Friend Maker Announcement that Bismarck’s Drum and Bugle Corps will make a trip to Garrison this week, stopping at numerous towns en route to give concerts, emphasizes anew the splen- did service which this organization Without waterproof rouge, some girls haven't the face to go out in the rain, No Turnover Here One place in which the political turnover in this state did not ope- rate is the veterans’ service com- renders the capital city. For want of a more accurate term, these trips are commonly referred to as excellent publicity for Bismarck. This, of course, is true, but it does not get to the heart of the matter. Bismarck is in no dire need of public- ity. As the state capital it is North Dakota's biggest news center. More things of statewide importance hap- pen here than anywhere else in the state and so a common question is “what's going on in Bismarck?” We need do nothing in particular to have the rest of the state aware of us, But we do need friends and here is where the Legion’s musical organiza- tion shines. It is a friend-maker par excellence. Snappy in appearance and perform- ance, accommodating by disposition and containing a large number of men who carry friendliness in their hearts, it makes a good impression everywhere, People think more kind- ly of Bismarck when our drum corps. attends their local festivities and Bis- marck is credited with showing an in- terest in its neighbors. To make these trips requires time and no little effort on the part of the missionership, T. O. Kraabel having been reappointed to the place which he has held every since the session of 1926. The fact should bring satisfaction to a large number of ex-servicemen whom Kraabel has represented or whom he may represent in the mat- ter of claims against the federal gov- ernment. In this work he has proved efficient and helpful to North Da- kota veterans and the probability is that loud protest would have re- sulted had he been replaced at this time. Partly through Kraabel’s efforts, thousands of dollars come into this state monthly, helping to ease the burdens of those who suffered injury during the war. The total exceeds by many times the amount which this office costs the state annually. Strictly speaking, Kraabel performs no vital function of government but it has proved good business to main- tain this office. No other expendi- ture by the state has netted so large @ direct return. “Wheat and oats hit records for season” says a headline.

EGGS, MEAT AND NUTS Eggs, meat and nuts are all nitro- genous foods, thet is they contain considerable proportions of albumin- ous or protein nutriment. Yet some- how they are incompatible. Almost invariably nuts are opposed to the eating of eggs and meat as freely as one might wish. The nuts seem to divine by intuition, certainly not by physiology, that meat or eggs are very bad for you when they are good and downright poisonous when the are better. Every nut who goes into the healing or diet racket or the health food business bases his appeal to the customer on the theory that meat and eggs cause autointoxication, and Brum corps members, yet they respond | tically the same words were used to|every graduate of a high school or col- hobiy to frequent appeals as a matter af civic duty, often at a personal sac- Rifice. But even as we note the splendid services which this organization ren- ders, one wonders if it is fair to as- aign it the job of making Bismarck known as a friendly city and one glad to cooperate with folks in other towns. It might be a good idea if all of us would check up on the things we are doing and should not do, together with the things we should do and are not doing, to improve our already fine contacts with our friends in this sec- tion. Careful examination might develop means which would serve to still turther emphasize Bismarck’s posi- tion as the leading city in western ae Dakota. Face Lifting Assignment of North Dakota C. C.

Now if wheat and other farm products go up a little more we will be willing to admit it isn’t such a bad old world after all. In fact, it has been looking a lot better lately, Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regat to whether they agree or disagr with The Tribune's policies, Treasury Figures (New York Times) ‘With one month remaining of the current fiscal year, the federal defi- cit for 1932-33 stood at $1,684,000,000 on May 31, This figure makes a dis- tinctly favorable showing when com- Pared with a deficit of $2,685,000,000 for the corresponding period a year ago. The reduction amounts almost Precisely to $1,000,000,000, But so much of the government's expenditure now lies outside of the regular bud- agency as the Reconstruction Fi- nance Corporation, that a comparison of federal indebtedness is also pertin- ent. During the first eleven months of 1931-32 the national debt increased by $2,236,000,000. During the corre- sponding period of the present year it has increased by $2,366,000,000. There has been no let-up in the gov- ernment's borrowing, despite the more favorable showing made by the bud- get figures. The total debt now Stands at $21,853,000,000. This is the highest figure reached since 1923, though it is still about one-fifth below the post-war peak of $26,597,000,000 on Aug. 31, 1919. During the new fiscal year, which will begin next month, there is rea- son to believe that the deficit “within the budget” will be still further nar- rowed. Revenues, to be sure, are still disappointing. For reasons which are now clear even to those members of congress who have had blind faith in the ability of the income tax to pro- vide a dependable yield during a per- iod of depression, receipts from this important source have been declining. With respect to customs receipts, any marked improvement must apparent- ly wait upon a revision of tariffs. The new tax on beer has helped to in- crease miscellaneous receipts, but is @ relatively unimportant item com- pared with the larger revenue which would be made available by repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. On the side of expenditures, however, large economies are in prospect. Even if the increases made by the senate in the outlay for veterans’ relief should be upheld in the house and approved by the president, about $300,000,000 would still be saved next year in the largest single spending agency of the government. Salary reductions are expected to save an additional $125,- 000,000. With such further econo- mies as may prove to be politically practicable, the regular budget seems likely to be brought more closely into Delatice than in any fiscal year since 1929-30.

And he has found that those who recovered their normal skin tempera- ture slowly after the exposure caught cold; that others did not. Answer + Having settled that, will Schmidtty kindly tell us how he can tell when a person has a cold? That’s a mystery which no physician or health authority on this side of the Atlantic even dares to attempt to solve. And while we are on the sub- Ject, it is fair to remind all concerned, no one has as yet found any evidence that lowering the temperature in the skin produces any illness.

IN ~NEW | IL_ York New York, June 12—Visitors in town are inclined to stare in amaze- ment at the beauty of waitresses and cashiers, of salesgirls in the little shops around the rialto, and cigaret girls in the hotels and night spots. Nor do the visiting firemen seem dis- appointed when told that this profu- sion of pulchritude is due in con- siderable measure to the fact that the chorus-girl business is in a very bad way right now, After all, it’s pleasant to imagine that one’s waitress, smil- ing in gracious acknowledgment of a dime tip, has been in other days—and Probably will be again—1 more thankful for a bunch of orchids and @ lift to the theater in a Rolls Royce.

Thrown pon her own resources, Mary Lou Thurston, beautiful and vivacious orphan, applies for a position as companion to a semi- invalid in the palatial home of Mrs, Lorrimer at Westmill, Con- ‘icut. .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, calling her “Delight” and “wite.” Then he faints whe: 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 wewspaper reporter. Dr. Mathews tells Travers that as Delight was very young at the time of their marriage and since believed him dead, it is only fair to begin all over with friendship. Mrs. Lortimer acquaints Mary Lou with the details regarding Delight and her vain search for the girl. The following morning, Mary Lou is all set for her new role. Travers comes upon her at the dog ken- nels, CHAPTER XVIII. 6 H, how you startled me!” O were the first words she spoke to him.

It was amet eeiet, a little, enchant ingly husky. But memory plays us strange tricks and time had passed. He leaned against the high fenc- ing of the kennels and whipped his slender walking stick across the short grass, “We won't talk about it—now,” he said. “I just want you to know that I do Sonetant: I ane stand your—reticence an complete shock it all must have been to you.

And her realization of her good fortune brought stars to her eyes and curves to her red mouth. “Lorry—” she said, obediently. There was no withdrawal pos- sible now. She had made her bargain and sealed it with a hand- clasp. Mary Lou’s battered trunk, suitcase and box arrived safely at “Westwood House” forwarded by the faithful Larry, from whom she received a lengthy and wild letter, typed on yellow copy paper, de- manding, cajoling, warning and pleading. Did she realize what she was getting into? demanded Larry, frantically. Would she never grow up? Of all the crazy, mad, insane and.incredible schemes! However, count on him to stand by her, and, if necessary, to her out of this mess into which, idiotically, she appeared to have gota herself. ‘or himself, he could not believe a word of her explanation—that is, not with a sane and intelligent mind.

And now that she was forced to give a pere formance to this particularly im- Portant audience, she found her- self doing it creditably.
