Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Good Ideas Wanted Business everywhere is looking for the man with good, workable ideas whose brains and ingenuity contribute to Progress. : The same thing is true of the Bismarck Association of Commerce, which by its program recently outlined, is taking steps to bring the ideas of its member into the open that the best selection may be made. From the standpoint of the chamber as well as from that of other residents of Bismarck and the surround- ing territory, it is important that the Association of Commerce be a wide-awake, aggressive organization, truly representative of the temper and attitude of this community. Bismarck is a progressive city and in & great many ways the association of commerce is its representative and the organization by which it will be judged. It is essential that the city and its greatest business organization keep its best foot forward. The plan of calling sectional conferences of associa- tion members in order that each member may present his ideas is eminently sound and should result in betiefit to the association and the community. : It is-not ‘always the man most willing to talk- who thinks most clearly. There are men in subordinate posi- tions today who, if they had only mustered the initia- tive to present their ideas at the proper place and time and had developed the courage to fight for them, would have been outstanding successes. The ideas were there but bashfulness or diffidence kept them quief, .As a. .-Tesult they and the world were denied opportunities for ‘| new progress. A good association of commerce is, in reality, a busi- ness democracy where projects designed to do the great- est good for the greatest number are discussed and launched. The best ideas and suggestions may come from the humblest members or from those with the jeast pride_of place. ‘Who knows what genius may be serving now in a relatively minor capacity? ‘ It is to be hoped that these sectional conferences will provoke free and frank discussions of the community's position, interests and prospects. Such interchanges of opinion have the effect of creating interest in the organ- ization and, when a program finally is adopted, the members will have full knowledge of how it was arrived at and will have a stronger tendency to give it en- thusiastic support. It is to be hoped that these conferences will be well attended and that they will accomplish tlge end for which officials of the association have designed them. ~ _ Christmas Fire Hazards .. A modern philosopher, in reviewing the Christmas holiday fire situation, said: “Fire hazards seem always to be the ‘stowaways’ of the Christmas surprise pack. They remain unwelcome guests until some chance sets the frenzy of fire into motion and destruction ensues.” Every year when Christmas comes around unsus- pected fire dangers threaten to become a greater menace tothe public than any other time during the year.| Everyone is therefore urged to be vigilant in guarding The following fire prevention rules will serve as a gui during the holiday season: = __1n setting up the Christmas tree keep it away from ‘Stoves, gas heaters or electric heating apparatus and’ make sure it is securely fastened not only to @ -sub-: stantial base but near the top. ey ‘Trees should be taken down before they become so dry they are @ fire menace. If set in water they will remain green longer and be less combustible. = ~ © Do not use decorations on the tree that burn read- ily, or hang them on lighting fixtures or electric ‘wires. Do not illuminate the tree with candles. If electric lights are used and the fuse blows out it means trouble and @ qualified electrician should be called. He should also attend to any special wiring. Discourage the custom of displaying-a lighted: candle in the window. Draperies may catch fire. , Sentiment is worth while but not at the expense of life and “property. : Experience in previous years indicates there is danger in amateur motion picture machines. Cheap, flimsily constructed machines are an extreme hazard, especially if nitrocellulose film is used. Insist upon the best built machine; one that has been tested and approved by the Underwriters’ Laboratories, and use only acetate film, known as “safety” film, which burns slowly. Extinguish all hearth fires and electric lights when leaving the premises. ~Promptly dispose of all wrappings when packages have been opened. When burning paper and rubbish care should be observed to prevent the scattering of lighted pieces which might endanger property. Following the Star ‘The best thing about Christmas is not the day itself: It is the period immediately preceding it. If, as we fondly believe, the heavens parted and a shin- ing miracle broke through on the Judea hills 20 cen- turies ago, the day of miracles is not over. There will not be any miracles on Christmas day, of course—unless you count that shy, breath-taking look that comes into a child's eyes when he gets his first glimpse of the Presents that are awaiting him; but during the last fort- night or so before Dec. 25 there is an authentic mirac! in which the whole nation shares. ’ Look at it this way. During all of the rest of the year most of us human beings, sadly imperfect as we are, are moved by one chief motive—selfishness. Each of us is ut for the main chance. It is every man for himself, ‘witnout qualifications. But when December begins to slide past us a change __ | something that is much bigger and profounder than he can guess. He is enabling himself to partake, in the best | :] the Policy he’ sliggests would.go far to create a bond of own efforts, and we collect money so that these people can be helped. We ¢:ve, according to our ability, moved by the sincerest and finest motive that comes to us in the entire year. A Rockefeller gives a million dollars; we less gifted ones give our dollars and cur half dol- lars; and the result is a solidarity and a unity wiich the whole nation feels. And the funny part about it is that it is not the recipient of this charity who is the chief gainer by it. himself really needs, and gives it to those who have nothing at all, is doing a great deal more for himself than he ever imagines. He is putting himself in tune with possible way, of the Spirit of Christmas. And that Spirit, in turn—what is it? Isn't it, after are, or ought to be, brothers; the feeling that the fate of one is the concern of all; the belief that thete is a heart? lowing the star and finding the ultimate meaning of creation in a Judean village. But that privilege is open to us, in a different way. We have our star, and we can| follow it if we know what brotherhood and kindness mean—and if we do follow it we may rest assured that at least one gleam of light from beyond the borders of ordinary iiving will come to us and transfigure us. A Tip for Investors | A valuable tip for potential purchasers of securities is contained in a little article in the current Magazine of Wall Street. This article points out that the investor It is the giver.

If we remember some of the les- sons the last ‘stock crash taught, our next rising mar- ket may not terminate quite so disastrously. Dr. Barton’s Fine Record | The late Dr. William E. Barton was a citizen whom the} United States cannot easily spare. His death leaves al distinct gap in the ‘ministry, in literature and in the; nation’s list of useful and admirable men. In the Congregational ministry Dr. Barton had long been a leader. His 25-year service in the Oak Park (IIl.) church gained for him wide recognition as one of the denomination’s finest ministers, and his service as an ‘Aimefi¢ah délégate to the world conference on faith and order, -in“ Switzerland, three years ago added to his fame. ! ‘His reputation stood most securely, however, for his studies in the life of Lincoln. He devoted an immense | amount of time to research on Lincoln's life, and wrote| | some scholarly and charming books on the subject. Tn his death the country has suffered a real Joss. Porto Ritan Diplomats Theodore Roosevelt, governor of Porto Rico, urges that the U. 8. government train young Porto Ricans for diplomatic and consular service in South America. | Governor Roosevelt points out that Porto Rico is a place where North and South American cultures meet} and blend.

No man in the state is more familiar than he‘with the problems of rural education, and no one who is familiar with the subject Can fail to agree with his.statement that improvement in the rural schools ‘has not-kept pace with that in the city schools. One condition to which this relative lack of progress is attributed is the system under which the rural schools are organized. The district system has served a good “purpose. It is adaptable to the conditions for which it ‘was first organized, and it is undeniable that even un- der. the handicaps which it has encountered it does still in individual instances produce excellent results. But the ‘syatem as @, whole fails to meet conditions such as often exist,‘ in which lack of revenue, and perhaps lack of vision ‘on the pait of individual school officers results in rural schools as primitive in method and as scant in achieverhent as the worst that could be found in in much more primitive conditions than now. prevails generally. One step in the direction of improvement which is sug- gested is the organization of the rural schools on a county rather than’on a local district.basis. Under such ‘a system adequate funds would be provided. for all schools without undue burden on any taxpayer, and through a central organization each school would be under the di- rect Supervision of an authority competent to deal with its problems and able to insure to the ‘child in even the. most remote district 9s good opportunities as now en- jJoyed by his more favored neighbors.

THER'S PR oO Oisre: Oo 'GrRos upon as a catastrophe that struck entirely without warn- ing, a hurricane that swept down on a smiling sea where all had been calm and peaceful up to the very moment :0f-the disaster.' Naturally, looking at it in that way, we have expected its end to be almost equally sudden nd unexpected, and the fact that recovery'is going to _| be a long-drawn-out process is proving more painful than. we had supposed. However, the years immediately preceding the stock market crash of 1929 are worth examining; and Senator Henrik Shipstead of Minnesota, in an article in the cur- rent Magazine of Wall Street, takes occasion to point out -that the prosperity of the days just before the crash was not nearly as substantial or widespread as we ordinarily ‘suppose. “You will remember,” writes the senator, “that in those years there was a good deal of talk about “profitless pros- rity.” I think that it was justified. The way I look is it, our prosperity has been more or less artificial and of the paper-profits variety for some years, Artificial prosperity feels about as good as real prosperity while it lasts, for many elements of the community, but this aftermath is not so pleasant.” Senator Shipstead then points out thdt government figures show that the value of the U.

Wherever it is, the gang uses. it as a point to transfer information and their headquarters is in the rear or upstairs. It is the doings in a “cover-up joint” that provide many of the tense moments in “The Door- wey to Hell.” A This melodramatic story of mod- ern crime that has grown to such gigantic proportions since the advent of prohibition paints a realistic pic- ture of the lives of those who live outside the law. An all-star cast enacts the leading roles in “The Doorway to Hell,” written by Row- land Brown. CAPITOL THEATRE With an all-star cast of seven well- known screen and stage players, Uni- versal has made what is claimed to be the outstanding drama of the year, “A Lady Surrenders,” which will open next Monday at the Capitol theatre. Adapted from the popular novel “Sincerity,” by John Erskine, “A Lady Surrenders” is a blending of ul- tra-sophistication and astute sub- tlety. It was directed by John M. Stahl, one of the best known direc- tors and producers. x ‘The story concerns the marital dif- . fichlties of a young and well-to-do bed“ mantfacturer and his novelist wife who is bored by the confinement of married life, Conrad Nagel, one of the screen's best known and most populer stars, has the masculine lead as the young husband. Rose Hobart, who, until her recent removal to Hollywood, where she sought a career in talking pictures, was one of Broadway's leading fem- inine dramatic artists, plays the smart, sophisticated, novelist-wife. An intriguing love story, involving the husband and the wife's best friend, played by Genevieve Tobin, late star of the stage version of “Fifty Million Frenchmen,” forms the basis forthe action of the play. Both Miss Hobart and Miss Tobin present a veritable fashion revue in the smart Paris creations which they wear in this story of married life in the upper social strata. Others in the remarkable cast are Vivian Oakland, Carmel Myers and Franklin Pang- WOULD REDUCE MEALS Washington, Dec. 20.—(?)—Senator Smoot has an idea; those who have meals to eat should eat one meal less ‘a week and give the cost of the meal to the poor.

SY DR. BY ORPICCOY WHO CAN EATING FOR YOUR HEALTH’S SAKE Mos: mousewives consider three viewpoints in. selecting food for the family. First of all, they usually eon- sider, the necessity for choosing food which the different members of the | family will like, buying and prepar- ing those foods which have an aggre- able taste. I can see no objection to this unless one makes the mistake of making this selection such an import- ant factor that many unwholesome foods are constantly used because of their agreeable flavor. The housewife always desires to give the family a large enough quan- tity of food to fill them up so that they will feel comfortably stuffed and even sleepy atid lazy after a meal. Many cooks consider that this is very important and many cooks become proud of the fact that everyone eat- ing at their table remarks about the food being so good that they have eaten until ready to burst I am sure that anyone who gets up from the table and feels that he has been well stuffed has definitely injured his health and digestion everytime he does 50. ‘The average- housewife also. selects food with on idea of getting it at as low a price as possible. To summar- ize these points the housewife picks out reasonably priced food which will fill up well and taste good at the same time. A New Viewpoint I believe it is well for those of my readers who afe seriously studying their food problems to add or substi- tute some of the following points in selecting their food: First of all, food should be chosen because it is of the right quality to build bone, blood, nerve and other tissues. To do this, one must study food chemistry and understand the relative value in the body of proteins, organic salts and vitamins, starches, sugars, etc. One must understand that proteins and the organic salts found in the leafy green“vegetables are the most important foods which can be used in the body in building cell structure. They must understand that the carbohydrates are of the least importance, and that their use should always be reduced to the very mini- mum of necessity. = In considering the problem of the amount of food to be used it is well to know that most dieticians are agreed that everyone eats too much of all foods. It has been variously estimated that we need only a third to a half of the amount of food most People are accustomed to using. Each QUESTIONS IN REGARD TO HEALTH Cpa!

A. asks: “Can you give me a diet and treatment for children suffering from prairie itch? I have tried Lysol baths and soda baths and various other remedies, but it doesn’t seem to yield to treatment. The itching is worse at night. A rash all over the body, and a slight rash on the head.” Answer: Prairie itch is a name for various itching eruptions fre- quently seen among farmers and lumbermen. It is probably due to an effort of the skin to éliminate toxic substances as a result of wrong food combinations, and the itching is made more severe by the presence of dust or coarse underclothing. The reason you have not had success with the Lysol baths, etc., is because you have not corrected the internal condition responsible for the trou- ble. You must be especially careful to avoid the use of an acid fruit with starch, such as strawberry jam and bread or potatoes, oranges and oat- meal, ete. If the children are placed on an exclusive acid fruit diet for a few days, using nothing but oranges or apples, and using a large enema at night followed by a diet such as is outlined in my newspaper articles, I feel sure they will be benefited. You should also see that they have a cold shower or sponge bath morning and evening. After drying the skin, a Little olive oil may be rubbed in. One Side Larger Than Other Question: P. J. K. writes: “One side of my body seems larger than the other. What could cause this, and what can I do about it?” Answer: Exact measurements will usually show-that one side of the body is larger than the other. This may be caused by some nerve affec- tion. There is another theory believed in by some that sleeping on one side makes the body larger on the side nearest the bed. In any case, the cure would be through taking well balanced exercises and doing every- thing to help the circulation. "Today Is the | Anniversary of | —¢ TAKING OF LOUISIANA On Dec: 20, 1803, the United States took possession of the Louisiana ter- ritory after purchasing it from France for the price of $15,000,000. This was the most remarkable event in the administration of President Jefferson. ‘The territory comprised the entire region between the Mississippi -river and the Rocky Mountains, and ex- tended ‘rom the north of Texas to the southern boundary of British America. Napoleon willingly sold it at such a cheap price because he saw that he was likely to have war with Great Britain and knew that the British fleet could easily keep French forces away from the Mississippi river. The Louisiana purchase had these important results: . : It secured the entire control of the Miséissippi and more than doubled the area of the United States, it strengthened the bond of union in the southwest and it gave new force to arguments for “internal improve- ments” —the building of roads and canals to connect the east and west.
