Italy. At the outset of the
war Italy was linked with the
triple alliance which called for
her to fight on the side of Ger

financially and industrially
dominated by the Germans,
Nevertheless the Italians
stood neutral at the outset OF
the war and nine months later
drew their sword for the cause
of humanity. Only for the ac-
tion of Italy, which held the
Austrian army busy, it seems
inevitable that France would
have been overrun.

the censorship applied only to
news of a character that should
obviously be withheld in war
time. Troop movements and
ship movements were about the
only subjects under the ban and
even with reference to these
matters the censorship meant
little for the reason the war

Owing to carping at times by

the United States's censorship

Federal experts assure John B.

North Dakota, that the returns from

complete than those vet reported
from any other state in the union, and
that the report on crop acreage and
conditions to be derived from these

satisfactory.
Mr.. Brown advises that every coun-
ty except Burleigh has returned all
Of it's questionaires. The crop sur
vey shows a ten percent increase in
wheat acreage over 1917, which, with
a 1915 yield, would mean $4,000, 200
more bushels of wheat. This report

WITH THE EDITORS
/ WANTS TO BE DIs-EDUCATED

A prominent physician in a nearby county
sends rather interesting letter to the Daily
News, in which among other things, he says:
l want to congratulate you on your edi-
torial showing up the German nations as lead
ers in letters, art, music and other things.
want to be "dis-educated" some more. am
one Of those Americans who had believed
the Germans were decidedly superior race
in everything intellectual. suppose there
are others like myself. Tread that editorial to
number of friends at my home, and while
we all knew as soon as the facts were stated,
that every word of it was true, not one had
ever thought to look the things up. More
information of the same sort will help Ameri-
cans get the right perspective on the German
race, for these things will come up after the
war is over. Tell US some more about the
German intellectual fraud, or tell US where
the information may be had.
Any encyclopedia will supply all the informa-
ton on the subject the inquirer needs. Much of it
is matter of common knowledge. The only trouble,
the doctor points out inferentially, is that no
one has thought of it. In the doctors own field
Of science, while Germany claims to have the
greatest medical schools in the world, she has
made none of the great discoveries which are the
foundation Of modern materia medica and surg
cry. Harvey, an Englishman, discovered the cir
culation of the blood. Jenner, another English
man, discovered vaccination Lister, still another
discovered and to some extent de-
veoped antiseptic surgery. Norton q Boston den
fist, was the first person to use ether in an opera
ton. Pastuer, as we pointed out in the former
discussion of the subject, was the first to dis
cover the relation between micro organisms and
disease, and so laid the foundation for all modern
treatment of human ills.-Minot News.

MOTHERS DAY

MAY IL is Mothers DAY.
It is day this year possessed Of unusual sig
nifcance.
Again the mothers of the nation have been
called upon to pledge their sons and their daugh-
tiers to the cause Of democracy. Again they have
responded with unselfsh devotion, and, brushing
aside their tears, have plunged into the work they
can best do here at home to promote the success
OF our arms overseas
Rack Of every boy over there in the trenches
is q mother or the memory Of a mother over here.
This is the influence which keeps him brave and
clean. The thought Of her and her sacrifice makes
his trials seem small The knowledge that he is
defending her from that which has been visited
on the mothers Of France and Belgium makes him
strong Her tender spirit is his guide, and her
boy is not going wrong, no matter what tears or
temptations may assail him. H
We have just had the pleasure OF reading
letter which an Indian boy, soon to leave camp Tor
service overseas, wrote his mother: n.
Don't worry or cry for me. ! kiss you, my
mother. i i am well and well-cared for, and am
coming back to you, my mother"
write Mother First is the motto which ap-
pears above every writing desk in our Y.M G. A.
huts cover there" The unfortunate Sammy who
0&&u 3 TeAl living LlOLIAeA 0uVPto q
layishes on her that affection which must be q
part Of the well-ordered boys existence.
Az Governor Frazier says in his Mothers day
proclamation: a
The observance of Mothers day has spe-
cial Significance this year, and mother love has
taken OH an added meaning to the thousands OF
young men who have left the parental home, many
Of them for the first time, and are taking their
places in our armies and navies. To them has
been given the greatest commission Of modern
times. They have set out to check the encroach-
n,ents of military autocracy and undemocratlc
ideals, and when their task is completed, the
world will be better and safer place in which to
live"
Yes, we cannot too strongly emphasize our obi
cation to Mother on this one day of the whole
365 dedicated especially to her. AS a nation
honors or fails to honor its mothers so will it
be great or small America is q nation in whose
vocabulary Mother means all that is holy and
good and beautiful, and in the war mother Of to-
day-the mother whom, most of all, we will honor
next Sunday these qualities are multiplied.

"We here at home hardly realize the asset we
have in our nicely paved streets" said George A.
WEIGH, veteran Capital City merchant, when the
subject turned to municipal improvement. Mr..
WEIGH then proceeded to tell Of prodigal son
of Bismarck who had gone away to the cities.
He came back this spring to look after some prop
erty interests. The new Bismarck opened his
eyes, and when he reluctantly took train back to
the cities it was with the intention Of closing up
his affairs there and coming back to Bismarck
to make his home "You have real town here
now" said this old-time Bismarck man. "1t's
good enough for anyone, and I'm coming back. ;"
One Of the things which DR.. Thomas Moran Of
Purdue university particularly noted during his
recent visit to the Capital City was the mile upon
mile of handsome pavement. II have been in
no city Of this size which has so much new pave
ment, nor where the system Of street improve
ment has been so uniform and so well worked
out !" said DR.. Moran, as his car sped over block
after block of asphalt Other visitors are being
impressed in the same way. Some Of these visi-
tors are country folk, soon to retire, anxious to
find city which will offer themselves and their
families social and educational advantages and
civilized comforts, and the fact that Bismarck
offers all these opportunities will be factor in
making up their minds.
