HIGH

Some brilliant Substantive have
forgotten where-proposcs a law pro-
hibiting the wearing by women OF
shoe heels more than one and one
half inches high. And. according to
the story. the man proposes this thing
seriously.
We have insisted AL along that
there is no such thing as a "women's
vote,' and that women could not be
got to vote in a group on any candi-
date or measure. We take it all back.
The women would vote solidly against
high heel legislation. Not all of them
are in favor of high heels. But
il any fool legislator, no matter
where, undertakes 10 put owe a law
telling the women what they shall
wear and what they shall not wear,
the womanhood OF the country would
unite as one manor woman-in adj
vising said legislator to go chase him.
self.
On second thought, it wouldn't be
q woman's vote at all. All the men
would vote with the women, and
there we should be just where we
were before.

PROPER ASSISTANCE GIVEN.

N- . r. L-L - L. Is.
It is gratifying to note in all the re-
cent statements made by state officials
at Bismarck relative to the banking
situation, that no word Of criticism
of the general banking. interests of
the state has been made, nor is there
a suggestion that there has been any
failure on the part Of the bankers
generally to give what support they
could to the institutions which, by
reason of crop shortage and other un-
avoidable causes, were in temporary
difficulties. Neither does it appear
that the>general attitude of the bank
crs generally toward the Bank of
North Dakota IA been other than
cordial and helpful in relation to the
support to be given the bank during
the period when h transfer Of funds
from the state i%nstitution to the local
repositories will be in progress.
Wild and sensational statements to
the contrary in certain newspapers
are wholly unsupported by the Off
Gals Of the state.

WORRY.

There are various kinds Of worry and
l know that sages a
should break the worrying habit
n put all9our fears away,
'Tis a fool who worries vainly over
things he cannot mend
Or spoils the joy o~fspleasure by the
ass dread that it will end, ~
there comes to every fellow on
this planet called the earth
Times he really ought to worry if he
wants to prove his worth.
/ never see a youngster romping on
the streets in play
But I Wender IL his father ever
worries through the day.
Does he worry for his safety, does he
worry for his care?
Does he worry for his future and the
burdens h e5nust bear?
Does the big e ever strike him, as
he@ kisses him at night.
That in some way. as his parent, lie
may nj be doing fight?
Man cannot escape from worry, can
not smile at self disgrace,
He cannot sit down contented, shirk-
ing tasks he ought to face;
BY his moral obligations to be just
and clean and true,
He is bound at, times to worry yer
what is fair to do,
And there's none 8 o5rich in wisdom
but must sometimes sit at nigh,
And worry lest his Judgment shall
not lead him to the right.

intention 10 retain his seat until
q Republican governor takes his place.
when Mr.. Willis, who has already been
elected, will be appointed to serve dur
Ing the ensuing few weeks which will
before his elective term be-
gins. 1t is quite possible that Senator
Harding will resign earlier than he
had intended, as Governor Cox is re-
to have volunteered to appoint
Willis II the vacancy is created
during his term. On the whole, it is
to be hoped that this may be done,
not that it will be of any great prac-
teal importance, but the courtesy OF
an appointment by Governor Cox
would help a little to soften some Of
the asperities Of the late campaign.
To the country, and to his late COL
leagues in the senate. MI. Harding is
the future head of the nation rather
than a member of its legislative body,
In the preparation for the work which
he is to undertake he has new duties
which will necessarily require atten-
ton which ne could not give while
actually serving as a senator He ap-
peared on the scene, therefore, merely
to arrange for a pair and to greet1and
bid farewell to his associates.
The course which Mr.. Harding a
pursued during the campaign and
since his election gives assurance that
his purpose is to work with congress
rather than to seek to impose his will
upon that body. There is in this re-
spect a distinct advantage in having
as president q man who has been a
member of one OF the two branches
of congress. His legislative service
has placed him in contact with tina
branch of the government with which,
in future, he must work in harmony
if the country is to be properly sery-
ed.
There is a tendency always to ex-
aggerate the importance Of ones W
department, and that tendency has
often been shown Ey members of con-
gress no less than by presidents. Each
department has its separate functions,
and it must never be forgotten that
the president is the real G of the
government, and not a mere agent to
record the decisions of others. But
legislative experience is a valuable as
set to a president, and while we need
not expect that President Harding
will subordinate his office, he will be
ate to approach the problems which
he and congress must solve together
with a. sympathetic understanding OF
the spirit which is exhibited in con-
gress. The prospects are that we are
lacked for some years-team work.

LTERACY AND CITIZENSHIP.

immigration Commissioner Wallis
literacy test prescribed for immi-
grants is a farce. He is right. Ability
to read is not an indication of fit
ness for citizenship. Illiteracy is not
an indication that the individual is
not likely to. become a good citizen.
In the sections from which many
of our immigrants come illiteracy is
the usual condition. There it is no
more a mark of inferiority not to be
able to- read than it was in the early
ages a mark of inferiority for anyone
to be ilfiterate. The need for education
has not there been recognized, and
opportunities for it have not been pro-
vided. Illiterates who have come to
his country have. very often become
highly desirable citizens.
On the other hand, some of the
most dangerous characters we have,
whether among our native born or
among the immigrant population, are
not only able to read and write, but
are thoroughly familiar with all the
forms associated with advanced edu-
cation. To call4them well educated
would be an improper use of the term
for no person is well educated whose
learning is of a character to lead him
to false conclusions or to give him a
false conception of life.
Professional agitators are usually
well read in the particular lines of lit
erature which appeal to them. They
have assimilated a mass Of falsehoods
and half-truths and these they are able
to present in the guise Of truth. The lit
eracy test does not exclude these per
sons. 1t does tend to exclude some
excellent timber.

PRODUCTION OF GRAPES IS LESS
 THAN DEMAND

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16 (by Associ- ated Press) When the nation went dry by federal amendment may of the grape growers thought they would be forced into some other line of busi- ness because of the subsequent cess ation of wine production but reports to the bureau of markets show that the demand for manufactured grape products now exceeds the supply.
 The production of unfermented grape juice and of jams and jellies is utilizing an increasing tonnage of grapes each year, these reports state, and in not far distant future, it is expected the annual production of grapes will not meet the demand.
