Roosevelt spent his most active years | on the Elkhorn ranch bordering on the Bad Lands. Here. | while repairing his shattered health, Roosevelt. developed that broad, compelling manner which enabled him to cap-! ture the imagination of the nation as perhaps no man has; since Lincoln. | The nation at large knows little of the Bad Lands. His- | tory texts picture this region as a barren waste where the} Sioux tribes made their last stand in the race war for con- trol of the northwest. The scenic aspects of this picturesque | tract have never been exploited. The rank and file of North | Dakota people have yet to be “sold” on the possibilities of | the Bad Lands as a national park. | No photograph can reproduce the scenic splendor of this region. An assortment of multi-colored clay formations startling mineral erosions, petrified stumps, lend this tra allurement. The Bad Lands have everything to commend them as a national park. As Roosevelt National Park, the | Bad Lands would perpetuate the memory of a man whom j the state of North Dakota reveres as one of its own people. The plausibility of the park project is attested by Ray- mond H. Torrey, field secretary of the national conference on state parks, who recently completed a survey of the Bad Lands for the federal park service. He remarked at the | conclusion of his tour: “My visual memory carries many striking and beautiful | bits of scenery, but none of quite the remarkable character | of the Bad Lands. Their highest use, it seems to me, will be their Jevelopment as a recreational area, in which grow- | ing numbers of people from all over our country may come | ‘0 enjoy their unique charm.” \ MORE OPTIMISM NEEDED It is generally agreed that the economic condition of the| \farmers isn’t what it ought to be, and that it is necessary that it should be improved, for the general welfare of the coun- try. The farm is the original source of most of our wealth. The influence of a depressed agriculture is certain to be in- juriously felt by every element in industry. Excessive farm pessimism, however, is harmful to agri- cultural interests. The.constantly proclaimed theory that farming has become an unprofitable industry, a “losing game,” has served to depress farm values and restrict farm credit. If it were constantly proclaimed that banking, mer- chandising, or publishing a newspaper has ceased to be prof- itable, the number of bankruptcies in these lines of activity would be greatly increased. i The political “friends” of the farmer who have been painting pictures of general bankruptcy in the farming in- dustry have done agriculture immense economic harm. Such agitation is reflected in the downward trend of farm land values. Farm conditions are much better than they were five years ago, and they are steadily growing better. It is ad- mitted that the farmer has been the chief sufferer from war inflation and peace time deflation. He has been hard hit by a rising level of wages and other costs in industry, without a commensurate increase in farm product prices. There is a serious determination on the part of the govern- ment and on the part of the farmers themselves to effect relief from this abnormal condition. Optimism will help some. And there is no question about the future of farming in a country possessing such an enormous capacity for con- sumption of tarm products. BUILDING HOMES Real estate experts tell us that the building activities which are going forward all over the country constitute the greatest building program ever undertaken by any nation, ancient or modern. Last year the amount of new building in the United States totaled five and three-quarter billions. It is freely predicted that the total for 1925 will go over the six billion mark. _ There are, of course, several reasons for this. The nor- mal building program received a setback during the World ar and, in some sections, we have not entirely caught up. en the cities of the nation are developing rapidly and this is necessitating building improvements of various kinds. © Of course the giant buildings in the centers of the various cities are the most imposing when we figure up the financial totals, but it is even more satisfactory to consider the num- ber of modest homes which are springing up in every pro- Evessive city and town. : £ People who formerly lived in down town tenement dis- tricts are now moving to the suburbs and buying homes. They can do this first because they are making higher wages and second, because the cheap automobile and the bus line have made it possible for them to get down from the out- skirts of the city in a hurry. As the automobile and other means of rapid transit develop, the cities and towns continue to expand outward as well as skyward. - = This ‘is a healthy sign and is one which makes the de- yelopment of the automobile worth while. The more home- ywners and home-lovers there are in America the less chance for the Bolshevik in the land of the free. 7 Doubtless the first thing Clarence Darrow will do when he gets into that Tennessee court will be to enter a plea of nomic sacrifice and discipline has This sounds like the opening lines of the “Marseillaise,” but | ‘aillaux adds unpoetically that there isnt a minute to lose.

The tiny pebbles on the pebble wall had come rolling down about them until the children were! almost buried up to their ears. To make matters worse, the Bean- hooter- to whom the wall be- longed, came along and read them | a lecture on manners, which they didn't like at all. i But finally he rolled up his lecture and put it into his pocket. “There!” said he. “Too much is ple} Now tell me about, your- 8 vhere you are going and} where you came from and what you are here for.

But their toes caught, and more pebbles came roll- ing down, bringing the Twins with them. There they were, just as be- fore, buried to their necks. “Ha, ha!

And the only way you may e my permission is to shoot at a mark with my long bean shooter. But first I'll blow you out of that.” So he took his long bean shooter and blew and instantly all the peb- bles around the Twins- blew away and they were free. “See the daisies in yonder field id the Bean-Shooter-Man to Nick. “Well, take my shooter and blow off the tenth petal on the daisy that stands exactly in the middle of the field.” Nick put some tiny pebbles into his mouth and blew. “Good!” cried the Bean-Shooter- Man. “It's off.” Then to Nancy. “See the star over yonder tree? No? Well, it’s there just the same. Blow a hole through the middle.” Nancy took the long pipe and blew. So o ' i .

FABLES ON HEALTH GET PLENTY OF FRESH AIR | Every one who is able to walk at/ one, arouses one to activity. It awakens, vitalizes, vivifies. Homes should be provided with sleeping porches. The added cost they give to the construction of a house is paid back tenfold by in- creased health and vigor. Closed doors and windows are not so common during summer. But during the winter, many sleep in al- most air-tight rooms. Yet cold air is the great blessing of the human race.

They make a bigger profit on goods sold in this manner than on merchandise sold in the store. It used to be that the kids who di: ported in the fountain pools in Ma: ison Square, Washington Square and other Manhattan park plots would run at the mere sight of a cop. Now they pay no attention to the police because they know the grown-ups who watch them will boo the cops into subjection if the cops try to chase ithem out of the fountains. It is evident that there are many future merchant princes among these street urchins who gather in the fountains. At the tender age of eight or ten they have developed a fine commercial sense. They dive in the water to ret coins tossed there by the spectators, and this has proved so profitable for the kids that they have lost amateur standing. lize that if spectators had ige they would throw into the pool.
