ARCTIC MARRIAGES
 ARE CAUSE TROUBLE

EDMONTON, June 27-The custom somewhat prevalent in the Arctic of woman having two husbands, fol- lowed by the murder of one man by the other, will take Jude Debuc of the Alberta courts into the Arctic Cir cle again this summer, repeating his experience of 1923, when he held the first court of it's kind at the Herschel Island police post.
 Judge Debuc and the judicial party will leave Edmonton some time in July. The story is simple one.
 1kalukpiak, the accused, is to be tried for the murder of Havougach, the husband of Khattis. For three years Ikalukpiak lived with Khattis and Havougach, and it is altogether probable that following a custom pre- valent among these primitive people, the two men shared Khattis as a com- mon wife

THE COMMON ENEMY
WHAT ADVERTISING DOES

America has the best life on this
earth because It has the best adver-
tised life, says Colonel w. G. Edens
of the Public Relations Commission,
American Bankers Association. He
goes on: American health ls the hest
IL the world because American peo-
pie are best informed in the ways and
habits OF Lcaith, largely through ad-
vertising American business is the
largest and most successful in the
world because 1t uses advertising the
most American business men enlarge
their business institutions in proper
tion as they advertise them. Amerl-
can buyers become more shrewd in
spending their money in proportion
as they read advertisements.
THE press of the United ST. - Is
regarded by many as the most power.
full Of our institutions. 1t must be
numbered with the schools and the
churches as one Of the trinity of most
powerful creators of knowledge AMI
patriotism
Advertising Is what 1t is today
largely because Of the power and sue.
cess of the daily paper. Nevertheless,
ii is true that the daily paper is as
successful as it is today because OF
advertising.
THE banking business has been ben.
Gifted largely by advertising within
the last dozen or fifteen years. Bank.
ing institutions have done more ad-
vertisng than ever before. They have
installed advertising departments
which acquaint their communities
with facts formerly regarded in the
light of institutional secrets. The
banker publishes facts which build up
confidence In his institution.
"The result has been that millions
of people who formerly would not
place their money in the care Of bank
ers, but who boarded II at home, en-.
trusted It to friends, or invested It in
wildcat speculatlons, now regard the
bank as the safest place in the world.
Hundreds OF millions Of dollars have
been brought from their hidlng places
and placed in circulation, much 10 the
advance of America and American in
stitutions, as well as American busi-
ness. Newspaper advertising has
done more for American banks in the
tast dozen years than any other single
agency"

servative way the economic increase
In the productiveness of the soils OF

crop production may be secured.
Small unit yields Of necessity are
expensive while moderate to large

ally will be more Profitable and when
handled properly will not lead TO an
reproduction.

for feeding the family and livestock Of

the requisite kinds and amounts OF
livestock best to meet the economic
needs OF farming.
"a. To formulate and put in motion
definite plans for carrying ut this
program, It is urged that the Agri-
cultural College of the District put

that a bankerfarmer conference be
called to meet early in the fall at the
agricultural college of each State"
