The dyed-in-the-wool baszhall} fan will greet the Dakota league baseball team in Bismarck with! loud acclaim, the less enthusiastic! fan will welcome it none the less! and the citizen who does not hap- pen to care for baseball but who does believe:in advertising his city; will extend a warm hand to the: new players. If baseball is the typically na-| ticnal game Bismarck must be in! the center of a typical American population, for it is doubtful if there is a territory in.the country where folk will forsake; a meal more quickly, drive an automobile far- they or find more good reasons for attending a baseball game than in the “Bismarck territory.” Bismarck joins Fargo, James- town, Sioux Falls, Aberdeen and! other cities in the Dakota league. Tf the team receives support a fran- chise will ‘be given to Bismarck} next year. Baseball is not only a} healthy sport but it is good adver- tising for a city. It therefore be— hooves all Bismarck folk to stand with the team. If one were to put his hand on two strongest advertising points; for the average healthy American city he would choose baseball and aband. Bismarck needs both. We need a good band and ought, to have one that next year can give weckly concerts in a park or on the courthouse lawn, and we ought to be willing to support it. HERE’S YOUR AIRPLANE An’ airplane that rises straight] up.in the air and descends slowly the same way, instead of requiring a large Janding field! : Such an invention, the long- sought goal? of aviators; is ‘said*to have been perfected by Louis Bren- nan, Englishman, assisted by the British air ministry. Brennan’s airplane, of the heli- copter type, can stand still in the air 30 minutes, in a wind blowing up to 20j miles an hour. So claim people who saw it tested out. Such an invention would revolu- tionize flying. You can now buy a good air- plane, one that is reasonably safe, | as cheaply as you can buy a good auto. The obstacle that has kept the! airplane from coming into general) use is the necessity of having a big, landing field to glide over ‘before| rising into the air or when descend- ing. If Brennan’s machine does’ what is claimed for it, this obstacle is eliminated. ‘For instance, you would keep your plane in a garage with a roof opening like a trapdoor, Climb into your machine, soar etraight up, g0 where you’ want; to, come back, descend slowly. in a:etraight line, settling gently back into the garage, perc S Even if Brennan’s invention does not turn out as expected, it is only| a question of time until such a de-; vice will be perfected, Experiments by other helicopter operators make this certain. Hansch, the Germanyynearly, ai year ago, exhibited in Holland a/ helicopter expected to travel 312! miles an hour. Nothing has been| heard of him since, so his machine apparently needed more tinkering before placing it on the market. ~ A helicopter, by the way, has special propeller blades above and below the airplane, parallel with the ground. Thus, in rising, the! upper blades create a vacuum! ih the air, into which the plane rises. ‘With a helicopter plane, you} could Jand on the flat roofs of; ‘buildings or even settle slowly into, ‘the street. With a marvel like that, man would be a better flyer than a bird, for a bird glides outward when soaring into the air. i FAME YOU DESERVE _ The world knows nothing about) its greatest men. Our greatest are nét stars who live by exhibition of themselves and abilities, but! quiet people who think and work in modest seclusion. ‘Walkley, brilliant dramatic critic of the London Times, makes this observation. It is true. : History will remember the “great” men who plunged the world into the World war. History will paint in bright colors the men who cdrried on the work of destruction for more than four years. :But history will be strangely sil- ent about a greater than these—the plodders who now are patiently re- pairing fhe damages, toiling to re- build a civilization burned out to its very skeleton. The men who really are repair— ing the war’s damages are not the Prominent Gentlemen who get their names in the newspaper head— lines.. The real builders’ are the farmers toiling to restore food sup- ply to normal, the mechanics fur- nighing the materials to replace; money,—St, Paul Pioneer Preas... {them 5 0 |greatest character. | what was destroyed, and the unad- yertised millions contributing their daily mites to the war debt, A peculiar thing, is fame. vidual getting more than he de- serves, Watt is famous for inventing the steam engine.

Crave it not. What counts most fs personal satis- faction with what we have made of ourselves and our life’s work. We leave this world as we enter it —alone—and in the last analysis each man is his own best judge. RED-HEADS AND EFFICIENCY Red-heads are more efficient than blonds or brunets, says an official of a big insurance company. Historians sometimes wonder why there are so few red-headed gen- iuses, The answer is, because there are so few red-headed people to draw from. Red hair is usually a sure sign of keen wit, rapid thought, ingenu- ity and deep thinking. You never knew a red-head that was a dumb- bell. The sale of henna proves that outsiders are envious. RADIO Radio within a few months will make attractive livable territory out of 500,000 square miles.now so isolated that no one wants to live| there. So says A. H. Morse, managing director for Marconi interests, This probably will be the great- est field for wireless, until the day when invention permits universal sending as well as universal re- ceiving. The radio craze seems to be tak- ing a nap at present, Why? * “EDITORIAL REVIEW Comments reproduced in this column,may or may not express the gpirion of The) Tribune, They are presented heré in order that our readers may have both sides of important issues which ara || being discussed in the press of the day, 4 A CHANCE TO WORK—AND EAT North Dakota farmers are cla- moring for thousands of men from other states to come out there and help them harvest one of the larg- est general crops in the history of that state. Wages averaging $3.50 a@ day are being offered, the rail- roads induced to grant low fares and within another week or two every idle man in the northwest can be at work if he wants to be. It is said that about a million men in this country are on strike today, but all of them have to eat whether they work at their trades or not. One way some of them can assure their food supply is to go out where it grows.and do their part to harvest the crops.—Duluth Herald, COSTLY LEAGUE EXPERIMENT| The people of North Dakota are going to lose $275,000 through the state having engaged in the busi- ness of building homes on contract for fifty-four individuals, or $5,000 on ‘each house. Such is the result of the decision of District Judge | Thomas H. Pugh of Di¢kinson, that} the state cannot collect more than the contract price in each case, al- though the cost to the Home Build-| ing association, a branch of the! state government, was more than| twice as much on the average. It is the old story of waste and ex- travagance when any government goes into what is none of its busi-| ness. Judge Pugh held very properly that the state, like any individual, | should live up to the bargains it makes. The Home Building association, managed by state officials and! financed through the Bank of North | Dakota, was one of the pet schemes | of ‘the Nonpartisan league. It was) part of the “League program” of| which o much has been heard for the past six years. The theory was that the state could build more cheaply than contractors and on ‘better terms to the ‘buyer and that the contractor's profit would be eli- minated. A contractor, according to league ‘and socialist theory gen- erally, is entitled to no profit. | The buildings, which were esti-| mated to cost $250,000,: have cost! the state $325,000, Politicians and! those who work for them have to be paid well for their services. In- cidentally, a $25,000 house was built in Fargo for William Lemke, state boss of the Jeague, under a) law which limited the cost of such} homes to $5,000. “ As a means of meeting the short- age of homes in a whole state, the} fifty-four buildings are a joke, but| it will be no joke to the taxpayers | 'to furnish that $275,000, It appears jlike a donation of. $5,000 to each, ;person buying a home, but the! j buildings probably are not worth And) always it is unfair, the lucky indi-} THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE | | ‘The tariff on California nuts has nothing to do with Hollywood, Tate 5 Austrian crown is missing.

By Olive Barton Roberts The Fairy Queen had just told Nancy and Nick, that Flap-Doodle, the purple fairy who flew with his ears, had stolen her magic wand. And Nancy and Nick had offered to hunt it for her. “Do you. know where he went?” asked Nancy. “No, I don’t” answered the Queen, “That's the rouble.

He lives on a star called Tinky-Winkle, and its as full of hiding holes as a cream-puff.” i , “We have our Green Shoes,” de- clared Nick, “so it won’t matter how far away he is, We'll find him and get your wand.” “Good for you!” said the Magical Mushroom. “I'll take you as far as Tinky-Winkle and introduce you to some of the Tinky-Winklers. They are all queer people who look like Flap-Doodle. They’ fly with their ears, Only. instead of being purple, they are orange-colored.| Come on, we'd better go.” K Away they all sailed through the sky until the earth looked like a lit- tle round berry below them. At last they ‘came to the ‘Tinky- Winkle Star. It was a queer place. Much queer- er than the moon! It was flat like ‘a coffee-saucer and turned up at the edges. But what was the difference? If any of the Tinky-Winklers fell off, it wasn’t any worse than a sparrow falling off a roof. He could fly with his ears and get back on again in a hurry. Nancy and Nick and the Magical Mushroom landed right in the mid- dle of it and looked; around but no sign of a purple fairy could they see, (To Be Continued.) (Copyright, 1922, NEA‘ Service.)

BEGIN HERE TODAY ‘Lunch was over and the ,house— party guests were away on the golf ‘inks, Quiet reigned in The Red House while i MARK ABLETT, the bachelor own- er, and- g i MATT CAYLEY, his companion, awaited. the arrival of Mark’ ‘prother, zi on ‘ROBERT, who was returning from Australia after a 15 years’ ab- sence. Startled by Robert’s rough. ap- pearance, AUDREY STEVENS, the maid, ushered him into Mark’s office on his arrival. After an unsuccess- ful attempt to find Mark in the garden, Audrey returned to the house to, find the, other servants frightened by the sound of a re- volver shot and to hear Cayley pounding on the office door de- manding admittance. GO ON WITH THE STORY Whether Mark Ablett was a bore or not depended on the point of view, but it may be said at once that ha-never bored his company on the subject of his early life. How- ever, stories get about. There is always somebody who knows. It was said that, as a boy, Mark had attracted the notice, and patron- age, of some rich old spinster of the neighborhood who had paid for his education, both at school and university. At about the time when he was coming down from Cam- bridge, his father had died. Mark went to London, with an allowance from his patron, and made acquaintance with the money- lenders, He wag supposed, by his patron and any others who in- quired, to be “writing”; but what he wrote, other than letters asking for more time to pay, has never ‘been discovered, Fortunately (from Mark’s point of view) his patron died during his third year in London, and left him, all the money he wanted. He set- tled accounts with the money- lenders, abandoned his crop of wild oats to the harvesting of others, and became in his turn a patron. He patronized the Arts, Editors were now offered free contributions as_ well as free lunches; promising. young paint- ers and poets dined with him; and he even took a theatrical company on tour, playing ‘host and “lead” with equal lavishness. His patronage included Matthew Cayley, a small cousin of thirteen. He sent the Cayley cousin to school and Cambridge. Cayley at twenty-three, looked after his cousin’s affairs. By this time Mark had bought The Red House. Cayley superintended the necessary staff. He was not quite secretary, not quite land agent, not quite business adviser, not quite companion, but something of all four. Cayley was now twenty-eight, but had all the appearance of forty, which was his’patron’s age. Spas- modically they entertained a good ‘deal at The Red House, Let us have a look at them as they came dowf to that breakfast, of which ready given us a glimpse. The first to appear was Major Rumbold, a tall, gray-haired, gray- mustached, silent man, who lived on hig retired pay. He had got to the next arrival. This was Bill Beverley, a cheerful young man in made easier by the use of Lydia F. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. much more than was paid for them.

Major.’ She ; “Ag I was telling him,” began Bill, “that’s where—Hallo, here’s Betty. Morning, Cayley.” § Betty Calladine and Cayley had come in together. Betty’ was the eighteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. John Calladine, widow of the paint- er, who was acting hostess on this occasion for Mark. Ruth Norris took herself seriously as an actress and, on her holidays, seriously as a golfer. She was quite competent as either. “By the way, the car will be round at 10:30,’ said Cayley, look- ing up from his letters, “You're lunching there, and driving back directly afterward. Isn't that right?” Mark came in. He was generally the last. He greeted them and sat down to toast and tea, Breakfast was not his meal. The others chat- tered gently while he read his let- ters, q Seen eee en eee ALC RIGH Ir You want Hy. It’s going to be dashed ; 1° “Good God!” said/Mark sudden- of heads toward him. “I say, Cay!” He was frowning. He held up a letter and shook it. “Who do you think this is from?” Cayley shrugged his shoulders. How could he possibly guess? “Robert,” said Mark, “I thought he was in Australia, or somewhere.” “Of course. So did I.” He looked across at Rumbold. “Got any brothers, Major?” “No.” “Well, take my advice, and don’t} have any.” “Not likely to now,” said the Ma-, r. ‘Bill laughed.” Miss Norris said politely: “But you /haven’t any ‘prothers, Mr. Ablett?” “One,” said Mark grimly. “If; you're ‘back in time you'll see him this afternoon, He’ll probably ask you to lend him five pounds. Don't.” Everybody felt a little uncom- fortable. “All the same,” said Betty a little daringly, “it must be rather fun having a skeleton in the cupboard.” Mark looked up, frowning. “It you think it’s fun, I'll hand him over to. you, Betty. If he’s nything like he used to be, and ke his few letters/have been—; well, Cay knows,” Cayley grunted. “all I know was that one didn’t ask questions about him.” Itymay have been meant as a hint to any too, curious.guest not to ask more questions, or a reminder to his host not to talk too freely in front of strangers, although he gave it the sound of a mere state- ment of fact. But the subject dropped. At about the time when Mark and his cousin were at their business at The Red House, an attractive gentleman of the name of Antony Gillingham was -handing up his ! EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO | HA! Loo Vve GOT A Bie ve Got A BITS! Sverer (rT — 1 eee ee | WF There was an instinctive turning | jticket at Woodham station and ask- ing the way to the village. He is an important person to this story, so that it is well we should know something about him at the top of ‘the hill on some excuse, and have ja good look at him. The first thing we realize {s that he is doing more of the looking than we are. Above a clean-cut, clean-shaven face, he carries a pair |of gray eyes which seem to be ab- sorbing every detail of our person. To strangers, this look is almost alarming at first, until they discov- er that his mind is very often else- where; that he has, so to speak, left his eyes on guard, while he himself follows a train of thought in another direction. He had seen a good deal of the world with those eyes, When at he age of twenty-one he came into mother’s money, £400 a year, old Gillingham looked up from the “Siockbreeders’ Gazette” to ask |him what he was going to do. “See the world,” said Antony. “Well, send me a line from Amcrica, or wherever you get to. “Right,” said Antony, Old Gillingham returned to his paper, Antony, however, had no Inten- tion of going farther away than London. His idea of seeing the world was to see, not countries, but people; and to see them from as many angles as ‘possible. There are all sorts if you know how to look at them. So Antony looked at them—from .various ‘strange cor- ners; from the viewpoint of the valet, the newspaper reporter, the waiter, the shop assistant. With the independence of £400 a year behind him, he enjoyed it immense- ly. He was now thirty. He had come to Woodham for a holiday, because he liked the look of the station. farther, but. Woodham attracted him.’ Why.not get out? The landlady of “The George” was only too glad to put him up. While he was finishing his lunch, the landlord came in to ask him about the luggage. Antony ordered another pint of beer and soon had him talking. “It must be rather fun to keep a country inn,” he said, thinking that it was about time he started: an- other profession, “‘You ought to take a holiday.” “Funny thing you're saying that,” said the landlord, with a. smile. “Another gentleman, over from The Red House, was saying that only yesterday. Offered’to take my place an all.” He laughed rumblingly. “The Red House? Not The Red House, Stanton?” “That’s right, sir. Stanton’s the next station to Woodham. The Red House is about a mile from here— Mr. Ablett’s.” Antony took a letter from his pocket. It was addressed from The Red House, Stanton,” and {signed “Bill.” “Good old Bill,” he murmured to himself, “He's getting on.” Antony had met Bill Beverley two years before in a tobacconists shop. Gillingham-was on one side of the counter and Mr. Beverley on the other, Something about Bill, his youth and freshness, perhaps, attracted Antony; and when cigar- ettes had been ordered, and an ad- dress given to which they were to be sent, he remembered that he had come across an aunt of Beverley’s once at a country house. He and Antony quickly became intimate. But Bill generally addressed him as “Dear Madman” when he hap- pened to write. Antony decided to stroll over to The Red House after lunch and call upon his friend, As he came down. the drive and approached the old red-brick front of the house, there was a lazy mur- mur of bees in the flower-borders, a gentle cooing of pigeons in the tops of the elms, and from distant lawns the whir of mowing machine, that most restful of all country sounds... .. And in the hall a man was bang- ing at a locked door, land shouting, “Open the door, I say; open the door!” “ “Halo!” said Antony in amaze- ment.
