Black and White Not Colors

White and black are popularity re-
garded as distinct colors. but techni-
cally speaking, they are not colors.
White is a combination of all colors.
Colors are produced by the difference
in the length of light waves. The
longer waves appear to us as red,
while those a little shorter appear
as orange, and so on. The shortest
light waves visible appear to the eye
as violet A red object is one which
absorbs all the light waves except the
red ones; they are reflected back to
the eye and produce the color called
red. An orange-colored object is one
which absorbs all the light waves ex-
cept the orange ones; they are reflect
ed back to the eye and produce the col
or called orange, etc. White consists
of light waves of all lengths-of all
the wave lengths mixed together.
White reflects all or nearly all the
light waves, while black, the absence
of color, absorbs all or nearly all the
light waves.

Pet ShOlU of Girl Scouts
Has Large Attendance,

What was said to be the greatest
troupe of trained pets, Pamahsika's
Trained Pets, showed at the Washington
Auditorium, Friday evening, to a full
house under the auspices of the Girl
Scout Council.
Professor Pamahasika, owner of these
riding dogs, somersaulting monkeys,
bicycling birds and aerial parrots, has
been training birds and animals for
over twenty years and offered per-
Torrance which proved intensely in
teresting.
The exhibition was well received and
generously applauded. The animals
and birds were fine appearing lot and
elected much admiration especially
among the smaller children who at once
laid plans to become possessed of a
monkey or cockatoo or two.
The professor in his display stresses
the value of kindness to animals
throughout his showing.

Fall Season Most
Dangerous of Year.

Late fall and early winter is the most
dangerous season of the year for
motorists using the state highways, ac-
cording to officers of the Minnesota
highway patrol.
In proportion to the number of
vehicles on the roads, more accidents
happen at this season than during any
other part of the year, and consequently
greater caution is required of drivers,
said John P. Arnoldy, chief of the patrol
in warning statement to motorists.
Fog and poor visibility, frost, sleet,
icy spots and slippery wet leaves test
the motorists judgment" Arnoldy said.
Summer speeds cannot be maintained
when winter conditions begin. Every
fall when the first sleet and ice form
on the pavementS, scores of motorists
skid into bitches and are hauled out
for the hospitals and morgues because
they drive too fast.
SLOW down. Be sure your brakes,
lights and other safety devices are in
good condition. Check the motor ex-
hauSt to see that carbon monoxide can
not leak into the body of the car. A
little of this gas may numb the senses
just enough to slow up the body's re-
action to road dangers. In old cars,
especially, it is wise to leave window
slightly open. Above all, when roads
are treacherous, slow down."
In every corner of the state, the
Minnesota highway department is
digging in" for its annual battle with
winters snow storms.
More than LOO miles of snow fence
is practically all in place. More than
200 big v plows are being attached to
the departments heavy duty trucks.
Fifteen tractor plows and 81 rotary
plows are tuned up and ready to force
their way through deep drifts.
Piles of gravel-more than 10000
cubic yeards-are in strategic locations
waiting to be spread on icy pavements.
For mixing with this there is 100 tons
of calcium chloride which helps the
gravel to imbed itself firmly in the ice
and thus provide traction for slipping
| tires
Maintenance workers of the highway
department must keep more than II 300
miles of state highways open. During
storms snow pillow crews work con-
tinuously, night and day, until the roads
are clear.

ROAMING THE WORLD
BY
SHORT-WAVE
go. BY The Arm Chair Traveller s...t

The short-wave listener who has
never tuned-in his receiver during the
early morning hours has not only
missed many of the thrills of radio but
cannot really know the great distances
his instrument will span. For these
early morning hours are full of thrills
and adventure for those willing to fore
20 little of their accustomed sleep.
Because of the great difference in
time, the hours from approximately 3
to or 10 O'Clock in the morning here in
America are those during which we re-
ceive the evening broadcasts from short
wave stations on the other side of the
world Java, Japan, Australia and
other stations in these ATTITUDES are
often received with fine volume.
Java is an especially frequent visitor
in many American homes these days.
PLV at Bandoeng, is one of the most
powerful transmitters in the world,
having power of 10000 watts. 1t will
be found on 9.41 megacycles and trans
mits daily. Recent reports have said
that on some days, signals from this
station have been heard with almost
local volume and with scarcely any
background noise. On Tuesdays, Thurs
days and Saturdays, PIMA, also at Ban
doeng, joins PLY, transmitting on 1894
megacycles with power of 10000
watts.
On Sunday mornings from to 8
o'clock e. S. To stations PIP on II
megacycles and PMN on 1925 mega
cycles are also on the air and have been
reported in this country. YDA, the
"old reliable of last winter is not due
to take the air on its GOA megacycle
frequency for few weeks but will un-
doubtedly furnish short-wave listeners
with many thrill again this winter.
Java, though comparatively a small
island, is said to have more short-wave
stations for its population than any
other country in the world. AT present,
76 stations are in cooperation using
frequencies all the way from 10 to IL
megacycles. Many of these beam their
transmissions toward America by means
of directional antennae.

Safety Meeting Set
For Today in Duluth.

County Attorney Thomas Naylor sent
out letters on Friday to all mayors and
council presidents of ST. Louis County
communities urging them to attend or
send representatives to a countrywide
safety conference for today at the
court house.
The conference was called to map an
educational program to arouse the
citizenry to the seriousness of motor
vehicle accidents on streets and high
ways in the county, Mr.. Naylor said
The community representatives, police
chiefs and safety leaders will meet with
the county commissioners at $50 this
afternoon to discuss ways in which the
individual citizen can assist law en-
forcement officers in curbing accidents.

TO THE PEOPLE OF ELY.
tBy a Man without a soul.)

(By Man without SOul)
Have you stood on the shore of Shagawa
Lake,
AS Sol sunk down to rest?
Have you seen the path of gold that
led,
Across its placid breast?
Like the path that leads to the better
land,
When we have finished Life's little
span.
Did it raise in your Soul that living
fire,
That path of the great behest?
Did the bounding love of grand desire,
Placed there by Divine bequest?
Break forth in praise to the Artist
Divine,
That could make CT a lake a joy
sublime.
Thanks loving Father for such gift,
To see Thee as Thou art;
Portrayed in the irridescent CLEAN,
Of a glorious sunsets part;
And as my mind through its beauty
trod,
There, I beheld the Lamb of Godi

Cancer Sufferers Warned
Against Belief in "Cures."

A new cancer cure, so-called, is re-
ceiving newspaper publicity in Canada
these days.
Whether this cure has any real merit
seems doubtful to American medical
experts, but very little information
about it has been given, either to the
Canadian medical profession or to the
profession in the United States, accord
ing to bulletin issued by the Public
Health Education Committee of the
Minnesota Medical Association.
The fact that already hundreds of
cancer sufferers have been attracted to
the home town OF the originator of this
treatment by the premature newspaper
publicity is pointed out in the bulletin
as the most unfortunate result of such
prem ture announcements. These
people are more than likely to be
doomed to disappointment
"a cure for any disease cannot be an
nounced as a cure until it has been
tried out successfully on a large number
Of cases and until the same results
have been achieved by other indie
pendent investigators" according to this
bulletin.
When conscientious medical scien-
fist does discover cure, he does not
report it first to the public but to his
medical colleagues. He tells other in
veStigators all about it and invites them
to check his results. When there is
no doubt at all as to the worth of his
contribution, then he will probably be
willing to tell the public about it, but
not before.
1t is not impossible, of course for
worthwhile discoveries to come through
irregular channels. The fact is, they
seldom do

In June, 1884, the case was again
argued in the supreme court OF
Montana and the supreme court up
held the contention OF the Kesun.
This was again taken to the q. s.
supreme court on a writ of certio-
rari and It was again argued on
January IL, 1885. On Feb. the
supreme court handed down its
decision which finally approves the
attachment of the liberty bonds to
the full extent OF the judgment of
the Kesun.
Beldon & DeKalb Of Lewistown,
attorneys for the Kesun, established
the record OF having won each time
in four appearances before the
supreme court, being twice upheld
and two times reversing the decision
of a lower court.

legal battle ragged as the Iowa
official tried to remove the bonds
to Iowa to be there distributed
eQuitalbly to all creditors OF the
company.
The case was heard in the dis
trict court of Cascade county on
two separate occasions and finally
was appealed to the supreme court
of Montana, which again upheld
the Kesun. The Iowa official then
appealed to the United States su-

something of recoverable OIL If he buys 10 of the
oil under given tract he must know that when the
recoverable oil has been taken from the ground that
he will have substantial profit If he pays ST. 900
for 1000 worth of OIL he is foolish But if he pays
500 for $1,000 worth of oil, he has made the kind
of profit that makes great personal fortunes.
So we have two ways of looking into VALUES
First of ALL each investor takes his pencil and figures
the necessary recovery per acre to pay him profit
If this checks out satisfactorily he next enquiries:
What is the operators investment"
In other words, the royalty investor knows what
his return will be if the operator GETS BACK HIS
COST OF DRILLING While an operator is get
ting back $4,000 of drilling cost he is paying one
eighth of that sum to royalty owners.
If the investor can see his way to make profit
his royalty investment while the operator is get
ting back his money it apparent that if the oper
ator makes ANY money, the investor is due to make
a LOT of money.
The further question arises:
chow CAN l MAKE MONEY IN ROY
ALTIES WHEN l HAVE ONLY A LITTLE
TO INVEST?
The answer is: THE RATE OF RETURN
IS EXACTLY THE SAME ON THE ENTIRE
LANDOWNERS SHARE OR A HUNDREDTH
PART OF THE LANDOWNERS SHARE"
The landowners share of the oil under given
tract may be worth 100000 to illustrate. The man
who could afford to buy HALF the landowners
ONE man, FIFTY divided the cost equally and
bought half of the landowners share Together
they would receive $4,000. Each one would actl1-
ally receive 1000, Whether each one had HUN
DREDTH interest or a HALF interest, the RATE
OF RETURN is EXACTLY THE SAME.
No matter how much money an investor may
have, he is foolish to put all his money into
royalty, or even large sum in any royalty, for
the LAW OF AVERAGES works overtime in the
oil industry. He figures a profit from any
investment he may make IF one of his investments
covers a Baker farm or Byrne farm or other
sensational production, his PROFIT may turn into
a FORTUNE. But he never bases his investment
the expectation of the sensational for nine chances
out of ten he will be disappointed just as the man who
buys gold at $50 may be disappointed even though
some say that gold may go to Sal.
concrete example of the methods whereby
person can figure the value of royalty, both the
basis of probable recovery per acre and on the
basis of the operators investment is contained in this
weeks publication going out to members of this
organization. We only wish that this publication
could go into the hands of every royalty investor in
the United States. It would point the way to for
tunes in not only Montana royalty investments but
in ALL royalty investments.
This publication viii be mailed to those who
request it.
