POPULARIZlNG THE AIR

Quite unconsciousy the American people are being
educated to the fact that travel by air is the most
rapid modern transportation, is undertaken with high
degree Of safety and is remaking the transportation
map Of the world
The recent Reliability Air Tour which passed through
North Dakota was directed to that end The forth
coming visit here Of Martin Jensen Oakland Homo
lulu flyer, has the same objective.
Because there many spectacular attempts to
negotiate new air records and in many they are
attended by disaster the public still regards air trans
portatlon as something than the ordinary hazard
Yet that is hardly the case. Last year there was
not a single fatal accident in the handling of the
United States mail from New York to San Francisco
and the percentage of failures of mail airplanes was
something less than four in one hundred. Yet daily
service in all kinds of weather was given. The mail
flyers negotiated storms long stretches over mountain
country. There were few forced landings.
The modern arpane steadily is becoming more
safe and efficient That evidenced in the types
OF planes which appeared at Mnot Sunday as well as
in the ease and accuracy with which they were
operated
Their flights stirred thousands to admiration re-
stored confidence in the arship as safe means of
travel and sent many farm lad home to dream that
night ne was heroic pilot in the big, blue up there
The air age is coming faster than those not near to
its mechanics realize. The Reliability Tours and the
visits of famous flyers are building up public conf
dence that will hasten its already rapid development

Such schools as that which opens at Fort Lincoln
August are the most effective preparedness meas

peace insurance we'll worth while. month in an
army training camp is the finest kind OF experience
for any young The lessons Of citizenship taught

soldier. It is rugged life filled with work while the
opportunity for play is not neglected
They will rub shoulders with fine types of manhood
from all parts Of the west. They will learn from sea-

that there is no excellence without labor There is
code of honor in the army simply conditioned that is
full of inspiration for all who in contact with it,
It will be month well spent for every man who
attends.
Bismarck has keen interest in the forthcoming

why it should not become of the best camps Of its
kind in the country It's location is ideal The facilities
for it exceptionally good.
So this city will welcome the students to the school

training camp here such from every stand

and annually afford worthwhile opportunity for self
improvement and patriotic service to young Of the
northwest.

THE SKIN

There are many shades Of color to
the human skin, and our place in So
ciety and the effect Of our appear
ance upon other human beings is
largely dependent upon our skin. A
Hottentot or an Eskimo might he as
intelligent and well educated as q
white man, but he would never be
accorded as high . position in white
society.
There is much truth in the saying
that beauty is only skin deep. But
the skin serves other purposes than
camouflaging our muscles and homes.
It is . protective covering Of the
body, keeping out many dangerous
germs, insects and poisons, and re-
tanning the fluids and minerals that
are essential to life.
The skin is also an organ of feel
ing, since most of our nerves Of
touch end in or immediately under
the skin. It regulates the tempera-
ture Of the body so that when we are
too warm moisture is thrown off
and, by the process of evaporation.
keeps the body cool. The skin also
conserves the heat of the body by
driving the blood away from the sur
face into the inner organs that must
be kept warm to preserve life. The
skin assists the lungs and kidneys
to excrete water containing various
toxic waste products, which are 20
poisonous, that if they were re-
tanned, would produce death within
a very short time.
There are two main divisions to
the skin, an outer tough coating
called the epidermis, and the inner
soft layer, rich in blood vessels and
nerves, which is known as the derma
or true skin. The epidermis or outer
layer consists mostly of dead cells
which are continually forced out
from the inside. Since the only
growing cells of the outer layer Of
the skin are located internally, near
the dermis, these divide and force
the older cells outwardly where they
in time scale off.
When unusual pressure comes IN
the skin such as occurs on the soles
OF the feet or in the palms of the
hands. the epidermal cells multiply
with great rapidity and produce an
abnormal thickening. If the pressure
occure on q limited area as some-
times happens when = tight shoe is
worn, . little mound Of epidermal
cells Is built up which we call q corn
or callous. This may be removed bv
various methods, but will always re-
cur unless the pressure that caused
the growth is removed.
A wart is q place where some ir-
ritating acid from the blood has
gathered which causes the epidermal
cells to grow and multiply much
more rapidly than is natural. Can
Ger seems to b. caused in much the
same manner, and may occur either
in the epidermal cells or in the CON
nective tiss:.es which bind the body
together.

ious races, and even Of individuals.

MUSICIANS AND THE MOvIETONE
Chicago Tribune.


The musicians organized in labor are seeking to
obstruct use Of the movetone and other tone and sound
in connection with the showing Of moving pictures The
reproduction of dialogue does not c,cern them. but
the adaptation of the movietone FOR the musical ac-
compartment of the picture does It's general would
close the orchestra pit and silence the organ and the
piano. few musicians would take the place of thou
dried up.
So long the reproduced music only partly fills the
picture house requirements the musicians in their
ganzation have hold the situation. But when the
devices meet all the needs this hold becomes very
slight
It is the age old struggle between the man and the
machine which the machine has ALWAYS Labor for
the most part recognizes that virtually nothn. can be
attained by fighting the machine, and much can be
lost if intelligent perception does suggest the
sary adjustments to conditions If they are under
taken in time there is labor makeover which does not
entail much distress. delayed adjustment sometimes
does mean serious disturbance Of living conditions. The
rule is that the machine wins and in that one reason

never more than q vice presidential
candidate. BY the time the first Re-
publican reached Kansas City, his
best friends and hackers were OBJ
viously all working to land second
place for him.
Charlie himself was honest and
earnest about his higher ambitions
right to the finish, though his
friends must have worried when he
let out that blast against Hoover.
The other candidate who is be-
lieved by some of his party breth-
rem to have talked too much is Joe
Robinson. Joe went to New York
and unleashed public statement to
the effect that there was dirty work
afoot in the south and that it seemed
serious enough to lead the Democrats
to open up real southern headquar-
tiers to offset it.
One now learns that the reaction
in New York Democracy was very
sour indeed. The Robinson proposal
was rejected without ceremony and
Joe was told, in effect, that he was
all wet about the possibility that
the party might lose any of the
southern states.
Some Of the Tammany boys have
been remarking since that il Joe
had any such worries he should have
some to tell the national committee
about it in whispers instead Of blat-
ting it out in public. Bad psychol-
ogy and all that, you know.
Both national chairmen became
voluble after their appointing nts.
There is reason to believe that some-
one told DR.. Hubert Work that a
little less noise from him would be
more than plenty.
John j. Raskob has merely fol-
lowed the lead Of Candidate Smith:
it remains to be seen how his word
to Massachusetts, Democrats to the
effect that liquors place is in the
home will take with the country.

Washington, July 25.-The danger
Of talking too much is ever present

there at all. The country looks for
him to say something and Smith is
trying to comply. His record shows,
fortunately for him, that he can
open his mouth without putting his
foot into it.
Roosevelt's unnecessary remarks
about third term rose later to
plague him. God knows" Presi-
dent Taft said once when someone
asked him the solution Of a press
ing national problem, and it had 4
bad effect over the country. Will
sons assertion that there was such
a thing as being too proud to
fight" hurt him considerably. Cool
idge has demonstrated his capacity
as an expert politician by saying
nothing important, lodging White
House press conferences and confin-
ing his speeches to platitudes.
This year either candidate may
make some break which could con-
clusively lose him the election.
Both vice presidential candidates
already have talked too much, in
the opinion of some members of
their own parties.
Much can be forgiven Charlis Cur
tbs, of course. for he did his talking
before the convention. It was Char

most savagely and publicly pro-
claimed that Hoover's nomination
would put the Republican party on
the defensive.
That crack is bound to be hurled
back at him before the campaign is
over. It was made during those
dear sweet days when Charlie, de-
lirious from a deep bit of the apis

an excellent chance of nomination.
