THE STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) THOUGHTS ON THE CONSTITUTION The American constitution is no exception to the rule that everything which has power to win the obedience and respect of men must have its roots deep.in the past, and that the more slowly every ‘ihs@#tution has grown, so much the more enduring is‘ft likely to prove. There is little in this constitution that is absolutely new, there is much that is as old as the Magna Charta, —James Bryce. DETROIT Kresge Bldg. ye TF “* *’YQUR FEARS \ , é ‘baby 100'days”old, Marylin Jean Anderson, falls off h failroad ‘bridge into the river at. Chippewa Falls, Wis. _Water is warm. She enjoys herself, evidently thinks she’s *{n a bathtub. She kicks happily. That keeps her afloat. Rescued. A grown-up, ‘unabl to..swim, would have drowned. ‘Why? Because: fear fvquid counteract the animal ability to swim that is born in all of us. Frightened, the grown-up iavould yell and empty his lungs of the air necessary to keep him afloat. | Fear drowns more people than water. $i Blondin walked across a cable suspended above Niagara Falls. The rest of us would get frightened, lose our balance “and drown. But we could walk the same cable stretched only a foot above safe ground. It isn’t the difficulty of walking on a cable that make peo- ple fall. They topple off because they fear danger. In a canoe, wind is more dangerous than rough waves. , But the average person doesn’t know this. So he feels safer ‘Swhen canoeing in a stiff wind. The feeling of safety helps him, keep his treacherous craft balanced. aes : Fear indreases, by many times, the hazard of a danger- ‘lous: situation, That’s' because fear involves loss of confi- ‘dence in our ability to conquer the dangerous situation. ! Confidence in self is what makes the man of average or ‘even inferior ability rise to greater success than the timid 4ndividual with exceptional abilities, natural gifts or skilled “slaps 3 _{training. : i Never: frighten aychild: aF ) i:itself: Fear malte failure in life almost inevitable. “confidence is the key’to achievement, to success. ; THE LEADER Up in the Hudson Bay country, the wild geese are flying jouth. Unless instinct is fooling them, winter is coming };soon. ’ Oe “ The wild geese ttavel in:a V formation with;one side of ithe V shorter than the other, like a broken wishbone. The ‘geese follow a leader. Shoot that leader and a new one inakes his place. The geese fly over woods in which timber wolves follow a wintertime leader, also over lakes in which #¥ish swim in schools with leaders piloting the way. Leadership — government — is not a creation of man’s Gntellect. It is an instinct. THat’s why anarchists, opposed to all government, make such slow headway that it isn’t sheadway at all. . ALCOHOL IN MODERATION Liquor lifts civilized man out of the rut, says Lord Daw- ‘son of Penn, distinguished physician to the King of England. ; Hig idea is that in our age of specialization, with high-pres- pure industry making us cram 12 hours into six, the mind of 4gnan at the end of the day is running in a single groove or frut. “Alcohol.in moderation gets that man out of the track it livens his mental touch,” says Lord Dawson. : ? tYes, and after lifting him out of the rut, it pushes him sack deeper than he was before. Alcoholic stimulation has its equivalent-reaction $o as far below‘par or normal as the! idrink raises the drinker above par. The truth is learned in| \ he cold gray dawn of the morning after.

Wall Stre knowledge of farming must neces- sarily be greater and more exact gothe: its at in order to carry on busine: But let us concede this not so. The farmer, i turn, will grant ‘that Wall S' at least knows something about credit. The farmer ought to know | something about credit, and this is| the time of year when he should! be instructed.

But these small bankers are at the mercy of popular rumor precisely as Wall Street is, on occasion. It would be possible in Wall Street to dam- age, and ultimately to ruin, the} credit of the most solvent corpor- | ation. A dexterously conductad | campaign of depr on and false! inference might easily make it| possible for the packers to carry | on business, in view of the sm.ll margin of profit on their immense turnover. It is possible to damage . the | farmer's business in the same way. It is possible to spread rumors about his financial condition which j will so scare the small banker | thet he will lend the farmer less | money and charge more for lend- | When, therefore, Sen:tor art bawls all over the coun- try that the farmer is broke. that he lost, by deflation, $32,000,000,090, or more than half of the total value of all the farms in the United!

Brookhart throws a_ successful scare into the small banker ant the credit of every farmer in the United States is injured. Observe how one of the com- monest expressions current among} farmers is turned to their disad-| vantages. The indiyidual farmer} may know Wall ‘Street’ whose standards of honor are of the! highest.’ ’ But he’ listens to contin-) ual vituperation of Wall. Street and finally says that “where there is so much smoke there mus: be some flame.” In the next few weeks, thanks to Senator Brook- hart, Senator Capper and other vociferous “friends” of the farm- er, the banker to whom he goes to @iscoant his note “will <mevitably say the same thing to him. “You | \farmens may not all be broke, a8|iniw her and he Brookhart says; fut where there is so much smoke there must be some flame.” ‘ Frankly, how will the farmer like that? It is not Wall Street that has damaged his credit. It 1s the very men he returned to Con- gress, © smash the credit of Wall Street, 10, have done him this ill) turn, the banker will only} advance him 30% on is collat- eral instead of 50 per cent, cl ing the highest rates the law a lows and making the most onerous terms for repayment, the farmer will know that he is dealing in 2} credit market demoralized ‘by his own representatives, from Minne- sota, and elsewhere.

THE CRISIS IN OKLAHOMA When martial law js declared throughout one of our states and the, military all civil functions one must assum either that a great ciyic crisis co! fronts the state or ‘its governor has committed the supreme blun- der. Evidence’ that cam be adduced from telegraphic. geports tends to suggest thet a crisis does confront Oklahoma and ‘that Governor Wal- ton had no alternative to martial law if constitutional government is to prevail in the state. It is not a forceful defense of! the clan to say that it haz not been | convicted of the wholesile assaults against life and iproperty in open defiance of law, committed with aj degree of brutality that borders on barbarism. It cannot be denied that these crimes are done in the name of the clan by men pobed in ways, in centerg that are dominat- ed ‘by clan influence. Denial .of responsibility’ avails af the clan ex- erted the scantest ififluence for law and order, as it pretends to do, it would run down and bring to book the crimimals who wear its robes than that of all the farmers put to-) that Wall| Street knows nothing about farm-| ve SE PON POT IN AS Shee wow sAioTangle LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO BEATRICE GRIMSHAW DEAR BEE: I was very much interested in tHe clipping you sent me from “Film- land.” I never met Miss Perier as, just at the time I was married@;)shie left the’ city for New York.

I think she said it was from Whittier, an old-fash- ioned poet, who is now forgotten, It went something like. this: re- “Men are only boys grown tall, “Hearts don’t change .much after all.” It is very probable that on the surface Dick has been thrilled with the new kind of women they say the moving picture life makes of the feminine sex, but I still believe that down in every man’s heart there is, a kind of love for the old-fashioned girl that can never be ti eradicated. Dick has for you, I am sure. This love has reverence and re- spect and tenderness and regard in it, It is a love that is always in a man’s heart, once he has it, for the one woman and if we women could only understand this, how much happier we would be. If we could only understand that these flights of ‘fancy were just’ on the surface ind that a man comes back as sure- ly as a homing pigeon to the place jend the woman he loves, provided she will Tet him, provided she stays the, same woman to whom he. told his, love, we would be much happier.

I'm very good at preach- Jing, in fact I'm preaching quite as much to myself us Iam to you in this letter, Not that Juck has ever given,,.me any feeling of unrest in the matter, but because someway, down, deep in my heart, I feel that this great happiness of mine is too good to last. Again and again I say to myself, nothing is too ‘good to last. Only things that are too bad cannot last long. i Do you think this is so? ‘Lovingly, LESLIE.

Starring, secretary-manager of the South Da- kota Farm Bureau federation. Last year South Dakota produced 1,834,000 bushels of flax valued at $8,686,000. The 1923 acreage is to be greater than that for 1922, about her brown feathers and her plain family. “Why doesn’t your husband stay with you?” teased Chatterbox. “Is it because he’s ugly, too, and ashamed of being seen?
