ADJUSTMENTS
FLOWER Of THE
NORTH" COMING To
COLUMBIA TODAY

Today is the first for the screen
ing of James Oliver Curwood's
Flower of the North" at Mauks
Columbia theater. 1t holds as the
feature attraction today. Friday and
Saturday. Leading roles have been
entrusted to Henry B. Walthall and
Pauline Starke.
The glamor and refreshing atmos-
phere of the James oliver Curwood
stories are known to millions but the
injection into this story of the char
acter portrayal of a Walthall and the
appeal OF Pauline Starke have
strengthened many-fold the natural
grip of this typical Curwood creation.
"The Flower of the North" like all
big Curwood features, is story OF
the Canadian Northwest, the land of
scenic grandeur where "a mans a
man for a. that"
Henry B. Walthalps characterize
tion in this production is said by
critics to be his best since his por-

to attain their end of running him.
In the midst of this turmoil and
struggle he meets Jeanne DArcam-
bal, a descendant of the old cavaliers
of France. Her fortunes and his be-
come inextricably interviewer. In the
end it is her courage as much as his
which saves them both. The story
is replete with thrills. Night charges
of the enraged redskins. Indian fights,
the heroine shooting down rapids in
a paddleless canoe, the hero Drawing
the dangers of the current to- res
cue the girl and exciting combats
make the picture one of the most
spectacular of all Curwood offerings.

North Dakota Tax Record
Puzzles Income Experts;
No One Made Over $4,000
Have About Reached the Conclusion That State
Controlled State Is Cause of Reduced Incomes Although
Most Western States Record No Great Incomes Oklahoma
Fails to Rank With Other States in Large Incomes.

WASHINGTON -- The sovereign
state Of North Dakota, birthplace Of
the nonpartisan league and the
great testing pit for political cx-
per. mcnts along economic lines, has
unique distinction among the As
states of the union.
IL is the only one Of the as which
IN 1918 and 1919, the last two years
for which records are available, did
not have a citizen who paid sur
taxes on an income in excess OF
$4,000. Nobody In the state had
an income this large, even with
wheat selling at wartime prices. II
appears that North Dakota Is pop
ulatcd by real "dirt farmers
Government economists have been
puzzlinE their heads over it, but as
yet they have reached no conclu-
slons as TO the why ana wherefore
OF this state OF affairs unless It be
that the statc-contrOlied banks and
the statc-controlled clcvaors and
state-controlled other things have
kept down large profits and en-
forced n more standardized distrl-
button all the way round.
Large Incomes Few IN west
Absence Of great incomes is con-
hplCuOuB IN All western states lNhl
are devoted almost entirely TO agri-
culture, as is North Dakota, but all
around, In sister states, where eX-
pericnce with state control is lack
ing or not so far advanced, there
have been at least a few taxable
Incomes OF more than $4,000.
In South Dakota, for instance,
there were two men who in both
years paid taxes on incomes In ex-
cess Of $4,000. In Idaho there
were two In 1918 and three In 1919.
Nevada almost cquallod the record
OF North Dakota, as there was only
one man so caught in 1919 and none
at all In 1918. New Mexico had
four in 1918 and only one IA 1919.
IL Is in the great manufacturing
and Industrial 81 tes Of tho east that
are found the large taxable incomes
To what extent this is true Is
readily seen by the official fact that

by persons living east OF the Alle-
