(Official City State and County Newspaper) BEAUTY CLOSE AT HAND Never be in too much of a hurry to lament the passing of old-time romanee and color from the world. It often happens that the new, which seems prosaic and dull at first, will take on byes more haunting and compelling than those that have vanished. Three quarters of a century ago the American who went traveling had to put up with a lot of discom- forts; but he traveled romantically, according to our standards. If he went overland he rode in a big coach drawn by six horses; if he traveled by river he boarded one of the big, gingerbread-and-plush steam- ers that Mark Twain loved; if he went by sea he em- barked in a graceful, white-winged clipper, one of the most beautiful methods of conveyance ever devised by man. Today he gets there quicker and enjoys much more comfort on the way; yet, to many people, a great deal of beauty and color have gone from the world with the passing of stage coach, river steamer and sailing vessel. A solid Pullman train is an elegant thing to tide in; but it isn’t quite as dashing a thing to look at as an old-time stage coach, with men in beaver hats seated on top, with the driver flourishing his long whip and the guard sounding periodic blasts on his trumpet. So we rather take it. for granted that our age, while better furnished ‘and more efficient than the age our grandfathers, is drabber. The sun may shine a8 brightly, the wind may blow as fresh and clear, as of * eld; but it does seem as if something worth preserv- , ing for its own sake had departed from us. We are + pretty well wedded to modern ideas, so we accept 2 that the inevitable price. But, deep down, meny of us secretly regret it. i i may be, though, that we are wrong. Perhaps our grandfathers looked on the stagecoach as & 1 bumpy, slow, unwieldy sort of thing and failed to A appreciate its aesthetic qualities. Charles Dickens } was not at all impressed by the “romantic” Mississippi river steamers; he loathed them. The up-to-date ocean steamer has a beauty of its own, too; perhaps we would see it more clearly if it occurred to us to look for it. 1 On top of all of this we are devising a fourth meth- od of travel that, ultra-modern though it is, is § certainly clothed in as much color and sparkle as any ever invented. The airplane is just coming into general use as a passenger carrier; and if you have ever waited at an airport and seen a great silver monoplane soar overhead, rapidly taking form from the mere speck it was when first sighted, circling lazily over the field and then swooping to earth like an unbelievably graceful bird, you will agree that no ohe ever traveled more romantically than the modern who goes by air. Our children, it may be, will grow up to take the Very likely they will ci euto ride. And—who knows?—they may look back on the outmodeled days of 1928 and sigh for the color and beauty of the old days, complaining that while an airplane is certainly speedy it lacks the dash and \, thrill that attended the old Pullman trains. a Stranger things have happened. It is only human B nature to see beauty in that which is old and to fail = to sve it in that which is close at hand. fe are t bound to ascribe an especial appeal to anything that ‘we happen to have missed. That is what we get for {7 being a nation of romanticists, E LAND MOVEMENT INDICATED 3, The Greater North Dakota Association Kas been checking up the land movement for the period ending June 30.

If Americans could spend more time in the open, they would be the better for it. They are spending much more than they once did, but they ean spend still more without indulging in excesses. AL SMITH MAKES AN ISSUE Prohibition has become one of the big issues of the national campaign overnight. Al Smith created it in a telegram to the Houston convention, sent in care of Senator Joseph T. Robinson, vice presidential nominee. In that telegram he announced that he will vigor- ously enforce the prohibition law if he is elected, but that he intends to work for its modification. His statement came after dry Democrats had given | him a dry platform to run upon that they were quite confident met the issue and decided it for the Democrats. Regardless of the individual opinion it probably is just as well that the issue be made now and that it go to the people with the candidacy of Mr. Smith the medium. There is as a matter of fact no change in the stand of Smith upon the liquor question. He was always wet, will always be wet and without question meant what he said when he pledged himself to enforcement. Without question, too, he has estranged from him- self the support of thousands of dry Democrats in the South. Without question he has won for himself the support of thousands of wet Republicans. Whether his new assets are greater than his re- cently acquired liabilities is a question that cannot be determined out of hand. The governor of New York in effect in his message to Senator Robinson went on record as a modifica- tionist. Smith’s position is made entirely clear in one para- graph of his message to Senator Robinson. In that he said: “Common Lited ind that corruption of la’ compels us to admit w enforcement officials, bootlegging and lawlessness are now preva- lent throughout this country. I am satisfied that without returning to the old evils that grew from the saloon which years ago I held and still hold always ought to be a defunct institution in this country, by the applica- tion of the democratic principles of local self- government and state rights we can secure real temperance, respect for law and eradica- tion of the existing evils.” As a matter of fact both wets and drys should wel- come the issue which Smith has made as he has made it, for there is opportunity for them both in it. The wets have a champion. The drys have an opportunity for education upon the whole subject they have been neglecting. Mr. Hoover will shortly issue quite an- other kind of a statement. He will declare for law enforcement and uphold prohibition. Then the battle will be on in earnest. WHERE SOVIET AND FASCIST MEET It is rather odd, when you stop to think about it, of|that the major part of the job of hunting for the missing Nobile aerial expedition should rest on the shoulders of the Soviet government of Russia. Nobile’s outfit was strictly representative of Fas- cism. Mussolini had figuratively laid his hands on the Italia and blessed it before it left. The dirigible sailed north as a mission from the most despotic, autocratic land in Europe. And now the job of rescue is being undertaken by Russia! Mussolini’s men are being sought by fol- lowers of Lenin. The world’s most radical nation is tushing to the aid of the world’s most conservative nation. Bravery knows no fatherland. When men are in danger, other men will extend help regardless of Political and economic theories. Even Soviet Russia and Fascist Italy can, momentarily, join hands. HONORING BENEDICT ARNOLD A new highway through the Maine wilderness into Canada and Quebec will be opened shortly. It follows the route taken by Benedict Arnold and his troops in the gallant but ill-starred attempt by the American colonists to take Quebec during the Revolution, and will be, in a way, a kind of memorial to Arnold, It is only fair that Arnold should get such a me- moriel. His name is immortal as a symbol of treach- ery; yet, prior to his defection, erved the American cause bravely and well. He will never be enshrined as one of our heroes, but we might as well recognize his very real contributions to our fight for independ- i ence, If Arnold had died during the attack on Quebec he would be immortalized as a great, heroic American, THE SAFE FOURTH With Independence Day at hand the old question of a Safe and Sane Fourth is in the air again. Much progress has been made in the last decade or so in regard to the promiscuous use of fireworks. Most cities now have ordinances forbidding the sale of such things. But most suburbs do not; in nearly every case the citizen can drive a few miles out into the country and buy all the firecrackers he wants. Exploding noisy firecrackers on the Fourth of July essentially an uncivilized way of celebrating the nation’s birthday. It is, moreover, very dangerous, as hospital authorities, who each year see children die in agony from lockjaw, can tell you. Eventually we probably will have to have state-wide regulations cov- ering thé sgle of fireworks. Some optimists are just too lazy to kick. Some of these song hits should have missed. The only arguments some People listen to are their own. A suceéssful man always runs things; he never walks them. | Editorial Comment | SWEDEN'S HERO (Minneapolis Journal) The world will post in its hall of heroes the name of rg, daring Swedish aviator who General Umberto Nobile, only to be stranded in the Arctic himself when he tried to go back after other marooned explorers.

Ea) HOW THE HEART WORKS The blood carries food, oxygen and water to the cells of the body, and remcves their waste products, carrying them to -he organs of elim- ination. It also regulates the body’s temperature by conveying heat from the warm interior to the cooler parts, or acts like the water cir- culation of an automobile, by con- veying the blood cooled by the skin evaporation to the parts that are too hot. In this way we always maintain a temperatu: : in health of about 98.6 degrees. The flowing of the blood is the principal transportation system of the living cells of our body, which would die a quickly if this cir- culation ceased. The circulation of the blood is maintained in an interesting manner. The heart is the most important or- gan for propelling the blood, but the heart alone is inadequate for all of this work, and it is assisted by a contractive force o: the arteries which pushes the blood forward with a pulse-like movement that is easily felt; in addition, th. veins and lym- phatics are equipped with valves that compel the blood and lymph to flow toward the heart and do not allow a backward flow. This pro- cess is freatly hastened '» exercise. The lungs also play some part in stimulating the flow of blood and there seems to be 4 ivirly definite ratio between the number of breaths taken and ‘he regularity of the heart beats. This is shy deep breathing and exercise improve a poor circulation. If you double up your fist, you can see just about how big your heart is. There are two streams of blood vassing through the heart; one from the muscles ard tissues of the | body, throvgh the veins, into the! right auricle of the hart, which empties into the right ventricle by a valve which closes when the heart contracts, forcing the blood up the pulmonary artery into the lungs. The other flow is from the lungs to the other side of the heart int» the left auricle which empties ty a valve into the left ventricle, which coutract. and forces the blood back ts the tissues again, completing the circuit. The arrangement of t!. valves is just the same as if two muscular force pumps were placed side by} side, “each handling a different! One stream is forced through the lungs, and the other through the rest of the body. You see, there are four cavities in Two are auricles on the ‘upper part of the heart into which the veins flow, and these auricles empty into the lower cavities of the heart which, having the work of panne the blood forward, are eavily muscled. These ventricles} also “~have valves which prevent a back flow of blood from the arteries after the ventricles have emptied and while they are filling again from the! auricles. The left auricle is filled by veins from the lungs containing HEALTH “DIET ADVICE N'Dr Franks Mc Wits Me Sast blag: ec That makes four sets of valves it. the heart.

These capillaries are so thinly walled that the nutri- ment can penetrate out to the cells, and they are so closely grouped that even the smallest needle point thrust into the tissues will rupture many of them. The capillaries then unite together ani form the veins which carry the blood back to the heart. If you place your hand on your chest you can feel the heart beat. This is a little to the left in most prople, but in some rar. cases the heart is on the other side. The heart is surrounded by a lubricating sac called the peri.arcium. This is just above the diaphragm, and the stom- ach and intestines are just below. This is why gas pressure so often affects the heart. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Question: F. W. H. writes: “Sev- eral years ago in cranking my car I had a sudden “crick” in the last joint of the back which caused a miserable pain at the time, and more or less ever since. It is in the back, extends down the front of the right leg, and mainly in the hip joint. Is worse at night and early morning, but wears off through the day. Am past sixty.” Answer: You probably strained your back enough either to displace one of the vertebrae or to move the sacro-iliac out of position. As sev- eral years have elapsed since the in- jury, it will no doubt take a long time to bring about a cure. The best treatment is with osteopathy or chiropractic, and the use of hot applications to your back. Most practitioners using manipulative therapeutics have electrical appli- ances or therapeutic lights which will produce better effects in the treatment of your back than any form of heat that you can use in your own home. Until such treat- ment is started, have some member of your family apply hot compresses to your back once or twice daily for ten or fifteen minutes with several changes of hot towels. , Question: Mrs. A. J. asks: “What, is lemon milk, and how is it pre- pared? Answer: Lemon milk is a kind of sour milk or substitute for butter- milk and is made by mixing the juice of one or more lemons with a Pint of sweet milk and shaking vig- orously together. Lemon milk is very easily digested, and may be taken by anyone.
