Whenever there's task to do
It means the world has need of YOU.
Whenever there's a hammer raised,
Wherever metal must he brazed.
Whenever nail is driven in,
Or fixed a tiny cotter pin,
There shall be when the work Is DER
More Joy than men have known be-
fore.
The man who puts his hand to toll,
The ploughboS turning up the soil.
The laborer or mechanic skilled.
Give something Of themselves to build
The better world: a duty done
Improves the path men travel on.
And there's no deed so common place
But what bestows it's sum Of grace.

MINNESOTA FIRES
ARE UNDER CONTROL;
LONG FIGHT ENDED
Heavy Rains Over Entire Sec
tiOn Aids Troopers Who
Have Battled Blaze.

McGrath, Mimi, Sept Forest,
brush and grass fires north Of here
and west of Onamia, fought for three
days by state troops, rangers, settlers
and townspeople, appeared definitely
under control Wednesday night, after
heavy rains over the entire affected
region.
The first rain fell near Onamia, COM
pleting the work of the fire fighters,
who had almost conquered the flames
with backfires, and late in the day,
along the White Pine Solana sector.
fires were declared controlled. heavy
showers having added an element of
certainty.
With the atmosphere heavy and only
river valley east of Duluth were de-
clared virtually checked, by H. G.
Webber, supervisor of forest rangers
for northeastern Minnesota Other
fires in the Duluth district were said
to be under control
Naturally, there still remains the
possibility that the fires will burst out
anew. A hot sun Thursday would dry
ont the grass again with a resultant
menace but forest and military Off
cials were taking what precaution
they deemed necessary to prevent a
general re-kindling of the flames.
A recapitulation of fire damage Of
the past three days shows only the
small settlement of White Pine de-
stroyed and a few scattered farm
buildings wiped out, There have been
no fatalities and only minor injuries
have been reported.

APANESE OBJECT
To DISCUSSION Of
EASTERN PROBLEMS
Island Kingdom Papers Believe
Conference Should Be Linz
tied to Armaments.

Toxic, Aug. 17.-(Correspondence OF
The Associated Press. 1.-THE Gravity
of the situation created by the coming
| international conference at Washington
| lies, not in the disarmament suggestion
but in the proposal for discussing all
questions bearing on the Pacific and
F! the far east says the Diplomatic Re-
view, which is supposed to have imper-
ialistic leanings.
This magazine, which, with its num-
erous Japanese contemporaries, is de-
voting much space to the forthcoming
Washington conference, says:
''Bluntly speaking, the Anglo-Japan-
ese alliance has fulfilled its mission
in it's first stage. Now that the League
Of Nations has been formed and a
treaty of general arbitration made
among the principal powers of the
world, there is hardly any country
likely to be called upon to act by the
treaty of alliance.
''As regards the United States, which
is not member Of the league, an un-
derstanding ALREADY has been reached
between Britain and Japan previous to
the formation of the league" the article
continues, adding:
This being so, the formal renewal,
or non-renewal of the alliance is not
question of such urgency as is supposed
in some quarters. In diplomatic rela-
flons, however, it goes without saying
that the tradition of the past 20 years
should be sincerely respected"

GOVERNMENT AND
BUSINESS Do NOT
MIX, SAYS FORBES
Member of Philippine Mission
Claims Nation Must Stay Out
of Personal Enterprises.

Manila. Sept. THAT government
in business does not pay was the
declaration of w. Cameron Forbes,
member of the Wood Forbes mission
In an address before the American
Chamber of Commerce here Wednes-
day.
The government should get out of
business and stay out Mr.. Forbes
said.
Speaking of the Manila railroad COM
pany, which is government owned, Mr..
Forbes said that he was not opposed
to the government taking over rail
road securities or those of other
public service corporations, but he
asserted that he believed actual oper-
alton should be left in the hands of
private companies. He added that he
did not know of government operated
railroad anywhere that was run econo-
mically. Mr.. Forbes concluded:
"The Philippine governments ex-
periences in coal, cement. oil, cordage
and banking lines are demonstration
of what many knew before-that gov
ernnent in business does not pay. T
stand positively on the proposition
that the government should get out
Of business and keep out"

contents into small bag they
brought with them.
Both men were suffering from

they arrived in the city. For i
hours it was not possible to remain
in the mail car on account of the
fumes.

WAR FINANCELOANS
FOR MONTANA TO BE
ISSUED AT HELENA
7. A. NARROW, Chairman Of Federal Reserve
Board at State Capital, Back From Portland
With Announcement Agricultural Relief.

Helena, Sept. TT. A. Marlow
| chairman of the board of the Helena
federal reserve bank, announced Wed
nesday night that, within a week, a
district committee will be prepared to
handle loans under the act of con-
gress through the War Finance cor
poratlon, to assist the agricultural and
livestock interests of Montana. The
business will be handled from this
city.
Mr.. NARROW, who returned from
Portland, was appointed last Saturday
as chairman of the loan committee for
Montana by Eugene Meyers, Jr., chair
man of the War Finance corporation.
Mr.. NARROW stated, on Mr.. Meyers
authority, that committees for the re-
malnder of the district probably will
be appointed this week and organiza-
ton perfected possibly by next Mon
day or Tuesday
1t was announced at the Portland
conference which Mr. NARROW attend
ed that instructions and blanks and
forms for loan applications are being
printed at Washington and it is be-
lieved will be received in time to be-
gin operations next week.

ed the chairman of the districts with
headquarters at Spokane, Portland.

| are now in process of printing at
| Washington, if not already printed,
| and it is believed will be received in
time to begin operations by the first
! of the coming week" said Mr.. Mar
| low.
| Loans generally will be made through
borrowers home banks and full partic-
| ulars will be forwarded to every bank
| in Montana, at once, upon receipt from
| Washington
THE conference has convinced me
that it is the intention of the board
of the War Finance corporation to ad-
minister the relief contemplated by the
act in the broadest and most generous
manner possible, consistent with reas-
onably prudent business methods and
particularly to divorce it from red tape
and delays of any kind, it being real
lied to be effective, it must be rendered
quickly
Mr.. Marl0w is strongly of the opin-
ion that the contemplated loans which.
In the case of livestock, can be made to
run for as long as three years. will be
liberal enough in their terms to end the
wholesale shipment to market of young
nd immature cattle and sheep which
is now taking place or in contemplation
by Montana's livestock growers.
He strongly advises that such ship
ments cease or, at least, be postponed
until full particulars can be had by
growers as to contemplated loans.
The war finance corporation has a
revolving fund which makes available
of 100000, 1000.
