In connection with the motion for
second reading Of the children and
youths employment bill, Sorensen
centered his attack on the allega-
ton that theatrical children who
are still relatively innocent are
brought into an atmosphere which,
while it may be appropriate for So
phistica'ed adults, is entirely foreign
to the minds Of youths"
Stating that the bill would pro-
hibit the employment of children
under 10, except those already
working, Sorensen said the bill was

his own childhood.

revenge" he said.
He eventually withdrew the meas

 There was at first some trouble regarding a crew, owing to sani- tary conditions on the dirigible, in- surance and other factors, but these have been overcome, it is learned, and plans are now going ahead for the flight.

CIVILIZATION WAS BUILT ON
WHEAT

Although wheat's original home IS
not known exactly. it was probably q
native OF western Asia. It is difficult
to find any authentic Information
about the true beginning Of this val
liable and most important cereal be-
cause it was cultivated long before
recorded history or even historical
tradition. Even the oldest Of monu-
meuts show that wheat must have
been an important article Of food be-
fore they were constructed.
The Greeks had a legend that the
Demeter or Ceres presented It to
them as a divine gift. Among the
Chinese it is also held to be a direct
gift from an obliging heaven. We
have found evidence III the shape of
charred leaves that it vas known rs
early as the stone age by some Of the
lake dwellers in Switzerland. and the
Chinese we're known 10 be cultivating
it 5000 years before the Christian
era. Wheat was unknown in America
before the coming of the Spaniards.
1t is interesting to note while
studying the romance of wheat that
white flour is not q modern discOv.
cry. The sitting away of the outside
of the grain was practiced during the
more prosperous years Of the Greeks
and Romans. Even the Gauls used a
bolter made OF woven horsehair. The
sleeves of Spain were made of flax.
while the Egyptians used screens
made of papyrus and rushes. The
oldest grinders. of course, were mems
own molars, and sone of the early
skulls show the grinding teeth worn
down as though they bad actually
been used to grind hard grain for a
long period. However. the grinding
or milling goes bac..- beyond history.
1t has written its own history in the
smooth grinding stones which We
have found. They are romantic and
beautiful reminders of q time when
mans tools we're crude-of a people
that are gone, though their implc-
ments remain. 1t is as though man
learned to take up a rock and grind
his grain before he learned to take
his pen in hand ind write.
The first special grinder was a hol-
low stone upon which the grain was
placed and rubbed or pounded by an
other smaller stone held in the hand.
The next improvement was to put two
round stones together with a hole in
the upper one through which the
grain could be dropped in. BY means
OF a stick or iron handle. the uppee
stone was revolved upon the bottom

by tradition. Even the most enlightened voter has q
tendency to place too much emphasis on a label. When
a political campaign comes along we hesitate to think
for ourselves.
The support Thomas is getting indicates q breaking
OF this custom. The bulk Of his votes will come from,
people who arc not socialists and who has no especial
sympathy with socialist doctrines.
That means that people are learning to disregard
labels. TO ignore traditions. to do a little thinking for
themselves. He will be getting a big vote, not because
hc IS a Socialist, but in spite CT that fact.
And that, VIC repeat, is a healthy indication.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
DELAYED Walking

Question: Mrs. O. l.. F. writes: MY
baby of a year and four months does
not walk. while my other children
walked at fourteen months. He can
stand alone and walks around chairs
or other objects. He eats and sleeps
well.
Answer: Do not worry too much
about your child not walking. No
doubt he is just a little late in learn
ing. as is often the case. AS he is
able to walk around chairs, and eats
and sleeps we'll. l feel quite sure there
can be nothing organically wrong
with him. Keep him on a we'll bal
anced diet. instructions for which I
will be glad to send you.
Grapejuice
Question: Mrs. K. G.. writes: II
would like to know if grapejuice is
harmful to people having high blood
pressure. I am very fond of it. bu:
having high blood pressure would like
to be sure whether or not I should
drink it,"
Answer: Grapejuicc is an excellent
food drink and when used should be
taken in place of a meal or between
meals, but not in addition to an ordi-
nary meal. Those with a tendency
to high blood pressure should use
~grapejuice to which no sugar has
been added.
Dry Skin
Question: NJ. w. asks: rs Excess
sive dryness Of the skin due to a de-
ficiency in the thyroid gland. What
IS this deficiency. and is there a cure
for it at ALP"
Answer: Dryncss of the skin would
not necessarily indicate a deficiency
OF the thyroid which could only be
determined after metabolism tests.
You can supply the lack Of natural
oil somewhat by rubbing olive oil on
the skin after bathing and the use Of
more fats i'll the diet. It would be
impossible to determine the real
trouble from the information given in
your letter. and a thorough examina-
ton would probably be necessary.

Editorial Comment
knowledge as a Basis for Legislation
Grand Forks Herald

@ AAso
Mr.. Grundy OF Pennsylvania. on thinking the matter
over. is inclined to approve the course of Senator Bing-
ham in employing an officer of the Connecticut Manu-
facturcrs' association as his secretary pro tenn and thus
giving him access to senate committee meetings which
were supposed to be secret. Senator Bingham admits
that his course i'll this matter was probably a mistake.
but that. of course. does not concern Mr.. Grundy. Neither
Is he influenced BY the fact that there is evidence in
the senate Of strong disapproval of Senator Binghams
action, and that this sentiment Is quite strongly mani
tested throughout the country.
All of the major acts Of government bear more Or
less directly on the business OF private citizens. Just
now it IS the tariH that is in the limclighl. but 1t makes
no difference whether the subject be tariff, or taxation.
or banking laws, or agriculture. or waterways. or almost
any other subject that one can name. It Is impossible
for the government to deal with that subject without
affecting the interests OF q great many people. and inter-
est is SO diversified that q given course will affect one
group bcneficially and another adversely. The theory
that government should seek the greatest good for the
greatest number Is sound. with the proviso that even In
seeking that greatest good the minority Is not deprived
OF its essential rights.
Much Of our legislation Is. or ought to be, based on
expert knowledge Of the activities that are likely to be
affected BY ". II our legislators are not Themselves
specialists. they must obtain information from some
source. and IT is obvious that II an intelligent under
standing OF the subject Is to be reached. tho legislator
must. in addition to his own study Of theories. seek In.
formation from those who are themselves familiar with
the subject BY actual experience.
Fer this reason conversational committees invite inter.
ested persons to present their views on pending legisla-
ton. In o similar way the individual member Of con-
grsss nay consult 1auat,v with persons specially interested IS .
rescnts q state largely devoted to manufacturing. It Is as
proper for him to consult with the representative Of q
manufacturers organization Of his state as to the best
means Of obtaining for his constituents the kind Of
tariff that they believe will be advantageous to them
as 1t Is for . senator from fyorti, Dakota "a consult with
the representative OF c farm organization as to the best
means to effect legislation which will improve the price
Of wheat. There Is no difference.
The offense Of Senator Bingham Is not in consulting
with q manufacturer representative. but In the In
direct and apparently secretivc methods employed In
giving that gent access to matters from which the gen.
cral public was excluded. Mr.. Bingham's action Is open
to the Interpretation that he wished to obtain for his
constituents. or some of them. savors to which they
were not entitled. and to use Legitimate means IN
doing 50.
