CHI YORK BOSTON Funny—To the Rest of Us Some of the things which politicians do—and withal maintain a straight face—are hilariously funny to a great many citizens whose interest in politics is only casual. Every good citizen is interested in his local, state and federal government because it is his business to be. 60, but very few take their politics as a personal matter ‘any more. Less and less each year are men looking to Political action as a cure for their personal ills. The politician, of course, is never so casual. His posi- tion or his income depends upon his maintaining him- Self in power or getting into power. . It is a. bread and butter game and politicians play it with all the energy which the rest of us show in pushing our own business. The difference is that the politician usually feels forced ‘to cloak the motives which impel him to the ‘things he does. os " Probably the best burlesque in some time is that now being enacted in Washington where Mr. Robert H. Lucas, executive director of the Republican national com- mittee, finds himself “on the pan” by reason of his op- Position to Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska. -Mr. Lucas, it will be remembered, admitted that he tried to bring about the Nebraskan’s defeat in the election last fall, He was very quiet about it but the forces set in action by the energetic Mr. Nye of our own state finally brought Mr. Lucas to light as the dark menace in the G. O. P; woodpile. Mr. Norris and his}cohorts are bellowing for the L4\c®8} Gate: or the Great Smoky Mountain chain, or the En- blood. They want to see the political. guillotine operate on Mr. Lucas. They say it is dangerous to the party to have such a traitor in a place of high command. As might be expected, Mr. Lucas ‘has countered with the idea that Mr. Norris and those who think like him should be expelled from the party. Mr. Norris, says Mr. Lucas, doesn’t represent his idea of what a Republican. should be. Tt is all very important ‘because, after. all, the dif- ficulty affects the political organization now ruling the land but, at the same time, it is funny. The argument, of course, is to decide whether Mr. Lucas or Senator Norris {s 2 Republican. + +8 ‘When Senator Moses referred to the western independ: ent. senators as “sons of wild jackasses,” it was merely a ‘Ariz.;; Black - Bass, Ia.; Promptness, Pa.; Breezy Hill, Kan.; would any sensible man, living in a town with such a self-conscious Chamber of Commerce has tried to pret-} tity them or get an‘ urban flavor into their rural con- notation. If you dug back to the beginnings and got a description of each christening, you might have some good stories. That town of Horse Thief, for instance— doesn’t it speak for ‘itself? And wouldn’t you like to Minnetonka. _ are beside the point. The important thing is for these and doing their miserable best to throw him into a The Buckeye state might learn something by coming out here to North Dakota and taking a look at the state training school in Mandan, As such institutions go there are many larger in the land and many with more imposing buildings, but few can point to a more constructive record with regard to improving the physical, mental and moral outlook of the children who are sent there. After all, that is the real object of such institutions. Unless they do that they are drains on the public purse which have failed to justify themselves. The Names of America News that the town of Lineoleumville, on Staten Island, New York, has voted to change its name to something less bizarre leads one to hope that Linoleumville isn't starting @ movement that will become general. Some of our place names are very odd, and some of them Probably bring @ blush to the native son’s cheek when he signs a hotel register; but most of them are descriptive, and it would be a mistake to change them. To begin with, there is Main street. For some reason this name evokes great merriment in the metropolitan centers, as if it were intrinsically amusing. If you are really enlightened, you will never mention Main street without a sneer... . But after all—what’s wrong with Main street as a name? It is perfectly apt. The street that gets that name is, usually, a town’s main street. Why not name it that way? Besides, Main street has become distinctive. It is typical of this time and place. In its bluntness, its lack of affectation and its commonness, Main street is per- haps our foremost Americanism. It is worth hanging on to. Then there are town names. Some of them auto- matically shed light on old, forgotten history. Bad Axe, in Michigan, for instance, is wonderfully expressive. So are Medicine Bow, Wyoming, and Placerville, in Cali- fornia, and Prairie du Chien, in Wisconsin, and Baton Rouge, in Louisiana. “Phere are smaller places, too, whose names have a refreshing strangeness. Such towns as Horse Thief, Defeated Creek, Ky.; Smoky Ordinary, Va.; Womble, N. C.; Good Water, Ala., and Hahatomka, Mo. name,.consent ‘to having it changed to something less/ outlandish? For all names of this sort really mean something. No know how Defeated Creek got its name? The early geographers, in some cases, had a veritable genius for nomenclature. Cape Cod could not have a better name; nor could Old Point Comfort, or the Golden chanted Mesa, or the Staked Plains of Texas, or Lake But those names, musical and romantic in their sound, lesser places to keep their names. Let Lineoleumville be the last to give up'a picturesque title. some time in Wilton. _ Willis Gill and family shopped | Bismarck last Tuesday. sick with bad colds, quite ill at this time.

They are published without regard gree with The Trib- S. 4 to. whether. they agree, re an forerunner of the situation which now exists. There were signs on the political moon long before that. For in- stance, North Dakotans well remember the time when Mr. Norris and both North Dakota senators were kicked out into the cold by the powers of the Republican party. Later, of course, they were received back with open arms and given preference In the way of committee appoint- ments. In reality, therefore, the present battle has some historical precedent in our own times. It is amusing to the average citizen because he has long known that both Senator Norris and men like Mt- Lucas have been bound together only by the desire to “get somewhere” in politics. Each probably’ is sincere in his own definition of Republicanism, but the coalition .of the Norrises and the Lucases of the. party for many yeats has been a sham of very thin fabric. To see it exposed and fought over, therefore, amuses the onlooker for he has been aware of the inconsistency of this-si tion for many years, North Dakota Scores Again Whatever one may say about football as a sport, there 1s no denying its value as an advertising medium. . North Dakota university's squad of pigskin chasers’ drew some comment when they went east thls Yall, made a creditable showing against the West Point cadets and vanquished Duquesne. It must have served to give the effete east a new conception of the way in which things have developed here in the northwest. “ ‘The Pacific coast probably thinks of North Dakota as @ land of perpetual ice, snow and political wrangles, It served as an eye-opener, therefore, for the Nodaks to capture the scalps of the Los Angeles Firemen in con- vineing fashion Christmas day. Some of the advertising which North Dakota has re- ceived outside its boundaries has been bad but the prej-/ udice which these misstatements have built up is bound to yanish with the better understanding athletic com- petition brings. ‘The sight of a strong football team, composed of fine, clean young men, is bound to give other sections & new idea of North Dakota. Beating the other fellow in @ clean, fair manner is bound to give him new respect as well as keener understanding. For the sake of the state, therefore, as well as for the fine record which the university team already has‘niade this year, we are glad the Nodaks won. Work vs. Amusement Beware of both hard work and of too much amuse- ‘ment is the moral which may be drawn from the warn- ing of a big insurance company’s health department. The death rate from pneumonia, be it known, is in- ereasing and too much play as well as too much work are listed as leading causes. At this season of the year, the experts explain, most persons work the hardest and indulge in the widest social activities. Ingufficient fresh sir is accompanied by insufficient sleep.. The system is weakened, so the doctors claim, and the germs: which are ever present in the system get in their nasty. work. The result is a full-fledged case of pneumonia. Few of us are aware that work and amusement, either| ‘elone.or together, could have suth dire effects, : A Case for Dismissals + fit is good to learn that Ohio spared itself the infamy @f putting a 14-year-old boy on trial for his life as p the Question Begging ae Herald) While it will be. fairer to judge the report of the president's crime ci m when it appears and not in advance, still if a¢cepted reports in Washington are anywhere’ near correct {tis clear that the report will be disappointing, especially to’those who had hoped that it might throw light on ‘prohibition and yield some sound Practical advice on what to do about it. The latest Washington report, published in The Herald last night, is ¢o the effect that, in order to accomplish something like.a unanimous report, prohibition is to be relegated.to @ subordinate place and the report devoted largely to a general « ssion of the crime situation. When it is so paipable that prohibition is the fertile soil in which most of our organized crime flourishes, to discuss the .crime situation while ignoring, for policy's beperaea, condition that causes it looks like a vast waste Crimes rife, especially. in the large cities, because criminals ‘find: it absurdly profitable to violate the pro- hibition laws and thus are equipped with the most gigan- tic treasury that criminals ever rioted in.

The Power Fight Begins J (Washinton Star) The shake-up in. the federal power commission's per- sonnel represented in the requested resignations of Wil- Mam V. King, chief accountant; Charles A. Russell, solici- tor, and F. E. Bonner, executive secretary, should be interpreted as a natural desire on the part of the newly @ppointed commissioners to start their difficult task with @ clean slate, and the enforced separations from the Service of the former employes should be considered without prejudice to themselves or to their records, But because Mr. Russell and Mr, King have won for themselves the reputed title of “enemies of the power trus' as inst the reputed title of’ “friend of the power trusts” held by Mr. Bonner, thé new commission- ers have exposed themselves to senate wrath and even to threats that their confirmations will be reconsidered. According to the theory behind the attack on the com- missioners, it was a wise step to let Mr. Bonner go, but @ betrayal of the public trust not to retain Mr. Russell ‘and Mr. King. Is this good reasoning? The ot power commission ; mission or omission in connection with Power companies. If Mr. Bonner’s friendliness to the Power trusts was enough to make his continued service with the commission inadvisable, the same reasoning could, and obviously .has been applied, in considering the inadvisability of continuing the services of Mr. Rus- sell and Mr. King, the “enemies” of the power compan- ies. The commission is a regulatory and quasi-judicial body. It would be reprehensible for it to begin its func- its work. with expert help of its own choice. for the practical considerations involved in the at- on the new commissioners, the threat to “recon- nominations is rather absurd.

These long hours resulted in crippled bodies and Vlapgge real ha — ie great improvement taken pl most civilized communities, there is much progress that could be made. There are still quite a few states and countries where the fourteen year age limit is not regulated by law, and not develop its full strength until the age of twenty-five. If during the grow- ing period the muscles are held in a cramped position, or used for eight or ten hours a day, it is found'to pro- duce a lopsided condition. Often dis- easés arise in immatured working children which can be directly traced to the occupation. For the body to develop properly it is necessary to have @ great variation of exercise during the day. Even school work, with the child sitting for ‘several hours @ day. in one position, may re- sult in certain physical handicaps, such as crooked spines or one should- er higher than the other. The chest tendency must be overcome by defi- nite periods of regular exercise, which fortunately is now compulsory in most schools. When for some reason it is necessary that a.child work, care and watchtulness should be used to see that the child is not strained, and there should be sufficient change in occupation and recreation to balance the task. Once the body has become deformed, it is practically impossible to. overcome baa harm done. The ‘re not readily changed once they have become set.

If you observe ‘any defects in your child, such as stooped or slouching Positions, flat chest or limping, you shouki-by all means see that the con- dition is corrected before it is too late.

We are just beginning to realize how im- portant the teeth are to the health. Dr. ‘McCoy will gladly answer personal questions on health and diet addressed to him, care of The Tribune. Enclose a stamped ‘addressed envelope for reply. Many children are unable to’proper- ly digest food because of bad teeth. Others ‘are poisoned by abscessed teeth, and may be nervous because of the teeth growing in improperly. Every child should be taken to the dentist once or twice ‘a year for an examination of the teeth. Defects in children should be cor- rected as soon as they are noticed, and any neglect to do this may irre- trievably injure the child’s health and chances for future happiness. No parent would do this intentionally, but unfortunately the best intentions in the world are valueless if vigilance is not constantly exercised. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Torticollis Question: B. D. writes: “I woula appreciate any suggestions or diet or treatment in a case of chronic tor- ticollis of long standing.” Answer: The treatment I have found most satisfactory for this con- dition is the use of a short orange Juice fast at intervals of about a month apart. Hot applications to the neck, or treatments with the deep therapy lamp or diathermy are also helpful. Osteopathic or chiropractic treatments along with the fasting and dieting regimen will also tend to has- ten a cure. Buttermilk Question: A. G. asks: “Would buttermilk be good in the case of in- flammation of the gall bladder?” Answer: An exclusive diet of but- termilk is sometimes effective in gall bladder disorders. About three quarts a day should be taken. The Cardoon Question: Mrs. B. asks: “What kind of a vegetable is a cardoon? Are there any special methods of growing or preparing it?” Answer: The cardoon is a plant Closely related to the French arti- choke, and is considered by many authorities to be the same plant slightly changed through the process of selection and cultivation. The plant is first blanched either in the field or under glass-covered pots. The midrib of the leaf is the part used. They may be cooked and served like any ordinary vegetable or used in salads. It has an agreeable flavor of its own. The most valuable of these plants are those with the thick- est midribs. Prunes Question: Mrs. H. D. asks: prunes contain acid?” Answer: Dried prunes do contain & small amount of acid, but not as much as the fresh prune plum. “Do former Ambas- Sador Alanson B, Houghton. * * It is good for religion that there should be some atheists, whether it is good for the atheists or not.—Arch- bishop of York. * ok If we want material results we must As a child he was sickly, but ex-| fulfill material conditions. — Rev.
