Where, oh! where is the spirit Of the city?
Devils Lake, according to officials of the Great
Northern railway in a formal statement over a
ago, declared this city is the most ideally
situated from a railway standpoint in North
Understanding this state. Devils Lake turn
ed down even a chance to bid for state owned
mills and elevators-perhaps fairly-but are
there not other industries which could be brot
here. We have a flour mill doing a steadily
growing business, one of the best of it's kind in
the state. We nave a creamery and produce
plant, the finest in the whole Northwest. We
have two wholesale bakeries, perhaps not the
largest, but we claim, the best in North Dakota.
We have a scattering of small outcroppings of
what may someday develop into real industries
But:
Why not go after something more? Is a half
dozen little and big concerns doing a general
state business anything to add to the momentum
of a city that instead of a pesky 5000 popula-
ton ought to be 10000 or more? Looks like,
we'll, the business men might possibly begin the
stirring up of things a bit with a prospect of
ultimate success in bringing in "added industry -

FARMERS GETTING RICH?

Those who think the farmers of this country
are getting rich might learn something from
the reports of the census bureau, when they
will find that the mortgage debts of the Ameri-
can farmers increased more than 100 percent
in the decade ending in 1920; the increase being
from $1,72O,172,851 to 4,912,711,213. The
census bureau tells us further that these mort
cages amount to 29.1 per cent. of the value of
the farms, which are estimated to be worth
1872, 29,610. The average amount of the
farm loans is $3,361. This does not indicate
that the farmers are getting exceedingly
wealthy, neither does it indicate that they are
losing money. The increase in farm loans dur
ing the last decade was only 1.8 per cent. The
increase does not seem to be mechanically
correct; but when we consider that the increase
in the value of the farms has been 117.6 per
cent. it is easily accounted for. On the other
hand the increase in mortgages has been due
to the fact that there has been a widespread
among tenants to become farm own
ers, and that the Federal government has made
it easy for these aspirants to obtain loans.

A TEST OF ROADS

The rains of Monday night and yesterday
morning gave the state highway between
Grand Harbor and Devils Lake a real test. Fine
thorofare. But let us add lots of travel and it
won't stand up without crawling. Ruts, hub
deep were the earmarks Of the route for over
five miles yesterday afternoon. Advertised and
boosted, it's now a thorofare that needs gravel!
gravel! gravel! No blame to the engineers-but
DUN fooled financing of the state and federal
highway project that don't allow the officials
to finish the job.

O FOR A TOOTH?

WHY harbor revenge? No man can afford a
place in his heart for that relic Of barbarism. 1t
makes no friends. How much better to make due
allowance for others and forgive their short
comings and their evil or thoughtless acts, even
though they do harm. Put yourself in the other
fellows place. Look upon all sides of the mat
ter, and perhaps it will not appear to be so bad
after all. In nature almost any wound will heal,
and all wounds will heal in healthy flesh. Think
it over and your wounds will heal if your mind
is healthy. can eye and a tooth for a tooth" may
have had a place in ancient or medieval times;
but in these modern days of Christian intel
ligence forgiveness is far the better way. We
are not savages, and there is no good reason
why we should step backward or allow our pas
sions to force us into a state bordering upon
savagery. The man who is revengeful thinks all
the world is wrong; that he and perhaps a few
of his friends are right. 1t may be that there is
something wrong in his calculations. Look the
matter over carefully and perhaps the man you
think has injured you may be a better friend to
you than the man you think of as near perfec-
ton. The man who harbors revenge has a dis
torted mind. His mental process is out of regis
ter. He sees only results and never inquiries into
the motive. Taken at its best, revenge is in
human, or at least a beastly condition of mind
that no man or woman possessing the Christian
spirit can afford to be in. Cast the evil thing out
of your heart and look upon your fellow men
with compassion. Weigh all men with justice
and you will find that we are all pretty good fell
lows after all, and that it is not for the best
that we are all cast in the same mold. Variety
is necessary to 1iven up this hum-drum life, and
really there is much good in the other fellow,
and ne may be a far better friend to you than
you imagine.
