AUTO Law ENFORCEMENT
IN FARGO QUITE MARKED
Better Condition Here Says Vivian,
Secretary OF States Ennissary,
Probing Local Conditions.

Irwin Vivian. formerly city editor of
The Bismarck Tribune, and recently
appointed one of the vehicle officers
by Secretary Hall declared this morn
ing after canvassing the business dis
trict of the city that the merchants OF
Fargo want to see the automobile IL
cense law rigidly enforced and will
lend their support to this effect.
The enforcement OF the law In
Fargo is most evident" said Vivian
this afternoon. II was surprised 10
see the number Of machines that are
operating with their tags which speaks
well for the members of the sheriff and
the police departments"
Vivian called attention to the fact
that last year only about SIS per cent
of the machines in the state were IL
censed, the state thereby being de-
prived OF a large revenue. To date, he
believes that about half of the ma
chimes are carrying tags.
He further stated that automobile
dealers must have tags for each line
Of machines which they handle or rep
resent and duplicate tags for as many
demonstrators as they have in stock.
The duplicates may be secured from
the Office of the secretary of the state
for a fee of so cents. When a dealer
disposes Of car, he shall furnish to
the purchaser one Of the duplicates
until the owner Of the car receives his
license.

LAD. HAVE you PUT THE KHAKI ON.

Lad, have you put the khaki on?
Work-there's work to do.
Down on the rim of Mexico,
Round by the sea way too.
A brave work for the good of the
world,
Work that has to be done.
We didn't seek it, we didn't shirk it,
And now we're in 1t. we won't Turk it.
But fight clean, Il
And fight strong,
For the right of all to the sun.
Lad, have you put the khaki on?
War is hell and wreck.
Ben ten hells is peace with the heel
OF War upon your neck.
And ten heavens would be a world
OF nations knit to one.
So will you seek 1t, and not shirk It?
Help, for the futures veal, to work iti

Freedoms lad,
Will you put the khaki on?

BIG FEATURE AT
BANKERS MEETING
Hon. B. F. Spalding Arouses
Enthusiasm Among
Mayville People

MayvilIe. N. D.. May 22-Enthusiasm
was everywhere in evidence here this
morning following the addresses made
by Judge Spalding OF Fargo on the fea-
lures Of the liberty loan, prior to the
calling to order of the annual spring
meeting of the third district group
meeting of the North Dakota State
Bankers association.
The labor situation in the state was
the topic of the address which Profess
sor MAYNARD of the state agricultural
college gave to the bankers which was
followed by a general discussion by
the bankers. Discussion on the liberty
loan were led by Hon. B. F. Spalding.
Worth G.. Couey of Grand Forks. spec
ial agent for the department OF agricul-
ture in the eradication of the barberry
bush, also told the bankers of the
amount Of damage which the weed had
done in the state and asked their as
sistance in fighting it.
Secretary Macfadden Of the state
bankers association, read letter
which he had received from the federal
department of agriculture urging the
bankers to lend their support and funds
in bringing about a greater flax acre
age in the state in order to insure an
adequate supply of linseed oil for the
many manufacturing industries in this
country and for the use of the govern
ment in its increased activities in naval
construction and the equipment OF
large armies.

Government May Take OUer
Food Supplies If Necessary.
To Keep Prices Reasonable
(By Associated Press.l


Washington, May 22.-Although food
experts oppose government fixing OF
maximum prices on staple food prod
ucts except to force big holders to re-
lease their supplies, protection of the
consumer will be one of the considera-
tions of the food control administra-
ton.
If there is a shortage in any food
staple and it becomes essential to low
er the price, the government, it was
said today, will not hesitate to take
over supplies and distribute them. In
this way officials believe more can be
accomplished than by setting maxi
mum prices beyond which sellers may
not charge. If there is an abundance
OF food however, they don't believe it
ever will become necessary to exercise
power of commander.
A short crop of any commodity food
experts say, will send prices up
through competitive bidding, despite
ordinary regulatory measures and the
only remedy they hold, in this case, is
for the government to take over the

that went the rounds a few years ago

grandmother. Even with several
crescendo repetitions the old lady
could not hear, and finally she settled
back with a laugh and said: TITS fun

The point is, we go around calling
each other, to our faces, the most ridic-
ulouS names, and instead of being af-
fronted we smirk and are proud. For
we are tremendously proud of our
names, good old names you know, like
the Rockmores of Germantown or the
Hagedorns of Maryland. When the
truth is, our names are screamingly
funny, II you only stop to think about
them.
We are named after occupations,
Harper, Baker, Porter or Smith; we are
geographically named. after places
such as Hill, Wood, Lea, Field: we are
Churches and Houses and Kitchens; we
we are Beers and Beveridges; we are
coins, cereals flowers, fruits, virtues,

ly insulted and are called some nick

such as Whitehead, Peabody, Crook

product, paying the grower a good
price and distributing food where it is
most needed.
European demands for food this year
will take all of their surplus. The
allies it is stated on good authority
need 1,000,000,000 bushels of grain to
carry them through the year.
With normal crops this country can
furnish 100000, 900 bushels of this and
Canada 200,000,000. This will fill only
so per cent of the allies needs but
officials believe America by economic
ing can increase this to 80 per cent
provided crops are normal. The new
food administration, as soon as
organized, will start a campaign for
saving in the household and hopes to
cut down ordinary consumption to a
considerable extent. The government

DODGE SUBMARINES
American lnvents Underwater Mer.
chant Vessel of Great Speed.

Philadelphia, May 22.-The Phila-
delphia Press will publish a story to-
day to the effect that America has
found a perfect answer to the Ger
man submarine terror" 1t Is said
to be a merchant submarine standard
lied at about 1900 tons or 5000 tons
dead weight, of such speed that 1t can
even when submerged, easily elude any
surface pursuer and is non -sinkable.
The craft, the invention OF Simon
Lake, according to The Press, is capa-
BILE of submerging within half min
ute and has been so standardized and
simplified that the first one may be
turned out in four months and others
after that at the rate Of three or four
a week. 1t will burn heavy oil.
The vessels are to be built and ope-
rated, the story says, by a company
under government supervision.

life Of man. He had been a boyhood
friend of the girls father back in
Timoleague, County Cork. He treat
ed her only as loving grandfather
might.
She says she thought not of love
then; but two years ago Manning,
according to her story, began show
ering attentions and gifts upon her.
Finally, she says, he asked her with
much eloquence to be his wife. and
she consented.
The wedding day was set for last
December 10. The marriage license
was procured. The priest was select
ed to perform the ceremony. Dozens
of wedding invitations were sent out.
Then, on the very day set for the
wedding, according to Miss O'Brien's
story, the old man called her up over
the phones said gruffly. Its all off,
and hasn't spoken word to her
since.
Miss O'Brien thinks the old gen.
tleman's six children persuaded him
to end the romance. But anyway,
she is in the courts to remove
smirch from the family name.

Dressing Wounds With Sugar.

DIR. G. Magnus reports 10 the Thera.
peutische Monatshefte Of Berlin on his
success in treating wounds with ordl-
nary sugar. This he sprinkles in a
thick layer over wound that has
previously been washed and dried. Iio
covers it with dry dressing, which
he renews every day.
The Journal OF the American Medical
Association says great advantage OF
this dressing is that it does not stick
to the wound, but stimulates power
full secretion. which fushes out the
depths Of the wound, while profuse
suppuration softens crusts and necrotic
tissue and gives chance for healthy
granulation below. When this stage is
reached salyes or transportation take
the place of the sugar.
