The large number OF men. women,

are receiving wages they never dreamt
Of before the war, are not always un-
mindful OF the wants OF others. In
fact, many Of the worlds sad dere-
licts" are benefting substantially by
the good times OF their more fortunate
brethren. Instances OF It are very no
ticenhe In the Black country. On pay
day, IN the particular region, may be
seen wandering 10 convenient pitch"

nave musical instruments which they
perform upon. Others sing. some are
blind. and others ure minus a limb.
they all have caps or other receptacles
for coppers. When the works gates
are open, and the workers come forth
with pockets full OF money. there is
q variation in the music which can
be described as weird. But is is a
great time for the musicians. There
Is continual "clinl,, clink," into tho
caps OF the poor folk until the last
worker has passed their line.

Honorable Carl NORMAN,
Assistant Secretary OF Agriculture.
Dear Mr.. Voorman:-Will you please
convey to farmers of America our pro-
found appreciation of their patriotic
services to the country and to the al
lied armies in the field. They have
furnished their full quota Of fighting
men; they have bought largely Of Lib
erty Bonds; and they have increased
their production of food crops both
last year and this by over a thousand
million bushels above normal produc-
thion. Food is a vital military neces-
sity for us and for our allies, and from
the day of our entry into the wal
Americas armies Of food producers
have rendered invaluable service to
the allied cause by supporting the SOL
diers at the front through their de-
voted and splendidly successful work
in the fields and burrows at home.
Very sincerely,
John J. Pershing.

that the editor of that publication is
obessed with the opinion that the doc
tors, and especially those connected
with the Board of Health r respon-
sible for needless sacrifice of human
lives. From the article ,one in q posi-
ton to now, would conclude that the
writer was suffering from some type
of hysteria peculiar to himself or else
he is laboring under a delusion in
which all things appear to him in a
distorted form.
For his benefit I want to say that
this present epidemic is worldwide in
its scope-that North Dakota is no ex-
ception to any other country on earth
and as a consequence is bound to suf-
fer the toll in lives in proportion to
all other states and all other coun-
tries.
When the ravages of disease were
first felt in the state it struck like a
thunderbolt out of a clear sky. The
populace of the state was unprepared
for such a calamity. It dealt death to
many homes in far greater proper
ton than did bullets to men on the
firing line. All medical aid, such as
nurses. doctors, medical equipment,
etc., were marshalled to the fore front
in combating the disease. Many OF
these forces, both doctors and nurses,
fell victims to the disease and died in
the interest Of humanity. AND YET,
the editor of the Record would dare
to intimate that those men in the pro-
fession whose every aim was to save
lives and who have labored most in
defatigably, day and night, t orelieve
the suffering, were unmindful of their
duties towards the general public. II
he were only half disposed to be fair
he would be forced to admit that the
doctors have done nobly in their re-
Spouse to meet this emergency.
In addition to the precautionary
measures adopted by boards Of health
he infers that some strict quarantine
measure should be imposed. II that
were attempted in North Dakota the
our worthy critic would be the first to
quote figures from other states where
such procedure is not in vogue and
would censor us without mercy roE
our display of radicalism.
Anyone with a grain Of common
sense can readily see the folly Of str1c!
quarantine in an epidemic Of this kind
where nearly every home, business
place and industry be tied up and
iaave the victims to their fates. Whine
such radical measures were not
thought Of not deemed advisable, yet
every other precaution was used in
the way Of restrictions and education 2
to the end that the unavoidable toll
in life might be reduced to the small
est possible number.
The editor has been most free with
his criticism but has offered no rem
edy. If he has any of merit to offe'
we will be glad to consider It.

Secretary State Board Of Health.
