North Dakota has recognized the importance of a strong organization to encourage tourist traffce over the Na- tional Parks Highway, and to create a spirit of cooperation among the citics along the trail. to the coast which will result | in the tourists finding a royal welcome, good treatment, anid ) correct information concerning the territory through which they are passing. The present organization of the National Parks Highway Association has made important progress in strengthening the appeal of this highway. North Dakota is interested in good facilities for tourists from the standpoint of ordinary hospitalit he also recognizes the value of tourist traffi¢ | to business in general, and the opportunity offered to spread information concerning the staté which will aid in the immi- gration campaigns. CURE A cure for cancer will be discovered within a few year: predicts Dr. Charles H. Mayo. That would save 100,000 lives HON in the United States. The great terror, tuberculos will also be conquered in time. Possibly by inventing a way to get sunlight down into the lungs. Ixposed to the sun’s rays, the tuberculosis germ dies in a few minutes. ~ And after we stamp out cancer, tuberculosis and other dread destroyers, nature will send entirely new diseases to take their place. She wants to keep us fighting constantly to survive, and her reserve armies are unlimited. Flu ar- rived shortly after several fatal fevers and smallpox were gotten under control. DEADLY al inventors claim they have discovered a “death ray” which. swung like a searchlight, would start fires, ex- plede amidun t'on and kill enemy soldiers miles away. It’s not a new claim, You recall the F-ray, so widely discussed | before the World War. Sever It is frequently suggested that science may make war so |‘ deadly and destructive that no nation would dare start fight: | ‘ing. War would become mutual suicide. It’s not impossible. | Lut, first, nations would have to agree to have on secrets inj! ‘their. war offices, otherwise, there’d be individual advan-| , tages. f War, like other evils, is perpetuated by secrecy, JINNI An electric machine that lays as-many bricks as 20 masons is being marketed in the building~trades.

The great farm or making a serious error if think that there is room in tional ‘politics for a party, faction, bloc, call it what you will, existing the: r going to get anywhere in national politics, will have to be in and through his political convictions on the welfare of all. The bloc idea is rotting the foundations of American govern- ment. We have entirely too many blocs as it is, manufacturing blocs, labor blocs, cotton blocs and so on, What we need js a return to the idea that a government can con- duct itself for the welfare of every one. What we liave is the idea that government exists to be black mailed by active minorities with special interests.

DAUGHERTY'S AVOIDANCE The letter which ex-Attorney General Daugherty sent to the Senate committee yesterday de: clining to be a witness before it bears the marks of having ‘been ‘itten by his counsel. It is large- ly a lawye plea. Based upon, the decision of an Ohio Judge holds that the Senate commit! been acting ultra vires that therefore it has no powe: take the testimony of Mr. Daugh- | erty or submit him to cross-exim- ination, At the same time the for- mer Attorney General takes o sion to deny in the most fo1 and explicit. manner thi tions and innuendoes which have} been so freely received by the Sen- | ate committee against his official | conduct and personal Mr. Daugherty denounces 3 This is typical of the history of applied inventions. You picture a future race with nothing to do except run machines, make them, mine and prepare ores and grow food. These tasks can be made easier by machinery, but never displaced by it. There’ll always be plenty of work, though a one-hour workday may be the rule a long time after we're all “dead and forgotten. EXPENSIVE Fifty thousand dollars was paid by a Michigan man for a single strawberry plant. He has since spent $40,000 im- | proving it. The purpose, of course, is more and better berries. More attention is paid to crops and livestcok than to the pecple who eat them. For every $1 spent to save babies’ | lives by instructing mothers, probably $100 is spent in fight- ing hog cholera, boll weevil, plant-life blights and the like. DRY The college boy who totes a hip flask is getting attention. Students are being organized into dry clans, pledged to up- hold the prohibition laws, in many eastern colleges. Mem- bers agree to refuse drinks. This is the only way the coming generation can be kept from Demon Rum. Prohibition is nine-tenths a problem of education—of drinking rather than making and selling fire- water. d BONUS . “Handling soldier bonus called bigger job than the draft,” says a headline. That'll probably be the case. Uncle Sam is apt to be a heap sight more careful hand- Jing dclars: than he was handling drafted men during the war. The cheapest commodity is human life, when a, war’s on. That’s because we have a democracy except when we need it most. BONUS The soldier bonus will cost about $1.10 a year for every American man, woman and child, according to estimates. Rather cheap insurance for protecting 108 million lives and some 320 billion dollars worth of national wealth. It’ll all go back to its source—the people. Out of one *. pocket, into the other. DUSTY In the air above each square mile of the average city there are 950 tons of dust. So estimates United States Public Health Service. < This will not surprise any woman who does her own housework. | {SEBO ee The leap year girl doesn’t believe in “Love one another” “gs ‘reuch:2s in-“Love one or another.” . charges as vile slander he appears to admit that some of them could be, disproved only by | summoning a witness from the grave. In all this Mr. Paugherty’s legal position may be entirely correct; und defensible, but there can be no mistaking the judgment which the | public will form of _his| moral position. He had} clamored for @n_ opportun- ity to appear before the commit- tee in order to face and demolis his assailants. Until recently he had borne himself as would a proud and innocent man cager to meet and disprove every charge that could ‘be made against him. But now that the ghance is at last offered him, he declines to avail himself of it. His reasons may be good in law, but they are certainly ‘dad in the forum of public opinion. This decision not to tes 11 seem to many a tacit admission that some at least of the sinister sus- picions thrown upon his course and his companions at Washington are not without foundation. ‘Those who from the first insisted that all his rights should ‘be respected ‘by © Senate committee have now to reckon with the fact that when the time came for him to maintain the greatest of all his rights—the right to an unsullied — reputation—he chose to resort to legal avoidance. -—New York Tim ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Nancy and Nick, now no bigger than little mice since they had put oh the magic shoes, hopped up on the window-sill of their room beside Johnny Jump Up, the garden fairy. “Now climb down the rose-vine,” commanded the jolly little fellow. So down they went in the moon- light, the three of them, and soon they came to the garden, “This is my house—this is where I live,” shouted» Johnny Jump. Up, running toward a large violet plant with big nodding purple violets. And then’ suddenly the Twins no- ticed something very strange. The violet plant was in the shape of a house.

We hope you ‘have a_ nice , Goodby.” \ “Goodby,” called Nancy and Nick, but they couldn’t wait to say another word, for with a couple of bounds Johnny Jump Up had reached the other side of the garden where a row of tulips stood in a stiff straight row like soldiers. They were red and yellow and; their gorgeous cups looked like gold with ruby wine spilled over. “Why, they were only buds this one.” cried Johnny Jump Up, Suddenly the eyes of the Twins grew as big as dollars, for a door opened, and right before their asto ished eyes stood a tiny fairy Dutch- man. He wore wooden shoes and loose a little cap. “Did you bring our tickets, Herr Haarlenspickler?” asked Johnny} Jump Up, leaping nimbly up to a green leaf beside him. “Goot efening, mein frents,” said the little Dutchman, fecling in one of his enormous pockets. “Yes, Ij brought three tickets mit me. All you do is to call der titmouse and give him dese tickets and he'll ride you aeross the ocean to Holland qu- vieker dan a snail can yawn.” “Oh, are we going to Holland?” cried Nick, “Dot same,” nodded the Dutchman, and even then Johnny Jump Up w: blowing his cheeks up like apples, to whistle.

FABLES ON HEALTS FOOD VALUE OF FISH Friday! Fish day! How many families have learned to observe it for other than re- ligious purposes? Fé ‘And not necessarily on Friday. The Jones family frequently served fish on Twesdays or Saturdays, What is the food value of fish? The skin alone—which is all too frequently discarded—is rich in iton and calcium, and should be eaton. Fish is a good substitute for meat, though not so stimulating. In the cases of many people it is well that ‘mackerel and the oily fis it is not so stimulating. It is high in protein content, though meat von- tains more iron. As a general thing it is gested, though bluefish, varieties are more difficult to digest. Served with a green vegetable; some starch dish, such as. rice or macaroni, an ideal combination can be had,.for here. will be combined the vegetable irons and minerals, the protein of the fish and the necessary starches. a WILL M. CRESSY at the Republican Convention BY WILL M. CRESSY Somehow there does not seem to ‘be that wild, unrestrained enthusi- asm at this convention that I ex- pected. All these investigation things seem to have dampened our ordor. It is mighty hard to be an enthusiastic politician when there fare two detectives to every politi- cian. I noticed it in Washington.

Indeed, I think I would have Itt a few tears drop from my suffused eyes if I hadn't prom- ised myself that I would never shed a tear for anyone or anybody again. It’s rated a sad time of life for a woman when she gets to — that point in her career where she feels that no one is worth ‘a tear, not even herself. I think you were right, Bee, when you said to Dick Summers that you were not going to let him put you in a position where he could hurt you again as much. as he had al- ready done. Tho arrogance of that young man rather appeals to me however. The idea of his telling you —of confessing 40 you—that you are not thé@*wortan ‘who‘ecan give him any thrills, and by this implying that probably in his future life in those who like Paula Perier, w! ble to set his nerves in an emotionaf'tingle. + He evidently expects you, because you love him,.to take.him back into your soft, tender arms, when he has been hurt, or sated, and bind up bruised -heart and make it all well again. Then he can go out upon @ new foray among the thrillers, But in this, Bee, I don't know ‘that he. is any different from any other man. Mr, John Alden Prescott has been left alone by his charming wife for a couple of weeks. Now John Al- den thinks that as a husband he is a man above reproach, and yet I know that if it were any other woman than I who were here in the office with him day after day John Alden would be riding for a fall, and he would experience that fall very soon, Honestly, Bee, if it were not for Leslie, I think I would show him that he is weakest when he thinks he is strongest. He was telling me yesterday of a friend: of his, a Mr. Sydney Carton. Did you ever meet. him? From what John Alden says this chap must be a real paragon, and also from.what he says I sensed that Sydney is probably very much in love with John Alden’s wife. John Alden, in his ignorance and, arrogance, has not the slightest inkling of the matter! Do not mistake mie; dear. “1 haven't the slightest idea that Les- He is aware of the deep devption with which her husband's friend's heart, js. filled. In, fact, one of the reasons Why I think’ this Carton chap is in loye with Leslie is because he has made some excuse to keep away from her; he has only visited them once since her’ marriage. <But, ‘oh, you Would laugh, my dear, if you could realize. ‘what an eye he is keeping on, friend husband, insist- ing that he shall do his duty as a husband and a gentleman! This, Sydney Carton is coming ‘over here: next .week when Leslie returns from New York where she is visiting with her family, who have just re- turned from Europe, you know. I think I'll break over my resolu- ‘tion and, visit Leslie during that time. It will be an amusing ex- perience to sce husband and friend together and unconscious wife sit- ting between.
