OCTOBER. The long-mooted question as to what is so rare as a day in June is easily answered. It is a day in October, a Nebraska October. Bright sun, crisp air, frost across tiic harvested fields, sumac, oak, maple, birch, and all manner of leaves, painted infinite colors, the thump of big, golden ears against the husker board of the wagon, < attle grazing the cured grass in the meadows and on the hills, rosy apples on the orchard trees, yellow pumpkins in the fields. E. C. Stedman’s picture suits Nebraska: "No clouds arc in the morning sky, •' Tho vapors hug the stream, Who says that life and love can die In all this northern gleam? At every turn the maples burn. The quail is whistling free, The partridge whirs, and tho frosted burs Are dropping for you and me In the clear October morning." Even hardened Californians, entranced by Ne braska s autumn, have broken down and admitted that California has nothing to equal October in Nebraska. The best of it is that October ’ usually extends through November and well up toward Christmas in Nebraska. “LITTLE ORPHANT ANNIE.” The 70th anniversary of the birth of James Whitcomb Riley comes this month and with it the news that “Little Orphant Annie” has been found. The girl who inspired Riley’s famous poem of child hood is living in Philadelphia, Ind., according to an article in Farm and Fireside for October. She is now Mrs. John W. Gray, 70 years old. Riley said of her, “She was 10 or 12 years old when she came to our house, gleeful and surprising, a slender wisp of a girl. I was 12 or 14, and worth less and freckled as a restaurant cracker. She was our Lady qf the Broom—she liked to work.’ Mrs. Gray remembers the poet as a boy better than as a mail. “He pretended to make fun of my ] tales, but he hung around all the time while 1 told them,” she says. “He W'as lazy. Him an’ work fell - out when he was born. He was a harum-scarum lad. H« had a darling mother, but he didn’t help her much. He read story books and made pictures. He was the biggest torment I ever knew, but I was a i match for him. “Sometimes he would draw ugly pictures of the i children. ‘That’s you,’ he’d say to his baby brother, handing him a picture; and‘that’s you,’ to his sister; ‘and that’s you,’ he’d say to me. And then we’d look at our pictures and whip him out of the kitchen, lie was a juggler. He would sniff gun caps up his nose and take them out of his mouth. He fooled the children but he didn't fool me.” It is a pretty picture Mrs. Gray draws of the great poet of childhood. It shows him a regular boy. And it is, probably, from that “darling mother” of his th»:t he drew the tender soul which enabled him to write such touching verse as An’ little Orphant Annie says when the blaze is blue. An’ the lamp wick sputters, an’ the wind goes woo-oo! An’ you hear the crickets quit, an' the moon is gray, An' the llghtnin’-bugs in dew Is all squenched away.— Vou better mind yer parents, an' yer teachers fond ; an' dear. An’ churish them 'at loves you, an dry the orphant'* ' tear. An’ he’p the pore an\needy ones 'at clusters all about. Kr the Gobbi' ur- '.! git you Kf you Don’t Watch Out! BUSINESS IN CHARITY. The Community Chest drive will take place next month and Omaha will then havo its charity on a business basis instead of hit-and-miss, duplicated and hodge-podge. The chest plan has many advantages over the old one. It saves an immense amount of labor hy combining all the drives into one a year, making the campaign cost, as compiled from 130 American cities, 2.69 per cent, in place of 15 to 25 per cent as under the old system. It puts the stamp of worth upon the charities and welfare activities to which the money goes. Tho givers may give freely because they know they aro not being “worked.” In the past there have been some alleged charities which were organized prin cipally for the aggrandizement of their promoters. The chest plan makes social welfare giving more democratic. It will increase the number of givers and establish in many hearts anew the altruistic im pulse of helping those less favored by fate. It will give the active welfare workers more time to devote to relief work hy relieving them of the necessity of soliciting the necessary money. The plan also includes putting efficiency into every social agency by establishing a budget system. The Community Chest is better for the bene ficiaries, the workers and the public.

Running true to its ancient reputa tion. , UP TO COUNCIL BLUFFS. ^ The citizens of Council Bluffs need a spunking and thu time is now. For the last 25 years, public improvements with a view to relieving the flood hazards in Council Bluffs, have been hashed and rehashed by city council, com mercial club, chamber of commerce, improvement clubs and what not. And for the last 25 years, the outcome of these conferences has always been the same: the cost of these improvements will go down soon ami the next generation will bo in a better position to make them than the present. Friday night’s tornado, thunder shower, or whatever the Bluffs folk may wish to call it, forcibly brought into the foreground again the inadequate sewer system of Council Bluffs and the vicious nature of Indian creek. If proper action had been taken 25 years ago, the damage from Friday night’s storm would not have been so great, and the improvements would all be paid for now. The cost to the city, to private property owners, to corporations—which in the long run means the taxpayers—from the Friday night storm will total nearly enough, before the repairs all are made, to have paid for these improvements. Forget petty squabbles over a new hotel; forget costly pilgrimages to Chicago and other fun centers in vain eft'orts to get a new union depot. Who wants to build a new hotel in n city that can’t handle a thunder storm? What railroad wants to spend money building new trackage into a new union station only to have them buried in mud like the tracks on west Broadway now are? If Council Bluffs wants other persons and cor porations to spend money improving their city, why shouldn’t the Bluffs citizens dig down a little in their own jeans and make a few necessary improve ments on their own account? Now is the time for the city council to act; now •yvhile fhe citizenry is aroused over the mud situa tion. And if the city council is not inclined to act, now is the time for the progressive citizens of Council Bluffs to rise up and demand action. There is a city election coming soon in Council Bluffs. If there is a man considering throwing his hat into the ring for the mayoralty, let him come out on a platform for “necessary improvements” and he should sweep the boards. > But by all means let Council Bluffs rise to the occasion as it did in the great war—100 per cent— and do away with the “mud menace.” AGAIN SCIENCE TRIUMPHS. Two Lehigh university professors, after years of study and research, announce the perfecting of a nonbreakable cigar. We have the nonrefillable bottle (comparatively obsolete since Amendment 18); the nonopenable ear window; the nonshuttable umbrella. But what are these, compared with the contri bution of the two professors to the comfort of the world and the comity of nations! The nonbreakable cigar! No longer will a pang of apprehension go ihrough the lover as, at the thrilling moment of bid ding her farewell on the front porch, he hears a sharp, crackling sound in his left breast pocket, and realizes that several frail cigars have perished. No longer will those jovial souls, who emphasize their speech with thumps on their friends’ bosoms, be a menace to the peace of society. Lovers may embrace with abandon and men may face the most rabid chest-slapper with a calm smile, knowing that the cigars in their pockets are non breakable, thanks to the persistence of the two scien tists. Thomas Marshall, quondam vice president of the United States, was acclaimed as a deep analyst of the feelings of the people when he declared that the greatest need of this country was a good 6-cent cigar. Men now see that there was something which the world needed even more, and, thanks again to science, it has been provided. Thus does the race advance, gropingly some times, but always forward. We trust that patents on the nonbreakable cigar will be taken out without delay in all countries (in cluding Scandinavia), in order that the inventors may have a just reward for their great gift to hu manity. It costs $1.20 to $2.80 to produce a ton of bituminous coal, and $1.23 to produce a bushel of wheat. The coal sells at the mines for about $5.60 a ton. The wheat sells at the farms for about 85 cents a bushel. '“‘Dirt Farmer’ President of Bankers,’’ says a caption in The Christian Science Monitor over a picture of Walter Head. His fellow-citizens wonder when he gets time to do his plowing and hay making. * The city tank wagons were squirting water on the downtown streets yesterday as usual in spite of downpours that had scoured them clean.

I “From State and -Nation” Editorials from other newspapers. Tlie Two Bryan*—\ Contrast. From I ho Portland Oregonian. Some light is thrown on the career of TV. J. Bryan by liie contrast which it presents to that of his brother Charles. One would suppose from the distinction won by TV. J. that he would he instrumental in advancing I lie fortunes of Charles TV., but not so; Charles W. was the steady old workhorse with whose aid W. J. realized on his facility with tongue and pen. In doing so, "Brother Charlie" acquired such knowledge of the po litical game and such standing among politicians that he has been elected to two offices while TV. J. has been elected to none since he was sent to congress away back before his fre> silver campaign. William vainly reached after the presidency, but Charles used his 20 years of practical experience to get elected mayor of Lincoln and then to win the gov ernorship of Nebraska, lie did not aim so high as Wlllhrtn, but he got there. When William was nominated for president in 1896, Charles was run ning a cigar store in Omaha, After tiie campaign William found a pile of 186,000 unanswered telegrams and letters. He determined to answer all of them and sent for "Charlie" to do the job with the aid of many stenographers. It took a year and a half, and ho answered all of them. Then William started Hie Commoner, hut Charlie managed it. the peerless leader's part being to write signed edi lorials. That is where Charlie learned tlie political game so well that *he be came ills famous brothers adviser and won office for himself. How much of the fame won by William was the result of the steady, unheralded work of Charles? But for that work in keeping him to the front might not William, after his sudden, meteoric rise to fame, have sunk into Hie comparative obscurity that usual ly envelops defeated candidates? Con ceding that William's political distinc tion made opportunity for Charles to shine with less luminosity, did not Charles in the main do more to make William than William did to make Charles, in view of what Charles tin doubtedly did to make himself? Though there may be more satisfac tion in having run for president and failed than in never having run at all, is there not more real satisfaction in having run for governor and won? No Crowds in the Big Stores. From the Wyoming State Tribune. During tho pressmen's strike in New York City, when none of the big dailies issued a regular edition, but all, combined, published a small paper, to all practical purposes a bulletin, the large retail stores have been empty. They looked more like wart houses or Jobbers' display headquar ters than mammoth merchandising establishments. Executive s of tho largo department stores attributed the appalling lull In trade to inability to advertise. They could do no more than distribute placards, like the Impressive adver tisements in the daily press, hut these notices to tho public did not seem, somehow, to reach the public. Cus tomers stay at home, waiting for the newspapers with the usual sales an nouncements. Whatever the people read in the advertising coin mu of the dally nt vvs papers is backed tip by that news paper's own ethical standards. The advertisement is as effective as the popularity and influence of the press. Though the advertisement published by a merchant may bo exceptionally attractive and offer special bargains it does not appeal to the public with tho same force as the same adver tisement In the newspaper. It is often said that the progres sive stores believe in advertising, and they thrive because they are liberal and trustworthy advertisers. Another fact is generally overlooked. It is that the public believe# In advertis ing, as the public has learned that it cm depend on display announce ments in the daily' press. * Would it be po.“sib!e>to obtain a more emphatic demonstration of the value of advertising, both to tiler chants and the public, than the dc sorted stores in New York City?

QUESTIONS FOR NATURE LOVERS. Other readers scattered widely through Nebraska and Iowa have been contributing liberally to this col umn, but in their stories of nature they seem to leave much untold. I have read’these all with interest, but realize that much lias not yet been told. When does a goldlish sleep? Is there really such a reptile as a hoopsnake? > Old any one ever have a parrot that was so intelligent that it really knew what it wts saying? Is it cruel to use worms for llshing? Has any one ever really idenlilied a bird that returned the following spring?

The remaining $30, "00,000 is to go to the son whose wife is the Russo-Greek princess, so that the Greek royal family is in a way to be supported. The young Mr. Leeds, however, is said to have stated that, as for him, he is an American and proposes to move Iks family over here and live. Postal Savings Banks, l-’rum he Minneapolis Tribune. Postal savings banks have now lie. n conducted by the American Pcst oflire department for 13 years. The high water mark of deposits was reached In January, 1921, with $163, 656,350. The total at the lieginning of August this year was $131,659,300. It will thus be seen that these gov eminent institutions are not formid able competitors of private banks as custodians of the peoples savings. More than one single bank In the country has greater deposits than all the. postal banks put together. There is no clamor for abolishment of the government system. It Is gen erally accepted as a fixture that has a proper place in the financial scheme of the land. There are about a half million depositors, ranging in age from 10 years up. The law provides that individual deposits may run as I high as $2,500. the limit having been raised from $1,000. As a matter of fact the law limits deposits to those of the Individual type, firms and cor porations not being welcomed as patrons. tine iif ttie very' good reasons for establishing postal savings banks was to encourage liabits of thrift. An other reason was to humor the timid ity of persons, mostly men and wo men of foreign birth, who kept their savings in hiding places rather than entrust them to banks under private control. Still another reason, corollary to this, was to bring accumulations of money from hiding places and make It an active part of the circulat ing medium. Corn Find* Home in North Dakota. From the Fargo tN. 1>.) Pally Tribune. J t.'orn is not king in North Dakota, but the strides that the crop Is mak ing in the state is an indication of the advance of mixed farming. As more productive and hardier varieties are lieing developed which arc better adapted to the state than the corn bill varieties, skeptics are being won over to the side of the American corn. Corn exhibits will he n feature of the displays at the Red River Valley show at Casselton Saturday. Shows at Mandan, Rnderlln and other com munities in the state have empha sized the progress which the crop Is making In the state. Twenty years ago corn was just being Intro duced Into North Dakota. By 192(1 the acreage has Increased to 569.0O0. A veer 1 it* r 6^000 acres more ware added. In 1922 the acreage was 6SA. coo, and this year estimates place the ilgure at 761,000, The million-acre mark will bo reached within a few yea rs. Fur years thi question of whether corn could be grown was the extent of discussions on the crop, but now that North Dakota farmers are grow ing corn, emphasis is laid on select ing ind saving seed from the varie ties host adapted to the state. Trials at the slato experiment station show that varieties grown in the state d fter widely In productiveness and in onrlini SB of maturity. That care ful selections and experiments are Improving North Dakota varieties each year is evident from tho result of tlie records of the trials. (irowers who- are using good seed from liarriv varieties are no longer skeptics about corn rulture In this state. The crop is finding a per manent plnco on more farms every year. Then, too, corn growing calls for live stork, live stock means diver -ifli-l farming, and diversified farm in ; will i ■ suit In more prosperity for North Dakota. Corn Isn’t king over North Dakota farming, hut the crop lM running a good race for i premiership.

P. Pensioner's Appreciation. Mount Kisco, N. Y.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: Eatt Saturday I was very much pleased at receiving copies of your Issue of September 16. In your editorial you say: "Breathes there a man with soul so dead that takes no notice of the life around him.’,' These words meant much to me, ns I aril some 1.000 miles away from Omaha, having left, there last August. I am staying here In a village about 10 miles north of New York City, get ting ready to sail to Scotland next month. So It Is not to be wondered at that when your papers came I read them with much pleasure. In your column, ‘‘People You Know, Their Comings and Goings," you made mention of Mr. and Mrs. I.eish man, who were visiting John E. Ken nedy, she being his sister. When I left Omaha last August ! called at the bank to bid Mr. Kennedy goodby. He then said that hi? si?ter was in this country and she came from Pais ley, and that she was expected to be in Omaha in a few days. Many of the older people had shawls which came from Paisley. Many of my old friends used to tease me at>out my coming from that place. I often told them to keep their eyes on Pais ley, but some one has said that when he was asked that if he come from Paisley he said: "Yes. but as sure as death I could not help it." Having been born in Paisley in the year 1845. I came from there to Oma ha in 1881 and started as a machinist with the Union Pacific railroad May 16. the same year; the older people well know what gresit changes have taken place since then. I was re tired at the age of 70 In 1015. I was then pensioned off. Since then I have been w^ll treated by the, company, giving me an annual pass over the system and other roads as well. So the account you gave of the "mammoth chow line" they gave at Elmwood park was just in keeping with their many acts of kindness which they have shown towards their employes, and they did not forget their retired employes but gave them a ride in automobiles. How I should have liked to have been there, as I fancy how the old-timers looked so happy, as there are many of us get ting very frail. On my leaving Omaha I could not ‘help paying a visit to the shops and meeting some of my old shop mates. The superintendent. J. G. Hats, caught sight of me and waved me to his private office and we had a very pleasant talk. I was saying that some of us old timers were thinking that we had been born 10 years too early, as it is within the last 10 years that such changes have taken place for the benefit of those employes, but the old people have to meet the same high cost of living. The Union Pa cific has always been in the lead for the workingman's good. JOHN FRENCH. John Obscure. To the Editor of The Omaha lire: Old John Obscure, who has existed out on our street somehow for 40-odd years with scarcely anyone knowing it, proves, on accidentally being found out, to be a prodigy in egotism and self abasement. Quoth he, in sub stance: "Yes, I seem to be possessed with a dual mental and physical personal ity. I got my education in the bound less fields of experience. I do not think 1 have any antecedent*, nor that I was born. Just happened. I acquired the Itabit of voting the democratic ticket, voting fur Itrvan. Yes, one day I am on the mountain top of mental and spiritual rxhuber ante and of superphysical power. The next, I am in the depths—among the creatures which have their beings on their stomachs. Yesterday should I have died there would have been great hallelujahs In heaven and Incense would have been burned for me. The world would have been bereft of great leadership. Today, should 1 die, my neighbors would find It out i week later when they would break d< wn my door, and I have lived such negative spiritual and moral life. I could probably pass into either heaven or hades w ithout Iving noticed. "Yesterday upon hearing of some great singer drawing applause, l>ou qin ts and foriun< . I could have made hint appear lik* a street singer with a I old. with my matchleaa voice. To day should I attempt to sing my neighbors would tiombard my hut with tin cans and real estate values would dump In my vicinity. Yesterday, on remembering how once I saw Gotoh wrestle. I could have thrown him over my head and sat on him. Today I can remember how In the pigs feet pickling factory where I work I have fallen down and rolled over more than any other two lubbers In the works. "Yesterday, through my command ing personality, I could have lured the most beautiful woman in the land Into wedlock with me. Today I cannot remember (he time when the plainest of women would not have turned her bark on me with a weary sigh. Yes terday on reading how Babe Ruth could make a home run only about one time in 10 at bat, had driven the people wild, as though he had done great constructive work for the na (fun as Napoleon did for the French people when he performed some great destructive work against other na tions, I knew I could have koncked out a home run every other time at bat anyhow. "Today I remember always out in the Franklin street grounds the fel lows made me a regular substitute on the team and the only game I was even chosen first hand to play I broke my pants trying to make a hit and had to hurry from the game before it was half played. On reading of some great orator swaying the hun dreds with si speaking, I knew yesterday, that I could make the millions frantic with my eloquence, and yet the only time I ever at tempted to speak In public was to fitter a prayer, and to save my life I could say nothing but ‘Amen, amen.' followed by the snickers of a lot of unregenerated youngsters. "But in one thing T have never reached quite to the top nor to the bottom, namely: In my firm belief, faith and hope in an all-wise, faith ful. omnipotent God. and In the ef ficacy of the blood of his son to redeem men. And I have had more happiness down through life near the depths than near the top, for near the bottom I have found at least the virtue of humility while at the top T found intoxication engendered by high altitudes, followed by disillusion ment.’' GEORGE B.
