DON'T CHANGE IT

North Dakota club women are
being urged by Mrs. John Wishek
OF Ashley, N. D.. chairman of the
department of history of the North
Dakota Federation OF Women's
ciubs, to start some propaganda for
the changing of the name OF the
BAD Lands" TO more appropriate
name.
Mrs Wishek believes that the
name bad lands" Is a misnomer
and suggests that this strangely
weird and beautiful spot be cali
ed The Wonderland of North Da-
kota. "--News-Dispatch. >
And they might also appropri-
ately be called the Highlands of
North Dakota"
Perhaps they were misnamed by
the early French explorers who
termed them as bad Lands to
Travel Over" However, with the
passing years the name has been
given a new significance and IL
cannot really be changed.
over the nation the name bad
Lands" is nearly as well known as
the name, North Dakota" In
stead of changing the name an eff.
fort should be made to have it
copyrighted and take full advant-
age Of its advertising value.
The name bad Lands" is dis
tinctive - different. 1t is name
which intrigues the interest and
inspires the Imagination. Mention
or the name calls to mind historic
events which carnot be disassoci-
ated and romantic memories which

actly what the situation is. What
is the total Indebtedness of the
farmers ,of North Dakota? How
many have left the State, because
OF inability to, stay on their lando
How many good crops will be ne
cessary to get things in working
order? SONG of these questions
should have been put, and proba-
bly, u week should have been given
to the work in North Dakota alone.
However, some good may come
out OF the VISIT, because 1t serves
to emphasize the fact that the
farmer himself is the solution He
must work out the, problem with
his face to the front and with his
faith strong. Corn is selling over

has been made for the better.

WHY PAVENENTS ''EXPLODE"
UNDER EXCESSIVE HEAT

Under the terrific heat that has pre-
vailed generally during the last few
weeks, certain types of pavements
have been exploding" with uncOm-
Portable frequency, throwing huge
slabs of concrete and paving blocks
high in the air and often endangering
lives of pedestrians and motorists.
This phenomenon is rare enough to
make an explanation interesting, and
a remedy worth while, the latter from
a safety standpoint alone, to say moth
ing of public economy.
1t is only the "rigid" type of pave
ment that "eXplodes." Rigid types are
limited to concrete pavements and to
block pavements in which the inter-
stices between the blocks are filed
with what is know mas cement grout.
The grout clings to the blocks and
sets up even harder than concrete,
and the result is a slab just as rigid
as a plain concrete pavement.
In these types of pavements there
is little or no room for expansion, that
irresistible force brought about by in
tense heat. Even where expansion
joints are provided at intervals, rigid
pavements have been known to elbow
up" The heat expands the rigid slab.
In those cases where expansion is not
held in compression, there is only
one direction in which this force can
expend itself, and that is upward.
Pedestrians or motorists in the i'm
vicinity are in more or less
danger.
This is one of the reasons why en-
gineers are more and more specifying
flexible instead of rigid surfaces. In
brick or stone block surfaces this is
brought about by the use of asphalt
between the units. This bituminous
material absorbs expansion and per-
mits contraction without "explos-
ions" or cracked and crumbled sur
faces. Such engineering design also al
lows for the upward thrust of a freez-
ing sub-grade and for the continuous
swelling and shrinking of the earth's
surface under the influence of mois-
ture and drought.

ALL WHO HAVE NOT PAID
viii Be Taken to Court Unless They
Pay Before September Term Opens.
Half of the 1O6 Have Settled.

Plans are being made by the officials
of Sussex county, to set the legal ma
chinery running in an effort to col
lect the filing fee, or income tax,
from those who were indicted on June
25 and have refused to pay. Out Of the
one hundred and six indictments pre-
sented to the grand jury by Attorney
General Sylvester D. Townsend, Jr.,
and County Deputy Attorney General
Robert G.. Houston at the last term Of
court, fifty have failed to come for
ward and pay the tax to the State Tax
Department. Last Monday the first
step to collect the tax was made by
Clerk Of the Peace William j. Quill
len, who has issued capias in 'each
case, returnable forthwith, to Sheriff
James H. Phillips, who is expected to
start serving the writs at once.
The original tax was $500, but with
the costs added it will now amount to
S16.98, which must be paid at once, or
approved security given in the sum of
$100 for the next term of court.
Sheriff Phillips will arrest each per
son for whom a capias is issued and
carry them before the officials of the
State Tax Department, now maintain
ing headquarters in the building for
merly used by the First National Bank
in Georgetown. Upon refusal to pay
the officials, they will then be carried
before Clerk of the Peace William j.
Quillen to give bond, with such Sc
curity as he may demand, for the Oc-
tober term of General Sessions Court.
If the tax remains unpaid by the
time set for the convening of court,
tLey will be tried under the statute
made to cover such cases; and, If
found guilty, placed in prison until
such time as the tax is paid. The off,
cials are determined to carry out the
law to letter ,and it is believed that
nearly all will pay before the next
term of court.
