need to have called to our attention
rather frequently.
The growing completely Of the
world has placed a great responsible
ity on the shoulders of the average
citizen. A century or more ago a
nation could get along very nicely II
all hands left the understanding and
direction Of things to q small, spe-
cialized group at the top. The great
mass Of people never bothered about
any problems not directly connected
with the events Of daily life-and the
system worked out fairly well.
But those days are gone forever.
We must not only learn all We can
about the ms and outs of the daily
Job; we must, whether we like it or
not. become informed about the en-
tire world. because things that hap
pen in far-away places on the other
side Of the globe can affect us in
profound and intimate way.
It Is often said that we need wise
leadership in these complicated times.
That is quite true; but wise leader
ship is powerless unless those whom
1t Is to lead know what it is all about.
Humanity has seldom had quite as
many chances to go rushing down
steep place into the sea as it has to-
lay. The danger won't be avoided
unless we of the rank and file keep
mentally abreast of the times.

WI! slI;a3!

New York, Feb. SIN the mid
Forties on Broadway stands young
gent wearing upon his back sign
that informs the passing millions
that they must have vitamins for
health"
He wears most bizarre costume to
catch the eye. Once this is achieved,
the sandwich sign Of cafe tells
about the vitamin contents Of its
meals.
But what's ironic about all this is
that In order to eat and get food with
or without vitaminS. this ballyhoo-
man of caloric content had to take
this Job standing on a curbstone.
He hadn't had steady work In
months. He had grabbed food in
breadlines, and the vitamin measure
Of this was highly questionable. So
he's temporarily grateful to vitamins;
otherwise, he might be hungry.

Removing the State Capital
Devils Lake JOurnan

Again the question of removal of
the state capital from Bismarck to
jamestown Is commanding the atten-
ton of the people Of the state, and
again Is heard on all sides strong op-
position to such removal.
It would prove q tremendous drain
on the taxpayers pocketbook If such
removal should take place. Moreover
what would become of the two hun
dred or SO homes owned in Bismarck
by state employees? Surely II the cap
ital were moved these homes would
prove worthless, because Bismarck Is
really built around the capitol, and
were 1t moved the people would find
themselves in the position Of killing
one city in the state merely to build
up another.
The state has many thousands Of
dollars invested IN Bismarck. It has
been said with some authority that
the removal Of the capital to James
town weuld cost the state over one
million dollars, and the taxpayers Of
the state should be In no frame Of
mind ct this time to dig into their
| pockets in taxation to meet this ire
nendous bill.
i has taken the state years to build
q city for state capital purposes. It
Is no time now to put 1t on wheels"
20 to speak, and move it about every
time some other city takes a notion
that II should have it, and this is ex-
actly what would happen were James
town successful IN Its fight for the
removal.
A. I matter Of fact, the people
should not vote on the removal pro-
posal, and steps should be taken Inn
mediately to have the petitions call
ing for the vote recalled.

Health Head Should
Draw Undertaken Rule

Rules governing undertakers should
! be formulated by the State Health
department rather than the state
Board of Embalmers, according to an
opinion by Attorney General Morris.
The opinion was furnished to Dr..
A. A. Whittemore, state health officer,
In connection with rules and regula-
tons Of the State Board Of Embalmers
submitted to the Attorney General by
Dr.. Whittemore.
Morris ruled that provisions relat-
ing to undertakers should be stricken
from the regulations Of the Board Of
E,nbalmers on the ground that they
appear to be beyond the authority
and jurisdiction Of that board.
The attorney general held that "the
state Board Of Embalmers has no
jurisdiction over any persons other
than the embalmers and that no IL
cense may be issued to nor fec re-
Quired Of undertakes as defined in
your regulations"
This does not mean, however
Morris added, that no supervision
whatever may be exercised over UNI
dertakers."

InnOcuOuS Exploring

One Of our oldest illusions crashed
with a fearful thud the other day
when DR.. Roy Chapman Andrews
who collects dinosaur eggs and such
like in the Cobb desert, told an
audience In New York that the ex-
plorer who comes back from the ends
Of the earth with wild tale of great
dangers met and surmounted is prob
ably pretty poor sort of explorer.
Modern equipment, Dr. Andrews
explained, has taken most of the risk
out of the explorers job. A really
competent explorer, thus, can go
where he wants to go and see what
he wants to see without having
more than a very few moments of
real danger.
"Hardships and adventures" he
added, "are nuisances to explorers. !"
DR.. Andrews ought to know, If any,
one does. But it really seems too
bad. If one can't find hair-raising
adventure by going exploring. what is
this world coming to, anyhow?

Old Saws But Good Teeth

Old Saws But Good Teeth
Somebody who studied the proverbs
and sayings Of many different nations
discovered that large proportion of
these old notices are OH the subject
OF thrift. "Penny-wise and pound
foolish" Burning the candle at both
ends" ITO kill the goose that lays
the golden egg'-you can think Of
dozens Of them. And you'll find them
in all languages. Now these old say
ings arose back In ancient days and
have become familiar to us all be-
cause. they have been used and quoted
so many millions of times. And they
clearly show that our ancestors paid
q good deal Of attention to thrift
even though all their circumstances
and standards Of living were differ
ent from those of today. Thrift seems
to be a deeply rooted habit in lot
Of us.
It is a significant thing, therefore,
that the life insurance men OF the
Missouri Slope, who met here re-
Gently and discussed their business,
commended that they really are agen-
cies for policy of constructive thrift
in every family.
Their view of themselves is that
they are giving modern application
to all Of the sage sayings which we
learned when children; that they are
promoting constructive thrift among
the people who buy life insurance
policies.
Inevitably, they call attention to the
uncertainties of life and the prospec-
tive rainy day. BY so doing they
emphasize the need for thrift regard.
less of whether their argument ac-
Quires a new risk for the company
they represent. They know that by
selling thrift they are promoting their
business and they employ the wise old |
saws with still sound teeth to help
them.

seen previously to such diseases as
| influenza, measles, scarlet fever, ana
the most acute infectious diseases.
There has been much argument as
! to whether or not the common cold is
! in any way concerned BY changes IN
temperature. psychologists who
keep track Of the incidence OF dis
ease find that the common cold Is tar
more frequent during the changeable
weather in spring and early winter
than at other seasons. One OF the
statisticians Of large life insurance
company found that q sudden drop Of
10 degrees in the temperature brought
an increase Of 18 colds per week
among 6700 employees in the office.
Vast numbers Of people who are
fairly good observers Of their own
condition are convinced that their
colds begin when there IS some sud-
den strain on their heat regulating
mechanism. An investigation made by
Professor E. o. Jordan OF the Uni
versity Of Chicago indicated that 80
per cent Of colds occur at q time
when there Is less ventilation both in
public and In private dwellings and q
greater tendency to overcrowding.
