MANLY

Women have become accustomed to the charge that
they are spelling their beauty either by paint and powder,
or by strenuous exercise. which is destroying the round
ness and softness of the feminine contour. They have
heard these things so often they have become indiffer-
ent to them and keep right on decorating themselves in
whatever way fancy dictates.
But men have been Indifferent to mere facial beauty,
the general opinion being that they have no time for
such trivial consideration; and this indifference has been
increased perhaps by a tradition that the uglier a man
is the more he appeals to womankind-perhaps through
their pity.
So it must be a rude awakening for men to learn that
in the opinion of one of the best known clergymen of
England, Dean Inge of st. Pauls cathedral, the degenera-
ton Of the male countenance is such as to cause alarm.
The dean asks wfa: is the matter with the faces of our
men today, and he adds that they seem more at home
among pygmies. He compares the countenance of the
leading men of today with the magnificent counte-
nanccs' of the Vctorians.
OF course there have been men to come to defense of
the masculine puchritude of today, but so far the dean
seems to be having the best of the argument.

WHEN THE STRONG MEN GO
Duluth Her


a report comes from Berlin that Stain, general secre-
tary OF the Third International and the real car of
Russia, is sick.
That may or may not be so. The report seems to be
based on the fact that recent pictures show Stain lean
Ing on q cane. from which is derived the rumor that he
mas mad a stroke OF paralysis. The cane may mean MOTH
Ing more than a sprained ankle, for that matter; yet the
rumor reminds the world that even Communist leaders
are mortal.
And that raises the question what is going to happen
to Russia and the Communist experiment when its strong
men 60.
SO Tar. from the very beginning until now, Russia has
0een ruled by very able men and very strong men and
very determined men who have been able to bend others
70 their wills and to keep the experiment going by sheer
force Of individual character.
Lenin was 2 very strong man. as well as q very able
man, and the revolution was Lenin as long as Lenin
lasted. Now the revolution Is Stain. What will It be
when Stain goes, as he must?
Perhaps another strong man will rise to keep It going
by the power Of his individuality. Perhaps it viii fall
into the hands OF q COMMITTEES Of weak men who will be
jealous and therefore will fall out and quarrel. In that
event the experiment viii certainly collapse, and some
new order will rise on Its ruins.
soyietism In Russia and Fascism In italy both live only
through very strong individuals, and both will meet q test
which neither can endure when the strong men vanish
from the kaletdoecopac stage q human Affairs.

A LAW NOT THE REMEDY

There is a good deal to be said for a law which would
give congress and the public light on the extent to which
lobbying has become a business in Washington, just as
the citizens of each state want to know who is con-
trolling state legislation and as the citizens of each COM
munity want to know who is having a say in the formu-
lation Of municipal legislation.
Properly safeguarded so as to throw no unnecessary
obstacles in the path of those who wish to present their
views to congress and have a right to do so, there is no
reason why the measure which is proposed in every ses-
sion OF congress should not be passed sometime. But it
would be a mistake to assume that it would go far to
stop the abuses of which members of congress and the
people complain. The best bill of is kind would leave
a lot of territory, which can be covered only
by an alert and intelligent public opinion that exercises
sound judgment in selecting senators and representatives.
No law against lobbying would have prevented the en-
actment OF the legislation which made possible the oil
reserve scandals, or the enactment of the many statutes
which minorities have forced upon the majority. Eff
fective protection against graft. corruption and bad legis-
lation must be found in the character, ability, knowledge
and experience of those put in high office.

IN A HURRY

A traffic observer who is also an observer OF human ma
ture remarks that it is the hurry bug that causes most
of the accidents. He thinks it is almost as definite a
thing as the hookworm. which makes people unnaturally
and insufferably slow. It simply works in the opposite
way, developing a mania fer speed.
The victims Of this mania imagine they have to be al
ways going at maximum velocity. They try to keep up
their speed regardless of obstacles, laws or other peoples
rights. So they are always getting smashed up or smash
ing up somebody else. And what does it get them, even
if they escape violent damage? In p~lunging across town
at break-neck speed they may save, if they are lucky, say
10 minutes. What do they do with the 10 minutes?
They waste it, in al probability, smoking or chatting.
to relieve the strain. Or else they plunge just as fever
ishly into their work, and waste the time saved, and
more, by nervous and unvice action.
1t is all right to be in a hurry, but all wrong to have
ones mind in a hurry. The biggest and most successful
men, the men WHO get the most done, are neatly always
men who do not let themselves get hurried, ana who
therefore see clearly and act calmly and make no mis-
takes.

700 IDEA is ATTRACTIVE

Badly, the American eagle which J. P. Mccarthy
brought over from Montana, sleeps on his roost with
one eye open.
That may be an eagle trait, something common 10 ms
whole tribe. Or it may be that Badly Is an egotist 10
whom publicity-being in the public eye-is SO alluring
that he aims not to miss any manifestation OF II IN the
"A hours of each day; or, again, he may be keeping an
eve open for the latest commotion created by him. With
hundreds stopping daily to look him over and even to
hold converse with him, he must realize that there IS
some sort Of spell he exercises on the public.
The surprising effect which Badly has had Oh the
public has been the revelation of the latent sentiment in
favor of a Bismarck park 200. AS soon as it was sug-
gested that Badly be made the first initiate into such an
establishment. ~seconding suggestions began to bob up in
favor Of the idea. Not all OF these we're visionary, for
some OF them proposed substantial contributions.
The offer of three monkeys was such. Zoos exist largely
for the children. especially the small city ZOOS, at places
where upkeep forbids maintaining such expensive ami
mails as must be brought from other climes-African
lions, Indian elephants, canlels, zebras, ostriches, tigers
and the like.
For Bismarck an appropriate zoo collection would
consist of native animals or such as have been native
here or in the nearby west-bson elk, antelope. wolves,
coyotes, wildcats, cougars-with a %sprinkling of pet ami
mails as the monkeys offered the city If it starts the COL
lection. Cell Cannon and Russell Reid, Bismarck natur-
alists. already have used the idea in their lantern slides
Of Dakota wild life.
1t will be we'll for the park board to remember the en-
thusiasm with which the suggestion started by Baldys
arrival has been received. Hardly at present, but in
the near future, the city may be able to undertake some
thing like this zoo proposal. A park with an animal col
lection such as suggested would be an attractive place
for Sunday and holiday strolls for the public, especially
SO for the children. AT present there is no such place
for the parks in their present state are far from the
development required to turn them into real Fairgrounds
and breathing spots for the city.
Not the least pleasant feature of the discussion started
by the eagle is the revelation of the love for wild life
that is felt here. A Immunity where such an affection
abides is bound to be strong in humane traits. Such
sentiment is a corollary Of virility and it abounds close
to generous impulses in the wider sense. One has but
to recall Theodore Roosevelt. John Burroughs. William L.
Hornaday, John J. Audubon, and even our camera shoot.
ing hunter of African wild life, Martin johnson. all with
such s~plendidly rounded characters. to realize that love of
wild life may be the index Of the unknighted nobleman.

turer need have little fear that he will be overwhelmed
by the giant corporation-experts testify to that.
What promotes the merger idea more than anything
else, 1t would seem, is the growth Of an enterprise past
the stage where personal supervision is practical or de-
sirable. Let emphasis be placed on the latter, because
today there is less willingness to accept responsibility.
Given a case, then, where the management has become
impersonal. 1t is natural to suppose that a consolidation
plan would receive ready attention. A good price
clinches the bargain.
On the other hand, a business conducted under direct
ana positive control and where the personal element fig
ures to an important degree is not SO much machinery
to be bartered back and forth but a life work which
yields a great deal more satisfaction than dividend checks
ever can. The merchants and manufacturers OF this sort
will prove beyond question that the independent can COM
pete on more than equal terms with his large rivals.

Editorial Comment
THE VESTRIS

ISL. Paul Daily NeWS1
Rep. La Guardia Of New York wants the Lamport g.
Holt line not only barred from American ports, but its
mail contracts Cancelled.
Pretty drastic medicine. yet the wreck of the Vestris,
which resulted in the loss of 12 lives. seems to call for
something that shipowners and officers will remember.
No marine disaster of modern times appears to have
been surrounded with as great a degree Of carelessness
and negligence.
Not only was the vestris overloaded and her crew in
efficient, but the idea of preventing salvage fees appears
to have deferred the captain from sending out signals of
distress until it was too late.
An officer Of the Vestris, ~testifying at a hearing now in
progress at London, says that New York lawyers in
Structed him as to what and what not to say at the in
designations held in this country.
If that is true, those lawyers deserve to be brought to
book.
There is plenty of lying not only in connection with
this case, but in connection with others. without the ex-
pert assistance of lawyers who are supposed to help dis
cover the truth.

E OFF THE GRASS"
(nvr Alta HrpI~A~ Dalai

by Alice Juds0n Peale)
The sign Keep off the Grass
meant less than nothing to eight
year-0ld Burke. He ran over newly
seeded lawns and walked with large
feet in the freshly cultivated flower
beds Of the neighborhood. People
scolded him and reported him to his
mother. recommending violent meas
ureS.
She explained to him about the
growing seeds, about the amount Of
work and money 1t took to make the
gardens pretty In the summer. But
Burke was not impressed. Reproofs
and penalties also were tried with no
more success. Burke, in quest Of his
ball or In the midst Of q game, was
obltvious Of consequences.
Finally his mother decided to try
the experiment Of giving him . gar
den Of his own. She presented him
the responsibility Of making attrac-
tive . certain bare corner OF the yard.
She showed him how to prepare the
ground and plant the seeds.
He seeded his lawn, put up q Keep

every day went out to see how his
grass was coming. He planted mas
turtiums and petunias and attributed
their subsequent rank growth to his
own skill and assiduous care.
His ~trespassing on neighborhood
lawns ceased. Instead he gazed with
interest and respect at the achieves
ments OF other gardeners. He even
assumed the duties Of policeman with

yITAMINS ARE ABUNDANT

In spite Of all the recent publicity
about vitamins. very little Is actually
known about what they are or how
they produce changes in the body
Such small quantities of the actual
substances containing vitamins are
required and the effect OF their alb
sence is so pronounced that they may
be said to exert an action as power
full as ON Of the human ductleSs
glands.
Many years ago before vitamins
were discovered, certain German
nature cure" doctors stated that
from their observations upon patients.
certain vital elements were present
in fresh raw foods which were not
present in cooked and prepared foods.
These statements were made even
without the complicated laboratory
tests available to scientists today.
The first conjecture of vitamins as
definite substances came from the
observation that the oriental disease,
beri-beri, resulted from the use of
polished rice, and could be prevented
by the use of rice bran, and that
scurvy could be prevented by the use
Of lime juice.
The knowledge of vitamins is by no
means an exact science, even yet.
The Technology is continually under
going changes. At present, vitamins
are classed by most authorities about
as follows:
Fat Soluble Vitamin A-Furnishes

ent in: Codliver oil, egg yolk, cream,
whole milk, carrots, yellow corn, beef
fat, liver, butter. yellow corn oil. olive
oil, spinach, alfalfa, yellow turnips,
lettuce and probably all green leaves.
Water Soluble Vitamin B-Prevents
beri-beri, and is anti-neuritic.
Is destroyed by excessive salt or
soda. is present in: Yeast, germ of
wheat, leaves and growing parts of
vegetables, cabbages, spinach, car
rots, nuts, and glandular meats.
Water Soluble Vitamin C-Prevents
scurvy and certain simultaneous
hemorrhages.
Destroyed by heat Except when in
m acid medium), drying or freezing.
Is present in: Oranges, lemons, grape
fruit, tomatoes, sprouting grains or
1egumes, green leaves, celery, lettuce,
spinach, cabbage. etc.
Fat Soluble Vitamin D-Prevents
ricketts,, stabilizes the use of %phosphor-
Gus and calcium, thence very useful
in most bone diseases, such as Pigeon
breast, bowlegs, and swollen joints.
Is found in all yellow or green
foods, especially those listed under
vitamin A, which have been acted up
on by sunlight or the ultra violet ray.
An excess of the ray may, however,
destroy the vitamin. The same eff
feet of this vitamin is also produced
if after these foods are eaten, the
skin of the body is then exposed to
sunlight or ultra violet.

PANAMA n BONDS

PANAMA CANAL BONDS
Eighteen years ago today the United

$50. 900 900 worth Of bonds to COM
plete construction of the Panama
canal.
The total cost Of this gigantic work
vas approximately $3.50. 100000, but
$l33, 000.0 900 Of this was written off to
national defense, since it represented
the cost OF military features which
would not have been necessary to
make the canal merely commercially
valuable to the nation.
The canal was opened for naviga.
ton Aug. IS, 1914. It is . little more
than so land miles long: the minimum
depth Of the channel is II feet and
in parts Of Gatun lake is about 90
feet. A five mile wide strip Of land
thanking the canal was purchased by
the United States from Panama for
$4,000, 600, plus an annual rental Of
$685.
Since the opening Of the canal, tolls
have totaled almost $30.000y000. About
three times as much cargo moves
from the Pacific to the Atlantic as In
the opposite direction. Sugar from
Hawaii and oil from California &C.

The United States is rapidly developing into a city civ
iization-so rapidly that we sometimes wonder how we
could be satisfied with anything else. The things that the
city brings-noise, crowding, constant hurrying and tur-
mol-are almost part of us now, and we are apt to for
get that there is another way to live.
Once In a while. though, something happens to remind
us that the things the city brings may not be as essential
as we usually think.
The other day an unusual couple stopped off in the
city of New York for a brief visit.
They were Corporal Claude B. Tidd, of the Royal Can
adam mounted police. and his pretty wife, a former nurse
in the remote city Of Dawson, Yukon territory.
For the first time since 1915 they had come down to the
land OF cities, en- route for a visit to England. And while
you might imagine that two people who had spent their
last IA years in a tiny village under the arctic circle
would be glad to get to a place like New York, Corporal
Tidd and his wife didn't see it that way at all.
The corporals post has kept him in a village that is
almost unbelievably remote. Only one other white per-
son lives in 1t. Mail arrives and departs once a year.
OFTEN the corporal is away from home for days at a
time, and his wife stays alone in their cabin on such &C.
casions. varying the monotony now and then by taking
= gun and going out to shoot game. They have no radio,
and the town has no movie; there is nothing but an
intending silence and a great majesty Of open, unsettled
wilderness about them.
But they prefer that to New York. In the city. they
say. there is too much noise and too much activity. The
gay frnls Of the metropolis. ordinarily its greatest attrac-
t0o 1g v1SitorS, leave them cold. They speak another
kind Of language. Both Of them are impatiently waiting
for the day when they can start back to their distant
Canadian outpost and plunge into solitude and silence
once more.
Most OF us would be unable to endure a year of life in
the I1dds' village. We are bred to the city civilization.
and we couldn't get along without it. But it is good for
Us to be reminded that it isn't necessarily the best kind
Of life possible.
Solitude and isolation can sometimes do more for the
human spirit than we imagine. They aren't in our line:
We shall never be able to get them, for the cities have us
N their grip But it doesnt hurt US to realize that we're
missing something valuable.
