Bismarck today was . summer

Business Prospects Good
Clemens Survey Shows
Liquidation Of Mortgage In.

Grain Prices
Increased Volume of Retail
Sales Counteracts Bank De.
posits' Drop

Good prospects for retail trade
and fewer business and farm fail
ures are in prospect for North Da-
kota during the next few months,
according to p. w. Clemens, presi-
dent Of the Northern and Dakota
Trust company. in his monthly re-
view of North Dakota business con-
ditions written for the Associated
Press and its member newspapers.
The review follows:
BY p. w. Clemens
Good prospects for retail trade
throughout the winter months, and
a continued lull in collections and
fewer business and farm failures are
the recent outstanding develop
ments, according to our October bus
mess survey.
On the reverse side Of the picture
is the general sentiment that liqui-
dation Of mortgage indebtedness will
be small and slow, due to the very
unsatisfactory grain prices and the
unwillingness Of the farmers to sell
their wheat at prices that would
have been considered low even in
the pre-war years.
Retail Sales Larger
Bank clearings at Fargo and
Grand Forks for September were
slightly under those Of q year ago,
$14,579,252 and $14, ,632 respec-
lively. Some cities of the state
show an increase. During most of
October the relation has been the
same. Retail sales throughout the
state, however, are exceeding those
Of last year. For example, % ]. c..
Penny stores in North Dakota report
an increase of 20.11 per cent in
their business over that of year
ago, the increased business for this
state being larger than the average
for the United States for this organ
ization. 49,
Many factors are contributing to-
ward an increased volume of retail
sales. One is the constant trend to-
ward improved standards of living,
SO noticeable among the farming
population of North Dakota and the
United States during the past five
years. Hardly season rolls by but
that some luxury becomes generally
accepted as a necessity, with no re-
verse or compensating change in
classification.
Livestock Is Factor
The greatly increased volume of
livestock PRODUCTION is probably the
most important cause of increased
retail sales.
Cream, butter, eggs and poultry
are bringing good prices and this
section produces q large amount of
thi sfarm produce" declares Fred

once asked, whats in a
name? 2"
Your modern baseball re-
porter will tell you that there's
very little indeed to names, par
ticularly the names of those
who stride annually up to the
big league for that golden OPP
portunity to make important
jack. as a ball player. The
same reporter will tell you that
the plain Bills and Jacks and
Georges and Mikes make good
under the big top with just as
much regularity as the lads who
sport such fancy handles as Ira,
Luke, Aaron, Alphonse or Ur-
ban.
However, there are some very
unusual labels attached to the
1928 recruits who this spring
will ramble III the upper strata
of baseball until their caliber
is more definitely determined.
and not the least Of these are
Mr.. Merle Settlemore and Mr..
Joseph Doughty Cicero, both of
the Boston Red Sox, if you
please.
Perhaps it is by design or
perhaps through one of those
odd twists of fate which take
two such distinguished names
to the City of Culture, but if
Merle and Cicero make good in
the Hub, the writers up there
will be put to their merits to
accord the boys cognomens in
keeping with the dignity OF
their real names.
Now the Pirates have
hurler by the name of Lester
Bartholomew, which isn't going
to be an easy one to disguise
in the necessarily brief head
lines nor is it going to be an
easy one out Of which to evolve
some short and apt substitute
which will be in harmony with
the slang Of baseball. Can you
imagine such an elegant name
as that on the same payroll
with Oil Smith?
Ralston Hemsley is another
name the Pittsburgh scribes are
going TO have to wrestle with
until DOME Bush does something
with him, and If he should stick
to fast company-well, what on
earth can you do with a name
like Ralston Hemsley, anyway?
Thank goodness he isn't on the
Washington team-that's our
prayer for today!
"A Yankee scout has turned up

what his parents call him. He'll

FINLAYSON SCHOOL NOTES
why Do They Do 1t:

Six o'clock has arrived and still a
few pens scratch YEARLY across the
paper. Perhaps they have been just
trifle too liberal with the red ink,
but then DIS and Els have peculiar
habit of filling up many of the little
squares. Do you wonder what it all
means? It's not hard to guess. Re-
port cards are out!
Just how much do they mean to
you who receive them? Are they only
another chance for mother to go over
the same old argument or do you
really enjoy knowing where you
stand? Very likely you glance at it
few times, wonder carelessly why
she couldn't have given you bet
ter mark, and calmly forget it for
another six weeks. And as for the
teachers should they spend ex-
ira hours at such an unappreciated
task? Yet they work, and work hard
to average each pupils marks. 1t
must require great courage to become
teacher and see before you an end
less procession of marks for every
year to come. Any teacher will con-
cede that writing down poor marks
could hardly be called a pleasure.
Surely they do not do it for their own
satisfaction. They know quite we'll,
without writing it down, what you
deserve. After all, the next year may
find them miles away-still averaging
marks for other pupils. There are
a few. of course, who realize all that
goes into the preparation Of a report
card and value them accordingly.
