The most frequent occurrence heard
OF now a days seems to be automobile
accidents. Two collisions n one urn
turtle made up the total here at Lang
don during county fair week. There
was no injury to the occupants or loss of
life fortunately, but still the lesson can
be learned. Still fresh IN the minds of
our readers there is the tragic event of
but a week ago when four deaths re-
suited from an automobile accident at
toilette, in Pembina county. when the
car being driven onto the ferry in cross
ing the Red river ran off the ferry into
the river. Only one of the occupants
escaped and the homes of two respected
families in the town Of Drayton for the
past thirty years are now mourning the
loss of loved ones 1t is one of the
saddest events ohronicled in the history
OF Pembina county and it should be
sufficiently impressive to cause every
automobile driver to exercise extreme
care and caution in driving over I'M
known roads.

BIRTH OF THE GRAND CANYON.
Natures Mighty Forces That Wrecked
the Crust Of the Earth.

nc
the Crust Of the Earth.
How do you explain it," inquired
one on meeting Sir John Murray, the
eminent English geologist and presi-
dent Of the Royal Geographical so
ciety. referring to the Grand Canyon
Of the Colorado. This was briefly the
answer. though not in his words:
'On either side Of the wide plain ex-
tending from sixty to a hundred miles
to the right and left of the canyon
evidences of severe volcanic action are
visible. In the center was a plateau,
but you now look down upon it as the
vast chasm of the canyon. Thrice the
volcanic forces Of nature, operating on
either side, violently and with tremen-
dous power, forced this plateau up
ward. and finally in one c%yclopic, ire
mendous u%pheaval the plateau parted,
and the Grand canyon. the wonder and
mystery of the world. was born.
Imagine a loaf Of dough rising 81
lently under the continuous pressure
of he yeast until finally the crust is
broken and the loaf divided into two.
Then look at this broken crust of
mother earth. In the early days a
vast area embracing a great portion of
the interior Of the American continent
was covered with water. 1t was a
great sea. All over the canyon fossil
oyster shells proved this contention.
The Grand canyon opened; the waters
OF the inland sea rushed through in a
tearing food and carved the fantastic
forms you now see."
h questioner further inquired of
Sir John, mo doubt this was all very
remote, in the early ages of the
world?"
"Oh, no." said Sir John. Modern,
quite modern-not more than twenty
or thirty million years agow-Leslie's

The Ryder journal tells about how 1T
was stung the other day by a fake rail-
road contractor, who handed the Jour-
nal man a story about the Soo's extern
sion from Ryder west this fall. After
awakening to the fact that there was
nothing doing the journal wishes its
informant a no worse fate than that a
thirteen story brick building may fall on
him, one brick at a time. The Langdon

Burning Up Gold.

Burning a small piece Of gold leaf is
a custom observed by the Chinese at
certain anniversary celebrations. and
it is estimated that gold to the value
of $1O.0OO.OOO is destroyed annually in
this way. This estimate is based on
the assumption that each individual of
a total population of 440,OOO.OOO burns
at each Of two anniversaries a piece Of
gold leaf weighing .309 grain. making
a total Of 271.000.00O grains. A five
dollar gold piece weighs 100 grains

All bank notes are based on govern.
ment credit and not on coin. Interest
bearing bonds are deposited in the
United States treasury and bank notes
to the par value of the bonds are issued
at lass than two per cent. Why not
have the government treat the farmer and
business man the same as it does the
banker? A farmers mortgage is as good
as the government bond for the amount
of cash he ordinarily needs. This is the
position taken by President Wilson.

Crete's Long Siege.

Crete endured the longest siege on
record, beside which Troy's ten years
seem but a skirmish. In 1913 the
Turks. attempting to conquer the is
land, laid siege to the capital city of
Gambia. which, however. did not sur
render until September. 1869. after
twenty-one years. Again in 1921, when
the Cretans revolted. the defeated
Turks were able to hold the fortified
cities against all attacks, and many Of
them were still u%ncaptured when the
powers interviewed nine years later.
