Possibilities Bismarck’s high school _ football team gave promise of considerab’ power and effectiveness in its first important game of the season Friday night against Minot. Outplayed in the first half, the team came back with sufficient vim and speed to win a comfortable vic- tory in the second part of the battle. and pool hall coaches may have their opinions about football and may disagree with! the men in charge. This is natural with a game which interests so many Side-line critics persons. And yet, followers .of the gridiron sport should remember that the af titude of the townspeople has a great’ deal to do with making victory pos- sible for the men on the football team, especially youths of high school ‘age. For instance, there is the matter Sonmi@ experts of over-confidence. believe Bismarck might have won state title last fall had it not been for this fault in its pre-game prep- aration for the contest at Fargo. ‘The tendency to feel a little too sure.of himgelf is characteristic a ‘boy who has tasted success and| sometimes it isthe best possible thing that could happen to have the conceit knocked out of him.

Such events create tod much comment and arouse too much excitement to be ignored||_ in the public prints, Perhaps the best solution of the Police of St. Paul. They captured the kidpap.gangs .and announced the fact. It should have the tendency to curtail kidnaping operations. When other criminals meet the same fate the newspapers will, be only too glad to publish the details of society's victory over the under- world. Speeding and Danger Studies carried on by psychologists of Ohio State university under the auspices of the National Research Council show that the slow automo- bile driver manages to get involved and whether this is simply because there are more of him, or because there is something inherently dan- gerous about slow driving, it isbound to be of interest to motorists every- where. One reason, as the psychologisis Point out, is that a truly competent driver tends to travel faster than @ poor one; and the poor one, plodding along at what he conceives to be a safe pace, manages nevertheless to get into accidents which a better driver would avoid. Chiefly, however, the study is in- teresting as a demonstration of the fact that mere speed, by itself, is not necessarily dangerous. A good driver, hitting a 45-mile clip, can be far less of a menace to public safety than a poor one whose car does not go over 25 miles an hour all the way, 4 of IN Secretary Hyde and the governors of three northwest states evidently fought a draw on the question of drouth loan regulations. The argu- ment which has raged during the last few days in Washington was on pe- culiar grounds, in that the secretary contended the action sought by the executives would help’ the bankers and not the farmers. The governors insisted that the farmers would get no help from the loans unless the regulations were loosened. The compromise finally arrived at suggests that there must have been some truth on both sides. Ne t- Thomas A. Edison, perhaps the greatest American of our time, lies dying and the manner in which he bows toward the grave should teach @ lesson to the rest of us. To the last he is a persistent fighter. The same tenacity with a| which he attacked a scientific prob- lem serves him now that conscious- ness ig vanishing and little but the will to live remains. We can learn a great. deal from Edison's life but no nobler or grander one than that which is available to us as we watch his last gallant strug- gle. of boomed for appointment to her late husband’s post in the United States senate.

Publication of the capture of these ctiminals by the newspapers shou! have tthe tendency to deter any oth- ers who might try the same thing. Surely, the record from the stand- point of the crook. is none too good. Two kidnap cases and two rings of Kidnapers broken doesn’t speak well for either the safety or the profits of the kidnaping business. By giving due prominence to this fact the newspapers may, in part, help to answer the questions which are continually raised about the so- cial justice of printing criminal news. Editors have their doubts about at times and sometimes items are eliminated or “played down” because of the possible effect which publica- tion might have on unmatured minds.

Presi- dent Hoover has condemned the prac- tice and this statement from a leader in the admifiistration is considered gress. Short selling is probably not an unmixed evil.

I tell you I've come for my baby—!” 3 The man at the far desk had come forward. Everybody in the room was eyeing Norma. “Perhaps I'd better talk to her,” the man said quietly. With a nod toward Norma he said, “Will you come with me?” Mrs. Carey clutched the girl's arm. They went through another door, following the man. It was.a smaller office. The man dropped into the desk chair and waved Norma and Mrs. Carey to seats, “Now then,” he said, “what it you're so ex about?” . MA and Mrs. Carey tried to talk.at once. In the end it was the older. woman who got out the more coherent‘story. The man lis- tened silently, nodding occasion- ally. When he understood what they were trying to tell him he Dushed an electric desk button. A sirl appeared at the door. “Bring ‘Miss Clinton's report,” he told her. In a moment. the girl was back with some cards. She laid them on the desk and departed. ;.-“Now™'then,” satd ‘the ~socfal worker, after studying these cards, “Pm sorry to tell you, Mrs. Travers, | that you can’t take your son home this evening.

Your child is being given excellent care but it is impossible for you to seo him. There is nothing for you to worry. about. We have the in- fant’s welfare at heart and yours too.” “I won’t go!” Norma cried hotly. “I won't go until you let me have Mark! You've no right to take him away from me. "You've no right—!” The hysterical outburst lasted several minutes.: At the end of that time Mrs. Carey found herself in the. corridor with ..the sobbing Norma in her arms. “We'll go home.” Mrs. Carey tried to make her voice consoling. “We'll go home, honey, and come back tomorrow!

You need a lawyer who knows how to-go after such things. I’m going to call Bob this minute!” She ran downstairs. Ten minutes later she was back to report. “Bob's coming over right away. I caught him just as he got in the house. He sald he'd start right away.” eee ‘ALF an hour later—and for the third time—the story was re- viewed for Farrell’s benefit. Mrs. Carey was called in and the young man questioned her, She and Chris had poured forth aympathy for Norma and berated the welfare de partment. Bob's attitude was quite differ. ent. Norma's face was red and swollen from weeping but she was dry-eyed now. Her lips pressed to- gether in a line that strove to re main firm. Eyeing the girl soberly, Farrell said: “We've got to get at what's back of this thing, Norma, It’s not the welfare department, you know. They have plenty to do without going out of their way for work. Of course when a complaint’s made, as they told you, they have to go after it. Now who do you suppose made that complaint?” “I don’t know!” “It’s someone who evidently has & grudge. Spite work, most likely.” “Who could want to hurt Norma?” Chris asked indignantly. .. “Well, that’s the first thing: to find-out! I know a couple of fellows in the City Hall,” Farrell went on speculatively, “who might know something. I'll tell you what I'll do,.Norma! I'll get to work tomor- tow. Mark’s all right. You don't need to worry about that. And We're going to get him back!” He telephoned at noon next day. Norma was at the office. He prom- ised to call for her at five o'clock. “Yes, I've found out a few things.” Farrell said. “Tell you about it when I see you.” The girl cheered slightly, but the afternoon hours dragged. A few minutes before five o'clock Bob ar- rived. Norma put on coat and hat and they left the office. “Tell me what you've found out!” she begged. “Wait until we get into the car,” Farrell said. “Wo can’t talk here.” He was not willing to open the subject until they were out of down- town traffic and driving along a quiet side’ street. Then, without looking at the girl, Farrell said: “I found out s lot of things, Norma. .I think I know. who engi- neered that business yesterday. I think I know who's back of it.” “Who?” “The Travers family! And I'll tell you what else I found out, They mean to. fight the thing, Norma, They're after the boy.” “But Bob! Oh, how can they? There {sn't any way they could take him from me, is there? Oh, there can’t be!” Farrell was still eyeing the road, “I don’t like to say this, Norma. There {s a way. Yes! But if you feel the way I think you do—it you're willing to go ahead,with it— I know a way you can fight them!” (To Be Continued) Seldom does the gangster element éneak under the gate, as it once did % * # Nor will Harlem be off the map.
