British Army's First Trousers.

Perhaps the army revolution OF deep
est interest to the soldier himself was
that effected in 1921. when for the first
time he was put In trousers. The an
nOuncement from the horse guards:
took the following remarkable form:
Ills majesty has been pleased to ap.
prove OF the discontinuancc of breech-
es. legsings and shoes rs part Of the
clothing Of the infantry soldiers and OF
blue gray cloth trousers and half boots
being substituted" In order to indem-
Nifty the ''clOthing c%olonels" for any
hardship which the new order might
cause it was decided that these gentle
men should no longer be called upon
to provide the waistcoat Of Tommy.
but that Tommy should himself supply
it out of his shilling Il day. TO reas'
sure him it was pointed out that he
was in Il position to do 81 with com
fort. because he would no longer have

Coupling up the school with the
home is the ambition of some North
educators. Their plan is to give cred.
credit in schools for duties performed
at home; then, when certain total
credits are secured, to permit the pu.
pill a vacation. 1t is contended this
will eliminate the ambition of the bad
boys to play hockey" that it will
create a love for duties that are now
regarded as the merest drudgery and
that, because it will teach boys and
girls how to perform the household
duties, it will eventually result in
solving the problem of the high cost
of living by creating more useful and
more s%elf-reliant and better equipped
citizens. 1t is planned to place a Ger.
tain value on each home chore and
household duty and give each child
a credit for the performance of any
or all Of these in proportion to the
work done. The advocates of the
system see immense advantages in
the idea and believe it's adoption will
lead to much needed reforms. 1t IS
predicted the plan will develop an en-
tirely new interest in both home and
school work and bring the two much
closer together.

The New York Evening Post says
the case Of Prof. VIM. II. Taft shows
that the once popular question, what
we should do with our eX~-presidents,
is o really so hard to answer as
many people have imagined. The
mar who has filled the highest office
in the gift of the nation should do
just what Mr.. Taft is doing or what
Mr.. Cleveland did in his time. He
may become actively connected with
academic life, or he may go into re.
tirement, or he may connect hiselt
with an influential journal, but from
any field he chooses it is right that
he shall come forward, as the i'm
pulse moves him, TO give his country
men the benefit of his views on the
broad questions of the day. When the
problem of how to dispose of our ex-
presidents came up in connection
with Mr.. Roosevelt, the difficulty was
that we were dealing not so much
with an ex-president as with a very
possible aspirant for the presidency.
If people had been convinced that
Mr.. Roosevelt was really and truly
"ex-,' there would have been none
to deny that a Contributing Editor
ship was.a very appropriate position
for n who would counsel his coun-
trynen without quite assuming the
aloOfness of the sage.

THEIR LOSS is OUR GAIN.

Up in Canada and especially in the
northwestern provinces, the bottom
seems to have fallen out of every
thing. Banks are refusing loans;
public works of all kinds have been
discontinued, because of the inability
Of municipalities to float the neces-
sary bonds; thousands Of men are out
Of work and almost destitute, and,
worst of all, the condition OF crops
is generally bad, owing to the frosts
and unfavorable weather ruling
through May and early June.
The curtailment of credit is by
some asserted to be the protest OF
Canada against the governments
pact with England involving the
building by Canada Of three dread
noughts. BY far the greater number,
however, believe that it is but the
bursting of a bubble, to-wit, the arti-
1icially inflated land prices and city
building booms that have caused such
an thrush of short end spectators
and credit gamblers. In other words,
the country cannot make good on the
claims made for her and a further eX.
tension of credit would only make the
final and inevitable reckoning that
much harder. Hence the deadlock.
Thousands of American citizens,
many of them from this state, will
be stung by this reaction; indeed,
many Of our own people are already
back in the United States Or getting
ready to make the return trip. They
come back sadder, poorer and wiser,
after their vain search for the pro-
verbal pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow. "
1t is a long lane that has no turn
ing and this reflex action means the
turn of the lane for North Dakota.
The foolish seekers for an imaginary
Ell Dorado have Jared farther and
Jared worse. They now realize that
all is not gold that glitters and that
the rich prairie lands of this state
have no equal further north.

been selected for the staging of "a

IS THIS YOUR MOTTO?
1.-THE NEXT CITY WEST"

Among the many nice things which
the Minneapolis Tribune has beer
saying of the capital city OF North
Dakota is the following taken from a
recent issue. The view taken by the
Tribune of the possibilities of Bis
marck are SO reasonable, the posi-
%pilities so apparent that it is pleasing
to contemplate the future of this city.
These are hard facts, they cannot be
denied successfully, and but remind
the reader that he is living in the
midst of great possibilities. 1.-THE
Next City West" should be the slogan
of all concerned. The Tribune says:
Twill Bismarck be the ext City
West? That is, the next City West
of st. Paul and Minneapolis as a
manufacturing and distributing point.
at is claimed that distances make
Cities, and Bismarck is about the dis.
lance from St. Paul and Minneapolis
that St. Paul and Athneapolis are
from Chicago.
minneapolis and St Paul are on a
Great river, and Bismarck is situated
on the Missouri river, navigable 500
miles Northwest of Bismarck, and
boasts of the largest fleet Of boats
with Headquarters at Bismarck, Of
any town on the Missouri.
Like Winnepeg, before its second
great boom started, Bismarck has not
a dwelling nor office empty.
at has six lines Of railroad diverg-
ing from the city and boasts of the
finest Hotel in five states. the Mcken-
zie being a seven-story steel concrete
structure.
Bismarck is the distributing point
for the whole Missouri slope-an en-
phe in itself, and it has many large
warehouses and wholesalers who
have either established their head
quarters there or branch warehouses.
The progress of North Dakota in
recent years has been Bismarck's
progress. The amount expended in
support of public schools in North Da-
kota in 1909 was $4,575,00O and the
value of school property in 1910 was
$7,624, 900. North Dakota schools
have an endowment of land worth
$50,O00,0 900, and Bismarck, being the
capital of the state, has $4,000 acres
Of land. the proceeds of which are
to be used for Capital Buildings.
"The North Dakota p%enitentiary,
located at Bismarck, has 10000 acres
of land set aside for it's buildings and
maintenance.
1.-THE Government has already locat'
ed a regimental post at Bismarck and
an Indian School and Is at present
erecting a $150,0OO Federal building.
