Wo can't do too ^nucli to add beauty and warmtjf to our homes," said Rev. J. Clyde Mahaffey, pastor "f the First Presbyterian church. "In tluence of the home on young people is much greater than is generally \ realised. The home is a vital factor to civilization. I would say the h' ! is one of the most sacred, yes, lie most sacred of cjur institutions. For, if the home goes, everything goes." "There Is no question about the worth of the Better Homes exposition idea,” said Rev, Frank G. Smith, pas inr of the First Central Congrega tional church. "I believe we are in creasingly learning to understand how ne's environment affects, even physi ■ ally. A recent public school nuisi • a! memory contest revealed the fact that by giving pupils a chance to hear better music a taste for the best mu sic is cultivated in them. The influ ence of the RettFr Homes exposition should be tile same. It isn't a ques tion of how much is spent in inte rior Decoration and furnishing, hut "f how muc li taste is used in select- I iug things for the home."

"The exhibition should j help the thousands to make their ; homes what they should he.” "The average person hasn't time to i study home decoration." said Rev. j Patrick J.

It should , give people valuable ideas about mak- , ing their environment more attract ive." Omaha is a home loving city." said Rev.

(Continued f.-oni Yesterday.)1 CHAPTER IX. One bright June day Mr. Wheeler parked his car in a line of motors before the new pressed brick court house in Frankfort. The court house stood in an open square, surrounded by a grove of cottonwoods. The lawn was freshly cut .and the flower beds were blooming When Mr. Wheeler entered the courtroom up stairs, it was already half full of farmers and townspeople, talking in iow tones wh(le the summer flies buzzed iii and out of the open win dows. The judge, a one-armed man. with white hair and side-whiskers, sat at lrs desk, writing with his left hand. He was an old settler in Frankfort county, but from Ills frock coat and courtly manners you might have thought he had come from Ken* tucky yesterday instead of 30 years ago. He was to hear this morning a charge of disloyalty brought against two German farmers. One of the ac cused was August Voeder. the Wheel ers’ nearest neighbor, and the other was Troilus Oberlies. a rich German from the north* rn part of the county. Oberlies owned a beautiful farm and lived in a big white house set on a hill, with a fine orchard, rows of beehives, barns, granaries and poul try yards. He raised turkeys and tumbler-pigeons, and many geese and ducks swnni about on his cat'le ponds. lie used to boast that he bad six sons, "like our German em peror.’’ His neighbors were proud of his place, and ijolnted it out to strangers. They told how Oberlies had come to Frankfort county* a poor man. and had made hi* fortune by his industry nud intelligence. He had twice crossed the ocean to re-visit his fatherland. and when he returned to his home on the prairies he brought presents for etery one: his lawyer, his banker, and the mer chants with whom he dealt in Frank fort and Viscount. Each uf his neigh bors had in his parlor some piece of woodcarting or weaving, or some in genious mechanical toy that Olieriles had picked up in Germany. He was an older man than Voeder. wore a short heard that was white and curly, like his hair, and though he was low in stature, his puffy red face and full blue eye«. and a certain swagger about his carriage, gat e him a look of importance. He was boastful and quick-temper»d. hut until the war broke out in Europe nobody had ever had any trouble with him. Since then he had constantly found fault and complained—everything was better in tlie old country. Mr. Wheeler had come 10 town pre pared to l»nd Voeder a hand If he needed one. They had worked adjoin ing fields for 30 years now. He was ; surprised that his neighbor bad got ■ into trouble. He was not a blusterer, like Oberlies, but a big. quiet muu, with a serious, large-featured face, am] ii stern mouth that seldom, opened. His countenance might have j been cut out of red sandstone, it was ho heavy and lixed. He and Olierlies i sat Oil two wooden chairs outside the railing of the judge's desk. Presently the judge stopped writing and said he would hear the charges j against Troilus Oberlles. Heverel neighbors took the stand in succee- j nion; their complaints were confused and almost humorous. Oberlies had said the United States would he licked, and that would be a good thing: America was a great country, but it was run by fools, and to be governed by Germany was the best thing that could happen to it. The witness went on to say that since Oberlies had made his money in this country— Here the Judge Interrupted him. “Please confine yourself to state- : rnents ^vhlch you consider disloyal, made In your presence by the defend ant.” While the witness proceeded, the judge took off Ills glasses and laid them on the desk and began to polish the lenses with a silk handker chief. trying them, and rubbing them again, as if he desired to see clearly. A second witness had heard CHier lies say he hoped the German sub marines would sink a few tioopsliips; that would frighten the Americans , and teach them to stay at home and mind their own business. A third complained tliHt on Sunday after iloom-: the old man sat on his front norch and played “Die Wacht am Rhein” on a slide-from hone, to the great annoyance of his neighbors. Here Nat Wheeler slapped his knee i with a loud guffaw, and a titter ran through the courtroom. The defend ant's puffy cheeks seemed fashioned by bis Maker to give voice tp 'that piercing instrument. When asked if he had anything to say to these charges, the old man rose, threw back his shoulders, and cast a defiant glance at the court room. "Vou may take my“property and imprison me, hut I explain noth ing, and I take back nothing.” he de clared in a loud voice. The judge regarded his inkwell with a smile. "Vou mistake the nature of this occasion, Mr. Oberlies. You are not asked to recant. You are merely asked to desist from further disloyal utterances, as much for your own protection and comfort as from con sideration for the feelings of your neighbors. I will now hear the charges against Mr. Yoeder." Mr. Yoeder. a witness declared, had said lie hoped the United States would go to Hell, now that it had been bought over by England. When the witness had remarked to him that if the kaiser were shot it would end ; the war. Yoeder replied that charity i begins at home, and he wished some- i body would put a bullet tn tha presl dent. When he was railed upon. Yoeder rose and stood like a rock before the | i Ff .■'iff i. m 1 u m..

Main St 1 ^ i A Progressive Company in a progressive City judge "1 have nothing to say. The charges are true. I thought this was a country where a man could apeak his mind." "Yes, a man can speak his mind, hut even here he must take the con sequences. Sit down, please.’ The judge leaned hack in his chair, and looking at the two men in front of him. began with deliberation: “Mr. Oberlies, and .Mr. Yoeder, you both know, and your friends and neighbors know, why you are here. You have not recognized the element of ap propriateness. which must be re garded in nearly all the transactions of life; many of our civil laws are founded upon it. You have allowed a sentiment, noble in itself, to carry you away and lead you to make ex travagant statements which I am con fident neither of you mean. No man can demand that you cease from lov ing the country of your birth; but while you enjoy the benefits of this country, you should not defame its government to extol another. You both admit to utterances which l can only adjudge disloyal, t shall fine you each $3U0; a very light fine under the circumstances. If I should have occasion to fix a penalty a second time, it will be much more severe." After the case wit concluded, Mr. Wheeler Joined ills neighltors at the door and they went downstairs to gether. “Well, what do you hear from Claude?" Mr. Yoeder asked. "He's stil] at Fort R—. He expect* to get home on leave before he sails, tins, you'll have to lend me one of your boys to cultivate my corn. The weeds are getting away from me.” "Yes. you can have any of my hors —till the draft gets 'em." said Yoeder sourly "1 wouldn't worry about it. A. little military training is good for a boy. You fellows kliow that.” Mr. Wheel er winked, and Yoeder'* grim mouth twitched at one corner. That evening at supper Mr. Wheel er gave h*s wife a full account of the court hearing, so that she could write it to t'iaude. Mrs. Wheeler, always more a school teacher than a house keeper. wrote a rapid, easy hand, and her long letters to Claude report ed all the neighborhood doing*. Mr. Wheeler furnished much of the ma teria) for them. Hike many long married men he had fallen into the way of withholding neighborhood news from his wife. Rut since Claude went away he reported to her everything in Which he thought the boy would be Interested.

The Big Brother. Henry was 19 and his little brother was 6. Henry took a big brother's in teresl In his younger brother and tried to i>uS8 on the training and the admonitions that had been so gen erously bestowed on him. Little lien Was in need of them for Ills father spoiled hint dreadfully. He liad been very strict with the other children. They hud to obey >ti the instant. Their manners. their speech, their lessons were watclH-d and sharply checked up if they were below the family standard. When Ben-came along all this was changed. He didn't pretend to obey lie stamped his feet and bade defiance to anyone w*ho even suggested that he do something displeasing to his wishes. He left doors open or bang'd them, he scattered his belongings about him and refused to pick them up. He used whatever of the belong ings of the others he chose. He made wild swipes all over Nells new note book and played horse with Henry's beloved cane. At the table he wag at his worst eating with his fingers, refusing any thing he didn't fancy and reaching about for what he thought might please him. When he licked the sugar off his buttered bread Henry attempted to correct him. "Vou let him alone," thundered big father. "I'm here to correct him. Von attend to yourself and that will give you plenty to do. Vou odght to lie ashamed to pick on your little In other." Henry was angry, lie knew that i« had not been p,eking on h:s iitile brother hut that he had been trying to keep his little brother front becom ing a nuisance to himself and -o other people. "Pick on him. h<» retorted. ' why he doesn't give one a minutes peace, lie's kicked me all through dinner. lie has kicked the legs of the table until they are a sight. He ought to have on his slippers and ne won't put them on. lie's torn Nell's library and she'll have to account for it. He n>eds looking after and a |o of it." Now the fathei was angry in Ins turn.

The suggestion may start in a Cabinet meeting, in a Treasury Department statement, in a chance phrase of a press interview, but it percolates rapidly. Tho Chairman Smoot, of the Senate Finance Committee, deprecates any move to change th£ taxes at the next session of Congr^s. and the New York Times favors giving the present revenue law more time to find itself, many newspapers are in clined to think that the Senator is reckoning without his host “Oh, there's going to be a merry time when the next Congress meets in December.” gleefully exclaims a progressive Kansas paper, and an Ohio Democratic paper foresees "a bitter controversy over tax revision at the next session of Congress.” In THE LITERARY DIGEST this week. April 28th issue, new taxation suggestions that have been advanced are explained, com ment-; on the proposals of various groups in and out of Congress are presented, and the probable effect upon the people of any change in present taxation plans is pointed out.
