Advocate of vocational training are pursuing their campaign with remarkable persistency, and are achieving notable results, not, however, to the utter rout of those who stand for the purely cultural. The Bee in times past has discussed this question, always from the point that a rea sonable combination of the two is the ideal form, and that it is not unattainable. When a choice is to be made between the purely cultural and the essentially vocational, then the former should have preference. Reasons for this are obvious. If production of wealth is the chief object of life, then vocational training deserves prominence. Unless we are ready to admit that the end of our civilization is mistaken, however, we, can not sub scribe to the proposal that mere production is all there is to life. Alongside it the faculty for en joyment automatically developes, else production has no purpose. This capacity for enjoyment en tails the need of culture, if only that a proper balance may be maintained in the social aspect of our civilization, which, after all, is only complex as we fail to recognize the elemental fact -that enjoyment is the part of all, and not the exclusive privilege of a few. Gradations exist, and what seems to be confusion arises from the fact that many undertake to participate in what affords delight only to a few. . When these elemental facts are admitted, and a reasonable allowance is made for the 'diverg ence of individual tastes and inclinations, the problem is greatly simplified. Cultural training will not inevitably produce a .capacity for full appreciation of all the beauties of art or litera ture, or any of the other things that embellish life, but it will enable its possessor to compre hend some of the things that might be otherwise looked upon as irritations if not actual inter ferences with the pursuit of happiness. ' Equally, , vocational training has limitations, in'that it does not necessarily produce unvarying skill in the workmen trained. Unless the two are effectively combined, the tendency to de- marcation -dl classes in our social structure will surely follow. We will have one group of citi zens trained to enjoy, another to produce, and the utter lack .of sympathetic understanding be tween them will serve to emphasize and solidify the "class consciousness" to which the radicals inevitably appeal - So long as life holds something beyond the mere production of wealth, and success is meas ured by a standard other than possession of wealth, so long will cultural training stand just above that of vocational Boys and girls must be taught to. be useful, capable of providing for themselves in . the battle of life, but they must also be given a standard just a little bit higher than that found in merely material ideals Motor Trucks Where Ox Teams Pulled. "The American rait way system is the marvel of the age," wrote a Nebraska historian in 1880. Little did he imagine that the days of stage coaches and overland freighting would revive. After the construction of the Union Pacific rail road in 1869 the old trails had gone out of use. But now there are fifteen stage lines entering Omaha, and they are now so firmly convinced of their permanence that a central station is to be opened for travelers. New highways have replaced those furrows across the prairie. The motor bus and the gaso line truck have taken the place of the ox trains of "the freighters, the horse-drawn stage and mail coaches ana' the pony express. If this seems to lack picturesueness and romance, it at least represents an improvement In ' speed and com fort, and it may even be questioned if travelers across the sod trails found any such delights in the incidents of early day transportation as fic tion has attributed to it t No one elected to travel by stage when the railroad came, and now with service of well equipped trains proffered many prefer to travel or ship by automobile. All of which seems to demonstrate that the open highways have at tractions now that did not exist before. "Each of the old overland trails which crosses Nebraska from the Missouri river to the moun tains has a story," Addison E. Sheldon remarks in his "History and Stories of Nebraska." "It is a story written deep in the lives of men and women, and it is the record of the westward march of the American people. The story of these ovecland trails was also written in broad, deep furrows across our prairies. Along these trails journey thousands of men, women and children, with ox teams, carts, wheelbarrows and on foot, to settle the great country beyond. The Oregon trail, he denominates the first and most famous. - Starting at Independence it entered Nebraska in Gage county and led off to the northwest, passing into Wyoming through Seottsbluff county. First travel by this route was by a little band of returning Astorians, in 1813. For traders later followed the path thus made known. In 1830 Milton Sublette led a trading expedition of ten wagons to the Wind River mountains ' and back, leaving the first definite track, to be followed by many long emi grant wagon trains, moving about twenty miles. day. Another important highway started from the Missouri river near Omaha and followed the orth side of the Platte to Fort Laramie. The Mormons made this a wsgon road in 1847, when they left Florence for Salt Lake. The Denver trail was mother, with one end in Omaha and cat-off running from Nebraska' City, Over this the gold seekers and their machinery for opening mines near Pike's peak wert carried. These trail lost their Importance when the railroad came; for the most part their last ves tige was erased by the plow of the farmer. The years roll on, the scene changes and Omaha one mora becomes a center of overland trame. A Word for Rain-in-the-Face. The Dee today reproduces an editorial from the Boston Transcript, dealing with Raln-in-the- Face, and soma denials of the widely published account of his escape from custody at Fort Abraham Lincoln and his run of 300 miles on snowshoes through a blizzard following. Da kota people who are familiar with the facta and conditions, from residence in the state and acquaintance with the Indian, furnish ample veri- .fication of the charge that the old chief was drawing the long bow when he told the tale. This, however, does not entirely justify the Transcript in characterizing him as a Mun chausen. In order to understand Rain-in-the- Face one must keep in mind that he belonged to that time when chieftainship among the Sioux tribes carried with it certain prestige, to sustain which the possessor must ever be ready with deeds to boast of. Not infrequently these deeds were born of a fervid imagination, excited by a generous desire to at least equal the exploit re counted by the preceding speaker at the dance or council fire, and yet restrained by a prudence that tbok cognizance of possibility as well as of credibility. Nor were the Indians alone in this friendly rivalry of fictitious exploits. White men gained eminence by pursuing similar meth ods. Western annals are loaded down with tales as fanciful and with no more of foundation than the account of the marvellous exploit of the In dian chief, which had for its basis the fact that he did escape from the guard house of Fort Abraham Lincoln. Long ago the incident on which Longfellow's poem was based was disproved by testimony of officers who served under Custer, but who were with Benteen or Reno that dreadful June day when the Sioux warriors reached apogee on the Little Big Horn. Neither General George A. Custer, nor his brother, Captain "Tom" Cus ter, suffered the indignity of having his heart eaten. Many apocryphal yarns are afloat con cerning that battle, and even yet from time to time a survivor crops up. The actual facts are matters of official record, having been brought Out by careful inquiry before courts-martial, and the only living thing .that went into the fight with Custer and later emerged was the horse, "Commanche," whose days were ended in luxuri ous idleness as the protege of the Seventh cav alry, and whose preserved remains stand in the canteen at Tort Riley today. Rain-in-the-Face was not the only man to let his fancy play with facts concerning the Custer affair, nor does his imagination in its freest flight notably excel that of some palefaces who have dealt with this and other episodes in the win ning of the west A common motive inspired them all a desire to shine heroically. They may not measure up to the exact standards set for historical verity in New England, but they have not greatly exceeded the bounds set by tradition that come down from there. - Britain Offers Up a Sacrifice. As the Prince of Wales set forth on his voy age to India, his sister, Princess Mary, wept. Tremendous crowds of loyal subjects gave him an enthusiastic send-off, some, of course with no thought of the perils of his tour, and others realizing the bravery of his act and admiring him the more for it The king and queen ap peared deeply moved. Mysterious, unfathomable India , is teeming with unrest British troops and native rebels have clashed in several localities. Assassination has been resorted to, for, though the movement for independence is organized on the basis of nonresistance and nonco-operation, "yet it has stirred some to resort to violence. ' The visit of the young prince to this part of the empire was announced long ago. To have abandoned it now would have been to confess weakness and give encouragement to those of rebellious tendencies. For the sake of the em pire it became necessary for the Prince of Wales to tread this dangerous soil, the incarna tion of British supremacy. King George stand ing with his arm about the prince's shoulder, brings to mind the picture of Abraham who stood ready to offer up his beloved son for the glory of the Lord, if need be. No one can know what faces the Prince of Wales. ... He goes forth perhaps as a sacrifice to the spirit of empire. By his display of spirit he may win the-plaudits of the masses of India. If imperial splendor appeals to the English people, it may well hope to mesmerize this more primi tive race. What reason and military force have failed to do, the summoning up of the emo tions and reverence which traditionally respond to royal pomp arid splendor now are relied upon to accomplish. If Great Britain were an elective republic instead of a hereditary one, with a president instead of a royal line, no such stroke for empire would be possible. The Prince of Wales is a pawn in the international game, en titled both to admiration and pity. Now that a baby's cries saved its parents from death in fire, some of those new-fangled mothers and fathers who never got up to walk the floor. bTit sleep right through all outcries, may wonder if they are being as good to them selves as they might -y The excellent folk who now announce that Darwinism is dead are interesting only through the fact that they have been twenty years finding it out If they are looking for an argument, let them attack nee-Darwinism or neo-Lamarckism. Lord Northcliffe, with his speech in Manila in which he promised Great Britain would side with America rather than with Japan, has not done his utmost to make the visit of the Prince of Wales to Tokio a success. - The government is selling off gas masks, but no one but a humorist could imagine any use for them.

Whether Itln-ln-the-Kace, Sioux chieftain, was a great runner In his ycuth or a great liar In Ma advanc ing years la not a question of sui'h vital Important that It ! ever likely to divide families or seriously Innu enc human thought Colonel Shields, In his recent book, "Ulan ket Indians of th Northwest." told Italn-ln-lhe-r'acVa story of how he fan lOO miles In three days on snow shoes as Italn-ln-ihe-Kaia had told It to him. It I a good story, and exults th feme of Kaln-ln-lhe-r'ae higher than thttt of any runner or ancient Qrre, but the telling thereof em bo J lea various details more essential tn historians than th question whether or not an American Indian once ran farther and faater than any Crack athlete. There Is an Inter woven tale of revenge of how nln-ln-th-Fac was imprisoned with unreasonable discomfort and treated with unreasonable severity by the orders of General Custer; how ho swore vengeance; and how even tually he cut out the general s heart after the Custer massacre, as the fioet Longfellow has also described n verse. And It Is better to have thee details historically right than to have them dramatically Inter esting. lUln-ln-the-Face Is a dead Indian According to Mr. Donne ltoblnson. secretary and superintendent of the department or history of th stato ot Bouth Dakota, he confessed In hi last hours to the missionary, Mls Mary C. Collins, that he would have been a better Indian, even when alive. If he had restrained his In cllnatlon to tell large tales for the deception of whit listeners. Theso. it would seem, psssed on the large tales. "Perhaps few men," says Rob inson, "have been so giorined by imaginative writers (is this ssme commonplace Indian, Tlaln-ln-tho Face." Printed In a book, the story ot the SOO-mlle run has stirred the memories of the men who were on the spot Cot J. M. T. Portcllo of the United States army, who was often officer of the guard at old Fort Lincoln, and D. F. Berry, who was official photographer and scout with Custer and under their criticism the tale seems to fall to nieces. Ac cording to Raln-ln-the-Face, he killed two white men in self-defense and was arrested and locked up In a jail without a floor, where snow blew In through the logs, and Raln- ln-the-Face must needs keep walk ing to keep from being frozen. And this, by the Indian's story, was done by General Custer's orders, so that when Raln-ln-the-Face escaped nn l started out "into the desert. In th midst of a howling blizzard, at night fall, with only one blanket without a mouthful of food, without a weapon of any kind, when the tem perature was probably 40 degrees be low zero and the wind was blowing 30 miles an hour," he had registered a vow of vengeance against the general. But according to Mr. D. F. Berrv. Rain-in-the-Face got into trouble by murdering two white men and boast ing afterward of the murder, and the guardhouse in which he was confined was reasonably comfortable, . and Kain-in-the-Kace had no personal hatred for General Custer, and did not cut out his heart after the mas sacre. "There was no blizzard the night Rain-in-the-Face made his escape," says Mr. Berry, "and ns for snowshoes, I never saw a pair among the Sioux in North Dakota or Montana." And again: "Rain-in-the-Face was a true and loyal friend .of mine and was not so cruel as some think. He was of a kindly dispo sition and often spoke of Mrs. Cus ter. Whenever I wrote to her. 1 would mention this and he seemed very pleased." -. Colonel Portello,- by describing the conditions of travel in' the territory covered by the Indian's alleged run, reduces it to a seem ingly Impossibility; and Mr. Robin son, as historian of the state, fur ther demolishes the large tale of the commonplace Indian." It seems likely that Raln-in-the- Face was an aboriginal Munchausen. What historically is more to the point, It seems demonstrated that General Custer's attitude, and the accommodations afforded - by his guardhouse, were not such as to Jus tify any sympathy whatever with Rain-in-the-Face's revenge motive; in ract, it appears that there was no such motive. But this, after all. was no commonplace Indian. If ho had been given a course in short story writing, Rain-in-the-F ace might perhaps have made a name lor himself In the popular maga zines.
