CHICAGO SEW YORK BOSTON Around the Corner Just around the corner death lurks for the unwary, ‘and this is particularly true of children. ‘The times when mothers save their children from in- jury or possible death are legion but the public rarely hears about them. Only “Dad” hears the story when he gets home from work and finds himself faced with the task of soothing “mother's” nerves and giving his off- spring a little paternal admonition. But how easily and quickly death may come occasion- ally is given vivid illustration. One such occurred in Bismarck Thursday when three children were trapped by the cave-in of a ditch in the northwest part of the city. am minute they were laughing and carefree, enjoy- ing a real youthful adventure. The next they were face to face with death. Only the frightened story of a three- year-old boy to his grandmother saved them, And even at that rescue came none too soon. With life, as with liberty, eternal vigilance is necessary and the innocent eyes of a child too often fail to see the danger which lurks in ordinary things. ‘The placid pond, filled with lily pads and bordered by trees, may be one of nature's beauties, and yet it can be an instrument of swift and sudden tragedy also. A pail of water is just a pail of water until a child falls head-first into it. Then it becomes as deadly as any constrictor snake which might grasp the child in its coils. The vital statistics records of the state are filled with instances in which help did not come in time. And each of those instances is marked by @ tiny tombstone on some quiet hillside where a heart-torn mother occasion- ally goes to be once again with her little one. ‘And yet,-these are hazards which every child must face. Every mature man looks back upon the adventurous deeds of his youth with just a bit of pride. He remem- bers when he walked across the long railrdad trestle, with fear in his heart that a train might, at any minute, come around the distant curve and trap him there. He remembers how he climbed to the tops of the highest trees and did a hundred and one other things which he knew were unsafe but which were made worth while by that fact alone. And such men, looking back upon the days of their own youth, worry a little about their sons. They can- not expect their sons to do, as boys, much less than they _did as boys. The history of their own youth tells them that one of the greatest proofs of God's providence is the fact that as many male children grow to manhood as do. The Bankers’ View Few things are quite as interéstfhg just now as an answer to the question of when “good times” will return to the United States. Every man who works for a living, together with those whose prosperity depends on the purchasing power of the ‘wage earner or of the farmer, is interested in the answer. ‘There can be no definite and sure answer, of course. Good times, like bad times, do not come overnight. Fi- nancial headaches, like other headaches, do not dis- appear in an instant, But the views of various classes of persons are inter- esting and because of the direct relationship between finance, commerce and industry, the judgment of bank- ers is worth considering. Dr. Julius Klein, assistant secretary of the department of commerce, thought so and sent out a questionnaire to get their views. Two out of three who answered put the beginning of “good times” at October 1. The other third were more cautious. Their estimate was January 1. The bankers who answered were not talking for pub- lication or making a studied effort to stimulate public confidence. They were reporting to a branch of the government and it is to be presumed they were giving their honest opinions. ‘There are a number of factors which indicate that the mass opinion of the bankers may be pretty near correct. One is the stock market. It led the way down and if {ts leadership means anything, business conditions are about to take a turn for the better. The “bears” haven't been having much luck recently and dispatches from ‘Wall Street note a general feeling that things will be better after Labor Day. Another, and perhaps a better, index is the history of financial depressions in this country. Statistics show that the United States has had 11 more or less drastic recessions during the last 40 years, or approximately one every presidential administration. ‘The average time requited for business leadership to gather itself together and start things forward égain has been about 13 months. Department of commerce figures, as disclosed by Dr. Klein, place the minimum at eight after a minor slump in 1927 and the maximum at 25 months after the depression of 1912. In good times or bad there are always a large number of problems to be worked out and in their solution the financiers of the country play a major part. It is a hopeful sign when the bankers view business prdspects from an optimistic angle. . Courtesy of the Road A writer in the current issue of The Nation calls at- tention to a by-product of the automobile industry which ordinarily goes unmentioned— the utter ruination of tempers and manners which the automobile seems to have brought to millions of good citizens. It is a point worth considering. There seems to be something inherent in the mere act of driving an automobile that makes a man feel that he is exempt from all, or nearly all, of the common require- ments of courtesy and human decency. It applies to nearly all of us, and in the last few years it has pro- duced a set of road manners which would seem to justify the complaint that we are a nation of barbarians. ‘Yet we are not, ordinarily, nearly as bad as we seem to are THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 29, 1930 Yessir! Perhaps This Craze for Miniature Golf’ll Have Benefits After All! fairly well-disposed people. We have a fair amount of courtesy, we are not over-forward, we are quite willing to give the other fellow a break and to refrain from pushing ourselves to the front too blatantly. Put one of us behind the wheel of an automobile, how- ever, and what happens? Dr. Jekyll vanishes and Mr. Hyde comes tearing tothe front, grinding his teeth, clenching his. fists and muttering swear words. The mildest of men is transformed into a ruthless autocrat, demanding that all other motorists on the highway give way before him. Really, it is actually amazing the way our dispositions change for the worse. We will put on an extra burst of speed to keep the other fellow from crossing ahead of us. ‘With an hour in which to make a 15-minute drive we will jockey for 10-second advantages as if the fate of the na- tion hung on our speed. If some luckless soul stails his engine, runs out of gas or encounters a mechanical defect. that stops him in his tracks, do we offer to help him, or at least bestow our sympathy on him? Not mudh—we yell at him, and toot our horns, and mutter in our beards as if he were the most fiendish criminal of the ages. To list all the ways in which we show our boorishness on the highways would take all day. You can doubtless make up your own list—and if you do it carefully and honestly, the chances are you'll be surprised at your own lack of manners. All of us display a surliness and a selfishness as drivers that we would never dream of displaying in any other field. This is more than just a matter for melancholy regret. Our automobiles are killing more than 30,000 people a year, and a great many of these 30,000 would still be alive if it were not for this natiorial habit of selfishness on the highway. In any safety campaign ,the restoration of simple, old-fashioned courtesy must be the first big step. Until we regain our manners our death toll will continue to be a national scandal. Former Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania in a recent issue of a popular weekly, tries to place Coolidge in his proper historical niche. He decides finally that it cannot be done at this writing but suggests that Mr. Coolidge will qualify better as the Palmerston of American politics than the Pitt. There have been worse comparisons. Coolidge certainly has more of the attributes of a Palm- erston than of a Pitt, “It would do no harm,” said Ruth Bryan Owen, “if Uncle Sam had a wife.” Chances are, however, that Secretary Mellon would prefer a surplus in the treasury. | . Editorial Comment The New Game Commission (Valley City Times-Record) Burnie Maurek, the new game commissioner of the state, has recently handed out a bunch of appointments, and in them we notice that Harvey and Fessenden get @ good appointment. Evidently our one man game com- missioner can only see one part of the state. Barnes county, which has been responsible more than once for helping to pull the I. V. A. faction out of the hole, is not regarded by Mr. Maurek or the state administration as being a point that is necessary for the success of the independent wing of the Republican party. Maybe that is so, but there are other elections coming and it is possible that old Barnes county may be needed to help put over the I. V. A. program, but that does not mean that it will get it. There is still a fight to be made for the state legislature and there is strong talk of running independent candidates for the house in the fifteenth dis- trict and for senator in the thirty-eighth district, with @ good chance of winning in either case. A change of a couple of house or senate members may throw the con- trol of the legislature into the hands of the league wing of the party and if the present administration feels that Barnes county is not necessary to win out we are not so sure that we care a continental. : ‘The appointment of one of the best men in Barnes county—and the state for that matter—was asked of the governor through the game commission—the measly ap- pointment of a deputy game warden. We got it in the neck. This paper has been standing by the independ- ents for marly years from a matter of principle and when the publisher joined with some other leaders in asking the appointment of a real good man for a small Political job—he asked nothing personal—did not want | anything—we got a stone instead of half a loaf of bread. Well, that is all right, but we just want to throw out the suggestion that there are more elections coming and maybe the independent party may consider this paper of | enough importance to be friendly instead of otherwise. A Socialist on Agriculture ‘(8t. Paul Dispatch) Norman Thomas, Socialist and candidate for congress from Brooklyn, takes exception to a recent editorial in the Pioneer Press suggesting that his party has been traditionally indifferent to agriculture while aspiring to the championship of the interests of all producers. His letter, which appears on this page, makes the point that as a Socialist he regards the interests of the farmers sod ct city labor, for which he chiefly speaks, as iden- tical. The failure of Socialism to pay much attention to the farm problem he does not deny, but lays the biame on capitalism, or the prevailing system of private property ownership. “Certain reasons,” says Mr. Thomas, have worked to make the rural problem “‘a peculiarly baffling one on which to submit an immediate program.” ‘The certain reasons to which Mr. Thomas refers are not made very plain: The farmer is himself a land- lord. He is, usually in a small way, a capitalist. Al- though tenantry has been slowly increasing in America, some 60 per cent of the country’s more than six million farms are still operated by their owners. The new census may ‘disclose some reduction in this proportion, but the fact still remains that the baffling problem to which the Socialists confess to have no immediate answer remains one predominantly of the individual landowning pro- prietor. With such prejudices it is natural that a Socialist should find the farm problem too baffling for an im- mediate program. The farmer only asks a fair align- ment between-the pri wf the things he sells and that of the things he buys, including labor. What he gets in reply is adamantine opposition to better prices, plus some Socialist theories calculated to meet the increas- ing tenantry of agriculture, not by sparing the insti- tution of the individual land-owning farmer, on which America’s social and political’ democracy has historically rested, but by making all farmers tenants of the govern- ment. Haven’t They Something Coming? (Dunn Couz*y Jour=>1) ‘This writer recently read an editorial decrying the fact that congress recently passed 4 bill that will allow in- creases to veterans of the war with Spain, the Philippine rebellion and the Boxer outbreak, stating that we are again to have “another expensive outlay of money for pensions that will exceed even that of the Civil war.” ‘That is just too bad, isn’t it? We'll say it is. It is too bad in the first place that the writer could not have been with us when we had the job of chasing the Span- iards out of the Philippines, and the one that followed the cleaning up the unholy mess that was created by our dearly beloved Aguinaldo, and lesser Filipino generals. If that writer had been with us one day in the jungles and had stumbled on the spread-eagled form of one of hts comrades \over a white ant hill and had viewed the whitening bones that had been stripped clean by those vermin; or if he had seen a man fall into the deadfall filled with poisoned bamboo spears so arranged that a man could not escape being impaled thereon; or if he had seen a comrade die from the whiplash bite of a poisonous viper; or had he been present when white heads were found in the village of the headhunters where they were being preserved and shrunken by smoke; or had he been a victim of the dread Asiatic cholera that leaves a man Gf he survives, which is unusual) a cripple for life; or if he had fought off an ambuscade of fanatical natives who wielded the dreaded bolo and kriss; or if he had undergone from fourteen month; to two years of active insular service in any shape or form, it might be that the editorial would never have been written. Now, then, brother, don’t you think these men who have undergone these things, and are perhaps today un- able to live life without daily pain because of the service rendered their country and a down-trodden race of people, are entitled to assisted sustenance at the hands ef the rest of us? Shame on you! ‘And you call yourself an American! BATTLE OF BULL RUN On August 29, 1862, the Confederate forces under General Robert E.

Rorimer had said, as they left the Brown Derby: “Tell me now about yourself. I’ve been very good, I think, to wait all through din- per.” “What did Ziggy Young tell you. about me?” she asked. “He said you had come out here to work in pictures. . . . You've had stage experience, haven't you?”. “Did Ziggy Young tell you that?” Rorimer said no. “It’s in your voice; Ziggy didn’t have to tell me.” But her voice, he told him- self, was not all. There was a definite poise about her, an assured ease of movement; and certain lit- tle mannerisms, like her trick of listening and the eloquent use of her hands, bespoke her training, She laughed. “You're very ob- servant, aren’t you?” - “Perhaps.” They turned into the parking lot beside the restaurant and Rorimer, giving the “attendant his ticket, asked her if she would like a little ride before dancing. “Then I can hear. your life story without the competition of George Olsen’s band.” It was decidedly pleasant, he thought, with Anne Winter beside him in the car and Anne Winter's low, vibrant voice his ear, é They swung east on Sunset Boulevard. The cool breeze that had come with the evening sang against the windshield and rushed Past them into the night. Dan pointed toward the sky. “Hollywood stars,” he said with a smile, She nodded thoughtfully, her food changing. “They are far away, aren't they?. . . I've worked just one day since I’ve been here."

He says that about the best advice he could offer a person looking for extra work and an eventual career in pic tures is to work a year or two in stock and then come out to Holly- wood with enough money to pay living expenses for a year or two more, “They'll tell you the same thing,” he added, “at Central Casting Bu- reau. Have you been there?” “1 am registered there,” she told bim. - “Well, that’s something in your favor—they’re not registering everybody that’s looking for extra work.” “They told me there that I should have enough money to last me, without work of any sort, for at least one year and preferably three.” \ a‘ Rorimer nodded. “I know. If you're just looking for a job, it sounds pretty tough; but if you're looking for a career it's different. You sort of expect to have to make sacrifices, I suppose.” “You know something about that. yourself, don’t you?” Anne Winter said, smiling. Rorimer looked puzzled. “Don’t you remember the time you gave up eating lunch?” she asked. . He chuckled. “Oh, yes, I did lay something on the altar of Art, didn’t I?” . . . Gone far enough?” “Just as you say. I do feel like dancing, though.” Rorimer swung the car to the left at the next street, “All right, we'll go back on Hollywood Boule vard. Meanwhile- how about the story of your life? The life and loves,” be added, “of Anne Winter.” Anne shook her head. “Life only,” she raid positively; “and that’s so uneventful I'll have finished before we reach the Boulevard.” He delferately slowed down. Anne Winter laughed joyously. “Born in Tulsa,” she said, mim- icking the manner of his own re cital, “raised in Tulsa, went to school in Tulsa... .” There had been, she added, a course in a dramatic school. “And then the stock companies. . + - I did well enough to raise my hopes, and to persuade my father against bis better judgment to let me come to Hollywood to see if I was good enougb for pictures.” eee SRE went on to say, with a swift rush of enthusiasm, that ber father was “perfectly adorable” and -|that sbe was crazy about him. “Mother’s a dear, too—only, Father seems to understand me bet- ter. He's more tolerant of my whims and enthusiasms.” Rorimer nodded and made a left turn, reminding her as the car swung under brighter light that Hollywood Boulevard had been reached and she had not yet fin- ished. Well, it was about finished, Anne Winter said. About all that remained to be told was that she was on probation for one year. “At the end of that time my parents are coming out to see me, and if I'm making real “rogress I'm to be al- lowed to stay.

That's fair, isn’t it?” It certainly was, Dan agreed, and he found it a pleasant thought that her stay in Hollywood was to be guaranteed ‘for a minimum of a year, Her father, she informed him, was @ lawyer. “He used to be a judge, but he went back to private Practice some years ago.” “His decision,” Rorimer said solemnly, “does him credit as a jurist. Solomon couldn’t have done better.” He said, “You're bound to go a long way with a father like that behind you.” “You're nice to ray that... . Well, that’s the end of my story.” Rorimer said, smiling at her, "m sure it’s just the beginnin; “You're so kind. I’m sure what you are really thinking is that I'm @ movie-mad, rattlebrained girl and that I’ve no busines out here. + + + What else did Ziggy Young say about me in his letter?” Dan, remembering that letter and the things he had said to Paul Col- lier, laughed. “Ziggy’s a rotten re Porter,” he said. “He told me you were freckle-faced and stubborn.” “W@il, I can be stubborn—and 1 used to have freckles. That's not bad, coming from Ziggy.” “He's not exactly what you'd call complimentary,” Rorimer admitted. “He said you were bull-headed.” “He did! Wait till I lay my eyes on him again.” “There's danger in them eyes,” said Dan. “Do you know what Ziggy Young's first name is?” Anne Win- ter asked, ignoring bis remark. “He never would admit that he had any besides Ziggy.” “Well, it’s Clement. Whenever he makes me mad I tell on him.” “You must be perfectly furious,” said Dan. “But he's a dear,” said Anne, “and it was awfully nice of him to ask you to look me up.” “I thought of that a long time ago.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Lemon Rinse Question: Mrs. J. asks: “fs it harmful to use a lemon rinse on & child’s hair? His hair is very light brown and I would like to kee;: it 0.” Answer: Wash the child’s hair with distilled water and then use just a few drops of lemon juice in the rinsing water. This counteracts any alkaline deposits on the hair and tends to keep it its natural color. Urticaria i Question: Mrs. J. C. B. asks: “What is the cause of an itch that comes in a red blotch on my eyelids and on the front of my neck? Havd had this frequently within the last three months. Worse in the morn- ings, as my eyelids are then terribly swollen. I consulted a doctor, but he did not tell me the cause, so I am at @ loss to know what to do. A urinal- ysis showed normal, with the excep- tion of the ‘specific gravity’ being low. What does this mean?” Answer: You are probably suffer- ing from a form of urticaria and are not eliminating enough poisons from your body. The urinalysis shows this, Leave starches and sugars out of your diet and increase intestinal elimina- tion through taking one or two ene- mas daily. ia Throbbing in Head Question: A.M. L. writes: “When walking hurriedly to catch the next car I have a violent throbbing in the -back of my head. Does this mean that some sweet day a blood vessel will rupture, and out I go? Answer: You may be suffering from high blood pressure, and this can only be ascertained through an examination by a physician. The ache in the back of your head may | be cause by prolapsed organs which are still farther crowded into the pel- vis when you are running.
