"ONCE AND FOREVER"

Last night marked the opening night of two of the finest pictures that have even been seen. The main attraction. "Once and Forever" with a cast including Patsy Ruth Miller. John Harron, Burr Mcintosh, William V. Mong, Paulette Duval and others. A picture that you will never forget--a palpitating, human. love story of boy. a girl and constancy forever. As this picture unreels on the screen the audience was deeply moved by the simple and human love story that wound it's way throughout, interspcrsed with lighter moments that broke the tenscness ot the narrative. The pie ture from a pictural standpoint, is beautiful in the extreme with dircc- tions faultless. This picture when once seen will never be forgotten. The companion picture, "Thc Bush Leaguer,"--a small town romance that has all the big towns gasping with laughs. Thrills and action starring Monte Blue and Leila Fly ans.

brought as a gift to his 14 months old daughter.
 Mrs. Levine Wants To Fly
 Being the wife of hero isn't all it's cracked up to be, Mrs. Grace Levine told reporters after welcom- ing home her husband.
 Every time the wife Of a hero gets a telegram or cable she jumps" " she said.
 Mrs. Levine said she was thinking Of learning to fly herself and Le- vine expressed great pleasure at the announcement. He said this reliev ed him of worry in his own exploits, occasioned by news dispatches which gave him the impression that his wife was opposed to further flying on his part.
 Everybody ought to learn to fly he said. Anyone can do it and it's no more dangerous than motoring
 He .aid that he had never gotten q pilots license despite his past flights, but that he would do so if il was necessary to carry out his plans for next year.
 Samuel Hartman, counsel for Le- vine, said that there is every pros pect for settlement out of court of he governments suit for $5O0.000 or more against the flier. Govern ment attorneys, he said, have agreed not to start action until Le- vine had rcgained his Hand legs. The governments claim of from S300, 900 to S500.000 is based upon contracts made by Levine for sur plus war materials. It was asserted that the government did not get all it claimed as legally due and now settlement is sought. Another government claim which may involve a sum equally as large has to do with returns made by Le' vine on his income tax. It is al legged that the returns did not cover all the fier's tax obligations but no charge is made that Levine 1 wilfully deceived the income ta, collector.

President. Constitution Anniversary
Association

ASSOCIATION
September II, 1927, will mark the
140th anniversary of the completion
and signing of our Constitution.
It Is now the oldest written Con-
stitution still functioning in the
world, and not withstanding the
tremendous increase in population
and territory and the epochal
changes which our country has I'M
dergone -including the shock of the
Civil War-this historic document,
marvellous in its brevity and impli-
city, lives on as At for its task today
as when it was signed at Philadel-
phia in 1887.
In his great farewell address, =
delivered on September II, 1876, the
ninth anniversary of the signing Of
the Constitution, Washington ex-
pressed the hope:
@That the Constitution may be
sacredly n1aintained-that the hap
piness OF the people OF these States
may be made complete by so care
full a preservation, and so prudent a
use of this blessing as will acquire to
them the glory of recommending ii
to the applause, the affection and
adoption of every nation"
Washington believed so thor
ougl1!y in the endurance and use
fitness of the Constitution that he
expressed the hope that other ma
lions would adopt it as their form
Of government.

testing, William Gladstone, who

The President and the Farmer

During the World War an army welfare worker
seized an opportunity offered by halt in the march
of American division toward the battle lines to
deliver an address to group Of infantry soldiers
He expanded on the nobility of the allied cause
and the cosc significance of the soldiers sacrifice
He was about to mount to greater heights when
foot-sore, weary and hungry doughboy broke up the
meeting by shouting, cats fine-but when do
we eat?"
Among the farmers who heard President Coolidge
speak, in dedicating the Lincoln Memorial Library at
the South Dakota Agricultural College, there may
have been those who could sympathize with that
soldier.
The President talked principally about the neces-
sity of paying more heed to the spiritual side of life
and made no reference to the overshadowng problem
of farm relief.
AS an isolated document the Presidents address
above reproach He proved that Lincoln was
interested in agriculture, and that it is peculiarly
fitting to agricultural college library in his
honor He pointed out that the knowledge developed
and spread by agricultural colleges is in large
responsible for the remarkable increase in farm
production But he warned that mere increase in
economic power is not enough, and that more empha
sis must be given to the development of our moral
power"
To many of his farmer listeners the Presidents
address must have been at least surprise. They
probably expected that after summer in the West
he would discuss their present problems in neigh
borly fashion and give some clew to the workings of
the presidential mind about farm relief
After he had quoted Lincoln's statement that mo
other human occupation opens so wide a field for
profitable and agreeable combination of labor with
cultivated thought as agriculture" they might have
been hopeful that President Coolidge would note that
this is no longer true and that he would outline
ideas about how such situation can be restored
He didn't Instead he turned to argue that tine
life of the nation must rise to higher realm"
That it must, no one has the temerity or the
knowledge to dispute. But many of the farmers of
the country haven't paid last years taxes or the
interest on the>mortgage For them the path to the
higher life is obscured by harassng economic problems
About how these problems should be solved the
President offered suggestion. His omissions rather
than what he said, may give rise to interesting
discussion in farm circles.

Real Victory in Indiana

Governor Jackson's indictment
dpes not prove that he is guilty, but
it does prove that sufficient evil
dence was placed before the grand
jurors to convince them that he
ought to be tried. Those who know
the conditions that prevail in In
diana will recognize this as a real
victory for the forces that clean
politics. What is peculiarly graft
flying to us in the profession is that
these papers played an important
part in gaining the victory. But for
a few honest and fearless editors,
Indiana would be as firmly in the
grip of a rotten political machine as
it was four years ago. 1t took not
only courage, but skill to make expo
sures and carry on the campaign
necessary to action Of any kind.
