LAWYER, PREACHER. PHILOSOPHER Lyman Abbott active life panned period of world activity that In all way, intellectual or ma- terial, cultural or industrial, outihone any similar number of year In the history of the world. He had been a participant in or spectator to the ; astounding discoverle and marveloua Invention f- that have set the Twentieth century properly at the head of all the centurie. Religion, cience, art, y. literature, politic, every form of human activity, ' wa immensely stimulated during the time of thi man, and man' intellect and energy brought forth f I wonder. ,v f .' What ihare did Lyaman Abbott have in thi work? J. He wa first a tudcnt, then a lawyer, then a min isler of the gospel, and finally a great editor and i philosopher. A logical mind, which had been thor oughly opened, and which never lost it receptivity, waa devoted to the examination and analysis of all the great problems that arose from time to time, ond a clear vision that reflected abundant faith, illuminated the writings and utterance of thi re markable man, who refused to part with hi genial sweotnes merely because day passed in swift flight, feach bearing him a little further toward the end. His work wa not that nf a Anvr nnr did V. .- sume the austerity of a eerj his lntcret in the af- ; fair of men wa healthy and active, hi opinion rea- Lbraska ha the least, soned but not dogmatic. Such an intellectual giant is not often met, and seldom wholly appraised by hi generation. Lyman Abbott wa about the last 'Of a brilliant group, whole light (hone with luch benefit over American thought in the day during and after the Civil war; he was spared to cover the end of one and the opening of another great era of human development, and he wa able to hold his warm human sympathy ' for things around him, to the last. Our line of thinker is continuous, just as is the race of creators, so that the passing of one does not denote an end to thought or advance. Yet even this doe not lessen regret at the going of one who wa so useful lit his way as was Dr. Lyman Ab bott, kindly, genial, foe only of sham, and friend to man in all his efforts to rise. . t:: t It- i: r. t: STUDYING NEBRASKA IN THE SCHOOLS. The ignorance of Nebraskan upon the subject of Nebraska is really appalling. While it i true that the history of Nebraska I being taught in a desultory way, it is equally true that not enough emphasi is placed upon that sNjdy, nor is the text book provided sufficient. ' Every school child in Nebraska should be taught to the fullest possible extent the glorious history of this commonwealth and the wonderful possibili ties it possesses. Such instruction would build for better citizenship because it would develop a pa triotism that would knit them to the soil. Born of the titanic struggle over slavery, Nebraska wa n the fullest sense of the term a "soldier state." Fifty years ago its population was less than a hundred thousand, and seven-tenth of it Inhab it nts were within fifty mile of the Missouri river. Men and women who have not yet reached three score and ten can remember when their school geographies described three-fourth of Nebraska as belonging to "The Great American Desert," and marked it as uninhabitable. And yet, within the hhorf; span of half a century a people whose en terprise has been beyond compare have wrested this commonwealth from the desert and ma'de it possible for Nebraska to set record of development' unr'nualcd in history. It produces more agricultural wealth per capita than any other state. Its. per capita of farm wealth exceed that of any other state. It stands at the very head of education. In short, of all things good, Nebraska ha the most; of thing bad, Nc A New Romance by Basil King Hero Marries for Spite in "The Dust Flower." bureiy a date with luch a record, and with a future so Inspiring, should be more carefuly studictl by its own people. Would it not be a good idea to pay just a little less attention to ancient history, less attention to study of ancient Tyre and Sidon, Babylon and Greece and Rome, and give consider ably more attention to studying the history and be coming more familiar with the glories of our own magnificent commonwealth? SHALL THE CLOCK BE SILENCED ? I the tickless clock, exhibited by a German en gineer at Berlin, a "boon to humanity," as described by the correspondent who forwards the news to America? Shall the boys and gfrls of 1950 wonder what I meant by phrases which tell of life's seconds being ticked off, or any of the countless allusions to the ticking of the clock in literature, poetry or prose, where the silencers broken only by the sound mentioned? In what words will the "sob reporter" of the period tell of the passing of thf last hour of the condemned criminal,if he is not permitted to tick them off? Will baby be comforted when grandpa distracts his attention by holding a sound less watch to his ear? s What about the uneasy sleeper who lulls him self to slumber by tryirwg to fit words to the monotonous "tick, tock," that records the passage of the weary hours, or the impatient schoolboy, who notes the slow drag of the last five minutes by the same steady note? Man records only the flight of time, for he has no command, of even one tick of the clock In advance, tat the pendulum records lor him his progress to the day when time shall end so far as he is concerned. The tick is monotonous, merciless, inevitable, in this sense. Yet it is also an inspiration, for it urges us on by feminding us that "Art Is longj and time Is fleeting, And our hearts, though stout and brave.. Still like muffled drums are beating , Funeral mnrche to the grave." From the measured candle, the clepsydra, and the primitive list of time-recording machines and devices, man has clung with fondness to the clock that ticks. It wa the German who gave us the cuckoo clock; now is he going to destroy one of our institution by eliminating the cheeriest sound that breaks the stillness of a quiet night at home? Think how you will miss the clock's tick when you awaken in the blackness of the "wee, sma,' hours ayont the twal," and thank your star for the Yan kee clockmaker, whose pendulum wing with a noise like the crack of doom. a all FRANKLIN K. LANE'S LETTERS. Franklin Knight Lane was the one really con structive element in either of President Wilson's cabinet. His service prior to entering the cabinet had been of high order, and hi work a ecretary of the Interior gained for him still more of general approbation. Twice appointed by republican presi dent to a place on the Interstate Commerce com mission, he yet remained a staunch democrat, and steadfastly supported President Wilson in his po litical leadership. His letters, just published by his wife, are the most valuable of any of the contributions to his tory from members of the Wilson cabinets. Chiefly this is true because the publication is p.thumu, and no tvpreaaion of the writer ran be twisted into an effort at jutttflcetioa of hi attitude toward bis chief. Mr. Lane did not !wy agre with the pres ident. particaUrly en she ceurie to be pursued prior t America' entrance Inte the war, but his dis afreements did ( bad b m to the talent f cp f4tnf the !aa ef the OMUe.

Omaha is a long way from Broadway, but a radio wave may travel the distance; it is even pos sible that suggestion from Omaha may have some weight amortg the powers that be in the world of the theater down there. This is offered for what it is worth. Many so-called modern plays have proved fail ures or at bett short-lived successes. Their appeal has not been such as to meet the call of the pub lic's restless mood. A rather disquieting thought is that the plays which have endured are those marked by a definite quality of depression of mood. Pretending to discuss life in terms of actuality, they take up only some detached episode, plausible enough, yet showing but a glimpse and not a cross section of society. Such dramatic clinic serve a purpose, but they do not satisfy. Recourse is had to revivals to fill out the gaps that are left by want of new material, and, not at all strange, some of these revivals are proving realty successful. Particularly on the screen have plays of a few years ago found joyous welcome from the multitude, most of whom had never seen the drama offered in any form. This thought leads to the sug gestion that more of these ploys might be resur rected and made use of. "Pudd'n'head Wilson" is one in mind. It was shown in Omaha by Frank Mayo and a splendid company a quarter of a century ago; it practically dropped out when Mayo died, but it might well be revived now. Few comedies ever equaled it from the standpoint of dramatic excellence, it has an his toric background, and Is of such social value as to be serviceable in any epoch. Mark Twain's book still is read and enjoyed, and it does not require a prophetic gift to foretell public interest renewed In the play made by the author and Frank Mayo from that book. Dave Wilson and the Wise Men of Daw son Landing would be heartily greeted by folks who go to the theater for pleasure. THE BASIC PRINCIPLE. A few evening ago we listened to a speaker who ably addressed us on present world conditions. He stated, and we think his statement is accepted by all thinking people, that the only remedy for the ills of society is Love as taught nineteen hundred years ago by the Man of Galilee. Since we know that Love is the only remedy, why do we withhold it from the suffering patient; why not hasten to administer it generously that health may come flooding back to the weakened body and feebly beating heart? Why do we hesi-tate? Because with this remedy, as I often the case with remedie in the medical world, there 1 a prin ciple therein that we shrink from swallowing be cause it is unpleasant to the taste. In this case the principle 1 Self-Denial; for, after all. the basic principle of Love, the thing that make Love possi ble1 I a willingness to forget ourselvea for the bene fit of others! it is the acid tt of our affections. J Life is a "give and take" proposition; it is maaa up of many sacrifices of desires and ambition, and a individuals and nation we mut learn to con. tribute our share of Self Denial before we are en- titled to partake of the contribution of others, or before we demand that other make that contribu tion. Did not the great Teacher of 1 eve say that if any man will follow M let Him deny lume!f, and take up hie crwa?' .

"I haven't married anyone a yet." "lint you are going to marry me, I presume." "Considering the fact, that' a great deal In the way of presump tion, Isn't It?" "Jf It's so much presumption as all that," he demanded, "what1 the meaning of that ring?" "Oh, I don't have to go on wear Inu It," Crossing the room, she pulled It off and held It out toward him. "Do you want It back?" Then we are told that the ring fell to the floor, and he called her an old maid, which she readily admitted He refused to retrieve the ring, and be told her that he was "going to the devil," literally, and that she would have it Upon her head. He said he would go out und marry the flrnt woman who would accept his pro posal. He went. We read: "Hoeing with her own eye to what he, had driven him, her heart would be wrung. That wa all he asked for, the wringing of her heart. It would be a mad thing for him to punish himself so terri bly Just to punish her, but he was mad, anyhow. ... It was all that life had left for him." Well dressed, reflecting a atudled selection of hat, stick and gloves; Imposing in appearance, though per turbed, and with lck mind and anguished face, he decided that "age," appearance, reflnerniint, or vulgarity," were not to bo considered in hla strange quest for ft woman who would marry him. He wouldn't pick and choose; ha would take them as they come. Risll King' men always make good, nashlelgh did in this venture, although he encountered several re buffs. To quote: She waa a red-faced woman, crowned with a bonnet introduced by Mrs. Lanfftry In 1878, but worn on this occasion with some degrees off center. On her arm she carried a basket, of which the contents, de cently covered with a towel, might have been freshly laundered shirt. Being stopped by a gentleman of Allerton's impresslveness and plain ly suffering expression, her face grew motherly and sympathetic. " 'Madam, I wish to ask if you'll marry me?' " "Even a dull brain couldn't fnll to catch the words hammered out with thi force of precision. The woman didn't wait to have them re peated. Dropping her basket as It waa, she took to flight. Flight wo the word. A modern Atalanta of Wellesley or Ilryn Mawr might have envied the chamois leapa which took the good creature across the grasa to the protection of a man with a lawn mower." Ha suffered a second and a third re buff and, then along cam I-etty, who on the morning of that day had been turned out of her home by a cruel stepfather. Fortunately for the pur pose of thi story, Letty aat on an end of a certain bench in a certain park, and Kaahlelgh ant on th other end of th Mini Vnch In tb same park.

It nas a niHtinct unvuntage over other puwicatlons that dea with the snh. ject or tno Wilson cabinets, for it contents are made up from documents not written for public perusal. Nor had the writer quarreled with the president at any time, so there wa tio-nd for hla setting out to prove nis own case at tne expense of the ex eoutlw. Any crltlclain of nolicv tiur sued, therefore, la the expression of a man wno (llfTered with his chief In opinion, but whose aense of loyalty to his superior is strong enough to hold him to the course, and thla he could do without sacrifice of anv nart oi ni own sensibility.

He comes out right, but is slower than a glacier ana tnings are mighty disagreeable when anything has to be done." This h perhaps the neverest stricture Mr. Lane passed on Mr. Wilson. Generally the war period Is dealt with In similarly open fashion, for the secretary was writing to those he could trust and to whom he could open his heart. Other letters show the many sidednesa of the man, his keen Interest" In general politic and me orrairs or tne world, and his ten- der sympathy for those in distress. His own beliefs he discloses with freedom and clarity, so that those who really knew him were not at all sur prised at the message found unfin ished at III bedside, when ha'paae'd on during th liiB'bt of May 17, I'.OI In her preface, Mr. Ijiii' tH of her husband letter writing liuhlla; "Hi letter are peculiarly auto biographical, fur whenever hi active mind wa engaged on some personal, political or philoaopulc.il probhm, his., thought turned nsturully to that friend with whom he would most Ilka to dis cuss the subject, and If he could possibly make the time, to him he wrote Just what thought raced through hi mind. ...
