nClOYV ~ And the
Raindrops

"T~\ ADDY," asked Evelyn, where do the little snowfakes go when their
IN winters work is done? You told us once that their work was to keep
the ground warm in winter so that the little flowers and other
growing things could come up in the spmngHme" Er#&
THAT is correct" said daddy land when the spingime comes and with it
the time or the little snowfakes to disappear they change into drops Of water
and sink into the ground. From there they rise again to the clouds, to fall to
the earth as rain, TO water the flowers and trees and food plants, without
which NJ person or animal could live.
Did ever tell you about the meeting Of the snowhakes and the raindrops
in the clouds? Well. If l didn't think it would make a good story for you
"The winter as over. Every day the sun was becoming warmer and
warmer, and the little snowhakes, which still lay on the ground, felt that 1t
was time for them to go. So they sank quickly into the ground, and from there
the heat of the sun helped them to rise to the clouds.
I'm the clouds they met again their friends the little raindrops, which they
had not seens since the fall 1t was a happy meeting, for the raindrops and the
snowdakes, which had now become drops Of water again. had much to tell
about where they had been and the things they had done. Some had been in
the brooks and rivers of the land; others had fallen to make part of the ocean.
After they had all told their experiences the drops that had been snow

DOES ADVERTISING PAY?

There is one man in the L. S. SEN
Using pay? could and would probably
give overwhelming testimony in the
affirmative. He is the new senator
from Illinois, ]. Ham Lewis.
For years the papers have poked fun
at this ceaseless worker for the public
that his name became a household
word in Illinois, and, like Mutt and
Jeff, Buster Brown, and others of the
same ill1, he became popular. At
Washington he is running the same
course as in Illinois. A dispatch from
Washington, speaking of his taking
the oath of office, says:
THE triumph of Illinois democracy
-sartorically and Observation-Disclosures
Hamilton Lewis-took the oath of Of
flee Thursday as u. S. senator.
with faultlessly m~anicured finger
tips held lightly aloft, his face framed
in his usual rose colored aura of whis-
kerettes, the new senator swore to do
his duty.
His swearing in costume was a
carefully set jewel of perfection. An
extremely lightly cut creation of dark
gray chung to his graceful frame. A
white silk vest peeped coyly forth,
above rolled cotton lapels. A gray
tinged silk handkerchief leaned care
1essly from a crumpled edge Of his up

THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1913.
THE RIGHT COURSE.

s. There will be general satisfaction
zion taken last evening by the four
}tnembers Of the board Of education
swho were opposed to the retention Of
Mr.. Hoover, in handing in their resig-
nations and walking out. Being en-
tirely out of harmony with the will
OF the majority of the people it was
really the only course left for them.
4 This will mark the end of the fac
-tional fight, which for a time threat
ened to disrupt the Fargo schools. 1t
Ensures that the entire board will be
in harmony back Of superintendent
Hoover, and back Of the board is a.
almost unanimous public sentiment.
In the selection of DR.. +. E. Ball as
a member to replace one of those who
resigned the board has shown splen-
did discrimination. DR.. Ball takes
great interest in the schools, is vitality
interested because he has a number
of children attending school and is
qualified in every way to mako q
splendid record. If the other three
members to be named by the board
measure up to DR.. Ball, Fargo will
have one of the best boards thai ever
had charge of educational affairs in
the city.
Nothing is more disasterous to a
city than a long drawn out school
wrangle and Fargo is to be congratu-
lated on the prompt way in which
this school fight has been obliterat-
cd.

POLICE AND VICE.

A new method of enforcing laws
against vice, and of removing from
police departments the temptation to
graft, has been suggested by A. Leo
We'll, the Pittsburgh lawyer, who has
SO vigorously lea the fight against cor
ruption in his city. Writing in The
Survey, he says:
THE police, a body of men selected
primarily to preserve order, protect
life, prevent crime, apprehend the
criminal, and perform other admins
tratiVe dutieS-men perhaps wholly
untitled as a body for anything else
have been expected to solve, by legis-
lation, problems which have Confound-
ed the WiseSt from the time whereof
the memory of mar runneth not to the
| contrary.
THAT the police have failed could
not be otherwise.
THAT they have aggravated the evil
was to be expected.
THAT ultimately legislation must be
placed in competent, qualified hands,
must be apparent.
That it will require the greatest
minds, the best thought, the highest
craftsmanship, and almost a divine
perception, to apprehend and deal with
those complex, involved intricate ques-
tons having to do with the passions of
men and the strongest. laws of nature,
urging defiance of human laws, seems
to be automatic.
Nevertheless, on the subject of vice
as generally understood in our cities,
the police are expected not only to ad-
minister the laws, but to make them;
not only to enforce enactments, but to
frame them. And herein lies, in my
judgment, the root of the evil in pres
ent-day conditions which has brought
our police into disrepute.
Would it not be wise to ask the
legislature to pass a law requiring ev-
cry city to appoint a body of men to
draft, and from time to time revise, a
code Of laws to regulate, suppress, eX-
terminate, and generally to deal with,
this problem of prostitution? To it
must be given authority. 1t must be
vested with legislative power. 1t
should have its own employees-call it
a morals police force. If you will-to
carry into effect the rules, regulations
and laws passed by this commission
THE casting of this burden upon
the police, more than any other cause
sows the seed of corruption, furnishes
the opportunity for profit, brings into
alliance the law officers and the law
breakers, disgraces the police force
and keeps off of it many men who
would otherwise be glad to serve thei1
communities in a position that should
command the respect and considera-
| tiOn of the DeODle."
