With the past son proving what can be done on North Dakota farms, with the state in position to further its own interests, every citizen will be called upon in a united campaign to advertise North Dakota to the world. One of the most important projects of this nature is the North Dakota Corn Show, which will be held in Bismarck November 12- The fi state-wide corn show, held here isst year, dazzled the eyes of many who had placed North Dakota out of the good corn belt, if not entirely out of the corn belt. As fine corn as is raised in any part of the United States was exhibited. There is every reason to believe that the corn show this year will far exceed the first, both in the number and quality of entries, and in the interest shown. The corn show has dual value, in promoting the inter- ests of corn growing and diversified farming in the state, on the one hand, and proving to the farmers living in the states of high-priced iand that North Dakota offers the best ity for a tenant to become a land owner. The ad- ing trom the first corn show penetrated into South Dakotz, Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois, and the advertising fom the second show will reach farther. Every citizen of Bismarck and Burleigh county should constitute himself a committee of one to issue invitations to attend the splendid exposition to be held in Bismarck. WINGS Like this, runs the evolutionary theory: A fish wanted, fo» instance, to get out on land and explore. Struggling, it developed fins into flippers like a seal’s. Gradually these became legs—tike a lizard’s. Trying to seize objects ulti- mately developed. fingers. Or, struggling to fly, fish developed fins into wings. Man yearned to fly—so much, he pictured the angels with i He didn’t wait for wings to grow. Made his own, —the airplane. No longer confined to the ground. man’ BRAINS Earthworms have brains—not in their heads, but in their abdomens. Nature Magazine gives this scientific fact. Sometimes it seems as if the human intellect is in the liver. Sluggish liver, sluggish thinking. The brain is the central station. and quality of intellect are not determined altogether by the brain. The liver and the thyroid and other endocrine glands are of importance beyond estimation. THYROID Cc in kinds of mentally backward children can, by be- ing fed extract of sheep thyroid gland scientifically, be made normal in intelligence. What they get from sheep thyroids is a mysterious sub- stance in the nature of iodine. Some endocrinologists even go as far as to suggest that a bottle of iodine contains about everything possible in the way of human thought. But don’t take iodine. It’s deadly poison. So is some thought. LAGGARD One in every 200 persons in Great Britain is mentally deficient, the minister of health over there claims. He is an optimist. More than a majority of people in every country are be- low par intellectually. Some cynics who handle the public even insist that only five out of every 100 people have any intelligence at all—that the other 95 are animated almost entirely by emotions. The success of some movies and fic- tion makes this theory plausible. SWEETS Men are eating more candy than women, according to leading diet experts. The usual explanation is that the sugar in candy is a substitute for pre-prohibition alcohol. One authority claims excess in candy is as injurious to the digestive system as overindulgence in alcohol. Also that the candy habit is as hard to break as the liquor habit. Other experts disagree. One advantage of having “experts” is that there’s nearly a) s one or more who’ll back you, no matter what you think. EXTRAORDINARY The axolotl, described as a fish with four legs, the legs equipped with fingers, excites Boston. It was sent from Montana to the Hub’s natural history museum. A little imagination suggests that the queer creature is a link dem- onstrating the workings of evolution. That is presumably correct—even though the axolotl is a salamander or refined lizard, instead of a fish. MOTORIST Compulsory auto liability insurance now is in effect in neariy all of Switzerland. As a rule, the auto owner must carry at least $20,000 worth. The laws favor the pedestrian who: gets hit. The burden of proof is on the driver. And the car owner has to pay a tenth of the big damages out of his own pocket, and all of the damages up to $25. They claim it’s safe now to cross Swiss roads without running. WHITHER? What has become of that German who had “discovered how to manufacture gold out of the baser metals?” Truly, we live in an age of marvels.

ADVENTURE OF , THE TWINS | BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON | | | When the King of Yum Yum Land | ordered the magic fork und the j magic teapot to bring him a meal and set it before him in his hunting- lodge, Nancy and Nick and Daddy Ganaer looked with all their eyes. It wasn't more than fifteen sec- onds until clatter, clatter, clatter! back came the fork and teapot with a meal fit to set before a king, as indeed it soon was. While the peddler in the palace was eating cold mutton and salty potatoes and tough beans and hor- rible pie, the king in the forest was eating nightingales’ tongues and fried goldfish and creamed violets and ice cream of forty colors. But that was only about one-hundredth | of it. If I should tell you all he ate,| you would never get to bed tonight. Along the road came the cook, hur- | rying as fast as he could move. “If I can only get the magic fork,” | he kept saying anxiously, “I shall be able to keep my head on my shoulders. I hope that I can sneak : into the hunting-lodge by the back ; way and get hold of it when the king isn’t looking. If I don’t get it the peddler will off with my head at sunrise. A pretty mess I made out of things when I made this old ped- | dler King of Yum Yum Land. Small thanks I got for my trouble.” | At the same time the peddler (as | cross as a bear about the bad meal | he had eaten) was coming down another road toward the hunting- lodge in the forest. | ‘And he was saying to himself, “If I can only get the magie fork back that I gave the king, I’ll be fixed for the rest of my life. That cook at the palace is the worst ever! glad I ordered his head off. I had better meals when I was ped- dling frying-pans and milk-pails. Yes, I'll have to sneak in by the back door and get the fork and teapot when the king isn’t looking.” Well, the cook came up tippy-toe through the bushes and peeped in one window, and the peddler came up tippy-toe and peeped in through another window, and there sat the king eating his goldfish and violets. The cook didn’t know it, but he was standing right on the magic dust-pan where the Twins and Daddy Gander had hidden it when they arrived in Yum Yum Land. —_ in the hands of employers than | their right to secure an injunction | against striking empl taken in connection with the right of the | : suits growing out of the shopmen's | | ‘cook did, fork, pan and all stra}ght I'm j Why, | |OUT OUR WAY WHY YOU MUST TO THEM.

The desk intact is now reposing in your morning room, at least it was there when I left for this hotel, I may as well tell you now that as far as I am concerned you will have to get along without knowing whether it’ has a secret drawer or not. I shall never again pay any more attention to it. I have lost all interest. You know by this time that Miss Anderson has left me. The new nurse that my doctor sent me I do not like nearly as well. This wo- man is not a lady. She contradicts me continually and pays no atten- tion to me when I talk to her for any length of time. She will get up and leave the room right in the midst of one of my sentences. Miss Anderson called on me yes- terday and much to my surprise told me that she would not have left if Priscilla had not always been snoop- ing around and making trouble. I am very sorry to tell you that Miss Anderson is more than half right, and I am impatiently waiting until you return and dismiss this nurse so that Miss Anderson can come back. Also when you do return I hope you will make Mrs, Burke under- stand that she owes me an apology. Sincerely your mother, MARY ALDEN PRESCOTT. (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.)
