KEEP HIM ON THE GROUND.


Down in Omaha an aviator was ar
rested the other day. and because there
r nc city ordinances regulating air
traffic a charge Of reckless driving
was filed against him. An account OF
the exploits of the air man rent out
from Omaha says:
He is recognized as n of the most
daring and expert aviators who his
ever taken totthe air. Last Saturday
he, few down from his home town and
reaching the air above Omaha, COM
menced to perform a series of hair
raising stunts. He few w the streets
at a height of less than 100 feet from
the ground and then moving to q
higher air current, with the wings of
his machine, wiped the dust from the
roof of such buildings as the Wood
men of the World. Telephone Ex-
change, Hotel Fontenelle and others.
People gasped as he swooped down
along Farnam and Douglas streets. .
'"Completing his flights over the city
the flyer mounted the higher air cur
rents and then coasted to the Omaha
landing field where he was arrested"
The man who performed in this
manner is doubtless skillful. Also he
is a reckless fool. During his perform
ance he endangered the lives Of hun
dreds Of people, because he could not
know that his machine would not go
wrong at N moment, and if it had
gone wrong all his skill would have
been unavailing to prevent fatalities.
The man who has SO little sense Of his
responsibilities ought not to be per-
mitted to drive anything more rapid
than a w~heelbarrow.

HOUSING THE RICH,

If the state of North Dakota had
plenty of money to loan, and all press
ing demands had been met, there
would be no reason why it should not
loan four or v thousand dollars each
to William Lemke and his wealthy
friends to aid in the construction of
ten Dr. twelve thousand dollar resi-
dences. But the North Dakota home
building law was not enacted for the
purpose Of finding an avenue for the
safe and profitable loaning Of money
It was understood by the people of
the state to be intended for the pur-
pose Of aiding citizens of the state in
the acquisition Of homes, particularly
where this would have been difficult
without such aid.
The law was advertised as a benefit
to the poor man. But when a group
Of plain working people propose to
organize a building association under
this law they are told that the funds
are all exhausted, and IL they want to
build they will have to raise the money
themselves. At the same time the state

 Bob Dean had a lot of the most modern farm machinery on the street last week. He sold one tractor with a two row planter and two row cultivator attach ments to Willie Williams. He can blow two rows at once. and that alone may mean saving the entire crop in wet weather. And with an extra man the cultivators can he run day and night. That would he four days work with an ordinary cultivator, not counting the extra speed of the motor drawn cultivator, in one dry day in a wet season. Mir. Dean also had a:gang turning blow drawn by a large tractor. Of course harrows, mowers, etc. can be attached to these tractors In this shortage of labor these machines will become the main stay of farming.
 Emmett Hamm and family are moving to Ozark this week and will occupy the house Garland Hamm has had remodeled. Mrs. Hamm, their mother. will come later and make their nome here we extend to them a most cordiaI welcome.
