(Official City, State and County Newspaper) THE COIN FOR OLD AGE Benjamin Franklin, obviously, would not have liked Belle Livingstone at all. ret Belle Livingstone, it should be explained, is mo or less the queen of New York’s Bohemia—which means that she is the feminine leader of the forces who like to flit about the joy-haunts of Broadway and adjacent streets. ering on to success by making the most of their blunders, that it could have been averted by a little thought. The indolent find actions easier than thought and much of humanity is indolent. Thinking can be made a habit just as most bodily movements are from force of habit. Cultivate the habit of thinking before acting and that bugaboo, the mis- take-habit, will decamp for more salubrious foraging. THE VALUE OF BICYCLING A New England man recently returned to his home after a 1,200-mile bicycle trip through New England and Quebec. Although the man is 50, he made the long trip without difficulty, and came home to report that he had a fine time and improved his health. Bicycling was once a craze. Now it has become a minor utility. Few people consider bicycle trips through the country any more. Wheels seem to .be used only by children and messenger boys. That is a pity. There is nothing that is much better for the’ body than bicycling, in. moderation. It is a fine sport as well. We would be a good deal better off if the bicycle could return to some of its old-time popularity. A FORWARD MOVE Americans should have nothing but support and commendation for Secretary Kellogg’s action in negotiating a new tariff treaty with the Chinese Nationalists. " . Press dispatches intimate that other powers, notably Britain and Japan, may look with cool eyes on this move. But, after all, it was a move demanded by simple justice. China has suffered from the inequal treaties long enough. We can be proud that America has taken the lead in moving to make amends. If other powers, less willing to give up special privil- eges obtained by force, protest against the American Now in an interview the other day Belle Livingstone went directly counter to old Ben’s most cherished maxims. She announced that no one should save money. “Spend your money while you have it,” she re- marked airily. “Spend it while you have it, even if you'll need it later. Take it and have a good time. You never can forget the memory of a good time.” There will always be Benjamin Franklins in the world, and there will always be Belle Livingstones. ‘And the two classes will never understand one another. Their philosophies are diametrically opposed. They are the ants and the grasshoppers of this world, and they never will be able to see with each other's eyes. Indeed, most of us have these two divergent per- sonalities within us. When an occasional windfall in the shape of an unexcepted check arrives, we are torn between two desires. Shall we put it in the bank against further needs, or shall we take the wife and go downtown for a large evening? Save it or spend it? Have a good time now or exercise prudence and foresight? It is always a hard question. The Belle Livingstones often come tq grief. They often reach a point where it is a question how bills are to be paid, and sometimes they don’t even know where the next meal is to come from. But, if you have the right temperament, that sort of thing isn’t the worst thing that can happen to you. As Belle Living- stone says, “you never can forget the memory of a good time’? And while memories cannot be classed ; coin of the realm, they are, nevertheless, a rare , valuable kind of currency. They buy other things meat; serenity, contentment, happiness, some- e tenu to get just a trifle too serious. In our vness to lay away money for a secure old age we ot that old age needs other things beside cash in the bank. It needs, most of all, memories; memories action, they should be given to understand that this nation is solidly behind the move, without reservations. | Editorial Comment | e YEA, A DANIEL! | To the Rescue The haunting regret in every mistake is the thought THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE __” Sie ast ‘ay Jo Karlie Stammering and Stuttering sures me that a high percentage of Many correspondents have written pr can » ressived in a work, to me asking the cause and cure of] A "YON° Pi teig of stammering stammering and stuttering.

Pausing at St. Paul on his leisurely return from a current holiday, our Mayor’s great heart went out to the farmers of America. From his train window he had seen farms; they had been pointed out to him. The corn had been identified, and its height analyzed; other crops had been made familiar to “Broadway’s Am- bassador to Everywhere,” and by the time St. Paul was reached and skilled cartographers had shown the Mayor just where he was, the farm problem had taken domina- tion of his mind. “Does New York want farm relief?” the reporter asked him. A less alert man than our Mayor might have been trapped there. But unhesitatingly the sen- sational reply came: “It does.” One can visualize the farm faculty of the train standing by and hoping that Mr. Walker at this point would reveal the agricultural lore he had learned fifty miles back as his car thundered through Anoka. Nor did he fail them. Instantly he entered upon an analysis of the farm problem that for peaceful penetration exceeds anything the Germans ever did in South America. He said that New York un- derstands its dependence on the farmers. As for re- lief, “any kind of relief they want; they are more familiar with their own needs than we of the city; we want to give them what they need.” St. Paul reporters are fearless men, used to shock, surprise and alarm, but when these remarkable thoughts came from the lips of the solemn Mayor they broke their pencil points in frantic haste to preserve them in all their wisdom. Mechanicians leaped to their posts in order to diffuse over countless radios and wires this beam of economic thought. In distant cities men were soon to gow with pride that New York had produced another John Stewart Mill, and on the broad farms of the land unequalized agrarians were to hail through bearded lips the name of Walker. of laughter and song, of days and nights of carefree, youthful happiness. Those are the things that bolster one up when the shadows begin to lengthen. We don’t need to go the whole way with Belle Liv- ingstone. But we might listen to what she has to say. There are worse crimes than improvidence. MAKING STATUES LIVE In Honolulu there is a man named Manuel who is known to everyone as “the statue worshiper.’ Daily Manuel appears before the statue of Kamehameha, Hawaii's king of long ago, and does obeisance. He is awaiting the day when the statue of the great leader will step down from its pedestal and move across the street into the palace. On that day Manuel is going to be ready to serve. It is rather a weary business, waiting for a statue to come to life. Manuel has our sympathy. Indeed, we in America ought to feel some kinship with him. In our own way, we, too, are waiting for a statue to move. A good many years ago a group of patriots in the American colonies threw off the dominion of the British king and formed a new government. The nation they THE MEANING OF ‘COMMUNITY’ (Minneapolis Journal) They know the full meaning of community effort, in the small towns of the Northwest, the places where everybody knows everybody else. _ Take New England, N. D., for instance, The Het- tinger County Herald supplies the picture. There the whole town got out and built a dam across the Can- nonball river, providing a wning pool to be stocked by the State Fish Commission. Thirty men at a time worked in the water, placing the dam and its embank- ments. Farmers built a butte of rocks, piling two hundred loads on the river banks. Dray teams were donated to haul lumber. Boy Scouts helped with the rocks. Roadmaster Peter Burns, of the Milwaukee Railroad, built a miniature railroad to carry material over the cribs. A minister, a lumber dealer, a druggist, among others, waded the stream, wielded Sapte spikes, hustled lumber. Women of New England sup- plied lunches, and joined the men in promoting a “big dam dance” to help pay for the material. And then somebody proposed @ bathing beach, and further effort was applied. The railroad company came across with three carloads-of gravel. The State promised to supply trees for shade. A citizen donatéd an acre of adjacent land and more was arranged for. And now the neighbors—and they are ee in the best sense of the word—are contemplating proudly established was, so to speak, a monument or statue ‘of the ideal of democracy. And ever since then Americans have been trying to make it live; to make it, not only a magnificent, beautiful emblem, but a living, breathing fact. It hasn’t been an easy task. To begin’with, other na- tions didr’t like this idea. This American statue was too much vf a beacon to their own people. So they put all the obstacles they could think of in the way. But these obstacles failed of their purpose. Then there were hindrances at home; mass ignorance, sectionalism, local jealousies, narrow-gauge politicians, financial oligarchies. All of these things, singly and §dintly, kept the great figure of Democracy from spring- ing into full life. It has been a long wait and a hard battle. Now and then the statue has flamed into glorious activity, under the prodding of a Jackson or a Lincoln or a Roosevelt. ‘And now und then, unfortunately, it has lapsed into placid immob unmoved by corruption in high places, frozen by the apathy and indifference of voters. Yet we keep our faith that some day, somehow, we will make it live. For the statue is, when you stop to think about it, rather fine. A great many young men have died for it. A great many earnest men and women have spent their lives to make it go. Innumerable hopes and aspirations are wrapped up in it. At times it has loomed high as a symbol for oppressed and discouraged people all over the world. So we are waiting and hoping. Like Manuel, when the living, breathing emblem of democracy into « newer, finer day.
