It reaches not only into every village and hamlet but into foreign lands and it has so many duties that reams of paper would be required to list them. In this state one of the things it frequently has been called upon to do is to deliver petitions on various public matters to the secretary of state and in this duty, under a rul- 50| than he. ing by the supreme court, it is all but infallible. No question has been raised as to the legality of the filing of referen- dum petitions with the secretary of state by mail Thursday. That mat- ter was decided about five years ago in a case so similar as to be almost identical and by the very same men who now sit on the state's highest bench. As a candidate for the United States senate, F. F. Burchard of Grand Forks had circulated petitions as required by law. These were sign- ed in the regular order and sent to the secretary of state at Bismarck by express, but through an error they ‘were delivered to the state board of administration instead. With the “deadline” for receiving Petitions passed, the secretary pub- lished the list of candidates and Burchard was not on it. ‘Thereupon he came to Bismarck, nosed around until he uncovered the Petitions, which he promptly took to the secretary of state. That official refused to accept them on the ground that they had not been filed in time. Burchard appealed to the supreme court and that body directed the sec- retary of state to accept the petitions and put Burchard’s name on the bal- lot. In essence the court’s ruling was that the express company was act- ing as agent for Burchard and hence had power to “file” the petitions for him, that the board of administra- tion, in accepting a package addressed. to the secretary of state, acted as an agent for that official and that the effect was the same as though they had been filed with him personally, Applying this ruling to the case of the sales tax and workmen's com- Pensation petitions, we find that they were “filed” when they were Placed in the postoffice, Uncle Sam’s mail carriers acting, in this case, as agent for both the petitioners and the secretary of state. No Point to Sitting Idle Various forces, principally North Dakota Democrats who are anxi to see a complete political turnover in this state, are hard at work to have @ Missouri river dam built in this state. Its benefit is unquestioned and if, as Democratic Chairman Fred Mc- Lean suggests, the national adminis- tration is not concerned with proof of definite financial advantage to fol- low the development, we may see something definite done. McLean feels that preliminary work can be started this summer if North Dakota presents a solid front on the matter. Unquestionably this great valley is ® fertile field for further develop- ment. There is no reason why North Dakota should sit idly by while South Dakotans campaign for a series of dams in their state and Montana ad- vocates one of the greatest water conservation projects in history on its Fort Peck Indian reservation. for Votes lin; Two Aaetne hoe appeared in ‘Wednesday's story of the fight be- tween the president and congress on. the veterans appropriation throw more light on congressional tempera- ment than might be found in many a volume on the subject. They were the observations of Chairman Crosser of the house steer- img committee and of Speaker Rainey that “the boys” want to vote on the veterans amendment in order to put themselves on record. In other words, they want to make ‘@ gesture to impress the veterans that they have supporters in national leg- islative halls. Apparently the heat from “back home was more than the solons could endure comfortably, although it is not certain that it was applied by anything like a majority. After congress had granted the eA ses RA, president power to deal with the vet- eran question and the president had issued his executive orders changing certain factors in the compensation set-up, many veterans protested. This explains the desire of congressmen to put themselves on record now. Stronger Than Men Jimmy Mattern’s record-breaking: flight across the ocean and onto Si- beria's steppes proves again that ma- chines are stronger than men. The plane which took him over the Atlantic was in good shape to con- tinue indefinitely, but the intrepid flier had to have sleep. When he had refreshed himself the machine was ready. Although he is its mas- ter, it is stronger and more enduring The fact takes nothing in the way of credit from a feat as remarkable as any aviation has known. It merely emphasizes the physical limitations from which man cannot escape. A statement by Mattern, made in Russia, throws some light on both the development of the modern airplane and the nonchalance of those who operate them. By adjusting the rud- der in a given position and crossing his feet in a certain manner, we are told, Mattern is able to take “cat- naps” during his long flights. Appar- ently he deliberately permits himself to doze while speeding through the air at something more than 100 miles an hour. A device attached to his altimeter squirts water in his face if he gets too low. Of such things, apparently, are record-breaking performances made. President Roosevelt is willing to lis- ten to Europe on the war debts but will not take the initiative. Did you ever hear of anyone voluntarily of- fering to scale down a debt? The drys had hoped to carry In- diana but lost two to one. The late Wayne B. Wheeler never made a guess as bad as that. | PERSONAL HE By William ALTH SERVICE Brady, M. D.

IODIN AS FOOD AND AS MEDICINE ¥ One of our customers complains: I don’t understand why you say one must be examined by a physician and follow his advice about taking iodin for... I have been taking your Iodin Ration for over a year and I notice my hair has stopped turning gray and I certainly feel like a dif- ferent person. a I suggest the iodin ration for everybody, man, woman or child. Todin is food, and as a food it is es- sential for health. Any man, woman or child who does not get an adequate ration of iodin, in one way or on- other, is bound to suffer in health. When I send instructions for tak- ing:an Iodin Ration, on receipt of your request accompanied with a stamped envelope bearing your ¢or- rect address, I give explicit direc- tions for taking iodin as a food. When you have been on the ration for a while and believe you are de- riving benefit from it and then begin wondering whether more iodin wouldn’t do more good or maybe cure your jitters or your rheumatiz or something and decide to squander another dime writing to get my o.k. on your experiment, I tell you he that you have come to the wrong shop. This is not a long distance} medical clinic. ‘ Everybody needs a certain quan- tity of phosphorus and lime daily, in one form or another. Milk, eggs and vegetables contain the best forms of these food elements. But anybody who contemplates taking phosphorus or lime as medicine would be wise to leave the question of the dosage to the judgment of his own physician. Certainly no physician who has not examined the individual patient can tell whether such medicine is needed or if it is, how much or what form would be advisable for the particu- lar_case. From time to time I have men- tioned here some of the benefits I believe many persons derive from the Iodin Ration. I feel like a bloom- | ( ing quack every time I refer to the subject, for no matter how metic- ulous I am to say that it tends to PREVENT something or other, a lot of the customers rush right down to the postoffice for a stamp to write and tell me to send on the prescrip- tion I offer for the cure of the con- dition. Here is what I believe the Iodin Ration does for many persons: In children it prevents simple goitre; in girls in their 'teens it prevents mopiness, physical and mental 1; tude; in persons of mature age it prevents going stale, premature graying of the hair, loss of pep, the blues, premature hardening of the arteries. I believe persons with goitre—any kind of goitre—may and should have their Iodin Ration the same as others, I doubt that the use of Iodized Salt for all household and table pur- poses in place of ordinary salt pro- vides sufficient iodin for the needs of the body. But since it costs the same as ordinary salt, I prefer to use jit exclusively in my own home. Foods containing iodin are listed in the monograph any correspondent may have if he or she asks for in- structions for taking an Iodin Ration, and incloses a stamped envelope bearing the correct address.

It iy Thrown upon her own resources, Mary Lou Thurston, beautiful and vivacious orphan, applies for a position as companion to a semi- tnvalid in the palatial home of Mrs. Lorrimer at Westmill, necticut. Mrs, Lorrimer explains the ad should have read “male” as the invalid is her son, Travers, shell-shocked in the war. As Mary Lou is about to leave, Travers enters, He seizes her in his arms, all her “Delight” and “wife.” Then he faints when Mary Lou fails to respond to his caresses. Mrs. Lorrimer persuades Mary Lou to assume the role of Delight Harford, whom Travers claims he married in England, in order to help him regain his health. Mary Lou confides in her friend, Larry Mitchell, young newspaper re- porter. Dr. Mathews tells Travers that as meiake was very young at the time of their marriage and since believed him dead, it is only aa to begin all over with friend- ship. Copyright, 1930, CHAPTER XV. OWNSTAIRS Doctor Mathews was recounting the story he had told Travers to the two women, and Mary Lou was breathing more freely, because her ordeal had been postponed a little longer. “Do you remember the names of the people with whom Delight Harford lived?” Doctor Mathews asked Mrs. Lorrimer. She rose and went to a small wall safe, adjusted the combination and, taking out a black notebook, came back to her chair. “It’s all down here,” she told them. “I procured every tiniest de- tail from Travers when he was able to tell me, so that I could instruct and inform the London agents as accurately as possible.” The Little Black Book ———— For another hour they sat there, reading her notes and discussing them, while Mrs. Lorrimer supple- mented them with descriptions given her by her son. And so Mary Lou learned her own story. Delight Harford had been born in New York of American parents. When she was 4 years old her mother, now Mrs. Von Koch, had taken the child to England on visit to distant cousins and had remained there. Shorey before the war Mrs. Harford married a German she had met while travel- ing in Switzerland and, on De- light’s refusal to live with or even speak to the new stepfather, her mother, now Mrs. Von Koch, had gone to Dresden, leaving Delight a small le; , enough to pay her board and ‘ing and a little over. The mother, always a rather casual and light-minded woman, had parted from her daughter without much sorrow. They _ always. been antagonistic or so Delight had told Travers. The cousins were named Lucy and Mary Morris and were spinsters of some means, living on reen Street. Delight had con- tinued to live with them. They had both been immersed in war work at the time Travers had met the re ‘Lucy, in fact, had gone to ince with an ambulance corps and Mary was working as a . A. D. in a London hospital. Delight herself had worked in a canteen and there young Travers ad met her. ‘The background was thus estab- lished, and Mary Lou went over it again and again until she felt she was letter perfect. “Of course,” she told Dr. Math- ews and Mrs. Lorimer, “I’ll fall down terribly in my part at times. He’ll wonder why I haven’t heard from the cousins, and don’t hear from them while I am here.” “They are dead,” announced Dr, Mathews, with a gesture denoting wholesale slaughter, “‘and that is why you 08 to America asa companion, hoping to find em- ployment here and perhaps some AKE-BELIEVE” by Faith Baldwin American relations of your ,p: father’s.” “How about Delight’s—I mean, my mother?” asked Mary Lou, seriously. “Dead, too!” Mary Lou chuckled, in spite of herself. “Oh, no!” ot = quite Mathews.

REORGANIZATION OF LEGION IS PROPOSED Martin For Adjutant Committee Offers Plan to Revamp Veterans Body Proposal to revamp the state or- ganization of the American Legion by eliminating the present executive com- mittee of the veterans organization and substituting a larger group in its Place will be made at the state con- vention to be held next month at Williston, it was announced Thursday by the “Martin for Adjutant” com- mittee with headquarters here. Under the present set-up the execu- tive committee consists of one man from each of the three former con- gressional districts. Under the reor- ganization plan the state Legion de- puties in each of the six judicial dis- tricts would constitute the executive committee. Contention is made that this would bring the state organization of the Legion closer to the individual veter- an and is in line with the proposal by the Martin committee to “substitute control from the bottorh for control from the top,” Milton Rue, chairman, said. Proposal also will be advanced: to establish a state legion magazine, which will be sent to every member of the North Dakota Legion without an increase in the dues to be charged. This magazine will carry news of the state organization, financial reports and other information. Proposals and suggestions from individual legion- naires would be a feature of the pro- Posed publication. Another suggestion made by the committee is that arrangements be made whereby the state organization will assist individual posts in raising money to finance their needs. A legislative committee to speak for the veterans on matters presented to the state legislature also is proposed. 96,621 New Units Sold by Chevrolet Registrations of new Chevrolet passenger cars and trucks in the first quarter this year accounted for 37.2 per cent of the total of the industry and exceeded the combined registra- tions of the next three leading makes, according to a statement released to- day hy the Chevrolet Motor company.
