imagine any kidnapping in real life
more widespread in its consequences.
Usually kidnapping ends with the
death of the child or payment of
money for its recovery. In The Sign
of the Rose . the recovery of the
little girl is only the beginning of
an even more dramatic sequence Of
events To what extent punishment
is meted out to the kidnapper is ap-
preciated better on the screen than
on the printed page.

VITAL NEED OF NORTHWEsT

The most vital need OF the North
west today is better transportation
facilities. We could, it is true. pro-
duce the necessities of life. and some
comforts, for millions of people
without trading with the outside
world But the wise, profitable and
business-like thing to do is TO pro-
duce the things for which our soil,
climate and resources are best
suited. and to exchange them for
things which are produced more
easily elsewhere.
The Northwest specializes is es-
aentials: bread, butter. beef, pork,
lumber, iron. We can multiply our
production as the demand grows.
Our market is limited only by the
trensportc lion facilities and freight
rates. Our farmers do business on
q small margin of profit An increase
OF a few cents on a bushel in freight
rates on grain may wipe ont these
profits. Congestion in Eastern ter
minals, resulting in car shortage, has
Tine and again resulted in immense
losses to farmers. Last fall our
wheat could not be shipped because
the elevators here were full; boats
on the lakes could not be unloaded

PROGRESS a.D PEACE

The whole country knows that the
Great Lakes st. Lawrence waterway
is the greatest project now in the
minds OF the people and would be
one OF the greatest blessings to the
farmers If put into actual practice.
It would mean the saving of from
eight to twelve cents per bushel on
freight charges to the farmers of the
northwe which in itself Is worth
while.
In a nutshell the west wants the
way to the sea. The st. Lawrence
is the most feasible route. New York
and New England need st. Lawrence
power. Tho development is subordi'
nate to the paramount rights Of navi'
CATION. The concurrence Of Canada
is necessary condition. Progress

can be made on the basis of mutua
understanding.
And last but not least, the farmer.

will furnish them transportation al

and at the same time save tC
them hundreds of millions of dollar
Congress should get busy on that

One doesn't forgive and forget, but
he gets tired of thinking about it.
In any business q bad rule comes to
be ignored or It breaks the business.
Most people are afraid to speak as
correct English as they know how to-.
If a man has no trials and tribula-
lions he is unable TO appreciate hap
piness.
Sometimes a mans back seems TO
be as self-conscious as his counte-
nance.
Some people are noted for their
ability to recollect things that never
happened.
If the face of a small boy has a set
look it's sign that mischief is about
to be Matched.
Experts are as jealous of their au-
thority as kings were Of their royal
prerogatives.
Probably when we have established
communication with Mars We shall
wish we hadn't.

weak tire knows there isn't a shady
