(Official City, State and Ceanty, Newspaper) At | Another Success Story The “success story” is more or less an American | institution. It has been told so many times, in so} many different ways, that we sometimes get tired | of hearing it. | Yet it is a good thing for us to be reminded, now and then, that perseverance, dogged determination, and plain, every-day honesty have their reward | occasionally. | j ' The latest variation of the heartening but hack- } neyed success story concerns a young man named | } Jack Hohenberg. Four years ago Jack, who was then 17, walked t into the office of the Seattle Star and announced , that he wanted a job as a reporter. He was told i that the staff was full, and was advised to resume his studies at the university. But he wouldn't be discouraged. , “See here!” he said. “You're passing up some- | thing. 1 don’t just want a job. I don’t even want any pay. All I want is a chance to get somewhere. This is the place I'm going to work. If I’m will- ing to put my time against your experience, work carly and late and hit the ball just as if I were | { getting a fat salary, I don’t see that it’s going to be any money out of your pocket.” The city editor relented. Hohenber¢ was given a job . . . without salary. + All summer he worked as a cub reporter. He worked hard. He was given all of the disagreeable tasks that are toybe found around a newspaper of- | fice. . He took them without a murmur, and thought ap assignments on dull days. To shorten the story, Hohenberg eventually won| a regular job that had money attached to it. He} stayed with the Star for a while, then he went to} New York, seeking to improve his ability by a | wider range of experience. * + In New York he worked at night on a newspaper, and by day studied in the Columbia University | School of Journalism. It was long hours and hard | work, with little time left for play, but Hohenberg , plugged away steadily. : | And now cofmes the climax of the story. The! other day, when the Pulitzer prize committee met ito make its awards, Jack Hohenberg was givenp@i. ' $1800 traveling scholarship. He will sail soon ‘ for Europe, to spend a solid year in Paris, studying “at the Sorbonne—the geal of every student. Pretty soft? Well, he’s going to have it pretty “nice for the next year, but he earned it. And it is | heartening to read about him, Two Glimpses This country is in a pretty prosperous condition ; nowadays, and things like hunger and want don’t . gome very close to most of us. But it is just as | Swell that we who are so fortunate do not forget | ; that hunger and want do still exist. Here are two little glimpses into the lower strat. of our prosperous nation, culled from the day’s grist | ‘of news: | The first tells about Mrs. Frances Stenglern of | New York. | _ Mrs. Stenglern had a husband and a baby. The | ‘husband was out of work; Mrs. Stenglern had a/ jdeb as a janitress, for which she was paid $10 4 month. On this the three of them had to live. | tj It was too much. Mrs. Stenglern, seeing only} ‘starvation ahead, abandoned her baby in a door- tway, hoping that whoever found it would not let it die of hunger. | When she got home she found that her husband, | by getting odd jobs, had accumulated $32. This was a godsend. The two went back to get the baby. | : It was gone. i | Well, the story ends pretty well. Mrs. Steng- wn went to the police, they found her baby for’ ter, and she and her husband are trying it again.! ‘ And that’s that story. ; + The other story tells about Abraham Bass. > He,is 90 years old and looking for a job. For! § years he worked for one company, but finally he got laid off—too old. Now he’s tramping the} dtreets looking for work. “Something’l turn up,” the says hopefully. ** There you are. Two Kittle glimpses of the shad- Gwy side of our prosperous country. *! What is to be done? That's a hard question. Probably it will be impossible for us ever to de- F¥ise any system that will entirely prevent such j tragedies. There will always be misfits; there will _ ‘allways be people who grow old without having | : fheen able to save. But it is good for us to think about those stories jionally. If it does nothing else, it keeps us growing too complacent. The Arts and Happiness hat a lady in Des Moines, Ia., has seen taking piano lessons at the age of 76 sufficiently unusual to be sent; of very elementary compositions; but she is going to get a lot of personal enjoyment out of tt: Americans might well take a tip from her. We! are too much inclined to think that the only reu-| son for studying music, painting or the like is the} desire ts earn a livelihood as a musician or artist. | We forget that even a slight acquaintance with| any form of art adds immensely to one’s enjoy- ment of life; that to partake, even in a very limite | way, of the creative work of the musician or artist 7.20 is to introduce a fullness and richness into one’s life that are beyond value. It seems odd, perhaps, to think of a banker or realtor dabbling with water colors in his off hours; t> think of an insurance salesman spending his eve-| nings playing the violin; to think of a commission merchant going home at night to compose verses.! Yet many men do exactly those things, and would not quit for worlds. Their pictures are never seen | by outsiders; they never play in public; their poems generally go unread by all but themselves. But/ that makes no difference, These men are having | a good time, and that is all that counts, Once the American people, as a whole, realize | the enjoyment and satisfaction that even the most | unskillful dabbling in the arts will bring, it is safe to say that cur music teachers, art schools and, suv on are going to do a land office business. The go!f| course and baseball parks may lose a bit of patron- | age; but we'll be a happier people. | Used to Obedience We Americans are spoken of as a liberty-loving | race, and doubtless we are; but the fact remains | that in minor matters, at least, we are pretty well broken te the iron hand of authority. We love tu be bossed; we are accustomed to obedience, | This may sound odd, in view of our gunmen, rum- ; runners and law violators generally; but it is true. | The other day, in a large mid-western city, there was a certain busy street intersection where a traf-| fie cfficer was missing. Out into this intersection strode a civilian—a rather ragged, down at the} heels civilian. All on his own hook he began to di- | rect traffic. With lordly waves of his hand he or-| dered one stream to halt; with equally lordly ges- | tures he ordered another stream‘to proceed. i And he got away with it! Motorist after motor- | ist came to that corner and meekly obeyed the com- mands cf this ragged volunteer. No cne questioned him; no-driver defied him. Yet he most obviously {: wags entirely unofficial. We must love to be bossed. That’s about the only explanation. ‘ Following Steel’s Footsteps? | Wollman’s Review, New York financial paper, hazards the prediction that the American petroleum industry will eventually follow the pathway of the steel industry. A quarter of century ago, it points out, the steel | industry was in the same situation that now af- flicts oil. There were overproduction, price cut- ting, secret rebates and the like. Steel eventually got organized; now it is a remarkably stabilized industry. Wollman’s Review predicts that the pe- troleum industry will do likewise: Doubtless it will be just.as Wel. | We are getting | over our old fear of mammoth industrial combines. For, after all, they are more efficient than scat- tered concerns, and efficiency is, for Americans, the one essential. A Good Sign We have had # hunch all along that our govern- ment was acting pretty wisely in the Chinese cfisis. Now we know it is. What makes us sure?, Simply the fact that the North China Daily News, leading »British news- paper in Shanghai, is bitterly attacking our policy. ! The North China Daily News would like noth- ing better than to see British and American sol- diers and salicrs swing the mailed fist about China without regard for the rights,af.the Chinese or the | tenets of common justi¢e. It frankly would con- | tinue the old system of inequality and racial discrimination—by force of arms. | So if that paper is displeased with our conduct, ! we may congratulate ourselves heartily. Natchez Gives Freely Natchez, Miss., has oversubscribed its Red Cross | flood relief quota by giving five times the sum! asked of it. { That is a fine record. It would be notable for, ny city; it is more than notable for Natche: For Natchez is in the midst of the flood district. | It is in the midst of the cotton belt, where the drop | in cotton prices has dealt prosperity a body blow. | Money isn’t too plentiful there; many people have | very little to spare. | That's why Natchez can feel proud. It has given} the rest of the country a fine example in whole-! hearted giving. Editorial Comment Price Discriminations (St. Paul Dispatch) | Very probably as the result of the decision of the United States supreme court, handed down April 11, declaring unconstitutional for contraven- tion of interstate commerce the Minnesota law of 1923, forbidding discrimination in the price paid at various points within the state for dairy products, the state legislature has just enacted another such measure. The law, first passed in 1921, seems to have been foreshadowed by earlier enactments as remote as 1909, and to have been subject to strengthening amendment in 1923. The purpose of the law, as outlined by Minnesota before the supreme court, | was to prevent centralized creameries from monop-} olizing the business, by paying higher prices at Points where cooperative or independent creamer- ies were located and recouping the loss at such| Points by paying lower prices at points where no such competition existed. The contention of the Fairmount Creamery asso- ciation, challenging the law, was that the effect of the measure was to restrict the centralizer as to Price but to absolve the independent or cooperative creamery from any restriction. In this point the appellant was successful. ae The new law evidently attempts to comply with the recent decision. It'aims to. make equal, far price scales in all sections of: the state, regardless of the size, volume of ines elements. If this cari be done, though it Ny ae THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE + Wt | Being a Writer, It’s Up to Babe to Explain S So fa) 1987 & MEA SzRvicE, Bohn? £ “Churchill would either laugh at) us or haul Hutchinson into court on} a subpoena in regard to that threat- ening letter, and Hutchinson would| “Well, sir, I came know good and well that Churchill! one day and found couldn't actually pin the letter .on' tears. him.

I never felt more sure of anything’in my life.” When Faith and Bob entered the courtroom they found Adolph Bohn,| a former employer of Cherry's, on the witness stand. His examination by Churchill had evidently been in progress several minutes, for the facts of her employment with him had heen disposed of. “Now, Mr. Bohn, will you kindly tell the’ jury what your own feelings toward Miss Cherry Lane were?’ Churchill asked almost coaxingly. “I—I was very fond of her.
