Conscription for Canadians.
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.

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

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.

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.

Things Mickle Has Missed.
Omaha, July 3. 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.

Downeast public joy over the prospective
come-back of the S-cent loaf provokes greetings
in editorial columns. "The great bread-baking
concerns, and the bakers generally," says the
Brooklyn Eagle, "like the coal men. the poultry
men and the dairy men, see the handwriting on
the wall: "Submit or resign." Hence an agree
ment on a plan to restore the S-cent loaf and
to make it of "standard size."

Saloons and cabarets close at 10 p. m and the

doused the glims, probably forever.

In warring big business. Fifteen years ago, when
the Goulds controlled the Western Union Tele
graph company and poked the nose of the
Wabash into Pittsburgh, A. J. Cassatt of the
Pennsylvania declared war on the family inter
ests, cleared the Western Union poles off the
Pennsylvania right-of-waA and turned the busi
ness over to the Postal The railroad contract with
the Postal expired June 30, and the business was
turned back to the Western Union. Cassatt is !
dead and the Goulds are out of the telegraph bus
iness. The rest was easy. .

rial Presbyterian church, South Side,
spoKe last saDbath morning on the
above theme, in relation to the food
conservation problem. 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. The hungry are
orderly arranged on the swards of
Europe. Thev look to
lad with the five barley loaves. The
xooa administrator, Jesus, says to the
morally disposed people of America,
'Gather up the figments that remain,
that nothing be lost.' "

Praises for Bee and Barry.
Omaha, July 6. To the Editor of
The Bee: In behalf of that element of
the Irish race who have ever and always-kept
alive the memory, history,
tradition and achievements won by
Irishmen at home and abroad, I heart
ily thank you for the editorial in yes
terday's issue of your great paper
wherein you gave a sketch of the ca
reer of the "father of the American
navy, likewise advocated the nam
ing of a street or 'avenue in his mem
ory. It is, deplorable to witness the
neglect given to the history of Com
modore John Barry, especially the
negligence to his memory by the men
of his own race.

Give the Telephone
Kcmber Slowly
2nd Distinctly
Speak slowly and dis
tinctly, with the lips not
more than an Inch from the
mouthpiece, when you call a
telephone number.
Several numbers sound
much alike over the tele
, phone unless spoken clearly.
For example, 4 sounds much
like 0, and 2 like 3, and 5
like 9.
That is why the telephone
operator must have your
number slowly, one figure at
a time, or she Is likely to
misunderstand you.
To guard against errors
' the operator repeats the num
ber you call.
Say "Right" if the opera
tor repeats the number cor
rectly; if not, say W and
flvr It again.

nothing but evil. Any apparent good

A causo which profits by or is de

And it need not necessarily be a lie

like hatred, must breed evil. Charles
