Paul Southworth Bliss hes an affinity for the insignificant. @ sym- pathy for the commonplace, a divina- tion that sets him apart from the average nian. What is so much prairie refuse to most North Dakotans becomes a mine of riches to Bismarck’s practical poet. The drab and the dross become colorful and valuable in his mind. In his seventh volume of verse, Colonel Bliss has again demonstrated his alchemy of being able to trans- mute the pestiferous tumbleweed into a thing of beauty. “The Rye Is the Sea,” his new opus, is not so generous in number of pés- torals as his last collection, “Cirrus From the West,” but it will be of wider appeal to North Dakotans from the standpoint of~s field to which it points the way. Practical Visionary Visionary is Colonel Bliss but prac- tical, too. Like Robert Burns, he can weave lyrics about chaff but unlike Burns, who never did come down to earth, Colonel Bliss can see the forest for the trees. Thus in “The Rye Is the Sea” he was not so much interested in re- cording his day-dreams as he was in making practical application of them. In his foreword he makes a special point of calling the reader's attention to the ‘physical treatment of the volume. As he says, “It has been created as an experiment in handcraft. It is in sharp contrast with, for example, “Cirrus From the West,” a genuinely excellent example of the best in ma- chine-made bookcraft. Uses Ordinary Materials “The Rye Is the Sea’ could be produced in a farm village. The bur- lap binding is the gunny-sack of agriculture. The bag of which the binding is a part has held in its time wheat and corn. The paper used is ordinary wrapping paper. The binding was done by persons who had their training in Works Progress adminis- tration library repair projects. The press is an old style Chandler and Price jobber.” Colonel Bliss is immensely inter- ested in stimulating the almost for- gotten home arts—particularly in North Dakota where the materials are available but where seif-educa- tion in manual accomplishments has reached the vanishing point. Any North Dakota writer, sincerely desirous of publishing his views, but lacking wealth or financial backing, should be encouraged by what Bliss has done. Bliss has demonstrated be- yond challenge that the materials are here. “Tf he (the writer) be genuinely in earnest he can do the work himself,” the colonel concludes. Matthews Illustrates Book Colonel Bliss has again had the good fortune of collmporation with Harold J. Matthews of Houston, Texas, who has illustrated previous Bliss’ works with woodcuts of sym- pathetic and excellent craftsmanship. Such material subjects as the rail- road yards in Bismarck, stagnant water-hole in Kidder county, a marsh and stubble give him inspiration to string his lyre. A student of astron- omy as well as botany, Bliss proves Our Annual End of Year 7 Clearance Sale It’s a bigger and better sale than ever because Robertson’s store is a bigger and better store than ever.

The contentment that Thoreau and Muir could find in the fields also has Bliss enthralled. He spills out his love of the outdoors in his “I Have Seen the Stars Again"— Set me hill-high Looking northward, Looking southward, West or east: Full endorsement was given to the legislative program of the North Da- kote Sheriff and Peace Officers, asso- clation by a group of 30 peagp officers from 12 Missouri Slope counties who met here Sunday. Approval of the proposed program and the election of Robert Gray, sheriff of Morton county, as legisla- tive delegate from this district follow- ed a general meeting during which the plan was outlined, ‘The association proposes to coordi- nate all state law enforcement agencies including the highway pa- trol, bureau of criminal identification and the drivers’ license law adminis- tration under a new department of justice and public safety. It also seeks to do away with the law enforcement officers of the state regulatory department in all branches except food inspection and all inspec- tors of the railroad and warehouse commission, turning those duties over to the county officers and members of the highway patrol. ri “Coordinating state law enforce- ment agencies and removing overlap- ping jobs will save the state money,” C. A. Miller, head of the bureau of criminal identification, told the peace officers here. During the session, officers from the various counties outlined what they considered the “glaring weak- nesses” of the present drivers’ license law. Second of the series of block meet- ings being conducted by the Sheriff and Peace Officers association was scheduled at Dickinson Monday. Of- ficers from nine southwestern coun- ties were expected to attend. Peace officers of the northwestern part of the state will meet in Minot Tuesday. Wednesday a meeting will be held in Grand Forks and Thursday a similar seasion is slated for Fargo. Set me thrill-high When the rush of day To the night sky, Has eased.

Just a run out of town and the fun might begin— I know that he reckons such sit- ting 1s sin.” The colonel introduces a new note in his work. with two dissertations— “Hunting Begins at Forty” and “Pish- ing Begins at Forty.” They are: amusing revelations of Bliss’ first ex- periences with gun afield and rod: asea.
