It is an active 50 years to which the celebration here gives formal rec- ognition. It has included many pe- riods of heartache and privation, for the lot of the missionary priest, which Bishop Wehrle experienced when he first came to North Dakota, was not an easy one. His duties required long trips by crude ‘conveyances, in winter winds and under blistering sun, but the call was always answered and this loy- alty to the cause for which he worked was one of the outstanding charac- teristics which brought to Bishop Wehrle recognition and advancement. Bishop Wehrle has grown old and stooped under the cares which the years have placed upon him and he still carries the heavy burdens of managing the affairs of a far-flung diocese. It is eminently fit and proper that his fellow ecclesiastics and the Cath- olic laity of the state should assem- ble to congratulate him upon this oc- casion of his golden jubilee and their expressions will be welcome to him.| They will be recognition for services rendered and for work well done. The recollection of this day will be pleasant to Bishop Wehrle in his de- clining years. Yet, it is the work itself which will continue to command his attention and interest. Well past three-score and ten, Bishop Wehrle maintains an active interest in all that goes on in the area in which he is the spiritual Jeader of a great church. His zeal is as unflagging as it was in the days when Western North Dakota was an untracked prairie and when th homes of those whose spiritual needs he served were few and far between. It is in recollection of the advances which have been made, largely through his efforts and under his leadership, that Bishop Wehrle must find his major satisfac- tion on this festive occasion. The plaudits of his fellow churchmen and of the Catholic laity are merely the crown upon the edifice of a life's work which he has reared. ‘Those of different religions and those of no religion at all share in the pride which Bismarck feels upon the occasi:n of this golden jubilee, for those of every faith recognize in Bishop Wehrle a man who has been outstanding in the affairs of this part of the state. They know him for a man who has contributed much to building up North Dakota. The Tariff and the Seaway Strange things are done in con- gress under the guise of balancing the budget. | There was little doubt that the tariffs on oil, copper, lumber and coal were designed as tariffs and were most strongly advocated by persons in those industries for business rea- sons rather than for any desire to degree whatever. The report was approved by President Hoover last December 31. “But it is reported that Senator Smoot, Republican of Utah, wanted duty on copper.

But it so happened that when Car- roll built his glittering show-place, he tricked it out with a thousand gadgets. Among his decorations were the neon lights on the marquee and scattered about the theater's interior. Neons are more than passingly ex- pensive. Ziegfeld, safe in possession, wanted the lights changed. Among the signs that irked him was one echoing the old Carroll boast that “Through these portals pass the most beautiful girls in the world.” Ziegfeld called in an expert to estimate the cost of changing the various signs. The estimate came to $20,000. And now. who is giggling? ' eee Aw G’wan! Joe Frisco, stuttering comic, recalls a time when he found himself in Den- ver.

Of course, it stands to reason that he must be somewhat dull-witted in the first place, else he wouldn't eat like a hired man. Be that as it may, the more he eats the duller he grows and the duller he grows the more he eats, and this merry whirl continues until some- thing busts. Maybe a bit of an ar- tery in the place where his brains are stored. It is a great life, eating that way, until something gives out on you. ~ physical prime at the age of 45, The ideal body weight is that of the in- dividual aged 35. Normally the body weight gradually increases to the op- timum at 35—157 pounds for men of average height (68 inches) and 138 pounds for women of average height (65 inches)—but unfortunately many of us have the habit of gaining so firmly fixed that we keep right on gaining even after 35, so that by the time we turn 50 we're in no fit con- dition even to take out life insurance, for the insurance companies are yn- willing to bet a fat or overweight in- dividual will live very long, A reasonable amount of superfluous or excess weight is rather 9 favorable thing for youngsters. Under 35 any- thing less than 7 per cent overweight (that is, over the average for per- isons of a given age and height) is not only pleasing to the eye but is actually favorable to long life.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Vaccination Should Be Voluntary Please state whether in your opin- ion vaccination should be compulsory for admission of children to school. —(N. A.W.) Answer.—No, In my opinion vac- cination should be offered to all who want it; those who do not want it should not be compelled to have it but in time of an outbreak of small- x all unvaccinated contacts should strictly isolated for the safety of the community and vaccinated cen- tacts allowed to go about their usual business. If this seems inconsistent I might explain that I do not think the unvaccinated public is sufficient- ly aware to realize the peril of being ‘unvaccinated. Drugs Versus Food Is it harmful to season all my food highly with pepper? I am 16 and I aye liver trouble.—(Evelyn.) wer.—Yes; young persons par- ticularly should avoid pepper, mus- tard and the other hot sauces or con- diments, These are irritants to the stomach and kidneys and other or- gans and used only to disguise taste of poor food poorly cooked. Alto- gether too much of such stuff is foisted on school children in school cafeterias or lunch rooms where die- ticlans are supposed to function, Cysts Are cysts caused by run-down con- dition of the system?
