Pain, to most of them, he said, was physical punishment; they were immune from the mental anguish which imprisonment brings to many intellectual people. Capital punishment is advanced as an end feared by all criminals, yet the swing in the nation is away from capital punishment. The great strides made in the nation in or- ganized charity, in aiding the unfortunate, relieving pain and distress has perhaps had its effect upon the criminal law enforcement of the nation. Perhaps a new distinction between justice and mercy is necessary. if Mr. Bryan continues to bring the question before the naticn he will render a service. He is certain to awake publi« discussion. 1 A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION The Agricultural Credit Corporation, with funds pro- vided by private capital, rendered great aid in the North- west last summer to banks, to individual farmers by mak- ing loans for purchase of livestock, and in raising the morale of the entire Northwest by proving the confidence of far- seeing financial leaders in this great section of the coun- try. It is now proposed that the Corporation shall con- tinue its activities, although the emergency situation which it was designed to meet has passed. The Agricultural Credit Corporation promoted diversified farming; it now is pro- posed to “follow up” the effort made last summer and fall. There will no doubt be some recession in the progress of diversified farming in North Dakota, because it is sweet to harvest a grain crop that produces enormous profit and the memory of hard times passes quickly in the flush of pros- perity. But many farmers and business men know that it was mixed farming which saved the Northwest and made possible the harvesting of this years big crop. Bitter ex- perience has taught thousands the gamble of exclusive grain farming and the steady profit in mixed farming. Every agency that can do so should lend constructive effort to the movement to promote a continued diversifica- | tion of products of North Dakota farms, making them twelve-months-a-year factories. CROSSINGS The safety campaign appears to be reducing fatal acci- dents at railroad grade crossings. Deaths are fewer than a year ago, and the safety campaigners claim credit. Less pleasing is the report that injuries resulting from crossing smashes show a slight increase in latest reports. However, the number of autos in use has increased by a fifth since a year ago. So crossing crashes for every 1000 cars average materially fewer. Paste it on your windshield: killed crossing railroad tracks in 1924. HELIUM More than 8500 Americans ; from the life.

Barraud in- herited from his father and unele a! love of animals and exceptional skill at depicting them. In the Strand Magazine of Au- gust, 1916, he tells the story of “His Master's Voice.” One day he notic- ed his little dog, Nippeg, sitting in an attitude of somewhat puzzled interest in front of the horn of a talking machine. The picture ap- pealed to him, and he painted it. Dissatisfied with the ugly black horn of the machine he had painted, Bar- raud, at the suggestion of a friend, asked a gramophone company to lend him a brass horn which would add color to his picture. Company officials, realizing the value of such a painting, bought the completed picture. Technically, the picture was well done, for Francis Barraud knew dogs and how to picture them. Some years ago the company that purchased his painting arded Bar- raud a pension in recognition of its appreciation.

The black depths of the chimney, I mean. “Quick!” cried Johnny jumping off after him. “Come on, children! There is no time to be lost. We'll have to catch him.” | “Why?” asked Nick, wondering! what all the fuss was about, “Why! don’t you let him go, Johnny? He can't stop the notes now, Santa Claus has them by this time.” i “Oh, ho! So he has,” declared |Johnny Sweep. “And that’s all the, | more reason why we should stop this rascall of a goblin. Do you know} ‘what place this is?” ¢ The Twins looked around, but all they could see was a wide flat roof} and the great chimney. “It doesn’t look like a house top,”! Sweep, Another big helium gas well is flowing in Texas. This, as you know, is the gas ideal for balloon-type airships be- ; cause it doesn’t burn or explode. Gas men used to curse when their drills struck helium. They thought it useless. But nothing is useless. Helium, up to 1917, cost as much as $2500 a cubic foot. We have it underground in six states, and the cost soon will be about 3 cents a cubic foot. No other country has a known deposit of helium worth developing. Quite logical for Zeppelin-mak- ing headquarters to move to America. DEAD LETTERS Nearly 22 million letters go to the dead letter office year, postal heads announce.

BON YOUR MIND MUS BE WANDERIN, DETOURS FOR By Albert A By Williams BAD rare $¥ ro pple ** The asphalt of pavements travels back and forth, high- j Way engineers discover. If you put a tack in the asphalt surface and watch it, you'll find it moves as much as six or ‘eight inches in a year. The theory is that motor traffic shoves the asphalt for- ward, just as a rug tends to move under a child’s foot when he slides over it. Naturally, the flow of asphalt is mostly in warm weather when the pavement Is softened by the sun’s heat. Take an east-west street. Traffic is heavier or faster, as a total, in one direction than the other. Suppose this traffic exerts its greatest shove westward. The asphalt moves in that direction. Heavy trucks, eastbound, reverse the flow. This is the only plausible theory the engineers so far have | | figured out. ; LAUS! my, i | It may seem at first glance that the engineers are wast- ing time and money by such observations. Not so. It is {part of a widespread endeavor to learn the causes that make {pavements go to pieces prematurely and in spots. Why does a pavement wear out, sink or break up in scat- tered places instead of ‘uniformly? The engineers are trying to find out. They’ll succeed. Then we’ll build better pave- ments. ci saais The good roads movement has been handicapped by a national desire for mileage rather than endurance.

Ac- cordingly, the engineers are devoting their attention to de- vising pavements that will endure. That is the way to spend taxpayers’ money—endurance first, mileage second. and down Broadway I saw Emma Dunn in the play “Dawn” and can- not understand the popularity of either, albeit Miss Dunn is a wom- an’s actress and “Dawn” is a wom- an’s play. ..Saw Adele Rowland, the lovely wife of Conway Tearle.
