When several score Members
Of the House started for New
York and West Point recently
on a congressional investigation
tour Of Manhattan and the

chips and began to engage in
the well-known game Of poker.
A certain Kentucky Member
won $35.
The other participants, some
what disgruntled, proceeded to

Pavement Patter

When the ponies ran at
Bowie the other day, former
Vice President Charles Curtis,
arch Republican, sat in his reg
ular box, while in the next box
was Steve Early of the White
House Secretariat, equally arch
Democrat; there was no record
OF which one selected the
most winners. Mrs. Edward c.
Eicher, wife Of Representative
Eicher Of Iowa, and Mrs. Lloyd
Thurston, wife of Representa-
tive Thurston, also Of iowa,
were called home to that State
recently because Of illness in
their families, but Mrs. Eicher
is on the way back to Wash
ington. Betsy Watkins, one of
the nine candidates for the
title Of queen Of the University
Fiesta, formerly termed the ALL
University Carnival, for COL
legeS Of the city, was seen
downtown shopping the other
day. Senator Pat Harrison's
two daughters, Katherine and
Mariana, the latter now Mrs.
James w. Cummings, jr., were
seen at the races not long ago.
And on the same day Helen
and Jane Tewksbury made re-
peated trips to the cashiers
cage after picking the winners
in the afternoon jogs. .Ade-
laide Woodley, one of those
rather tall girls with plenty of
personality, seems to be much
pleased these days following her
election as president of that

A Hot Yarn

In one of the many stores
Of group of chain drug stores,
a soda fountain boy spilled
boiling coffee on himself the

Before his body or temper
had an opportunity to cool, one
Of those crochety old women
entered the store.
Said the clerk:
MADAM, may I help yOu?"
She piped:
81 was going to get some
thing to eat, but after seeing
how dirty your coat and apron
are 1 don't believe I will buy!"
The clerk, still hot, sneered:
Really I wasn't going to
give you the coat and apron to
eat, anyhOw!"
Whereupon the WON a n
walked out!

It's unnecessary to have regular
pain, or even any discomfort at
such a time. That's true, and it's
just too bad for the girl who does
not realize it. All you have to do
is this:
Watch the calendar. Just before
your time, take Midol tablet and
drink a glass of water, and you may
escape the expected pain entirely.
If not, a second tablet should relieve
it in seven to ten minutes. That is
how rapidly this remedy works!

Midol relieves even those who have
always had a difficult time. Relief
is such that two tablets should see
you through the worst day. Yet

injurious. They're as harmless as the
aspirin you take for an ordinary
headache. But don't be fooled by
ordinary pain tablets offered as q
specific for calendar pain. MidoI

A special officer for the Morgan line
found the internal machine late yes

broke the connections with the bat

worst FEED, seed
SHORTAGE FACING
BURLE|GH FARMERS
1ncomplete Reports Of Survey
Show Absolutely No Seed
in Some Townships

The most critical feed shortage in
the history Of the county IS in pros
pect for Burleigh farmers this winter,
Martin Altenberg, assistant extension
agent, said Friday.
Altenberg made his observations
after scanning Incomplete reports Of
feed and seed survey conducted by
members Of township boards during
the past week in connection with q
statewide project being carried on to
determine the amount Of federal aid
that will be necessary to winter cattle
herds and to plant the spring crop.
Reports from several Of the Is town.
ships, that already have turned in to
the county agent indicate that several
Of the local subdivisions will be with
out single bushel Of seed when plant
ing time rolls around. All townships
report an acute shortage.
Townships In sections Of the county
which received some rain are expect
ed to show enough feed to winter the
herds, which have been greatly re-
duced by the federal purchasing pro-
gram, although the early reports In.
dtcated scarcely enough feed to last
through the fall months.
Farmers reported that the water
supply will be enough to carry the
herds through the winter. Occasional
wells are reported as running dry but
the water situation Is still not Of an
acute nature. the extension agent
said.
A clearing house" of information,
relative to the seed and feed situation,
has been set up by the federal gov
eminent in an effort to secure accur-
ate information that will be used as q
guide In the movement Of seed and
feed into the drouth areas.
Already the FERA has purchased
large quantities Of hay and straw
which will be sold to farmers.
The survey being conducted will give
information as to the number Of head
Of livestock that must be fed during
the winter months, the amount Of feed
on hand, the amount of seed avail
able for planting next spring and the
condition Of the water supply.
