You should know that Within 50 miles of Omaha there are 100,000 families owning 64, 000 automobiles. What about enlarging the "muny" bathing beach? Turkey is doing quite a bit of squirming just now, but it will be mild enough when it gets the final news from Paris. . Admiral Peary's famous ice-ship, the Roose velt, is to be sold at auction. Here is a chance for "Old Doc" Cook to settle up. Two and three-quarters beer is not to escape unscathed. The dry advocates want the popu lar beverage completely dehorned. " Governor Lowden of Illinois can distinguish between a boxing exhibition and a prize fight, if Governor Cox of Ohio can not. Another record has gone by the board somebody having discovered a fool stunt in which "W. J. B." declined to take part. Designating Fort Omaha as the chief bal loon school of the army is but recognizing what the practical men of the air service long ago knew. . . "Wooda da VVils" is now "da bada da man," according to the Tribuna of Rome. But sup pose he had taken the side of Italy on Fiume, then what? . President Poincare has dined on American beef, for which $2.50 a pound was paid in Chi cago. This is just a little too high for the plain peepui, however. Great preparations are being made to re ceive the president when he gets to New York. Just wait until he reaches Washington, though, if vou are interested in the real reception. Pershing has declared the military censorship off, and letters and cablegrams can come through as written, yet so little remains to be said that the uncensored communication will hold little interest to any now. . The report on The Bee's free shoe fund, promoted last winter, shows that it was a most timely and welcome service. Now the free milk and ice fund is doing a similar work. Come on in; it is 100 per cent service. Republicans saved the country a billion and a quarter of dollars by rewriting the appropria tion bills of which Claude E. Kitchin boasted, and even this economy might have been ex ceeded had time enough been given for full con sideration. The short period is due to the fact that the president delayed so long in what he knew was inevitable, and did not call the extra , session until it could no longer be postponed. ' " Ohio church members who cleaned up the sanctuary when help could not be hired are pluming thmselves on having achieved a deed worthy of note. They should look around a '. little- and get better acquainted with what is going on in the world, and maybe they will not then boast so loudly of having helped them selves a little. It is being done generally these days. Return of the Immigrants ' The Department' of Labor of the United States continues to emphasize the imminence of the departure of 1,300,000 aliens to Europe, carrying with them savings to the amount of $3,000 each. The peril of this is greatly exag gerated. Although it is professed that the sta tistics has been carefully gathered, it can be merely a little better than guessing. Nor is it likely that all who return to Europe this sum mer will remain there. There are many rea sons why such as have parents or other near relatives in their native lands should be eager : to visit them, extend them aid, get a first-hand story of the war and view the devastation i :; wrought by the war, but there is little reason for believing that there will be such an im mense number or that a large percentage of , them will Stay in Europe. Europe is not a bed of roses nor will it be for many years to come. All travelers tell of armies of unemployed, paid regularly by the ' governments during the period of unemploy- - ment. Practically all the countries are on an inflated paper-money basis, greatly increasing the prices of things, in addition to the effect of short supplies. The debts of all the nations will ; be staggering, in proportion to their wealth. Such aliens as have in the past gone to Europe ' .to visit have been able to cover the cost of their passage both ways in the saving on living ex penses. But they will find matters entirely dif- " ferent this summer. Even those who contem- plate leaving America for good may soon change their minds after they discover condi tions that now prevail. It is probable that sen- ' timent is driving many persons of European .f birth home. Thousands came to the United .States to escape intolerable political conditions. - But they found still greater opportunities in 1 the United States. These opportunities will not be forgotten when aliens return to their native lands and face conditions. There will j 'not be as much European rehabilitation as has been predicted, for it will not be necessary to rebuild for the innumerable dead. Further . more, many thousands fled from zones occupied i- by the Germans and built elsewhere. The real "" peril is from a flow toward America. St. Louis Clobc-DcmocraL 1 :-v.-..' .-, .- " l , . : - . - t BUSINESS CONDITIONS. The Federal Reserve board comes forward with another optimistic report on business con ditions in the United States. Coupled with it Is a carefully worded warning against undue specu lation. Prospects for a bountiful harvest and improvement in the labor situation form the foundation for the encouragement the board gives the public as to the present and the im mediate future. New York bankers report a firmer situation in the money market, which tends to support the conclusion that, in spite of the continued activity on Wall street, the speculative element is not so prevalent as the Reserve board's warning might suggest. Recent inquiry, carried on by an eastern agency, developed the fact that in none of the staple lines is the volume of sales equal to what those reporting considered normal for the sea son. This is a natural result of the transition from war to peace. Buyers have waited for the stabilization process to produce its expected ef fect, and sales have been for immediate require ments only. Little or no future buying is re ported anywhere. This condition can not con tinue long, for consumption is steady, and cer tainly will increase if threatened advances in prices are not forced to a point that exceeds ability to pay. With bank assets of nearly twenty-one bil lions, with greater food supplies than in 1918 and the new crop coming on, with the labor market such as to assimilate all the returning soldiers, and industry generally getting back to its steady swing, business conditions seldom have been more encouraging in the United States in midsummer. Faith and courage, joined with enterprise, should secure for Amer icans the great opportunity now offered by the world's situation. Flight of the "R-34." When the R-34 ties up at Minneola, Long Island, and this ought to be within a very few hours now, another phase of voyaging by air across the Atlantic will have been entered upon. The American seaplane proved the feasibility of passage by that means, and the British air plane showed the nonstop flight to be possible. Now comes the dirigible lighter-than-air ma chine to demonstrate that what has long been considered theoretically possible is practicable. All that remains now is to arrange the sched ule, build the ships, and the gadders between the continents will be ready to provide the traffic for the modern method of transportation. These spectacular post-war feats hold a peculiar interest for another reason. They mark the downfall of a German dream of air domina tion. Not many years ago, when the Zep pellin was making its flights between German cities, carrying passengers and attracting much notice, a proposed flight to America was liber ally exploited. It contemplated crossing by a southern route, to avoid the anti-cyclone. Then the Germans were reported to have charted the air with great care, and were said to be pos sessed of such knowledge of currents, drift and the like as to have a tremendous advantage over any rival. The Zeppellin failed as a war machine, but its adaptability as a means of transportation has never been questioned. Eng land, however, has stepped in and won the laurels to which the German promoters aspired. Fancy must find new realms in which to soar, for man's daring has eliminated the air above and the waters below the earth as fields for imaginative speculation. It will require a real genius to provide a new thrill. Buying the "Fontenelle Forest." Several years ago The Bee suggested that thestate acquire the wooded tract just south of town, known then as "Child's Point," but now more generally referred to as "Fontenelle For est." Many practical as well as sentimental reasons supported this then, and all are as strong today. It is the largest tract of original tree growth standing in the state, containing fine specimens of indigenous timber, and for this alone it ought to be preserved. No other place in the state provides so efficient a bird sanctuary as this, and the public has long been educated to the advantages bird-life brings to an agricultural community. The movement of the Fontenelle Forest as sociation to raise the money to purchase this tract of ground and dedicate it perpetually to the uses of the birds, and the public under cer tain restrictions, is along a line that is not alto gether novel, yet is quite uncommon in Omaha. In commending the spirit that prompts these people, and expressing a hope that their ven ture will succeed, The Bee suggests that they return to the original name of the tract. Cap tain Child 'was a pioneer, and his memory is worthy of commemoration at least to the ex tent that is involved in retaining it in connec tion with his former property. On the other hand, Fontenelle, however great his claim on posterity, has been signally and frequently hon ored in other ways. We have a Fontenelle park, a boulevard similarly designated, and many private ventures keep the great chief's name before the public. "Child's Point" was a land mark for many years, and may well be re tained as such. Relief in Sight on Bread Prices. Nebraska millers are said to be promising a reduction in the price of flour, following the present wheat harvest. This, of course, has been anticipated. It will not be accompanied by a corresponding drop in the price of wheat to the farmer, who is guaranteed on the crop of the current year by the government, but it means that consumers are to get flour on the basis of the open market for wheat. In Feb ruary a Scotch authority placed the Liverpool price of wheat for August at $1.10 per bushel. Since that time some argument has been made that world conditions would save our govern ment whole against its fixed price to the farmer, but developments scarcely warrant that belief at this time. It is within the range of probabili ties that the entire appropriation of more than a billion dollars will be used. This is the first step down the ladder of war prices, and when it is taken, others must follow. The promise of the Nebraska millers is 'an assurance that relief for the public is not to be delayed a great while longer. The intoxicating property of a beverage is a question of fact and not f law, says the De partment of Justice. Just so; prohibition once was regarded as a policy and not a principle, but it was written into the fundamental law of many states and finally into the constitution of the United States. Through German Eyes From the London Times. There are still people in Germany who be-' lieve that a military dictatorship under 'Luden dorff or Hindenburg is practical. Colonel Bau er, late of the general staff, has just published a pamphlet on "The Delusion of a Peace of Un derstanding." His object, the preface states, is "to lead all Germans without distinction of party, along a path by which the ruin designed for the nation may be avoided." The method is to praise Ludendorff and Hindenburg, and to blame Prince Max of Baden and the socialists for the collapse of Germany. Prince Max of Baden arid the majority so cialists have always maintained that the hand of the government was forced in the end of last September, because Ludendorff and Hin denburg declared that the German front would collapse unless an armistice were obtained within 24 hours. Their case, in short, is that it was not until the army had declared itself beaten that the government surrendered. Colonel Bauer endeavors to refute this, and to rehabilitate the generals. He quotes the hitherto unpublished text of a memorandum by Ludendorff read at a meeting of the party lead ers of the Reichstag on October 2, 1918. Ac cording to this document, Ludendorff urged that "neither the army nor the civilians must do anything that would show weakness On the contrary, both must stand firmer than ever. Whilst overtures for peace are being made, there must be a united front, so that the enemy may realize that, unless they offer an acceptable peace, there is a resolute determin ation to continue the war." According to Bauer, neither Hindenburg nor Ludendorff regarded the army as beaten. But they foresaw that civilian weakness and the civilian "delusion about a good peace" would before long corrupt the army, and they were therefore anxious to get an armistice whilst the army was still unbeaten and powerful. The moral of the pamphlet is Trust the army and its leaders, and not the present gov ernment of Germany. The Frankfurter Zeitung has a cautious but on the whole sympathetic article on the com munistic rule in Hungary. The repeated ru mors as to the fall of Bela Kun "come from sensational newspapers in Vienna," and are not to be trusted. For the present the communis tic government seems to be the only one with a chance of continued existence. The dictator ship secures that counter-revolutionaries are promptly dealt with, but the recent liberation of hostages shows that Bela Kuhn feels fairly secure. The army is well organized, and the successes against Roumania and Czecho-Slo-vakia have stimulated Hungarian patriotism so that many who dislike the government tolerate it because of its success. It is more doubtful as to whether or not this experiment in communism is likely to be suc cessful. It is much better than bolshevism, as it includes in the "working classes" intellectual workers and many of the bourgeoisie. It press es most hardly on property owners, and the only serious trouble it has had to face is with the peasant proprietors who are passionate in dividualists. Communism has taken over gov ernment under the worst possible conditions, and any system might well fail. At present it is interesting as the "opposite pole of the cap italism ruling at Versailles"; both are too lop sided to be secure. The Cologne Gazette declares that the inde pendent socialists are bitterly disappointed be cause the new suffrage has not given a prole tariat majority. They are proposing, therefore, to change the basis of the suffrage so as to se cure the absolute rule of the proletariat. It quotes a writer in the Freiheit as saying that "to bring about the necessary proletariat dic tatorship, based on the system of workers' councils, there must be a form of suffrage se curing the unlimited power of the working classes to establish socialization." The vote now includes amongst "productive workers" technical experts, architects, teachers, ' artists and similar persons who are contaminated by capitalism. It must, therefore, be reinforced. In the first place, all those who are out of work must be included. Next, all adherents of the socialists must be included, whether these be producers or not, as "they belong subjective ly, although not objectively, to the working classes." On the other hand, those hostile to socialism must be excluded from the suffrage, as-, for example, those who belong to antiso cialist bodies, or who have spoken or written against socialists or socialism. If the proposal be genuine, it shows that the extremists are taking over the old Prussian de vice of doctoring the electorate. French Art of Courtesy No one can understand this French concep tion of art, as no one could understand the similar Greek conception, without distinguish ing clearly between art and artifice. The first comment of the Anglo-Saxon on all art is like ly to be that it is artificial! his comment upon the French life, itself an art, is that it partakes too much of the quality of artifice. The diffi culty is that such a comment assumes civiliza tion as a natural thing, said Professor Erskine in a recent lecture to his soldier students in France. The Frenchman knows better. When our mothers sent us to childhood parties and CEUtioned us to behave naturally they did not mean what they said; they meant that we should wear our acquired arts of courtesy as though they were natural. In that sense all civilization is not natural, and French life, being the most highly civilized, has most the character of art. But the French themselves are even more severe than we are in condemning artifice, which to them is not art but its most preverse enemy. Art for them must be frank and sincere, a quite open control of means to reach an intelligible ideal. There is nothing secret about it; its glory is the large part that reason and calculation frankly play in it as any choice between good and evil should be calculating and reasonable. Artifice, on the other hand, is the putting on of disguise, the assuming of methods which do not harmonize with the genuine purpose; it is a too great em phasis upon means and a too slight valuation of the noble end. Art is, as it were, the con trast or other pole to nature; it is the condition which is reached when man has given an inter pretation and a direction to the chaos of crude experience. In between these extremes in ar tifice, partaking of the. quality of both half di rected, half meaningless. New York Post. 7T The Day We Celebrate. Rev. Ewald T. Otto, pastor of the St. Paul's Ev.

Soldier's Birth Certificate. Mrs. L. E. C. Your request is not very clear, but if we under stand it, you want to know how to proceed to establish the birth of a soldier who was killed in France. If, as you say, the boy was born at Ashland, Neb., in 1895, you should write to the county clerk of Saun ders county, Nebraska, addressing him at Wahoo. Give him the par ticulars as well as you can, and he will give you Information as to the records of the county concerning the birth of the soldier. Give the name of the midwife, if you can not tell the physician's name, and the date as nearly as you can fix it. Many Questions Answered. Babe F. We have no record of the 22d transportation company hav ing sailed from Brest. It is cer tain, however, that all the units of the American Expeditionary Force will soon be out of France. S. A. S. Can not tell from your letter to what unit you have refer ence. However, as all the forces in France are being brought home as soon as possible, it is pretty certain that the soldier you are interested in will soon be back in the home land. B. J. Salvage unit No. 315 has been stationed at Toul, where it is employed at cleaning up and salvag ing all material. The post will soon be given up by the American forces. The unit will probably shortly be re leased for return to America. Mrs. G. McK. We have no other information regarding the soldier you mention than is contained in the published list to which you refer. For information concerning an individual soldier recourse must be had to the office of the adjutant general of the army at Washington, D. C, you will be furnished with his present address and reasons, if any, for his not being reported as having landed.

JUST as Frowning Phil and Wantit Myway seemed about to slide into the jaws of the hungry moun tain lions waiting on the ledge at the bottom of the cliff, they stopped abruptly. Their coats had caught on Jutting rocks, and they nun suspended over the open mouths of the snarling beasts. Joyousness, standing at the door of her house in the valley far below, handed Peggy and Billy each a pair of field glasses. With these they could see plainly every movement of Phil and the dwarf. The moun tain lions, seeing their expected din ner hanging Just out of their reach, clawed vainly at the cliff and leaped as high as they could. One of the leaps brought a lion within snapping reach of Phil, but he, thrashing out with his foot, kicked the lion right in the nose' and sent it sprawling backward, tearing mad. Peggy and Billy couldn't help laughing at this, but their laughter was cut short when the glasses dis closed wriggling, swaying creatures in a rocky crevice close to P'hll and the dwarf. "Rattlesnakes!" whispered Billy. Phil saw the snakes at that very moment. Scared into a panic, he gave such a jerk that his coat tore free from the rock and down he flopped right on top of the moun tain lions, bringing Wantit Myway tumbling with him.
