TlIIS Ktatciiifiit .by I'mnicr Iii-iiiml :f France lit the historic
BiffliiiiK f the Lotinrno treaty in London today, perfectly
epitomizes the spirit of an enlightened patriotism, which after so
ninny years of frustration, ' lias - tit last terminated in a Keimm
covenant o peace for western Kurope.
Chancellor Luther remains a good German. 1'reinier Briand
lemuins. a good .Frenchman. J'rtie to themselves and loyal to their
countries, they join as good Europcnhs, in a solemn pact to pre-;
serve the pence and as fur as it
remove the menace of another
Here one finds neither the
mnny, nor the internationalism of
tion of the good elements of both; n loyalty which includes devo
tion to tine's country with recognition of , the rights of other coun
tries, ami llius lays the foundation for peace based ttptm mutual for
bearance and mutual self-interest.
....
This signing of lhe.treaty of Locarno is a momentous OcoLssion,
the importance of which it is difficult to overestimate. And yet
from one standpoint, the wonder is not that such .an agreement
has at last been reached but that it was not reached long before.
For after all this covenant is merely common sense, n step dic
tated by every consideration of national welfare and political ex
pediency. i
The plain truth is Europe can't stage another war .without
bringing ruin upon victor and vanquished alike. Of the signatories
to this pad, Frilnec iilone is in any sense prepared for war.
And yet it has taken nearly seven years to roach this decision,
seven years on the brink of chaos and destruction!
.
One is tempted to see a new era. in Europe,. the dawn of a new
day. Hut experience justifies a certain caution in such enthusiasms.
For back of this treaty arc two vital material facts which have
an important bearing upon it, how important only tfle future can
disclose. One fact is the exhaustion lit" western -Europe, physioally
ami financially,, the other is the tiit'iiace of Bolshevism.
.lust how real a factjir the new attitude of .France toward. Ger
many. aiid;(!crmany toward France has been in this pact of peaoe, no
one knows, and no one can know. We hope it has been the deter-;
mining factor, but the acid test can only come when conditions'
render peace less a matter of self-interest and necessity.
When western Europe is restored (o health again nnd the danger
of at ycrnian-Slav alliance removed, then and then only will the
truth be known. ' : t .' ;

belnu atTl loss to account for hia aud-
den attacks of sneezing and stuffing
up nnd running at the nose, It is nat
ural enough for the poor deluded
hu f f erer to' ' trump u p some real or
imaginary exposure to draft, wet feet
or change of weather or clothing aa
n explanation. .Such misconceptions,
however, constitute only a small share
of the errors' of observation or rea
soning which . holster up the great
'cold" delusion. A far larger share
of erratic deductions of this order niny
be ascriped to, the abnormal sensitiv
ity of persons .with low grade .chronic
nasal lesions to trifling mechanical
disturbances. 6f the el relation which
would give a normal individual little
or no discomfort.
Dr. P. W. Brlggs, a nose and throat
specialist who has studied this ques
tion, emphasizes, the common naoit 01
ignoring or overlooking such low
grade nasal. .lesions. He writes that
such ''nasal pathology is usually symp
tomless; distress symptoms arise only
us a, result of disfunction under
stress." Dr. Mriggs uIho reminds us
that nasnl discharge is not normal."
N'oL of 'course- It is not,' but how many
people with a nasal discharge fail
to realize that, there is some pat ho- ;
logical condition - responsible for it ?
And how many of these easy runnning
noses give , false testimony concern
ing he alleged Injurious effect of'
drafts, wet feet or other harmless ex
posure? Chronic .sinus infection (ethmoid, i
sphenoid or frontal sinusitis), slm- i
pie, chronic rhinitis, chronic hyper
trophic rhinitis (thickened turbinated
bodies), nasal po?yp, deformities
which have Resulted from old Inju
ries of th nose and infected tonsils
are the usual 'symptomless" lesions
of this class. Of course symptoms
Are plentiful nn(l troublesome enough i
in mnjiy of thes cases. yet in a consid- ,
eriiblo share of them the symptoms ;
Are so slight nnd the individuals so ac-
customed to them that the Individuals :
do not reailze they nre not normal.
In tho' niajority of cases of low
grade Hironic ysal disease more or
less "disfunction under stress," as Dr.
Ilriggs describes it, manifests itself
When "the affected individual is ex
posed to a draft or any of the insig
nificant environmental changes which
all' live, people are exposed to a hun
dred times a day. Ho is very mulish
about it, -too,-and' asserts with great
conviction . and vehemence; as he lays
hia ears hack on his head, that In
spjtc of nil "theories" to the contrary,
he never falls to catch cold If he sita
1 nteh breeze from the open window
or In a .room insufficiently heated.
"What his conception ef a "cold" is, it
would be harrf to define, but the
symptoms he dignifies with that name
are generally a, little stuffiness,' run
ning at the nose, or similar "disfunc
tion" for a few' minutes or an hour
Just long enough to confirm the delu
sion, but not long enough to amount
to any definite illness.
"If I sleep at night with the win
dow, open and cold air blowing on my
head." testifies such abnormal indiv
idual, who of course, imugines his
head Is quite normal, 'I wake In the
morning With what is called heural
gla, but by wearing a enp Jt avoid
this."
Well, wear a cap. .then. If It gives
you greater comfort. Hut it is nb
sur dto imagine that the cold wind
blowing on your head has anything
to do with the ache or pain called neu '
ralgla, which you have next morning,
If ( the wind wan not discomforting lo
you- while 'ft was blowing on your
howl. . . ...
Any "exposure" to Cold, wet. draft,
or change of weather which Is not
.discomforting to you' at fhe mftinent
can surely cause no subsequent in
jury -or illness. (That ..favorite old
equivocation about'- the dire conse
quences to befall ."sgmo day if not

My advice to old folks or young
folks who Jlnd ordinary drafts,
changesi v weather, wet .feet nnd the'
like disturbing to the functions of the
respiratory organs, in that, they should
undergo a careful health examina
tion without deluy, that the doctor
may find out what the nasal pathology
Is and udvlse about its correction. If
this were a general custom or prac

generally would be much less .mulish
about "catching cold."

"When congress convenes In Decem
ber many political observers nre of
the opinion that the senate will not
confirm the appointment of Gerald
P. Nye, North Dakota editor, as sen
ator - from that
state. He was ap
pointed to fill a
vacancy caused by
the death of the
late senator, Kdwin
P. Ladd, in the
face of a great
deal of, opposition
since the consen
sus of opinion was
that the governor
did not have the
power to fill a va
cancy in the sen
ate by appoint
ment as the state
legislature does
not confer that
SE.RALD f. NVt
.,V power upon the
governor. Since Governor A. L. Sorlie
had practically agreed to let the mat
ter rest until June 30, then by meuns
of a special election to fill the post,
the appointment of Nye came as , a
surprise. ,
Nye is 33 and the publisher of the
Griggs County Kentinel-Courler, at

Hortonvllle, Wis., the son of a pub
lisher. Ho is well known in North
Dakota as an ardent supporter of the
Non-PnrtiFan League and was one of
the first editors to support its cause.

league failed N'ye took It over and

failure It is said, he whole henrtedly
