The result is that the average citizen can hardly remember whether the current week is Apple week or Grape- fruit week. But one of these observances which all of us look forward to and observe is Mother's Day. The reason, probably, is that all of hen caiiant Bismarck Tribune} ressmen who vote dry and drink per wet. THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1982. Hoover’s Threat ‘When President Hoover told con- gress Thursday afternoon that it would have to stop its dilly-dallying or he would carry his fight to the peo- ple, he used one of the most potent weapons open to a chief executive. {Incidentally, he ratsed himself a notch or two in the estimation of many citizens. The nation is pretty well sold on the idea that the budget should be | balanced and the surprising thing is that Hoover, rather than congress, should appreciate the fact. In many cases the president has not been able to sense the sentiment of the people very clearly, but in this case either he or his advisers have hit the nai? squarely on the head. Regardless of what one may think of the manner in which the govern- ment financed the reconstruction cor- poration, so it could finance the rail- roads, so they could pay their loans to the big bankers, the people of the country realize that governmental fi- nance is little different from personal finance. The man who lives beyond his in- come runs into trouble, usually sooner rather than later. The government which does the same thing shows it- self to be just as irresponsible as the individual who fails to pay his bills. But there is this difference. An in- dividual can go bankrupt and few per- sons may be concerned, but if the gov- ernment were to go bankrupt every- one in the country would be seriously affected and whatever chance of re- covery there may exist now would vanish. With regard to balancing the budget, Hoover seems to be putting more faith in the intelligence and in- tegrity of the American people than does congress. Pick Your Hawks Modern biological studies have done much to disprove if not to elim- inate ancient prejudices of the hu- man race. us have a new and deeper apprecia- tion of motherhood with each passing day. Everywhere, all the time, there are evidences of the devotion and constancy which make the mother- hood of the world one of the greatest forces for good which we know. Do we seek examples of sacrifice? No hero of history has sacrificed more than many mothers are sacrificing at this minute. Is it proof of love which we would have? Mothers right here in Bis- marck are daily proving a love which rivals that of Him who died on the cross. Is constancy a virtue, or faith or hope? Few of us find better exam- ples of these characteristics than in the mother who bore us. And so, on this day set aside for the purpose, we pay reverence to a queen whose realm is our own heart. If Mother is living we visit her if we can and, if this is impossible, we let her know that we think of her often and that we are with her in spirit. If Mother is dead, we wear the white rose and make new resolutions to keep her memory green in our hearts. And always we accuse ourselves of our own frailties, our own forgetful- ness and neglect where Mother is concerned and decide that, hereafter, every day will be Mother's Day. These resolutions hardly ever last, of course, but the effort to return, at Teast in some measure, the constancy and devotion which have been lavish- ed upon us, makes better sons and daughters of us all. And better citi- zens, too. It was inevitable that Mother's Day should be made the subject for com- mercial exploitation and it is just as well, for too few of us would remem- ber to give material evidence of our appreciation if the idea were not sug- gested to us. We are like that, some- times, where we take so much for granted as we do with our mothers. But even as we present our gifts, we have the consciousness that, after all, they mean very little to her whom we honor this day. We feel in our hearts that the best tribute we can pay is to make at least some of the dreams come true which she held for us as she hugged us to her breast in the long ago. This isn’t impossible, for mothers are always reasonable. The Die Is Cast While members of-the W. C. T. U. at Grand Forks were reaffirming their faith in and allegiance to the prohi- bition law recently, 118 citizens of Casselton were holding a public meet- ing and signing a resolution in which they pledged themselves to oppose all congressional candidates who do not favor resubmission of the eighteenth amendment to a vote of the people. Events. of this kind seem to be shaping the die for the wet-dry fight in North Dakota this year and a great many citizens will be just a lit- tle sorry that it promises to be bitter. ‘These are the type who have hoped, Nearly everyone has an antipathy for snakes, yet many of them are harmless to human beings and have a beneficial effect in keeping the forces of nature in balance, since their diet consists of rodents and in- sects. In the same general category come the hawks. Many a farmer gets out the shotgun when a hawk appears in sight, thinking to protect his chick- ens. If he would look closely, how- ever, he could easily tell whether the visitor was a friend or foe and if the shotgun were really needed, for hawks also may be divided into beneficial and harmful classes. Generally speaking, if a hawk has a wide, fan-shaped tail and broad wings he should be treated as a friend, since his activities are helpful rather than harmful. If, on the other hand, he has a relatively long tail and rounded wings, the shotgun is the proper treatment, for he is likely to be a pirate of the sky. With animals and birds, as with broad a basis. The Debt Situation The recent declaration by Ger- many’s finance minister, Herr Diet- rich, that Germany will not pay any more reparations, would have caused an infinite sensation if it had been made two years ago. Now, although it ranks as an important international utterance, it occasions no surprise whatever, It has been fairly clear for a good many months that the reparations cow has been milked dry. You cannot get blood out of a turnip, no matter how hard you try. Sooner or later, of course, the whole Problem will be dumped in the lap of Uncle Sam. By autumn we shall have Gilbert Swan Faded Flowers New York, May 7.—Many eminent Stock Exchange figures pass in re- view before the current senatorial committee quiz of short-sellers and bears, but “Joe - the - flower - man” seems to have been overlooked, some- how, in those months the crash made Wall Street what it is today. ‘The case of Joe might be consid- ered typical of the general change. Joe was a picturesque bit of atmos- Phere, rather than an important trader. For years it had been the custom “on the floor” for "Change members to identify themselves by wearing a gardenia in a button hole. That's where Joe came in. Stationed near the entrance, he would sell these po- sies—and at $1 each. A profitable business, as you can see. He came to know all and sundry of the bigger and lesser “shots” and they all called him by his first name. Today gardenias can be bought from any street peddler for 10 cents apiece, or less. In the Exchange area they've sold for as little as three-for-a-quar- ter. Which reminds me that the Mi- chael Meehan, who flashed spectacu- larly into the investigation picture for a day, was selling tickets for a Broad- way theater agency not so many years human beings, it frequently is erro-|ag0. Big market players, with easy neous to make classifications on too| Money in their pockets, would call on him for seats. And, it was said, would whisper a “good thing” in return for special courtesies. Meehan bought ac- cordingly, and it was thus he got his start. ee * Dog Star “Flush,” the sole trouping dog out- side of a “Tom” show, holds the’ Broadway record for the longest ca- nine run in serious drama. Pet span- fel of Katherine Cornell, Flush wan- dered in and out of “The Barrets of ‘Wimpole Street” and never missed a cue. His troubles began, however, when the show took to the road. A Postcard advises me that Flush has not taken readily to travel, has had difficulty adjusting himself to strange exits and needs daily rehearsals—but has been rewarded with medals by several humane societies. eee Belasco's Cat One of the most famous of Broad- way stage animals, however, is an @ pretty clear idea of just what this] anonymous cat.

The astute Belasco wanted the au- dience to get an immediate effect of warmth and coziness and comfortable home life. The cat gave him an idea. He took the prowler back stage. Un- til a second before curtain time, the animal's paws were bound. Then, just as the curtain rose, the cat was liberated. Reacting to freedom, the cat would rise on the hearth and stretch itself. The effect was perfect. This touch of reality invariably brought surprised applause. ee * A Sour Smile Something of an out-of-the-corner smile is likely to be going around “Wise-acre Square,” thanks to a piece in a current magazine written by Tex Guinan. The article tells wives how to keep their husbands out of the night clubs. Fact is, so few husbands—or any- one else, for that matter—are going to night clubs that La Guinan and others have had to close shop on a number of occasions.

German heavy artillery was being rushed to the front, it was reported, and a division of reserves had been placed against the Australians to slow their offensive. Great activity on the French sector was reported by Allied air observers and a new major German offensive was expected within a week. More than 200,000 American sol- diers were ready to be thrown into the battle in case of necessity, and this reserve added to the feeling in France that Germany's defeat was almost certain. British official sources announced that at least 14 German submarines had been destroyed during the month of April.

There had been a maid dusting the great hall as she passed. She had walked the two miles to the station feeling sick and faint and longing for some coffee, Back in the city she had stopped at a lunch counter in the big terminal and the thick cup of steaming liquid shoved at her by a rosy lad in a starched uniform had Dut new heart into her. It had given her courage to go home and face Aunt Jessie’s many questions, eee TOMORROW — Susan wondered about tomorrow. The night be- fore it had seemed the simplest, most natural thing in the world to turn to Ernest Heath. Now she was doubtful. Hadn't she been over- hasty and impulsive? She won- dered if Heath would not resent her attitude of the night before. She had been so distraught that at the time there had seemed nothing else to do. Now she was conscious of nervous dread over the prospect of meeting him again. Last night everything had been unreal. Today they had resumed their proper out- lines, She was Susan a working girl, not Susan Carey in & white lace dress, being driven to @ party on the north shore, Heath came fn, ill at ease and nervous, scarcely glancing at her. With instincts abnormally sharp- ened by dread Susan imagined his greeting was unusually cool. “Good morning, Miss Carey.” Her reply was scarcely audible but at least the moment was over. Susan breathed more freely and went about her tasks with an intense, al- most fierce concentration, She was Grateful to her employer for not referring to the Saturday night's incident. For the first time she be- gan to think of Heath as a man rather than as an employer. His unfailing courtesy, even his cool- ness and stiffness now seemed vir- tues. She felt tremendously grate- ful to him. Outwardly nothing had changed but actually the two were conscious of each other. Of Bob the girl refused to think. That was finished now. It was a book she had. closed, ® book that had begun rather charmingly but| fr! ended badly, She had written Deniso a curt little note telling her nothing of what she really felt, It had cost her something to do that, Susan was so quiet for the next few days that even Aunt Jessie was alarmed. Aunt Jessie bad tried, even as Rose, to draw Susan out on the subject of the house party, “This gadding sround leads to no good,” Aunt Jessie scolded, If she had expected to rouse her niece's; Pirit by this tried and true re- ‘kk she was disappointed. “I guess maybe you're right,” Su- san had said drearily. “I think T'll go to bed early tonight.

Next week would usher in her birthday. At 20 a birthday should be an event, a celebration. For Susan it seemed neither this year. When Ben telephoned she told him she was busy. She had not seen him gince the eventful night of the house party. Quite unreasonably she blamed Ben in her heart, If he had not been there, she would think, perhaps things might have been different. Susan went to mov- ies with Rose, washed her hair, and darned her stockings with beau- titul, invisible stitches. She bor- Towed books from the library and read them with her mind far away. seemed empty and futile. Some days—the easiest ones—passed in a sort of gray haze when she felt nothing at all. There were other times when the turn of & head, a man’s voice calling to an- other across a restaurant or a Phrase leaping at her from the pages of a book awoke her to some- thing like agony. She wondered why people said the young were happy. They cer- tainly weren't, At least she wasn't. She kept reaching out and striving for things she could never have.
