All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved, M. Blum’s Mistake Luckily, American politicians seldom make excursions into literature. Therefore they escape the danger of getting them- selves into the sort of jam which Premier Leon Blum, of France, is in right now. Away back in 1912, when he did not dream that he would one day govern the republic, Premier Blum wrote a “Treatise on Marriage.” It was a frank, unorthodox, and frolicsome work, and the French people—who, with all their faults, do not go to books for their sex life—ignored it. But now that M. Blum is prime minister, the book has been re-discovered and is going like hot cakes. It is in its 20th edition, and the premier wishes * most ardently that he had never set pen to paper. That sort of thing should be a warning to all politicians. Never, never write a book—on marriage or anything else—if you plan to seek elective office. It will be dug up, some day, and come back to haunt you like a ghost‘from your unregenerate past. What you put down on paper can be immortal—at a time when you most earnestly wish that it would die. Curb on Collegians Judges ‘and police officials who hold forth in college towns might be interested in remarks made from the bench recently by Judge Arthur P. Stone of Cambridge, Mass. Some of the exuberant lads from Harvard and Massachu- setts Tech got riotous the other night, threw part of Cambridge into a mild turmoil, destroyed a bit of property and fought with the coppers. Five of them landed in court; and when they came before Judge Stone he promptly fined them, remarking that “there seems to be some idea that there is something sacred” about thé person of a college student but that he, as a judge, did not in any way share in the idea. : That idea, it might be remarked, is usually held by no one but the collegians themselves. And so almost every college town has known moments in which thoughtless students made rowdies of themselves, expecting that the town authorities would make allowances simply because they were students. Wider adoption of Judge Stone's attitude might abate such nuisances. ‘Mind-Reading’ Judge To get an idea of the way in which a dictatorship destroys common liberties, consider the recent German case in which a number of citizens were sentenced to prison—for terms rang- ing from two to six years—because they had listened to radio programs from Moscow. To a man accustomed to American freedom, the idea that a man could be imprisoned merely for listening to a radio broad- cast is shocking enough. But the shock becomes greater when we read that the judge who passed sentence admitted that there is not, even in Germany, a law against listening to the broad- | cast in question. Nevertheless, the act looked to him like “pre- | 37 SENIORS WILL GET DIPLOMAS IN BURLEIGH COUNTY Exercises Scheduled at Eight Schools on Thursday, Friday, Saturday Thirty-seven boys and girls will re- ceive their high school diplomas in graduation exercises at eight Bur- leigh county high schools Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Miss Marie Hu- ber, county superintendent of schools, announced Tuesday.

YOUTH, MONEY AND DEMOCRATS CALLED REPUBLICAN NEEDS Rebuilding Wrecked Machine in 46 States Immediate Job of Party Workers New York, May 25.—(7)—Youth, money and some “constitutional” Democrate—those are three things sought by many Republican leaders over the nation to bring the party back to fighting power after the walloping last November. 8o, a state- by-state survey showed Tuesday.

Giants Get One Hit Losing to Cleveland One lone hit was all that stood in the way of a no-hit, no-run game for Oleson, Cleveland pitcher, as he hurled Cleveland’s baseball team to a 7 to 1 victory over the Grove Giants Sunday. It was the first defeat of the season for the penitentiary nine. Backed up by fine support from his mates, who knocked out 12 base its, Oleson sent 16 penitentiary battsmen down ewinging while Flan- ders, on the mound for the Giants, struck out seven and Moore five.

Basis of Prosperity If price declines and gloomy predictions emanating from the stock market have worried you, of late, you might draw com- fort from the current Business Bulletin of the Cleveland Trust Company. This bulletin points out that all the figures of production and profits point to continued prosperity. Iron and steel mills are running close to capacity. The auto industry is having a big year. Construction is improving. The railroads are carry- ing more freight and making more money. Retail trade is im- proving. And as long as these fundamentals go on in this way, no one need be afraid. “Probably the chief cause of our worries,” remarks the Bulletin, “is that most of us had forgotten that even during oo there are no such things as continuously rising mar- ets.” Sailing Ship Comeback No man with a taste for the flavor of by-gone days can| fail to be interested in the news that for the first time in years a commercial sailing vessel is now operating on the Great Lakes. The vessel is the three-masted schooner J. T. Wing, which cleared from Detroit the other day to go to the St. Mary’s river for a cargo of pulpwood for Green Bay, Wis. A few decades ago the lakes, like the ocean, had whole fleets of sailing ships. Steam power left them even less room to ope- rate profitably on the lakes, however, than on salt water, and the few survivors have been tied up for years. It would be im- mensely interesting to see a revival in this picturesque type of carrier—and, just incidentally, it would provide the lakes with an excellent training ground for seamen. soa ie eg mle, er mer ; onc ra nts eran if we take the myriad “Beer on won STN ea steno mt er mie 1g hepato peeve A, & Me, ho et credits for eine, are Counting all the world fatr there fer that proceed globe-girdiing aliens rate” DO enough landing spaces | Smith, c Oelson, p.

Flame from a gas burner used to heat air for lifting the balloon touched a pocket or fold in the bag just as the ground crew began at- taching the basket in: which Professor Piccard was to have explored the sub- stratosphere. A fiercely burning fire engulfed the 14,000-cubic yard rubber silk bag in a few seconds. It was reduced to charred wreckage. No one was injured. Both Piccard and Max Cosyns, his young associate, were standing close to the balloon when the lower part of the envelope burst into flame. i Insufficient protection for the gas burner and a sudden gust of the light southerly breeze which caused a fold in the nearly-filled bag were blamed for the fire by Cosyns. Fifty soldiers hanging onto ropes to hold down the bag had to flee for their lives. Professor Piccard had described the attempt, in which he did not expect to go higher 20,000 feet, as the first in which a mn filled with heated air had been utilized for an ascension to a great altitude. 11 MORE EXECUTED Moscow, May 25.—(?)—Eleven per- sons were reported Tuesday to have been executed at Khabarovsk in the far east, bringing to 55 the number put to death in Siberia within the last few days on charges of sabotage under the eee of Japanese intelligence agent SCOTTSBORO eed SET better than the | ox¢1 iday undergoing {slight disturbance in one of his eyes. i i g i ab iH Wl Eee Ez t INCREASED LEVY ON BUSINESS ASKED BY GOVERNOR BENSON Leal Minnesota Legislature Formed on Same Basis as During Regular Session St. Paul, May 2.—(7)—Gov.

Let us omit the symptoms and assume for purpose of instruction that you are a wee bit too old, aging too fast, drifting into the early stge of cardiovascular degeneration. Overeating is probably an im~- Boe oe ca a oaporan: tty nn that eating (6 tepoeaie) ie mowe Se eating. Snatching # meal in a few minutes where at least twenty minutes is necessary for proper eating, is a habit that makes many individuals prema- turely old. Alas, this bad habit is acquired at home in many instances, be- cause in some parents fail to establish the arbitrary rule that every one shall remain at table at least twenty minutes whether he needs that much time to eat or not. This rule is an excellent one in the health training of children, Every member of the family must not only remain at table twenty minutes, but of course must be clean and properly dressed and use good man- ners while eating. Check over these factors in your own case, reader. It will do you no harm to survey your eating habits. Hasty eating is first. Second is i ficient mastication of soli¢ foods which require mastication (meat, fowl, fish requires less mastication, of course, than vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts). Too often mastication is deficient because one or more teeth are decayed and neglected, or one or more teeth are missing and not replaced with function- spy aera artificial teeth—from motives of ignorance of hygiene or poverty or both. ‘Third factor of degeneration is the modern custom of using refined food for most of the calories in the daily meals—food which is ready to wolf and neither requires nor deserves mastication; food which has been robbed of most of its natural minerals and vitamins. What proportion of your daily oS on of natural, unrefined foods from which nothing has been re- Social demands are responsible for much overeating—food is urged upon us at all times of the day and night whether we need it or want it or not, and it requires unusual strength of character to avoid more or less overin- dulgence urider these circumstances. ‘The habit of taking three meals a day or four meals a day, which is all right for active, growing children and for those who do honest work, is not the best habit for many sedentary folk who would be better off with two or 2% meals a day, breakfast and evening meal. Habit also leads many into eating dessert after a full and more than adequate meal—the lest defensible overeating.
