Just Folks
BY EdeaF D. GueSk
THE SINGLE

are a thousand ways to cheat
n a thousand ways to sin,
are ways uncounted to lose the
game, but there's only way
to win;
whether vol live by the sweat of
your brow or in luxury's garb
you're dressed,
You shall stand at last, when your
race is run. to be judged by the
single test.
Some men lie by the things they make.
some lie in the deeds they do.
And some play false for a woman's
love. and some for a cheer or
two;
Some rise to fame by the force of
skill, grow great by the might
of power.
Then wreck the temple they toiled to
build, in a single, shameful
The follies outnumber the virtues
good, sin lures In a thousand
ways,
But slow is the growth of a mans
character and patience must
mark his days;
For only those victories shall count,
when the work Of life is done
Which bear the stamp Of an honest
man. and by courage and faith
were won
There r 4 thousand ways to fall.
Blu only one way to win!
Sham cannot cover the wrong you do
o wash out a single sin,
nev shall victory come to you,
whatever Of skill you do,
Save you've done your best in the
work Of life and unto your best
were true.

deals with the affairs Of North Dako-
u It enacts state laws and admins
ters them. It levies taxes to be paid
by the p~eopley-of the state for the
purposes OF the state. Its activities
are not related to any Of the func-
tions OF the national government, and
it Is not concerned with the issues on
which the two great national parties
are divided. There is no reason why
any person should vote for a candidate
for state, legislative, judicial or edu-
cational office in North Dakota be-
u of his attitude on any Of the
questions recently considered at the
Chicago or San Francisco conventions.
Az a matter Of fact, a very large mum
Der of our citizens. perhaps a major
ity Of them, actually disregard party
Affiliations now in making their de-
cisions on state affairs, In spite of the
barriers which are supposed to keep
party members within their respect
i've folds.
Why not simplify the situation by
discarding the fiction of party in state
affairs and concentrating party activ-
ity in the one field where party activ-
ity belongs. the field of national poll
tics?
And why not eliminate the primary
election altogether for the filling of
these places and accomplish the re-
suit as certainly and as we'll by the
properly regulated use Of the second
choice vote?
These objects might be achieved by
the adoption Of some such program
as. this:
Elect all officials from state officers
down on a ~non-partisan basis.
Let all nominations be by petition.
Eliminate the primary and let the
second choice vote AXE it's place.
Abolish the use of stickers and the
writing of names on ballots.
This last provision would not be es-
sential to the carrying out of the 9TH
ers, but it would bring every candida
cy out into the open, and would pre-
vent the secretive methods occasional
ly employed to slip unknown candi-
dates into office.

REUNITED.

Today will be a great day in Den
mark. as 1t marks the formal restora-
ton to the little kingdom by the North
Sea of at least a portion of the terri
tory of which it. was deprived long
ago by its predatory neighbor.
Tho restoration of North Schles-
wig is of the concrete results of
the peace agreements, and a most
gratifying one. The difficulties at
tending the readjustment of the af-
fairs of Europe have been so great
that we have usually been more con-
cerned with the failures or DELAYS in
the settlements than with the success
es. But in the return of this portion
of Denmark we have one instance in
which the peace settlement worked
out in an equitable and reasonably
speedy manner.
The Danish government and people
did not expect or desire the return of
all OF the territory filshed from the
Kingdom. In the years that have
passed a portion of that territory has
become in actual fact more German
than Danish. and there was no desire
on the part of the Danes to lay the
foundations or trouble for themselves
by incorporating into their kingdom
a large German element which would
be likely to rbea source of trouble
later on. Many of the German resi-
dents would have been pleased to be
included in the Danish kingdom. as in
that way they would have escaped
some of the burdens of war settle
ment which will be placed upon them.
Denmark gets back the greater portion
OF thai which was once hers, and in
which the population is racially and
In sentiment still strongly Danish.

CHAPTER XIII,

The tracker stood unbelievably
erect, heels of the ground. 1t. was as
though by an effort of will he had sus-
pended himself in air, so still was he,
to the act of listening. Suddenly his
wide nostrils quivered with a visible
fluttering and distended till their out
err rimsj showed white. A look of
sensual and ineffable content spread
over his face as he drew down into
his lungs that breath of tainted
breeze. He smelled the prey; the
wind was right.
Presently Andrea caught the odor
and her whole body trembled as from
an overmastering physical contact.
This smell was unlike all others; the
mind gave 1t color and substance. It
crept through the forest like a dark
cloud, an omtnous warning to all frsil
creatures to get out of the way. She
felt suddenly cold and glanced over
her shoulder with a half-formed no.

Andrea was suddenly aware that
M'sungo carried the big gun. It's dead

and spread and throb till it hung in
the air like some sitting all-per-

beat with an irregular rat-rat-tat and
breath came in hurried gasps. In spite
OF the men before her, Andrea felt
alone, adrift on a sea Of unseen but,
lowering perils. She looked over her
shoulder. Only Bathtub was in sight
behind her, tense, one foot in air,
waiting for her to take her next step
before he placed his foot. His naked
body. exposed to the merciless sun,
streamed with sweat.
Andrea's shoulders ached from
holding her arms before her face to
ward of h interminably encroaching
vines and branches that seemed to OPP
pose the way but invariably parted at
her touch. Her tongue. was parched,
all her clothing laid hands on her
every motion with a clammy grip and
her body quivered on the fine edge of
exhaustion. but she hung on, her eyes
above dark shadows casting agonized
glances at M'sungo. If only he would
