(Official City, State and County Newspaper) THE MAKING OF A SOLDIER ‘Approximately 500 young men will spend the month of August at Fort Lincoln attending the sc hool of the soldier in the first Citizens’ Military Training Camp ever held at that post. It will be the pleasant privilege of this city to make their stay here as pleasant and as profitable as possible. They come from seven states to a camp in charge of a regular army officer who has taken a keen interest in citizens’ mifitary training camps and who made the camp at Fort Snelling an out- standing success from every viewpoint. Such schools as that which opens at Fort Lincoln ‘August 1 are the most effective preparedness meas- ures, The training they give is invaluable. They are peace insurance well worth while. A month in an army training camp is the finest kind of experience for any young man. The lessons of citizenship taught alone justify such undertakings. For 30 days the stu- dents at the C. M. T. C. here will live the life of the soldier. It is a rugged life, filled with work while the opportunity for play is not neglected. They will rub shoulders with fine types of manhood from all parts of the west. They will learn from sea- soned army officers many lessons invaluable in life whether they are ever called upon to give them prac- tical application or not. They will learn the necessity and effectiveness of group ipline. They will learn that there is no excellence without labor. There is a code of honor in the army simply conditioned that is full of inspiration for all who come in contact with it. It will be a month well spent for every man who attends. Bismarck has a keen interest in the forthcoming C. M. T. C. event at Fort Lincoln. There is no reason why it should not become one of the best camps of its kind in the country. Its location is ideal. The facilities for it are exceptionally good. So this city will welcome the students to the school of the soldier and pledge its effort to make the first |" training camp here such a success from every stand- point that it will rank among the best in the country and annually afford a worth-while opportunity for self- improvement and patriotic service to young men of the northwest, NORTH DAKOTA'S HARVEST TIME North Dakotans who love their state always find it beautiful. There is something big and grand about it on the bleakest day of winter when the storm king rides the northwest wind over its prairie reaches and whirls the drifting snow before him. It is beautiful in the springtime when the first note of the meadow lark is heard and the renaissance of budding life is here. It is beautiful in autumn with its lazy sunshine, the good fresh smell of new-plowed fields, the blue haze of the distant hills and the land- scapes of russet and yellow and gold with here and there the flame of the sumach for a bit of added color. But its bigness and breadth are especially emphasized just now when the grain fields are a billowy sea of promise stretching away as far as the eye can reach and turning to the glory of ripened grain and the promise of a bountiful harvest. It is a picture of pastoral quiet and majesty un- matched in all the world because of the sense of peace, plenty and security that it brings to the souls of men, The harvest time and the weeks preceding it are among the most beautiful of the North Dakota year. They are the time of fulfillment. Bountiful Nature has done its work. Sunshine and rain have created a miracle of transformation. The bare fields are laden; with crops that go to feed the world, to insure human happiness, to reward the farmer for his toil, to prove again that for the time, effort and capital invested there is no more productive spot in all the world than the lands of North Dakota. If you would appreciate the state you live in, if you ‘would sense the big things about it, stand tonight by a wheat field rippled by a twilight breeze in the red and gold of the sunset. There is majesty, there is peace, there is assurance of plenty. There is the quality of North Dakota that goes to the hearts of its men and women and makes them love its prairie lands and the bounty they bestow. ELLEN TERRY To theater goers of two and three generations ago news of the passing of Ellen Terry will recall a stage figure well loved in America. i Her tours of America in the closing years of a long and brilliant stage career remain a pleasant memory. They were triumphs merited by splendid art. She was the greatest Portia of all time because she loved the role and because she lived it as she enacted it. It was her favorite role and significantly enough it was the last in which she ever appeared upon the stage. Those who have been privileged to hear her superb reading of “the quality of mercy,” a passage in “The Merchant of Venice,” will recall a glorious stage pres- ence, and, with the possible exception of Julia Marlowe, one of the most marvelous voices of all time upon the English stage. Sarah Bernhardt, “the divine,” may have qualified as & greater emotional actress and her personality won her many admirers, but she had not the golden voice or the splendid stage presence of the truly sweet, digni- fied and womanly Ellen Terry. Yet the world that knew them loved them both, for each had distinctive For Ellen Terry it may truthfully be said that her partnership for over 24 years with Sir Henry constituted one of the most brilliant periods the English stage., Their interpretation of the Shakespearean drama gave it tremendous vogue and & profound influence upon the thinking and the role of Portia St. Andrew's university conferred upon her the degree of Doctor of Laws. Sundown came for a grand woman and one of the world’s greatest actresses in the tranquillity of the Kent countryside, beautiful in its pastoral simplicity. To America she sent a message of love and affec- tion. It was like her, for it was from the heart and voiced with the simple sincerity that made her a great j actress and endeared her to thousands who knew her 20 only by her stage interpretations. Ellen Terry lived usefully and well. Through her art she gave to the world ideals. They profoundly affected the happiness and well-being of thousands. POPULARIZING THE AIR Quite unconsciously the American people are being educated to the fact that travel by air is the most rapid modern transportation, is undertaken with a high degree of safety and is remaking the transportation map of the world. The recent Reliability Air Tour which passed through North Dakota was directed to that end. The forth- coming visit here of Martin Jensen, Oakland-to-Hono- lulu flyer, has the same objective. Because there are so many spectacular attempts to negotiate new air records and in many cases they are attended by disaster the public still regards air trans- portation as something more than the ordinary hazard. Yet that is hardly the case. Last year there was not a single fatal accident in the handling of the United States mail from New York to San Francisco and the percentage of failures of mail airplanes was something less than four in one hundred. Yet daily THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE service in all kinds of weather was given. The mail flyers negotiated storms, long stretches over mountain country. There were few forced landings. The modern airplane steadily is becoming more safe and efficient. That was evidenced in the types of planes which appeared at Minot Sunday as well as in the ease and accuracy with which they were operated. Their flights stirred thousands to admiration, re- stored confidence in the airship as a safe means of travel, and sent many a farm lad home to dream that night he was a heroic pilot in the big, blue up there. The air age is coming faster than those not near to its mechanics realize. The Reliability Tours and the visits of famous flyers are building up a public confi- dence that will hasten its already rapid development. | Editorial Comment | | MUSICIANS AND THE MOVIETONE (Chicago Tribune.) The musicians as organized in labor are seeking to obstruct use of the movietone and other tone and sound producing devices which are being developed and used in connection with the showing of moving pictures. The reproduction of dialogue does not c_.1cern them, but. the adaptation of the movietone for the musical ac- companiment of the picture does. Its general use would close the orchestra pit and silence the organ and the piano. A few musicians would take the place of thou- sands and a source of much employment would be dried up. So long as the reproduced music only partly fills the picture house requirements the musicians in their or- ganization have a hold on the situation. But when the devices meet all the needs this hold becomes a very slight one. It is the age old struggle between the man and the which the machine has alwavs won. Labor for the most part recognizes that virtually nothinz can be attained by fighting the machine, and much can be lost if intelligent perception does not suggest the neces- sary adjustments to new conditions, If they are under- taken in time there is a labor makeover which does not entail much distress. A delayed adjustment sometimes does mean serious disturbance of living conditions. The rule is that the machine wins and in that is one reason for general American success. WISDOM AT FORTY (Philadelphia Public Ledger) Henry Ford says in a current magazine article: to the age of 40 a man is in training—every is. He is assemblin, the tools with which to work. When the tools are at id they can be put to their real use.” Mr. Ford, at the age of 65, has much the mental at- titude of an enthusiastic youth with his career still be- fore him. At a time in life when many men think about “taking it easy” or retiring, he is in the midst of one of the most ambitious manufacturing ventures of the age. He has no thought of laying down the business tools— that years of experience have taught him to use so ef- fectively, In these strenuous days, when so much emphasis is laced on youth and its dynamic qualities, there has en an inclination to belittle the usefulness of the man who has passes his so-called prime. What is a man’s prime? Essentially it has nothing to do with calendar years, Baty, a man of 70 is more alert, more mentally acute than his sons. But over and above any mere physical and mental exuberance a man may retain, there is the judgment that comes only from long ex- perience. Until a man acquires judgment he is still “in training,” as Mr. Ford puts it.’ And it is this quality that justifies, and always will justify, the presence of the “old heads” in the purly-baely of everyday affairs. It is a right that the inexhaustible energy and enthu- siasm of youth should be held in high esteem. But equally estimable is the wisdom that is able to guide and control that energy with the elder hand of experience. DISABLED VETERANS CHEATED . (St. Paul News) Sick and wounded veterans have lefinitely given up their battle to wrest a living fr: the rocky land at Argonne Farms, 20 miles south of the Twin Cities. The state has just started foreclosure proceedings on farms on which the rural credits bureau loaned money .o the former soldiers. The land will be sur- rendered without protest. Back in 1922 shrewd land salesmen conceived the idea of selling land to service men at Argonne Farms and at Moose Lake. Agents of the United States veterans bureau were persuaded to approve the deal and the vet- erans were convinced that they had found a Utopia. The ex-soldiers were given rides in fine automobiles. Dinners, luncheons and entertainments were provided for them. Every known stunt of high powered sales- manship was utilized. The land itself looked beautiful npder @ covering of snow that completely covered the rocks, They bought at prices far in excess of the value. The Daily News called attention of the veterans bu- reau to the disgraceful scheme, foredoomed from the start to failure so far as the veterans were concerned. This paper sent men to Moose “ake and Argonne Farms to make a complete investigation. It found conditions hopeless and discovered evidence of collusion on the part of certain bureau employes, A representative of The Daily News then went to Washington and persuaded the veterans bureau to send an investigator to Minnesota, This man found the sit- uation even worse than Daily News ha: disclosed, but his sepert was suppret |, he wi rred to a different department and merous whitewash was applied to the whole affair. Anoth r investigator was sent to Minnesota and when his findings con- flemed those of the first, he was relieved of further juty. One by one the veterans deserted their land. Their savings were gone and they were too ill to “ight Today, we are told, but two former soldie: on the farms in the Argonne vroject. The: there because they have no nlace else to go. Neither has been able to raise any crops on his land. The Moose Lake project is in much the same condi- tion. The land promoters have their money. The former soldiers were able to pay for it because the state rural credits bureau advanced them money on mortgage. The soldiers now have nothing. The state will have the warthless land. The foreclosure suits mark the end of a dastardly ex- ploitation of men who gave their health and strength to fight for their country. Although some indictments na yy yy BY RODNEY DUTCHER (NEA Service Writer) Washington, July 25.—The danger of talking too much is ever present in polities. Tha:’s probably why, from year to year, important poli- ticians say less and less that might Possibly be interpr’ ed as meaning something. Smith will be an exception to that this year. He will have to talk him- self into the White House if he gets there at all. The country looks for him to say something and Smith is trying to comply. His record shows, fortunately for him, that he can open his mouth without putting his foot into it. Roosevelt's unnecessary remarks about a third term rose later to plague him. “God knows!” Presi- dent Taft said once when someone asked him the solution of a press- ing national problem, and it had a bad effect over the country. Wil- son’s assertion that there was such a thing as being “too proud to fight” hurt him considerably. Cool- idge has demonstrated his capacity as an expert politician by saying nothing important, dodging White House press conferences and confin- ing his speeches to platitudes. This year either candidate may make some break which could con- clusively lose him the election, hese Both vice presidential candidates already have talked too much, in the opinion of some members of their own parties. Much can be forgiven Charlis Cur- tis, of course, for he did his talking before the convention. It was Char- lie who attacked Herbert Hocver al- most savagely and publicly pro- claimed that Hoover’s nomination would put the Republican party on the defensive. That crack is bound to be hurled back at him before the campaign is over. It was made during those dear sweet days when Charlie, de- lirious from a deep bit of the apis bombus praesidens, believed he had an excellent chance of nomination. Although he didn’t know it, he was | OUR BOARDING HOUSE Pass ynever more than a vice presidential candidate. By the time the first Re- ublican reached Kansas City, his st friends and backers were ob- viously all working to land second Place for him. Charlie himself was honest and earnest about his higher ambitions right to the finish, though his friends must re worried when he let out that blast against Hoover. The other candidate who is be- lieved by some of his party breth- ren to have talked too much is Joe Robinson. Joe went to New York and unleashed a public statement to the effect that there was dirty work afoot in the south and that it seemed serious enough to lead the Democrats to open up a real southern headquar- ters to offset it. One now learns that the reaction in New York Democracy was very sour indeed. The Robinson proposal was rejected without ceremony and Joe was told, in effect, that he was all wet about the possibility that the party might lose any of the southern states, Some of the Tammany boys have been remarking since that if Joe had any such worries he should have some to tell the national committee about it in whispers instead of blat- ting it out in public. Bad psychol- ogy and all that, you know. Both national chairmen became voluble after their appointmcnts. There is reason to believe that some- one told Dr. Hubert Work that a little less noise from him would be more than plenty. John J. Raskob has merely fol- lowed the lead of Candidate Smith; it remains to be seen how his word to Massachusetts Democrats to the effect that liquor’s place is in the home will take with the country.

At 187th street the gay lights of Palisades park, across the river, flirt with the hundreds of youngsters who flaunt their inclination to be gay. Across the river the dips and bends of a roller-coaster are outlined in light, like some huge incandescent serpent, and the half-haze catches the electric glare and magnifies it into a blazing aura. Along the wall stand youth and maid, youth and maid, maid and maid, youth and youth, in a seemingly endless line, their eyes fastened now upon the transient gold of passing boats and upon the blaze of light against the sky. Just-below, the Palisades ferry comes and goes as the youngsters are captured by the park’s allure. Upon the grass lie tired men; men stretched prone, relaxing from the day’s burden. The grass has been cooled and moistened by the river's mist. Men brush their faces against the refreshing wet grass-blades. They smell at the ground, like ani- mals kept over-long in a barn. Men do not often smell the earth in Man- hattan. The ferry whistles toot. Tugs slip, slop and skid across the Fiver like so many illuminated water bugs. Hushed whispers come from the pathways; a tired man grunts and rolls over and over in the damp grass, and a snappy siren chortles: “Aw, don’t be a piker, Jim; le’s over to the Palisades!” Two youths begin to fight.

Hottentot or an Eskimo might be as intelligent and well educated as a white man, but he would never be accorded as high a position in white society. There is much truth in the saying that beauty is only skin deep. But the skin serves other purposes than camouflaging our muscles and hones. It is a protective covering of the ly, keeping out many Ree re- fe. in is also an organ of feel- ing, since most of our necves of touch end in or immediately under the skin. It regulates the tempera- ture of the body so that when we are too warm moisture is thrown off and, by the process of evaporstion, keeps the body cool. The skin also conserves the heat of the body by driving the blood away from the sur- face into the inner organs that must be kept warm to preserve life. The skin assists the lungs and kidneys to excrete water containing various toxic waste products, which are :o poisonous, that if they were re- tained, would produce death within a very short time. There are two main divisions to the skin, an outer tough coating called the epidermis, and the inner soft layer, rich in blood vessels and nerves, which is known as the derma or true skin. The epidermis or outer layer consists een of dead cells which are continually forced out from the inside. Since the only growing cells of the outer layer of the skin are located internally, near A the dermis, these divide and’ force the older cells outwardly where they in time scale off. When unusual pressure comes on the skin such as occurs on the soles of the feet or in the palms of the hands, the epidermal cells multiply with a great rapidity and produce an abnormal thickening. If the pressure occure on a limited area as some- times happens when a tight shoe is| h worn, a little mound of epidermal cells is built up which we call a corn or callous. This may be removed by serine Sele but will always re- cur unless the pressure that caused the growth is removed. A wart is a place where some ir- ritating acid from the blood has gathered which causes the epidermal cells to grow and multiply much more rapidly than is natural. Can- cer seems to be caused in much the same manner, and may occur either ores doen at oe in the nae ‘ive tiss..es which bind the together. . , The difference in color of the var- ious races, and even of individuals, WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1928 is caused by the pigment in the lower cells of the epiderm:- There is no difference in the color of the blood of different races.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Question: M. L. writes: “I am troubled most of the time bya drowsy, heavy feeling. It does not necessarily follow eating. times have ‘+ immediately upon aris. ing. Will you please tell me the cause and remedv?” Answer: You are probably suffer- ing from some kind oi toxic condi- tion. Try eating less and exercis- ing more. Take a good walk twice daily, finishing with a cold shower each time. Question: Mrs. G. H. asks: “Will you please tell me what foods, if any, contain iodine?” Answer: The following foods cen- tain the largest amount of iodine: sparagus, pineapple, cabvage, kid- ney bea mushrooms, _ carrots, halal , shrimp and other shell. ish. Question: M. K. H. writes: “My husband has been ill with heart trouble for nearly a year—leaky valve. The ‘heart specialist ordered complete rest, but he has insisted on taking two treatments a week from an osteopath, and his improvement as been very slow. Would not such treatment force the blood through the heart as rapidly as any other form of exercise?” Answer: Your husband will never be cured of heart trouble as long as he uses the “complete rest” treat- ment. Osteopathic treatments will surely be helpful to him, but he must get up and walk around several times daily in order to properly exercise the heart muscles. His diet should be very limited, and care must be used to preclude any possibility of flatulence, Exercises zhould be ta- ken while lying in bed, and the walk- ing increased each day in ot to develop the strength which is needed to overcome any heart derangement.
