MOTHER, BE YOUR BOYS SWEETHEART
AND HE'LL SURE GO RIGHT!

How to keep the Boy from going wrong!
lot of good people are searching for hard
and-fast rule to solve this question, and while
they are hating many a Maynard lad, they are
far from finding a method to save every boy.
Otter have good people voiced fear that there
is no such all-saving rule. But there is! All the
boy needs is the right sort of a mother. The kind
of mother Ben Mclean had.
Ben was courageous soldier, and 100 per
cent son. Just few days before the world war
ended Ben died in French hospital.
81 asked him." wrote the nurse, IF he didn't
want ME to write a word to his sweetheart. And
he said, write to mother.
"And smile came to his pain-tortured face as
he whispered: My mother is MY sweetheart
That was his last word.'
This she told in letter to the mother, Mrs.
Milliam Mclean, Dunmore, Pa.
The dying boy made the "boy problem crystal
clean. 1t is the solution. So long as boys moth
er is his Sweetheart he will do no wrong.
Of course, all boys haven't living mothers.
And some mothers haven't learned how to be
their boys sweethearts from cradle to manhood.
Ben McLean's mother knew how.
The country owes a big debt to his mother for
the gift of her son. and second only to that comes
the gratitude of all mothers to her for thus point
ing the way they may keep their boys going right.

UNCLE SANS PLAN FOR CUTTING THE
COST or EWING NEEDS BROADENING'$

e Uncle Sans new plan for reducing the high
d cost of living LOOKS LIKE A GOOD THING.
" That is, good thing for the producers and con-
sumers of farm food products.
/, 1t also looks like bad thing for the profteer
Il and the dealer in these articles.
Let's TAKE ANOTHER LOOK.
g This is the plan: Organize farmers to bring
food products to rural schoolhpuses, Parcel post
motor trucks take these articles to- city school
houses, where organized consumers buy and lug
them away in baskets, wheebarrows or autos.
The farmer gets better prices The consumer
gets lower prices. The parcel post gets more bust
ness. Former auto trucks by the thousands are
kept busy. The profiteer is left stranded.
The plan is to be applied in local units all over
the United States
There! What's the matter with that for a
swat at the high cost O living?
The plan does not go far enough-not yet any
way. 'Becausegit does not provide for the equt-
able distribution of food products the country over
If there is potato shortage in Michigan and a
huge over-crcp Of potatoes in Aroostook, Me-,
what's the answer? The answer is that some
agency, should ship potatoes from Maine to Michi-
gan.
This equalizing Of distribution is of the very
highest Importance. 1t is absolutely necessary
to the real success of any farm to table" plan
absolutely necessary in lowering the high cost of
living.
All the cooperative plans that have failed have
fallen down because they were inadequate some
where along the line from the farmer to the city
consumer. .~
The distribution problem can't be solved on any
easy-going basis, either 1t must be done scien-
fiicallv if IL is to he done ripht1v
Statistics of production, of consumption, of
needs must be compiled each season, and supplies
automatically distributed.
Joseph did it in Egypt 1900 years ago. Are
we any less intelligent now?
Uncle Sans plan needs broadening.

CANADIAN MONEY

Local Clearing House Set
Three Per Cent as Dis
count for Currency.

Beginning on Tuesday, April /, all
of the banks of-Grand Forks and East
Grand Forks will discount all Canad-
ian currency and Canadian items at
three per cent, according to an
~nouncement made today through the
Grand Forks clearing house. This
action is made necessary because Of
the high rate of premium on Ameri-
can exchange in Canada, caused by
the embargo placed on Canadian gold.
The rate of discount of Canadian
paper was formerly two per cent but
the unbalanced trade conditions exist
ing between the two countries has In
creased the demand for Canadian
credits in this country the local banks
considered it expedient to raise the
discount rate to offset the increasing
overbalance OF trade. According to
n current pamphlet issued by a New
York bank, the balance of trade
which at present exists in favor Of
the United States, makes it necessary
to create a credit in this country for
the benefit Of Canadian buyers. In

Speedway Track At
indianapolis Was
. First In Country

Indianapolis Ind, March 31.-Wm
speedway racing survive? That
question is being asked by many de-
voices of the sport. Speedway racing
was first introduced in America in
1909 by the promotion of the Indian
apolis motor speedway. The idea
originated in the fertile brain of Carl
G. Fisher, who enlisted as his asso-
| ciates in the venture j. A. Allison, A.
&c. Newly and F. H. Wheeler, all OF
Indianapolis.
The original track vas completed
in ugust of 1909 and the first racing
events were held on August 10, 20 and
81. The track was Of taroid construc-
ton and failed to stand the wear OF
speeding rae cars. Due to the tre-
mendous speed. great ruts were worn
at the turns which caused many dis
astrous accidents. Immediately after
the first races the owners decided to
pave the track with brick and work
was started at once and was complet-
ed early in 1910. Since that time
many improvements have been added
to this great speed course. Among
these are safety aprons for the turns.
retaining walls, additional grand
stands, tunnels and better inside
roads.
During the year 1910, racing activi-
lleS were COIliIIleu " SiiOlL 1dSSS,
which were held during the months of
May, July and September. Following
closely the races in September, 1910,
came the announcement that startled
the automobile racing world-a 500
mile race for a cash purse of $4,000.
a sum unhcard of or even dreamed
of to be offered for an automobile
racing contest. Prior to that time the
most famous race course was the
Brooklards track, in England.
Since that time numerous race
courses have been built in America.
notably the Sheepshead bay track at
New York. the Cincinnati speedway
and the uniontown (Pa.) speedway.
II addition to these, specially on
structed tracks have been built at At
lanta, Los Angeles, Omaha. Des
Moines. Minneapolis and Chicago, but
for various reasons have been aband-
oned.
The Indianapolis track, the parent
speedway of America. has probably
paid out in purses as much as the
combined purses of all other Ameri-
can speedways, to which might also
be added the purses paid out in con-
nection with all American automobile
road races. In 1912, 1913, 1914 and
classic was cut to 500 miles in 1916
and the purse to $40, 600.
Concretely, the Indianapolis motor
speedway will have awarded, when
this years purse of $4,000, to be
contested for on May 81, is included,
$335,490 in purses. A conservative
estimate of the numbers who have
attended speedway races places the
figure at about one-half million,

HUI WATER FOR
SICK HEADACHES
IeHs why everyone should drink

in it before breakfast.

Headaches arc causeu by auto-in
toxication-whch means self-poison
ling. Liver and bowel poisons called
toxins, sucked into the blood excite
the heart which pumps the blood SO
fast that 1t congests in the smaller
arteries and veins Of the head, pro.
ducing violent, throbbing pain and
distress, called headache. You be.
come nervous, respondent, sick, few.
ertsh and miserable, your meals sour
and almost nauseate you. Then you
resort to acetanilid, aspirin or the
bromides, which temporarily relieve
but do not rid the blood Of these
irritating toxins.
A glass Of hot water with tea.
spoonful OF limestone phosphate in
1t, drank before breakfast will not
only wash these poisons from your
system and cure you OF headache, but
will cleanse, purify and freshen the
alimentary canal.
Ask your pharmacist for a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate. 1t is
inexpensive, harmless as sugar.
III you aren't feeling your best, IL
tongue is coated or you wake up
with bad taste, foul breath or have
colds, Indigestion, biliousness, con.
supation or sour, acid stomach, begin
