HOW MANY ARE TRULY HAPPY
Eminent New York Physician Places
the Number at About One
in Hundred.

The other night we CHANGED to ask
an eminent physician of New York
city his opinion as to the number Of
people. who were truly happy. His
rather dOgmatic reply was:
About one in hundred"
And this was not the opinion of a
pessimist, but of a most radical op-
timist.
We wonder If this opinion is shared
by others. 1t does not mean, OF
course, that ninety-nine people out Of
hundred are deeply unhappy That
would be absurd. But there is no
doubt that a great many people are
quite unhappy good deal Of the time,
perhaps not half the time, but enough
rather to cloud their lives.
We should like to know the opinion
Of physicians generally. More and
more people go to the doctors to tell
them their troubles. The physician
of today takes the place of the con-
fessional Of yesterday.
Then, too, there is the new applica-
ton of psychology to the field of medi-
cine-the so-called psycho-analysis,
which is so rapidly taking its place as
an important part, literally, of the
medical pharmacopoeia. This new sci
ence has given a wonderful insight
into our sub-conscious selves and re-
veals how far that sub-conscious self
really dominates our lives and deter
mines the amount Of happiness which
we really get out of this confused
welter Of existence.

Fargo has another big knitting
class, just organized with the young
ladies employed in the Herbst de-
partment store as its members. The
yarn for the work to be done by these
knitters will all be furnished by Mrs.

will be sent wherever they seem to
be most needed. Red Cross knitting
instructions will be closely followed,
and some Of the garments will be
turned over to that organization for
distribution. Company B men who
are in need Of knitted articles will
also be among the benehciaries Of
this club.
Mrs. Herbst started this club on
its useful career with a meeting held
at the store Tuesday evening, being
assisted in instructing those just
learning the art, by eight of the
young women who have been doing
Red Cross knitting for some time.
Forty were present Tuesday evening,
and considerable enthusiasm was
manifest. Practically the entire club
will be ready to start work on sweat
ers and wrlstlets by the time of the
next work session.
The club will meet once a week,
probably on Tuesday evenings, at the
store.

In his address before the conven-

the day, State Engineer Bliss showed
that the total salaries to the first
of the year were SIS, 103.46, prac-I
tically so per cent OF the total ex-
pense charged TO the highway fund.
He said that this represents a large
sum. but it would only pay IS men
for one year a salary of $1,000 each,
and that the commissioners, he was
certain. would not criticize this eX-
penditure with the amount Of work
which the state highway commits
sion accomplished. He said the $15,-
10346 salary money is slightly less
than 2.7 per cent OF the $560,000I
which represents the estimated cost
Of all the work for which detail sur
veys have been made. However. the
total salaries are not chargeabIe tol

that they were, he believes that the
