    THE PRESIDENT'S SPEECH
FRANCS CLIMB, BUT
TWO DEAD BUTTERFLIES
VOLTAIRE’S BAD
SERVANTS
^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
Mr. Daugherty announces that
Mr. Harding’s next campaign will
be managed on the same lines as
the last. That's good news, for
the last campaign was run on a
“no mixup with Europe basis” and
was quite a success, winning with
7,000,000 votes to spare.
Mr. Harding is “thinking up" his
speeches soon to be made through
out the country. A humble jour
nalistic worm would recommend
his opening:
“Fellow citizens, I promised to
keep you out of the league. I have
done it, nnd I’m still against that
democratic European propaganda
nonsense. We have half of the
gold and about all the sound credit
in the world. Europe does not like
us, naturally, for she is our debtor.
But she dare not quarrel with us;
while we keep aloof she would like
a partnership with us, the closer
the better. Re-elect me and I’ll see
to it that Uncle Sam takes in no
bankrupt partners.”
The world’s money markets be
lieve that France is winning in the
Bhur. That is why francs climbed
to 6.80 yesterday, dragging Bel
gian and Italian money up with
them.
But France is borrowing 15,000,
000,(tOO francs, three times the
sum Bismarck took from her. With
all respect for bankers that deal in
bonds and sell them at a profit,
the public should be cautious about
buying foreign bonds for awhile.
How much would any bank lend
a business concern if that concern
were running behind billions a
year in its overhead expenses?
New York City reports “another
Broadway butterfly dead.” A wild
drinking party, at which large
quantities of liquor were con
sumed and the women guests sub
mitted to rough handling. That’s
the brief police statement.
The “whisky without a cross
word in a burrel of it” seems lack
ing at modern parties. Mrs.
Beckwith, unfortunate victim of
the last “jollification” under pro
hibition, died in the hospital, her
body badly bruised and injured in
ternally.
The other “butterfly," Dorothy
Keenan, was chloroformed, the po
lice say, “by a cheap crook, who
got not only money for himself,
but gay clothes for his gal.” The
criminal took the girl’s dress, hat
and gray squirrel fur coat. Some
where the killer and his “butter
fly” are traveling with that cloth
ing. No need to go to Africa to
see tho jungle or its beasts.
Magistrate Weil sent Mike Eidel
to jail for 10 days—and out of
his own pocket paid to Eidel’s
family the amount Eidel would
have earned had he not been sent
to jail. That's justice and charity
combined.
Voltaire, learning that some of
his servants had robbed him,
warned them to flee and sent them
money for expenses because, as he
said:
“If they are accused I shall not
have influence enough to save
tlmm from being hanged.”
They h; d men for petty
theft in that days. The French
revolution stopped that, in Franee
and elsewhere, and Voltaire, more
than any other man, and to his
• ternal glory, made that revolu
tion.
Phillip Snowden, labor and com
munist. member of Great Britain’s
parliament, wants to change every
thing, eliminating the capitalistic
system, because, he says, “88 per
cent of Britain’s wealth is owned
by 2' per cent of Britain’s popu
lation.”
Capitalists will wonder how the
07 Vz per cent manage to get their
12 per cent of the wealth. They
will remind Mr. Snowden that les’
than 2% per cent of his total bod
ily weight “owns" 100 per cent of'
his intelligence.
The English are wise in this:
They are willing to listen. The
English parliament pays close and
patient attention to a debate advo
cating a socialist form of govern
ment for Great Britain, denounc
ing the capitalistic form of govern
ment as a failure, etc. Imagine
that in the United States congress.
There will not he any socialist
government in England for a long
time. The English avoid trouble,
rot by locking up those that say
what they think, but by listening
to what they have to say and an
swering it. Here we lock them
up. Which is wiser time will tell.
One hundred and thirty-five
German female cooks, thoroughly
trained, arrived in America yester
day. They will work for $50 a
month. That amounts to 100,000
mark in German money. Before
the war a good young German
, ,ok could have beep hired in Ger
many for 80 marks. The kaiser
surely raised wages—in marks.

Now, a Quick
Quaker Oats
Cooks in 3 to 5 munatms
The quidiMt cootimg osts la the ■«vU
Now your grocer has Quakrr
Oats in two styles. One the kind
you have always known—the other
is Quirk Quaker.
Quit k Quaker cooks in from .1 to
5 minutes. And it cooks to prrtrr
tion. So it is almost like a ready
cooked dish.
No other oat flakes on the market
cook anywhere near at) quickly.
The two stylca are identical in
quality and flavor. Both are flaked
from the finest gTains only—just the
rich, plump, fiavory oats. A bushel
of choice oats yields hut ten pounds
of these delicious flakes.
But in Quirk Quakrr the oats are
rut before flaking They are rolled
very thin and partly cooked. So the
flakrs are smaller and thinner—that
is all. And those small, thin flakes
cook quickly.
Ask for Quirk Qitatrer if you want
this style. Your grocer has both.
Hut alway* get Quaker OaU for
their delightful flavor.

State Losing on Leghorn
Lggs. Says Produce Man
Sparia] IH.pntrh to The Omaha Baa.
Columbus, Neb , March 22 —Ne
braska farmers are losing thousands
of dollars each year by insisting on
raising I/eghorn chicken breeds for
egg and market purposes, according
to W. W. Witter, manager of the
Swift * Co. produce house here.
Mr. Witter sa>s that one fourth of
the Platte valley farmers are raising
Leghorn chickens, and that as a result
the egg markets of the state of Ne
braska as compared wit It Iowa and
Missouri, where the heavier breeds
predominate, are quoted a cent lower
on the dozen on the eastern markets,
because Leghorn eggs weigh an
eighth of a pound to the dozen less
than those of the heavy breeds. He
says that the meat, being of coarser
grain, also Is not In as much de
mand.
Mr. Witter states Plymouth Rocks
are the best In market demand and
that farmers should raise this breed
and Orpingtons and Rhode Island
Reds equally In number In the state.

a thousand school children enjoyed
a half holiday today as a result of
a prank played by an unidentified

whistle sounded, calling off school.
In the past, during unusually
stormy weather, students were in

apparently gave some mischievous
youth an idea this morning, when
he saw a light flurry of snow cover

Superintendent F. I,. Burrell re
ceived tile phone rill and believed
that the order had been sent by Su
perintendent \Vatei'house. He imme
diately ordered the signal sounded. As
a result, the students celebrated a
half holiday.
A new system of sounding the
storm signal Is to bo installed.
