THE STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) WHEN A PRESIDENT TRAVE President Coolidge doubtless is enjoying the editorials | of the nation cautioning more discretion when he travel: His Yankee humor probably will appreciate some of the labored efforts of those trying to decide how he should travel. The President has a unique way of flouting some of the ceremony that supposed to hedge in a chief executive of the United States. But is Coolidge so far out of historical line when he ks his traveling bag, swings on a Pullman and takes “pot | luck” with the other travelers? Evidently the President and his wife got considerable fun out of rubbing elbows with the masses in the aisles of the Pullman and the crowded accommodations of the standard diner. In addition to it all, President Coolidge received yards of publicity. which focused the mind on the value of economy. No one need fear that President Coolidge will make a practice of this mode of traveling. He knows how to meas- Daily by mail, outs ure up to the dignity and importance of his office.

The lives of our presidents are full of incidents in their daily routine com- pared to which President Coolidge’s trip to Chicago takes on regal elegance. Andrew Jackson disliked the pomp ot office. Lincoln refused to submit to all the conventions and insited on doing things in his own way. Coolidge knows the American mind probably as well as} anyone who has been in the White House. While there is much of the statesman about him, he can give some of the Tammany politiclans a few lessons in practical politics. His lesson in practical economy may have shocked the ef- fete East, but. the boys in Chicago who hailed him in their cow punching clothes and with “hook’em cow” yells, were not at all chagrined because he failed to step from a private car to the rattle of muskets and empty show of military fustian. ‘SHOP EARLY Put tue Christmas spirit into your shopping which really mcans shop early and thereby lighten the burden of tired clerks and ease the tension of eleventh hour yuletide. Not only is it the right and kind thing to do, but there are other, obvious advantages: Opportunity for better service; more time for inspection and a better choice; enjoyable buying and of course more; benefits could be mentioned. By hasty, slovenly buying the joy of giving has not the zest that well planned Christmas shopping afford By all means “Shop Early” and don’t forget to “mail your bundles early” for the postoffice too has its troubles and extra help to care for the additional load is not available. The regular staff has to do the work if service is to be given. MILLIONAIRE Did you ever hear of William H. Moore? He died over a year ago. It’s revealed in a New York court that he left an estate of more than 28 million dollars. And yet the pub- lic for the most part was ignorant of his existence. Big business leaders, bankers and attorneys knew him. He was a top-notch corporation lawyer. i Getting to be quite a common event, to read of the pass- | ing of a comparatively obscure man worth millions. The / multimillionaire is becoming such a common institution that ! he pitracts little attention. Wealth is being gradually cor- nered. , THEN It’s just 25 years since newspapers devoted considerable | space to the first successful collection of mail by auto in the United States.

They ed here in order that have both sides THAT NEW PARK (Rilldcer, North ota, Herald) The Herald has been skeptical of the success of the so-called Roose- velt Park project ever since it be came known just how much terri- tory was included therein. Our doubts have been strengthened since the inspection of Major Goldman of the U. S, Biotogical Survey who went through here last week in com- pany with E. E. Fredcen of Ryder. Major Goldman said there were so many settlers and so much good farm land from Marmarth to Medora and then to almost Watford City that the government might not feel cost necessary to buy out all these Nobody has unlimited energy to waste on impractical, illogical or impossible things, even though it te a little passing publicity The government park commission will not waste time on any project which rambles over a hundred miles of territory and which would entail a prohibitive expense in the pur- chase of farm and ranch lands and homes. This sounds like a knock. It may be. But it seems more sensible to look the project squarely in the face to start with, than to start some thing which we know is impractical if not impossible. Fi As far as the people of this see- tion are concerned, they would ra- ther see more farms and more farm- ers than a park which would lessen the number of farms and be of questionable benefit fo anyone. There is a park project which now before Congres it s been looked upon favorabl Major Gold- man is highly pleased with it; it cost the government compar: is created in this section, be- se—it deserves to be. ny THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE | The Busy Man’s Newspaper RONG CHEAP ABOUT AN Jon Sims That's the Killdeer Mountain Nat- . ional Park project of Daudtless a Dunn. f It is twelve miles from any town-| Christmas is dashing madly to- No matter how much it needs \ward us at the rate of 60 seconds a support, no one in the world canl i inate, make it meander around among a i alf dozen slope towns in order to] 7).

Some people would rather eat than hear riddles! But Nancy and Nick took the rid- dles off by themselves and read them one at a time. Of course some of the words were pretty hard but when they had their magie shoes on things seemed much casier—reading, too! book This was the next riddle they read: “Pm round as an orange, | | But not guod to eat, Iam not a bit soft, And I'm not at all Iam not a fine fruit, Or a bullet or ball, Or 1 fat yellow pumpkin That comes in the fall. et, | | i either am I a knob On a pole or a door, Tam not on the ground, I don't roll on the floor, Though I'm not on the ground, {t’s as true as can be, That though I'm not on it, The ground is on me. | | | !

For \instance. it’s frequently claimed that Americans are “sped ‘bugs,” living at high nervous tension, rushing and hustling at : break-neck pace. We've been told this. Most of us believe it. Quite nat- iurally. It gratifies our vanity to fancy ourselves important ‘actors in an environment that demands hurry. | But suppose you are a city man in a real rush. Trying to ‘get to the bank, say, before it closes. You have to dodge and ‘shove through crowds that seem half-asleep and ij. process lof petrifaction. The crowd moves slowly.— lazy, ambling. ipoky. That’s really the case. It doesn’t just seem that way j because you’re in a hurry. Speed bugs? Who laughed? | | walk or in store, office, factory. i Americas. | This man acquires an auto. As soon as he gé¢ts‘at the j Wheel, he feels the urge of the speed craze. Warts to gel ito his destination quickly. \ H Usually it’s a great rush without cause. Many a business executive risks arrest by breaking speed laws on his way to the office. Arrived there, he calmly reads ‘a paper or “goes into conference,” where he often ¢xchanges ' jokes and experiences and otherwise kills time. ! Or he’s driving into the country to buy fresh batter anc eggs. To watch his auto, you'd think he was driving an ‘ambulance. At the heart of city traffic problems is this psycholog- lical truth: We have two distinct elements to deal with. \First is the autoist, who wants speed. Second is the! pedes- itrian, chronically slow-moving. : j When these two factions cross each other's paths, we ‘have the same problem as when a cow Icisurely ciosses the | railroad track used by fast trains. ! Traffi low down t He’s the genuine typical a | ic cops try to slow he motorists and.speed up \the pedestrians. Instincpively they attempt to bring the two ‘streams of traffic to about the same average speed. It can’t be done. ‘ + A typical American on wheels is a speeder at heart. A 'typical American walking wants to take his timd Eventually the big cities probably will have streets with two levels. Pedestrians will have the regular streets. Autos will travel along elevated roadways or through subways. iSome such definite separation of traffic will become. neces- ‘sary, at least at street intersections, if the number of autos continues increasing.
