Omaha give o the world during the Uit
week ,lo rare example of devotion, the reault
of nituril affection, where lf venUhed before
the thought of a dear one in dinger. One of
the firtfH trull of humanity is that which impel
the effort to ait or reicue when diiter or
mishap puts another in jeopardy. Few there are
w ho will not lend their help under ordinary con
ditions, but the immediate threat of death usually
halts the boldeit.
A father saw )is son in peril, and rushed to
his aid. He did not hesitate, even though he
must have known what possibly awaited him.
He was stricken down by a murderer's bullet,
and pissed on without knowing his sacrifice was
in vain. What he did know was that his boy
was in a perilous situation, and his love led him
directly to that boy's side. In this he exemplified
the truest duty of the father, and his sacrifice is
glorified by the reflection that his end came be
cause he was by the side of his boy endeavoring
to Me him.
toother incident was that of a little girl,
carritd by firemen from a fiercely blazing home,
who struggled to return because her mother was
still in the house. Firemen al6 brought the
mother out, but their act was that of calculating
skill and experience, while the little girl was
moved by that higher impulse which recks not
of anger when some loved one needs aid.
Who can look on thesa examples, and cling
to tha doctrine of total depravity? Something
abort were human understanding supports such
deeds. It is4iot the common instinct that per
vades the animal kingdom, for the male brute
will desert his offspring, the cubs will abandon
their dam. Only in man is found this high re-,
nunciation of self in response to the promptings
of parental or filial love. Such willingness to
sacrifice is solid support for the thought that
there is within us some trace of the cjivine.
Abraham Lincoln on the Stage.
Certain great names are held in such venera
ttorti by the people that their connection with a
play of any kind cause's some catching of the
breath. One of these is Abraham Lincoln, Per
haps no other name,- save that of the gentle
Nazarene, is so revered by Americans, and it
was something of a shock to a great many a
few years ago when it was announced that a
young English writer had chosen .the great pres
ident to be the central figure of a drama bearing
his name. 'Not that Lincoln had not been intro
duced several times in American stage literature,
but merely incidental, and not as a principal
- character, save as the thought, suggested by his
name might influence the action or sustain the
historical value of the drama. "The Birth of a
Natiou" is one example of this, and "The Cop
perhead i Mother.
This very lelfng of . revere'nee has served in
'a sense to hfcld Lincoln aeVeVy from those whom
lie so well loved. He moved among his times
as a very human man, with the imperfections
and frailties of humanity unconcealed. His mar
tyrdom suddenly elevated him among the demi
gods, and set him above and apart from the peo-
- pie he served. Therefore it is that Abraham Lin
coln is better known, in some regards, to for
eigners who have studied him as a great man
against the background of his day and'in the light
of his work. From one of these studies Drink
water is said to have derived the inspiration that
led to his play. ,',..
Omaha soon will nave the belated opportunity
of seeing this drama', enacted by a company that
has been playing for three years in America.
Then we shall be better able to judge of whether
the poet has clothed .the. great man, as is re
ported, in the habiliments of reality as a man
of great strength and tenderness, walking among
men, or if his poetic fancy has idealized him in
a different way "Common report is in favor of
the play. " '. ,
More Home Building.
Home building, which' proceeds apace in
Omaha as well as elsewhere about the country,
has not yet caught up. with the annual increase
;n population.' Reports from 140 cities presented
in ' the Monthly Labor Review or April show,
however, that there was 32 per cent more build
ing in the United States last year than in 1920.
This was made possible by a decrease of 38
per cent in the wholesale prices of building
material. The average cost of one-family dwell
ings, is indicated at $4,314 in 1920 and $3,925
in 1921. , -.
What is the annual increase .in population?
The normal growth in cities of more than 25,000
people is 2.7 per cent per year, according to the
statisticans. . During the war years and for a con
siderable time after this expansion was not met
by new buildings, ft is indicated by the govern
ment report that in 1921 the number of new
dwellings was somewhat above the increased pop
ulation demand, which means that a start was
made at reducing the. housing shortage which
arose in preceding years. '
New impetus has been given building oper
ations this spring. . This, means more employ
ment for labor and better homes for the people,
with lower rents if construction becomes suf
ficiently general. In every way the situation is
promising, and in none more so than in elimi-

Pit stylf run Progressive and Dtablihfd.
Buitnett ireiuicted by the General Attembly
of th Fmbyteru church at Des Moines last
week compel! several important irinuctiont.
Matt nottbl of thes the elimination of
Istltt of the governing boards of the body, the
number being cut from suteen to four. This new
linement of activities it expected to produce
better co-ordination of the woik. and a corre
sponding incrett in efficiency, without in any
way lettening the general service. It it the
result of careful study on part of experts in
church adminUtration, and a such was adopted
by the assembly.
Another item of great general interest was the
adoption of a deliverance on the subject of the
"shorter Bible." The deliverance reads in part:
The amly bears arnt teatlmony to
the naeeaaity of lha word of Cad a an en
tirety, baliune that i part ara Wat un
demand only in their relation ta tha whole,
and that noihmt le-th Blbla, nor t wiaaly
or prop.rlr calJS-1 by that nam, except the
whole Dible.
The commissioners also decided adversely on
an overture from one preibytery that the word
"catholic" be changed to "chrittian" in the Apos
lies' creed, it being held that no church has a
monopoly of the Vord "catholic." Definite con
demnation of Sunday sports and other forms of
Sibbith detecrition wit recorded, along with
censure for impure, indecent or degrading mo
tion pictures.
In general, the firtt week's work of the body
indicate that the Pretbyterians are loting noth
ing of their vigor, their democracy or the ca
pacity for going after whit is not right in the
world. The church is both a standpat and a
rrogrestive organization, if such a combination
of terms can be understood.
"Back to the Grass."
Meredith Nicholson, the Hoosier author, is
rot joining in the bewildered Jamentition over
the lack of leaders that is heard incessantly these
c'ayt. As a devoted citizen of the Valley of
Democracy, which is the term he uses to de
scribe the Mississippi basin, he sees the need as
tor an awakening of local pride and civic con
sciousness a spontaneous broadening of the
spirit.
"We don't need leaders so much as we need
people to stir us up and make us think and give
us some serious interest in the thing nearest
home that is a part of our education that
seems neglected just now.1 That is the view as
he expressed it on his recent holiday with that
other Indianan, Will H. Hays, of New York.
Here is to be found a plea for a return to
the reality and simplicity of life. Americans like
to see things done on a grand scale and very
often neglect the smaller matters that are close
at hand and more easily dealt with. It is possi
ble to stir up heated political arguments over
European affairs while the same people remain
not only uninterested but unfamiliar with events'
and issues affecting their home community.
The foundation of democracy and of progress
lies in the smaller political and social units. Un
less' the people interest themselves in the little '
things, they will not be able to handle the J)ig
ones. "Back to the grass," Mr. Nicholson ad
vises. That is good people must come out of
the clouds and plant their feet firmly on the
ground.
Kind Words for Prohibition.
As she was sailing for home, Lady Astor left
a few kind words for prohibition. She says her
observations and inquiries convince her that good
has followed the adoption of the amendment and
the enactment of the Volstead law. She -bases
her conclusions largely on information given by
churches and charitable workers, wh,o tell of re
duced calls for help from the poorer ciasses, and
from those who were the unfortunate victims of
drink. On this score, we rather fancy that pro
hibition has the better of the argument At any
rate, Lady Astor can get a lot of support for her
assertion from other than the charitable organ
izations and the churches. It is true that we still
are contributing to help- along quite a number of
organizations whose efforts go to the ameliora
tion of distress in the world, but this distress is
not so much the outgrowth of drink as it was' a
few years ago. Nor has crime been banished.
Poverty and suffering still are with us, and those
who have plenty are asked to divide with those
who have nothing, but the basis of it all is not
drink. Liquor is not entirely driven out; enough
of drunkenness remains, but the world is learning
that a sober nation can have sin and misery just
as if it were not sober. Here is another theme
for reformers and philosophers alike. Prohibi
tion has done a great deal, but there is a great
deal still to be done.
Daylight Saving -Lacks Savor.
Another experiment has turned out about as
might have been anticipated. Down in Washing
ton the folks thought they would try saving day
light, but without monkeying with the clock. In
stead of calling it 7 o'clock in the morning when
really it was only 6, they decided to try starting
an hour earlier, setting business schedules an
hour ahead and letting the clock jog along
synchronized as nearly as possible with the sun.
This lasted about two weeks, and then folks
began to tire of it. Popular protests were raised,
and' finally the big business houses went back
to the old schedule. Slowly, others swung into
line, and when the merry month of May merges
into that of sunshine and roses, brides and sweet
girl graduates, daylight saving in the capital of
the nation will be one with the Keeley motor, a
memory to cause a smile.
The republican nominee for United States
senator from Indiana, Mr. Beveridge, remarks
that "America is to be congratulated on a record
so splendid" as that of the Harding, administra
tion. There is little comfort there tor those who
professed to see a "rebuke" to the president in
the Beveridge nomination. ' ,
Someone calculates that the reduced rail rates
will mean $10 to each man, woman and child in
the country. Most of them could use the ten-spot.
Kansas democrats are roaring for McAdoo in
1924 and r'arin' to go. Now, if Texas will only
pick the republican candidate, the raee is on.

The ConwrvaUvo College ftudrnt.
Free) lb ChtMUa Vier Hreiiar.
In th rours of th In'erchang of rourtetli
betwixt American and foreign unlvereltiea. no
subject ha aeemed to interent foreign educator,
who viait th college of th l'nitd PUte, mor
than what they commonly regard a th ultra
conservattam of th aiudenia. In Kurop on
th continent. t lt for a century or more
th atudent body ha alway been a radical body,
often a revolutionary body. It wa atudeni
who formed th nurleu for the revolutionary
ctivltiea which overran F:uropj In 1H8. Stu
dent Rentlment wa a I wave the firm baaia for th
teady, continuous revolutionary oppoeition to

lowed Garibaldi. All th way from Copenhagen
to Rome the college have been th hotbeds of
radtcaliam. and th proponents of what those
comfortably Initialled In power ar accuetomed
to call Incendiary and sedition Ideas.
But in th two great Anglo-8axon countries.
In England and in the' United Ptatea. the col
lege ar th cradles of conservatism. In the
United State radical reformera have long lnc
ceaeed to look to th colleges.
In ttle last number of th Revue dea Deux
Mondea, a French professor, who ha been lec
turing in the I'nited State, a-s: "My experi
ence is that in the things of the mind the Amer
ican student la too docile. . . . I have some
time wished to encounter more resistance to
my idea, less admiring submission. It la a
curious thing that young men, capable of throw
ing themselves madly into battle, these born ad
venturers who find fierce delight in surmounting
real obstacles, are almost pusillanimous when
they have to engage In a struggle with Ideas."
The explanation which may readily be of
fered, that in Europe there are very real evil
to be combated, while In America there are few
if any, does not seem altogether convincing. No
observer of world-wide Intellectual movement
can fall to be puzzled by the difference in these
classes of Intellectual opinion.

Sentimental Songs.
From th, I'hlcjo Journal of Commerce.
All the time this country is humming or
whistling some popular song usually a senti
mental one that works its way into final for
getfulness through every stratum of society.
Away back in the 60's we had "Shoo Fly"
and "Capt. Jinks." In the 70 s "Mollie Darling"
swept the country. In the 80's "Sweet Violets"
waa thrummed on every guitar in the land.
What was it in the 90's? "Annie Rooney,"
maybe. We heed not mention the songs of the
two decades past, but in the present one we
have two of powerful attraction, both in theme
and music. There's "Let the Rest of the World
Go By." Its appeal seems universal. .We quote:
It the future too hold jurt ttnifiln for fold
While the real world wait, outside t
With tome one like you. a pal good and true.
I'd like to leaiMt all hehlnd, and to and find
Some place tbat'a knotm. to God. aione, .

Out thero beneath the Western ear:
We'll build a little neBt somewhere In the Weat
And let the rest of the world go by.
The universal desire and quest inde
pendence, security and freedom from the world's
competitions! We all want it and hope for; it,
as well as the consummation of that other senti
mental favorite: . . , ..
" ' There's a long, long trail a-wtndlng

Where the nightingales are singing , '
And a bright moon beams;
There's a long, long night of wilting

. ' -That long, long trail with you.
"With you." The keynote of young love and
of all love. Nothing much really matters much
except true human companionship. ; . . v
Brands for Automobiles.
From the Btitrala. Express.
Branding of automobiles, sometimes after the
manner in which ranch animals are branded in
the west, is suggested by District Attorney Ban
ton of New York as a means of checking the
thefts. He wants some sort of permanent mark
placed on every car a mark that can not easily
be changed or extinguished. Incidentally he
would compel the registration of all cars with
a federal bureau and compel registration of all
mortgages on these cars. For this service a
small fee .would be charged. -
. It is a good idea if Mr. Ban ton can suggest
a means Of permanent marking that will be im
possible to change or extinguish and which, at
the same time, will not spoil the appearance of
a car. The marking would have to be con
spicuous to be of any vAlue and to be irremov
able or, unchangable must be impressed deeply
in the body of the car. The man who pays
several thousands for a custom built body, or
even the flivver owner who likes to keep his car
clean, will not want to mar the body of the car
in the hope that a thief will pass' it by.
Moreover, most automobilists will object to
the idea that the marking and the registration
of the odd mortgage or two Will necessitate the
federal government's charging a small fee. The
small fee will open a new souce of taxation for
congress. If anyone is already taxed too highly
it is the motorist He pays, a greater number of
taxes than any other person in the community.
Censorship From Within.
From the Minneapolii Journal.
The Motion Picture Theater Owners of Amer
ica are to be commended for the decision to re
fuse to show any films in which Peggy Joyce 1
featured. That is the kind of censorship that
counts. It shows that the theater operators are
beginning to hold their business in high regard
and do not intend to have it injured by exploita
tion of scandal makers.
Such a policy will assure the theater owner
of the approval and co-operation of that ele
ment in American life which lookes upon the
pandering to sensationalism and immorality as
injurious to the general welfare.
Scandal has shaken the movie industry to its
foundations. Its leaders have seen the light and
in every quarter of the film world there is a
sincere endeavor to put the industry on a sound
moral basis. The public should encourage this
policy and lend its support to the producers of
high quality pictures.
; ' Bordering on the Asinine.
From the FhiltdelphU Inquirer.
And speaking of hairline decisions that bor

internal revenue to the effect that wine can not

"not a fruit," comes pretty close to reaching one
of the high spots in ridiculous discrimination.

about construction methods; or. in
other words, that it will acquiesce
