Depression Aids Canada The hard luck of Europe seems to be the good luck of Canada America had watched the European conflagration raging and yct, when} the time came when it was forced) to take up arms, it had very few arms’ to take up. ‘The responsibility for this must,! necessarily, lie with the army gen-| eral staff which controlled the des-| tinies of our military organization.! The efficiency, or rather the woeful, lack of efficiency, which it demon-| at the door of the present person-| nel of the high military command. In the event of war it would have| the privilege of making its own} record. | But the resident of North Dakota, | watching such activities of the gen- eral staff as come within his ob- servation, may well wonder if the| country would not be even worse off than before in the event of another disaster such as overtook America| in 1917, Mothers whose sons are, or will be, of military age, might do well to think about the situation] which would develop in the event of hostilities. i We, living here on the fertile prai- ries of a great state, see an unknow-| ing and apparently unthinking mill-! tary organization in Washington order away the troops from Fort Lin- coln.

But the person who likes to think} of America as secure from aggression because of the strong arms of her sons, wonders what sort of military) Policy it is which could countenance! 40 monstrous a blunder. | In the nature of things, the gov- ernment does not and cannot mobil-| ize enough regulars in any important spot to adequately protect it in time of war. The whole theory of na- tional defense in this country has been based on the idea of a citizen soldiery. The chief impetus toward interesting the citizen in the military affairs of his country is the military training camps which are organized each summer. In addition to teach- ing something of the routine of mili- tary life, they inculcate in the stu- dent a sense of the obligation which each one of us .owes. to. his coun-; try. They sow the seed, the fruit! of which is defense of the nation} in time of stress. | Removal of troops from Fort Lin- ©oln and the consequent abandon- ment of the military training activ- itles here, would make it seem that the war department disagrees with) the rest of the nation on this point. One pictures its leaders, proud of; their rank and authority, protecting the nation’s interests by the sheer Power of their brains and personality. But it didn’t seem that way back! in 1917 and 1918, when the country ‘was in danger. And it didn’t seem that way to the People of North Dakota when they counted the lists of dead and in- jured and found that, of all the states in the union, this state had a larger percentage of dead and wounded, in proportion to the num- ber of men engaged, than any other.

Reducing County Taxes (Devils Lake Journal) A concerted move appears to be getting under way throughout Ram- taxes, and tomorrow the county com- missioners will be presented with] = Several petitions urging drastic re- ductions in the budget for the com- ing year. Throughout the state such moves! have already. been crystallized into! concrete action, with the result that most of the county boards of the state have announced reductions in their budgets, meaning, of course, a reduction in taxes. One of the items which the people have urged county commissioners to cut for the com- ing year is that of road building, while some counties have recom- mended the elimination of the county agent. E The Ramsey county commission some time ago announced a reduc- tion of about $25,000 in the roads| # and bridges fund, but the opinion now prevails that if the city commis- reduce their budgets for a total of about $30,000, the county. budget could be pared much more.

Liane found herself in the pcsition of many another youthful bride. She had time on “Yeah, I know. ... “He's off about seven minutes be- fore his next number.” her hands and virtually nothing to do. At first it was pure luxury to have her tray brought in morn- ings, her bath drawn.for her, and the waole, long day before her free of engagements. Clive went to his office early and returned rather late. The man who had been in charge cf the estate for years had lately suffered a nervous breakdown, Clive found things at sixes and sevens. Ho was a man of busi- ness at last, much to his mother’s satisfaction. But there were no more leisurely drives, no friendly tea parties and shopping expedi- tions. Clive seemed to Liane older, graver, increasingly silent, She would dawdle through her mornings. Perhaps she would order the car around and go shop- ping. Some days she lunched with her mother. Week-ends she and Clive usually spent at Willow Stream. Here a suite was turned over for their use. But mostly Liane was conscious of the treme idleness of her existence. Sho bogan to feel a certain futility about her days. If they had taken a'house and she had -been ab- sorbed in the fascinating business of furnishing it she might not have tasted the boredom of the rich woman. One day Muriel’s high, impera- ‘Tis funny.” ong of those rabbit warrens on the East Side. Chuck wants to see you both. How about Thurs- day?” Liane said they would be de- lighted. She was excited at the prospeet of seeing Muriel again. She forgot her resentment of a few months before. Muriel seemed more likable since she had mar- ried her peuniless writing man. She told Clive about the invita- tion. He said abstractedly, thought you didn’t like her.” Liane smiled. “I didn’t now and then. She rather snubbed me. But she’s fun really. We needn't go if you mind.” “I don’t mind. If you'd enjoy seeing them of course we'll go.” eee SHE togk great pains with her appearance the evening of the dinner party. When Clive came into the living room of their suite, she stood in the doorway, smiling at him. “All ready?” Liane was in white and asil- ver, the silk cunningly cut and contrived to make her slim figure alluring. She wore her pearls, The diamond bracelet glittered at her wrist. “We're dining at what time?” “Seven-thirty. Muriel said to be punctual. Her cook is tempera- mental.” They descended in the elevator, ‘They were still at the Bleeckman, having decided not to take an apartment until after their trip to the far east. “You look charming.” Clive's tone was formal. “I like that frock.” “Thank you. would.” She turned her eyes to his with innocent coquetry. Hastily he reached for a cigaret. “What's that perfume you're wearing?” “Mimosa. D'you like it.” “Very much. It’s sophisticated for you.” She smiled. “Don’t you think I’m sophisticated?” “IT hadn't noticed it.” “Wall, I'll learn. time.” She leaned nearer to glance at the sign on the street light. “Oh, I do believe he’s taken the wrong street.” Her hair just brushed Clive’s check, With one abrupt movement, he swept her into his arms. His grasp was hard, compelling. Liane felt his lips on hers, de- ber ndizg. She struggled in his D. ‘You try me too hard, d’you hear?” Those were the words she heard. As suddenly as he had seized her, he Jet her go. “I’m sorry. Forgive me. I forgot myself.” She was breathing hard. She put her hand to her lips. “Oh, ob, you hurt me.” She was whim- pering, like a child who has been itened.

She managed to smile, By the time they reached the ‘I| apartment building in which the young Desmonds lived she was quite composed again. Muriel met them in a flurry of silver tissue and a scent of wood smoke. They were ushered into a small room, crowded with rare furniture and good prints. A long table in one corner was brave with lace and what their hostess airily told them were five-cent dishes. Her candle sticks were Georgian silver, her finger bowls were from Wool- worth’s. A Chuck appeared presently, smil- ing and at ease in shabby dinner clothes, They all sat down and a clumsy mulatto in a dubious apron stumbled in and out with delectable food. Mushroom soup which could not have been bet- tered at Delmonico’s in the old days. Little birds cooked to the color of strained honey. Peas green as lettuce and salad in a Ming bowl. Ices and coffee strong enough to stand alone. “You do yourself well, Mrs, Desmond,” said Clive ‘in mock amazement. Muriel was casual. “I've learned to cook. Hepsy is teaching me and what she doesn’t know I do. Together we manage very well.” It was odd to see the air of matronliness, of satisfaction, sh wore. ~ “These things were grand- mother’s,” she said, waving at the chairs, the graceful 1 tables. “She left them to me and they were all in storage. Mother per- formed as usual when she heard I was taking them, Tried to stop me.” Chuck watched her as she chat- tered, his expression a mixture of pride and amusement. “She’s cute, isn’t she?” asked them both. They agreed with him. Indeed there was a softness; a bloom about this new Muriel. Liane felt old and staid, tired and disil- lustoned, beside her. On the way home Clive was stiff, silent. “I can’t ask you to forgive me for behaving so bad- ly,” he caid at length. “It was un- pardonable.” Ligne did not answer. He saw she was crying. “Oh, Lord, I am making a mess of iti” he cried, “I was a fool to think we could make this work.” She checked the childish tears. “You weren’t and we can make it work.” She faced him-staunchly. oe @ BACK in the apartment Chuck lounged in a big chair.

She -aised her mouth for a kiss. “That worry you much?” “Nah-uh."” It seemed to satisfy her. “Fuany,” she murmured after a moment. “I thought Van was cuz- razy for her once, but he seemed to lose interest.” Chuck glowered. drag him in?” Her giggle was infectious. ing jealous on me?” “I might if it weren't for my lofty nature.” He stood up, dump- ing her unceremoniously to the floor. “Got to see a man.” She looked at her wrist watch. “Chuck Desmond, if you're going out at 12 o'clock I’m trailing along.” He pretended anger. assignment I tell you.” She stuck out Ker tongue at him. “Try and stop me!” On clicking high heels she vanished into the bedroom, reappearing with a coat on her arm. “No two- timing in this house, baby.

We're going to the Fifty Club to see Martone. You'll like that.” “Golly, the bucket of blood man! We do have fun.” She trotted along, taking two steps to his one. At the corner he hailed a taxi. ‘Woman, you're my most ex- pensive juxury. First you make me buy a new hat and change my shirt omy day. Now you force me to take taxis. You should have married a millionaire or else wear Cuban heels.” “Shush, Yo'all talks biggety, Mister Man, but yo’s skeered o’ me.” : They chortled ‘foolishly.
