Will you kindly permit me to ev-
press through your columns the
thanks of the Roosevelt National
Park association for the donation Of
$4,000 by the Bismarck Association
OF Commerce in aid OF the proposed
Roosevelt park in the Bad Lands.
This contribution, together with
those from commercial bodies of
other cities, will carry the expense
of the inspection trip of Washing
ton officials and other distinguish ]
guests of this and surrounding
states next week, and meet other
very necessary expenses for the time
being. In this connection it is prop
er to mention the fact that the
North Dakota Automobile associa-
tion also contributed 5000 toward
the park trip as an evidence Of part
of the good work it hopes to accom-
plish for the state as a whole.

Act to permit anything actually in
toxicating is constitutional.
So Senator King advises the vets
to concentrate on "275 per cent
beer and wine," which he thinks
would pass the courts, and to work
for this, not as an entering wedge
toward something more, but as the
final goal.
This, remember, is the advice, not
of "dry," but of the very chief of
the "wets."
One is tempted to ask, first, why
the land wine? There is no such
thing as 2.75 per cent wine.
The land wine," in that phrase,
means exactly as much as land
main" in might and MAN." or
"stock" in "stock and stone"
Beer and wine" means "beer."
But, anyhow, it is we'll to get the
legal point clarified, on authority
that the vets will accept. Then the
practical question remains.
How many chemists would it take
to see that the "2.75 beer" was real
ly PTS? And wherein would the
places where that beer was sold
differ from saloons?
If the legal fog is cleared out of
the way, this is what is left.

-FABLEs ON HEALTH-
KEEP THE EYES CLEAN

Foreign substances often find
lodgment in the eyes, Mrs. Jones
learned.
The eye is one Of the most deli
cate organs of the body, and though
it is protected by eyeiashes and eye
lids and is placed under the protec-
ton Of the bones of the head, many
cases of blindness are caused from
purely accidental occurrences.
When there is a foreign substance
in the eye, do not rub. First try
raising the lid by taking hold of the
lashes, and let the tears wash the
particle out.

and deciding that truth paid best in
the end, never told another lie as

New York, June 12.-The "butter
and egg" man who comes out of the
west to spend his, money in night
clubs and make New York sit up and
take notice is generally a creature
Of fiction in, books and films, but
the other night in a cellar resort
saw one of the type in the flesh.
He was about IS, bald and fat and
wore a high standup collar and
square-toed vici kid shoes. H. sat
alone at table and applauded en-
Enthusiastically all the dances by the
cabaret performers. After the show
was over and dancing resumed / saw
four of the girl performers at his
table. He bought them sandwiches
at $3.50 each and drinks at a dollar
each. His check was for SIP, in

Joined the party. The old fellow
actually beamed as he paid the check
and the girls left him to dance with
their gentlemen friends.
These night cabarets in Easements
are about the most. uncomfortable
spots to be found these hot nights,
but they continue to be crowded to
capacity. l suppose many attend
them to be able to say they have
been to night club. Certain y
there is no great pleasure to be found
in them now. 4.
The proprietor of one night club
will not permit anyone not in eve.
ming clothes to enter his place. He
is always most formally dressed.
Yet several years ago he ran one of
the lowest dives in town and would
not permit anyone in formal dress
to come into his place because he
didn't want any high-hat slumme RS
disturbing his regular trade.
Most of the night clubs have host
esses who are paid $25 week and
percentage OF the checks paid by
men they entertain. Many of these
are being replaced by flappe&s who
receive no salary. Some of Their,
are paid commissions, but most of
them consider their work lark and
are willing to act as hostesses for
the fun OF it..

Rubbing the other eye sometimes
is effective.
If the substance is adhered to the
lid, turn the lid back by rolling it
over pencil or the finger and then
remove the particle with soft silk
handkerchief.
For particles of dust or cinders in
the eye try flaxseed, If other at
tempts fail. Two or three grains
should be placed in the corner of

fections brought by Jerome W.. Brad
ley, manager of a riding academy,
against Charles G. Forster, million
air, lumberman and father-in-law of
the plaintiff, was to be asked in cir
cult court by attorneys for the de-
PENDANT on the ground that Bradley
was contemplating trip to South
America and would not be in Milwau-
kee at the time the case goes to trial.
Attorneys for the plaintiff resisted
the motion and denied a claim that
Bradley was contemplating dropping
the case. Arguments will be heard
next week.
The suit is an outgrowth of the
marriage of Emily Forster, daughter
of the millionaire, to Bradley, a year
OF more ago. Bradley asserts that the
parents of the girl alienated her af-
fections.
Following the filing of the motion,
Circuit Judge Otto Breidenbach order

Trio Bum Ride in
Stolen Automobile
All Are Arrested When They Return
to Claim Their Car Stalled at
Roadside.

The story is being told at Wauke-
gan about three Waukegan men who
got into a mess of trouble that in
when they were stalled a. few days
ago just outside of Kenosha because
of fiat tire and gasoline tank that
failed them all at the same time.
The three, when double trouble
came to them, did the next best thing
and bummed ride as far as Wauke-
gan from a passing motorist. The
three men were William Woodward
Charles Webb and Richard Anderson.
At Waukegan they got out Anderson's
car and drove back to where the
stalled machine, owned by Webb, was
located, and towed it in. e.,
Next morning Kenosha police, with
the aid of Capt. Thomas Booth of
Waukegan, had all the men rounded
up and on their way to Kenosha. Here
they soon explained that the machine
they rode to Waukegan in was not
theirs, but the property of stranger
who had offered them a lift. They
were then told they had ridden in q
stolen machine. and all three we're re-
leased.
The trio was apprehended through
people who became suspicious, took the
license number of the stalled car, and
the number of the Anderson car when
it came to the relief, with the result
that these people reported to the po-
lice, who put two and two together,
and thought the Waukegan men of
fered the solution to the auto theft.

season was held Friday night, Nov

with victory for Wilmot Of II to 16
over Hebron.
The boys had to fight with all their
might to keep ahead of Hebron. He
Dron had fast team indeed. Their
boys were all larger than ours, but
their size didn't count for much. AS
Hebron has a strong team, it took d
great deal of hard fighting to beat
them. Both teams were equally
matched and this made the game even
more exciting. First one team made
basket, then the other. Wilmot kept
one point ahead until the end of the
third quarter when the score was a
| tie, 1912 Raymond 10th made the
free throw which gave Wilmot the vic
tory. It's the first time in years that
Wilmot has won from Hebron. Ex-
ceptional playing for Wilmot was
done by Eugene Frank, captain, and
LYLE McDorgall. Wonderful school
spirit was also shown. All the stu
dents turned out for the game. They
all cheered as much as they could,
thus encouraging the boys to fight
that much harder. The boys were
likewise encouraged by the large
crowd that attended
Two preliminary games preceded the
Wilmot- H ebron game. The first was
composed of Freshman and Sophomore
boys and was won 1872 by those from
Silver Lake. The second game was
between the alumni and the second
team. The alumni were victorious.
