(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Welcome to C. M. T. C. Bismarck today has the privilege of | ‘welcoming to Fort Lincoln and to Bismarck the young men who will compose the Citizens’ Military Train- ing Corps this summer. Some were here last year or the year before and to these we express the welcome born of past friendship. ‘We are just as anxious to renew and cement the friendly feeling for this | city as they are to come again and} Jearn more of the things which young and active fellows find to interest | them at the camp. { To the newcomers we extend hearty | and sincere greetings and express the} wish that they will like our city and its people. The business houses and residents! of Bismarck generally will join again in the effort to make their stay pleas- ant. They will receive a smile and friendly consideration from everyone for we love both them and the spirit | which they represent. These boys are the flower of young America, filled with its hopes and as- Ppirations, its confidence and willing- ness to learn. In many respects they are the lower of the new crop of citi- zens, experiencing for the first time the thousand and one things which his country. Fun in Confession | One of the most amusing early hap- | Penings in this year's political drama | is the pronouncement of the Scripps- | Howard newspapers for Al Smith. i This great and power chain was enthusiastic for Hoover and assisted | greatly in his election in 1928. It| subscribed whole-heartedly to all the, fine things which were said about the president and made millions aware of | the fact. The Scripps-Howard news- | papers helped to paint the picture of} Hoover which was so unfair to him} and which is causing him so much} distress and has so impaired his po- litical prospects now. the superman, the bringer of good} tidings, the great engineer. | In 1932 he is described as lacking} the virtue of decisiveness, as being timid, weak and suffering from poor advice. Governor Roosevelt 1s chal- Jenged with being of the same, tem-| porizing type and Al Smith is praised | as a man who is, at least, bold, forth- right and honest. | There is nothing funny about that. It represents merely a change of heart or opinion. But, as was to be expected, many | persons recalled the attitude of 1928, | ‘compared it with that of 1932 and| asked “how come?” | ‘The New York World-Telegram has | ‘this to say under the heading “The | Answer”: \ The Scripps-Howard declaration for Smith as against Roosevelt has brought from many sources this query:— “If you think so much of Smith against Hoover in 1928?” The confession is so forthright that | it is funny in this period of evasion and dyed-in-the-wool political atti- tudes.

In previous years it always has been eagerly seized upon by the Re- publicans, for it always has been their friend. This year it is different. Does the ghost of the old, reliable “full-dinner-pail” stalk the platform boards at Chicago this week to make the Republican convention a somber affair? One wonders. A Worthwhile Project Working on the theory that every industrial concern and its workers are entitled to the benefits of organized accident prevention, the National Safety Council has announced a plan for spreading the gospel of industrial safety throughout the length and breadth of the land. Every concern, large or small, can have the organiza- tion’s help in establishing a plan for @ continuous campaign of accident prevention. The plan offered may be pretty well described by one word, “personalized.” It takes cognizance of the fact that safety work is everybody's business— not merely that of safety engineers and shop foremen. Every person connected with the plant becomes a “stockholder” in the work. The coun- cil has provided Industrial Safety trophies which will be awarded the department or group winning the year-round safety contest within a company. The individual workman will be reached each month with an interesting magazine called “The Safe Worker.” Payroll messages are to be provided to be given on pay day to every workman as an added reminder of safety. The technique of the plan come to a man in the armed forces of | is to reach every member of a concern with personal, direct contacts in the interest of safety industrial opera- tions. Industries should take advantage of such a service. Many concerns, through concentrated safety work, have reduced accidents from 50 to 90 per cent in recent years. Thousands of deaths and hundreds of thousands of non-fatal accidents can be pre- be increased tremendously.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15, 1982 - JACKIE'S GUARDS New York, June 15.—Notes on noth- ing in particular and everything in general ... The America that is pre- sumed to love Jackle Cooper, rarely talented child of the cinema, and to weep and laugh over his screen ad- ventures, might have been interested at a scene staged the other afternoon at New York’s swanky Casino... Jackie arrived, snipnosed and boy- ishly impish, seating himself at a ta- ble, surrounded by notables, admirers and newspaper folk... But on either side sat men who were strangers to all save Jackie... They were detec- tives ... Bodyguards, if you prefer...

However, it’s pleasant to hear that the mightiest continue to fall for sim- sr SITIS IS NOT ANOTHER NAME FOR CATARRH New Jersey correspondent takes me severely to task for my effort to abol- ish the word “catarrh” and, as he avers, to substitute a high sounding name for the same thing, to-wit, si- nusitis. I plead not guilty. It is true I be- lieve we might well abolish “catarrh,” for of course there is no such condi- tion. To say one has “catarrh” is merely to try to avoid confessing you don’t know what the trouble is. Or if you are a healer or a nostrum ven- {dor your remedy or treatment is sure to suit the sucker if you can convince the sucker he has “catarrh.” No doubt a good many persons have drifted along for years believing they | suffered with “catarrh” when in fact they suffered with sinusitis. But in the great majority of cases where pa- tients came to me complaining of ca- nation I found they had simple | chronic rhinitis or hypertrophic rhin- {itis—simple inflammation of the lin- | ing of the nose or inflammation with permanent thickening of the mucous membrane. There has been comparatively lit- tle about sinusitis in this column, for the good reason that I know compar- ppvely little about it. If any physi- cfan or specialist knows much about the profession at large. The diagnosis and treatment of sinus disease is highly unsatisfactory to physician and patient alike. We have a lot yet to learn about sinusitis. Is sinusitis actually more prevalent today, or is the present popularity of the trouble merely due to more pains- taking diagnosis in cases of alleged own impression is that there is an actual increase in prevalence, and I have an insistent idea that the fren- zied intra-nasal surgery of 10 or 20 years ago is one factor in the in- creased prevalence of sinusitis. Most good nose and throat specialists to- day recognize the wisdom of avoiding surgical interference with the middle turbinate in the nose, because the frontal, maxillary and ethmoidal si- nuses drain into the nose behind that body, and surgery with resultant atro- phy is likely to lead to chronic trou- ble in these sinuses. Then, too, I have a vague and wholly unsatisfactory notion that the character of our diet may have some- thing to do with our tendency to have chronic sinus trouble.

To begin with we have only theoretical conceptions of the purpose or function of a sinus anyway. There is no satisfactory ex- planation why the Creator placed these air-spaces in the bone of the skull. Heres’ one consolation: I can as- sure our New Jersey correspondent that if he has sinusitis he hasn’t “ca- tarrh,” but if he thinks he has “ca- tarrh” there's no telling whether it may not be sinusitis. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Todin Ration Have been taking iodin drops in water for the last two months, two drops each day. Lately have increased this to three drops a day.

What would be the result if I increased to from five to 10 drops? | ++ GZ.) | Answer—Something like the result obtained by the man who killed the} gogse that laid the golden eggs. I; suggest as an iodin ration suitable for everybody, including children, one drop of the common tincture of fodin | (old spelling iodine) in a glassful of | or more of water, once a week! throughout the year or daily for a month in each of the four seasons of | the year. If the poison label which, facetiously, is placed on tincture of iodin, worries you, just forget it. Raw Carrots Notwithstanding the jibes of my family I like raw carrots and eat three or four a day. What harm will they | do to me?—(Mrs. D. E. F.) Answer—None. On the contrary, it is a good health habit to chew some! such raw vegetable daily. The color- | ing matter of carrots may impart a/ carroty tinge to the skin of the palms; and soles, but if that annoys you,: switch to celery or turnip or cabbage or wheat or potato.

The whistle died as he swung open the heavy door and entered. Dan crossed the lobby and made directly for the elevator. The car was delayed and as he waited he moved toward the desk where a man with gray hair was sorting let- ters. “How're you, Cap? Any luck on the ponies today?” The man behind the desk looked up, grinned. “Aw, I told you I was through with the races. No sir— not for mine!” It was a standing joke between them that once old “Cap” Graham had “lost his shirt” on a particu- larly authentic horse race tip. The old man rather liked to be re minded of it. Tho incident sug- gested that in his day “Cap” had been one of the young bloods, free with his money and a game loser. Dan lingered and the “Cap” con- tinued sorting his letters, There would be none in the pack for Dan. His mail was addressed to the News office, Suddenly the hotel clerk looked up. “Say,” he said, “I almost forgot! There was a girl askin’ for you. She went into the parlor to wait. Must have been more than an hour ago. I don’t know if she's still there—" “A girl to see me?” The “Cap” nodded. “Yep. Asked me if Daniel Phillips of the News lived here and was he in. I told her—" “But who was she? What did she look like?” “Oh, I'm not much at describin’ women folks. Real nice lookin’ though. She didn’t tell me her name. Maybe she’s still there. Why don’t you have a look and see?” Phillips frowned. Someone who knew he was on the News, of course. Might be a nuisance— eee didn't know where else to go to find you. I telephoned the News but they said you'd gone. I didn't know what to do so I came here.” “But, Cherry, is anything the matter?” «“No—I guess not. I want to talk to you, Dan.” “Why, of course. Let's sit down.” They seated themselves on the magenta-colored plush sofa with its stiff back and tipsy, irregular springs. Dan put a hand over the girl's and saw her eyes light grate- fully. 'm not going back!” He watched her, incredulous, waiting for her to continue. “It was Father,” Cherry went on. “We had a terrible scene. He wanted to send me to California and I said I wouldn’t go!” At the far end of the room a Stroup were sitting about a card table. There were three middle aged women and a man. Dan be- came aware that the card playing had been suspended. “Wait a minute,” he said to Cherry under his breath. “This Place is too crowded. Let’s get out of here!” They arose and walked through the lobby to the street door. Out- side the cold night air stung their cheeks. Dan put a hand on Cherry's arm as they went down the steps. “Where are we going?” she asked. “Suppose we walk for a while and you tell me what happened.” oe HERRY drew the collar of ber Dolo coat closer. “Well,” she be- gan, “after I got home I dressed and burried down to dinner, Father and Mother were still in the living room and I thought everything was Going to be all right. Father said something about how I was feeling and then, right out of. clear sky, he said Mother and I were to leave for California tomorrow! T= door of the elevator cage clicked open but Dan turned away. He had decided he'd just glance into the parlor and satisfy his curiosity. With a carefully casual manner Dan paused in the doorway. Sud- denly he moved forward. “Why, Cherry!” he exclaimed. “What in the world are you doing here?” She got to her feet. Phillips was beside her now and even in the sub- dued light he could see that the sirl’s eyes were red-lined, She smiled but her pallor was ling. “What is it?” Phillips repented. “Why, I had no idea you were here! ‘When did you come? I'm sorry if you've walted—" “It doesn't matter,” Cherry told him, “now that you're heres 1 “Let's get married right away. Tonight!” “I couldn’t believe my ears. I told him I didn’t want to go and tried to get Mother to say some thing. Then all at once he said he knew where I had been this after- noon and who I was with. He called you @ ‘scoundrel’ and I said you weren’t! And he said I'd broken my word and I said I hadn't be- cause I didn’t promise I wouldn't see you. And I didn’t either! Then —oh, then I don’t know what we both said. It was terrible! I must have lost my head completely but I couldn't help it. Father shouted that I'd have to apologize or leave and—well, I left!” “But Cherry—” “I won't go back no matter what happens. I won't!” “What did you do after that?” “Oh, I ran upstairs and got a coat and hat and my purse and left the house. Instead of calling 3 cab I walked to the street car and rode down town. I tried to telephone you at the office and when you weren't there I romembered you said you reas at the Bismark so I went there.” “You haven't eaten?” “No-o." Phillips swung her about with alacrity. “Well,” he said, “first of all you're going to have some hot food.” “But I don’t want to eat, I’m not hungry.” “Good for you just the same. almost nine o'clock. Two blocks’ walk brought them to one of @ national chain of restaurants with all-night service. Across the brightly polished tile-topped table Phillips gave the order, In spite of the girl's protests she ate and felt better for it, “Now then,” said Dan over the second cup of coffee, “what's to be done next?” Cherry shook her head, “I don't know.” Bibsebi (©1932 ov ca Sones WC. “But, Cherry, this is serious. You say you won't go back to your home but what else can you do?” “I—I thought you'd help me.” * “Why, I’ll do anything I can, of course. But you'll have to have a place to stay. Have you any friends—” She said she did not. There was no one to whom she could go. Cherry’s great eyes were serious now. Beneath the heavy polo coat she was wearing the crepe gown in which she had dressed for dinner. Her hat was the brown felt she had worn in the afternoon. Her lips tried to keep a straight line but they trembled. “Cherry, darling,” Dan began and then stopped. He saw that one great tear had slid down the smooth cheek. The girl’s eyes were dim and misted. “We'll find a place for you,” he said brusquely. “I'll get hold of one of the girls at the office—" eee HERRY brushed her moist lashes with her hand. Shi id with- out raising her eyes, “But, Dan, don’t you remember what you said this afternoon?” “Why, yes, I think so. what do yoy mean?” - “Don’t you remember you said it was Father's money that—well, that it made a difference?” “It does, Cherry. There's no get- ting around it.” “But, Dan!” Eager eyes were raised to his. “That's all over now. Don’t you see? I haven't any money. I haten’t anything. When I left home tonight I said—I said that I was going to marry you!” “Cherry! Why, it’s out of the question, I can’t marry anyone for a long while. You know I don’t make enough to keep you in hats or even buy your silk hose! I’ve never thought much about saving and it’s taken about all I’ve made to get along. ‘Have a good time while you go’ has been the way I looked at things. You seo I didn’t dream I was going to meet a girl like you—” “But you have met me now. And I don’t care anything about money. It’s you, Dan! It’s you I wani!” Fortunately the restaurant was almost deserted. Neither the other diners who sat across the room nor the waiter who lingered within hailing distance showed any inter- st in the little drama. Phillips shook his head. “We can’t do it!” he said. “It wouldn't be fair to you.” “You mean,” the girl's voice con- tinued unsteadily, “you don’t want to marry met” “Darling, you know that’s not true!” head away. “This afternoon,” she fal- tered, “you said you—loved me, Dan.” I love you too much to risk your happiness.” Painer Gaver Gah whe 10 newspaper very with inch red lettering across its sides drew up before the glass front of the restaurant.
