(Official City State and County Newspaper) Foreigu Representatives SMALL SPENCER & LEVINGS eae Vids Formerly G Logan a A CHICAGO “New YORK BOSTON A Welcome Addition Dedication of the Jewish Temple here Sunday brought forcibly home to Bismarck residents the value of this lat- est addition to its cultural and moral forces. ‘The local temple is the only one in the southern half of the state west of Fargo and serves a wide area. Its construction makes Bismarck the religious center of Jewry in Western North Dakota and that fact should be felt in the future development of the city. For the Jews are essentially builders. As a race their history is the longest known, and from the Jews, ancient and modern, present day civilization has received much for which to be thankful. Christians admire the Jew for his steadfastness to his religious principles in times of stress as well as in good times.’ No other nation has suffered the persecution which has been the lot of the Jew. No other race has so well maintained its own standards and its own civili- zation in the face of the obstacles which have met the Jew almost at every turn in his road toward a better development. No one recognizes better than the Jew the greatness of America and the justice of its attitude toward all peoples on the globe. They have not been favored more than other people in this country, where equal oppor- tunity is open to all, but it may not be too much to say that they are the most grateful because of the change from the conditions under which they, or their fore- fathers, labored in “the old country.” And their regard for America and its institutions has been evidenced by service to the nation, Jewish blood has been shed in the defense of these United States. Jewish brains, Jewish enterprise and Jewish industry have gone into its upbuilding. Jewish genius has contributed much to the arts and sciences and Jewish culture has left its impress on our social structure. ‘We think of these things as the local temple is dedi- cated. We evaluate the Jews as individuals and as a nation and realize anew the part which they have play- ed in the progress of the world. And so wée-are glad that the construction of the tem- ple makes Bismarck the center of Western North Dako- to jewry. It is with real sincerity that we welcome the advent of the new temple as a forward-step in the pro- gress of the city and congratulate the members of a great race whose progressive spirit transformed the temple from a dream to a reality. Watchfulness Needed ‘When C. B. Dickinson leaves the federal Indian school here on October 1, it should be the signal for local busi- ness and commercial interests to exhibit a renewed in- terest in the institution. ‘When one considers the history of the school, the rea- son for the need is obvious. Dickinson has been a strong man as superintendent and the institution has pro- gressed under his management, but it was not always 80 and the departure of Dickinson may renew the possibility that the school may go backward instead of forward if Bismarck interests go to sleep on the job. The school here has not been regarded with kindly eyes by the Indian Bureau at Washington in late years. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent in expanding other schools in this territory but the expan- sion plans have ignored, if they have not overlooked, the local institution. ‘The claim is made at Washington that the Bismarck school is not well situated; that it cannot easily be ex- panded because of its present location and that the re- striction as to size is something which cannot easily be overcome. Whether or not this is true depends somewhat on the point of view, but there is no denying the fact that the school couid be more favorably located so as to permit opportunity for expansion. The railroad track on one side and the Missouri river on the other are barriers, true enough. One is almost insurmountable and the other is difficult to surmount. But be that as it may and whatever the difficulties, Bismarck wants the school continued in operation and it wants it expanded if it is possible to obtain expansion. A real interest on the part of townsfolk may help create @ feeling that the purely physical obstacles are of less importance than some other advantages which might be developed. As long as the aim of the school is to develop in the students which attend it a better understanding of the arts, sciences and culture of modern life, a location near @ city is an advantage. This should be emphasized by ‘an evidence of interest on the part of Bismarck people. One can remember when the school was closed for a year because of a lack of governmental interest. Before Mr, Dickinson took over the superintendency, the pro- gress of the institution was by no means steady. ‘The excellent work of the present superintendent has been @ boon to Bismarck as well as to the school. It is to be hoped that his successor will carry on the work which has been started and help maintain the school as one of the city’s assets. At the same time that Bismarck bids friendly farewell to Mr. Dickinson it should extend a friendly welcome to his successor. And it should make its welcome felt by its Geeds as well as express it in words. A Bad Day for Mothers ‘Btarting a youngster to school for the first time 4s one of those minor but poignant tragedies that life insists on bringing to all mothers. There isn’t any way ‘of dodging it and there isn't any way of making tt easy to take. It has to be done, and that’s all there ts to It. ‘Still, it isn't much fun) The youngster, of course, usually enjoys it. To him it 1s a symbol of advancing years, a foretaste of. coming imdependence. He generally considers that going to _Sehool takes him out of the “baby” class and enrolls him, 4f not quite in the ranks of adults, at Icast a long step from eutright infancy. He gets a brand new peek at the outside world, and it provides him with quite a thrill. The worst of it is—from the mother's viewpoint—that he is quite right in looking at it that way. The first trip to school does, unquestionably, mark an epoch in childhood. It. brings to a sudden close the period of complete dependency on the home, it slashes straight through that brief, ecstatic time in which a child is al- ways on terms of perfect intimacy with its mother. That is why mothers, on the first day of school, ex- perience a strange and pitiful difficulty in keeping the tears back. They always have and they always will; and to repeat, there isn't anything that can be done about it. But there is small comfort in that reflection. Probably the hardest thing is not, after all, the knowl- edge that the youngster has taken the first of the steps that will eventually carry him away from his home tor- ever. The pathetic thing, the thing that tugs at the heart strings, is the brave, unsuspecting innocence with which a lad of six trudges off to face the world. By the time we are old enough to be parents, most of us come to realize that the world is far from being the Pleasant, delightful place that we imagined as children. It is a place in which illusions fade and in which dreams have an unaccountable way of failing to come true. There is a great deal more meanness and cruelty and heartbreak init than we used to think. Acquiring this knowledge 1s a painful process. Starting to school puts a child in line for its first dose of that knowledge. In the months that follow he will shed the wide-eyed trust, the spontaneous confidence, that are the heritage of all very small children. Grad- ually he will become soiled, as all of us grownups are soiled. All of this, to be sure, is universal and unescapable. It has to be, We learn by getting bumped, and in the long run it is generally good for us. But watching your own child take the first step isn't pleasant. The first day of school is a bad day for mothers. Unrest in South America Political conditions in South America have been stable for a good many years; consequently it is more than ordinarily discouraging to read of revolts, threatened | — or actual, in two countries at the same time. In Peru the revolt seems to be an established fact, and there is more than an even chance—judging from the cables—that the deposed president, Leguia, will suffer in the traditional Latin-American way. Just at present it is not quite clear what is happening in Argentina, but it is quite evident that there is a very menacing situation for the government there. Argen- tina has generally been considered the foremost nation in South America, judged by our own standards; it is dismaying to sce it lapsing into the habit of armed re- volt. Fortunately, there is no indication that our own gov- ernment will be required to take any action in either of these cases. Peru and Argentina, after all, are not Nicaragua. Our marines can ‘stay north of the equa- tor. The oldest teacher in the United States is said to be Miss Marada F. Adams of Maine who gets her picture Printed in The Tribune because of that fact. She has been teaching school for 62 years and probably the Grandfathers of her present pupils called her an “old maid”—or was that term out of date back in those days? Secretary of War Hurley sends a watch to Red Toma- hawk, noted Sioux Indian, who inducted him into the Sioux tribe during the secretary's visit to the American Legion convention here. Evidently Mr. Hurley is taking his duties as a Sioux brother quite seriously. Editorial] Comment | She Deserved a Crown + (Fargo Forum) i The law sometimes can be very perverse. Of course, it always is the law, and good American citizens, jealous | of the freedom for which their forefathers died, shoud Obey it, but there is such a thing as the law going too far in its exactions.

So when a neighbor's redio starts shrieking band music at 6 o'clock in the morning, something must be done.

She was fetched into court by the minions of the law, summoned by an irate radio fan, and fined $15. Is that justice?-we ask you. The court should have given Ada a bonus, a crown, @ ribbon bespeaking courage.and bravery and sent her on her way to heave more flower pots at inconsiderate dial twisters who make the early hours of the morning and the late hours of the night hideous with insuf- ferable music.

The Lawlessess Problem Can Be Solved (Glen Ullin News) _ Seven or eight bootleggers out of an alleged 130 or more, in Minot will face charges of violation of the Prohibition laws, according to daily news dispatches. A few have been taken in Jamestown and other North Da- kota cities and it is stated that the raids on speakeasies will continue. It looks like a feeble gesture on the part of officials to create a little excitement and make it look like they are really trying to earn the huge salaries Uncle Sam is paying them. No doubt the booze business “goes on as usual” in Minot, Jamestown and elsewhere. We read of gang wars and gang murders, of racketeer- ing and of official investigations. The daily press gives almost daily accounts of daylight bank holdups and of the bandits almost instantly disappearing from sight. Why shouldn't they disappear from sight? With every city of any size infested with lawless bootleg and gambling dens and places of even worse character, there should be no difficulty for a mere bank bandit to find a safe haven from the searching officials. The bandit spends his ill-gotten money freely and when a man or woman is in the business of one or more of our con- stitutional and statute laws there isn't much additional danger in hiding a bank bandit away.

Perhaps the thought was not exactly fair to Sylvia, though; the girl had an un- deniable talent, and a rare, orchid- like beauty, and her fan mail, Rid- dle had said. was among the larg- est in Hollywood. Perhaps, Sloan or no Sloan, she would have gone far. And yet, re- membermng how she had sat there smiling at him with eyes and lips, listening with flattering attentive- ness as the brawny director smoked and talked, Dan found it casy to think that perhaps Sylvia Patterson felt It was less to her choice than to her interests to feed Garry Sloan's vanity. And Dan resented bim. Anne Winter said, “I may be do- ing a bit in this picture yet. It sounds almost too good to be true, 1 know; but Mr. Sloan himself «talked to me today and they may give me a few lines.” “Atta girl,” Dan said encourag- {ngly. “Didn’t 1 tell you you'd knock ‘em dead if you got a chance?¥ Rather abruptly he asked, “What do you think of Sloan?” A report of the disaster at the time reads in part as follows: “The com- On Sept. 8, 1900, a West Indian|bined attack of the hurricane and hurrican drove @ tidal wave across the|tidal wave produced indescribable city of Galveston, Texas; and caused |horrors—the distruction of property ‘what is said to be the greatest dis- | sinking into insignificance when com- aster in the history of the North|pared with the appalling loss of life.}ous community of 38,000.

He’ isn't used to it.» Dick says: ‘Give an extra a bit and he automatically thinks he’s ‘a bit player and doesn't want to do extra work again.’ And 1 suppose he knows as much about it as any casting director in Hollywood.” He went over to her and took her hand in his and patted it. “You're going to go over, Anne;'1 know it. There's nothing can you, because—well, because you've got more ability right now than nine-tenths of them. Wait till they hear you sing. Have you sung for them yet, Anne?”” Anne said, “Of course not, silly.” “He's rather wonderful, Dan.” Anne got up from her chafr and took a few nervous steps toward ol f the front windows. There st tood, gazing tnto night and nothingness for a minute or two, and Dan perceived, when she turned her face toward him again, that she was highly agitated. He said. “I'm nothing but & clumsy idiot to be. stayi you should be resting. Tomorrow may megn a tremegdeys lot te you. and I'm keeping you from bed. You're a little nervous; you ought to have some hot milk and go right to sleep.” : Anne said, “Ob, Dan, you talk as it I were a baby. I'm going to have sandwiches and coffee, and so are you.

I'd be frightened to death to sing for Garry Sloan.” “You sang for me,” Dan remiad- ed her. “I know, but I've such a tiny Uttle voice, Dan.” . He told her that she did not have to shout over thé microphone. “Ig there any chorys singing in the Picture?” he asked. - Agne said there was not, and she rocteded to tell him the story of the picture. ‘Its working title, ghe informed him, was “Married in May.” 7 “Sylvia Patterson has several songs, and Raymond Marbury, And Pat Stanton and Mary Ellis have me or two, But egg etd teens singing.

She turned to and said, “Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a figure like Anne or Eva? They can eat as much as they want and never add an ounce. But me!—gosh, Dan, it’s awful!” Bva Harley, passing sandwiches to Dan, smiled. “How Is your pic- ture ‘coming along, Mr. Rorimer?” she asked politely. DAN was a little surprised at the question. It was the first time he had heard Eva express curiosity about anything. Mona seid, “What's the idea of the Mr. Rorimer, Eva? His name is Dap.” $ “Well, Dan, then,” said Eva. “That saunds a lot better.” Dan said. The picture, he informed them, was proceeding satisfactorily enough. “But it’s nothing to rave about. I saw some rushes today, and Collins seemed to be satisfied.” “and what kind of a newspaper reporter is Frederick Atwood?” Anne wanted to know. Rorimer grinned. “Just too nice tor words,” he said. Mona said, “That doesn’t sound so hot,” and Dan admitted that per- haps he was damning Atwood with faint praise. © P ie good actor and a good fellow,” he said, “but every time summarily shot, either in the act of robbing the dead Help was poured in from all parts of the world,and out of the storm nucleus of 20,000 left from a prosper- a Atwood talks he sounds as though he has just had his voice mant- cured, He's that correct and pre cise.” And police reporters, he went on to say, didn’t talk like actors, “They talk like police re porters.” “I like that crack,” Mona said, “about the manicured voice... .

And if there's a job to morrow you're in luck.” Eva Harley said, “And how!” She said it unsmilingly and, Rort- mer thought, a little bitterly. He made bis excuses a few min- utes later and departed; and when he got back to bis hotel he felt strangely at war with himself; the evening, despite Mone's attempts to put him at, bis ease, had not con- tributed to his peace of mind. He tried to tell himself that Anne Win- ter’s welcome had been as warm as usual, but he thought: “The girl wants to be left alone.” The prospect of bed was singu- larly uncheering, so he sat for a while in one of the lobby divans, bis hat and coat in his lap, and watched the party-goers drift past him to the dancing room, the wo men, expensively wrapped and coifed, chattering edly; the men following more quietly in din- ner suits like uniforms. One of the Roosevelt's “dress nights,” Rorimer idly supposed, and brought bis gaze to rest on the en- trance to the Blossom Room, where young women in black, and in dright colors, and in pastels, wait- ed for their escorts and smoked cigarets and swayed their shoul- ders gently with the dance rhythm. RRoeiER thought he recognized one or two among them as movie actresses, but he was not cer- tain. He thought: “But they’d all like to be mistaken for movie ac- tresses”; and, remembering an old English racetrack quotation, that “On the turf, or under the turf, all men are equal,” he felt that there was something equally democratic ue leveling about the scene before fa : He went upstairs presently, and took a book with him, and read himself to sleep. His bed-side lamp was burning and the book was be — ee him on the covers when mar tf strains from the Hollywéod High School band, almost beneath his window, roused him in thé morniog. In his bath he told himself de terminedly that there would be ng more visits to the bungalow with. out @ direct invitation, To prove to Anne that hq was interested in the outcome of the day at Grand United, and to satisty his own curi- sity, he called her up that eve- ning, and learned that she had been given the greatly-coveted “bit.” But be said nothing about seeing her.

F. writes: “I have been told that falling hair is caused by thyroid gland trouble. Is this cor- rest?” . Answer: There is, no doubt, a close relationhip between the growth of hair and the function of the thyroid gland, Those who have an insuffici- ency of the thyroid secretion usually become fat and have a poor growth of hair, while the thin person is usually of the hyperthyroid type and has plenty of s.rong hair. Colitis Question: Mrs. O. L. writes: “My son, 21 years old, is suffering from colitis. The doctor says it will take a long time to cure him, and that he must not eat meat. He is not living at home, but in a boarding house, so I cannot regulate his diet. How best can I help him?” Answer: Tell your son to move from the boarding house, as it is the last place in the world where he can get a special diet such as he requires for the.cure of colitis. The doctor was right when he said it would take @ long time to bring about a cure, but wrong when he said that meat produces colitis. “Colon-itis” simply means infammation of the colon, which comes from dietetic errors of all kinds. I advise your son to eat in @ restaurant or cafeteria where he can select the proper foods and thus follow the menus which appear in this paper every Friday. Condiments Question: Mrs. C. D. asks: “Is a moderate use of condiments very harmful? I find it hard to prepare meals ‘without using a little spice, vinegar, etc.” Answer: Spices and condiments stimulate the flow of digestive juice, and if they are used at all they should be used at a meat meal. Those who suffer from hyperacidity already have more acid than they know what to do with, and anything which will excite an additional flow of hydrochloric acid is bad for them. ————______—_—__¢ i BARBS \ OO A New York doctor says that an oc- casicnal drunk adds to the length of life, Rather a staggering statement. * 2 & When a native of India goes to work, the office sage observes, his first thought, of course, is to make lots-of rupee. x * * In Mississippi, folk are sometimes said to refer to moonshine as “leop- ard sweat.” Perhaps they'll go so jfar as to say the imbiber can get quite a jaguar on. * ** Now that hs head of the Chinese National Army has offered troops money rewards for capturing certain you may expect his men here- after to talk,in terms of their cash values. se * A congress of fish of all nations opened at an aquarium in New York There’s a catch here eee Now if Tom Lipton were entering i somewhere, rr golf tournament instead of a yacht- ing contest there might be a crack |pogerteere enour hin exriny. fap, tn Sup | . | (Copyright, 1930, NEA Service, Inc.) “What @ dull world this would be | | FLAPPER FANNY SAYS: if every imaginative maker of legends |was stigmatized as a liar.”—Heywood | Broun. ys
