(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS «& BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Welcome, Teachers It is Bismarck’s privilege and Pleasure to again welcome to the Capital City the teachers of North Dakota, assembled in convention. Local committees and individuals aré prepared to do all in their power to make the stay of the visitors a pleasant one and to leave with them the impression that residents of the Capital City are interested in their activities and their welfare. For their business sessions, the teachers will find the aecommoda- tions of the new World War Memo- rial building and court house, coupled with the city auditorium, ideally suited to their needs. These facili- ties form the best arrangement for handling a convention which North Dakota ever has known. For their social enterprises, they will find in Bismarck’s citizenry a real spirit of helpfulness and hospi- tality. They will have an opportunity te learn far themselves why it is that, Bismarck, in addition to being the Capital City, is rapidly becoming known as a friendly city. But in addition to the affection which Bismarck always feels for the, ‘visitor, it hs a special interest in the teachers. It is they to whom is entrusted the direction and guidance of the chil- dren of the state during a large part of their waking hours. Upon them devolves the duty of pointing the way for questing young minds, Theirs is| the privilege and obligation of help- ing to mould the characters of the future citizens of the state. It is significant and praiseworthy that these duties are being discharged creditably and with discretion. Good teachers recognize the importance and responsibility of their positions: without seeking to over-emphasize the facts. By and large, as we look over the education field in North Dakota, we come to the conelusion that the av- etage teacher in this state is doing a| Pretty good job—sometimes under difficult and depressing conditions. Nowhere is there greater devotion to duty, a finer spirit of self-sacri- tige and a firmer adherence to the) ideal than among these folk who hold the lighted Jamp of education’ in their hands. Because of what they are doing as well as for what they are, therefore, Bismarck bids them a warm and hearty welcome. A Real Opportunity Tt may be ungallant to even admit che fact, but women, like men, are subject to the temptations of the ta- ble and occasionslly—only occasion- ally, of course—they find themselves dosing that sylph-like figure. ‘To those who are really in earnest in their efforts to combat the en- croachments which time makes upon us all, the physical recreation pro- gram for women to be offered at the department of public recreation is worth considering. It is helping to stimulate mascu- ine vigor and reduce masculine waistlines. It can do the same for the fair sex. have @ plan for carrying loa trucks on flat cars. Thus @ truck- load of freight would proceed from warehouse to consignee, just as any other truckload does—but the major part of its trip would be by raflroad. In such ways as these, very prob- ably, the railroads will eventually meet the competition of the trucks. And the ordinary citizen, who is in- terested both in prosperous railroads and in economical transportation, cannot do otherwise than rejoice. Russia in Movies The theatrical magazine, Variety, reports that Hollywood studies are preparing to concoct a number of movies dealing with Russia—and are doing it with a good deal of nervous- ness and uneasiness. It is the difficulty of steering a safe middle course that causes the hesitancy. On one hand, the stu- 50] dios have no desire whatever to issue films that could be construed as propaganda for the Soviets. On the other hand, their executives fear that if the pictures displease radical groups in this country the theaters that exhibit them may get into trou- ble. There is undoubtedly a tremendous amount of interest in this country in Russian affairs today. But the movie-makers are just experiencing what newspaper and magazine writ- ers, dramatists and novelists have gone through already; the extreme difficulty of presenting the truth in an interesting manner without being accused of »propagandizing for one side or the other. The Better Way It is better to prevent a crime than to punish someone for having com-, mitted it. And, on the same princi- ple, it is better to enforce a few basic laws than to pass new and restric- tive laws which are unenforcible, and serve only to make law-breakers of otherwise law-abiding citizens. This is a fact of which we seem to have lost sight in our passion for passing laws. Probably no other civ- ilized people are bound by so many legal restrictions as we are—and it is certain that no other civilized peo- ple are plagued by so much crime, or have so conspicuously failed in ap- prehending and convicting criminals. That is something legislators and voters might take into account when, the time for consideration of new laws comes again. President Hoover appoints a com- mittee to investigate naval questions as raised by William H. Gardiner, President of the Navy League, in an attaek on the president, but warns it away from questions of naval pol- icy and naval expenditures. To the average man it looks as though the only question left to be decided is whether or not President Hoover is “abysmally ignorant” of the navy’s needs and functions as Gardiner charged. Editorial Comment (Minneapolis Tribune) Tt was probably just ag much a shrewd piece of politics as it was a Mmagnanimous gesture that prompted Stanley Baldwin to announce that although the Conservative party has 472 of the 615 seats in the next house of commons, it will not try to run the government. It is almost conceded that the Conservatives will be given 12 of the 21 portfolios in the next cabinet. sonnel oars Mac- Donajd may e head of the gov- ernment but it is obvious that no measure which is not thoroughly sat- isfactory to the Conservatives will ever be enacted. Though @ program may be legislated by Conservative votes, it will be the head of the gov- ernment who will have to shouider most of the responsibility for any failure of that program. That raises the question, just what did MacDonald win in this ovet- whelmingly Conservative upheaval? When he split the Labor government: he was told that he had committed political suicide. His former enemies praised him for his political cour- age; his old friends cursed him for turning them out. He made a deci- sion; he took it to the people, and he won. It was a personal as well as) party victory that the election dem- onstrated when it returned the Na- tional government to power. But as Ramsay MacDonald sits down to contemplate that victory, wherein does it hold any great hap- piness for him? He reiterated in tne campaign that he was still a Labor party man. Now that he is outside the ranks in which he worked 580 long, what doses the future hold for him? Will he now part company with those political principles with which he has been so long identified, or will he stick to them and turn against the, very. mt he helped to elect?

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XIV SoyuaT young man, Spence? What are you talking about?” Mary eyed the old butler, fearful of what he might be about to re- veal, He looked so vindictive as he held Eddie's topcoat aloft and glared at it as if he would have liked to shake its owner. Under the stress of emotion, his usual West End English left him library fire, Early dusk had fallen because of the rain, and tea things sat disregarded on the table be- tween them. Spence, rendered completely agog by the possibility that he had brushed horns with a thief and murderer, was in and out on a variety of self-made errands, ears open to hear all that was said. He had guarded the portals better than he knew, and virtue shone as a gar- land on his grizzled brow. He was convinced already that he had met the brute in single-handed combat, and subdued him by the majesty of his person, alone. Mr. Jupiter, however, was slower to kindle over the idea. “You can’t be sure it’s the same coat,” he said. “If the man was a thief, would he try the front door?” He snorted disbelief. “It’s the same coat,” Spence re- affirmed stubbornly. “I’ve seen thousands of them in London, and not hajf a dozen in New York, sir. And {t's old, sir, and fair in threads v es, Struck me odd at the time, sir, a man in evening dress like that sir, wearing a dis- stacefy! coat like that—bessing your pardon, Miss Mary.” and the Cockney came out. “He had the face, if you'll be Heve it, Miss, to call himself a doc- tor, and try to force his way in.|. Yes! And when I told him. you'd neither invited him nor sent for him, that impudent he was he tried to walk past me into the ‘ouse! {£ put my ‘and up and I said ‘None o’ that, sir!’ I said—” “When was this, and who was it, Spence?” Mary demanded, impa- tiently. “It was the night of your party, Miss Mary,” the butler explained. “Of all them that came and asked to be let in without tickets, he was the freshest.” Obviously the mal parting jibe had left an indelible mark on the old servant's seers spot—his dignity. “Why he loo! at me as if he'd have like’ to do me in, tha: he did! But I thought as he might be a friend of yours, so I explained about the jewels and the need to keep out thieves. But did he take it like a gentleman would? He laughed, if you'll be leve it, and he called me an ‘old fool,’ he did, and sald ‘Mind you count the spoons!” His wrathful mimicry would have been funny if Mary had not been so preoccupied with the identity of that mysterfous visitor. “But who was it, Spence? My brother?” “Not your brother, Miss,” Spence explained teatily, “I told you as ‘ow ‘e Was a stranger, and no gentleman, either. ‘E had that coat on, as sure as I’m living, with the collar turned up about bis ears, like this.” © “Are you sure?” “Sure! When you come in like that, with that coat over you, it brought {t back to me as plain as if be was standin’ there.” “But this is Eddi coat, my brother's,” Mary told him excitedly. “Ob, Spence, would you know the man again if you saw him? Oh, do you see what this means?” She seized the surprised old servant by both arms and danced him around. “It means somebody else tried to get in, somebody else DID get in, and took the things and did it all, just as I sald! Not Eddie! Ob, Spence, you old latnb—why didn't you tell me this before?” ~. eee AE: ‘HEY were still talking it over hours later, Mary and Mr. Jupt- ter, across the little green baize ae ey “It's old, surely,” Mary agreed. “It was Dad’s and Eddie came into it when Dad died. It was big for him, but he needed it—times when he hadn't any other.” Mr, Jupiter remained silent. He was unconvinced, but he was ike ee La Mary continued eager- “T shouldn't have thought it same coat, myself, only that it was that very same night, and his trying so hard to get in, and being #o nasty about it, And Eddie's coat ‘was gone, somehow—lost or loaned or something. I'm sure of it, Mr. Bowen, the reporter, and 1 both heard Eddie say plainly when he was lying in the ambulance, ‘Make him give me back my coat’ And when Eddie came to meet me that day when—that day,” she swal- lowed hard and went on, “he had no coat on, just his blue suit, all mussed and wrinkled, And it was cold. I remember I wore my fur Jacket and nearly froze in that re- Dorter’s open car—" “But he didn’t get in, you say, Spence,” Mr, Jupiter turned to the butler. “Not by the front door, sir, that’s certain,” Spence agreed. “But.” he added with a side-giance at Mary, “the side door was opén.” “And how would he know that?” “He might just have tried it, sir, and found it open.” “Or mightn’t he have heard Ed- die telephoning me?” Mary put in. “Eddie knew all sorts of men, gamblérs and so on. Mr. Bowen ‘was telling me today there’s a race- track gambler they call The Fly, and he thinks Eddie meant bim when he was out of his head and mumbling. Only he wasn’t out of his head—he knew what he was saying. But he was weak, and wo wouldn’t Day attention. That’s what T believe!’ “Hold on,” Mr. Jupiter chided. “You're going pretty fast. You been seeing that reporter lately?” “Why, yes.” Mary was a trifle dashed, “I—I lunched with him today. He's making an investiga- tion on his own, and I've promised to hélp him.” “It's not his business, Kane's the man!” Mr, Jupiter's stick came down with a rap on the velvet car- pet, “But Kane's given up,” Mary argued. “He thinks same as you all do, That Eddie's guilty, or Poration previously had a contract for 50 vessels of 7,500 tons each at & cost of $50,000,000.

New York, Nov. 4—Notes from a convenient cuff: Whether it’s the trend of the times or a search for old-time novelties, there is an unusual bid this year for the “village” poet of yesteryear and for the little groups that used to sit over their black coffee discoursing on life and love. . . .

The obvious differ-| ning of the period when most wo: the thyroid and the sex glands, are related to the question of the dis- Posal of sugars and of fat. It is well recognized that among women as they gain maturity, as they have children, and as they ap- proach the period at the end of mid- dle age, there is a special tendency to change in weight. Men are, ig general, more active physically than women. They spend more time in the open air, eat more proteins and less sugars, and are less likely to search for reduction in weight just to look better. The commonest age for the beginning of overweight is ner in which the body disposes of the food that is taken in. It is well es- tablished that the glands of the body, including particularly the pituitary) ence-in these two cases is the man-| men tend to become fat. Further. more, it is the tendency of human beings to associate some striking oc: currence in their lives with the on: set of some physical change. Thus i? a child becomes paralyzed or show! signs of mental weakness, the par- ents are likely to associate this with an accidental fall from the high chair. Children who have developed infections of the bones or of the heart are usually blamed for eae been overactive or for having indulge: in some particular strain when the actual cause is perhaps a hidden in- fection in the tonsils or in the teeth, Of course, following childbirth, a woman is likely to rest much more than previously, and also to eat much more.

Why, what's that to do with it?” Mary asked aghast. eee ME JUPITER merely nodded wisely. “You'll see,” he said. “No, I won't say any more. It’s his affair and yours. You might be right, but you can’t prove it, and you'll only do yourself harm by stirring it up in the papers again. Better not Jet on to Emily Ruyther you've been seeing that reporter again. Shé’s trying her best to stop the talk, and you’re keeping it going.” “People are talking already, They don’t know anything for sure, and that’s why they're talking,” Mary persisted. “As long as I live, the whispering will go on. Unless thi is followed out to the bitter end, now, there'll always be a question- ‘mark hanging over my head. ‘What was that old story about her brother? Didn't he kill a woman and rob a house, or something?’ Nobody can prove it, but they'll be- lieve the worst. Even if it's hushed up, Especially if it’s hushed up, they'll think {t's true!” “Rot.

And I aim to leave you a penny or two, remem- ber, You'll be able to snap your fingers at ‘em, anyhow.” Mary shook her head stubbornly. “Nobody's going to stand sponsor for me, least of all the Ruythers. And as long as you think—what you do about my brother, I can't take a cent from you. You see that, don’t you?” “Don't be a fool!” the old man burst out. “Nobody blames you. You're not much Harkness, any- way. You're more like your mother, But your brother and his pa were two of a kind—tull of wild schemes to get money without working for it, Amd they both ended up under ground, and no wonder. You can’t tell me—” ‘ Mary jumped up, red spots burn- ing in both cheeks. fore Jupiter could stop her— he was instantly sorry for his out- burst—she had rushed from the room. When Dirk arrived, she had bathed away the traces of tears and quietness, a new determination, in her manner, Dirk saw nothing ami: They drew the shades against the rain, and sat a while before the fire, hand in hand, her head on his shoulder, wordlessly happy. Mary wished that it might always be like this, She dreaded speaking, for sooner or later what lay between them must be discussed. If only shé and Dirk could be married right away and go away from eve! t and everybody for a while! But in the meantime, what of the man who killed Eddie? At this very minute he was alive some where, eating, drinking, laughing, making love—she shuddered invol- untarily and Dirk’s arm tightened. “I called you but you weren't in,” he said. Loverlike, his tone was faintly accusing. Mary stirred out of his arms. With his words, the whole disturbing day came to life again. Well, better get it over. “1 saw Kane,” she said, <»wsli “Anything new?” Dirk reached except for if he {6n’t, what difference does it 2 lead. But it makes a + atin for a cigaret. a ~ “New—for me,” Mary said wryly. “He told me the truth, for once.” Dirk’s look was startled. “What did he say?” “Why, just that the investigation {sg being dropped. Everyone seems to think Eddie is guilty.” “I wouldn’t say that exactly,” Dirk said evenly, after a pause. % “Then why?” eee Te worrled look had come into his eyes again. Mery could have taken him into her arms and smoothed it away, but she held her- self aloof for his next words. “Don't you think yourself,” he asked, evading her eyes, “that it would be pleasanter to keep your name out of the headlines, just now?” It was true then. Was he speak- ing for his mother, or himself? “I’m sorry if it annoys you,” she said stiffly. “Don’t be huffy,” Dirk pleaded, drawing her back into the circle of ‘bis arm again. “You know what- ever you do is all right with me, always. But other people have no- ig| tions, Take mother, now.” “I wee,” said Mary. “She's old school, you know, and any unpleasantness reflecting on the family name goes right to her pride, It's all foolishness, of course.” “Then why do you cater to her?” “Because she’s my mother, I guess.” This should have been a clinching argument, Mary realized, but somehow it wasn’t. “I have a duty, too, to the Hark- ness name, such as it is,” Mary reminded him. “I'm afraid I must see it through.” Dirk kissed her fingers tenderly, his lps lingering on her ringed . third finger. “Surely it’s not necessary now,” he teased, gently. “A month more and you'll be Mrs. Dirk Ruyther. Had you forgotten?” . Mary hadn't. For several mo- ments they were oblivious of every- thing but that unbelievable fact. “You're not going to mind, are you, if Mr, Bowen and I follow up those clues he has?” Even as she recounted the news of the coat ex- citedly, she was aware that Dirk’s manner had hardened suddenly, that he was definitely angry now. “Don’t you know better,” he with measured, reproving accents, “than to talk to newspapermen?” “But surely.” Mary asked, gmazed, “Mr. Bowen’s harmless! Why, he’s done more to clear up the matter than anybody else—the Police, or you, or anybody.” “And why has he? For the sake of a story, that’s why!” Stumblingly, Mary tried to de fend her own estimate of Bowen. She felt that Dirk was unfair, but she did not know how to refute his charges, “Society, and millions, and a pretty girl!” Dirk went @n. “It that isn’t a perfect combination for Bim, I don’t know what is! And you let him drag you into it all over again, just when we'd got it stopped!” aE “Oh, s0 you did stop it?” “I did. And it stays stopped, if T have anything to say about it!” ‘They faced each other, breathing hard, Maty had not dreamed they, could ever quarrel like this. “It is not over for me.
