Local builders now are looking
to individuality in their homes,
plus erection material that is stable
and most beneficial to the home
owner. OF the many factors that
have brought about greater eff.
cheney In the erection of homes,
concrete has played one of the
leading roles in the past few years.
Two cardinal reasons are given
by the Wire Concrete Foundation
Company for the selection Of con.
crete foundations over those made
OF brick. II IL pointed out that
concrete has responded to greater
strength tests than brick. Through
q series Of tests conducted by the
Bureau of Standards It was found
that concrete liz stronger and more
lasting than brick. The cost Of
erecting concrete foundations Is
much less than brick.
Builders throughout the city are
rapidly beginning to realize the ne.
cessity of concrete az an important
factor In the efficiency of home
erection. The Wire Concrete Foun.

BACK RATE FIGHT

In letter to the Mandan Com
mercial CLUB dated, Duluth, May 9Th.
the Chamber of Commerce in tina,
city asks the support Of the Com
mercial club in case filed by the
Chamber of Commerce of Duluth
against the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway Company ct al, docket
15S823.
The complaint concerns the ship
pers of butter, eggs, and dressed
poultry in North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Nebraska and Minnesota. The
cruX of the complaint is that the
rate structure is at present aimed
at forcing butter and eggs through
Chicago, and by so doing deprives
the producers of these commodities
located in the above mentioned
states, of the advantages that their
close proximity to water should at
ford.
1t is the intention of the Duluth
Chamber of Commerce to prosecute
the case on a theory that the pres
ent rates on butter, eggs, and dress
ed poultry from the above mentioned
territory to Chicago are fully COM
pensatory and even high.

TWIN WICKED
CITIES LIE
UNDER REDSEA

st. Louis, May 9.-Evidence Of the
existence of Canaanite >civilization
of the early bronze age, dating about
the twentieth century b. c., has been
found by the Xenia expendition in
a tour Of the Dead Sea region Of
Palestine, Dr. Melvin G.. Kyle, head
| of the party, said in a letter received
here.
DR.. Kyle, who is president of .Xenia
Seminary here, declared his explora-
tons also had tended to confirm the
judgment of earlier Investigators
that the two cities of Sodom and
Gomorrah, which, according to Bibli-
cal accounts were destroyed by fire
and birthstone, are buried beneath
the Dead Sea beyond the power of
men to discover them.
Pottery found in the graves open
ed by Arab treasure hunters in the
region, DR.. Kyle's letter said, shows
conclusivcly the existence of the ear
ly Canaanite civilization. He char
acterized it as a "pre Moabite civili-
zaton," pointing out that LOT was
the father of Moab
This is necessary first link in
the evidence we DESIRE the letter
continued, "for the Bible represents
just such a civilization as being
here in the days of Sodom and
Gomorrah. Moreover, there follows
just here one of tpse expressive
silences in Bible history.
THE destruction Of the Cities of
the Plain put out that civilization as
suddenly and complete as one snuffs
out candle. Never again is any
mention made or hint given or i'm
piled of civilization in this plain
after the Lord destroyed Sodom and
Gomorrah. This is exactly what our
researches have revealed. Thus,
what seemed only negative evidence
becomes positive evidence on the
subject. The next civilization that
appears is Byzantine, which comes
more than 1000 years later"
Although suggestions have been
made that divers be sent down into
the Dead Sea to recover something
from the two cities beneath its sur
face, Dr.. Kyle scouts the idea, de-
claring the rushing waters of small
rivers have brought down alluvial de-
posts that have been filling the bot
tom of the sea, making the work of
divers exceedingly difficult, if not
impossible.

Billy Evans Says

Do the duties of managing maj or
league club take something out of
the player!
Major league bench managers are
convinced that the directing of a
big league team is job in itself.
They seem to be a unit IN the be-
lief that the star player. unless he
is a decided exception to the rule,
Will slump in his work as a result of
big league managerial duties.
"The mental side of managing a
major league club takes far more out
o. the player manager than the ply
steal end Of it, remarked famous
bench manager to me recently in dis
cussing the question.
THE leader of big league ball
club has much to worry about from
the time the season opens until it
closes. Playing, in addition to man
aging. is a task few are equal to.
ASIDE from directing the play on
the club, the manager must prom OF c
harmony, engender the old fighting
spirit, maintain discipline and yet be
able to have all his players pulling
for him. Quite job.
"He must do these things if he is
to be successful.s
1t is almost obvious, that the
bench manager is in much better
position to do such things than the
rlayer-leader, who must not only
direct but also deliver.
