The daily cost of war to Great Britain has
reached the enormous sum of 121,7(0,000, an
Increase of S3 per cent in, five months. The

It seems that the memory of Charles 8. Mel

failed at a critical moment la the trial of his

goes to prove the rule that high grade memories
carry first-class forgetterles aa safety attachments.
pur democratic aenator from Nebraska has
at last found one legislative proposal urged by
the president which he feels he can conscien

Partisanship and Preparedness.
If rreldnt Wilson's objective Is slnaly to
I'Ut the United States in a position to resist sg
greaslnn, it must be manifest that he ia In error
In tusking It a question of party policy. No
tetter illustrstion of this fart rsn be found than
the couroe pursued In dealing with problems
trowing out of the Europesn war. Republicans
t.nd democrats alike have stood behind the ed
l, Inlfftratlon and as a result of this united sup
port tfce greatest achievement of the administra
tion lies In successfully keeping our country
from being drawn Into the melee.
Aside from the fact that 'national prepsred
t ens conies as a confession of democratic error
In the psst, making it a partisan issue now
r.ilght dampen the ardor of men who have been
kdvocattng It for years both In and out of con
Cte.Hfl, and who on the broad Issue of nations!
welfare would be with the president in any
reasonable program. Just as they have been in
his European diplomatic controversies. The
l-resldent must not assume that men of a differ
cnt party are opposed to the Idea, for the records
if congress demonstrate the contrary. If a sane
irogram of national defense la to be evolved,
sufficient on the one hand and not to run into
a riot of militarism on the other, the president
will need the support of the important men In
rongress regardless of party. That he may
hip the recalcitrant members of nl own party
Into line for an administration measure is prob
able, but such methods, Judging by past experi
ence, are not likely to strengthen him with bis
party or with the people.
Why Not a Municipal Exposition t
One of the eommon complaints of the day,
c r, rather, the source of many complaints, Is the
ipnoranro of the busy business man and the
ncrk-a-day worklngman of what their public
servants are really doing for them. The ordl
rury man grumbllngly pays his taxes and trusts
to luck aa to getting something; In return. If
he knew what his money was, in fact, buying
be might not grumble so much, or find fault so
easily.
But people will not take the time to visit
the public Institutions and Investigate for them
selves. If they are to learn, what they should
know, the information must be brought to them
In some appealing form. To bridge this gap
i;overal cities, notably the city of Dayton, have
I eld a municipal exposition, with exhibits Illus
trating; the work of the different departments
of the municipal government, Including the
rubllc schools. The slogan In Dayton waa, "Beo
how your city works for you." If a municipal
exposition accomplishes a desirable purpose and
Is a good thing for Dayton, It might be a good
thing for Omaha', too.
Developing Dairy Industry.
The prosperity of Minnesota baa beea
bullded on dairying more than upon any one
inral activity, and the report of attendance at
t-'ie dairy school at the State Agricultural col
lege gives an inkling of bow the pre-eminence
tf Minnesota, aa a dairy state haa been obtained
and maintained. According to the report men
tioned. In addition to the large number taking
the regular course in dairying and "butter-
making, more than 100 are enrolled in the post
graduate courses. ' ,
The relation of these facts to results Is evi
dent. Butter-making In Minnesota is practiced
along scientific lines, and It has such a large
corps of really expert butter-makers that the
product commands a premium la the markets.
Minnesota's natural facilities are no better than
Nebraska's. No state In the union la blessed
with a better or purer water supply for stock
than ours, with better or more plentiful forage,
or any of the essentials which enter Into the
ptoductlon of butter of the highest grade, and
In quantity the Nebraska output ranks aa a
leader, and In quality It Is staple. There Is no
reaaon except the lack of experienced and edu
cated makers why this atate should not outtop
Minnesota aa a producer of butter that is better
than staple. It Is not sufficient that the cream
eries employ skilled men for actual making of
the butter, but the training must extend, aa In
Minnesota, to the producers of the cream, and
nothing but a widely diffused knowledge of cor
rect methods can bring about thla result. When
the Nebraska dairy school Is appreciated and
ratronlzod aa ia that of Minnesota, and its teach
ings fully applied, the yearly Income from dairy
ing will be wonderfully Increased.
Relation of Crime and Punishment.
Taking cognisance of the Increasing- number
of burglaries, holdups and crimes of violence In
Nebraska, the State Board of Pardons haa de
cided to grant no more paroles from the peniten
tiary on tne completion of merely the minimum
sentence. All students of criminology unit in
lie opinion that the greatest deterrents to crime
are, first, the certainty of detection, and second,
punishment Irksome to those who -!. it
The theory of the Indeterminate sentence la to
provide a range elastic enough to cover tha eaaea
of those guilty of crimes of all degrees of
vlclousness and to afford a more deliberate
Judgment of the punishment necessary than Is
possinie in a brier bearing in court. Practice
in the past has largely crowded thla theory Into
the background by making tbe teat of maximum
or minimum largely one of behavior while in
irlaon.
Investigation shows, however, that aa a rule
the professional and habitual criminal la the
taat behaved convict and the least, likely to
fracti're prison rules. Ills expertonc has tsught
Mm thst it pays to be good when there Is no
ither alternative, and on a good behavior record
he la in a position to ask parole ton the expira
tion of minimum time. Added to the gener
osity In granting paroles haa been a laxneaa In
following up and properly keeping track of
paroled convicts, and these together doubtless
Isvg weakened tbe deterring Influence of fear
cr punishment. That the parole aystem and in
determinate aentence are advanced steps In
treating crime from the reformatory viewpoint
seeking to prevent relapse of those who are vic
tims largely of circumstance cannot be doubted,
but careful Judgment rather than sympathy, or
rood behavior behind prison bars, must guide
tbe paroling power.
Tbe divinities that doth hedge the emperor

Dancing Rules
- toals K. Challf la Stealth Caltire. "
FOUR-INCH dlatance between partners for dancing
poaltlon thla year. TJ'it o you think that will
do any good for ut to try to etandardlsi poaltlon?
Do you think anybody la going to get aa far away
from hla partner aa four whole inchee? No.
It Is Impoeelble to eliminate rloeed poaltlon. I've
tried for years, and mlthor mnn or woman la ready
to give It up. Oh. yes, four Inchee when the dancing
teacher la watching, but wait until they go to th
dancing (latee and watch them cloa; the dancing pub
lic won't pay any attention to our four-Inch decree,
and go on aa they pleape.
People In America dance aa they please. We Jnet
tag behind. In Europe the maater tnakea the public
dance as he says, but here the public la the drill
maater, putting ua through our steps. America ha
the Inventive aplrit.
This year there ia to be no swaying of hi pi. no
wriggling of ahouliVra, no exaggerated body move
ment; handa are to be claaped In no fantastic ir
rangement, but firmly with flngera closed, and tho
right hand of the gentleman la at the lady'a win',
fingers In, and the left hand of the lady repoaea,
fingers cloaed, on the gentleman's arm.
This Is the way you must do the congress one
step: "Forward" always mcana man forward:
1. Kour sliding atepa forward and a "tep-ln,
atep-out" movement, whl'-h means the right foot ll
over the left, and out again.
S. Three atcpa fotward and a "progressive" turn
to the left, confuting of five atepa to make the com
plete turn, and a prog-reaalv movement forward.
S. Two ateps forward and two waits atcpa. tA
waits atep la a leap, a elklo and a tisnge of feet:
leap la Juet a alight undulation of movement).
4. Four slow atepa, one waits atep. a progressive,
turn of three atepa and one waits atep.
The fox trot la to be danced thla way:
1. Two alow walking atepa forward, one waits
atap four times.
1. Pour slow atepa, two waits steps, turning to
left. Repeat four times.
5. Two slow steps forward, on walls step, rest
for one count, then a leap and step forward.
4. Four walking atepa, balance forward and baok,
twinkle back and forward.
The tango la simplified Into thla form:
1. Four slow walking steps, one chas.ie (elide, cut,
allele), one corte (leap-allAe forward, back end rest).
i- Open poaltlon, moving forward In line of direc
tion; three chaaaea and one corte.
I. Two waits steps, turning, and one corte.
4. Two stepa forward, one waits step, one corte.
The modern waits has these atepa:
1. Four walking stepa forward one mnaaure to
atep two canter ateps forward, two canter stepa,
tvrnlnr. (Canter Is two stepa to three eounta).
J. Two alow atepa forward, one balonce forward,
one balance back, four waits atapa, turning to the lefr.
5. FOur canter atepa forward, slide, clone (close
meaning bring feet together), three canter steps,
turning to right.
And there you have the dances ss they will ue
danced In New Tork, In California, and all the places
between. That Is, until new stimulus snd creative art
are born In the dancing prince who takes his partner
and whirls her out to try a new Inspired atep.
The beginning snd end of social dancing Is In the
publio dance hall. The stage has some Influence,
yes, but even stage dances are only used as a basis
for further variation on the part of the dancer, and
who can say today what he will dance 'omorrow?

POfTH SIDE, OMAHA, Nov. ll.-To
the Editor of The Bee; I notice the
letter in your lasue of today from tr. H.
H. Oray of Pittsburg. Kan , In which he
atate that eo.ulrrela are not to blame for
the destruction of blrdx. but that mltea
are to blame.
I lived in Kanaaa a number of years
and saw aome pretty gnod-elaed lice and
mitee but never aaw any that were large
enough to destroy ncata, brenk the exgs
an! throw young Mrda to the ground.
Last year 'a pair of roblna built their
neat, within four feet of an upa'arj win
dow of a bedroom. In a email oak tree
thit atanda nar our houie. After they
had bj.lt their nert they laid four et;gs
and began to act on the eggs, but wlthli
a day of two after they began to aet a
aqulrrel drove them from the neat, tore
the neat to plecea and, of courae, the tigs
fell to the ground, and were broken.
Bngllah aparrowa aro alwnya covered

I know Just whst I stn ta'klnj about
when I say that squirrels Ueatroy the

their young ones. Farmers huve told m
that aqulrrela. at tlniea, carry away many
bushels of corn, and they also destroy a

OMAHA. Nov. ll.-To the Editor of

regarding "Billy" Bunduy from V. A.
Jiradahaw of North Platte. It ia npparent
that Mr. Dradahaw bjllevea that the
church and state should bo unttods and
that public funds shovld be diverted to
ward sectarian ends. X went to ask you,
Mr. Bredahaw. aa well as everyone else
wno believes the Bible, as a sacred book,
should be taught In the publlu school,
If It ever occurred to them that this at
titude on their part Is one of the very
things that mskeg many of the infidels
and agnostics of our day. Doesn't thla
Indicate a dealrs on the part of Christians
to. seeure unfair atate aaalatancs In the
spread of their doctorlne?
Mr. Brsdahaw says the, "latter part of
my letter is so bonaenalcal that it la
Juat about worthleaa to comment or de
bate on." Of course that la merely an
assertion and proves nothing, except
that to his mind it Is "nonsensical,"
while to the minds of many Omahans
who compUmeata mm est tfee article U
appeared very senalble. I am satisfied to
abide with the opinion of the majority.
I have a deep admiration, Mr. Bredahaw,
for your wonderful power of discernment.
Tou "gueaaed" that I am "either a fol
lower of Ingeraoll. a Christian Scientist
or Rusaellte." Of courae, If I was not
one of these three, you could further
"guaaa" that I was a believer In soms
one of the hundreds of other various
creeds of beliefs and unbeliefs. But we'll
let the cat out of the bag and keep
you in auspense no longer. Tea I am
a follower of Ingeraoll, a great believer
In his writings and teachings, an admirer
of the man who did more In thlrty-alx
years of his life for the human race,
more good, mora kindness, more liberty
than all your priests and preachers and
"Billy" Sundays will do in a million years.
You are mistaken when you say Inger
aoll "delighted in slashing ths Bible in
order to fit his own Ideas." but the truth
of the matter Is that after he had been
telling the truth about the Bible for a
few years, many creeds started to alash
the Bible so that it would fit with his
advanced Ideas, so you see Ingeraoll
made even religion better and I cahoot
understand why any Christian ahould
malign a man who has made his creed
mote believable.

JULESBl'RO, Colo.. Nov. 11. To the
Editor of The Beet I notice In Ths Bee a
Tatter on Bible and hell. by Mr. Brad
shaw of North Platte. This article la
about on a par with his former letter, in
which he denounced the traveling men.
I wish he would explain why "Billy"
Sunday was right In attempting to force
hla way into tho Omaha publle schools
and why we should have the Bible in the
publio schools. The publio schools were
never Intended for religious education.
Lens than half tha patrons of tho public
schools are church members, and while
this ia tbe case no school board has
the right to allow the teaching of the
Bible In ths publle school.
1 would like to state In closing that
two of my fellow workers who wore
converted during the revival In Omaha,
have, during the last week, gone Insane
with Billy's" religion T) and are now
being cared for In an asylum.
