Sisson of Reed College, in Portland, Ore., has gathered some interesting statistics upon juvenile de- linquency. He finds that the following conditions obtain in the home from which 60 to 80 per cent of delinquent juveniles come: “Both parents dead, or one parent dead or parents di- vorced or separated, or one or both parents vicious or crim- inal or seriously defective.” It all gets back to the defective home. There is an old proverb that ‘one good mother is worth a hunderd school teachers.” The figure might be carried further in evaluat- ing the potency of a good home by restating the proverb that parental control of the right kind can cure more social ills than all the institutions of a reformatory nature. Too often the schools are blamed for juvenile delin- quency. The burden of its correction is too often shifted to the schools where it most assuredly does not belong. The trouble starts in the defective home. After all the fight to decrease juvenile delinquency is a battle for better homes, presided over by better fathers and better mothers. PROSPERITY APPROACHES The recent rains have had such an admirable effect on the crops of the state that the outlook gladdens the heart. The prospects are that the pocketbooks of North Dakota farmers will be heavier this fall than they have been for the last two or three years. A prospect such as this is enough to encourage any one. Prosperity for the farmer means a consequent enrichment of the tradesmen in the towns brought about by a turnover of the stocks. Prosperity for the storekeepers results in an equal prosperity for the manufacturer. All of which attests the well-estblished fact that the farmer is the backbone of the nation. And with good times in view for the farmer it is not an exaggeration to say that a reversal to good times is the prospect of the nation. CIVILIZATION _ If there is one thing we Americans pride ourselves on, it is that we have reached a higher state of civilization than any nation before us ever attained. Mechanically, we are the marvels of the age. We soar over mountains, talk across the continent without wires, take moving pictures beneath the sea, build machines that can do everything but think—yet isn’t there still a little room for growth? _Aren’t we a bit one sided? Don’t we worship the ma- chine a little bit too much? Wouldn’t it help, just a little, if we worked a while on the theory that what happens to our minds is almost as important as what happens to our bodies? TRUTH Across the front of New York’s public library there is engraved a statement that might well be emblazoned in every city for all who pass to read. It says: i “But over all these things, truth beareth away the vic- ory. Remember it. Sometimes it seems as if “these things” were victorious—money, for example; intolerance, supersti- tion, demagoguery. No. Truth, forget it or bury it as we will, will emerge. The whole French revolution, Carlyle says, was fought to demonstrate the proposition that a lie cannot endure. THE LAW 4 Heads of bar associations, and other prominent legal lights, are much given to addresses lamenting the growing unwillingness of the citizenry to submit all grievances and arguments to the “due process of law.” Here is something for these gentlemen to ponder on: it’s the chief reason for this unwillingness a dim feeling on the part of the common man that courts are not so much places for getting exact justice as they are arenas for clever lawyers to stage brilliant duels, in which the plain rights and wrongs of the case are often lost sight of ? DARWIN A fundamentalist speaker, the other day, spent half an, hour trying to show that Darwin’s theory was disproved by modern science and that, hence, anti-evolution laws such as Tennessee’s are justified. Stuff! The theory of evolution would stand as securely as ever if everything Darwin wrote were discarded. : There is a lot of loose talking on the subject. The “Dar- winian theory,” so-called, is merely his attempt to explain evolution, Many scientists have written books to confute Darwin without doubting evolution itself in the least. 3 SOCIOLOGY © Somebody once asked a professor of sociology what 2 sociologist really is. - “A_ sociologist,” he replied, “is a man who can’t gaze down Fifth avenue without remembering that Third avenue ig only’two blocks away.” eh Third avenue, you know, is where the tenements are. 2, It’s a good thing to remember things like that. Perhaps lll help us to be tolerant once in a while. ; Watch carefully th pa dai hi ** Watch carefully the outcome the anti-evolution law “test at Dayton, Tenn.

Kent in the Baltimore Sun) With extraordinary few excep- tions, the great cities of the United States are strikingly alike. There are differences, of course, but in most ways they are astoun«ingly standardized. What you find in one you find in the others, if you look. Life is essentially alike in them all. Society and ‘business are conducted along the same lines. Vice and virtue are found in about equal proportions. Men and women play and work to the same ends. The smaller cities merely imitate the big ones, go through the metro politan movements on a smaller scale. It is really only the little towns that have character and in divitaality. There are thousands of these in which live from 300 to 3,000 ‘people, and which differ as much as men differ. They are not big enough to have adapted stand- ards, to have acquired modern methods or to have lost their nat- uralness. It is true lots of them are unbeautiful, drab, droopy little places, -pathetically down at the heel and passe?’ by. ‘Tuere are others which stand self -respect- ingly upright and are amazingly pretty, with smiling faces a high average of happiness and a more lovely life than can be found in any big city. ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON THE INVISIBLE PIXIES “Did you ever hear the story of the Invisible Pixies?” asked Mi O° Mi, the Story Teller Man. “No we didn’t,” cried the Twins excitedly. “Will you tell it to us?” “Let me see,” said Mi O° Mi thoughtfully. think I know how it goes. Oh, yes! 1 remember: “Once upon a time there were some pixies who were extra bad and extra mischievous and extra every- thing. “They lived in a large cave right outside a village, and the pranks they played kept the poor villagers in hot water most of the time. Not real hot water, but just—well, just hot water—trouble, you know.” “Then what?” asked Nick. “Oh, ho!” laughed Mi O° Mi, “here's someone who wants to hear THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE .

Another night the grocer lost all his molasses out of his mo- lasses barrel in ‘his cellar, another night someone stole the feathers right out of Granny Nip Nap’s pillow while she slept. And so on. “But the worst one of all was the butcher. The pixies loved bologna better than anything in the world and about every other night they walked off with a whole ring of it. And sausage! My goodness! The sausage they stole! “Well, there was a young man in the village named Toby, who decided to turn policeman and find out who was stealing all their things, He rather suspected the pixies in Pixie Cave as it was called, although no- body had ever actually seen them. And so late one night he crept out of the village until he came to the cave and hid inside. It was very dark as the only lights fireflies. And even these had their lamps turned down. “But after the while he could see very well, when his yes became ac- customed to the gloom. charming enough is sne to be her- self heroine of a delightful story. .

I wonder how it got there.” “Someone rushed past me down stairs as I stood in Zoe's door,” I said, and then I told him how I had gone into the nursery and then Zoe's room and found it empty. “My God! Do you suppose it was Zoe who was hurt? Did the person that passed you have her in his arms?” “I don't know,” I replied. “I was terribly frightened. I only know that a man brushed past me so ctose I could have touched him.” “Where is Syd? How can he sleep through all this?” asked Jack sud- denly, remembering that Syd was our hous Then he called him There was no answer. Not being able to arouse Syd seemed to worry Jack. He looked as though he did not know what to do next. With a sudden flare the came on. Evidently the chauffeur had quickly found the break.

Benson deferentially handed me an old Spanish shawl that I use on the piano and I twisted it about me. My orchid night dress was a sight to behold because I had wiped my bloody hand on it. As we went into the hall in the bright light which Benson had turn- ed on all over the house we saw through the drawing room door, that the French window on the far; side was flung wide.

Can they be harmon- ized?” Professor McCready contended that |the most hopelessly pessimistic of the world’s prophets were those who had most completely adopted and assim- ilated the dostrine of organiv evolu- tion. Such a scheme of cosmic des- pair, he said, was completely at vari- ance with that portrayed in the Christian's Bile. “The time has fully arrived for those who think for themselves and who do not entrust the. keeping of their opinions to any set of supposed that pixies use are glow worms and| writers, and they say they sail soon experts, to dismiss once for all the idea that man may possibly have arisen by a long drawn out process of development from preceding an mal ancestors,” said the professor. “I am confident that in this year, 1925, facts are avail- a sign of them could be seen.

If we have no invisible oil to rub ourselves with, we can't go out burglarizing at night any more, and then no more parties.’ “The next thing Toby noticed was a tiny man who had sprung suddenly into view.

DEAN. DARWINISM PUT IN SAME CLASS WITH DODO BIRD (By The Associated Press) London, June 4.—Assertion that Darwinism was as “dead as the dodo,” so far as its being regarded as a vera causa of the origin of species is con- cerned, was made recently by George, McCready, professor of geology at Union College, Nebraska, addressing, the Victoria Institute on “Revelation THURSDAY, JUNE. 4, 1925. AND NOW THE COMMON PEOPLE GIVE VOICE By Chester H. Rowell After all, the real significance of the revived anti-evolu- tion agitation is the emergence of democracy. The evolution controversy of the last century was a Teal . issue, between opposing opinions held by persons qualified ~ to hold them. When it ended in the unconditional victory of the evolutionists, we supposed ‘it was settled—as indeed it was, and still is, among the only sort of persons then con- cerned. That there was a vast unconvinced multitude hidden in the intellectual byways did not strike any one as important. * The only new thing is that this multitude is now vocal. Its opinions are the same as they always were, but now they count. It is ignorance militant, proud, class-conscious and de- termined. ‘That is one sort of democracy. 2 Henceforward, nothing can be taken as settled merely because it has been accepted by the intellectual elite.” The multitude must be convinced, or, later, it will be heard. A California court has decided that, in spite of having a licensing board of their own that, chiropractic and other , “drugiess” healers have the right to take examination be- fore the medical board, too, and if they pass it, to receive 2 a medical certificates. The decision was based on the wording of the statute, but it ig right in principle ,too. Anybody with the necessary education should have the right to take the medical examina- tion, and, if he can pass it, to prac- tice by any “school” or none. The human structure has its parts, organs and processes, which are sub- ject to definite derangements, upon which the experience of mankind and the researches of science have accumulated a certain body of in- formation. Whoever has this knowl- edge, and is trained to apply it, should have the right to undertake the professional charge of the ail- ing. Nobody else should. Therefore, there should be one ex- amination, covering this knowledge. Whoever can pass it should be li- censed to practice. Canada’s Beer Is Disappointing The “four percent” Canadian beer disappoints. It is weaker than the American “two seventy-five,” which some states tried to declare non- intoxicating. The difference is in counting the proportions by volume, or by weight. Neuralgia of the face may be at- tributed to many different causes, Some of these are abscessed teeth, | non-erupted teeth, eye strain, dis-| eased conditions of the nose or adja- cent cavities. It is aggravated by constipation and other causes which impair the general health and in- crease nervous irritability. It is accompanied by much pain; | tearing, boring pains on one side of | the face, nausea, twitching of the muscles of the face, and shooting pains, which radiate from different points, as the front of the nose, the FABLES ON HEALTH NEURALGIA? GET A DOCTOR Alcohol is much lighter than water. So, if you mix a pint of alcohol with a pint of water, you have a 50-50 mixture by volume, but much less than half the weight is alcohol. On the other hand, if you mix a pound of alcohol with a pound of water, you have a 50-50 mixture by weight, but much more than half + the bulk is alcohol. The Canadians figure by volume; we by weight. So the Cana “four-four” beer is two and a half per cent by Ameri- can measure. Old soaks describe it as a tantalizing dtink. You chase tHe drunk all day, and never quite arrive. Less experienced drunks might catch it but they would have to drink lot—nearly twice as much as of “real” beer. The new beverage might not be very injurious, to one who drank it right. That is not the way our ex- cursionists go across the border to drink it. eye, forehead, ear and from behind the ear. Hot poultices or hot cloths applied to the face afford some relief. A more definite relief, however, is ob- tained by the injection of alcohol in- to the nerve trunk or its vicinity. This calls for the services of a phy- sician: Frequently the disease returns, af- ter one thinks he has been perman- ently cured. This is due to the fact that the cause has not been remov- ed.

All of the Finkelstein and Ruben theatres in Minneapolis and St. Paul have booked special programmes of motion pictures and vaudeville. At the State theotre, the largest and most beautiful picture theatre in the entire state, the management has secured for the week of June 6th the entertaining services of Gilda Gray, the world’s highest paid theatrical _, star and the former Ziegfield Follies star... Gilda Gray is that amazing, blue “shimmy” dance and the South Sea blue-eyed girl, who first invented the Island Dance of Love. The story of Gilda Gray's rise from comparative obscurity to fame, for- tune .and the notch where she is paid $10,000 for each week's work, , reads like a portion of the Cinder- ~~ ella myth, which we Americans are used to, but which is ever of interest. Raised and educated in Milwaukee, Ww Gilda.Gray started her thea- trical career as an entertainer in the cabarets of her home town. Then Chicago drew her, and finally she went to New York. There, un- known and unheralded, she .attract- -, ed the attention of Flo. Ziegfeld, famous producer of the Follies. Her chance came and he starred her. She repaid him by proving the most sen- ional attraction he ever starred’” ' in any of his revues.
