LAST FREE MOVIES
AND BAND CONCERT
Will be Held Wednesday Eve
ming, Aug. Is, at s O'clock,
in the AskOv Park.

"The Stream of Life" is a picture
of real life.
Philip Maynard, born to simple
country life, is fortunate: his parents
bring him up with the proper sense
of his duty to others and love and
reverence for truth and religion.
Philip is happy in the district school;
happier alone with his line in the
quiet pool; happiest when the sum
light in soft radiance falls upon him
and his boyhood sweetheart. One
day, resting his elbow on the pillow
handle, he has a vision of great
city with it's fame and fortune. Philip
leaves the farm with the blessing OF
his parents and of his pastor and
with a leather-bound volume of Holy
Writ inscribed: ''To Philip from his
mother"
In the city he is compelled to begin
at the bottom but he rises rapidly.
Success is his but the price is great.
Rich, happily married, courted by
society, he drifts into unbelief. With
out warning the beautiful only daugh-
ter dies. Philips mother had taught
the little girl the beauty of things
sacred, but her spiritual consolation
of her parents avai1s naught. OPP
pressed with grief the mother wan
ders into an Uncovered chapel; here
she beholds a wonderful vision OF
the consoling Christ. In lonely
night vigil Philip, too, has a vision
and sees the Eternal Comforter.
Full and placid the stream of life
flows slowly on. Philip, an old man,
lies awaiting the final summons
Before his faded eyes mother and
wife come back as visions. The
daughter appears with sweet smile
and reckoning hands. The two en-
bark on the mighty ocean leading
to the Great Beyond; they glide over
the calm and shining waters and
disappear in the, purple haze OF the
setting sun.

Illinois Court decision is of more
than passing Importance.
Few people realize the magnitude
of the legislative struggle for changes
in the banking law. 1t is said that
the defeat of this bill at the last
session of Congress was due to the
expensive lobby maintained in Wash
ington by bankers organizations. The
record shows that the Senate and
House could not agree in the terms
of the bill. The struggle will be re-
newed in December.
The Department of Labor and other
branches of the Government are
watching with interest the activities
of railroad labor organizations. 1t
is said that the unions are proposing
another demand for higher wages
based upon the fact that the railroads
enjoyed an unusually prosperous
year. 1t is also stated that the Amer.
lean Federation of Labor is warning
against any drastic action. The pos
sibilities of the transportation tie-up
are always given due consideration by
Federal Government, because of its
far-reaching effects.
The State Department is very busy
these days with diplomatic exchanges
The Mexican situation calls for states
manship of the highest quality, be-
cause of its political dynamite con-
tanned in religious controversies. II
is generally believed that the admin
istration will not interfere as re.
quested by various groups.
The political organizations are pre-.
pairing anoter fall campaign Already
the Speakers Bureaus of the majority
parties are in operation with the con.
centrating drive in the farm regions
| Republicans will recite their version
of their parties achievements while
the other parties will criticize the
alleged shortcomings of the party
in power. The extension of the radio
has cut down the public interest in
political speakers, but personal ap
pearanees are still demanded in many
localities where the contest between
the various parties is particularly
bitter.

ASKOV 6-BEROUN 1

Askov added another scalp to it's
belt Sunday when the Beroun team
got the short end of a to 1 score,
the game being played at Beroun. If
Askov wins the remainder of its
games-three-their standing in the
Pine County League will then be tied
with Sandstone and in that event the
final contest for supremacy will sure
ly be an interesting one. The Askov
boys are out to gain first place and
cop the flag and are surely working
hard for it.

BANKER MUST
HELP FARMER,
FARRELL SAYS
President Of Kansas Agricul-
ture College Talks to Da-
kOta Financiers

Grand Forks, y. d., June %. P'
The banker and the farmer IN an
agricultural region like North Da-
kota have 50 much in common that
they must sink or swim together,
DR.. L. y. Farrell. president OF the
Kansas Agriculture college, toi. the
North Dakota Bankers ssoc!ation
in session here today.
'In agriculture as In manu- actur-
ing INDUSTRIES he said. ''onc OF the
most hopeful ways of increasing
profits is by decreasing production
costs
Bankers may be helpful 10 farm
crs in reducing their production costs
By assisting them in securing good
seed. in arranging for the treatment
of seed to prevent smut, in securing
farm machinery which will DO salts
factory work. and N many oihcr
ways.
Many Ways of Helping
Bankers can help. and they often
do help. in getting farmer started
in the direction that will be best
for him, and in financing the farm
operations decided upon.
Bankers can help agriculture by
working for less expensive methods
of distribution, whether through low
or transportation costs. or by any
other method which will produce re
suits. Standardization Of quality al
so is an important factor in the cost
Of distribution.
"Ame rican. farmers lose millions
Of dollars every year by investing In
fake schemes of various kinds. Some
times the banker. who should be the
farmers friend, helps innoccntly or
otherwise to ,ictimizc the farmer by
lending the moral and financial sup
port of the bank to promoters.
"The boat that contains the Amer
lean banker and tho American farm,
or is not going to sink if the better
class of bankers viii work with the
better class of farmers in keeping It
afloat. If the bankers Of North pa
kota will learn all they can Of the
fundamentals Of good farming IN
their respective communities, ana
then be actively friendly TO that KIND
of farming they viii render great
service TO the other man in the boat,
