ALFSON Fifteen years of service in Bismarck is to be broken soon by the departure of Rev. Alfson, pastor of the First Luth- eran church. He came here from the east to organize a church and until a congregation could be gathered together | and a church organization perfected services were held in the County Court House. In the years of service here to an ever enlarging circle of communicants, he built a modern church structure and leaves a most successful organization behind him. Rev. Alfson took an interest in the civic affairs of the city. Most of his children were reared here. His boys achieved honor in the school room and distinction upon the athletic field. His daughter is in public life as the secretary of Senator Frazier and took a prominent part in the LaFol- lette campaign in this state. She was a candidate also for secretary of state. ‘ Thus the family was associated closely with the public affairs of the state, but Rev. Alfson held aloof from political matters serving his church closely and winning many to him by a kind administration of his daily duties as head of the First church. He is rounding out nearly fifty years of active church service and many join in wishing him and his family success in their new field. CROSSINGS Motoring weather is here. So is the season for grade crossing accidents. The average person is awed by such disasters as the} TIiinois storm, yet gives but scant attention to grade cross- “ing dangers. Yet almost three times as many persons were killed in grade crossing accidents in 1924 as were killed by the tor- nado. A total of 2149 lost their lives. We can do nothing to prevent storms. to prevent grade crossing accidents is all too little, largely because, being scattered, it is difficult to center the public mind on them. TROUBLE There is always surcease for trouble in examining the other fellows. Let us, who are constantly bothered about traffic regula- tions, give a thought to Rome. For years traffic throughout Italy has kept to the right except in Rome, where it has kept to the left. Then Rome ordered traffic to the right. . 3 Numerous accidents and deaths have occurred and more will. Imagine the trouble if Bismarck suddenly ordered all traffic to the left! NEIGHBORS Neighborliness passes with the growth of large cities. “Why should I become a friend of the person next door? Perhaps she is not of my class,” is the query. A narrow point of view. If your neighbor has a better code of morals and a better philosophy than you, you will be gainer through association. If your neighbor gets less frorn life than you, your associa- tion may be an investment in happiness that comes from in- spiring others. OPPORTUNITY Would you be a benefactor to America? Invent a game that calls for real exercise, combines a large measure of skill and a portion of chance, and revives latent desire for combat. Be sure it is a game which will attract thousands to play it, but few to watch it. Then “sell” it (you find the way) to the public. i: Baseball is good sport, but it is the bleacherites that need exercise, not the already fit athlet RECOGNITION Charles Saunders, who made possible Marquis wheat, is pensioned at $5000 a year by the Canadian government. This is unusual. Few discoverers and inventors get more than that out of years of work. Yet it is cheap for the Ca- . nadians, The government can easily afford the $5000 a year from the increased taxes paid by the men who cashed in on Saunders’ labors. MOTHERS DAY A dispute still goes on as to who originated the idea of mothers day. Relatively unimportant. Love for mothers should exist every day. That urge existed eons before mothers day was thought of. Baseball may be a foolish pastime; but the moment the season starts, millions of men stop worrying about their health, their wives’ shortcomings and the sins of the govern- ment. We see by the archeology bulletins that they’ve dug up 2 royal stele in Ur of the Chaldees, and we don’t doubt that if they keep on, they can dig up some ancient royal steals, too. ‘ . “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches,” but a lot of people fool themselves into thinking that if they get the riches the name will take care of itself. The average motorist is getting so humble that he’d be satisfied if pedestrians would only let him get across when the sign says “Go,” ' " Bast and West, contrary to Kipling, do meet, as the And what we do}! i 1 Kditerial Review ments reproduced in this ‘ 1 May not express the opinion of The Tribune.

In the lower t Side the men of the tribes are making last-minute swaps of autos, in which they are 4s adept as they were in the old days when they thrived largely through shrewd trading of horses. The wpmen are buying new and gaudy shawls and dresses with which to bedazzle pros- pective patrons of their fortune- telling booths on tour. Several thousand gypsies winter here, centering along Aven A, Grand street and Broome street. While here the women make tidy sums by fortune telling and sooth- saying, their patrons often coming from aristocratic Fifth and Park avenues. The men do little work except in the way of putting a broxen-down auto in condition to trade it for a car of greater value. Most of these nomads are from the Balkan states. Some are from Rumania, Poland and Russia. The various groups do not fraternize, al- though they have so much in com- mon. Although the gypsies live in the city’s most congested district they will not inhabit tenements. They usually rent empty storerooms on. the street level, hang bright cloth about the walls and over the win- dows. Occasionally they occupy cellar. It has often been said that no man looks like Will Rogers, but Will Scheffler, of Brooklyn, is double for him. Scheffler has a lot of fun by occasionally standing in front of the theater about the time the Follies show closes. Those who have just seen the show believe he is Rogers and shake hands with him and con- gratulate him on the performance he has just given. You may appreciate the glamour of Broadway that attracts girls from all over the country when you con- sider the parallel romances of Fan- nie Brice and Lenore Ulric, Miss Ulric has just terminated her connection with David Belasco. ‘Do appear under his banner is the am- bition of almost every player of the stage.

There are travelers in Europe who refuse to go any- where unless they can fly. It was the same! with automobiles. America started them. Then France outstripped us. Then we got in in eurnest, and now we have nine- tenths of the automobiles in the world, the best and the cheapest. We started flying. Then Europe left us far behind. Now, belatedly, we begin again. If we follow prece- dent, a few years will fill our skies with 90 per cent of the flying ve- hicles of the world. The Shanghai municipal court has decided that it is the business of the autoist to look out for himself that he gets full measure at the gae- filling stations. This was a “for- eign” court, of course, but it pro- ceeded in true Chinese fashion. That is the reason Chinese busi- ness is honest. Since there are no courts or laws that anybody will trust to protect him, a man who needs laws to make him honest can not do business. The dishonesty of courts and government makes busi- ness honest.

We can’t stand cold weather and we have to stay in Africa, a hot country, until May, By that time it is warm and nice in England and the blos- soms are out and everything, so then we fly home over the blue Mediter- ranean Sea, and finally we reach England. “That is the place we: like best of all and so it is the place we choose to bring up our families.” “Naturally, Mrs. Cuckoo,” nodded Doctor Bill, “naturally!
