(Official City, State and County Newspaper) i THE KINGDOM WITHIN US The world has been spinning rather rapidly the last few months. Herbert Hoover has predicted the ap- proaching abolition of poverty. Edward A. Filene has announced that we need never again have a business slump. The Westinghouse people are preparing to broadcast movies by radio. Henry Ford feels that the universal six-hour working day is not far off. Forty million people have listened to a presidential campaign speech, a German company is about to start trans- atlantic airship service and the American people are buying new automobiles at the rate of 200,000 or more @ month. All in all, it becomes obvious that we are moving pretty fast. The times are times in which, as the psalmist said, the young men are dreaming dreams and the old men are seeing visions. We are finding new hor- fzons opening before us, and it isn’t to be wondered at if we sometimes feel that the greatest era in human history is about to dawn. Yet it is quite possible that we are a bit too opti- mistic. “The Kingdom of Heaven is within you” is a very old piece of advice. It means, obviously, that externals are ‘unimportant; that the real starting place for all reform, all advances, all happiness, lies in our own hearts. We are, for all our crassness, stupidity and acquisitiveness, . essentially spiritual beings, and we must seek a 1 spiritual satisfaction. 2 It may be that the devices of this machine age will {bring us this internal release. Automobiles, labor-sav- ‘ ing devices, short working days, radios, abundant money a and all the rest may free us from the cares of this world and enable us to find, within ourselves, the path- ‘way to the Kingdom that was envisioned so long ago In Judea. But, on the other hand, they may not. They may make us more earthbound than ever. What earthly good is added leisure if we use it only to tace about more heatedly than before? If radio movies serve only to bring the five-minute kisses of Greta Garbo and John Gilbert into every living room, they will be a doubtful boon. Happiness and peace do not depend on gasoline and electricity, and there were men who managed to Jead rich lives before the invention of. the steam engine. * There are boundless possibilities in this new age, to be sure. It is within our power to free ourselves as our forefathers never dreamed. But we must adopt a new set of values—or, rather, we must get back to one of the oldest sets of values on earth. We must realize that the world, with all that is in it, is only a stage setting for a great internal conflict. We must find our King- dom within ourselves. THE FIRES WITHIN US Alexander Pope, in one of his neatly-worded lines, re- marked that “the proper study of mankind is man.” ‘Trying to trace the causes of human behavior is fas- . @inating. What makes people do as they do? Why is such and such a man a good citizen for a score of years, and then, abruptly, an embezzler or a thief? What are the mysterious forces that fill the human heart, silently, «so year by year, until suddenly they cause an unlooked- for explosion? . _ The papers printed an interesting picture the other day; a picture of a California Chinese, Loy Yoeng, who thad been a cook on a ranch, Loy had been well behaved “and quiet enough for years; but one day, without any @pparent reason, he went on a frightful rampage with B gun. Before he was captured and disarmed he had = 10 persons. * The picture showed a rather slight, composed man _ wf placid appearance. His face had an expression of quiet repose. Whatever his secret may be, it will never ‘be betrayed by anything anyone can see in his eyes. (4. Dumb, uncomprehending and puzzled, this stolid Chinese | eook will never explain or protest. And we will never ’ mow just what made him fly into such a strange, in- ible fury. It is easy enough to make conjectures. A Chinese on a California ranch can hardly have a very good of it. Beneath his surface placidity he may suffer it woes and nourish grandiose schemes of revenge. ‘we cannot find out. In due time Loy Yoeng will be d and forgotten; but before that happens we d like to know what ailed him. His is an extreme case. Yet, basically, it is like all We never know what moves our fellow citi- Locked in every man’s breast there are struggles, amaze us if we could see them. They ferment to- and produce unlooked-for reactions; a Judd Gray &@ woman murder her husband, a Jesse Smith kills if when at the height of worldly success—and all can do is ask “Why?” There are murky depths in human nature. Strange flagratio and explosions, We can seldom understand: ~; just why people do the foolish, criminal, bizarre things do.

Everywhere you turn, the eye glimpses beauty accessories. Flappers, mothers and sofa shieks keep the counters filled, the clerks will tell you, Legend tells us that Venus had her dressing table stocked with beauty amplifiers. She had a powder whose ingredients have long been forgotten. She had essential oils for keeping the skin smooth. She had a soap. Poor Venus! What beautyfgyould have been hers had she the numberless array PB arspavatiots to choose from that her modern sister has. Venus’ needs were few and simple. Today her sister’s are countless, She grows old trying to select the right rouge or lipstick. She is in a continuous state of facial expcrimentation. Beholding the results we realize that Venus lived in| . the age of beauty. Her sister lives in the age of the chase of beauty. Which age was most beautiful? A BIT OF COMMON SENSE William J. Bogan, Chicago’s superintendent of schools, seems to be a man of considerable common sense. The stockingless fad, so popular among girls these days, has gone over big with Chicago’s younger gener- ation, and it occurred to someone to wonder if the school authorities would allow girls to go to school minus their hose. So the question was put to Mr. Bogan. “If mothers want their girls to go stockingless, it’s none of my business and none of the teacher’s,” he re- plied. His action, somehow, is extremely refreshing, consid- ering some of the school authorities who have felt them- selves called on to regulate the pupils’ garb in all its details. THE INGENIOUS GERMAN A bulletin from the National Safety Council remarks that women are often injured while alighting from street cars and buses because many of them hold on with the right hand, and thus dismount facing the Tear. A street car company in Germany, however, with true Teutonic igenuity, has discovered a means of con- verting them. A mirror is placed in the forward side of the car exit. Thus, when a girl or matron prepares to get off, she discovers it and, invariably, pauses for a moment to view herself in it. And this brings her into the proper position to step off the car—holding on with her left hand, and facing the front! Truly, these Germans are clever people. Evolution isn’t finished, and centuries from now elec- tric chairs may be valuable only as period furniture. | Editorial Comment | BEAT MARSHALL TO GOLD (Los Angeles Times) A University of California publication quoting T. A. Rickard, mining engineer, charges one of the Golden State’s most cherished monuments with historical in- accuracy. The bronze statue of James Marshall at Colma forms the world that on that site the renowned c: penter made his famous discovery of gold January, 1848. Rickard declares the “discovery” was on January 24, 1848, that it was a flake of gold and not a nugget, and that it really wasn’t a discovery, as the presence of gold in California was known for years before Marshall came upon the scene, é ¥ Robert Jameson, in a book published at Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1816, told of the deposits, Rickard says. The Mexican congress‘ discussed prevalence of the precious metal in California in 1844, and productive placer mining was then under way. Likewise, he says, in March, 1846, the United States consul at Monterey wrote to James Buchanan, then secretary of state, and sptormedl him of gold fields in various parts of Cali- fornia, HONOR YOUR EDITORS (Williams County Farmers Press) We are glad to welcome to our exchange table the Renville County Farmer, a ten-year-old newspaper that never wag heard of until it was lately purchased by that very able veteran pen-pusher, Thomas H. Moodie. Mr. Moodie for some years made the Richland County Farmer at Wahpeton the leading weekly in North Dakota, not only in the presentation of progreasiye and liberal editorial opinions, but in the dissemination of news. Recently when Mr. Moodie flew to Williston from Bismarck, we chided him for his declared inten. tion to buy and edit the Mohall Daper. We did not favor the idea of a man of his cya ucking himself away in such an obscure corner. flying editor replied that he favored living in a country town for social reasons—for its intimate qualities of brotherhood—and he also felt that he could do the state more good from such a vantage point. ts Late events have proved Mr. Moodie to be wise in his choice and right in his deductions, No less a writer than the world-famed Sherwood Anderson has lately taken the same course and is now editing a small weekly in one of the New England states. Besides, we have Ed. Howe and William Allen White, who have become nationally famous as country editors. ‘¢ glad that Mr. Moodie will continue to give his services to the people of North Dakota; and we are also glad to hear rumors to the effect that John Andrews may return to the state as editor of Mr. Langer’s new daily, to be established this fall. The progressives in North Dakota have in the past shown an attitude of indifference and ingratitude to- ward those editors who stood up and manfully fought their fight when the going was the hard Perhaps if the people had treated their ablest and most fearless editors better, the progressive movement in this state would not now be in a state of decline. The editors who possess the “social slant” are not kind who are able to “stand up for themselves.” They can save others—themselves they cannot save. CANCELING CITIZENSHIP (Duluth Herald) According to law and common honesty, aliens who seek and get certificates of naturalization making them citizens of this country must tell the truth when testify- ing for their admission, and must be sincere in pledging loyalty to this country and in sneering off earlier alleg- fances. Being admitted to citizenship is no longer a form, a cloak. bas Festetics de Tolna, who was an Austrian has found this out. De Tolna went through the form of naturalization on April 6, 1906. He was given full papers granting him American citizenship. He probably thought that was f the matter.

There is no prohibition in Nica- Tagua, but some of the distillations are pretty awful. Officers have un- dertaken to close up many saloons where bad liquor was likely to be sold to marines and have encouraged private clubs where enlisted men might drink beer to their hearts’ con- tent. eee No marriages with lovely Nica- raguan senoritas are reported. The Marine Corps frowns darkly on the idea of an enlisted man marrying on his $21 a month. Lieut. Bernard Dubel was recently married, but the bride was an American girl working with the Nicaraguan railroad. Presi- dent Diaz gave her in marriage. The Nicaraguan people, one hears, have been increasingly hospitable to the leathernecks. The force in China has been halved. There were 3000 marines there. Now we have about 700 at the international settlement -in Shanghai and 800 at Tientsin. They are all sitting tight and waiting for something to happen... Insofar as the marines are concerned, nothing has happened for some time. They drill and practice markmanship. Gen. Smedley Butler, commander of the Chinese force, is at Tientsin. The marines in Haiti have per- haps the softest assignment. They are still there, it is explained, on account of a 10-year agreement which provides for American super- vision of customs and finances, a gendarmerie commanded and in- structed by marine officers and guar- antees of sovereignty with “free and fair” elections. Haiti appears to be running itself, the marines say, and there is no thought of revolution there.

With these accomplishments at his disposal, man began to assume a new place in nature. He was no longer buffeted about by its whims, but actually be- came in some degree its master. We can trace all of the wonderful complexities of our modern civiliza- tion to the simple tiller of the soil and the wandering herder of cattle. Before the development of agricul- ture, it is apparent that our ances- tors lived very much as the apes do today, subsisting mainly on foods of a vegetable nature, such as frui nuts, herbs, vegetables and root Man was not naturally equipped as a hunting animal, and the animal foods which he obtained must have been in the form of birds’ and rep- tiles’ eggs, shellfish, snakes, snails, fa worms, insects and caterpil- Occasionally he may have been able to capture birds, fish, and some of the larger animals. The fruits and vegetables of these early times had not yet reached their present stage of lusciousness. They were woefully lacking in nutritive qualities. The North American In- dians, at the time of the discovery of the new world, ate many edible wild roots, such as some plants of the lily family, wild parsnips, grass roots, clover, water plants, cannas, bulbs of various sorts, and eel grass. Before the discovery of fire these had to be eaten raw, although they may have been prepared in various ways by pounding and drying. Al- though many edible roots, such as the turnip, Jerusalem’ artichoke and field potato were used, there is no evidence that the Indians practiced the cultivation of these. The pictures that the ts have painted of the golden age in the past, flowing with milk and honey, and grape juice, requiring little or no ef- fort to gather, has been drawn from their imagination because it is likely that the food of primitive man would be considered scarcely worth gather- ing, since the roots were tough and most of the fruit acrid and tasteless. Man fortunately belongs to the type of animal known as the omniv- orous which enables him to eat and digest a very large variety of foods. This fact has enabled him to sur- vive through many adverse circum- stances where animals that could subsist on only one class of food would have starved. . We hear. much of man’s “natural” diet, but this term is wrong, since the digestive organs may become adapted to new foods during the course of generations and, after this change, the new food would become the most suitable. veloped this tendency, and the Scotchman, who swears by his oat- Morris.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Question: J.L. asks: “Cana riper son be anemic and have high ood pressure at the same time?” ‘Answer: It is oe to have anemia and high blood wakes at the same time, as high blood pres- sure is caused either by sion of the arteries, or due to of the arterial walls. Anemia is a condition where there is a lack of red blood cells and Remoglobin. Question: W. H. J, asks: “What is a pignolia?” Answer: A pignolia is the same as the lea nut, a seed of the pine tree which is frequently used in con- fectionery and eaten raw, and salted as are other nuts. Most of them are imported from Italy, Spain and France, but some excellent varieties are raised in Mexico and the western states. They are an ex- cellent food, rich in protein and fats and may be used as the principal part: of a protein meal. Question: R. S. asks: “Will you Upped explain what is meant by an internal bath? One woman I know is drinking a quart of warm water night and morning, and another is us- ing two quarts of warm water as an enema night and morning. Which is correct? Also, is a warm tub-bath all right when one hasn’t a shower?” Answer: When the term “internal bath” is used it usually refers to a washing of the colon by what is oth- erwise known as an enema. It is true that one can wash out the stomach by drinking large quantities of wa- ter, but this has a very different ef- fect upon the intestines, as the wa- ter is absorbed mostly in the stom- ach. You can arrange a very satis- factory shower by securing one of the shower attachments h con- nects with your bathtub faucet. A shower can then be taken whi ting or squatting in the tub. It is tter to use cool or cold water, as the warm water is always enervat- ing. | Our Yesterdays YEARS AGO The cl of 1917 of Bismarck high school entertained at an inform- al class reunion at Apple Creek hon- oring Ensign Paul Register, who was home from Annapolis on a furlough.
