fGOd gives 1hiS call to man, after a little span"
lis the way one of the poets has of Saying "a we'll
knncMm TRUTH. And yet how many of luis are there
who live every day tho we're going to struggle
along on this old territorial ball forever and
forever. We are graspng after the almighty dollar
in an effort to 1lore UP wealth which We can
never take with Our shrouds are made with
out pockets. We wcrry and stew and tor THAT
which after we get it, Statistics not. just
few more hundred dollars, just another farm
two and will have enough ito satisfy us, and we
think when reach THAT goal We'll be in a posi-
tion to live perfectly happy. But the time never
comes with the majority of Father Time with
his relentless scythe comes along before the time
of perfect contentment arrives, and We more.
The only way we be happy is in contributing to
the happiness OF others. A little ray of sunshine
scattered every day along the pathway of some
poor unfortunate is of vastly more Importance than
the piling I'D of great wealth. God made His earth
for MAJ, u e for little span' words of the poet
SHOULD Ect I've forgotten.
He who circula tes scandal is not only repre-
hensible but should be ignored by all who
in contact with him. His invidous tongue used in
circulating slanderous reports about innocent par
ties is sharper than serpent's tooth. If
steals your fortune from you you may regain that
culprit punished, but should he by his ISLANDERS
damage you of character There is uphill work for
you ito undo the injury he has dome you. This fac:
grows out of human nature's readiness to believe
evil. -Stanley Sun.

Low prices mean hard times. All countries hav-
ing low prices the vast majority Of the people iv-
ing in those countries are down In the depths OF
poverty. China, Japan and Russia countries
that illustrate this point.
The United States of America, the grandest
country on which the sun ever shown, Is a country
of high wages and high prices If high prices are
to be condemned general principles, why do
many millions OF people leave their homes where
low prices prevail ana take up their home in this
country Of high prices.
Mayor Gaynor Of New York recently delivered an
address before the Chamber of Commerce in syria.
cuse speaking of this country, he said: But
one correctly informed of the past can take
morose view of this present time of the fu
ture. The general of the people were never
better fed clothed and housed than today. The
ject Of high prices seems to be engrossing the
mind of the very able man who Is now president Of
the United States. If the causes of present high
prices be natural and normal, nothing is to be
feared therefrom. High prices are by no means
always an evil while low prices often are Mr..
Gaynor thinks that perhaps some Of the high
prices due to illegal combinations, but that
in the main they normal and the great rise
in prices is due in large part to the enormous out
put Of gold in the world. The gold production for
the world is $50O,0O0,O 900 annually, most of this
~
advance by Of the stimulus given. Expand
ing currency means higher prices.
T. F. Renwald, prominent Minot real estate
DEALER who has watched the advance In the price
of land i'm this part of the state closely for the
past eight years, says that land is certain
to go up several more nOtches during the present
year Mr.. RenWald mentioned the time less than
five years ago, when of the best quarter Sec
items of land the North Prairie could be bought
for $500 apiece. Today the price is nearer five
Thousand dollars. Every year brings its advance
i'm price. With crop failures to discredit
but on the other hand with excellent crops every
year and prices of farm products high
farmer could wish, it appears that northwestern
North Dakota has come into her own and to stay.
An acre of virgin soil ought to produce twelve
Bushels of flax to the acre, which at the present price
of flax will very NEARLY pay for that acre of land
from the first years CROP North Dakota offers the
very best kind of investment in farm lands
of amy state i'm the Union today The crops are
certain and the price of the land is yet Within reach
of the with ordinary means. In but few
years, however, land will be selling on a par
with these of Iowa and other eastern states. There's
no two ways about 1T.

CREW PROSPECTS
BRIGHT At i. c.
Oarsmen Are in Daily Training for
Annual Race with Car
dinaI Squad

BERKELEY, Sept 14,-Crew pros
poets at the University of California
for the coming year are very bright.
Plans are being launched to bring
about the annual race between Cali
fornia and Stanford on Oakland estu-
ary. Although boating at the univer-
sity has been dropped as one of the
recognized intercollegiate sports, the
boating club by its untiring efforts has
done much to keep up interest In the
sport. With the election of Captain
Davidson one of the strongest oarsmen
of former years, and the return of
many prominent members of the 'OS
and 'O9 crews California can put on the
water one of the strongest crews that
has ever represented the state instl-
tuition.
Already candidates are hard at work
on the new rowing machines when
have been recently installed in Harmon
gymnasium. With the cutting down OF
the freshman football squad many
promising men have begun actlVe
training on the machines and will have
their first tryout on the water Wllhlh
the coming week.
Captain Davidson said:
Fall training will be light, but az
ter the Christmas holidays, when the
raw material will have gained it's fun
damental knowledge of blade work
and the intricacies of the sliding seat
active work on the estuary will begin
At present the men will practice daily
on the machines with an occasional
eros country run to vary the monot-
ony of the indoor work"
AS yet the coaching problem is un-
solved. Coxswain McSpadden, who
so ably coached the crew last year.
has graduated.
Former Big C boating men who have
registered this year and who have Sig
nified their intention of resuming crew
work are: Captain Davidson 10, for
mer Captain II, II. Ashley, 10. !. @.
Markwart 10, who rowed in such GOOD
form for the last two years in the
bow position, and D. Hardy II, NO
in the '09 boat. Other promising can
didates who have signed UP are d
Ball II, S. Colt 10, r. Blake 10. 70. A.

The first round went by without any'
fatalities being recorded, but the Vis-
itors found their way into the bell
ringers stall in the second and tore
off couple that looked good for vic
tory. Cameron laid his six feet some
thing against one of Tozer's choicest
and slammed out a hit to left that
called for the initial pillow. Cutshaw
laid down his life to send his pal on
notch, and Pfyl lived up to his repu-
tation by whanging q nice one to the
center field fence, grabbing two sacks
and scoring Cameron. Pfyl attempted
to pinch third on the first opportunity
offered, and Hughey Smith let him
make that station and home to boot
because of a bum peg to Hallinan,
which got away from the fielder and
allowed the runner to score.
The Angels were retired one, two,
three in their half of the frame, and
in the early part of the third Oakland
made it look more like a victory for
the enemy. Maggert, first up, teased
Tozer into slipping him transportation,
and Wares laid down a sacrifice to
advance him. Smiths poor peg to
third allowed Maggert to annex the
third pillow on a steal, but Hughey
partially redeemed himself by hooking
Willie Hogan's hard foul. Cameron
was not to be denied and drew his
right, to score Maggert, and despite
Delmas' bum heave of Cutshaw's wal
lop the side was retired without fur
ther damage.
This made Berry's boys rather sore
and they came through in their half
of the third with all kinds of threats
and one tally. Delmas, to atone for
his poor winging, ripped off walloper
that was too hot for Wares to handle
and went to second when Smith sac
rificed. Tozers infield out sent Del to
third. and when Daley tore off a nice
double by third he registered.
Another for the Angels in the fourth.
With Dillon down, Cutshaw's tumble
gave Murphy his life on the bags,
and after he had stolen and Hallinan
whjffed he scored on Delmas' pretty
slam to right.
1t was all tie after Los Angeles bat
ters had manipulated the willow in
their part of the fifth frame. Daley

field championships in New Orleans in
October may also be seen in dual
meet with the Boston Athletic aSsocla-

Olympic club is personally interesting
himself in the undertaking and has
announced that the club would char
ter a special car for the trip east. Sew
