The only trouble; was that the Chinese in the neigh- borhood didn't like it at all. They gathered by hundreds, threw ancient vegetables at the police and gave both cameramen and cops some anxious moments before they were finally dispersed. A more shining example of police stupidity could hardly be had. New York's cops have not exactly distin- guished themselves by their success in solving real crimes; if they want to shine in the movies they might at least find a more tactful way of do- ing it. got | The Lure of Speed Speed, while one of the blessings of modern life, is also one of its great- est curses.

Modern conditions have changed the attitudes of these manufacturers and for the lure of speed they are now substituting the concrete value of safety in their advertising.

FURTHER COLON PHYSIOLOGY The fundamental or underlying trouble with a lot of people who suf- fer with spastic constipation, mucous colic, colitis, or some similar complaint | is they know so many things about the physiology and hygiene of the ali- mentary tract which ain't so. The nostrum people, quacks and fad or cult healers as well as we orthodox ; medical practitioners, have taught |them these things, and are still teach- ing the same line of hokum. In the antecedent talk about colon physiology we pointed out a fact that is seldom considered, namely, that the jcontents of the lower colon of mant ‘and indeed all mammals in health is dry, solid, formed in masses or lumps. It is a common mistake to strive to keep the colon contents liquid or fiuid by means of cathartics, freak diets, | bowel washes and the like. H It may be a matter of interest,! though it has no particular hygienic | importance, that from one-fourth to one-third of the weight of the normal! contents of the lower colon in mam- | malia*is composed of the bodies of bacteria, dead and alive. These bac- teria are not only harmless but prob- ably beneficial to the host. What does matter and hence should be known by everybody, is that these germs natur- ally present in the intestine serve to disintegrate the food residue, splitting up gases and acids into products which are the natural excitors or stimuli of intestinal peristalsis or pro- pulsion of the contents. That's a lot for the layman to learn! in a day, particularly when his head is already stuffed with the old hokum above mentioned.

AMONG THE NEW POOR New York, Aug. 3.—Poverty myths steadily become more popular in Man- hattan than the old-time success tales. Cinderella, returning to her fireside, engages twice the attention at the moment as Cinderella on her way to court. The same crowd that was fascinated by the story of an of- fice boy's rise to merchant prince now passes along rumors of the slide of that same merchant prince back to the role of cab driver. Some of the psychologists, it would seem, have not been so far wrong about audience reaction. When boom times are at hand, “wishful thinking” is assumed to stimulate the imagina- tions of the crowd. And when things turn the other way around, some balm is presumed to come from the “we're- all-in-the-same-boat” idea. * * * At any rate, you'll hear in the New York highways of a man who was vice president of a defunct bank now act- ing as porter in a big building.

MANN Los Angeles, July 30.—Representa- tives of five continents bearing the insignia of 39 nations, surrounded by @ colorful crowd of 105,000 persons, ushered in the Tenth Olympiad under @ sun as hot and glaring as that be- neath which the first Olympic games were held on the shores of the Aegean Sea. The Pacific ocean sent an in- termittent breeze to cool the swelter- ing multitudes, which lessened cases for first aid tents, spotted at strategic Places about the vast stadium. \ Vice President Charles Curtis, ac- j companie@ by Count Baillet-Latour, {president of the Olympic committee, ‘and followed by an entourage of dig- {nitaries clad in frock coats and high | Silk hats started the afternoon pro- | gram on its way. They occupied seats jin the Tribune of Honor, situated in |the center of the stadium. Dolly | Gann did not, as usual, stand by the ‘side of her brother, who explained to {the press that many engagements | prevented her attendance at the | games. Every shade of the spectrum waved before the eye as the parade of na- |tions got under way and up overhead | zoomed an airplane writing across the {skies in hazy letters, “Olympic.” Seventeen words spoken by Mr. Cur- jtis in the name of President Hoover opened the Tenth Olympiad: “I pro- claim open the Olympic games of Los Angeles, celebrating the Tenth Olym- |piad of the modern era.” These are the same words which have been | Spoken at the inauguration of the jgames since 1896 when the Olympiad was revived. They will be the same at every future dedication. i Guns Boom Salute As these words were finished, from | without the stadium walls boomed the salute of 10 guns to the nations as- | Sembled within. An instant later, Vice President Curtis pressed a sil- ver button near his chair, lighting the | Olympic torch, the traditional man- {ner of ancient Greeks summoning the athletes to the games. As flames leaped skyward from the crest of the peristyle, trumpeters sounded martial strains. From the center of the field 2,000 homing pigeons were released. They soared aloft, dark objects against a relentless sun, symbolically bearing the story of the great opening, as other winged carriers of tidings did in the days of the beginning of the Olympiads. As the feathered harbingers of Olympic tidings cleared the walls of the stadium, the choir of 1,200 voices chanted Kipling’s Recreational Hymn and the Olympic flag, five linked cir- cles in colors of black, blue, red, yel- low and green on a white background, was raised aloft. It was a colorful and inspiring sight with all the athletes at attention la few movies and burlesque houses, together with the flea circus and freak museum, manage to hang on.

The march of nations was headed by Greece. This is traditional with the Olympic games. The United States’ 400 entrants, hosts to the vis- itors, were last to enter the stadium in attractive costumes of red, white and blue. Everyone of the more than 100,000 spectators were on their feet and a vociferous ovation was accorded the men and women who will wear the emblem of this nation on the! great athletic field of honor. Canadians Look Well Great Britain, Canada, Italy, Japan and Germany had the greatest num- ber of athletes in line after the Unit- ed States. Canada’s team was most attractive in stunning red coats and white trousers. The blue-shirted fol- lowers of Mussolini, who gave the Fascist salute as they passed Vice President Curtis’ box, won great ap- plause. The Japanese athletes, the largest foreign delegation here, were dressed in black coats and white trousers. Passing the reviewing Trib- une, they simply removed their straw hats, held them stiffly to their sides and in perfect step moved on to their a on the green field next to Italy. With their banners before them, the athletes stood at attention while the choir chanted the Olympic hymn which concludes with this resounding climax: And you, who are to march Beneath the palms victorious As conquerors we hail! Whose eyes stay calm and true Below your brows now glorious, ‘Whose heart shall never fail, THIS CURIOUS WORLD OLYMPICS PROGRAM Vice President Curtis Makes Whose heart shall never fail. It was a solemn hour for these men {and women who seek to take back the ‘highest prizes of sport to their na- tive lands. Their attitude intensified the significance of the ceremonies which is to maintain friendly and peaceful relations between all nations and all their people. This was no or- dinary assembly and the Olympic hymn, as it thundered down from one section of the stadium, was a direct challenge to keep the record clean: to win fairly; to lose as brave con- tenders; to win without selfish pride or arrogance. ‘Peace on Earth’ In his dedicatory speech, Dr. Rob- ert Gordon Sproul struck a high note in this: “and now, in the days immediately before us may these games on which we are about to embark, like their ancient pattern, help the life of men to higher physical, spiritual and moral values; may they help to teach youth character and rugged purpose, courage and self-sacrifice; may they build themselves into the richest and warmest blood of the generation and find their fruitage in the young life of all the days to come. May they promote the love of play, the recip- rocity of good will, and the solvent of good sportsmanship in which shall be washed away the immemorial feuds of mankind that now obscure the goal that is, nevertheless, so surely there and so completely attainable, the goal of: ‘Peace on earth, good will toward men’.” The ceremonies were marked by their dignity and lack of noisy osten- tation. Colorful, indeed, but always a ceremony, never taudry or raucous. Impressive to the end and thrilling to witness. When the time came for taking the oath, all flags were grouped before the rostrum in front of the review- ing Tribune in the order in which the teams entered the parade line of march. This collection of banners made a colorful combination and as the oath was spoken all flags dipped and at the end were held upright again. With right hand raised, the 2.000 Olympic’ entrants took the oath as it was read by Lieut. George C. Calnan, member of the American fencing team. He has had this honor four times. The American standard was carried by F. Morgan Taylor, a former Olympic hurdles champion. For the most part the athletes were youthful but here and there were men of middle age, some bald and gray. Germany has brought over some giants and, judging from some of the girths, there is a wrestler or two among the Teutons. Canada and the United States have the greatest number of women en- trants. The women marched in groups, usually in the center of the teams. They were singled out for spe- cial applause and the German girls, especially, were vivacious in return- ing salutes from the crowd. Norway and Sweden were not as well represented as other nations. Sweden outnumbered Norway two to one. The Swedes made an attractive appearance in their white suits. Swiss Are Distinctive The Swiss athletes marched in dif- ferent formation than all the others. They walked in a hollow square, car- rying a great red flag with a white cross upon it. American contenders naturally made the most impressive showing. There were nearly 500 men and wo- men in line and they had staggered their colors so that as they marched the red, white and blue stood out most vividly. The girls were clad in gay red and white Russian sports dresses and the men wore white flannel suits and blue berets. Red, white and blue edgings were on all the suits of the American boys and girls. As the parade of nations swung into the stadium and again as it made the exit march, fully as colorful as the first, the band of 250 pieces played the national airs of the various ath- letic teams as they neared the band- stand. Throughout these games the torch will burn from the crest of the peri- style. It is a huge Greek torch worked out in metal and dominates the en- trance to the monster stadium. Many North Dakotans who have visited California can visualize the stadium in Exposition Park where the games are held. In it many of them have seen colorful fiestas, great festivals and the autumnal and mid- winter football games. This stadium hag been enlarged so that instead of seating only 60,000, now there are seats for 105,000 spectators. So well organized are the seating facilities thafmore than half the audience was seated within 30 minutes. st TODAY AR AN RY - 1S THE «+ R IVER ? AMERICANS TAKE FISMES - On Aug. 3, 1918, advancing Ameri- can troops occupied Fismes, in the Marne sector of the western front, to climax a day of great progress for the allies on a 45-mile front. Virtually the entire. Aisne-Vesle front Between Soissons and Rheims was now in the hands of the allies. During the day, French and American forces occupied more than 100 square miles of territory. German losses during the great bat- tle which had been raging nearly three weeks were believed higher than in any similar period during the war. Equipment taken during the day by French and American soldiers was valued at more than $5,000,000. Many wonder at the huge number of people just aching for a chance to step into some congressman's shoes. Maybe that’s the only prospect they have of getting a pair. After the statement by the Eng- lish, it appeared for a time that the Hoover disarmament plan might be accepted by everybody but the United States. | A Minnesota veterinarian expects to put a window in a cow's side, ex- plaining that it will enable him to watch her digestion and will not hurt the cow.
