    Gutzon Borglum
Air Enthusiast;
in Omaha for Day
—
.Voted Sculptor, Here for Wed
ding, Charges Clique Has
Been Retarding Pro
gress in Flying.
Gutzon Borglum. noted sculptor,
here for the wedding of his niece,
Miss Dorothy Darlow, spent the day
visiting boyhood scenes and meeting
old friends.
He is a man of decided views and
he doesn't "mince words." Although
one of the lending sculptors of the
world, he takes an active interest in
nalional politics and aeronautics.
"I am a republican,” he said, "but
1 do my own thinking."
Here are some of his terse state
ments on current topics:
“Our soldier hoys were killed like
flies during the war because of de
fective airplanes."
“John Larsen, the airplane build
er, was dishonestly treated In the
air race held in Omaha In 1921."
"The Liberty engine, and Its
building, was at the bottom of all
of the aeronautic scandal following
the war.”
Clique Charged.
"A clique of big manufacturers
of airplanes Is retarding the devel
opment and progress of flying be
cause of Its selfish desire to con
trol airplane building.”
"It is inconceivable that Mr. Lar
sen is guilty of the charges made
that he set fire to his airplane
, hangar in New York in order to
collect Insurance. Mr. Larsen is a
rich man and doesn't need the
mrthey.’’
Mr. Larsen, who is kell known in
Omaha, and Mr. Bdrglum are very
dose friends.
Mr. Borglum was an investigator
for former President Wilson into the
alleged government aeronautic scan
dals.
To Stump Against Preus.
The mysterious lure of politics and
the love for principle Is taking
tlim from his great work on
Stone mountain to Minnesota, where
he will ‘‘stump" the state against J.
A. O. Preus. one of the candidates for
senator, Mr, Borglum said.
"I am going to be interested in poli
tics until I die," he said.
The noted gculptor arrived here las:
night to attend the wedding of his
niece, Miss Dorothy Darlow, daughter
of Mrs. Alfred Darlow, to Robert It.
Troys r, Omaha attorney.
Family Here Also.
Hs. was accompanied from Atlanta,
Ga., where he is carving a bas-relief
on the aide of Stone mountain, by his
wife and two children, Lincoln, 11,
and Mary Ellis, *1.
"I favor such men as Howell and
Norris of Nebraska," said Mr. Bor

glum. "They are a credit to this
state."
He said that Magnus Johnson, the
republican who Is running on the
farmer-labor ticket In opposition to
Preus, should be the senator from
Minnesota.
"I am going to Minnesota tonight
right after the wedding and will delay
work on my great task on Stone
mountain to herald the interpreta
tions of my republican principles to
the people of Minnesota.”
Overlook Farmer*.
Mr. Borglum said the conservatives
of both major political parties are not
working in the interests of the farm
er.
"I am going to battle In the poli
tical arena in the interest of the
farmer,” said the famous sculptor.
He said that after spending a few
days in Minnesota he will return to
his work on Stone mountain and Just
before the Minnesota election he ^ill
leave his sculpture work and again
take the “stump.”
“I heard that Harding was going
to speak in favor of Preus and I tefld
the president 1 would have to op
pose him, even though we are. warm
personal friends,” Borglum said.
Former Omalian.
Mr. Borglum resided here until he
was 16 years old. He is a brother of
Mrs. Darlow, mother of today’s bride.
“I love to return to Omaha, for it
brings back to me those memories of
my youth,” said Mr. Borglum.
His appearance was that of
a successful business man, rather
than an internationally noted sculp
tor.
On his arrival Wednesday night he
embraced his niece with a "Hello,
Skinny,” salutation, and while
he discussed family news with Mrs.
Darlow, he talked politics and art
with the newspaper men. Two broth
ers, Arnold and A. M. Borglum, also
reside here.
"He's a regular fellah,” said the
colored porter of his car to other pas
sengers as they were departing.
Borglum and his brother, the late
Solon Borglum, produced works that
won them recognition in art circles In
all parts of the world.
Generals Are Shown.
The bas-relief will show Robert E.
Lee, Stonewall Jackson and others in
cavalry formation. The work is being
carried on under the auspices of the
Women of the Confederacy.
Mr. Borglum said he has begun the
actual carving of the face of General
Lee.
"This figure is 137 feet high,” he
said, “and is 300 fpet front the ground.
I am lowered to my position by an
elevator, the same kind that is used
in office buildings. The complete
work will be 1,100 feet in length and
it will take 10 years to complete.”
The head of the horse on which
Lee Is seated is 60 feet from ear to
nostrils.
Anti-War Demonstration
Will Be Held in England
London, June 21.—Saturday, July
28, the anniversary of the outbreak
of the world war, has been fixed for
huge disarmament demonstrations
throughout Great Britain, when rep
resentations of all classes and creeds
will demand that there shall be "no
more war.” The decision for this
demonstration was arrived at unani
mously by a conference representative

brotherhoods and women's organiza
tions.

Stories
By THORNTON W. Bl'RGESS.
A Brave and (’lever Little Mother. '
There’# naeht on earth nor up above
That’* greater than a mother’# love.
—Old Mother Nature.
Up the I.one Little Path shuffled
Mother Bear, and behind her, run
ning from one side to the other,
were her three cubs. Safe himself
where In an Instant he could pop
Into a hole under a great stump,
Peter Rabbi* now thought of Mrs.
Grouse and her twelve babies. He
knew that Mrs. Grouse was safe
enough, for she could take to her
stout wings. But what about these
darling little babies? He knew that
they were hiding under the brown
leaves on either side of the Lone
Little Path, each one flat on the
ground and motionless. They would
be safe enough if Mother Bear and
the three cubs remained in the Lone
Little Path.
But those cubs were running back
and forth across the Lone Little
Path and poking about in the leaves
on either side. If they did that
where the bahy Grouse were hiding,
they would be almost sure to find
one or more of them with their
keen little noses. Even If they didn’t
lind those babies, they might step
on some of them and kill them.
Peter became very much worried.
How dreadful It would be to have
anything like that happen!
He looked at Mrs. Grouse, and
was Just in time to see her rise
swiftly Into the air. Usually when'
Mrs. Grouse (lies she makes a loud
whirr with her wings as she rises.
She didn’t this time. She went into
*
Instantly the three little Hears started
for her
the air almost silently. Straight to
ward the Bear family she flew, and
then as she drew near them swung
off to one side and dropped down to
the ground. There she began to
flutter and flop about as If ' badly
hurt. Of course, this made a loud
rustling of the dry leaves on the
ground.
Of course. Mother Bear's quick
ears Instantly caught the sound of
those rustling leaves and she turned
to look sharply in that direction. The
three little Bears heard that rustling
too, and of course they looked. They
saw a large, plump bird apparently
helpless and badly hurt. Instantly
the three little Bears started for her.
But Mother Bear didn't. Mother
Bear sat up and there was a twinkle
In her shrewd little eyes as she
watched the three little Bears raring
to see which would g£t to that flut
tering bird first.
Such excited little Bears as they
were! My. my, my, such excited lit
tie Bears ns they were! Mrs. Grouse
flopped and fluttered along the ground
and acted for nil the world as if one
wing waa broken. First one and then
another of the littlo Bears would
Jump for her, nnd each time she bare
ly fluttered out of reach.
Mother Bear rocked from side to
side ns she watched, and It seemed
to Peter Rabbit that she was grin
ning. Certainly she was very much
interested, but she made no move
to go help the little Bears catch
Mrs Grouse. Once I.ittlest Bear ac
tually touched the tall feathers of Mrs.
Grouse. ‘Tve got her!" she squealed.
But she hadn't got her. Somehow
Mrs. Grouse managed to flop along
without losing even one of those tail
feathers. The three little Bears got
In each other's way. They ran and
Jumped and did their best to pounce
on poor Mrs. Grouse, and time and
again It looked as If they must suc
ceed. But always Mrs. Grouse flut
tered away.
All the time Mrs. Grouse and the
three little Bears were going away
from the place where the twelve
baby Grouse were hiding. Presently
they were out of sight, though Peter
could still hear the excited little Bears
as they tried to catch Mrs. Grouse.
After a while Peter heard the distant
roar of stout wings, and a couple of
minutes later he caught a glimpse of
Mrs. Grouse as she alighted In a tree
on the hill above him. She had sim
ply beer, fooHng those little Bears and
lending them away from where her
babies were.

Perfect Obedience.''

What are the morals of the city? J
Of the small town? Is your idea of morality like your
neighbor’s? Can ther? be one standard of morality for us all?
Here is a great question discussed from many view points
by Gene Stratton - Porter, Coningsby Dawson and others.
Morality in the small town
The small town has its own conception of morality. And the most popular
author in the world has written her best novel about it. Gene Stratton
Porter’s “The White Flag’’ pitilessly reveals the moral outlook of the small
town, its guarded secrets, its amazing hypocrisy. It strips the big town s
accusers of their pretense. Start this novel in July Good Housekeeping.
Morality in the city
Society is searching for new thrills. Life in the big city every day becomes
more artificial. Does this artificiality tend to destroy the home and make
marriage less binding? Docs it make marriage rarer? Comngsby Dawson
has turned the search-light of his observation and brilliant story-telling
ability on the question and the result is a novel of inescapable significance.
Start "The Coast of Folly" in July Good Housekeeping. It is a flaming
protest—and a warning to every girl who ventures on its treacherous shore.
The morality of marriage
What is it that sets women by the thousands falling in love with other
women’s husbands or lovers? What makes men seek out other men's wives?
Here is another aspect of morality—turned inside out. Read this thought
provoking article “Crying for the Moon’’ in July Good Housekeeping.
What is the answer?
The world is completely upset. Where and how will it end? Three authors
in a single issue of Good Housekeeping approach this great and absorbing
question from separate angles, each showing a different side. See how their
analyses coincide—or disagree with yours.
