The trend has een away from respect for fixed institutions. — Soap box ‘orators have denounced the constitution and radicals every- where are seeking i nullify the operation of our organic faw through limiting the powers of courts to declare cer- tain laws unconstitutional. eee Under the direction of the American Bar Association constitution week is being fostered throughout the nation by those who believe that the American plan as conceived by the federal fathers is better than the methods proposed by the extreme school whose motto is to break down con- #titutional checks and balances and with them represent- ative government, setting up as it were a tyranny of the minority. ? There has grown up out of a disrespect for law generally, She familiar adage: ‘What is the constitution between friends.” This week, if its promoters dre successful, should Sawaken a greater respect for the constitution even though the eighteenth amendment has brought its operation closer home than before to many millions who never felt; as oignantly as now that the constitution does restrain minor- ity desires presumably for the greater good of the majority. _” As long as the prohibition amendment is part of the Sconstitution, its recognition is as binding upon us all as other articles and amendments which guard the fundamental rights and privileges of American citizens. aes x By all means an earnest study of the constitution this “week, but with it a preachment against ill advised and sud- ‘Sden tampering with the organic law to fit every vagary or “whim. The present constitution can be’ amended as rapidly as is advisable, the nineteen amendments and their scope _prove that. Those’ who clamor for direct amendment by ballot are not the friends and upholders of constitutional government. North Dakota’s experience in amendment by that route has been anything but beneficial. The sessions of the American Bar Association in Minne- apolis recently deplored sudden and extreme changes at be- chest of radicals and theorists and it is to combat this trend Ahat constitutional week is dedicated. \ . ON THE AVIATION MAP Through the cooperation of the Association of Com- -merce, Fort Lincoln: may become an aviation station in the transcontinental flights. Yesterday an army aviator made this city one of his controls ‘and the use of the fort for that -purpose can be broadened. Secretary Bradley of the’association has been in close touch with these flights and has personally given aviators ‘every assistance so that Bismarck will be known as a city which cooperates in these experiments to perfect the science of aviation. . There are few fields that afford a better landing than Fort Lincoln and the foresight in putting Bismarck on these air routes between coast points may work out more bene- ficially than appears on the surface now. i GENEROUS AMERICA : -Probably the best knockout the pessimists can have who deplore the “inadequacies” of present times is the generous response of America to'the call from Japan for relief-in the hour of need. Within a few days the quota set by the Red ‘Cross'was passed and double would have been forthcoming fad the necessity demanded-~ - == :There have been many artigles in select magazines about the lack of soul in America and the absence of high purposes ‘aad noble impulses generally as an aftermath of the war. ‘Greed and selfish individualism have been pictured as Amer- deals besetting sins, and then comes an example of charity in Eaod will toward men that knocks these critics off their tals. Bismarck).... 5.00 6.00 mH 2 SYSTEM WRONG -.:A brick weighs quite a bit and should be manufactured @s near as possible to the. place where it is used in building. So something is radically wrong with our “system” when three million bricks a month are imported into New York , Rita foreign countries. That's what has. been happen- jis year. 3 x t sz. ‘Shortage of bricks” is a poor excuse. If we can’t even wake our own bricks, the outlook for American industry is wher sad when it comes to commodities requiring more te manufacturing skill. -\ “ MODERN CHANGES, : ee cable eget ry Pyciie Mi} capete vith ra ie advan 8] n radio, also lag oe gestion This Ky bat s Owen General.

TNere has been a change. During the past week a Minneapolis syndicate offered $1,- 600,000 in North Dakota bonds and within t¥enty-four hours all were sold. The fact shows that people have confidence in North Dakota and that the state has regaimed its former standing in the financial world. There never wae anything the matter with North, Dakota, any more than there fs with Minnesota Q jor South Dakota, otfier than ‘the cireuinstances that ‘placed the ad- ministration of the state’s affairs in the hands of @ group of incom- petents and theorists. There was never any question ag to the phys- ical ability of the state to, back up its bonds arid meet all payments, but there was a serious lack of confidence in the state administra- tion. To Governor Nestos and his co-workers must’ be credited the regeneration of the state's finan- cjal credit. One feature ‘that should not be overfooked when North Dakota's financial position is reviewed is that during short period when it was dominat- ed by the Nonpartisan League there was no advance in its land values as there was in Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota, and other states. ‘Therefore, dhere has been no re- cession, but rather, progression in values. The bonded indebtedness of the state is comparatively small, much smaller than that of the average state. North Dakota hag learned a lesson and it ig not likely that its bonded indebtedness will ever be allowed to become so great as to ibe burdensome to its taxpayers. Therein may ibe found one reason why: North Dakota’s bonds were so quickly absorbed in the Minneapolis market.—Commer- cial West. ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS By Olive Roberts Barton Mister Gallop, the cowboy fairy, stoppeg his pony suddenly and mo- tioned to the Twins to do likewise. Then he put his finger over his lips and nodded toward a cead tree that hung crookedly over the mountain path where they were riding. There sat Chatterbox Magpie in his gorgeous coat of black, white and red, acting like a bad school boy. For although Chatterbox is a frieng of both mountain folk ana plains folk, the birds hate him. He treats them shamefully. And. just. now he was making fun of Misses Gadabout Grouse, and her eight bréwn children, ~ “Ha, ha, ha! Ho, ho, ho!” laughed Chatterbox in hig high, creaky voice. “Why doesn’t .your husband stay at home, Missez Grouse? Is it be- cause you have a bad disposition or just because you and your children are so ugly? Why, you're just a plain speckled brown, all of you, and when I look down from my perch I can hardly tel] you are there. Ground birds, that’s what you are! Ugh!” “Why, we have a good reason for staying on the ground, Mister Mag- pie,” answered Missez Grouse meek- ly. “It’s because we can’t fly so very well and, therefore, can’t gev out of the way of hawks or eagles, or any big bird that might chase us We know We match the ground and that’s why we stay close to it—so we'll be safe)” “Well, then, is it because you gad about go that Mister Grouse doesn’t stay at ‘home?” asked Chatterbox curiously. “Is that how you got your name?” “Oh, no, sir!” said Missez Grouse. “It isn’t my name, but my hus- band’s name.. I took his name when we were married. It’s his name that is Gadabout, not mine. I only go around to get food for my fam- ily. But with him it’s different.” “Ah, ha!” exclaimed Chatterbox quickly. “So that’s it, is it? He is juat a sporty fellow who won't stay at home and likes to keep bachelor’s hall, Um h’mj” I knew there was a scandal somewhere! “No, that’s not it all!” declared Missez Grouse, indignant at last. He has a good reason for leaving us here alone ang going off by himself high in the mountains.” Tl tell you tomorrow what the Twins heard her say then. (To Be Continued.)

It had a very interesting story in it about‘ that young woman called . Paula Perier, of whom I asked you ‘in my last let- ter. .She seems to have mmde-quite a furore out in Hollywood>=" Dick writes me that the=gtrl Hts beauty, spirituality and intellect, He seems quite taken with her talent. , It is a queer kind of life that'Ditk has been hurled into out the¥e, Les- lie. From what he writes; me!I en fee that everyono-is living vp ito hit last ounce of nervous energy. | Dick’s letters do not seem like Dick at all—my Dick, whom I have always thought was the very essence of calmness and contentment—I can. see he is getting all mixed up in hig ideas. His thoughts aid conclusions are as jerky as the sentences in his letters. Sometimes, Leslie dear, I'am very sorry that I either did not go with Dick to “Los,” as he calls it, or else persuade him \to stay here. You see, he said he would do just as I wanted him to in the matter. He left it td me, Leslie, but I, knowing that he wanted to go very badly, of course “go.” Why is it; Leslie, that a loving, woman, if she is called upon to de- cide a question for her man, always waits until she knows. what he wants to do and then tells him that is the thing for him? I thought at the time that my only objection to the whole scheme was the long, lonely three months I would have to ‘spend before’ I could join Dick. I know now that in the back of my head was always 9 feeling that when thp UY Don't You Use 2 CATING AS WITH A SPOON \LS veRY 1 FORK TO GaT THOSe It Maybe Against All Scientific Laws But— time came for me to join him, it would be like joining a stranger. He has gone into a different world, a world where people think differently, @ndeed their whole trend of action as well as thought ig-away from the prosaic and com- monplace. Perhaps you are saying, Leslie dear, that I am a little bit afraid to have:my Dick out there among those pretty girls. We hear so much about thisisex appeal, Even Dick has got theijargon of the screen and he Writes me that this or that girl will notdmake a good picture actress, that ‘she has no sex appeal. ‘Just what it is 1 do not know, but it)seems to me that the word might beemade synonymous with’ feminine pefsonality. You know I have never posed as a beauty and I have dream- edi'that Dick cared for me because of my kind. I wonder if there is a personal magnetism that makes a greater appeal than does a clear thind and sympathetic spirit? Oh, Leslie, Leslie, like poor Dick ¥ im all mixed up. . Your loving, BEE.
