THE MOB SPIRIT.

The city OF Birmingham. Alabama has organized
to fight the usurpauon OF government by bands
Of midnight raiders. masquerading mentors OF
conduct.
general holiday was called banks and stores
closed great meetings held take sters to combat
the mob spirit which had come over that city and
which stopped. seemingly, at nothing.
Women as well as men had been taken from their
BONES a. night, driven 90 lonely spots the out
skirts and there beaten and rogged by their self
appointed judges.
Sometimes the bands of night raiders were mask
cd often they came from other parts of the city
and brazeny went about their work with no thought
Of coneealing their identity.
Thus far has one city progressed under that
wave Of mob spirit which had IFS birth in the secret
examinations formed TO fight aeainst certain
and religions and which went from that point TO
The correction OF public and private morals in
,ordancs with the views OF those who belong
So strong has this spirit Of governments by nobs
become that the regular city officials We're power
less and the holiday was called to devise means Of
once more restoring POWER to the regularly elected
officers
It is cutie probable that in the beginning the
whipping bands were inspired TO their purpose by
lack OF faith in law and in the orderly processes Of
TIE courts.
Many communities become impatient when The
forces or law break down. either through incom-
potency. through graft and favoritism. or through
The delays which technical lawyers obtain in the
courts
That gives birth that spirit OF vengeance which
enables some mad leader 70 form mo6s who take
the punishment Of vioiators into their owe hands
Nothing spreads Ike this mob spirit when once
II gets the blood OF and 1t is not surprising

YOUR HEALTH

This is the season when the young
folks start for college. An old friend
Of mine used TO say:
Boys are like watermelons just
so many get fipe every year"
No matter how hard the times
may be, no matter what sacrifices
must be made by Father and Moth
er, the children are sent TO college
To ecquire a college education IL
a great privilege, but to go TO college
to spend days and nights in riotous
living is a crime against opportunity,
against your parents self denial. and
against society.
Much is expected Of men and wo-
men with college educations- They
can serve in ways denied those not
so highly educated. 1t is their
privilege and their duty to make the
world better by reason of what the
university has given
What college viii do for you Is
largely determined by your first few
weeks Of residence. During thecc
weeks you form friendships which
will endure through life.
If these new friends are good men
and women they will help lift you
upward and forward But If they
are undesirable they will drag you
/ downward and backward. our
| scholarship. your health as well as
your morals depend to a great extent
upon your associates.
1t is an unwritten law that a stu
| dent must never try for admissic n
TO or make advances toward a fra

If you were unconscious Of the exis-
/ tence of these institutions. You
must appear to be appreciative OF

slightest idea you are being rush
ed" This is a form Of blindness and
stupidity expected Of the far-seeins
and bright freshmanl
In this connection let me give you
a bit of advice. While the wise
upper classmen OF the fraternity are
looking you over" during the rush
ing season." you do a little looking
over on your own account.
You want to know IL your pros
pective associates are clean men. :
How viii you determine this?
First, by their conversation. II you
listen long enough you will find ont
how they spend their evenings. They
will soon reveal their indulgence in
habits which undermine health and
decency. Look over the whole
crowd. and while they are studying
you, do a little quiet studying OF
your own. By the time the bid" IS
made you will be prepared to make
your decision.
At college. before you learn a lot
from books, learn to lead a regular
life. Bear in mind the need of sleep.
Do not rob Peter 10 pay Paul
do not stay up late at night and then
sleep through the breakfast hour.
Go to bed early so you can get up
for a good breakfast. Be regular IN
your meals, and careful of the food
you eat. Hot dogs" and "sundaes''
are not substitutes for real food.
Exercise regularly. Sleep in q
well-ventilatsd room. Keep your
room free from dust and smoke.
Swim and walk, ana run ans
jump. Go TO the gym" regularly
and have modest part IN the attn
letic life OF the college
without health an education is
valueiess.

AUTUMN.
It's getting on TO Fall again.
The crows begin to call again
And gather in the nearby woods
In strangely busy flockS;
The mist is on the hills once more,
And lavish Nature spills once more
a flood of shining gold upon
The humblest Of the stocks.
The woods are in their best today.
In bronze and scarlet dressed today,
They seem a patchwork counterpart
Of color and design;
We wake TO find at dawn again
Rich diamonds on the lawn again.

INTRODUCING
liza DUMBBEIL


Last, but not least. we want YOU
to meet liza DumbbeH. the latest
arrival in the Dumbbell family.
liza can't talk-he's too little.
But that doesn't make any differ
ence, for even If he could he's so
dumb he couldn't think of any
thing to say.
It is generally understood that
liza came to town by freight be-
cause he couldn't express himself
And Pa Whooza Dumbbell con-
tends that little liza thinks an
ocean liner is a two-base hit and
Noah's ark was a street light. In
the meantime, Ma Shurza Dumb
bell says that liza is smart enough
to know that Lohengrin is a laugh
and a cannon cracker is a biscuit.
On his own accord, liza believes
that a marcel wave is a by-by sign,
and that Mae Marsh is a swamp.
What the Dumbbelps don't
think, isn't worth thinking. And it
is true that they don't think.
That's why our star reporter in
sists on interviewing at least one
member of the family for your
benef1t.
Confidentially we think liza
would be a pretty fair sort Of a
skate but for the fact that he was
hit by a dumdum bullet when
very young in years.
We are in receipt OF a letter from
Current Opinion, which inquire
when we think Henry Ford is goinI
20 blow up. Personally we are no
worrying near as much about whel
Henry is going TO blow up as we d
about one Of his machines, that ha
previously been referred 70 from
time 70 time as the big closed job.

With gems surprising fine.
Though walk you west or east today
Your eye will have feast today.
For there is beauty all about
And splendor everywhere;
And it may be when strife is done
And all the toll OF life is done.
The charm OF peace shall settle down
And hide the lines OF care
Oh. always with the Fall again.
When beauty covers all again.
The thought returns: II God rewards
The humblest vine and tree.
IfSsplendor crowns their days at last.
Shall we not hear His praise at last.
Shall men not wear a glow Of pride
For what they tried 10 be?

states F. w. Christensen, animal nut
ritfon specialist. North Dakota Aert-
'ultural College. in reply to frequent
inquiries recently regarding the feed
ing value of potatoes.
Abount or pounds of potatoes
are required to equal pound of corn
Or barley in feeding value, accord
'ng to Mr.. Christensen. Not more
than 30 to 36 pounds of cooked no.
tatoes should be fed daily to one COW
as the quality Of the butter is likely
to be affeced unfavorably. Some
what less of the raw potatoes should
be fed.
For hogs, the potatoes should be
"ookd whenever possible as cooked
notatoes have a higher feeding value.
Raw potatoes have about two thirds
the feeding value of cooked potatoes
or hogs. The feeding of large
Quantities of raw potatoes to hogs ia
likely to produce scours thus de-
"reasing he gains. As a feed for
logs 1t will take about 4 pounds of
cooked potatoes to equal / pound Of
barley of pounds to equal / pound
OF corn. The best results are obtained
with potatoes when they are fed
along with grain. One pound of grain
to four pounds Of cooked potatoes
has given good results.
Wheather it will pay to cook po-
tatoes for feeding purposes depends
IN the cost Of fuel; additional labor
involved and other items. The cooked
potatoes are safer and more salts
