OVERLOOKED

Have you ever done piece of work, conscious
at the time that something was vitally wrong with
it, but unable to figure out the defect until the job
was finished? ss3
The feeling that something is wrong" floats up
vapor-like from the subconscious mind, one OF
every PERSONS two brains.
A Toronto doctor toed evenings for two Wlnt-
ers building in his cellar an 18-foot motorboat for
Muskoka Lakes. All that time, he was conscious
that something was wrong. but could not figure
it out, though he pondered in detail everything
from engine to paint.
When it came time to take the boat to the
freight train, he abruptly learned what had both
cred his subconscious brain: There was no way
of getting the boat out of the cellar, except by
tearing big hole in the foundations OF the house
and digging deep opening to the outside.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
By Olive Barton Roberts

Nancy and Nick came to Cob Coon's
tree in Whispering Forest. Cob lived
in the Old Oak across the way from
Maple Tree Flats.
"Tap, tap, tap!" went Nick with
Cob's knocker on the basement door.
But no answer.
"He's too sound asleep to hear US. !"
said Nancy. "We'll have to go to his
other door upstairs" ,. ...
So they wished themselves up the
old Oak Tree in their Green Shoes.
Cob had his second story door open
for air and his bed close to the door
way. There he was, all cuddled up
and snoring like everything. >..
"Ahem" went Nick loudly.
Cob woke right up. ~ ..
"Who's there?" he called sharply.
"Just U.S." laughed Nancy. "Did we
scare. you?" 't
"sort off," yawned Cob. "But
what's wrong, folks?"
"We just came to see if you'd seen
anything of Peerabout, the Man-in-
the Moon. He's lost" said Nick.
"Hee, hee, hee" giggled Cob, clasp
ing his hands joyfully. "That's just
fine! Now l s'pose the nebby old
Moon will be stored away in camphor
balls and not bother me any more.
"Why, look at it tonight. Bright as
a sky-rocket! And I'm most starved
to death! .ye
II can't go down to Ripple Creek to
fish as on dark nights because Charlie
Club and Slippery Sinner and Mark

everybody.3o Goodness, he leaves it

HEALTH

Sawyer, physician to President Harding, pre-
diets that future doctors will be paid "for keep
ing people we'll rather than for caring for them
when they are sick" "
That is the Chinese system. Over there, doc
tor is paid so much day as long as the patient
is well. On days when the patient is sick, Doc
gets no pay which gives Doc an incentive to 40 MS
work thoroughly and not overlook any bets.
It wouldn't work in our country, where people
usually stay away from the doctor until they are
afraid of making the undertaker's acquaintance.

Letter T.

(By Justice J. e. Robinson)

June 16, 1922. The press report is
that Mr.. Stegner, candidate for Gov
ernor, avows that If elected he will
use every effort to undo the abomin-
able tax bondage and to 60 back to
the conditions which prevailed several
years ago. That is precisely what W.
attempted by means Of initiative pc
titions, to submit to the voters at the
June Primary, but as the petitions
were not given circulation by Mr..
Stegner or by other politicians they
were not signed by ten thousand vot-
| ers. Most everyone seemed, disposed
to bear his share of the burden rather
than to make the least effort to throw
it off. The investors" the twelve
per centers, and some tax receivers
made special effort to- prevent the
submission of the measures.
But why await the long deferred
and and uncertain action of legis-
1ature or constitutional convention?
Now is the accepted time; now is the
time for relief. The available and
practical. means of reform is by the
submission of good initiative measures
to the voters at the November elec-
tion. For the submission of suc',
measures Mr.. Stegner and few pub
lie spirited citizens should be able to
secure the signatures of ten thOus-
and voters during the month of July.
Petitions must be filed ninety days
before the election.
Mr.. Stegner wants to scrap, undo
or put on a different footing the bank
and state enterprises: It does seem
that under proper law, similar to
the Federal Res orve Act, it IS pos
sible to incorporate the Bank OF
North Dakota and any state enterprise
with union of public and private
capital and control and directors
chosen by the stockholders the same
as the directors of the Federal Re
serve Banks. Those banks maki
money for the Government as we'll as
for the stockholders. They are not
tainted with Socialism or public In
j fluences They pub ish daily report
of their doings. They do not love
darkness rather than light. In al
matters OF state, under any admins
tration, there is commonly too much
darkness. too much squandering o.
both time and money. BY all means
let us have some good initiative
measures for the November election
Let US go, back to the constitutions
system and levy no tax only on as
sessed valuations made 70 assure
ret annual profit Of six per Get.
