CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Murder Will Out Re, Rarely has the old adage “murder will out” been more | clearly proved than in the case of the Haven familly inj McKenzie county, news of which has sickened the state. What began as a mystery has ended in the revelation of one of the worst tragedies and one of the most’ter- rible crimes in the history of North Dakota. As this, is written it is impossible to say who is to blatie, al-! though the finger of suspicion points strongly‘ toward Charles Bannon, neighbor farmer of the Havens, now held in jail at Williston. about being “burned, alive,” tremely kind-hearted jailer told him that it was Just,pos- sible that ‘he would.not be electrocuted, the ‘boy. went into a terrific hysterical spasm of relief, screaming frightfully from reaction to his long agony of suspense. Just what the state of Ohio will eventually do to this boy, who is now 14, isn’t clear. Offhand, one would say that it doesn’t much matter. His life would seem to be pretty effectively smashed already. That, right now, is not the point. The point is that this brief, horrible story will tell the historian of the future just about all he will need to know about the wis- dom, pity and understanding of the American civilization of 1930. i The Christmas Clubs : ‘The ‘Christmas savings clubs” organized by the banks are cach year becoming more and more important in the national scheme of things.’ Figures compiled by the 11,000,000 members of such clubs. year is $54.60—five dollars below last year's average. total number of depositors, are greater than ever before. Those who are among the thrifty 11,000,000 do not thought makes it obvious that the plan is a good thing for the nation as a whole. The banks estimate that all mediately—a stimulus for business of no mean size! A Row ina Cathedral It is a little bit hard to award any palms to any of the} principals in the Judge Lindsey-Bishop Manning episode | at St. John’s cathedral, New York. To leap upon a table| in the middle of a church service and demand a hearin does not quite seem proper; yet.the speech that provoked ‘the outburst seems, likewise, to have keen something less | than temperately, episcopal. However, the chief prize for poor taste- ‘would seem to First came the disclosure, months after the teageey. that the Havens had disappeared. Why the disappear~ ance was not investigated sooner will be a mystéry to some persons but'to those who know their ‘west end ‘the conditions which prevail in the saneneadh sections*of> this State it is easily understood. “Apparently “the Havens were the kind of people + -who keep their affairs to themselves. They were friendly but not intimate with their neighbors. And so, when , they disappeared, it probably was not noticed for a few: days, both because of the sparsely settled conditions of the country and the cloak which-the reticence of the Havens had thrown about their actions. The fact that the people of the neighborhood had the usually: ae faculty: of minding their own business proved an: ald the murderer or murderers in this case. Finally, 10 months after the slayings came the flis-: closure that the family was missing, the beginning‘ of the search, the investigation of the Havens’ financial af- fairs, the quesloning the Young Bannon who had been living én the farm and then the discovery of the bodies! by following the directions which Bannon gave. os Had Bannon refused to talk it seems that the slayings might well have remained a mystery for p considerably longer timé if not forever. Regardless of whether it was ras conceived, the idea of burying the -hodies beneath , the dirt. floor; of the cow stable, where trampling of “animals id remove all traces of the earth having been distur clever in‘effect. It is unlikely that afi ope ever would have looked there. nnon talked and the murder was “out.” But Ste out from the large number of men whirbiad] 6p “ part in the investigation is Andrew Jackson Knox, who entered the case as attotney for Bannon when the latter faced trial for embezzlement on the charge of disposing of some of the Haven hogs. We know nothing of Mr. , Knox's legal attainments but as a man and a citizen he’ closely approaches the ideal of what a lawyer is a ‘Posed to be. Without deserting the interests of his client, he kept im mind that the public welfare comes first. And 80, “with the aid of Bannon's mother and the family spirityal ‘ diréctor, jhe induced the youth to tell the truth ard- | ing, the Havens’ disappearance. ‘The crime will be remembered in North Dakota as one of the most horrible and revolting in the history of the state. It is virtually a prairie reproduction of the St. Valentine's day massacre in Chicago where seven gun- | men were ‘slaughtered by members of a rival gang, but with this difference; the Chicago victims were-gunmen’ also and all the participants were outside the law, whereas the Havens were peaceable and innocent people ‘and had done nothing to justify their terrifying end at the hands of an enemy. While the crime will be remembered, Mr. “Whox and his’ part in solving the crime ‘probably ‘will be “forgotten quickly, But many will remember him as “the” lawyer who was eminently faithful to his trust as‘an officer of “ the courts of this state and who kept the interests of the tommon welfare above the interests of his client:, Contrasted with the kind of lawyers who infest the tourts in other parts of this nation and whose principal * duty seems to be to ald guilty persons in evading the law, Mr. Knox stands as a lasting credit to the legal profession both in this state and elsewhere. If there were more lawyers like him fewer crimes would go un- detected and fewer criminals would go free. He has demonstrated how valuable an honest lawyer can be fo a community and even while we shudder at the heinousness of the crime our spirits are lightened ® bit by the figure of this public servant in the back- ground. te : s A Nation Indicts Itself A nation that is cruel to children convicts itself of pos- session of a very defective sort of civilization; and every * once in a while. something happens that indicates that ‘we in the United States are not entirely free from that ‘ kind of guilt. In Bt. Clairsville, O., there was a boy named Johnny ‘Woods. He was 13 years old, and somehow or other he “got the wrong kind of start in life. Whether this was , entirely his fault is not quite clear. Perhaps there was something lacking in his environment. At any ate, John * Woods got into trouble. . seother boy, Scie Sears cider than. dots iese’ seta to attempt a bit of highway robbery with him.

Guards at. the, -keformatory im- mediately began to work on 13-year-old John. They “Feminded him that he was now a murderer and that the / Penalty for murder is death; and they assured him that ‘he would die in the electric chair. Then the state of Ohio officially gave color to this vweird theory by hauling young John Woods back to St. ‘Mlairaville.and bringing him up before a judge for sen- ‘tence. ‘The judge heard the arguments and reserved ‘decision. John was.taken back to jail to wait. . ‘What happened was to be expected. John’ érumpled| * up completely. He has taken to screaming with terror. ‘His fright at the thought of the electric chair has re- peatedly thrown him into convulsions. Intermittently he cries out, “I don't want to be electrocuted.” His jail- go_to certain members of the congregation, who, as the offending judge was being dragged from the cathedral, |, tried loudly, “Lynch him!” and urged that he be beaten} up and thrown downstairs. As an example of Christian meekness and forbearance, this behavior on the part of the crowd is not quite what one would expect. ~ Editorial Comment ‘ Haltoriats. ethene below show the trend of thought by other ‘editors.

Looking .at-1t trom the railroad viewpoint,’ it does seem cruel punfair to use public money to give com- petitors with railroads-free right of way.- But water transportation is cheaper,.no matter what railroad men say about that, and where it can be used instead of railroads its use is a public benefit and a public necessity. Therefore rajling. again waterway developments is wasted breath.

It was such a popular misconception that served agricul- ture so poorly ten years ago when the speculative orgy in farm lands prospered on the opinion that prices never would go down. The same error now characterizes the attitude toward agricultural investment turning upon the adjusted viewpoint that they:never will go up.

Another curious fact is that Poisonings usually occur in threes, and it also happens that more people cae poisons on sunshiny than on dull ‘Today the average person does not fear poisoned wines, blades, arrows, rings or lockets, and is in no extra- ordinary danger of having poison dropped into his food. At one time all prominent people used to make the cook taste every dislr first to be Sure that no Geadly poison has been added to it. "Although we no longer have this fear that poison has'been placed in our food, accidental poisonings from home-canned, foods’ are fairly com- mon. If you open & jar or can which looks, smells or tastes bad, it is better to be safe than sorry. Horne-canned meats and especially sauseve should be carefully inspected to guard against a severé poisoning known cs botulism. We often read @f people dying of spoiled food such as meat, fish, mussels. or sea food, etc. or poisonous mushrooms, There is very little if any danger from commercial- ly canned foods, as the canneries are subject to such rigid inspection, and the canners, themselves, have found that it pays to give the foods the best care possible. er, if a can "is puffed out or blown out ‘at the end,.or has.a.leak,.or the food is dis- colored, it should be discarded.

Often a short orange juice fast followed by a milk diet is the best regimen to use for a few days when the patient is re- covering from food poisoning. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS F Cancer Question: G. H. asks: “What i: the best method of preventing the return of cancer once removed by operation? Does exposing the parts to the sun help?” Answer: The best method I know of for preventing cancer is to live on a careful «diet, exercise _ vigorously each flay, and adopt the right mental attitude. It is a noticeable fact that cancer rarely if ever develops with those who continue to live a vigorous physical culture life. The congestion of cancer cells to any one part of the body, cannot occur if the circulation of blood does not become sluggish | Sunbaths are helpful because of tne ultra-violet effect on the blood. Nude sunbaths should be taken. exposing the entire body, as the effect of the the sun’s rays are no more helpful over a certain diseased part than over the other parts of the body. The main objects-of these sunbaths is to | absorb all of the ultra-violet rays possible, and the effect is general upon the blood and not specific to any one part. ‘Wholewheat Breads Question: H. E. J. asks: “May one who has catarrh eat wholewheat bread and muffins in which there is no sugar?” Answer: Wholewheat bread and muffins are wholesome foods, but all starches should be discontinued by the catarrhal patient until the excess amount of mucu: has subsided. After that, these foods may be used in moderation with good results. Eye Trouble Question: K. L. asks: “Is there any remedy to stop a white coating around the eyes every morning? Seems to. be caked on the lashes.” Answer: Use be good eye wash two or three: times daily, and have your eyes examined by a competent ‘hot « optometrist. 1 KFYR AT THE MOVIES { ee ea Tt eS CAPITOL THEATRE . '{, With engines puffing, whistles blowing and bells ringing, “Danger Lights,” Radio Pictures’ spectacular all-talking railroad drama will speed into the Capitol theatre Monday for its opening performances. Heralded as the greatest drama of '} the rails ever shown on the talking screen, it has met with acclaim wherever it has been shown. Louis Wolheim, Robert Armstrong, | and Jean Arthur appear in the prin- cipal roles and are supported by such well known actors as Frank Sheridan, Hugh Herbert, Robert Edeson, Allen Roscoe and James Farley. The. picture was produced on “lo- cations” in twelve states. The com- Pany traveled 31,000 miles on three special trains. Scenery of the Rocky Mountains, Plains of the north and middle west and metropolitan ‘backgrounds in Chicago have given opportunity for unusual photographic effects. Through the use of newly perfected sound re- cording devices, extremely realistic sound effects have been obtained, it 7 is said. George B. Seitz directed the pic- ture which is an adaptation of James Ashmore Creelman’s. original story, “The Railroad Man.” A new card table ‘has been given a hinged top, the under-side of which, when lifted, forms a screen for a home ,/motion picture projector.
