It would be little short of a calamity if farmers spurred by present conditions in the grain market were to abandon corn and dairy operations and return blindly to strictly a one crop basis. Farmers, bankers and in fact businessmen in all walks; of life have been active the last few years in promoting diversified farming and urging balanced crops. Not with any intention of dictating to the farmer how he should con- duct his business, but with an earnest, honest effort to bet-| that shows there is no essential ter conditions. Hundreds of farmers in this section of the state are grateful for the advice offered and in many cases for the financial assistance given. Demagogic attacks upon businessmen whose interests are identical with those of the farmers do not build up a country. There must be active cooperation between the two classes of people interested vitally in building up the state. It is reasonably sure that the farmers of the Missouri Slope section will never return to the old slip-shod methods and this year should convince them beyond a reasonable Cont! thet with frach gains in canital, all new investment should be toward a program of diversified farming.

HORRIBLE The “War of 1930” is predicted in frightful details by the German general, Freiherr von Schoenich, in his new book. Curiously enough, he expects war between England and Japan; then Russia attacking Poland, and Germany at the throat of Belgium and France with death ray machines kVing 500,000 people in 48 hours. One incident will be 100,000 civilians dead in Berlin from 60 French airplane bombs. We'd like to know a bit more about this general — and how close he is to the War Office. Is he a modern Jules Verne? Or has he been hearing Real Stuff? | HIDDEN Only one American family in every four has an income of $1000 or more a year—if you believe the national income tax figures. The latest of these statistics that are completely com- piled cover 1922 and show that 6,385,405 admitted incomes of $1000 or more during the year. It’s estimated the aver- ag? family has four and a half member's—that is, nine mem- bers to every two families. If the tax collector could get to the “hidden irfcomes,” Uncle Sam could retire a big chunk of the national debt. SLEEP . Why are so many modern children nervous, neurotic or erotic? The answer, says Dr. Caroline Hedger, is that “the chid of this age doesn’t get enough normal sleep.” Radio, jazz music, movies and other diversions keep them up late. They upset their endocrine glandular balance by eating too much candy—sugar unstabilizing the pancreas. And. too, abnormal or subnormal children are the natural product to be expected from the unnatural life of parents and a jazz environment in youth. BUNK = A Chicago butcher tells how he sold shoulder steaks like hot-cakes by advertising them as “excellent coronation steaks.” The fancy name caught the public. . We are a great people for labels and names. What used to be a crock factory is now a “pottery studio.” The mili- tary draft masquerades under the more gentle name, “selec- tive service.” What’s ina name?

Editorial Review Comments reproduced column may or may not express the opiniur of The Tribune. They are presented here in order that our readers may have bi of important issues ben: sed in the in this discus: jay. MR. COOLID (Minneapolis Journal) i President Coolidge could prob-| ably spend a fortnight of cam-| paigning in no more effective way than simply by doing what he 1s; doing now — revisiting his small- town home. It is all very well for candidates to discuss issues and} outline policies, but after all the majority of the votes are cast, not for the principles, but for the man. On a speech-making tour, and still more against the unnatural back- ground of the White House, a can- didate is hedged about with for- | malities; everything combines to lay emphasis on the difference be- tween him and his fellows, where- as what the people really want is to feel that he ig in truth one of themselves. Wherefore the news {tems, and still more the pictures, from the little town of Plymouth, Vermont, cre campaign documents of extra- ordinary potency. The President visits “the maple trees where he had often drawn pails of sap”; from those same maples he is day drawing ballots. ‘They estab- lish a bond of fellowship between him and thousands of men and women who, even if they have never handled a sap bucket, know that it is much more in their line than directing the affairs of al great nation. “One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.” When does the British public grow dithyrambic over its monarch? Not when he fappears in state at some loity ceremonial, with all the trappings of ancient royalty, but when he does some quite ordinary thing the press of AT HOME ditferences between a king and a coster monger.

Weeny said to Toby, the dog, and Prince, the pony, that if business kept up they would have enough money to take two more vacations. The Twins were selling tickets and all the wood folk and meadow. folk for miles around crowded to get in. “I'm not sure about this circus business,” said Daddy Cracknuts, as he passed 10 cents for two tickets to Nick, for himself and his wife. “Are you sure you have no foxes or tigers or anything that might take a notion to make a meal of us.” “Honestly we haven't, Daddy,” said Nick. “There’s nobody in our cir- cus but a nice kind elephant and a dog and a pony.” “Then I'll go and tell the other people what you said,” reifiarked Daddy. “Have you got any side- shows?” “Yes, we've got a fine side-show,” said Nick. “That’s two cents extra. You go into that before the circus begins.” Daddy went out, but soon he came back. “They are all coming,” he cried. “All the Bunnies and Coons | and Cottontails and Woodehucks and everybody. And they are all go- | ing to sce your side-show, too! | Gimme two tickets extra for ma and me.

Keep up the hard work and soon your mucles THURSvAY, AUGUST 28, 1994 WHY YOU GET TIRED By Albert Apple es! Fatigue is largely a state of mind. Physical exhaustion is decidedly a secondary reason. Dr. Evans, distinguished medical man, makes this claim in a speech to the British Association for the Advancement of Science. He has some ideas that will enable many people to get more work accomplished without “minding it.” : The physical or bodily phase of fatigue, says Dr. Evans, is caused by accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles. This chemical is what makes stiffness felt after the ex- jercise of untrained muscles. Use of trained muscles is not followed by stiffness, be- ‘cause the trained muscle has better circulation of the blood through it. This brings more oxygen to the muscles, and the lactic acid is removed by oxidation. That is to say,, the lactic acid combines with the oxygen and is carried away, the same as iron combines with the oxygen of air and pro: duces rust. ’ You’ve had the experience of doing work you’re not ac- customed to— such as rowing a boat or chopping wood on vacation. Next day your muscles are filled with lactic acid are not stiff and aching the next day. Your blood has gotten' in the habit of circulating through the muscles, formerly dormant or not used, and the lactic aeid is oxidized and elim- ldous tasks tire her less. \she's going to be very happy. leave in a few days for Faribault, | inated. or lack of interest.

It has been said that women like men with a past because they want men for that same reason I think I would like a widow for a wife.

Is it because she has always proved herself so ‘efficient, as well as such a good friend to Leslie—or were you afraid she would tell Leslie some of men’s frailties as she knew them? I know if I were a woman and had .been’ married to a man like Harry Ellington, I would have fallen for a man like Walter Burke imme- diately. He was never intrusive with his attentions when she was Elling- ton’s wife, you know, but I am sure he gave her a feeling that he was always there, and that thought takes many a woman, I am _ sure, over the bad places of, married life, even if she be the most loyal wife in the world.’ I wonder what she’s going to do with that lingerie shop? When I was over at your place, at her re- quest I went’ over to see it, and I Monotonous work usually is in a monotonous environ. So, if a physical task seems hard, all that’s needed to make it easy is to keep at it—“develop unused muscles.” Marvelous chemical machine, the human body. The main cause of fatigue is a state of mind, Dr. Evans claims. By “state of mind” he apparently means monotony Lack of interest gives us a tired feeling even before we start a disagreeable or uninviting task. and plunge into it, we find that the mental weariness van- Desire to finish —the urge to accomplish victory—spurs us on.

I, being a bachelor, never knew a woman could squander so much money on her underclothing —something which only she and her own sex usually see. I’ve come to the conclusion that the answer to that ancient ques- “Do women dress for woman or can be anbwered emphati- They dress for women.” First, every woman dresses for herself. A woman loves beautiful things, and to quote part of your letter, “ever since Eve appeared be- fore Adam in an ornate and orna- mental confection,” she has gloried in making herself not only attract- tive to some man, but she has in- sisted upon making herself as beau- tiful as she could for herself alone. I had intended to write you a scorching letter, telling you without mincing my words what an egregi- ous ass you have been, still are, and probably always , be where a woman is concerned; and here I go with a short, analytical diatribe on women. You have probably observ- ed before this that Leslie and. Les- lie’s reactions interest me muh more than you or your trouble. I’m going’ to close this letter by telling you that another thing you should immediately do is: to get that old maid out of your mother’s apartment. ‘If necessary, tell your mother that she must send her away or go back home and live with her.

New York, Aug. 28.—The first arc light in New York was installed on the Bowery. It was used to light Harry Miner’s Theater in 1879. Wires were strung over the tops of ‘the buildings from the generating machine to the light. There were no telegraph poles in those days. The story is recalled ‘by David E. Drake, 76, who recently retired as dean of a large electrical company with which he was associated 38 of the 50 years he spent in the electri- cal industry. “The boys: who were running a department ‘store at Zanesville, 0.” said Mr, Drake, “thought one day they would like to have it illuminated with are lights. Not ineide—just the windows. The day and the hour when the lights were to be turned on were announced ‘to the public. Farmers came from miles around. All Ohio seemed assembled outside the shop. They had never seen an elec- tric light before. The lights were turned.on and there was great ex- citement. It wasn’t long before people were asking themselves why they had never realized how dull gas light was.” * Though our present. electric lights are taken for granted today, children of the present generation may be the Mr, Drake's of the future detailing the sensation of seeing the Shenan- doah, the navy’s dirigible, the /fo1 runner of transatlantic well as transcontinental aerial transporta- tion, on its experimental trips.
