In| the schools, in the homes, in the churches and the | newspapers, the value of accident prevention is to be stressed. | The North Dakota Safety Council, under the di- rection of Frank Milhollan, is sponsoring this “week.” It is the climax of more than a year of untiring effort™on the part of Milhollan and his cowerkers. Through the council’s work, citizens of North Dakota are being given a clearer insight into ways and means of accident prevention. They are beginning to realize that the cardinal principle of accident prevention is one of individual responsi- bility. Too many of our accidents have occurred just because someone was unsoundly sure that the “other fellow” would watch out. By carrying this campaign into the schools and churches, the state council is doing good work. The youth of the land must bear a great share of the burden of accident prevention. Neglect of some of the rules of safety have been the cause of mishaps in which children have figured. Reempha sizing of these rules and continued reference to them after tuis week has passed should help to re- duce the accident roll. Some of us may have been too obtuse in realiz- ing the need for our aid in making this state safe. But by advocacy of safety rules through the great forums of present-day life, there shauld be a re- awakening >f interest in one of our most press- ing problems; a realization that each one must play his part, and play it sanely. Killing the Goose his enegry, in his own way, to making America a| better place to live in, have done very well, both | financially and otherwise. The gifted cynic, H. L.| Mencken, cannot travel 20 miles without seeing the! fact recorded in the newspapers. Leopold Stokowski | and Rosa Ponselle are known throughout the coun- | try, and are far from being poverty-stricken. We average pretty well, after all. The people | who influence our cultural life most profoundly may | not know the rewards that come to a home-run hit- ter or a steel magnate; but they are given ample recognition, nevertheless. Our Babe Ruths and Red Granges are mere froth on the surface. We need not let their money and fame make us pessimistic. Jealousy There is nothing more terrible than jealousy. A railway mail clerk in Auburn, Wash., became for 14 years. He feigned illness while working one night, crept home with a revolver in his hand, and, in front of his home, shot her su that she may die. Later it developed that the mecting he had i truded. upon was completely innocent. His sus: picions were utterly unfounded. had been led astray by the fantasms of his jealous brain. Yet, ordinarily, he was a quict, peaceable, sensi- ble man. Jealousy can truly be said tw have crazed him, temporarily. The man who allows himself to harbor the first grow to a destroying flame. It is the mest dan- gerous emotion one can indulge i fs Permanent Apparently that Georgia gentleman known as Ty Cobb has become one of ‘the permanent features of our national life—something that, like the pocr and the saxophone player in the next block, will be al- ways with us. It was many years ago that we first thrilled to} his picturesque deeds. Annually, for some time, ment. But— a typical Cobb stunt by stealing home while the pitcher held the ball. He must be a fixture. We believe that our chil- dren will still be watching Ty Cobb play ball. Advice For Legislators When the Ohio legislature recessed the cther day, newspaper correspondents, summarizing its work, agreed that its outstanding accomplishment legislation that certain members had offered. That’s a pretty good record, even if it is a nega- tive one. We are reminded, in this connection, of a remark made once by an engineer on a Cunard line steamer. This engineer said that he wanted | Some day to set up a big sign in his engine room: “Leave Things Alone.” That might not be bad advice for our legisla- tures, The gentleman who killed the goose that laid the = Gelden eggs has long been looked upon as one of “Sginkind’s most accomplished idiots.” - “7 ge¥et it almost seems, now and then, as if some “of our friends in France had taken him as their eamadel. = *poring the summer months hotel and restaurant &<:dteepers, shop owners and the like in Paris and the iviera make millions of dollars from American ae The amount of money left in France each ’ by visiting Americans is simply stagger- take it away and a very sizable slice of the ~ French national income would be gone. #633 ¥et the French have been ‘making no bones aboyt he ‘the fact that it is the American dollar, rather than e . American visitor, that they like. During the last few months, with tourist trade at an ebb, the French have been outspoken in their relief at the absence of Americans. Such Americans as do go to Paris find cool stares, or outright insults, the , order of the day. Sooner or later, unless the French acquire a few manners, this will have its effect. The American tourist will discover what the discriminating trav- --eler has long known—that there are many other ” places in Europe just as charming and picturesque as Paris. He will begin to give the ‘French capi- tal the go-by, and will hie himself instead to places like Munich, Vienna, Geneva, Naples and the . Seandinavian countries, leaving his dollars in these splaces rather than in France. And the Frenchman will thereupon discover that +e. has killed the goose that laid the golden eggs. “This is the sort of thing that is very apt to shappen in the near future unless French manners improve considerably. In many ways, we believe, +. it would be a rather wholesome thing, all around. American tourists would discover that Europe has many charming cities aside from Paris; and the French would assimilate a much-needed lesson. At Present-Day Heroes You can get a pretty fair line on any society by studying the kind of men that it makes its heroes. ‘We know practically all we need to know of the old Teutonic tribes, for example, through our knowl- edge that the warrior was the only man who could gain homage among them. Similarly, we can judge ancient Greece through the honors the Greeks be- stowed on philosophers, scientists and sculptors. The way France reverences her great writers tells ‘us much about the high level of French culture. “If we apply the same test to our™own country, weemay get results that seem, at first, a bit dis- _ Who are our chief heroes—the people we honor “and reward. above others? >-Piek_a few names at random: Henry Ford, Babe Gene Tunney, Mary Pickford, John D.

We have captains Rol Another Item Anne Parrish, novelist, returning from a tour of South America, reports that the “jazz age” is be- ginning to spread to Brazil and Argentina. The old customs still prevail, she says, but slowly they are breaking down. Girls are smoking, chap- erons are being ignored—and in a few years South American young people, hitherto so meticulous in their deportment, will be much like our own young- sters. It’s the influence of the United States that is doing it. We might ask ourselves if that won’t be a terrific thing for the already strained friend- ship of South America fer this country. Development Effort Successful (Fargo Forum) :: North Dakota’s organized effort to hasten thav development which is certain to come to the state when more farmers are tilling fewer acres more intensively than is possible with the large. acreage that its farmers are now handling, is mecting with gratifying success. Mr. C. E. Danielson, president of the Greater Editorial Comment thas undertaken the task of hastening the state’s cess which is attending the: organization's efforts at the annual meeting of the board of. directors, held at Valley City. It is a fact, well known to all residents of North Dakota who have made a study of the situation, that there are farmers in every section of the state who are making exceptional successes in their farm- ing business. Almost invariably these are the men who have a large share of their farms planted to forage crops and are equipped to handle livestock. Many producers of dairy’ products, poultry, hogs, beef and sheep have found that these farm products have been profit-makers, largely because they have brought comparatively high prices, while building “up their farm land. Farm economists see opportunity to expand the Production of most of these products with the probability that they will continue to bring good prices, particularly on the cheap lands and under the favorable soil and climatic conditions of North Dakota. The Greater North Dakota association has been carrying information about these North Dakota opportunities to tenant farmers in. other states they are here. This campaign has been carried on extensively and intensively. It is beginning to get results. Farm lands are moving. The effects of this movement will undoubtedly be cumulative, rolling up an ever increasing volume seems B , athletes, moving picture celebrities— ‘our artists, are out of it.

What do you think you’re up to?” he demanded, as the curling bronze lashes lifted and Cherry's dazed golden eyes tried to focus on| the unfamiliar face bent above her. “Who's that, Faith?” Cherry cried, trying to sit up and pointing at the nearest of the doctors. “It’s a doctor, honey.

L. Roherty, If the creek were dammed just be- low the Apple Creek bridge, it would make a lake approximately two miles long, ranging in depth from 10 to 11 feet at the southern end to three to four feet at the northern end, just below the South Soo tracks, Roherty said.

McKinnon of the state high- way department told of the state and federal highways in Burleigh county artd said that while Bisma‘ck and Burleigh county as well as Man- dan and Morton county may seem to have lagged in their construction program, it has been because they have been devoting their efforts to- ward completion of the Memorial Bridge here. A total of 170 miles of highways on which state and federal money may be expended have been desig- ited in the county, and of this total 15.4 miles on highway 10 have been earth graded and 7.5 miles gravel The re- maining 22 miles of this highway. is under contract for grading and 12 miles from Wilton south on No, 6 is also under contract, he said. He declared that Highway 36 from Wilton to the Kidder county line and No, 41 from Wilton to the McLean county line south of Mercer are the two most important projects, next to those already under way, as they will bring in much outside business to the city.

Enough water dashed into the boat to sink it and they were treated to an icy cold bath. The party was on the way to the shack of Jim Crawford, alleged thief of 12 sacks of sugar from a North- ern Pacific freight car here and-now confined in the Burleigh county jail. Armed with a search warrant, they entered his and found a quan- tity. of miscellancous articles,; in- cluding tools, magnetoes, a surveyor's chain and other equipment alleged to have been stolen from cars at the highway commission park. tity of becr was also found.

GILBERT SWAN, STORM SEWER CONSTRUCTION | IS AUTHORIZED Ordinance Creating . Sewer Improvement District Giv- en First Reading Upon the recommendation of the commissioner of streets and the city engineer, an ordinance was given. its first reading at the meet- ing of the city commission Mon- day night which will create a sewer improvement district for the construction of storm water sew- ers on Twelfth street from Broad- way to Avenue A and on Thir- teenth strect from Thayer avenue to Avenue B. The ordinance will be up for second reading and final passage at the.next meeting of the commission. The commission’ adopted a reso- lution Mcnday night providing that the city assume 10 per cent of the cost of the paving laid on Thayer and . Rosser av Tent street, around the St, ehas hos- |. pital, last summer. This’ is in keeping with the custom followed by the commission when other paving was constructed. idewalks Ordered Built Construction of @ sidewalk was ordered along the north side of lots 3, 4 and 5, block 35, Williams’ Survey, and a sidewalk and two driveways were ordered built along the east side of Hannifin street for a distance of 130 feet north of Rosser. Transfer of the balance of $673.20 remaining in the Custer Park fund to the city park board yas authorized by the commission. Recommendation to the county board that it accept the offer ré& cently made by Miss Ruth E. Wyn- koop for the purchase of certain city lots was made by the commis- sion: Miss Wynkoop has offered to purchase lots 19, 20, 21 and 22, block 13, McKenzie addition, for £125 per lot. The property went to the county at tax sale some time ago and the board agreed to ac- cept the offer providing the city commission approved of it. Similar action was taken by the commission on the petition of | Adolph Schlenker, who stated that | he is willing to pay all delinquent taxes and special assessments 02, the north one-third of lot 1, block 5, N. P. addition, providing the Renny, ard interest was abated. ‘axes on this property have not been paid since 1914. A compromise proposal made by Marcus Edborg for the payment of 1923 taxes was considered by the commission, which decided to recommend to the county, board that the proposal be accepted. The request of W. P. Lomas for) permission tc erect a filling sta-) tion at the corner of Main avenue and Ninth street, presented to the; commission some time was | again brought up Monday ‘ night ; was referred to Commissioners French and Wachter for investiga- tion. To Erect Street Signs’ Bids for street naming signs will be advertised for shértly by the city auditor, acting under in- structions given him by the com- mission Monday night.
