Heart Beats
BY A. K.

There are shifty eyes
In the heads
OF men,
And the heads
OF women too
That twist
And turn y
From right to wrong
When talking
To me and you.
They shift
To the floor
To the street
To the sky
Or the ground
Or across the street
They wander around
Without guide
Or rudder
Everywhere except
To meet your eye.
But the little child
Has fearless gaze
An honest appeal
Or fair attack
For his conscience
Is clear
And ne has no. fear
That discovery
Will thwart his plans.
As time goes on
And his heart is warped
And his schemes
Are twisted and willy
His eyes betray
A soul turned gray
From dishonest mould
Treacherous decay.
Two eyes grow shifty
And his evil ways
Are boldly placarded
To the world
No sign is brighter
In electric lights
Than the lights
OF the eyes 5
Which disclose the soul.
The man who refuses
To meet your gaze
In a fearless
Frank
And calmly way
Is a coward
A sneak
And a treacherous Ole
Whose intent is evil
Whose thoughts
Are thieves
Trust not

a great deal Of the friction be-
tween farmers and local ware
housemen and grain buyers will

known to all grain interests that
the position Of the local elevators.
whether conducted as line houses
by farmers cooperative societies
or independent concerns, has not
been satisfactory. and that the
situation has given rise to end
less controversy.
With a view of removing some
of the causes Of friction, Repre-
sentative Theodore Christianson,
Of Dawson, and Senator Olaf
Gjerset, Of Montevideo, intro
duced bill extending the super
vision Of the State Railroad and
Warehouse Commission over local
grain warehouses, and it was
passed by both houses. BY this
measure. every elevator, flour
mill or warehouse, located on
any line Of railway, which re-

warehouse and is required to OBJ

also are required to obtain q
license. Both the elevators and
the buyers are subject to super
vision Of the state commission
and must purchase grain in con-
formity with the official grades.
One important feature of the
new law is a provision that in
event Of a dispute relative to
grade or dockage either party
may forward a sample to the
