levied the previous year in order to defray the. necessfry governmental expense. I am heartily in favor of reducing the taxes and the only way to reduce them is:to repeal Jaws. that create boards and , commissions, laws that ermit the state to build houses, mills cking plants, the famous re- call law enacted by the Nonpartisans ‘act 99 per cent of all laws the Nonpartisan league, is done, our taxes will and when t be reduced 50 pi 1% y Since all taxes ‘have been levied in the past for a specific purpose, I. be- antl unjust to cancel se in most instances the unpaid taxes hdve been levied for money that [EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO| MRS TRIG. so TELE SOU SomETHING. BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets area Harmless Substituté Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—thesub- stitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneoug. These littleolive- | colored tablets are the result of Dr. | Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. The phason little tablet$ do the good that calomel docs, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like | strong liquids or calomel.

Nancy and: Nick, sitting in. the front row, were ever so much interested. Buskins said that he'd heard better poetry, but after all no one ever mixed food with art and it wasn’t to be’expected. The next speech was.made by a:doughnut, which isaid_ this: “Foolish little Jack a’Spandy, Stuffed'on forty kinds of candy, He ate all day til late at night, He had to groan at every bite, Jack would never. mind his mother, Ate ond doughnut after ‘nother, Bought a big green sour pickle At the grocers for a nickel.
