(Official City, State and County \ Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEWYORK BOSTON Guiding Youth’s Joy If Lucile Marsh, writing in a cur- rent number of The Parents’ Maga- zine, knows her statistics, the so- called younger generation isn't hav- ing a very good time at its parties. She says that the modern dancing party is a bore to 85 per cent of the boys and a tragedy to 90 per cent of the girls. Furthermore, parents and teachers are to blame. They have let situa- tions develop which make it possible for an alarming number of Cinder- ellas to sit along the wall. To be dubbed a wallflower is the worst heart-break that can come to @ girl. To smile when the smile is something more than a frozen mask that is likely to slip off at any min- ute... to talk to the hostess and pretend that you like talking to her «+. to gaze into space quite as though you would much rather think your own thoughts than be Passing from one pair of arms to an- other, caught up in the rhythm of music and dreams and boys who whisper gay and foolish things... . Most girls would rather face a fir- ing squad than brave the ordeal. But the boys have their side of the story, too. Sometimes they have been told at home and school that they are awkward and clumsy. Rather than risk making themselves; conspicuous they stand around, let- ting their collars grow tighter and tighter. ‘When they do outgrow that bash- ful stage they are informed that Mary is a flop, Edna is a washout, Ellen is a back number. But Sally and Jane are hot stuff. Boys refuse to risk the ridicule that comes from being stuck with an unpopular gril. When such a thing does happen, now and then a younz gentleman will dangle a five-dollar Dill before the stag line, trusting to the lure of the money to remove the girl from his arms when she has been parked overtime. If parents would exercise a wise guidance over their children’s social life’ such situations would never arise. A mother, instead of thinking that she has behaved nobly when she has; ordered’ pink ice cream and frosted cakes for her six-year-old son's first birthday party, should see that every child in the group has a good time and gets as square deal. Parents must cooperate in this spirit of group consciousness if they want their chil-| dren to be happy. All pleasure should be spontane- ous. Especially that of youth. It isn’t fair to make boys and girls pay the piper when they can’t dance to the tune he plays. Life Insurance at Home and g Ab Tt is interesting to compare the amount of life insurance in force in the United tSates with that of other countries. Where we have more than $95,000,000,000, the United King- dom has about $11,500,000,000; Can- ada, $5,700,000,000; Japan, $3,700,- 000,000; Germany, $3,300,000,000; Australia, $2,300,000,000; Sweden $1,- * 158,000,000. Other European coun- tries, such as Italy, France and Hol- land, are below the billion-dollar mark. The insurance in force in the Uni- ted States, as compared with any other nation, is likewise far greater on ® per capita basis. Great Bri- tain’s population of 47,300,000 is more set the danger of want for them- selves and their dependents, we necd have little to fear for the years to come. Ninety-five billions in life in- surance on American citizens is a splendid stepping stone of progress. We'll Hear Wails It takes no prophet to forecast the j Wail of protest which will go up from Washington if the present congress does much more slicing of the nature performed on the agricultural depart- ment supply bill. When the house appropriations committee lopped $10,799,000 off the .00 | recommendations of the federal bud- get commission it started something which will bring joy, to many Ameri- cans if not to those employes and others who may be adversely affected. 2.50/This action sets a precedent which the congress will do well to follow on other matters to come up later. It is pleasant to see the nation’s lawmakers getting back to fundamen- tals. Too many people have too long held the idea that the government owes them something, whereas the view of the founders of the country was that the obligation which really existed was that of the citizen to- ward the government. In this country, government is the child of citizenship. Whether it is a well-trained and obedient child or a wasteful, extravagant and domineer- ing one depends upon the training given it by the parent. The citizen, like the parent, has only himself to blame if the child goes wrong. Reaping the Whirlwind The Illinois state supreme court the other day added a final foot- note to ex-Mayor Thompson's at- tempt to eradicate British prona- ganda from Chicago's schoolrooms,. when it disbarred John J. Gorman, former corporation counsel in -Chi- cago, for not conforming to stan- dards of the legal profession. Gorman prosecuted ex-Mayor Thompson's ouster suit against Wil- liam McAndrew, the superintendent of schools whom Thompson accused of being “a paid agent of the Brit- ish crown.” In prosecuting the case, Gorman called the well-known his- torian, David Saville Muzzy, 9 “propagandist,” and his textbook was “unfit for use in public schools’— remarks for which he later apologized. The disbarment proceedings were brought against Gorman by the Chi- cago Bar association because of his handling of the McAndrew ecasc; and the supreme court's action will prob- ably be the final chapter in one of the most grotesque and contemptible stories in American municipal po- litics. When Charlatans Flourish A writer in the January issue of Harper's Magazine points out that the takings of the fortune tellers do not seem to have been hurt in the least by present conditions. In fact, he adds, there is evidence to show that astrologists, numerologists and others of that variety have made more money during the past year than in mofe prosperous times. _ The reason probably is not very hard to find. In good times the aver- age mortal is content to go his way and take things as they come with- out worrying much. But when times are hard, he has a frantic desire to) know what lies ahead of him. Un- able to find out by ordinary methods, he tries the mumbo-jumbo artists. Of course, to do this he spends; money he can ill afford. But his ec- tion, after all, is perfectly natural.

Mr. Johnson’s Good Job (New York World-Telegram) The country is indebted to Senator Hiram Johnson, of California, for the intelligence and courage he is show- ing in the investigation of American loans and concessions in Colombia. Mr. Johnson; standing virtually alone, is bucking the combined powers of the state department, the New York bankers, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and the Mellon Gulf Oil Co. In addition, Mr. Johnson has to op- erate through a largely hostile com- mittee run by the wily and reacti ary administration wheelhorse, Sena- tor Reed Smoot. If Mr. Johnson does nothing more than uncover the conspiracy of silence which the state department always throws around its hand in interna- tional finance he will accomplish a lot. For many years some state de- partment officials have tended to op- erate as though they were servants of banks and oil companies rather than of the American public. Indeed, some of these officials— such as J. Herbert Stabler—have changed their employment almost from year to year from the state de- it to banks or oil companies, back to the state depart- arid then back again to the pri- vate interests. Mr. Johnson, by cross-examination, and tl THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JANUARY 21, 1932 New York, Jan. 21.—Few theater stars, however, famed, manage to end their days in luxury. Even the most celebrated of the old-timers, whose incomes were large, wind up as “farewell tour” troupers in their declining years. David Warfield is reputed to be the richest actor in the world. In re- tirement for many years, his for- tune has been swelled by shrewd in- vestments. He is said to have ac- cumulated about $10,000,000. Only a small part of this, however, was nett- ed by his stage income. He had in- terest in early moving picture projects and for years has been on the board of one of the major film concerns. A wraith-like old man now, victim of an illness that once brought him to the brink of death, Warfield still enjoys the gay and decorative ap- Parel affected by so many players. He was once credited with having the greatest assortment of fancy ties to be found anywhere on the globe. shopping was done for years in @ certain Uttle shop which catered to his tricky tastes. Ties of elaborate reds and purples were purchased by the dozen and gross. Many of these he never donned, buying them be- cause of his love of color. Tricky vests were eae: a te specialty. * Harold Lloyd, the movie clown who has not been heard from in quite a while, was smart enough to lay aside @ neat fortune for the future and is neck-and-neck with Harry Lauder for second place in the stage millionaire group. ‘The extent of Lauder'’s fortune is STICKERS SEAMS e@eccece , @e0e0ee 10 eecc50e i. ,DEATH Can you convert the word CRIME to DEATH in 1! steps by ing one lete ter in each step? Only English words may be used. not known, but it runs into the mil- lions. The Lloyd bank account has been placed at $3,000,000. Al Jolson once ranked with the heavy money lads and was rated as high as $5,000,- 000. But he took heavy losses in the stook market and just about rates the | millionaire class now. Eddie Cantor {also took a heavy sock on the chin from Wall Street, but made quite a bit of it back laughing about it. He is now fast stepping toward the finan- cial peaks. Not so many years ago Tom Meigh- ; an was-ranked as an outstanding man background for several years and his fortune has dwindled. ‘When Maude Adams went on her recent tour, it was whispered about New York that she needed the money. |@nce among the wealthiest of the |@reat performers, she spent fortunes on electrical experiments, gave gener- ously to church societies and private charities. She was rumored as getting close to the end of her fortune when she returned to the stage. x KOK Tyrone Power, following a Shake- Spearean tour, was out in Hollywood on a picture when death suddenly ended his career. Otis Skinner, in spite of his years, took to the tfring routine of a road tour, although his circumstances are reported as com- fortable. William Gillette, who lives in a castle-like home outside New York, returns from time to time for “pin money.” His pet toy is a minia- ture railroad that winds in and out of his grounds and is a plaything that has delighted hundreds of guests. George Cohan, though in the mil- lionaire class, has never ceased his activities. The theater has become too great a part of his life to desert it. _FLAPPER, FANNY SAYS: of wealth, but he hes been ir the; He is not likely to retire for many a year—if ever. E. H.

HOT ICE BOX Miami, Fla—Can you imagine an ice box getting hot enough to catch on fire? Well, one here did, and two fire engines were called out in the early morning to subdue the flame.

She closed her eyes and bit fat her lower lip, trying not to moan with the surging pain of relief. It had been only a mad nightmare. She was loved. Phil loved her, There was no loneliness, no fear. He would be with her soon, and his arms would hold her in strength and safety, and his lips would give her all of life again. Cecily’s voice, still laughing, was urging her to open it. She could laugh now. Laugh forever and al- ways—she and Phil together. She put the box on the table, and as her fingers tugged at the bow she thought that everything could be explained—or forgiven. It was s0 easy to forgive. _ Cecily said, “Oh, Ann—the beau- thes, the beauties! And smell ’em!” Ann, at last, let the air out of her tightened lungs, and it made a queer, suffering sound as she said, “He shouldn't have—" because there Phil had remembered how she loved them and had got them and gent them to her—all the water lilies in the world. ‘She reached for the card.
