Brushes That Bloom i'm the
Spring, Tra-la z:
BY Mrs Christine Frederick,
The Distinguished Authority on Household Efficiency

rect and by such tools as will both
get into, and also brush out, the
dust.
Here is where we can have much
use for, the many kinds of brushes
that bloom in the Spring even on
the sometimes dark counters of
basement furnishing departments.
For while the old badge of clean
ing servitude used to be a bunch
of rags torn from discarded under
wear, the advantages of brushes
over rags need scarcely be pointed
out; brushes are firm and their
bristles penetrating where rags"
are soft, yielding and even slimsy;
brushes mounted on a firm handle
give purchase" and power to the
cleaning stroke; brushes keep the
, hands clean and away from the ac-
tual soil, as compared with a cloth
or rags" held in the hand; last,
brushes may be easily washed,
dried and made sanitary to repeat
their cleaning work.
Where does dust lodge? Not
only on the smooth, horizontal,
flat surface so easy to "write ones
name on" or to wipe off with
cloth, but rather in the unseen
crevices above the door, the win
dow, behind the pictures, or be-
tween the stair ratings. Begin

the seaside at my own expense to

this. 1t was, | consider, an ordi-

account of the sequel. A friend
of Lord Cathcart's met this girl in
Hyde Park one day a little time
after my divorce, and my name
naturally cropped up.
"Of course, one cant possibly

ton she has created for herself"
said the girl whose own reputation

Lord Cathcart met this girl
later, and when she made an al
most similar remark he replied:
"Oh, | thought you were q
friend of Vera's, but | see am
mistaken"
Then he walked away and left
her.
While he was old-fashioned in
his ideas in many ways, Lord
Cathcart had no sympathy with the
barbarous English practice that
formerly prevailed of separating
women who had been divorced
from their children. He was al

her with Lord Cathcart. The

FUND FOR BRITISH
MINERS IS SOUGHT
A. F. of L. Calls Upon Men,
berS to Contribute to
Extent of Ability.

Asserting that suffering among
miners families in Great Britain is
intense as the result of the strike,
President William Green of the' Ameri-
can Federation of Labor today issued
a second appeal to organized labor OF
this country to contribute to the limit
of its ability to alleviate conditions.
The appeal was issued over the sig
natures Of President Green and Secre-
tary Morrison at the direction of the
executive council. 1t is addressed to
the officers and, members of all ma
tional and International unions, State
sederations of labor. city central
codes and local unions.
This strike of the miners in Great
Britain" the statement said, has
reached the point where suffering
among miners families is intense.
The industrial struggle has been car
ried on week after week until hunger
and distress are being keenly felt.
The miners are resisting a reduction
in the meager wages they heretofore
were receiving. They are heroically
fighting against a lowering of their
living standards.
The executive council. therefore. in
transmitting this supplementary APP
peal is repeating the message of the
delegation sent TO America by the
British Trades Union Congress and
the Miners Federation of Great Brit
ain. We earnestly and sincerely
urge you TO make such voluntary con-
tributions fas circumstances will per-
init. Give to the limit of your ability.
Send in your money Immediately. Do
not delay. Let the sympathetic and
generous heart of the organized labor
movement in America respond quickly
to the appeal which the hungry men,
women and children who are the suf-
ferers in the miners strike make
to us.

Editorial Comment
A Law Based on Sound Reason
(St. Cloud. Mimi, Journal Press)

(St Cloud Mimi, Journal Press)
Somebody asked the Hibbing News: why is
automobile money turned into the state instead of
over to the county in which it is paid?" To which
the News replies that it is because Of the law and
then, hands out this unconsidered and ill-advsed
bit of decision: ''Therc really isn't any good
reason"
| The reason is-and it is mighty sound one
that pooling money in the trunk highway fund
builds roads that start somewhere and keep on
going.
! 1t is Ahc backbone Of the trunk highway system.
Divide the money into 81 separate funds, and there
Will be just patchwork system, dab here and
dab there, and no continuous plan.
Dividing the money among the counties would
abolish the trunk highway system that has xlone
more toward lifting Minnesota out Of the mud AM,
ruts in ten years than was done in the fifty years
previous; and has accomplished it with much less
money than is spent year by year by the towns
and counties.
Another reason is that, il divided among the
counties, Henncpin, st. Louis and Ramsey would
get about 40 per cent of the whole fund, and the
poorer counties would have small an amount that
mo constructive work would have been done. Under
such plan paving from the Twin Cities in any
direction outside Hennepin and Ramsey would have
been impossible. Certainly counties like Anoka,
Sherburne, Benton, Morrison, Grow Wing, Chisago,
Pine and Carlton would not have been able to fin
paved roads which of direct benefit to all
the people Of this and several other states Neither
would Stearns county the fourth wealthiest in the
state, have built a paved highway from St. Cloud
to Sank Center.
Under the trunk plan the three big cities get
none of the auto license money, because the lcgs-
lature in its wisdom the necessity of providing
paved roads where there is the heaviest traffic,
making it continuous system.
St Louis county, by the way, has no complaint
Its commissioners were clever enough to have seen
what was coming and issued some millions in bonds,
and got its paved highways ahead of most other
counties. and these bonds are being paid from the
state fund.-
If the next session Of the legislature has the good
judgment to adopt the recommendations of Com
missioner Babcock, Minnesota will have many more
miles Of paved highway, in the next two or three
years. 1t will tidy sum in the reduced cost
of maintenance over the interest on bonds The
present generation will have the benefit of better
roads that will be direct saving to every motor
vehicle owner, and by putting the gasoline tax ir
sinking fund, all the county and state bonds will
be paid off within 20 or % years.
We shall have the roads when you are alive to
use them and it will cost man cent more than
If we do not get them.
Why not have them?

Bring Tourists Here
Fargo Forum)


The Greater North Dakota Association has un.
dertaken campaign to bring tourists into the
State during the summer months. This is one OF
the most important features of its program of de-
velopment, for it will do as much as ANYTHING to
reveal to people outside the State the many re-
sources and advantages for building businesses
and homes in the commonwealth.
From the strictly sightseeing and outing stand
point, North Dakota has much to offer as any
other Northwest State. There are no thousands Of
lakes and farreachng forests, no National parks
and mountain ranges, but it has beauty spots un
surpassed anywhere and many places for enjoying
health giving vacation.
There arc the Bad Lands, for instance Nowhere
in America can the tourist find a more golden his
torlcal background, place of such marvellous
beauty and opportunities for exploring a country
that still has not been kissed by the civilization
that insists upon all modern improvements and con-
veniences. One can ride the grass covered
trails that Theodore Roosevelt once rode seeing the
while great vistas of color and varying horizon
and feeling some Of the thrill Of romance. and ad-
venture that were the pioneers of the cattle days.
One can ford the Missouri river at Peaceful Valley
ranch and so into the greatest pctrificd forest in
the world and see there the wonders that Nature
wrought with trees that grew large as Cali.
fornia's redwoods 100000 and 10000 years
ago. One can go down into the southern part down
to the old logging camps with its cedars still grow
ing IN great numbers and visit the huge burning
coal mine, one of the most awc-nsprjng sights
imaginable. Here, one see the great sculptor,
Nature hewing out the gigantic and fantastic buttes
topped with their scoria. One can visit with
the picturesque characters of the ycsteryears when
Marquis de Mores and Theodore Roosevelt were the
great figures of that section, and hear stories Of
those two men that excel any novel Of adventure for
here one comes face to face with truth and reality
and the men who helped make history.
INC unfortunate part Of recommending the Bad
Lands to the many tourists who come to the State
IS that SO many, many North Dakota people do not
Know what they are. The States own people have
neglected them, going elsewhere for their outings
But this is being changed, thanks to the Roosevelt
National Park Association, which is seeking to have
that district designated as a National playground
and the Greater North Dakota Association
That y not the only section for the tourist how
ever There are the Turtle Mountains, the Pembins
Mountains, and, here and there beautiful lake that
has become something more than body Of water
It Is web, therefore, to call attention to these
beauty and historic spots Countless tourists would
visit them Il they knew what they WERE The Great.

Here's a Fad For You

An original expression Of whims and fancies, ia
vorcd and initiated by the multitude. is generally
known as a fad. Popular fads are always in de-
mand In this country. and the originator is usually
gforified through publicity agencies.
fad has no excuse for being, except perhaps,
that it offers a change from the commonplace Like
most changes which are accepted only because they
are different and not because they are important
or necessary the fad itself soon becomes common
place and is discarded.
The two Monongahela (Pa.) school girls who at
: tempted to start fad by appearing at class with
the hair side of their head slicked down and
Oh the other fluffed and wearing studded dog col
lars around their necks soon learned that not all
fads live to ripe old age because Of or in spite Of
their freakishncss.
The fad of appearing and being natural seems to
have become commonplace quite long time ago.
Until this fad is revived, dog collars, slave brace
let's and maybe horse collars will have their chance
at center stage.
