they must be used in providing
for the wants Of the ones at home.
Moreover, it is a most opportune
time for touching the national
consciousness, for applying the
influences of constructive adver-
Using. The American mind is
impressio nable, as never before.
The American public is now ac-
custoned to business changes.
It expects them. The time is
ideal for standardizing manufac-
tured lines, simplifying retail
stocks, establishing new relations
with the trade and the public.
While the map of the world is be-
ing changed, new names are be-
ing stamped upon the map Of
American business and more

never advertised who have new
eli protected themselves by con
structing the one invulnerable
wall Of national good will and
prestige should heed a hearten-a
ing message and accept an OPP
portunity which may net present,

Issue, to Ballot

BISMARCK, N. D.. June 13.-Bids on
a new school building which the
board Of education had expected to
erect for $4,000 when presented at
the weekly meeting Monday evening
called for an investment of $4,000,
and as a result the board has call
ed an election for June 20 to decide
whether Bismarck shall bond for
enough to construct a new school
building south of the tracks. The
school fund would have cared for an
$4,000 structure, but 1t will not
stretch to accommodate a building
costing $4,000. All building mater
dals have increased SO greatly that
Bismarck contractors declared a
forty per cent advance in cost IN
avoidable.
