stolen or the window panes broken,
then surmise that it is ghost holiday
That year my kind friend, Mrs Y, made
me wiser, she asked me to a Zionistic
Halloween dance at her home. Ghosts
in Jerusalem! Is this the outcome of
the prophets of prophecies?
Il was away from town for some years
and saw no more of my friend Then
business brought me back. I was both
anxious and curious to see her again.
Zionism was now on it's pinnacle of pros
perity and charlatanism, full of secrets,
vows and pledges and all kinds of hokus-
pokus.
Zone heard only that the membership
was swelling, rich ladies and gentlemen
were constantly joining, the treasury
was fat and mysterious and private-the
movement was now spelled in shekels-
but the idea, the ideal was forgotten.
In justice and truth let me add that I
still knew of some real dreaming Jewish
Zionists; one, young man in little
town who worked a day or two in the
week to keep soul and body together,
and gave the rest of his time to organic
ing, preaching and proclaiming his below
ed Zionism But there were a few humble
obscure souls who held no position in
the movement, knew none of it's mystic
treasury secrets and were the laugh of
the organization.
"The organization now prospered, mar
rano Zionists from hidden corners Jews,
who in the early days when Zionism was
Eel
Herzels, poor and scorned, died in OBJ
scure glory, Knocked the movement and
called the men 'dreamers, as if the name
implied something scurrile and unbe-
coming, now hearing of it's handbook and
other signs of success began to creep
sheepishly out of their hidden places,
and scurry and scamper into the safe
fold
$50 much for them, but it was my
friends religious confusion that really
concerned me.
con beautiful July morning I found
myself near her palatal home. Every
thing seemed so quiet and ordered and
aristocratic and dead. The proud limou-
sine with it's naughty chauffeur looking
so magnifcently bored stood waiting
near the house The lawn looked as vel
vety smooth as a Persian rug. I could
see the gardener cutting and shipping
and trimming the bushes and vines, and
my heart rejoiced for 1 thought, All must
be we'll with my friend
Gas 1 stood wondering and admiring,
the doors opened and my friend-but oh,
how changed don't tell me that people
are born with their physognomy, this
woman had changed hers, contour, fea-
lures, expression, all-my friend, in
brick colored hood and cape was led
down the steps by her husband and
mother, into the auto, and as I rightly
guessed, away to the sanitarium.
Gas I crept away from the house the
gardener was still bending over the
flower beds and through the windows

"CRUSHING" GERMANY.

The devils pretty sick one these days bat
when he was hale and hearty less than year ago
he certainly did have something up his sleeve for
your Uncle Samuel and the other allies. That was
the time when he was enforcing peace terms on
Rumania that made that little nation groan to
high heaven. Finally Rumania sent delegates to
Berlin to plead for little more humane terms.
Said Berlin to Rumania: J.
You think these terms are harsh? Wait When
we dictate terms to the western powers, which
we will have conquered presently, then you viii
know what harsh terms are!" ..-ts, f.-
We think that this Berlinism to poor, little over
whelmed Rumania should be printed in box car
letters from this day onward. SO that all the world
may read it easily when the pacifsts and pro-
Germans begin to fill the earth with their weep
ngs and wailings and beseechings that we do not
crush Germany"

Some PAPERS of the state are trying to deceive

state at heart without regard Of political conse-

that this is not political office 1t Is true tha'
she was endorsed by the democrats at Fargo early
last spring but she was not consulted much less
did she ask this endorsement, i is also true that
she was endorsed by the Lincoln republicans at
Minot little later. But at the time Miss Nelson
was out of this state in the interest OF the Liberty
Loan unconscious that this new political organlza-
ton had been born in this state. She did not be-
come a candidate until later and upon the urgent
solicitation Of educators all over the state. She
is conducting her own campaign. She is support

direction? You will be surprised to discover how

Sec. ii. No bill shall embrace more
than one subject which must he ex-
pressed in its title.
Sec. IS. No bill shall be altered and
amended on its passage so as to
change its original purpose.
The fake bill contravenes each pro-
vision. Its title is: A RiAito Regu
late the Receipt and Possession of III
toxicating Liquors. The fake amend
ment makes it bill to prohibit the
receipt or possession of liquor for any
purpose whatsoever. -, - T
. As have shown. the L. $. bone dry
statute of March 3, 1917, is a rider
tackled onto the last section Of the
postal appropriation act, and its pur-
pose was to put the Federal law in
harmony with the state law. 1t does
not forbid any importation for medi-
cinal purposes, nor any importation
that is permitted by the laws of the
state. and. indeed, while Congress has
constitutional power to regulate in
-tereState commerce, 1t has no legal
power to destroy such commerce
Now. where are We at: Now it ap-
pears our dry bone statute is pure
fake: shall we have any more prOsecu-
lions under it? viii our attornew
general confess that we haveebeen fear
fully mistaken and that there is no
bone; dry statute: will he try to undo
the past wrongs Of the takers and to
open the way for every person TO get
his good anti-f1u medicine? T.. g.
And now word in regard to the
dose Of liquor and quinine. When Il
person is taken with the flu, he is as
a person bitten by rattlesnake. He
can drink liquor like water until he
had had enough, because one poison
kills the other. Drink till you feel
happy. Go to bed and sweat. Take a
Quinine pill with every two or three
swallows Of the good medicine. Eat
plenty of good steak or roast beef. and
then like a christian scientist. you may
order the flu to 60 to the hot place.

LEARN TO LIVE OUT DOORS.

Most of US are already planning what we shall
do when the boys come home!'
They have been away so long, on such dam
gerous, heroic mission that when they come back
we will love them more and treat them better
than ever before. We will appreciate then,-and
take more time from our foolish hurryings for
love, and comradeship, We will spend more time
enjoying the human companionship of the boys
and each other.
Blu! # we spent more time with them We'll have
to spend it out of doors-for THEY won't stay, in
the house to play!
The men in the army and navy, drawn from the
cooped-up places of modern social and industrial
life, have suddenly been taught the uses and de-
lights of plain, everyday fresh air. They like it so
well that they won't be content with any other
kind. They have learned what it is to sleep under
the stars-a JOY once reserved to tramps and
poets. They have watched the exhuberant glory
and triumph of rosy sunrise, and learned the sol
emn beauty of creeping twilghts
"In Flanders Field where poppies grow" they
have learned new and mighty language of the
common grass and flowers, and thrill to the song
of the lark that braves the battlefelds as they
never thrilled to solemn organ tones.
A day in June or October is more to them than q
square on the calendar. 1t is a God-gi time of
sun and air. and work and play, and friendship and
service-a glorious period of fun use of mind and
soul and body-for splendor of living un2uessed
it, "a edu1ea IN life Of indoors -.

GERMANY NEEDS A BETTER LIAR.

The camouflage of the latest German reply was
very amateurish. For instance, Solf started in by
denying the reports of U-boat murders and other
was unable to guarantee that new orders prohibit
ing such outrages would reach all submarine COM
manders in time. q.
The German peoples urgent need is not
change of autocrats or constitution but first
class liar at the head of their diplomacy. It takes
a first class liar to make good showing as hypo-
critic.

Dear Sir: - r.. = sRE
. 1t seems to me that someone should
make some denial of the statements
made that booze is a cure for the flu.
Does anyone know OF a single death
from the flu where whiskey or other
liquor was NOT given? Why does the
Ralston Health Club of Ralston Uni
versity, Washington. D. c., which Is
composed of over a. thousand of the
best scientific men in America and
Europe say that liquor in any form Is
the most dangerous thing to give and
many times fatal in such cases as
pneumonia is usually followed from
its use. Let's note who are the
worse In the disease, those who drink
or those who do not, other things con-
sidered. Nsls-E..'- !
If liquor is good lets haven't again;
we can't get it too soon. But lets be
sure we are not going to fooled
badly before ye do. -

Here is an editorial from The Leader discuss
ing the Second Liberty Loan:
sit is stated that, before congress frames an
adequate tax bill, that the people are going to be
asked to subscribe to another Liberty Loan, equal
or greater than the first installment.
This should not be done. Such plan should
be opposed by every ounce of energy the people
with clean hands before it asks the poor and the
people in moderate circumstances to loan another
cent"
Here is an excerpt from another editorial:
The crushing of Germany or another nation is
not legitimate object of war"
Here is yet another editorial comment:
with official Washington the people of this
country deplore the fact that the German people
have been unable to express themselves, and they
do not intend to let official Washington FORCE
