SEEk|NGMORALCODE
Educators 10 Be Asked to Ex-
press Opinions.
Large Gift by Business Man It Is
Hoped, viii Be Basis for Good
Work on a Subject That
Concerns All.

A gift of 100000 by prominent
business man, as prize for the best
code of morals for children and youth,
to be used in schools as a basis for
character education Of children, will
start a unique contest throughout the
United States The problem is to de-
eide what moral ideas intelligent pub
lie opinion believes should be incul-
Gated in school.
The man who gives the prize has
asked the executive committee of the
National Institution for Moral lnstruc-
ton, in Washington, to control the
contest.
A national group of seventy code
one from each state, and these are to
be assisted in interpreting intelligent
public opinion by letters of advice
from people in all walks of life who
are interested in the character edu-
cation of the children of the nation
These 20 code writers are to be Sc
lected by board of cooperating edu-
Gators" one in each state.
Invitations have been issued to all
state superintendent of education to
act as cooperating educators, and ac-
ceptancies have already been received
from Commissioner Kendall of New
Jersey; State Superintendent Stearnes
Of Virginia; Wagner of Delaware;
Gass of Missouri; Morrison of New
Hampshire; Swearingen of South
Carolina; Shawkey of West Virginia;
Lugg Of South Dakota; Davee of
Montana; Taylor of North Dakota,
and Wilson of Oklahoma.
The following college presidents

university, and Mrs. Seager; McVey,
University of North Dakota.
Milton Fairchild, chairman of the
executive committee, explains that no
dlsrespect for the Bible is implied in
this morality code competition, be-
cause the work of the code writer's
will be to formulate the morality
which is in the Bible and being taught
In the churches, into such shape as
will be of highest utility in school
character education.
The institution is asking that the
general public contribute to the sue.

Rocky Roads Of China.

We all know the description of the
snakes in Ireland: "There are none."
and much the same might be said
about the roads in China. There are
so-called roads, certainly, upon which
the people move about, but | have
seldom met one that was any better
than the surrounding country, and
very, very often on this journey
met roads where It was ease and lux
ury to move off them on to the neigh
boring plowed field The recipe for
a road there in the North seems to
be: "kTae a piece of the country that
is really too bad to pillow or to use for
any agricultural purposes whatever,
that a mountain torrent, in fact,
has given up as too much for the
water, upset a stone wall over It, a
stone wall with good large stones in it,
take care they never for moment lie
evenly, and you have your road.-Wide

TAKE PLEASURE IN HAGGLING
Tibetans Will Not Be Denied the Joys
That Accrue From the Sense
of Bargaining.

"Mornin' time, bargain time!" calls
out one of the peddlers by the way
side in Tibet cheerfully as he sees
you returning from a glimpse Of the
SHOWS at sunrise. You bid him come
to you, and from one of the innumer-
able pockets concealed in his volu-
minous robe he will produce perfect
little jade cup, or a Tibetan coffee
pot, or gold copper and precious
stones, or perhaps a huge lump Of
rough turquoise hewn to look like a
couch with a tiny gold Buddha reclin-
ing on it.
Then comes the bargaining, in which
he and all his friends take part against
your single SELF
1t can all be done by signs and
smiles and patience and in the long
run you will get some things well
worth having at very reasonable
price.
But you must have no false pride
about bargaining. 1t is an elementary
part of these peoples nature, and the
joy of selling will leave them forever
when the day of haggling is done.

Scottish LODGING Houses.

Glasgow has seven municipal lodg-
ing houses, six for men and one for
women. They are stone buildings,
three to five stories in height, and of
the most substantial character. Each
ledger has a separate room, with bed
and chair. The bed has wire spring
hair or fiber mattress, coarse sheets,
blanket, a coverlet, pillow and a
pillowcase. These are aired, cleaned
and washed after the ledger has gone
in the morning. The total number of
bedrooms in the seven houses is 2,235.

With BARNS
FULL OF STOCK
Didn't Look Much Like Hard
Times in Western Canada.

A. Meyer, who left one of the best
Counties in Minnesota, probably be-
cause he got good price for his ex-
cellent farm, and left for the Canadian
West, writes to his local paper, the
Bagley Independent. His story is well
worth repeating. He says:
ITO say l was greatly surprised
when l reached Saskatchewan and Al
berta would be expressing 1t mildly.
In a country where so much suffering
was reported, found everyone in
good circumstances, and especially
all our friends who have left Clearwa-
ter and Polk counties. They all have
good homes and those who were re-
ported to have sold their stock through
lack Of feed, found with their barns
full Of stock, and it did not look very
much like hard times. They have
from 100 acres to two sections of the
finest land that can be found.
Those that left here two or three
years ago have from 100 to 400 acres
In crops this year.
Prospects for a bumper crop are
splendid. 1t is little cold now, but
nothing is frosted, either in gardens
Or fields. Land can be bought quite
reasonably here from those who vol
unteered their services in the Euro
pean war. Here are certainly the
best opportunities for securing a good
home with a farm and independence
for life in a short time. Before |
started / heard that prices we're SO
high. Flour was reported at $12 per
hundred it is $4.25 here. In the west
oil the groceries can be purchased
for nearly the same as in MINI. The
only article that 1 found higher
was kerosene at IS cts per gallon.
When l saw the land wondered why
people do not live where they pro-
duce enough from the soil to make
comfortable living. We visited T. T.
Safer. John Dahls, w. J. and R. D.
Hollis. Martin Halmen, Ole Halvorson,
VIM. Walker and Geo. Colby, all
from Bagley. We found well and pros
porous farmers who wished to be re-
membered to all their Bagley friends"

OUR FINANCIAL SUPREMACY.

Is the dollar to be the standard mon
ctary medium in international finance?
1t looks So Last week the dollar was
the only form Of money that was not
selling at a discount The sensational
drop in sterling exchange, from its nor
NAL rating of 4tS7 to Sigh, was nat
ural outcome of our foreign trade opera
tions OF the past year. Our unpreced-
entcd trade balance of 81, 30, 600 600 on
August II, the difference between cur
tailed imports and vastly expanded eX-
ports, tells the story. Europe-and no
tably Great Britain-has been buying
enormous stores of foodstulfs and man
ufactures and other products without
! even its normal exports to offset these
enlarged imports. The absence of the
| American tourists has shut off another
source OF European finances - about
! 5000. 600 600 in normal year. The wide
| discrepancy between Europe's pur
chascs and Europe S sales, therefore, i:
responsible for the situation Which ex
listed last week when the American de
mand for british payment was so grea
that a discount of four and a half pc
cent was necessary to make settlement
The natural way out Of this difficult,
seems to he huge British loan. Thi
would establish foreign credit and pro
vide means for the enormous Tadin
which Europe viii do in America dun
ing the next few months Moreover, !
would establish the United States as
lending nation-as a great internationa
market for money as we'll as for goods

TAKE SALTS To
flush KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat if you Feel Backachy
or Bladder Troubles You-Salts
is Fine for Kidneys.

Meat forms uric acid which eXcites
and overworks the kidneys in their Ell.
forts to filter it from the system. Reg
ular eaters of meat must flush the
kidneys occasionally. You must relieve
them like YOU relieve your bowels. re-
moving all the acids, waste and poison,
else you feel q dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours, tongue is coated and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full Of
sediment; the channels often get irri-
tated, obliging you to get up two OF
three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jads Salts from
any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast for
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine and bladder disorders disap-
pear. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes end lemon juice
| combined with Ethia, and has been used
| for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys and stop bladder irri-
tation. Jad Salts is inexpensive; harm
| less and makes delightful effervescent
| lithia-water drink which millions OF
men and women take now and then
/ thus avoiding serious kidney and blad
! der diseases.
