Daddy's Bedtime
@, Jerry Changed
His Mind
About Bedtime

@AHn little stars were peeptng down from the sky to see that the little
boys and girls on earth were going peaceabIy to bed, as good children
should and as Jack and Evelyn generally did.
There" said daddy, pointing up at them; "just see how they
shine ana twinkle with interest Once on a time there vas a little how who
was never sleepy when it was, time to go to bed and was always sleepy when
1T was time to get up a .M#
His mother tried very hard to get him to bed at the right time BUT IL vas
a good deal Of trouble, and 70 one day she said: Jerry, I'm tired fussfng
about getting you to bed and up in the morning. This week you car 90 ia
bed ana get up yourself. But remember don't blame me If You don't like IL
as well as you think you WILL -
THAT night Jerry heard the clock strike Z, o TO- 1t was nearly II before
ne crept into bed. He went to sleep almost as soon as hs head touched the
pillow. No one called him in the morning and IL was 8 o'clock before he
crawled out Of bed.
When ne went downstairs he found that every one had breakfasted Tba

Isn't there any breakfast for mep Jerry asked
Certainly his mother answered, If you ret n n a hreakeas+ time

Jerry went of to school In spite OF his pleadings to be allowed To stay
home because Of being late. a"a
1T isn't my fault that you are lae' his mother said. You wanted TO be

A BLOW AT CHILD LABOR,

A report by the New York legisla-
tive commission to investigate labor
conditions in that state, which has Just
been made public. is a staggering blow
at child labor.
There is a law in that state resulat-
ing and restricting child labor, which
the report says has not been observed
by many of the Industrial enterprises.
especially the canning factories oper-
ating in the rural districts, and the
employment of mere babies, the com
mission says, has been the result. the
official statement being made that OF
the 1889 children found at work in
thirty-three sheds the oldest was IA
years of age and the youngest 8.
The commission recommends the
creation of an industrial board with
power to fit every industry.
The proper solution OF the child Ia
Dor problem is a difficult one, but nc
doubt it's solution would be hastened
if many reports like the one from the
New York commission should be made
az publicity of such conditions would
soon arouse public indignation to an
extent that protection would be secur.
ed for little children.
In paliation for the existing condi-
tions the commission explains tina;
many Of the canners are opposed to the
employment Of children, and half OF
them DO no do II, but q the canning
industry is largely devoted to the ex-

pioitation Of foreigners, the parents OF
the children make them work"
In other words, the child labor law
Of New York protects only the children
Of those parents who want the laws
protection. The little ones, whose par
ents are cruel enough to work them in
factories. the law does not reach. Then
they are the children Of q class the
canning industry is exploiting, any
way, and of cours that makes some
difference, for it must be. from the
tenor Of the report, that the child la
Dor law Of New York is designed TO
protect children of a certain class, and
to allow those of another class to sac
riice their lives to the cruelty and
greed of unrestrained Inc oppressive
industry.

Those who advertise successfully
find out the best modes OF advertis-
ing as an essential feature Of their
business, looking after it as carefully
as they do their buying and selling,
their contracting and complying with
contracts, of taking orders and filling
, orders and of displaying their wares.
for the purpose of selling merchan-
disc, it seems that the advertising
should be as distinct and emphatic
as a sign or the selling price of an
article.
Discussing this line, Nathaniel
g. Fowler, jr, writing in Printers
Ink, says:
Il maintain that the purchaser Of
a 1898 shirtwaist is more likely to
buy that waist if she is told what
that waist is and what it will cost her,
in a plain and businesslike manner,
than she is If the description of that
shirtwaist resembles a bouquet of hot
house flowers and the price is set in
foliage,
THE advertisers Of this country,
who have successfully advertised for
half a century, are, in the main, those
who have used short and simple
words, direct statements, clean-cut
and descriptive illustrations, and have
told their story as Robinson Crusoe
described his adventures, and as
Franklin told the world how he gain
ed his distinction"
1t might be said further in support
Of simplicity and directness in adver-
Using that the most effective and
successful ones are the plain stories
told by the alert business man in the
daily newspapers which constitute a.
component part Of the life of the COM
munity, and which speak each day in
plain terms to a great majority Of the
citizens.

TUESDAY, FEE. is, 1918.


Uncle Joe" Cannon, who is the re-
cipient of many well-deserved hon.
ors, now that he is about to go back
TO Danville as a private citizen, took
occasion to say recently, that every
political man has to be a partisan"
1t is a pity that the intellect Of this
vigorous man, who can still kick
higher than his head" has not kept
pace with his strong body.
1t is just this fallacy which brought
about the political downfall of Uncle
Joe. Politicians do not have to be
partisan. On the contrary the day of
the rabid partisan has gone-and gone,
t is to be hoped forever.
That man who is elected to Office,
and remembers that he is put into
office to transact the business of the
government in a business like manner,
and not to jump at the crack of a
whip in the hand Of a party leader.
is the man who is going to make the
greatest Roadway in political life
hereafter.
liO los JdSb l@N oAN"SA
object lesson in the fallacy of parti-
sanship. 1t was craftsmanship among
many republican leaders which caused
the rupture in their party when the
national election was recently held.
There hasn't been a single evil in
American public life which cannot be
traced to the weakness Of one party
or another in holding party unity
higher thar the abstract question of
justice and right.
~Partisanship, which has destroyed
parties, has the potential power Of de-
stroying governments. If Mr.. Cannon
does not realize it, there is significance
in the fact that men OF his own great
party, more recently putting on the
harness, are of clearer vision and Of
sounder judgment.
1t would be a good thing for North
Dakota and for some of the men who
have been elected to office in North
Dakota if they too could realize this
great fact.

Cherry Sisters Great Act.

For the first time in the history of
Fargo the great Cherry Sisters are
seen here and they are being present
ed by Manager Fowler at the Orpheum.
1t is not too much to say hat they
have an act that has been copied
and possibly never could be. There
are two sisters. and a description of
the act would be useless, for there is
none other like it.. If the two ladies
are simply acting they are above
everything else that ever appeared
here and If they are really doing the
natural" as some say, then again
have they anything beaten in the en-
tire universe. They kept the audi
ence in a roar of laughter and mystif-
cation. Others on the big bill were
the great Yamato troupe of Japs who
have a new act in balancing and wire
walking that is brilliant; Challis &
Challis. a clever man and lady team
who have a neat singing and talking
stunt; Miss Evelyn Dare in her new
and pleasing song; and Gleason & Earl
who have a new turn in singing and
dancing which they do well. There is
the Coscio orchestra and the Orpheum-
scope moving pictures. the whole max
ing up a great bill.

A Fine Comedy,

The Grand Stock Co. for the first
three days of the week opened last
evening with a large audience ap-
pearing in the international comedy
entitled Carolina, which has been seen
for several years under different
names, but in it's tabloid form, with
many Of the long speeches eliminated
was never seen to better advantage.
The scenes are laid in Carolina and
Paris and in the latter ED Borman, the
scenic artist, has done some very nice
work, The production is in charge
of Geo. V. Halliday and the big busi-
ness of the play, all comedy, is in
the capable hands of Pat Carson and
his wife, Miss Madge Carson, who
have the parts Of Old Man Rodgers
and Old Mrs. Rodgers. Little Miss
Gillian also has a good part and makes
much of 1t. The other members of
the company are all we'll cast. The
latter part of the week will see the
production Of Sherlock Holmes Sign
OF the Four in which there will be
much intricate cenery used.
