Press and Public Promo To Take a. Fling at the Doctor,-Sometimes. To the Editor of the New Britain
 Herald. Dear Sir:
 I want personally to thank some one on your staff for your kindly edi- torial in your issue of the 9th, on ''The high cost of living" in connec- ton with the proposed revisions of fees by the doctors of New Britain The press and the public are both prone to take a fling out of the doc tor, till his services are in demand Usually, when his work is done, his services are largely forgotten, and his an honorable due.
 We older men often have occasion to remember that Three faces wears the doctors, when
 first sought
 An Angels, and Gods; the cure
 half wrought, But, when the cure complete he asks
 his fee,
 The devil is less terrible than he Alas for ungrateful humanity when they are in trouble the doctor cannot respond too quickly, and when the trouble has passed the doctor is apt to be forgotten.
 For this reason it is a pleasure to the profession at large to receive an occasional word, of cOmmendaton from an appreciative fellow being.
 Sincerely yours,
 R M GRISWOLD.

Spokane to Hold Auto Show

Spokane, Wash, April 25.-
More than 1000 automobiles illu-
minated and decorated and pa
rading the streets of Spokane
will mark the opening of the an
nual Spokane Auto Show, May
10 to 16. Every type of pleasure
motor car manufactured in the
United States will be represented
in the parade, and the same wide
range of different makes will
then be displayed at the Daven-
port Hotel, where the beautifully
decorated lobby, mezzanine floor
and EIizabethan ball room will be
turned into a great display space
to accommodate visitors and
dealers.
The auto show parade this year
will be one of the greatest and
one of the most unique ever held
here. Cars will be illuminated
by their own power, and to give
an Oriental tinge to the affair
Chinese lanterns and Greek red
fire will be used to heighten the
effect.
The arrangements committee
of the show has arran ge d a
number of stunts" for the ben
eft of visitors and local amuse-
ment seekers. One of these will
be the hill climbing contest on
Monroe street hill, and another
will be an economy test to deter
mine what make of car can travel
the fartherest on pint or quart
of gasoline.
The Stadium, just below the
falls, has been secured by the
Auto Show officers and will be
used for general stunts" and
freak" work by expert drivers,
m any of whom have already en-
tered their cars for a variety of
tests. AS the Stadium will seat
10, 600 people it will be the most
popular gathering place other
than the Davenport hotel.
For the benefit of Sunday visi-
tors a sacred concert with an or
chestra of 40 pieces has been ar
ranged and will be heard in the
lobby of the Davenport Hotel
This was a feature of the show
last year and so popular was il
that the entertainment COMMITTEES
decided to repeat it this year.
The 1916 show will close witt
a big high jinks" at the Daven
J port Tuesday, May 16.

Spring.

Spring is looked upon by mauy as the
most delightful season of the year, but
this cannot be said of the rheumatic.
The cold and damp weather brings on
rheumatic pains which are anything but
pleasant They can be relieved, how
ever, by applying Chamberlain's Lini-
ment. Obtainable everywhere.

. SUMMING it all up, it is evi-
dent that Tom Hall has on the
whole, made for the state Of
North Dakota, an effective,
honest and painstaking Off
cial. His record is clean from
any faint or suspicion Of crook
edness or graft; he has saved
the state money in every possi-
BILE way, at the risk Of making
enemies when election day
rolled around, and, if he has
made mistakes, they were ma
tural, human errors, that can
neither reflect upon his char
.acter nor his Judgment. We
have few better men in office

The Antler Commercial club
will, have a Good Roads Day.
On this day every member of
the club will go out and assist
in improving the roads leading
into the city. The idea is a
good one and has been agitated
for some time in the Bottineau
commercial club. Why not
get down to business and de-
signate a Good Roads Day,
specially for improving the
road to Lake Metigoshe? A
great deal couldbe accomplish
ed in a single day if all will
pull together.

THERE are a number of un-
slightly vacant lots in Bottineau
that should receive the atten-
ton of the commercial club,
the city fathers, or someone
else interested in helping to
beautify the city. A beginning
was made on Clean Up Day,
but it was impossible to com

the lack of facilities, as well as
lack of authority to enter pri-
vate property. Why not get
after some of these public eye
sores? If the owners lack the
civic pride to clean up their
it should be done by
the authorities and the costs
taxed up against the property.

G. Sorlie, as most Of the news
papers have it) has ANNOUNCED
himself candidate for lieuten-
ant governor on the republican
ticket, claiming that this was
necessary, because he could
not retain his self respect and
vote for the only candidate 50
far announced-A. T. Kraabel,
The Courant has no quarrel
With Sorlie, but it appears that
he takes himself altogether too
seriously. Mr. Kraabel is a
man of ability, integrity and
respectahility. No voter need
apologize for having cast his
ballot for Mr. Kraabel., He
has served the state before as
lieutenant governor with credit
to himself and the state. He
has a number of times been
elected to the state legislature
from his district. He is looked
up to as a man Of irreproach-
able character in his home COM
munity.
Kraabel's objectionable sin,
according to Sorlie, consists in
having accepted the indorse-
ment Of the Nonpartisan Lea
que. Whether or not this will
be regarded as high treason
will be determined by the re-
publican voters in the primary
election.
AS to Sorlie, his political
trail is rather devious and un-
followable. A few years ago
he was a progressive republi.
can. In 1912 he strayed off the
reservation and took up Bull
Moosing. His denunciations
of the republican party and
what it stood for were exceed
ingly emphatic. BY his ow n adj
mission he joined the Non
partisan league during the last
year. He now denounces this
organization and announces
himself a candidate for lieuten-
ant governor on the republican
ticket, his first love, in order
that he may retain his self
respect"
OF course, if Sorlie has got
such a hair-trigger conscience
that he cannot vote for Kraabel
and must vote the republican
ticket, despite his multitudin-
GUS past affiliations, he has a
perfect right to get in and wet
his feet.
But the average voter about
the state may not be quite as
sensitive.
