Saluting Ban Johnson as He Goes
(Minneapolis Tribune)

Let it be conceded that Ban johnson was the
stormy petrol" Of league baseball after Kene-
saw Mountain Lands got into the sport as gen.
eralissimo and field marshal. Let it be con-
coded that he was man of iron will who
liked to have his own way, and usually had It
Until the one-time judge who has will of
his own began to do something in the way Of
earning his spacious salary.
This said, it remains to his eternal credit
that the American people are deeply indebted
to Ban Johnson for what baseball is today.
He went into league leadership more than !
quarter of a century ago determined to do
what he could to make baseball deserve the
respect OF lovers of outdoor sport. He was
against rowdyism. He was for straight, hon.
estly contested playing. He enforced discipline
and he saw to it that umpires were not to be
brow-beaten or lightly considered by players.
What Johnson preached, that he practiced,
and he was consistent in the practice of it
throughout his long career in the game. A
man of less sincerity of purpose could not have
held his job in the American league for p
years, and particularly man who, by his sheer
forcefulness and determination, accumulated
many enemies. Through stress and storm he
stuck to his guns and held to his Standards
He accepted courageously the challenge from
the older league camp in the days when the
American league was still an infant industry
He did not lower the flag of johnson purpose
then or at any time thereafter.
Johnson did not preen himself as moral
purist, but he was dead against the making
Of ball fields base Of operations for gamblers
He wished the sport to be on such level of de-
cency and order that any man or woman, what
ever his or her scruples, might attend the
games without twinge of conscience Um-
pires of the league were chosen with regard to
all factors of fitness, and spectators were
given to understand that umpires were not to
be maltreated or inundated.
Such is the man who has laid down the reins
by resignation. Such is the man who, still
assured of the rightness Of his policy, issues
an ACCOMPLISHMENT that whoever succeeds him
as president Of the American league must also
rule with an iron hand under penalty of in
different success or even failure Ban john
son went out Of office with head unbowed.
His conscience will continue to be his friend.
He was front-line shock-trooper whose serv-
ice was never compromised by faltering or re-
treat. He deserves tribute from the enemies
he has made as well as from his friends. Had1
it not been for the fight he made the Junior
league might have persisted in its infcncv. En-
try and exit, Ban was the car, but behind his
imperious way was devotion to q creed Of which
he may well be proud the rest Of his life.

Editorial Comment
CURLING Reckless Drivers
Barron. Wis. NeWs-ShieldN


Wisconsin's new law requiring automobile
drivers to have license will have great eff.
feet in wedding reckless, incompetent and Grim
nal automobile drivers off our highways.
drivers license may be revoked, if he is con-
yicted Of driving while intoxicated, or for con
viction on a charge of operating a motor We
hicle in a manner showing negligence or reck-
less disregard of human life. If he leaves the
scene of accident after having injured any
person without giving his name and address
to the proper authorities, his license may be re.
voked He may also lose his license if he be,
comes mentally or physically incompetent to
operate car.
The auto is now necessity to everyone who
drives one, and every driver will think twice
before taking chances, when he knows that he
runs the risk of having his drivers license re-
voked that is, every sane driver WILL The
road hogs will mott isn't in them. In Cali
fornia Al drivers had their licenses Cancelled in
two months for various offenses, and the re.
suit is that automobile accidents are decreas-
ing rapidly there

Fact Finding or Fault Finding?

Public opinion on the controversy over the
, Fact Finding" report must in all fairness
await the report Of Governor Sorlie's investi
cation as we'll as the consideration of the leg
stature which is to be called in special session
, soon. Often fact finding reports turn out to
,, oe merely fault finding reports inspired by
disappointed office seekers and lame duck poll
ticians. In the meantime, Governor Sorlie is
attending strictly to his knitting.
In Minneapolis recently, before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, he put in some
constructive work in behalf Of the farmers OF
this state. 1t is easy to throw monkey
wrenches into the machinery, but it takes 4
sense Of duty and also sense of obligation,
to all the people of the state to fight the kind
Of battle for more favorable grain rates as
step to better marketing conditions which
Governor Sorlie is now conducting
More power to him in this controversy

BY RODNEY BUTCHER

Washington. Oct. 27.-If you like
that sort of thing, you can move to
Washington and easily rub elbows
with the great.
Just the other day, for instance,
crowded street car nosed down
Connecticut avenue bearing such
figures as Senator Borah, former
Senator Pomerene, and your cor
respondent. Pomerene, doubt
less with his mind on his prosecu-
ton of Fall and Sinclair in the
latest oil trial, chung to the rail
on the rear platform. Borah had
grabbed a brass seat-handle amid
ships. Borah is the most
prominent of local strap-hangers, al
though he prefers seat-handles as
more stable. He walks from his
home on Wyoming avenue over to
the car line on Connecticut and
sometimes bit further before
boarding the car.
Sometimes a friend of the sena-
tors stops and takes him into his
autmobile-the senator is very DEM
ocratic about it. If not, he boards
car marked Lincoln Park and rides
down through the heart Of the city
and east until it stops at the SEN
ate office building. He never re-
quires transfer because he doesn't
have to change.
LOwman on Bus
II one takes bus down Sixteenth
street in the morning he is likely
some time to find himself seated
alongside the Hon. Seymour Low
man, assistant secretary Of the
treasury and titular boss Of all pro-
hibition enforcement. That is, if
Mr.. Lowman has been lucky enough
to get a seat. If he went to the
treasury a title earlier he would be
completely out Of luck, for the bus
is always crowded during the rush
hour before it reaches Belmont street
where Lowman swings aboard.
Some Of the best elbow-rubbinp is
to be had on the sidewalks, how
ever. If you time yourself, you can
brush Vice President Dawes of q
morning on Sixteenth street, hik-
ing toward the capital pending the
moment his motor car will come
along and pick him up. Or, if you
wait on the Connecticut avenue
bridge you're likely to have to make
way for former President Taft him
self. If you greet him he will nod

Theodore Roosevelt and the Navy

n Today, North Dakota is paying it's respects
{ to Theodore Roosevelt, it's fellow-citizen, and
. to the United States Navy. This is Navy and
s. Roosevelt Day, an occasion which calls for a
h look into the past.
Theodore Roosevelt can almost be called a
{ North Dakota product. Though he was not
born here, it was in the western part of this
state that he regained his health and that he
{ first started on that climb which eventually
{ led him to the presidents chair.
It was characteristic of Roosevelt that he
was one of the first to take up the cudgeli
, vigorously for the navy. Largely through his
] influence, the number of ships was increased
and national attention was turned to the navy
as peace time instrument
Nowadays, we think too little of the navy
i As Commander Bradley points out in an inter.
view in today's issue, littl. attention is paid t.
ore of the phases of naval work in which North
Dakota, as a great producer of export crops
should be interested That is the merchant
marine. And in estimating the value of thu
navy as peace time force, it's aid in insurina
: that the merchant marine will function smooth
" and without friction in intercourse with
other countries should not be underestimated.
We have gone far since the days of Roose
velt But there is an apathetic attitude to
ward the military branches Of the United States
that Roosevelt would never have countenanced
A little more of the Rooseveltian aggressive
ness and persstency is the need of today il
this country is to maintain it's rghtful place
in world circles.

SAME and SINNER
Z Anne AuSt1u

While Bob lay sleeping, his
breathing deep and regular, Faith
lay with wide, tragic eyes staring
into the dark. And she knew that
she would have been almost willing
to exchange her hope for q spiritual
heaven for the power to drop into
the oblivion which so obviously had
swallowed up her husband and any
pain and grief and JOY that he had
experienced that memorable night.
And as she lay in the dark, re-
sentful, subconsciously, Of that even,
deep breathing Of the man she loved
too passionately for her own peace
Of mind, she could not sustain her
role Of utter humility. She knew
now that her vehemence had been
dictated by her supreme need to be-
lieve that she was wholly in the
wrong, for if she were, then she
could believe that Bob loved her as
much, in a different, man-like way,
as she loved him.
And now in the dark her hard
won comfort fell from her, like a
cloak dragged by brutal hands,
leaving her heart naked and cold,
almost as desolate as it had been
while she waited for Bob to return.
She could no longer refuse to face
the truth; he had not told her that
he did not love Cherry. He had
merely accused her Of "foolishness, =
Of torturing herself with sadistic
imaginings. OF course that was in
direct assurance, but he had not CIV
en- her the surest Of comfortable
flat statement in SO many words,
that he had never loved Cherry as
he loved her; that his infatuation for
her was completely dead.
No, he had said none Of these
things, she reminded herself Bit
terly. And again that CHASTITY pic
ture, which she had tried to erase
from her mind by the vehemence

Deserving of Praise

Such a magazine as that the Northern Pa
cific railway is now publishing, calling atten-
ton to the agricultural opportunities and other
northwest states, is decidedly worth while.
The last issue Of this magazine, ",The North
west" dwells in detail on the advantages of
Central North Dakota. Figures are given Oh
the cheapness of land, the richness of the soil
and how easy it is to till, the educational, So
cial and commercial advantages.
Letters from farmers in the central section
Of the state, telling of their experiences, are
freely quoted and land-buyng opportunities
are listed.
"Thc Northwest" must prove potent force
in the development Of this state The North
ern Pacific has always been an enthusiastic
supporter of anything which will benefit North
Dakota, and in the publication of this magazine
it is adding to the prestige of the state as well
as of the cities along it's line.

LOYALTY. Football and Life


The head coach of college football team
went on strike refusing to touch finger to ;
pigskin, in protest.
While the motives behind such a demonstra
ton usually are pretty we'll mixed, loyalty Ger
tainly is not among the outstanding. We seen
to see there lack of the ode for old Siwash'
spirit. as well as the absence of an inspiring
leader who could lead the men past the shoal:
Of such rebellion.
The pctulance behind the strike idea here is
most apparent. This football team is sup.
posed to represent school, not a COACH 1t is
as if group of miners went on strike because
they liked their pit boss even though the man.
agement of the mine had found him untitled
for the job.
Football players are supposed to learn from
the game discipline if not much else. They
certainly didn't learn it in this case. They de.
cided to make their own rules. Then there is
loyalty to the alma mater, which here seems
to mean nothing at all. 1t looks to US like a
bad gesture.

future destiny Of the child is decid-
ed mostly before the time Of birth
takes place, as the mothers heart
is the child's first schoolroom.
As in the treatment of disease
a cure is often possible, but the
greatest wisdom lies in studying and
applying means of preventing dis
ease. Even so, the mother must un-
derstand the great responsibility
placed upon her by Divine Provid-
ence in giving her the opportunity
for shaping the mind and body Of
her child according to the best judg-
ment and desires Of her creative in
'telligence.
Questions and Answers
QUESTION:: A reader writes:
Gam reading your articles with
much interest. In speaking Of fast
ing, do you believe a person having
mental work should do without alb
solute'. no food on these days, or
should some liquid such as fruit
juice be taken if one keeps at
work ?"
ANSWER: usually recommend
a f.uit fast rather than a plain
water Fast. It seems to me that pa
tients eliminate better while taking
the fruit juices. OF course, there is
some stimulation from the fruit
sugar which makes it easier for
one to keep ON with his work while
taking the fast.
QUESTION: NJ. X. writes: 'eWhen
/ eat large amount of lettue it
makes me sleepy. What is the cause
of this ?"
ANSWER: Lettuce contains a GER
tain hypnotic agent called hyoscya-
min, and when this vegetable is used
in great quantities it does produce
drowsincss to a certain degree which
causes slowing up of the digestive
process. Those whose, digestive
powers are not strong should use
lettuce in small quantities, as these
ill effects are not at all pronounced
if lettuce is used in only moderate
amounts.
QUESTION: Rose asks: 'Will you
kindly publish the symptoms Of tape
worm and what to do?"
ANSWER: TIL re are no definite
sympt oms Of tapeworm which can be
depended on. Sometimes the pa
tient loses weight, and has a feroci-
Gus appetite, but this is not always
the case. If you suspect you have
a tapeworm, / suggest that you go
to your druggist and have him give
you a tapeworm remedy. Then
watch the stools. There are many
different kinds Of intestinal worms
besides the tapeworm, and some Of
the others will produce trouble such
as nervousness, rectal itching, nau-
sea, etc.

Our Best Dressed Women

Paul Poiret. the Partisan style impresario OF
what have you, arriving in America, sagely
remarks that the women of America are the
best dressed women in the world. The remark
is picked up by the press associations and car
ried over the country.
Talk about an ambassador of goodwill
Here is Paul Poiret, stealing our stuff from
under our very noses. He is coming to Amer
lea, ostensibly to help us along with our styles
yet our women are the best dressed in the
world. Paul should have been sent to us as
minister, not merely as a dresser of window
dummies.
American women he finds the best dressed
in the world even If flesh-colored hose he does
term an abomination. Too monotonous, my
dears! A woman looks better in dark hose
black or dark blue.
American women are the best dressed won1-
en- in the world Paul says, even though they
do not wear their skirts properly. Skirts
should end five inches below the knee. Well.
# he finds any skirts five inches below the
knee on any Of the best dressed women in
America, Paul should have the Nobel prize
for something or other.
American women are the best dressed won-
en- in the world but Paul hasn't come over here
to buy something. He's here to sell some.
thing remotely connected with the name of
Poiret, we suspect. His words, american
women are the best dressed women in the
world" sounds just fine. However, perhaps
the sentence would have been more accurate
had he worded it, American women are the
best dressed women in the world, but"
Welcome, anyhow, Paul, and if you can cover
up some of the knees we've seen lately, we
hope YOU come over often.

Wu0I yOu IIlOSL uC.
sire. In short, no matter what your
shortcomings may have been, if you
can constantly picture in your own
mind :. new life beautiful in all that
life olds dear, that beauty Of your
desire will mirror itself in the first
happy, clean, intelligent look from
those baby eyes.
The reason that God made moth
ers is because He could not be every
where, and YOU will never be closer
to Divinity than when you are Great
ing a new life. No amount of will
power will bring this about, but only
a sincere desire coming from your
deepest heart longings will make it
possible for you to realize true frui-
ton of perfect motherhood.
If you really desire your child to
be kind, you must learn to think
kindly thoughts. If you desire your
child to be just. think justly, your
self. If you wish your child to be
good in every way, learn to live a
good life-tolerant of others, and
generous to the last degree. ELM
mate from your surroundings any
thing unlovely or petty, and your
child will never become a social
menace or a public charge.
After birth much can be done to
correct the harm caused during preg-
nancy, to the mind of the child, but
with all our educational systems and
houses of correction, society has
found the problem a very difficult
one.
The tendencies to crime and dis
ease are engendered mostly in the
mothers womb, and anything which
may be done after birth is only in
the nature of attempting to correct
faults already deeply rooted. The
