It is often said that we need wise leadership in these complicated times. That is quite true; but wise leader- ship is powerless unless those whom it is to lead know what it is all about. Humanity has seldom had quite as many chances to go rushing down a steep place into the sea as it has to- unless we of the rank and file keep mentally abreast of the times, Old Saws But Good Teéth Somebody who studied the proverbs and sayings of many different nations discovered that a large proportion of these old mottoes are on the subject of thrift. ‘“Penny-wise and pound- foolish,” “Burning the candle at both ends,” “To kill the goose that lays the golden egg”—you can think of dozens of them. And you'll find them in all languages. Now these old say- ings arose back in ancient days and have become familiar to us all be- cause, they have been used and quoted so many millions of times. And they clearly show that our ancestors paid) @ good deal of attention to thrift— even though all their circumstances and standards of living were differ- ent from those of today. Thrift seems to be a deeply rooted habit in a lot of us. It is a significant thing, therefore, | that the life insurance men of the Missouri Slope, who met here re- cently and discussed their business, contended that they really are agen- cies for a policy of constructive thrift in every family. Their view of themselves is that they are giving modern application to all of the sage sayings which we learned when children; that they are Promoting constructive thrift among the people who buy life insurance policies, a Inevitably, they call attention to the uncertainties of life and the prospec- tive rainy day. By so doing they emphasize the need for thrift regara-! less of whether their argument ac- quires a new “risk” for the company they represent. They know that by selling thrift they are promoting their business and they employ the wise old saws with still sound teeth to help them. Innocuous Exploring One of our oldest illusions crashed with @ fearful thud the other day when Dr. Roy Chapman Andrews, who collects dinosaur eggs and such- like in the Gobi desert, told an} audience in New York that the ex- plorer who comes back from the ends of the earth with a wild tale of great dangers met and surmounted is prob- ably a pretty poor sort of explorer. Modern equipment, Dr. Andrews explained, has taken most of the risk out of the explorer’s job. A really competent explorer, thus, can go where he wants to go and see what he wants to see without having more than a very few moments of real danger. “Hardships-.and adventures,” he added, “are nuisances to explorers.” Dr. Andrews ought to know, if any- one does. But it really seems too bad. If one can't find hair-raising adventure by going exploring, what is this world coming to, anyhow?

Removing the State Capital (Devils Lake Journal) Again the question of removal of the state capital from Bismarck to Jamestown is commanding the atten- tion of the people of the state, and again is heard on all sides strong op- Position to such removal. It would prove a tremendous drain on the taxpayers’ pocketbook if such removal should take place. Moreover what would become of the two hun- dred or so homes owned in Bismarck by state employes? Surely if the cap- ital were moved these homes would Prove worthless, because Bismarck is really built around the capitol, and were it moved the people would find themselves in the position of killing one city jn the state merely to build r gee 38 IEEE & g day.

New York, Feb. 5—In the mid- Forties on Broadway stands a young gent wearing upon his back a sign that informs the passing millions! that they “must have vitamins for health.” He wears a most bizarre costume to} catch the eye. Once this is achieved, the sandwich sign of a cafe tells about the vitamin contents of its meals, But what's ironic about all this is that in order to eat and get food with or without vitamins, this ballyhoo- man of caloric content had to take this job standing on a curbstone. He hadn't had steady work in months. He head grabbed food in breadlines, and the vitamin measure } of this was highly questionable. So he’s temporarily grateful to vitamins; otherwise, he might be hungry. * * “Kosher” crackers now enjoy na- They have become one of the larger sales items on the list of a huge cracker and cookie manu- facturing concern. When the idea was suggested, just a couple of years ago, they laughed. But the young man with the idea pointed out the large Jewish population of New York. Wherewith, by way of experiment, a rabbi was hired to supervise the man- ufacture. The Manhattan East Side and Bronx sections showed consid- erable interest. Today millions are sold, through special distribution, and several rabbis are on hand for inspec- tion purposes. ee 8 Celebrities and _near-celebrities line is delivered and the dazed visitor is informed that for so-much-pere copy he can get a “swell write-up.” Whereupon a photographer walks in, snaps a picture and walks out. The swooning newcomer is then informed that if the “write-up” isn’t wanted, then the foreigner certainly should have a set of newspaper prints handy to give the press boys when they show up. The “rush-act” is used chiefly on artists, musicians, movie folk and others who haven't learned their way around New York but who are, natur- ally, going to want to please the press and get their names in the papers. ee * Attention was attracted to the ac- tivity of the slick gents when, upon his last visit, Einstein, the great sci- entist, mentioned an experience in telling tales of his American adven- tures to a friend. If they go after Einstein, obviously no one is immune. (Copyright, 1932, NEA Service, Inc.)

John McLennan, 70, former Presbyterian pastor at Glencoe, and for many years a resident of Bis- marck, died Dec. 1 at his home at Portland, Ore., according to informa- tion received this week by friends here. Death was caused by heart dis- ease, following a short illness. Sur- viving him are his wife and three daughters and two sons, all residing in Portland.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XLIII M®. HILL was sitting in a wicker chair on the front porch reading the evening paper. ¥rmintrude was on the steps with a book in her lap. Mr. Hill and Uncle Chaney were in the yard bending over the lawn mower, which was turned upside down be- tween them. The four persons, and the green lawn, and the white house, and the pink rose hedge composed neatly into an attrac- tive picture of suburban home life. Nothing seemed lacking, Mrs. Hill looked over the edge of her paper, and smiled and stood, and held out her hand, and said, “Good evening, Miss Fen- wick. I'm so glad to see you. Take this chair, won't you? Honey, bring out another chair for mother.” 9 “No, thank you,” Ann said. “I can’t stay. I’m in a hurry, rather. I came for Mary-Frances.” “Mary-Frances?” Mrs. Hitt questioned, more it she had never heard the name before than as if Ann had said she had come for Bonnie Prince Charile. “Yes. I want her to come home with me.” “But, Miss Fenwick, Mary-Fran- ces isn’t here, She hi ba here since this afternoo: “Ob,” said Ann flatly, not as an exclamation, “Byt—she said @ was coming here.

Ann leaned close. “She says,” she con- strued for Mrs. Hill, “that, in a way, she does.” “That's enough of that, now, Ermintrude. You will please an- swer at once, Where is Mary- Frances?” Ermintrude moistened her lips. She swallowed. “I—well, I guess I couldn't help it, could I? She sloped.” “Sloped? Sloped?” said Ann, hunting a place for it, seeking a definition, pushing her fingers through her hair, “E-loped,” pronounced Ermin- trude distinctly. “E-loped off with a man.” Ann took Ermintrude by the shoulders and shook her, not hard but back and forth. “No, no, no, no. She couldn't. She’s a baby. She couldn’t. Why do you say such a thing? No, no—" Mrs. Hill went down the steps and put an arm around Ann. “Don't, dear,” she said. “Joe,” she called, across the lawn. “Joe —come here. Joe. Come. Come quickly—Joe.” . Joe came bounding. He ex- pected to put out the fire, to grab the murderer and robber, and to rescue his wife and his daughter. In 17 years of married life only once before had he heard Trudie’s voice go insane. eee (0s her way home, in Mr. Hill's car, Ann listened to him tell- ing her again that if Mary-Fran- ces and that dirty cur were at Bluemount there would be no damage done as long as they man- aged to keep it out of the papers. It her sister Cecily and her friend found the child at Bluemount, he did hope they would follow his ad- vice and simply bring her home and let the man go. It would be the only way to avoid publicity, and publicity must be avoided. She said, “Yes, Mr. Hill, Barry and Cecily thought so, too,” and Ustened to what Ermintruge had aid a few minutes before. “No, they weren't ‘going to get married for a while. He couldn’t, on account of his father’s will. I don’t Know. Several months she sald. They were just going on their honeymoon and then on the stage. I guess it will be all right.

Epidemiologists who keep track of the incodence of. dis- ease find that the common cold is far more frequent during the le weather in spring and early winter than at other seasons. One of the statisticians of a large life insurance company found that a sudden drop of 10 degrees in the temperature brought an increase of 18 colds per week among 6700 employes in the office. ‘Vast numbers of people who are fairly good observers of their own condition are convinced that their colds begin when there is some sud- den strain on their heat regulating mechanism.

Jordan of the Uni- versity of Chicago indicated that 90 per cent of colds occur at a time when there is less ventilation both in public and in private dwellings and s greater tendency to overcrowding. will head the committee. Other mem- bers are to be named at a later date. “Many of us have long sought to Dakota to the end that we may de- velop a strong state poultry show that truly will represent the ,best breeders from all parts of the state,” said Tornbom. Health Head Should Draw Undertaker Rule Rules governing undertakers should be formulated by the State Health department rather than the state Board of Embalmers, according to an opinion by Attorney General Morris. The opinion was furnished to Dr. A. A. Whittemore, state health officer, in connection with rules and regula- tions of the State Board of Embalmers submitted to the Attorney General by Dr. Whittemore. Morris ruled that provisions relat- ing to undertakers should be stricken from the regulations of the Board of Embelmers on the ground that they appear to be beyond the authority and jurisdiction of that board. The attorney general held that “the state Board of Embalmers has no jurisdiction over any persons other than the embalmers and that no li- cense may be issued to nor fee re- quired of undertakers as defined in your regulations.” “This does not mean, however,” Morris added, “that no supervision whatever may be exercised over un- the North Dakota Agicultural college, LOVE STRAHAN worry.
