A Good Pal.

Do you ever stop to consider the
manner in which your boy employs
his spare time? Do you sit and read
or smoke or both and pay little
or no attention to him until he
does something of which you disap-
prove. then scold him? Or is he
out Of sight and out of mind. fol-
lowing his own inclination in the
Quest of amusement? Perhaps he is
in the company of boys whose con-
duct is open to question; boys who
swear and smoke and tell filthy
stores. 1t should not be and need not
be so.
Girls are naturally more inclined
to play the domestic games and to be
in the company of the mother. But
boys-are boys.
II is characteristic of the boy to
look UP to his daddy; to admire
him; to follow his example and to
initiate him. And nothing will
please him more than for you, his
father. to converse with him, not as
with little boy, but as with little
man.
Consider this plan for some Sat
urday or Sunday afternoon. Invite
him 10 join you in a walk. 1t mat
tiers little where you walk, that boy
will find coolies of questions to ask

NEW WHEAT CROP COMING IN
FREELY.

Bourbon county's new wheat crop
has been coming in freely from the
threshers, both by motor trucks and
wagons. The quality is reported as
medium, but the yield is falling far

Many crops have averaged as much
as thirty bushels.
Buyers are paying $2.14 per

THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT

The following is said to be the
shortest sentence that contains all
letters of the English alphabet:
pack my box with five dozen liquor
iugs." In view of the activity OF
government agents in looking for
violations of the prohibition laws, 1t
is likely to lead to some very much
longer sentences.

.PLEASANCE OF

PElylBIlNA QUITS
TOWNLEY GANG
States He Will qot be Bound
by Orders Apart From
His Beliefs.
(By STAFF Correspondent)

. i
Bismarck, N. D., JAN. 18.-Repre-
sentative Pleasance Of Pembina saved
the Nonpartisan league caucus the
trouble of ejecting him. After being
put on the carpet for voting with the
minority on the resolutions ratifytng
the constitutional amendments, Mr..
PleaSance made up his mind that he
would put himself out of the caucus
entirely. According to his statement,
he signed the caucus agreement, but
with the resolution that he would not
be bound to vote as dictated unless he
believed that way. .a4
There is no further work now for
the discipline committee, headed by
Walter Wexford. and Mr.. Pleasance's s
case has been dropped. 1t may be.
however, that another committee will
have to be named soon, for some Of
the leaguers are showing little in
dependence.
The next contest to come up is that
against Representative Murtha and
Roquette from Stark county, They
were members of the minority and
the leaguers are making a desperate
fight to gather enough evidence to un-
seat them. They base their contest
upon the contention that the election
judges in one precinct left the polling
places and took the ballots to the
homes Of sick voters. Roquette and
Murtha. carried this precinct. The two
representatives say they have evidence
to show that the leaguers did the
same thing in one of their strong pre-
cincts. if the votes of both precincts
are thrown out, Roquette and Murtha
still would have a majority, it is said
