Secretary Moore Would

A permanent silo exhibit on the

manufacturers and although no de-
finite arrangements have been made
as yet, It Is confidently expected that
there will be a good sized permanent

REGULATING PUBLIC DANCES
Kansas City Visitor in tho City Out
lines Interesting Method Of Rcgu.
lating Dances There.

Kansas City has an interesting and
effective manner Of handling the pub
lie dance hall problem, according to
g. w. Cash of that city who is in
Grand Forks drilling the team of the
local Yeomen lodge. The supervision
of the dances in Kansas City is car
ried on by a committee known as the
public welfare committee, of which
the chief of police. police matron and
mayor are members. Several other
members of the committee are ap-
pointed. Owing to the great number
OF public dances held in Kansas City
the committee is a large one.
The method used In supervising the
dances is simple but effective. When
n society or individual intends to
conduct a dance a requirement of the
ordinance provides for the payment Of
a 5O-cent fee for which q license Is
given. These license are issued in
triplicate. one remaining in the office
of the chief Of police. the original go
ing to the dance proprietor and a
third being given to. an inspector.
Some seven inspectors are employed
and these people visit the dances. take
up the licenses and see that the dances
are being properly conducted. II an
Inspector finds that a dance is being
conducted without a license he has the
authority to close the dance at once.
If he finds young people dancing who
are apparently under age, he has the
power to require the suspected person
to answer his questions and the next
day an investigation of the case ia
made.
This method has worked very salts
factorily in Kansas City. Another pro-
vision of the ordinance is that there
must be daylight between the
dancers thus specifically prohibiting a
number of the Objectionable forms OF
dancing.

These aggressive pioneers made out
with wheat in North Dakota. They
could hardly do otherwise. When a
poor young man has a wife and baby
in a settlers shack or on a rented
place he cannot experiment or wait on
a slow crop. He must have quick re.
turns. And when the gold Of North
Dakota's virgin soil lay at his feet he
would have been foolish not to pick
it up.
With wheat these old pioneers have
started a wonderful state. And now
another pioneer movement is on.
Many Of these same men reinforced
with fresh recruits are blazing a new
trail of an agriculture for permanence.
They are adding to wheat, cattle and
clover and alfalfa and corn. The old
pioneers were more spectacular in
method and result. but the new pion.
GERS are working towards surer ends.
Where once they spread wide they are
now digging deep, and North Dakota
will surely prosper thereby.
