DEATH CHEATS
NORTH DAKOTA
MANS FRIENDS
Federal Pardon Plea Denial Ar
rives simultaneously With
Death Note

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 14.-(AP)-
Death has cheated the federal gov
ernment and = group of North Da-
kotans who made . plea to the fed
eral board for William H. Wright's
freedom following his plea Of guilty
to embezzling 5000 in federal funds
while deputy custom collector at
/. Northgate, N. D.
Seth Richardson, Fargo, United
States federal district attorney, re-
ceived two letters yesterday. The
first was from the federal pardon
board, denying plea which had been
made in his behalf by residents of
Northgate and which had Richard
sons support.
The second letter was from the
states attorney at Bowbells, inform
ing Richardson that Wright had died
a few days ago as t result of COM
plications following an appendicitis
operation. When arraigned in fed
eral court in Minot last month
Wright readily admitted that he
withheld funds collected as duties OF
grain imports into the United States
while he was in the customs service
at Northgate. He gave no explana-
tion for his speculations, however.
Friends in Northgate and vicin-
ity pointed out that Wright had
asked for . tr-nsfer to the south in
an effort to aid the health of his
wife, who was suffering from tu-
berculosis, and his infant child, who
was suffering from heart disease.
They expressed the belief that the
funds which he had taken were used
supplying the medical needs of his
family and immediately began petit
tions and sent letters to federal auth
critics seeking to gain his freedom.
He was released on bonds and SEN
tence was withheld until plea to
authorities at Washington could be
made.

Everyday Law Cases
May Bidders Agree Not to Bid at
Auction Sale?
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

The foreclosure sale. of the house
of Samuel Hunt was in progress and
the. bidding in front of the auctioneer
was for time spirited. Then the bid
ding suddenly stopped and the auc-
tioneer announced the sale to the last
bidder, Henry Platt.
Samuel Hunt was disappointed at the
price the shouse had brought, as he
had expected that the sale would bring
enough to cover the mortgage which
had been forecloSed and sum in ex-
cess thereof which the trustee would
turn over to him.
Investigating, Hunt found that Platt
had, during the course of the auction,
dissuaded the other bidders from bid
ding upon offering them a financial in
ducement. Thereupon he filed suit ask
ing that the foreclosure sale be set
aside.
At the trial the other bidders de-
clared that they had a right to bid at
the sale or refuse to bid as they chose
and that their motive could not be
questioned.
The court ruled that the sale be
vacated, stating:
"A sale at auction is a sale to the
best bidder; its object, a fair price: its
means. competition. Any agreement
therefore, to stifie competition is a
fraud upon the principles on which
the sale is founded If the act pre-
vents a fair, free and open bidding OF
i chills the sale so that the property Is
purchased for less than its market
value 1t is contrary to public policy
and the sale is vitiated. If the agree
ment is for any honest purpose the
sale will be valid"

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT
BY JOSEPH JASTROW.

the change comes suddenly and the
boy grows so fast that he can't keep
up. In such cases the physical growth
processes have the right of way.
Inevitably, for most boys and girls,
we can do no more than provide as
best we can in the same environment
what meets these growing needs. These
are the very center of the school years,
and the feeling is natural that educa-
ton must go on, or time and continuity
be lost. Schooling also is preparing for
growing into life. 1t is so much part
of our conventional program that often
we forget how artificial it is in natures
scheme.
But if not schooling and the broad
ening contacts with many phases of
lite, some of them helpful and as many
harmful, If we have in mind the usual
environment of crowded cities and the
temptations of small towns, what else?
In this case the overgrown, the too
rapidly growing boy has fine solution.
Why not the free open life as nature
sets it and enough responsibility and
duty to feel that one has place in
it? This choice is often the prescrip-
ton of wise physicians, when Adde'S
cents get out of hand and boys seem
to develop peculiaritiss because they
find thmselves badly f1sted to their en-
vironment, little too cramped in the
schoolroom because Of the call of action
and the open and of adventure and of
play of large muscles and more man
sized jobs. Naturally, parents. fond
mothers especially. who look back few
years, find 1t hard to realize that little
Tommy has grown into big Tom. has
grown rapidly, almost too rapidly, into
laic NUN life oY,d o,,f af fhairc
Adolescence is such a special prob
lem that 1t requires a peculiar apti-
tude in men, whether they be teachers
or doctors or ministers or Boy Scout
leaders, or big brothers or just fathers,
to direct its career wisely, and the same
in parallel terms for the other sex.
Childhood is totally different matter
and requires a different flare for its
understanding and direction.
For boys especially at this age it is
of great Importance that most of their
contacts in guidance with teachers es-
pecially shall be with men. The ideal
Boy Scout leader is specialist in ado
lescence. To be that he must be more
than expert in the ways of the woods
and technique of self help and the
social art Of getting much out of his
men while yet one Of them; he must
know intimately the secret places of a
boys heart, and the gateways to his
pride. and the spring to release his best
efforts.
Boy Scouting expresses that freer
type of activity helpful to those grow
ing into life too rapidly. If 1t can be
combined with schooling. so much the
better. Often it is best to let schooling
go for time and let nature do her
part in growth of body and maturity OF
mind.
