REID CROSS DOCTORS TO
 INVADE CANADA WILDS

Saskatoon,> sask., Aug. Tine Canadian Red Cross is to shine out in the most isolated districts of Western Canada. Every farm house, regardless of location, is to be within easy distance of a hospital doctor or Red Cross nurse. New settlers, many of whom are locating on the fertile lands along the Canadian National Railways, are to. have quick medical assistance in case of illness.
 The movement had it's inception in Saskatchewan. Through cooperation of the Canadian Red Cross and the provincial board of health adequate funds, nurses and doctors have been provided. Small outpost hospitals under supervision of qualified attend ants already have been established at points not previously close to med icaI facilities.
 It is all a part of Canada's general health campaign. War on tonsils and adenoids in Western Canada, accord ing to statistics, has brought the health of children up to first rank among nations of the world.
 Cooperative hospitals maintained by a very slight tax on land, are op- erated in many districts. Farmers may go to these hospitals and have all the attention provided by medical science for S1 a day.
 Red Cross outpoStS are to be the last link in the good health chain that sirds Canada's prairie provinces.

GIRL ASSERTS RIGHT

Herkimer, N. Y, Aug. l. - Mike Pollack, of New Haven, Conn, for the present, at least, is a disappofnt- ed wooer- Paul Misloski, of Jordan vile, was. the object of Mikes affec- tions- Some years ago, when Paula's parents lived in the Connecticut city, the suitor took a fancy to the then sixteen -year-oId girl. This he made known to the girls parents who without PauIa's knowIedge agreed at a future time, that Mike should be- come their son-in-1aw. Meantime Mike saved his earnings, bought a house, arranged the details for the wedding, even to the flowers and music Recently the suitor, ten years Paula's senior came to JordanviIle to claim the hand of the young lady. She resented the family plans and went to the Sheriff for protection Mikes demands upon the Sheriff were met with advice to wait until ttaII' were ready for the ceremony

Paris, Aug. If you really love your best girl hand her a couple of quarters or a couple of s2O gold pieces with which to keep her stock ngs up.
 Mile. Suzanne Lenglen, woman ten his champion of the world, inaugur- ated the fad. She found that the round garter - the only Kind they wear in F'rance-bound her leg too tightly and shut off blood circulation. She discovered that by placing q. French "sou" or penny Tn the roll of her stocking and twisting it several times and then tucking it in at the top she had an admirable garter.
 French girls were quick to seize the opportunity to demand gold pieces and they are very rare in France of their lovers One French actress announces that she now Teeps hers up with gold pieces studded with d:a- mondS.

.When Somebody starts something

'fWhen somebody starts something in politics, you should ascertain the motive. Your own common sense will guide you. I can't tell you what to do. Don't ever expect to elect a saint. But when a man is in control of your city government, the best ser vice you can render to yourselves is to respect not only him, but the office he holds.
 .I am glad to be home. Thank you.'
 It was various1y estimated that from six to ten thousand men and women attended the outing, although larger than the average of summer Saturday. The attractions were many and the crowd kept shifting from one scene to another Bridgeports fire fighters were defeated by the visitors from Waterbury by a score of to 1; Dorothy Morris, of the Twelfth distdict, won the diamond ring in the popularity contest; Margaret Lesko won the bathing girls parade, and Samuel Levy won the prize for the funniest mans costume A thrill was furnished by Sergeant John D. Meeks, of tn 14th Aero Photographic section, when he dropped over 1000 feet in a. parachute.
 New York Aero Police Attend
 On of the most interesting side lights was the presence of two aero planes of the New York police re- serves The crowd seemed to be fas- cinated by the ying sleuths, a large group standing around the planes most of the time. Deputy Commis- sioner Joseph A. Faurot, the interna- tionally renowned finger print expert of the department, represented Com missioner Enright, while the squadron itself was in charge of Major Dwyer. The rest of the party was made up of Major O'Keefe, engineer of the squad ron, Major Vanderwater and Captains Clark and Gamble.
 The aerop1ane reserves have only been in existence for the past two years, but in that time they have proven their usefulness. The squadron has five planes. which are stationed at Fort Hamilton, and which patrol above the city whenever their is to be any flying going on. New York was the first city to make an air or dinance, no planes being allowed to fly lower than 2,000 feet above the city, and the police flyers see to it that the rule is observed. Most of the members of the squad received their training in the army and since l they have been organized as a unit there have been no accidents.

CAT AND FAMILY
 MISTAKEN FOR GHOSTS

Huntington, W. Va, Aug. 1--An-- other good "spook'' story has gone Hmmering- The theory that a house in HighIawn was haunted and that spirits were making definite and noisy demonstrat tons was exploded when the flooring on the top story was removed and the house cat, which had been imprisoned there for sew era1 days, marched blithely forth with nine little kittens in her wake. For several days wierd sounds had been emanating from various sources on the top floor of the house, and the occupants, who recently moved ln,4 were beginning to fear that there was, after all, something in the sup erstition about houses being haunted.
 When the family moved in 1t was necessary to have certain repairs made to the electric wiring. A part of the flooring was removed and later replaced. The cat went beneath thel flooring when it was torn up and wa, imprisoned inside by the electricians in finishing their work

utility temporary increased rate
pending final determination Of the
matter. In the fall If 1920 the
Northern States Power Co. again ap-
peared before the board and asked
for surcharge ranging from 25 to
80 per cent to enable the utility to
meet the increased cost Of coal. The
commission went into the matter and
decided such surcharge was JUS
tifiable. Later, however, the court
was asked to review the granting of
the srrcharge by the railroad COM
mission and it was held illegal on the
grounds that the order authorizing
the surcharge was signed by mem
bers of the commission but the COM
mission was not in session when it
was signed. The Northern States
Power Co.. then made an application
to have the temporary rates allowed
in the spring Of 1920 made perna-
nent, and the board is going into the
entire matter.

Lemke's Tuber Argument

DR.. Ladd and VIM. Lemke while
eating their meals on q dining car as
they travelled around peddling North
Dakota bonds, figured out the cost Of
a bushel of potatoes on the basis of
small dish of potatoes, compared that
price to the farmers selling price of
a bushel of potatoes, and then they
pronounced their discovery a real
"Big Biz profiteering.". Of course
no allowance was made for the many
trips of transportation, express
charges, handling, storing, etc.
This method of reasoning reminds
us Of iaborer's argument during
the war as to what price wheat ought
to be, and which was thus: "A farm
er takes bushel Of wheat, sows an
acre, sets down and watches it
grow, and we read in the papers
where they produce 20 bushels to the
acre, which at $3.50 per bushel would
make $4,000 per acre. He is the
biggest profiteer in the world"
Another laborer while discussing
the price of corn said: "A farmer
takes an ear of corn which cost five
cents, plants it and gets $50 stalks
which produce 600 ears or about four
bushels which he sells for $500 and
he did not do five cents worth of
work to produce the corn.
DR.. Shipstead, Dentist and candi-
date for governor of Minnesota last
year, said: II bought pair of shoes
before the war which cost $500 and
now they want $500 for the same
shoe, and it cost only 50 cents to make
it."
It was a North Dakota farmer
speaking at Appleton. MINI. who ex-
ploded DR.. Shipstead's argument
which turned the tide against him.
The farmer said AFTER repeating
DR.. Shipstead's statement: "Dr. Ship
stead takes 60 cents worth of al
luminum, rolls it around in his right
hand, passes it to his left hand,
spends fully half an hour in molding
a plate, and puts it into the mouth Of
the toothless man, then extracts $65
Compare the mediums, investment,
expenses, etc., of the dentists to that
of the shoes then you will see who is
a profteer.'
If William Lemke would just sit
down and figure out how much time
he devoted which gave him several
shares in the Courier-News, and the
Consumers Stores, and the time of
the attorneys in the railroad rate
cases and his own time, he would
find an answer to his "Tuber Argu-
ment" and no doubt he would be
willing to bury the potatoes.

$54,359 OPERATING MIN0T PLANT IN
1920 RAILROAD COMMISSION IS TOLD

the hearing in Minot last week, the
board has decided to hold q special
session in Bismarck Oct. 20 when the
valuation will be investigated. En-
gineers engaged by the state board
to value the Minot plant and affili-
ated interests have fixed the valuation
at $726,226. This figure does not
include working, cash capital or So
called growing value. The valu-
alton arrived at by Hagenah &
Erickson, Chicago engineers, for the
Northern States Power Co., was
$952,2O1. This figure includes the
two items not included in the figures
of boards engineers.
History of Case
The matter being taken up at this
hearing dates back to 1919 when the
Northern States Power Co. made an
application to the state board for an
increase of rates to meet increased
operations during the war period.
This application was heard in the
spring Of 1920 and in March the
board issued an order allowing the
