Hands Across the Prairie Few situations offer better illustra- tion of the cleansing value of honest competition than the current rela- tions between Bismarck and James- town. Less than two years ago there was bitter feeling between many resi- dents of the two communities as a result of the capitol removal effort. Some individuals in each city vowed that never again would they do busi- ness with a concern in the rival town. Bismarck citizens were par- ticularly aggrieved because they felt they were being unfairly attacked in the enjoyment of their homes and their livelihoods. Some Jamestown citizens, roused. ‘Weekly by mail in state, per year $1.00 . 150 During the last few years it has been a popular stunt to make up lists of the ten “best books’—the books that you would take along if you were going to be exiled to that fabu- lous desert island for the rest of your life. Now comes “The Drifter,” writer of an engaging weekly column in The Nation, to suggest that it can be more fun to make up a list of ten famous books that one has never read and never intends to read. This, it seems to us, is a pretty sound idea. The library shelves are full of great classies to which all Sf us give lip service, and with which we like to have people think that we are thoroughly familiar; wouldn't it be @ boon to the cause of frankness if we should sit down and tabulate, in all honesty, those classics which we never quite got around to? To be sure, such honesty might de- stroy a lot of highbrow poses. But it would be exceedingly refreshing, nevertheless; and a lot of people would be happier if they could be relieved of the strain of pretending a familiarity with “Tom Jones,” “The Return of the Native” and “Paradise Lost.” Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors.

Letters should be brief and written of its major communities so sharply divided, so pitted against each othet in aggressive combat. Then came the election and a clearing of the skies. Bitterness waned and most folks saw the ab- surdity of it all. After all, the two communities were neighbors, bound by @ common interest for the ad- vancement of North Dakota. In both citles those hectic days seem long ago and far away. Now they reach hands across the prairie to each other and are friend- Jy rivals. They understand and ap- preciate each other on the common basis of American friendship, and cementing it all is a new argument, that of which city has the best base- ball team. This contest seems so close that, whichever city wins in the end, the loser will have little to be sorry for and the winner no cause for bragging. What could be fairer ‘than that? Emphasizing the change in attitude which two years can bring are the receptions which Bismarck recently gave Jamestown's baseball rooters and that for local fans at Jamestown last Sunday. ‘The Capital City made honored visitors of its erstwhile foes and hopes they enjoyed the entertain- ment accorded them here, Jamestown’s reception for Bis- marck last Sunday could hardly have been surpassed. There was friendli- ness in it, and good will and good wishes for success in everything— except that baseball game. It is better so, for Jamestown and Bismarck have far more reason to pull together than to fight each other, It is as bad for a city to har- bor a grudge as for the individual to sear his soul with morose contem- plation. By their present attitude Bismarck and Jamestown are setting an excellent example of tolerance and good will. Two Special Elections Residents of Bismarck and many other North Dakota cities will have ample opportunity to exercise their talent in marking ballots in this “off” election year. First on the list is the special school bond election for September 14, to be followed eight days later by the special state election on re- ferred and initiated measures. In each case the electorate will have opportunity to express itself on matters of policy without regard to the personalities which so often jumble the picture at regular elec- tions. Unswayed by prejudices for or against any individual, the voter can sit down, reason the issues out for himself and cast his ballot accord- ingly. Present indications are that he will be able to do so without inter- Roosevelt building program. No one will take that sort of prop- aganda very seriously outside of Britain and Japan, but to keep the record straight it is perhaps worth while to repeat that the Roosevelt building program is under the quota agreed to by the London and Tokio governments, and that the Roosevelt program was launched not before but long after those foreign powers had been building new ships. Mr. Hector C. Bywater, generally recognized as the leading British na- val writer, in the Daily Telegraph of London predicts a British building program of 25 cruisers, 15 to 18 new destroyers annually and other naval units in proportion. He says: “Little hope now remains that na- val armaments can be graduated by treaties. The sole effect of these to date has been to emasculate the British navy and rejuvenate all the other fleets. It is felt, indeed, that the latest American and Japanese programs have administered a death blow to naval limitation by agree- ment.” There are several adequate answers to the foreign charge that the United States is wrecking the hopes of dis- A READER TELLS THE DOCTOR A reader sends in a bit of enlighten- ment: Our family doctor objects to the use of any salve with petroleum base, especially on large area, as on chest. He says the skin can not function thru petroleum as thru animal fat, and when sick with pneumonia or influenza, one needs every possible square inch of skin. He says remedial value of menthol, ete., is more than off- set by loss of skin area. This seems important. Think of the poor kids with terrible coughs whose fond but misguided mamas smear a thick coat of pore-cloge- ing grease on their poor little chests, putting a third of their pores out of commission, throw- ing extra load on kidneys and prolonging the illness. I cannot agree with your teach- ings on oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air we breathe. You say the presence of carbon dioxide in in- creased volume in the air acts as a armament. But we can pass over the pertinent facts that the belated American building program will not bring the American navy up to the treaty quota, and that congress spe- cifically provided in the building au- thorization for suspension of con- struction in event of a new limita- tion treaty. We can even ignore the vital fact that the United States for 10 years has urged and urged in vain the foreign powers to accept any kind of actual disarmament. Forget all the past and the mutual jockeying of the naval powers for position, discount all the big navy propaganda in all countries, includ- ing the United States, and judge the United States and other powers sole- ly on the basis of present policy. The United States government has made a standing offer to disarm by agreement as much as any other na- tion at any time. That is the test, Disarmament is not a matter of talk but of action. Disarmament admits of no alibi. If the other nations sin- cerely want joint naval reduction they have only to accept our offer. It is significant that America has been most anxious for disarmament to avoid @ naval race which America, as the world’s richest nation, prob- ably could win. But America’s pleas for 10 years have failed. What more can America do? America cannot force disarmament upon the other powers by talk. America cannot even force arms limitation on the other powers by example; when we re- frained from building up to our treaty quota the others ignored our example and went on building. Doubtless the large navy policies of the other powers are dictated less by outright militarism than by fears resulting from the temporary break- down of the world’s peace machinery. Here is an opportunity for the peace groups of this and other coun- tries. Their leadership is waning. Obviously the cause of world peace is being retarded by the in- ability of peace proponents to get together on a common program. In this country, as in others, one gro still has faith in and desires to work through a revitalized League of Na- tions. Another group believes that all peace moves since the stimulant, increasing rapidity and depth of breathing, thus offsetting lack of oxygen. As if six persons could work all day in a small air tight office and, merely by breath- ing faster and deeper, feel as well as though they had worked in a well ventilated room! As a matter fact, breathing be- comes more difficult, mind less keen, eyes tire faster, appetite Poorer, etc., and nausea. Get the————Life Insurance Co's literature and study up. I am sure they are interested in longevity. Brushing teeth may not do any good, but it certainly is disgust- ing to be forced to talk with a Person whose teeth are packed with decaying food. Phew! (Cc. L. BD Probably C. L. E. means petrolatum base, not petroleum. Soft petrolatum is the common base for ointments or salves. In England it is called paraffin or soft paraffin. The liquid petro- Jatum, commonly known as mineral oil in this country, is also called liquid paraffin in England. I do not usder- stand why the doctor should @bjett to the use of salve or ointment with petrolatum base if he does not object to similar remedies made with lard, olive oil or other animal or vegetable fats as base. I am sure our corres- pondent has a wrong impression if he imagines the objection is “plugging of the pores.” No physician seriously imagines any breathing is done thru the skin. C. L. E. ascribes to Ole Doc Brady some weird teachings concerning the carbon dioxide in the air we breathe. I have never made any such conten- tion. In resuscitation, of course, the admixture of from 5 to 10 of carbon dioxide with the air or the oxygen the subject inhales under prone-pressure manipulation is a great help. It stimulates deeper and more rapid breathing in of the air or oxygen arti- ficial respiration compels the dead or unconscious subject to breathe. But I have never contended that an in- creased volume of carbon dioxide in the air of a room is beneficial in any circumstances. However, the familiar effects of vitiated or foul air, men- ference from high-powered cam-/| great war have been along the wrong | tioned by C. L.

She hopes, however, that handsome Jack Laurence, a young mper whom she only met once— and the only man she ever wanted to kiss her—will rescue her from Blaine. When Jack f: to appear, she turns, in desperation, to Jim- mie Warren, her Aunt Pamela's fascinating husband. They become infatuated and Pat breaks her gagement, Aunt Pam is suspicious but blames herself for warning Pat that love fades, inferring that her iage to Jimmie had failed. Feeling that Pam no longer cares, Jimmie and Pat see no wrong in their “love”. Then Jack appears, but Pat tells him ‘he is too late— the emotion he awakened, blos- somed to love under another's kiss. Jack, claiming he is the one Pat really cares for, refuses to give up, and the next day moves to her ho- tel. The contest between Jack and Jimmie for Pat’s love is on. Pamela looks on in painful amazement, realizing she still loves her hus- band. Pat leaves the Warrens’ home where she had been since her father’s absence, and returns to the hotel, realizing that Jimmie cannot be romantic with her, as long as she is under his protection. To avoid gossip, Pamela decides to have her house redecorated, so she and Jim- mie also move to the hotel. Pat now openly appropriates Jimmie, but Jack makes it a point to be with them always. Pat plans to ride mornings to give Jimmie the oppor- tunity to be with her alone but, be- fore he can say a word, Jack offers to accompany her. As the days go by, Pat looks forward to her rides with Jack. He never mentions his love, but, finally, after two weeks, way: T’'ve hoped so long, but only on these rides are you yourself and free. I just wanted to say I shal always love you, Pat. That’s all.” Pat feels that he is giving up; she|*°, is torn between pity for him and resentment because he is leaving her involved with a married man, CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE “There’s Pat now,” Pam said ine differently. Jim's eyes followed hers to a ver- anda thrust out from the hotel like @ gigantic finger pointing toward the sea, high above and paralleling the pavilion, Midway between the veranda and the ground, Pat hesi- tated like a stage star pausing on the stairway to give her audience full benefit of the picture she made. At the foot of the steps Arthur Savage waited, his boyish form bel- ligerently upright, his dark face unsmiling. After her fluttering and nicely timed pause, Pat descended, nodding with the sweet and casual patronage of a princess to the young man, And not one of those prying eyes in the pavilion could have guessed that this cool appear- ing young person had that after- noon reached a climax, and a des- perate resolve. She had waited for Jimmie to contrive a private talk with her. But, though he sought her out publicly, he ne even asked her to dance wherein they might have had a few whispered words, She could no longer live on that brief assurance given her at the villa. She had to know what was in his mind. If he wouldn’t ask her for a dance, she would ask him where he couldn’t refuse. Arthur followed her to Mrs. War- ren’s table, and sat down in glow- ering silence. “Come on, Jimmie!

But a needle thrust for days that this passionate son of a Spanish mother might explode at any moment and start the whole winter colony snickering. He had followed Pat about like # lovesick poodle whose mistress has forgot- ten his existence. She made her voice steady. “Do you take lemon?” “I don’t want any tea. Mrs. War- ren, how long are you going to let this goon?” ~ Her heart seemed to stop. “I think, after all, I’d like to dance this,” she said with a bland smile. “The music is rather good.” “I want to talk to you,” he said doggedly, but rose with her. She linked her hand in his arm, her face a mirror of light banter. “And this is no place to talk,” sh whispered. In louder to she added: “When the dance is over, if you care to, you may act ss my cavalier for a stroll through the grounds. The air is rather humid, don’t you think? Pat can pour fresh tea for herself and Jimmie.” The boy, though a fine dancer, seemed unable to keep step. He made no effort to answer Mra. War- ren’s flow of small talk. Several times they passed Warren and Pat, who were so absorbed that they did not see them. “They have no sense of decency even,” thought Pamela, with bitter- watching them from beneath lowered lids. Warren held Patricia up in a hungry embrace. His eyes devoured . His breath was labored; and the dark vein on his brow throbbed painfully. Looking up into his ardent down- bent face, Patricia’s strength ran out of her. She closed her eyes with a little sigh of utter content, sag- ging against him, All the hurt of his silence these days past was for- gotten, He loved her. He loved her. “Oh, Jimmie, let’ eak out,” she whispered. For answer he drew her closer, pressing his face down against hers, He forgot where they were, forgot all those secretive eyes that followed them. In an agony of ecstasy she nestled against his shoulder. Her knees gave. The pa- vilion began spinning around and around, The dancers were @ mass of indistinguishable figures. “Oh, Jimmie, get me out. I’m go- ing to faint.” Sharply Warren came back to reality. Pat was no longer dancing. Lifting her clear of the floor, looked down in alarm at the still white face resting on his shoulder. Good heavens! had she already fainted? What should he do? How get her out without attracting at- tention? It would be bad enough to leave the pavilion under all those prying eyes, even if she could walk. His eyes swept the faces at the tables. He caught the furtive smiles turned on them. Keeping to the cen- ter of the dancers as much as pos- sible, he thought to keep those at the tables from seeing that he car- tied her. But now people were star- ing openly. That white, still face on his shoulder was inescapable. Fool! He should have known better. What was he to do? His eyes sought Pam, as if to implore her help. She passed him without looking. Which told him she had seen. He was aware of a surge of pitying love for her and anger toward Pat. Had she no sense? Ob! why had he exposed himself to this? But how could he have guessed she was 80 over- wrought? Somehow, he must get her out before the music stopped, leaving them exposed. He bent down to her, “Pat! Pat! For heaven’s sake, Pat, get hold of yourself! Everybody's staring.” “I don’t care,” she sighed. “I love you and I don’t care who knows it.” He breathed relievedly at sound of her voice, “But you must care. We'll get out. Stand up, Pat. I can’t carry you out like this.” “Why not?” She did not open her eyes, nor move, “I’m going to take you back to our table and you down,” he said, “You are making fools of both of us publicly.” He spoke furiously. The new note in his voice steadied her. He was steering her toward their table. Fea Sraticate, Ine — To boy King Features |
