BURNS AN) CONSIDER BURLEIGH COUNTY The stability shown in Burleigh county and in Bisma evidenced by financial strength of big institutions, in- creased building in the city, good tax payments, lack of unemployment has been the subject of remarks by many visitors to Bismarck last fall and this winter. The situation is, however, not surprising if the factors are considered. Burleigh county was awarded second place in the state corn show. Her fine corn and known facts as to the acreage, are sufficient to point out the tremendous value of the corn crop to the county. Fair crops in many products, increased sales of milk, turkeys, hogs, livestock,. plenitude of feed —all these are factors which have’ added to the stability of the county. It is generally agreed that agriculture is not prosperous gen- erally — it would be foolish to contend that it is— but the conerete evidence in Burleigh county, at least, is that con- ditions are not as bad as many have painted. The $100,000 rip-rapping job on the river, the city’s waterworks plant, the heavy building—these have absorbed much surplus labor and have steadied the situation. Also Burleigh county people generally got down to bed- rock two years ago. The after-the-war inflation ceased here and elsewhere in western North Dakota before it did in many sections. The peak of her troubles was passed long ago. corn, hogs, cattle, dairying, poultry, with a rotation of crops corn, hogs, cattle, dairying, poultry, with a rotation of crops which includes grain raising.

THE INVESTIGATION MANIA Fear that opposition to an in- ion will be construed ag an n that there is need for s a bit of psychology that the promoters of those congressional probes thoroughly understand. As a consequence congress i aid to be threatened with no 1 fi investigations covering prac- | tically every bureau and commis- | sion of the government. Everybody knows that in the ma- jority s no useful end is at- tained. The government holes are cluttered with which have consumed weeks and months of time public all out of proportion to the benefit accruing. Too much investigation may be as unprofitable as too much legis- lation, more especially as the one provokes the other.—Lowell Even- ing Ledge: pigeon Setretary Denby has issued an order to the superintendent at An- napolis to the effect that any mid- shipman found guilty of being un- der the influence of intoxicating liquor or having liquor in his possession within the limits of the academy grounds will be subject | to dismissal from the academy and from the naval force.

It ought to be uppermost in Burleigh county at a time when the oppor- tunity for great development lies just ahead. Her fertile acres, where as fine corn can be grown as anywhere in the United States, her broad pastures in which as fine hogs. cattle and turkeys can be produced as any section, will within the next few years be the means of attracting many farmers now struggling in states to the south under the burden of too high priced land. Land values will rise. And many who now believe they are burdened by holding too much land may within the next few years profit immensely. WOMAN’S LURE What qualities of womanhood are most attractive to men? A reader, asking this question, says in his letter to the editor: “I gather, from movies and fiction and news, stories, that the most admirable traits or qualities in a man are bravery, brains, honor and loyalty. Please write about the most desirable characteristics of a woman. What must she possess to be an ideal sweetheart and wife?” Every woman gives a lot of thought to this problem. The great philosophers have pondered it. Pooling.authorities: The most attractive and desirable qualities in a woman are modesty, love, beauty, loyalty, poise, reserve, companionship, personal magnetism — and mystery. Men, courting women for their future wives and mothers| of their children, instinctively seek, first of all, love, mod- esty, companionship and loyalty. Beauty is the biological lure. But isn’t its influence usally over-rated? Consider the multitude of men who are quite contented to pass up the beauties and marry women only moderately attractive. Of course, for the homeliest woman in the world, there’s ae ma who’ll consider her the most attractive. Yes, love is blind. Handsome men frequently marry homely women. Bril- liant men often marry women with very little brains. Prac- tical women marry impractical men. Beauties mate with commonplace males. Tall women with short husbands. Tall husbands with short wives. Good marries bad. Small won- der, love baffles the philosophers« In the last analysis, all this contradictory state of affairs is merely nature evening things up—restoring the balance between the sexes—preventing the race from veering too far from the normal or average appearances, mentality, emo- tion and character. FEW GET EDUCATION We talk about this; being a great country for education. But 561 out of every 1000 boys and girls who enter high school quit and go to work before they graduate.

It shows that he has made an exten- sive study of conditions and that he is keeping an alert eye on de- velopments growing out of what he understands to be an unmistakable agricultural emergency. One of the outstanding features of the special message is the Pres- ident’s emphasis of the point that this emergency is properly the concern, not merely of the farmers of the Northwest, or even of the entire business and economic in- terests of the Northwest, but in a very large measure of the country as a whole. It is in this larger purview of the situation that he summons ‘both governmental agen- cies and private enterprise to the rescue of those who have fallen victims to an abnormal complex of circumstances. It is not at all in the purpose of President Coolidge to be an. alarm- ist. He ig well aware that many of the farmers of the Northwest are operating on a profitable basis. Where there is dairying or other phases of diversified farming the farmers are making their way, but there is a large number, not so Postured, who have given way un- der the strain and who need out- side ald to put them again on solid economic footing. Timely relief for them will be timely relief also| for non-agricultural interests who ‘have done what they could to car- ty them along and tide them over, if possible, to better things. The President invokes assistance for the interwoven interests that have suffered, and are still suffering, in common. He thelieves there is a broad field for a co-operative ef- fort, the effect of which would be felt distinctly for good by all the co-operating agencies which may undertake the work of mutual helofulness. When President Coolidge sug- gests a broad program for imme- diate relief to relax the stress of the emergency, the does not for a minute lose sight of the fact that diversification is fundamentally necessary for sound agricultural4 reconstruction in the Northwest; or, in other words, indispensable He indorses the pending plan for gov- ;ernment aid in promotion of the movement to balanced farming, but he desifes that it, a9 well as other relief measures, shall be so drawn as to safeguard adequately It has to do with happiness.

I arrived at your place about five é’clock in the afternoon and was Just opening your vaulg when, with- out any warning, Jack came in, Nat- urally he looked surprised and very suspicious, I informed him that I had made some stupendous sales and I did not want to deposit the money in the bank right away and that I was sure you would not mind my using the vault for a night or two. He jumped at the conclusion that Harry was sending me money and that I did not want to deposit it, on account of Harry's creditors who might attach it. He said immediate- ly, “You needn’t feel at all alarmed 2Aio Tangle». ubout me, Ruth, although I am Harry's largest creditor, but I would rather you would not leave the money in,Leslie’s wall safe.

In doing so that trouble- some pearl fell upon the floor, Fortunately it was rolled up in tissue paper. Jack and I both stoop- ed for it and reached it at about the same time—at least our heads came together with a terrible concussion. “I beg your pardon,” I said. Jack was so angry that I knew he would burst if he didn’t swear, so I said, “Go ahead and say it.” “And he certainly said it, Ruth. In a voice of cutting coldness he mentioned that he hoped he would never find me prying into his wife’s secret hiding places again when she was away. In fact, that he would feel better if he knewhis wife never met me again, I fled and there the matter stands. Sorry, but that’s all. RUTH. but the interests of the general public.

Once. while he was gazing into the fire he felt sure that she was examining his profile. He made no pretensions to handsomeness, but he rather prided himself on his nose, the long fine straight nose of the Claverings. His brow was alsu good, but although his hair was black, his eyes were bye, and he would have preferred to have black eyes, as he liked consistent types, Otherwise he was one of the “biack Claverings.” Northumbrian in ¥ri- gin and claiming descent from the Bretwaldes, overlords of Britain, the Claverings were almost as fair as their Anglican ancestors, but once in every two or three gen- erations a completely dark member appeared, resurgence of the an- cient Briton; sometimes associated with the high stature of the strong. er Nordic race, occasionally—par. ticularly among the women—al- most squat. Clavering haa been spared’ the smal! statnre and the small too narrow head, but saving his steel blue eyes—trained to. look keen and Lard—ho was as dark a any . Mediterranean. His mouth was well shaped and closely set but capable of relaxation and look. ed as if it might once have been full and sensitive. It too had been severely trained. The long face was narrower than the.long ad- mirably proportioned head. It was by ‘no means as disharmontic. a type as Gora Dwight’s; the blending of the*races was far more subtle, and when making one of his brief visita tq Europe he was generally taken for an Englishman, never for a member of the Latin peoples; éx- cept possibly in the north of France, where his type, among those Norman descendants of Norse and Danes, was not uncom- mon. Nevertheless, although his northern inheritance predominated, he was conscious at times of a certain affinity with the race that two thousand years ago had Met and mingled with his own. He turned his eyes swiftly and met hers. She colored faintly and dropped her lids.
