A Scotch physician named James
Lind worte q book about scurvy in
1857, in which he pointed out that
the disease appeared when persons
were deprived Of all fresh raw
vegetables and fruits. Today it is
definitely demonstrated that the
giving Of appropriate amounts Of
fresh orange juice, tomato juice, or
even the juices Of turnips or pota-
toes will prevent this disease in in
fants. It Is particularly important
that such fresh fruit juices be given
when the baby IS fed largely on pas
teurized cows milk.
d.. E. v. McCollum points out that
there has been q growing tendency
in recent times for people to live more
and more on bread. cooked meats,
canned foods md otherwise sophisti-
Gated and refined food preparations.
This tendency is unfortunate because
such foods do not provide sufficient.
amounts Of vitamin G.
Tomatoes, celery. carrots, raw cab
bage. lettuce. watercress and any
other vegetables that can be eaten
raw are important in providing this
substance to the diet. When the ma
terials are cooked and exposed to the
air at the same time, the vitamin Is
destroyed and must be provided in
some other manner.

Overproduction affects oil just as
1t disturhs distribution of all kinds
Of agricultural products, but the rem
edy to curtal surplus in oil is much
more simple than on farms, where
great supplies Of foodstuffs continue
to pile up.
In Oklahoma, the militia and mar
tial law in the oil-producing centers
brought the price of oil to a small
profit basis. Texas took drastic steps
to revive q demoralized industry and
to prevent great waste of a natural
resource.
Kansas and California are con-
templating steps to conserve their oil
supply. These states feel keenly the

is speeding up its oil production and
crowding Venezuela for second place
in oil production. Wells bordering

little Blue Goose"

Eskimos of Aklavik, Alaska, named
Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh the Little
Blue Goose" It vas the highest
compliment at the command OF their
limited vocabulary. For it is the blue
goose which flies over many seas and
many lands. 1t Is seen on the Baf-
fin Islands in summer but at the first
hint of fall wings it's way far to the
south where the warm waters flow.
The career OF Lindbergh and his
distinguished wife holds the nations
interest. Their arrival In Toxic again
focuses world attention upon this in
~teresting pair, both modest and shy
in demeanor but withal efficient mes
sangers of good will from their home
land to the country of the Niponese.
Probably few Of the blue geese so
highly regarded by the Eskimos OF
the cold north have flown as far as
MIR. and Mrs. Lindbergh. "Lindy"
covered as high as 10000 miles In IL
months and the Little Blue Goose"
has many thousands of miles in the
air to her credit.
In many ways the abilities Of Mrs.
Lindbergh are obscured by the fame
of her husband, but she is an i'm
portant member of the partnership.
After nine hours Of instruction, she
took her first Solo flight. A most apt
pupil. Later she obtained a pilots
and elders license. She has earned
for herself a name in a%eronautics.

1T is roughly estimated that

could have been avoided had the

ably the greatest being in the

The CAPITOL Architect
VALLEY City Times-R Record

The Capitol Commission. whose
duty it is to select an architect to
build the new two million dollar build
ing as provided for by legislative &C
ton, is having a heck of a time Sc
lecting the architect to do the job.
There seems to be a wide difference
of opinion as to whether 1t would be
the right thing to do to select an ar
chitect of nationwide recognized abil-
ity or take a chance on one OF the
states own architects. Naturally all
things being considered. we would like
to see a local man selected, II one can
be secured that will fill the bill effi-
GENTLY and we'll, but in the building
Of that state capitol care must be
taken to secure the very best in ar
I, chitectural supervision, and If the
commission is not able to get a man
here then it is perfectly proper to go
outside.
OF course it is a mighty nice senti-
ment to send out to employ home tai
ent-the proper thing to do If posi-
ble-but we do not want the building
built in a slip-shod manner just for
the sake Of employing q local archi-
tect. Too often this has been done.
Building a two million dollar build
ing is quite a job, yet there is no rea-
son why North Dakota should not
have a capable architect living with
in the borders of the state. Surely a
trouble being that as q rule archi-
tect in his work can reside here just
as well as elsewhere-the only
trouble being that as a rule u achi-
tects have had no experience in
building a building amounting into
the millions of dollars. We heard an
argument last night on the PROPOSE
ton and M said: 1.-THE only differ
ence is that it is a bigger building
the work is about the same"
Well, the commission is being be-
sieged by legislators from Grand
Forks county and other places to Sc
lect a North Dakota man. and prob
ably the matter will get a lot Of air
ing before the matter Is finally de-
cided. What the taxpayers want and
must have is a building worthy Of
the state, built well and properly de.
signed. They will be satisfied with
no unake-shift and they do not want
any alibis after the building has beer
erected.

Timely Warning

Willie IlO IldIlIl CdlA COIAAV Va VAC UN
monition issued recently by Nelson
Sauvain of the Board of Administra-
ticn, much good may result. 1t Is a
time now when economy must. be
practiced in public as well as private
affairs and there has been much crit
icism of late relative to waste In The
state institutions of higher education.
His inference that there may -
snobbery and the creation Of a false
aristocracy based on something else
than an "aristocracy of brains" may
or may not hit at fraternity life
which on some campuses in North
Dakota has been over-emphasized.
MIR. Sauvain does not elaborate in his
letter to the heads of the various edu-
cational institutions, but n can
read between the lines.
It is true that parents are making a
great sacrifice to send their sons and
daughters to school and the response
BILE heads addressed in the Sauvatn
letter should see that the students
are not led into unwise expenditures
so that they can keep up with the
social parade.
There Is a good and a bad side to
fraternity life On the campus. III
many instances the environment OF
fraternity or sorority life helps rather
than retards student development. It
it all too true that many students ul-
fit for such campus activity fall by
the wayside and practice extravaganza
which often means a sudden termina-
ton of college careers.
Of course in calling attention TO
college snobbery, must differenti-
ate between those who just go to col
lege and those who go to learn.
Many go for the sports. the social side
Of college life and for no other rea-
son. AS one educator has pointed out
those who go to satisfy a thirst for
knowledge will not let anything di-
vert them.
Thus then, the way out is not an
abolition Of fraternity life. It is
rather better control and more eff
cient supervision. Many a campus is
in dire need of characterization. There
is too much snobbery and too marv
cliques. But as one writer has well
said, it is no credit to any institution
to turn out mere babes in the woods"
His conclusions are.
If any man Or woman is help
less before the problems of sex,
alcohol and automobiles upon
graduation this is nothing for any
college to be proud of, no matter
what the prowess of that indi-
vidual with respect to the binomial
theorem or the hortatory sub
junctive.
For the few-but we may hope
ever growing number-who go to
college to learn something we can
have institutions we'll adapted for
this specific purpose. Such stu
dents will not be seriously dis
tracted by men. women, gin or
cars.
1.-THE way out is not through
abolishing the perplexing prob
leps but through the candid, hon.
est and rational differentiation Of
Jul institutions of higher learn
ing. But it will be hard for us to
surrender our educational bluff
and pretense to such a degree as
would be essential to accomplish
this reform"
