New York. Dec. There's yoou
gag gong around about certain
broadway theatrical figure who,
feeling i'll, went to a specialist.
Diabetes" soberly announced the
physician.
'Doctor, is that an acid or a liabi-
it,! ." joked the theatrical man.
Much has been written about the
mawki shnesS Of New Workers when
celebrities are about.
1t used to be that crowds would
gather at theater entrances, when
important opening night attractions
were under way, to cape at stage
notables and society women, to mar
vel at their clothes and to get a
closeup view. Tbs was more or less
fOrgivcable inasmuch as the Broad
way belt is cluttcrcd each night with
people who have little else to do but
wander about.
But this winter the situation ms ide
the thcaters has become acute. A
considerable portion Of first night
audiences not only refuse to take
their seats buc line along the rear of
the house to stare at each other
women in particular.
Recently an audience was not in
it's seats until nearly 90 minutes
after the rise of the curtain, al
though most of them were in the
house we'll before the curtain time.
SO you can tell the boys at podunk
Center not to be afraid to be seen
chewing straw or craning mecks~-~
it's quite the style in New York this
year.
No one would accuse Il subway sta
ton of being particularly romantic.
But now that it is either too cold
or rainy for park benches the sub
way bench seems to De popular with
spoOncrS.
The other night | noticed three
couples holding down benches in the
dank, ill-smeling, noisy subway sta
ton. They had paid their two nickcls
to get in and had settled down to,
spe'Ai the evening. Trains roared in
and out, crowds ebbcd and flowed
but this disturbed them not Il bit.
Girls who like moonlight with their
counting are advised to stay in Eing-
Vile Center.

STATE HIGHWAY
BODY HAS HEAVY
BRIDGE PROGRAM

Since August of this year, the State
Highway Commission has under taken
one Of the heaviest programs of
bridge building in its history. Plans
for II bridges have either been COM
rletcd or in the making by the bridge
division Of the Highway Department,
and at the same time, the cOnatruc-
ton Of two other large bridges has
been supervised. The cost of these
structures will run close to $1,000
10000 and include six large or ma
lor bridges and Ii smaller structures.
Up to the middle of Oct, the bridge
division consisted Of three men, but
owing TO the heavy amount of work
thrown on it this fail. has now been
increased to eight engineers and
draughtsmcn. The bridge conStr rue
ton about completed since the sum
mcr' are the rcmbina bridge across
the Red River between Pcmhina and
Vincent, Mimi, which cost approXi-
mately $lS2.5o0.D and the valley
city structure at about SGT 900 90. OF
the smaller bridges. plans have been
finished for five bridges i'm Stark
Founty on federal aid project No.
2Go=C. for four structures in Dunn
County as Il part Of prOj cct No 2GG- a
and four more bridges in Morton
County as part Of project No. ..G0-A
between Glenn Ullin and Hebron
Work has been begun on four larg-
CT projects which include the SHniS&
and Williston bridges, the new in
terstatc bridge between Fargo and
Moorhrad, and the Drs Lacs project.
Complete plans for the Wllliston and
Saniah bridges should be finished be-
fore the new year. Until the exact
site for the Fargo bridge is settled,
no work can be begun on the final
plans. though preliminary surveys
and plans for several sites have been
submitted.
Army Engineers Approve
Before the draughting Of the Will
liston and Sanish plans could be COM
menced, it was necessary first to
make soundings and do other pre-
limlnarv work as the Missouri river
is a difficult stream to bridge sue
cessfully and economically. AS it is
also navigable river under the jur-
isdiction of the War Department, it
was necessary to secure the approval
of the Army Engineers as to clear
ance SO as not to interfere with the
a very important matter from the
standpoint of economy of construct
ton. The Highway Department en-
gineers were very successful in their
negotiations and saved the State Il
very large sum of money by secur-
ing the approval of plan whereby
only one span of each bridge needed
to be high enough in order to allow
boats to pass under it. The Willis
ton project also was delayed pend |
ing decision by the Great Northern
Railway regarding the horizontal
clearance required between the piers
of the bridge span which crosses its
tracks, and which may entail rc-dc- |
signing this part of the structure. For
these reasons, it is probable that no
actual construction work can be COM
menced on these bridges until after
the spring rise, though contracts |
therefor will be awarded during the |
forepart of next year.

Donor to St.
James Church

Glass No. 3, st. James A. NJ. E.
Church, desires to state that Brother
Edmund NJ. Hill, 1873 University
Ave-, who has been suffering with
rheumatism all winter and confined
to his home, is improving.
This Christian brother is shining
light in st. James Church. 1t was
Brother Hill who asked Rev. J. c.
Anderson, then pastor Of st. James,
on one Sunday morning May have
the privilege of giving the first one
hundred dollars to the new st. James
Church building fund.-" This was
surprise to Rev. Anderson, and he
was stunned for a moment. He re-
piled to Brother Hill by saying "You
may IL you have the money" Broth
er Hill said, 1T may constrain others
to follow; I have the money in my
pocket" stepping up to the pulpit
and handing the one hundred dollars
to Rev. Anderson.
1t must be remembered that Broth
er Hill gave the first one hundred
dollars to the new st. James. and for
three years donated his automobile
services to the church, to take the
pastor and the stewardesses to serve
the Lords Supper to the sick in hos
pitfalls and homes. At that time you
could count the automobiles at st.
James on three fingers.

My dear Mrs. High:
We are sending you the fifty member
ship receipt books and literature that
you request.
On examination of the list of paid up
members you sent us and those who had
signed the petition we found that there
was only one or two members of the
branch. We have written pointing out
that the petition was not valid in that
there had been furnished proof that the
time and date of the meeting had been
properly advertised, and that the petit
TONERS not being paid up members of
the branch had no vote. Further, that
the president nominated was not paid
up member of the branch at the time of
nomination, and therefore not eligible
for nomination for Office.
! hope your drive may be a success.
Very sincerely yours,

SC|ENCE-DOCTOR
SAYS THEORY IS
WITHOUT PROOF
No One Born With Special Tai
ents or Genius, Doctor
Maintains.

New York, April 9.-Children invari-
ably are born without fear and without
any love sense. The child learns to love
its mother. She is a stranger to it at
first. No child is righthanded or left
handed at birth. There is no inheriting
of mental characteristics. There is no
such thing as being born with an inner
SELF or a baser nature" Those pos
sessions are acquired The so-called
human nature with which a person is
popularity supposed to be born-that
convenient excuse for making mistakes
is myth. AS newborn babe one
is totally free from it, Is not prone to
err"
Such are the interesting, indeed start
ling. conclusions reached by DR.. John B.
Watson, formerly professor of psy-
chology at Johns Hopkins university.
For 10 years at Baltimore, and at
Teachers college, Columbia, he has ex-
perimented with more than 1000 infant
children, performing work which, sci
ence hitherto has strangely neglected.
There is, DR.. Watson insists, no evil
dence TO support the determined belief
of most psychologists that man is born
with the instinct of fear( in the shapes it
commonly assumes), love, emulation and
rivalry, pugnacity anger, resentment,
sympathy, hunting, appropriation, ac-
quisitiveness, kleptomania, constructive
ness, play, curiosity, sociability, shyness,
cleanliness, modesty jealousy and par
entail love. (This is the famous list
compiled by William James.) All these,
it seems, are learned More concretely,
no one is born with such things as con-
sciousness, mental states or complexes,
will, imagination and all their compli
mentary sensations.
No one is born with special talents or
genius. Dr. Watson maintains. We do
not think with the mind alone, but with
the whole body, and especially with the
vocal cords. There is no scientific evil
dence available to prove that the white
infant is instinctively superior to the
black, yellow or brown infant Neither
is there any scientific evidence to sup
port the view that child born of Nor
die parents is instinctively superior at
birth to the Slav, Semitic or Latin
child.
