Democracy and representative government is responding splendidly to a severe test in Canada, where conscription lor military dutv is beinsr de- Datea oeiore the dominion parliament. On a vote to order the bill advanced to a second read ing, the government had twenty more of a ma jority than it had counted on, while proposals to postpone, to submit to a referendum and to pro vide tor class divisions were all defeated.- Oppo sition to conscription in Canada rests on much the same basis as it did in this country, organized labor there does not oppose manhood conscrip tion so much as it demands conscription of wealth as an accompaniment Liberals have united with labor in this, and some steps to do away with war' profits altogether mav be ooked for. Canada has responded nobly to the call for men and money, and will go the limit in the future. r a . a . - My Lady or the Snows is looming bigger than ever in the world.

Witnesses playing hide and seek with the city commission add to the gayety of the so-called police inquiry. Again we submit eventually, why not now? ,. Illinois soldiers are getting plenty of active service these days, regardless of the movement of federal troops to Europe. It is not the sort, however, that is especially desirable. Omaha will welcome more aeronaut and birdmen, and assumes the army authorities they I a a a . a a . nave scarcely touched, let alone exhausted, local capacity for taking good care of soldiers. General Chang is not the first dictator who mistook the voice of his own ambition for a call from the people. He found out sooner than most ot them his mistake, but is too far in to retreat. Uncle Sam's -soldiers having reached the scene of the strikes in Arizona, the yawp of the I. W. W. is correspondingly lessened. That bird seldom sings when the cage is yawning for him.

There cer tainly must be a better way of letting people know what new laws they are liable to violate before the Jaws become operative. j Chicago women are prosecuting a "no veal, no lamb campaign, and are making the retail butch ers help them in the work. This means more meat in the future, regardless of what effect may have on present prices. Mexico's Threat of Belligerency Talk of Mexico's plan to" break off relations with Germany and to espouse the cause of the Allies is only mildly interesting. It has too much the appearance of a Greek approaching with a gift. Mexico sadly needs heln in manv wavs Like the thoughtless wastrel, who has dissipated nis substance in a wild debauch and sobers up to find himself destitute, Mexico turns to the near est and most available source of assistance. The present transparent move to establish favor will not excite many on this side of the Rio Grande, while General Gonzales suggestion that the whole German government may "vamos inferno" would gain more applause if similar sentiments had not so lately been indulged by him and his kind with respect to the United States. Mexico will eet much help from Americans in the great work of renabinating a devastated land, but he does not need to declare war on Germany to deserve it. ijooa Denavior and honest industry will become Carranza and his people far more than further :..f mouigence in .oeuicosity. Saving Bread and Health as Well. The regulation that is intended to nrevent the return of unsold bread bv the retailer to ihf baker is as much a move for better health as for the saving of food. Fresh bread is a delicacy, but it lacks some of the qualities of bread that has been "aged at least twenty-four hours. English and Swiss governments long ago forbade the sale ot bread less than twenty-four hours old. At uni. versify training tables only stale bread is served and when the doctor puts you on a diet the first thing he excludes is fresh bread. The hygienic reasons are simple. In the older bread the chemi cal reaction incident to bakinsr is comolete. ex. cess moisture has been expelled and the nutritive' properties of the food have been developed. Ex tra efforts at mastication are an aid to orefeet di. gestion; many wise doctors insist that fresh bread is a great contributor to appendicitis and other . . . ailments ot the alimentary tract. Also the elimi nation of one of the greatest sources of food waste is thus reached. Co-operation between ttie baker and the retailer should be jeconded by the. nousewiie ana between them another great vic tory for humanity may be won that of enahlino- Americans to rid themselves of some habits of extravagance.

To the Editor of The Bee: I notice in the Letter Box B. E. says his wife is glad she did not marry a man like A. B. Mickle. She is certainly not the only one. 'There are many of us. Surely, no other can be quite like him. How any woman or child can respect or love a man of his character is beyond human concep tion. I think one of the things that is wrong is the fact-that he was born a few centuries too late. He should have been born a cave man. It does not seem to be the fact that his eldest daughter has left his house that worries him, but that he is losing her money. Good for her; let us hope she has luck and a good chance, for she needs it after being handicapped with a father such as hers. I wonder if, when he was married, he explained to his wife that he would be boss, carry the purse, etc.? He evidently needed a housekeeper and thought that was the cheapest way to get one. Perhaps he is generous enough to al low her a nickel carfare when she goes down town, or, more likely, he doesn't allow her to go. Poor thing! It certainly is a pity that even if he Is quite tired in the evening he feels it his duty to direct his wife and children in the garden. I suppose he thinks wives and children don't tire. I notice he smokes as he labors. Quite an expensive habit, isn't it? He states he sold $18.45 worths of garden truck. How does he manage to get the credit when his wife and chil dren did the work? T don't wonder the neighbors will not buy. I would hate to feed my wife and children food that was unfit for others to eat, if I were a man. As to owning his he doesn't say our house and having money in the bank, I would rather be without it than do as he does. Mr. Mickle should go to the library and read the July "American." I don't dare suggest buying it. He would find an interesting article entitled, "Am I Wrong in Spending $9,000 a Tear on My Three Children?" ' The editor wishes personal specific answers to this question and I'll venture to say MicKie couia give mm some. I only hoDe thev won't think he is an mm. ph? of flie Nebraskans. ' Kemember, Mr. Mickle, even though you own your house, there is no home without love and respect. A HOUSEWIFE. noccnt SMILING LINES. Culd Wife Aw'm awa noo, Sandy.

Before the Service some two hundred Tlihlo school children marched into the church carrying flags and sang the national anthem The texts for the basis of the ser mon were John vi:5-14 and Haggai ii:6-9. Dr. Wheeler said that "the situ ation is the gravest since 1907. The price of food has increased 62 per cent, owing to the food thieves of America: We are called to meet this perplexed situation the decrease of food and the increased price of 62 per cent. i "How shall we meet this situation? By raising more food and making bet ter use of what we buy. Ordinarily to waste food is sinful. Under present conditions, in the face of Europe hun gry, it is atrocious. "Go back to God's plan of frugality. It is not the last bullet, but the last crust will win the war. If you feel that this conflict is one of great sacrifices, read Charles Sawleas' book, "How Belgium Saved Europe." Again his tory repeats itself.

He holds that, the life or Jesus end inc in vlnlonna rnd duced evil, etc. I wonder lust what present aav evil he had in mind f. which he would like to condone by his sophistry. A renowned wise man and poet once said, "Such is the curse of an evil aeea that, multiplying, it ever more must evil breed." Ha miirhf ho,- further said, "No, lie or evil deed can anything but evil breed." Every page of history gives testimony of the fun damental truth that evil propagates nothing but evil. Any apparent good which is built on evil is built on sand. A causo which profits by or is de pended on lies must perish eventually. And it need not necessarily be a lie or an evil deed. Even an evil thought, like hatred, must breed evil. Charles Fillmore said, "Be careful what kind of thoughts you sow.
