We Need It, Too

Inauguration OF airmail service between st. Paul and
Winnipeg, via Fargo and Grand Forks, again calls atten-
ton TO Bisnarck's need for a similar service.
In many respects the program for development of the
st. Paul Winnipeg line is Of outstanding Importance to
similar enterprises which the future may develop in this
area. 1t will provide data and experience which will be
valuable as airmail lines are extended through the north
west. Conditions are different here than in some other
parts of the country and the new line is operating in
an area farther north than most others designed to fly
OH a regular schedule.
Throughout the country as a whole airmail has come
to be an accepted thing. The slogan 1.-THE mail must
go through is the same with the vikings of the air as
it was In pony express days. But conditions may prove
to be a little different in this latitude, particularly dur
ing the winter.
If they are overcome without too much cost, Bismarck
may expect to find itself on an air1nail line as soon as
the prospective business warrants it. At any rate, the
st. Paul Winnipeg development puts us hours nearer to
the population centers east Of us and gives us new hope
that the roar Of the mail plane may soon be heard
regularly over Bismarck.
There is no doubt that we need such service. It would
be a boon to the business of this community.

Education Goes Modern

How President Robert Maynard Hutchins of Chicago
university has modernized education at that institution
is drawing the attention of persons interested in more
efficiency in our higher institutions of learning.
One commentator says: The Fairgrounds Of Amer
ica-the colleges and universities reserved for the pleas
ures of youth in this country, wherein they may dwell
in luxury for four years, become expert drinkers and
dancers and dilettantes in the grand m~anner-these
country clubs of the educational world are abou. to be
done over SO that any fellow with the strange haliucina-
ton that he would like to go to school to learn some
thing may now be permitted to do so.
"One of the most forward steps in education in this
country has just been taken the studious person
who wishes to apply himself to research or a perusal
of the arts will now be permitted to go ahead as fast
as possible and even be given a degree at the end OF
a year if he can do the four years work in that time.
president Hutchins has brought freedom to education
and if this little loating game has been spoiled you can
blame him"
On the whole this constitutes rather a severe indict-
ment of the average American college or university.
The parents. on the farm or elsewhere, who are strug
Cling and sacrificing daily to keep a son or daughter in
college, will read with dismay references to such IN
situations as country clubs and expert drinkers and
cancers and %dilettantes in the grand manner They
will wonder If. after all, they have been deceived as to
what goes on in our universities and If their money is
being we'll invested.
The answer to the individual problem depends, of
course, on the individual parents and the individual
child. In the great majority of cases the childs chances
for success are materially improved by his contact with
the college curriculum. Standards usually are high
enough to eliminate the real laggard before he goes very
far. And the lad or lass who falls by the wayside
usually would have fallen had he or she remained at
home.
The innovation at Chicago. however. is worth atten-
ton from persons other than those who take occasion
to condemn the over-socialized atmosphere of our COL
leres. The new plan makes the college more adaptable
to the needs Of the average student. The brilliant stu
dent who can master things quickly is permitted to do SO.
His duller fellow is not embarrassed by stiff competi-
ton. Each one gets the treatment which Is best suited
to his ability and temperament.
This is an advance, for II there is one indictment which
may be honestly drawn against colleges It IS the charge
that their product Is too standardized.
~. college machinery is designed, too often, to turn
o,t graduates on the same basis that Detroit turns out

returning a year later.
He then Immediately began the ex-
ploration of the Arkansas river, which
he assembled to Pueblo, Colo. After
discovering Pixies Peak he visited the
site of the present town of Leadville.
He was promoted to the rank of

, DESIRABLE MENTAL OUTLOOK

Have YOU ever envied a person VINO
is popular, happy, with not a worry
in the world? Most people nave.
They consider such a mental state
| the result Of luck and fail to see thai
it is simply the result Of good mental
habits. The same people are VIKING
to admit that to have clean TEEN u
Is important to form the habit o.
brushing them; since once the haolt
of cleaning the teeth is formed, one
has clean teeth without worrying
+! much about it. It is the same with
our mental habits. If we wish to have
the emotions which make us hopetul
and happy it is important that we
form the habit of %cultivating them.
We like to think that our emotions
are born in us, and we may accept
any undesirable emotions or traits OF
mind, even though they cause us the
keenest suffering because we think
they cannot be changed. It is posi-
BILE to change undesirable mental ha-
bits by training u minds away from
! dwelling on unpleasant things. We
| should learn how to substitute desir-
able emotions for those which we
realize are not so desirable. If we
do this we will have done q great deal
toward being more cheerful, KIND,
tolerant and happy.
There are people who always re-
main con:ented and emotipnally
stable. You can be the same II you
train your mind to more positive ways
Of thinking. Every psychologist real
ICES that there are good mental habits
and bad mental habits. In the last
group are such things as temper tan
trums. having the blues. self con-
seriousness, anxiety, worry, in%feriority
and superiority completes and other
mental attitudes which make the per-
son who has them profoundly UNI
happy at times. In an attempt to
compensate for such inner turmoil a
person with poor mental habits often
attributes his emotional state to the
behavior of some person around him,
and in many cases homes, marriages,
friendships and businesses are wreck
ed because one does not know the
simplest rules of mental hygiene.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Nerve Exhaustion
Question: A. D. K. asks: How long
does it take to overcome nerve ex-
haustion. and what is the treatment?
Do YOU think ~chiropractlc treatments
help?"
Answer: Nerve exhaustion may &C.
cur with one who uses up a great deal
of mental energy through work,
worry. or any of the destructive emo
tons. I do not believe, however, that
complete exhaustion ever develops
except with one who is in a highly
toxic state, and the cure would de-
pend upon the removal of the under
living toxins. This, OF course, varies,
according to the case. Chiropractic
treatments would certainly be of
great help in the patients recovery
Of proper nerve tone.
Question: r. F. asks: would the
eating of whole flaxseed with cereals
at breakfast have the tendency to
cure constipation?"
Answer: The use OF 1laXSeeQ WIN
cereals has a tendency to produce
more bowel movements, but this
would not necessarily permanently
cure constipation, as the cause OF
chronic constipation may be paralysis
or kinking of the bowels, improper
diet, lack of exercise, or neglect in
! regularity of going to the toilet. Flax
seed is a good temporary remedy to
be used until the causes are correct
ell.
Migraine
Question: x. Y. z. asks: "Will
YOU kindly explain in what way Mi
graine headache differs from any
| other?"
Answer: A periodic headache us
ually occurring on M side of the
head is what is called by physicians
= migraine headache. Such head
aches will sometimes occur at exactly
the same time cath week and are
thought to be due in a large measure
to nervous disturbances. Some psy-
biologists believe that the cause is
entirely mental, but my opinion is
that the patient must first be in a
highly toxic state before mental dis
turbances will produce these periodi-
cal headaches.
