100 GAMBLE STORES
BY JUNE | IS GOAL
Last Year 80 Units Were Added
to Chain Carrying Auto
Supplies and Hardware

From one small store a few short
years ago to 100 stores by June Of
1929 has been the remarkable growth
OF Gamble stores, now distributing in
seven northwestern states-Minne.
sofa, North and South Dakota, Ne.
braska, Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin.
Automobile supplies only were
handled at the beginning" said Q. G.
Freiss, manager Of the local Gamble
store, today, "but we have since added
many other lines, radio and radio
supplies, hardware, paints, lacquer
and varnish, electrical appliances and
supplies and sporting goods. We have
reached almost department store pro-
portions"
Their greatest development took
place in 1923, with the addition Of
80 units. During that year each
store was made uniform, with the
same type Of fixtures installed in
each. Blue and orange were adopted
as colors and each store front Is now
painted In the same style. Blue and
orange front signs were placed on
every store. and road signs in the
same colors were placed along the
main roads out Of every town in
which they operate.
Feeling that much OF their success
is due to the friends they have made.
and that people like to trade where
there Is spirit Of friendliness, the
Gamble Stores have adopted as their
slogan. THE Friendly Store" It will
be their endeavor to make this hold
true. Each manager and associate
wears button on his coat, giving his
first name. He wants to be known
and called Jack or Bob, as the case
may be, and he usually Is. The town
where his store Is located becomes the
managers residence. His children
sttend school there. He is vitality In
terested In al local problems.

BAD CHECKS Annoy
CAR LICENSE CHIEF
Graham Suggests Auto Owners
Use Cashiers Paper or
Send Money Order

Trouble In cashing some Of the per-
sonal checks received at his office has
caused w. s. Graham. registrar of
motor vehicles, to issue an appeal to
the automobile owning public for
help.
In too many cases, Graham said.
the checks are not honored when pre-
sented at the bank and 1t costs more
than they are worth, In some cases,
to collect them. It Is necessary, II
correspondence fails to do the work.
to send special agent out to collect
the money or to get back the tags
which may have been issued on the
assumption that the check was good.
It often happens that the drawer of
the check makes 1t good as soon as
he learns that 1t has not been hon
ored at the bank, but Graham would
like to reduce his bad checks problem
to the minimum.
He suggests that In most cases It Is
relatively easy to obtain a postal
money order or bank draft and that
this will remove the possibility of
trouble.
Most Of the applications for auto
mobile licenses are filled out at banks
In the smaller towns and in such
cases 1t would be just as easy to OBJ

CAPITOL THEATRE

Frank r. Capra. who directed the
Columbia talking picture, THE
Younger Generation" at the Capitol.
adapted for the screen from the ia
nous play ut Is to Laugh" by Fannie
Hurst, has seen to 1t that none Of the
authors sympathetic story has been
lost In fact, he has added many
human touches that develop the diff
ferent characterizations with a deft-
ness and understanding that prove
him a master psychologist.
The action of the play deals with
an East Side family. The mother
and father are of the old school,
simple folk, without any great aspi-
rations Their son and daughter have
ideas and ideals of their own. It is
a conflict Of youth and old age. The
son. a Shrewd business man, wins
wealth and tl% for social position.
His sister holds a childhood love
affair most precious, and elects to
stand by her sweetheart when he gets
into trouble, in spite of the fact that
her brother forbade her to see him.
Because Of her action. the girl is
turned from her brothers home.
Then. OH her wedding night, her
husband is sent to prison. What fol-
lows converts Miss Hurst's Sympa-

SHIPPERS Fighting
EICHTRATE JUMP
in west OF State
larkin and Hendricks Before
Commerce Commission This
Week, Opposing Step

Argument on the proposal Of North
Dakota railroads to establish q higher
level Of freight rates west Of the Mis-
souri, river than Is effective In the
eastern part Of the state is being pre-
sented to the Interstate Commerce
commission at Washington, this week
by Representatives Of the state rail-
road commission.
Commissioner Ben @. Larkin and
E. M. Hendricks, traffic expert, are
presenting the case for shippers living
west Of the river.
The proposal of the railroads Is to
split the state into two sections for
ratemaking purposes. Tho dividing
line would follow the Missouri river
from the southern border to WASH
burn, the line Of the 500 railroad
from Washburn to Max and an imag-
mary line from Max to the Canadian
border, through Minot and Lansford.
The railroads contend that operat-
Ing conditions and traffic density are
worse In the western part Of the state
than east of the river and that higher
rates are justified by this fact.
Opponents, as represented by the
railroad board, deny these claims and
contend that there Is no Justification
for the division. They have compiled
data showing that the revenue re-
ceived by the railroads from each
mile Of line is larger in the western
part Of the state than in the eastern.
One reason for this is that the west
ern part Of the state had fewer
branch lines and a mile Of railroad
serves much larger territory there
than in the eastern section.
II the proposal Of the railroads is
approved it is estimated by the rail-
road board that 100000 q year
would be added to the freight bill Of
western North Dakota.

greatly within the past few years, there
are still too few In operation to take
care of the needs of all the children.
1t is perfectly natural, therefore, that
immature minds should decide that the
street is the next best place and it. is
here that parental discipline should be
brought into play.
Years ago it may have been fairly
safe for the juveniles to enjoy their
fun ia front of their homes. But
horse-drawn vehicles were never the
danger that automobiles are today. IN
der present conditions no public thor
oughfare should be used for the games
of children. Even the less frequentcd
streets are unfit for this use. Engrosseo
in his games the child will fail to heed
the occasional passing machine and this
failure often spells injury or death.
Regardless of all the precautions
taken by parents there will still be chill
dren who will disobey and it is dis
tinctly up TO the motorist to drive with
such care that the lives of these young
sters may be protected. A special sort
of right-of-way should be given to chill
dren frolicking in the streets, and under
these circumstances the motorist should
hold to a slow speed with eyes alert
and hands and legs ready for instant
action. If parents do their part and
motorists theirs Washington should
have low juvenile fatality rate during
the Spring and Summer months.

EVERYDAY RELIGION
E BY THE RIGHT REP. JAMES E. FREEMAN, D. D. IL. d,
Bishop OF Washington

the finest Interpretation Of immortality
contained in any literature. What these
affirmations Of the great Master have
meant to humanity, who will dare to
say? Sorrows have been mitigated, the
cry of despair answered, the broken
heart healed. With Christ's word Of
assurance we pass from speculation and
conjecture to definiteness of statement
and fixity CT belief. 1t is not unreason-
able to say that the message Of Easter
brings more of solace and comfort to
the human heart and mind than any
the world has needed. Without it we
are
Like children crying In the night.
And with no language but cry
For nearly 20 centuries of time count
less millions have accepted the mighty
statements OF Christ, and upon them
have based their hopes and expecta-
tions concerning Immortality The be-
lief which this day afiirms has o dis
tinct and immediate bearing upon life
here and now. Jesus did not by teach
ing or suggestion imply that we lived
two lives. He spoke Of life In terms of
unbroken continuity. He made 1t clear
ly evident that this life was o prepara-
ton for the larger, fuller life that Is to
follow. It is inconceivable that one who
holds to the teaching of Christ should
regard the brief span Of life here with
out regard to its relation to the more
abundant life of the future. st. Paul
believes this so deeply that he says, IF
We then be risen with Christ, seek those
things which are above" This whole
conception of immortality lifts life to q
new plane of dignity and power. 1t
emphasizes the transcendence Of per-
sonality as well as its persistence. The
earthbound man, whose concerns are
limited by time and space, may live his
life carelessly and regard the end of 1t
all as simply that OF penalties or re-
wards: on the other hand, the man who
places his trust in the sovereign word
Of the risen Christ must of necessity
conform his habit of life now to what
he believes it must be hereafter. In a
sense, we are the architects Of our
own fortunes" 1.-THE ideal life, the life
full of completion, haunts us ALL" So
we come again to another Easter day
with the ancient salutation,
THE Lord is risen,
He Is risen, indeed"

Mergers Under the Law.

It Is told Of the late John G.. Johnson,
celebrated Philadelphia corporation
lawyer, that when his most important
client, E. H. Hartman, sought advice
as to the legality Of proposed railroad
merger, johnson rendered four word
opinion for which he charged $100,0 900.
1t read: Merger possible. Conviction
certain" The plan was abandoned.
The world moves. Nowadays corpora
ton executives, eyes peeled on the Sher-
man antitrust law, meticulously watch
their step. Today we read Of the pro-
posed 100000 900 combination between
the Radio Corporation of America and
the International Telephone g. Tele-
graph Co., whereby the greatest cable
dio-telephone amalgamation in the
world is to be effected.
But in announcing this portentous
deal, Gen. Harbord, president of the
Radio Corporation, points out that the
agreement just reached "is merely an
accord as to the desirability of con-
solidation" of the various communica-
ton systems involved. 1t is "a tentative
plan" under which the consolidation
may be accomplished when the law
permits" Enthusiastically the high CON-
tracing parties expect changes in the
Federal statutes, which will sooner or
later validate their vast project. Until
such amendments are enacted matters
are evidently to remain in allegiance
1t is case of safety first
There is deepest significance in this
cautious program. 1t indicates that big
business is not the ruthless juggernaut
it is so often depicted, especially by
fiamboyant men in public places and
for claptrap political purposes of their
own. Today corporate capital is vigi-
liant net to break the law, but to obey
it. No more graphic illustration of that
situation has come to the country's no.
tice in long time than the circum-
spection with which the Radio Corpora
toni. T. & T, merger is being ;ncu-
hated.

Playing in the Street.

DR.. Claude A. Burnett of the Flower
Hospital of New York has issued a
timely warning to parents to reiterate
to their offspring the admonition BE
careful while playing in the street"
Spring fever affects both adult and
child and each year additional warn
ings are necessary to impress upon the
parents the necessity of repeated warn
ings to their children. Seventeen Of
the twenty-five juveniles admitted to
the hospital in one week, the doctor
pointed out, were hurt in street games,
'.AIl mothers" DR.. Burnett said, Should
warn their children to observe the
utmost care while out of doors and to
use the Fairgrounds whenever possible"
The same advice could well be given
to washington parents. This is the
time of the year when the youngsters,
imbued with the sense of activity that
Spring so invariably gives, will begin
their late afternoon games Of hide-af1d-
seek, -skip-and- Jump, or base ball.

"The Universal CHALLENGE

One OF the most distinguished jour-
nalists in America who himself had
passed through great sorrow that had
Frustrated him told me that he made a
survey Of the worlds literature in search
of some definite affirmation that would
deepen his assurance of immortality
Like many another, he read all the
great philosophers. In them he found
repeatedly expressed the yearning for
immortality, and In some instances ex-
pressionS that seemed to affirm 1t. My
friend was asking the age-old question
If q man die, shall he live again?'
After his long search through philos.
ophy and literature in general, he turned
to the Scriptures. In the Old Testamen,
he found repeated expressions that sug-
gested the endlessness of life, but not
until he turned to the New did he find
anything that suggested supreme au-
thority.
AS a matter of fact, going clear back
to the Egyptian books Of the dead and
pursuing the study through Attic phi
losophy and on to the latest word that
has come from the pen OF Sir Oliver
Lodge, there Is nothing but speculation
or what some one calls "guesSes al
truth" 1t is only from the lips Of the
Savior, whose glowing resurrection we
commemorate this day, that any def
mite word has come in answer to the
deepest warnings of the human soul
Here we find In Him alone the word OF
finality and authority. In no literature
in the world has one dared to affirm
II am the resurrection and the life; he
that believeth in Me, though he were
dead, yet shall he live" or again, Be
cause live, We shall live also" True,
He does not attempt to give to the In
Quiring and anxious mind any word
concerning the conditions Of the after
life. The most outstanding suggestion
He gives concerning rewards and judg-
ments is found in the parable of Dives
and Lazarus
Based upon His stupendous utterance
the Christian Church round the world
has been builded. st. Paul's conviction
is that of Christendom, IF Christ be
not risen from the dead, then is our
preaching vain, and your faith is also
vain" So deep is this conviction in
the great apostle that in his fifteenth
chapter of Corinthians he gives us

q new home for the Department OF
State, which Is now inadeuuately housed
as a co-tenant in the building to the
west of the White House and Is also
scattered about in various outside ac-
cornmodatlons. No site has been men
toned for this construction in the pro-
gram of buildings to occupy the Mall
Avenue triangle. It is, however, In
dlcated that the site favored by the
commissions is the square lying immedi-
ately north of the present building.
Whatever the position preferred provi-
sion for the new State Department
should not be long delayed. None OF
the read'ustments incident to the con-
structions immediately in progress and
contemplated will relieve the State De-
partment congestion or grant 1t space
for the consolidated housing of its own
bureaus. 1t must be regarded as one
of the urgent public building needs. No
provisional makeshift metal cabinet
equipment that may be provided to
lessen the risk of the loss of valuable
current papers will suffice.
