sections, and an actual suffering

sections, and an actual suffering
for medical attention in many
places-and there is a tendency
toward almost prohibitive prices in
some communities. -. Unless our
medical associations devise some
plan of admitting to the profess
sion the kind of men who can
serve and will serve such COM
munities-serve them just as they
now are and will be for a genera
ton to come-and unless the vari-
GUS denominations do likewise for
the ministry, a most grievous in
Justice will be worked increasingly
against these unfortunate COM
munities. The Herald is heartily
sympathetic with the religious and
medical leaders who are agitating
for better-trained men in their
professions; but there rests upon
these leaders a moral obligation to
recognize the fact that a uniform
rule will not do and that Dur min
isterial groups and our medical
associations must find some prac-
teal way to meet the imperative
needs of this complex situation"
We would not deprecate the
services rendered by the good old
family doctor" in the country. He
was an educated gentleman as a
rule, though possibly in some
cases one who did not keep up
to the latest medical knowledge.
Yet often he did just that, and
if he was lacking himself in surgi-
cal or medical skill required he
advised his patient where to get
it. But the idea that special med
ical training and up to date scien-
tific knowledge is not necessary to
make a good country doctor is
hardly sound in our opinion. A
mar may develop into a good
preacher and pastor without any
special training in the schools, but
for the practice of medicine we
would think such training abso-
lutely necessary. In fact the two
professions of the care of souls
and the care of bodies are very
different things, and what may
make for success in one would be
apt to make for failure in another.
The problem of good medical serv-
ice for remote country districts is
a difficult one, but it is not to be
solved by making doctors out of
poorly trained men in the pro-
fession.

THE PRIMARY


DETITIONS for the amendment
of the present primary cleo
ton law are now being circulated
in Cascade county. 1t is proposed
to amend the law through the exer-
else of the initiative and refer
endum, and it will require the
signature of about 1900 voters in
this county to the petitions. These
will have to be obtained during
the next week or 10 days be-
cause the time is getting short.
Some Of the petitions will be found
at the office Of the county clerk
and recorder, some at the office of
the Commercial club in the Rain
bow hotel and others at The Tri-
bune office, hotels and other
places frequented by the public.
The amendment proposed prac-
tically restores the old convention
system of making nominations, the
primaries electing delegates to the
conventions. Those who favor
this change should get busy at once
and call at one of the places where
blank petitions are to be found and
sign them. To get 1900 names of
voters in a week is not much of
a task where some organization
with money to hire solicitors and
circulators is back of the move
ment. In this case there is no
money available for such hired
service. Those back of the move
ment must rely on the patriotic
spirit of the voters. Therefore, we
hope that all our readers in Cas-
cade county will take steps to see
that their names 60 on the petit
ton if they approve Of this change
in the law. If they wish to OBJ
tain a blank petition to circulate
AL tISil oCSliOl VI lit NONAitA J,
they can get it by writing to N. T.
Lease, Great Falls, Montana, who
has a supply OF hand. The petit
tons, when signed, have to go to
the office of the county clerk and
recorder to check up the names
and see that they are bona fide
voters, and certify to that effect.
Any adult person, male or female,
whose name was on the voting list
at the last general election or who
has registered since that time is
entitled to sign these petitions.
We are not going to argue the
merits of this proposed amendment
to the primary election law at this
time. We have done that time
and again in these columns. We
believe that the amendment will
save the county and state tax
payers a lot of money and that it
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-06-12

will give US better men in office
besides. We may add as = final
proof of the sincerity of The Tri-
bune in making this statement that
it will reduce the value of the
county printing contract which
The Tribune now holds, because
it will eliminate a considerable
proportion of the election print
ing, which is the most profitable
part of a county printing contract.
So far as the financial interest of
any newspaper goes, it lies on the
side Of maintaining the present
primary law just as it is. There
fore when a newspaper advocates
a change such as is contemplated
in this initiative measure it cannot
be charged that it is moved by
any selfish interest. However, the
cost of the primary system is not
the most telling argument against
it. 1t lends itself to all sorts of
political deception and intrigue,
and it gives US poorer officials.
1t gives the political demagogue
who is without principle or
scruples his best chance and keeps
better men out.
If you are in agreement with
these statements Of fact, lose no
time in getting your name on an
initiative petition. IF you do it
in business hours you can always
get one at the office of the county
clerk and recorder, and by the way,
if you did not vote at the last gen
eral election that is a good place
to go, because you can get your
name on the voting list at the
same time, signing the petition
afterwards. If it is after bust
ness hours, you can find a petition
to sign at The Tribune office up
to 9 p. M, or eve later in the
editorial rooms of this newspaper.
This is your business. Attend to
it now.

The HaSkin Letter
By FREDERICK
]. HASKzN
THE CASE OF THE CORSET

emphasized and increased. Still an
other called eloquently for the abolition
of all corsets forever.
His plea was just a decade too soon.
Ten years later. the feminine reaction
against tight and heavy corsets started
in, with the result that today corsets
are practically unknown among the
flapper population. Persons who claim
to know say that the uncorseted era
is now definitely here; that the young
m of today, never having worn
them. probably never will. But in view
of all the corset's irregular history,
this conclusion seems a bit uncertain.
Already there are faint signs that it is
returning to favor-not because physi-
clans now approve of it, but because
the Partisan designers do.
