A short, low-rate Waterway from the Corn Belt to the Atlantic Ocean. up when the Atlantic and Pacific telegraph wire was followed by the Overland railroad. For more than half a century Omaha has been recognized as the true gateway to the Pacific coast. A wonderful stream of world commerce pours through this portal. Rivals north and south have sought to divert this traffic, but the natural advantages that turned it this way are not to be overcome by the artificial means so far adopted. Now the . Postoffice department emphasizes the condition by making this an im portant station on the route. Actual experience supports this decision. The flight of the army aviators from coast to coast last year showed beyond doubt the desirability of the central route, and proved that any detour would be costly and not practicable. Branch routes of the air mail will be set up for places north and south of this city, but Omaha will be a main line terminal until ' its rivals can change geography and' so alter the physical Taw as to make a curve the shortest distance between two points. ! I THE BEGUILING OF THE CLERGY. A brief letter from a rural citizen, which has direct application to both church and political conditions in many parts of the country, is printed in the current National Republican, as follows: May I not suggest that if the literature of some of our churches taught more of Josus Christ and not so much of Woodrow Wilson, they (the churches) might not need to com plain of decreased membership, and the ef fect on the rising generation would be more wholesome if not so favorable to Article. X. This letter was written by W. B. Amos of Reedsville, O., a little village made up of farm ers. We happen to know both the writer and his community, composed of plain, unassuming citizens of the average rural sort. There, are ten thousand others like it in the United States where men in their shirt sleeves do straight thinking and speak common sense. One of the glories of America is that one does not have to go to the big cities or great universities for lessons in religion or patriotism. No commun ity is so remote or unimportant that one cannot find American brains in it, functioning in per fect accord with vital principles of religion and politics. Perhaps every church-goer and reader of denominational publications has seen one or more editorials in them or heard one or more sermons whose real text was not an utterance of Christ, but of Woodrow Wilson. Only here and there, apparently, was there a church editor or preacher strong enough to resist Mr. Wil son's smooth promises as a temporary substitute for the words and promises of Christ. There 'was, for a time after the president's return from abroad, an epidemic of sermons glorifying Wil 'son, inspired not by the word of God, but by Wilson's adroitly phrased testament of inter ! nationalism. Many ministers who did not j fathom its full meaning, who were not then acquainted with the multitude of abhorrent dis loyalties to principles and dishonest compro mises by which it was tainted to suit the ulterior purposes of European diplomacy, burst into eulogies of a thrng now abominable in the light of later knowledge. They forgot the warning of Peter: There shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies. . . . , And many shall follow their perni cious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spokei of. . . . And with covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you. Fortunately the majority of these erring church papers and preachers now discern that the way of Wilson is not "the way of truth;" that "damnable heresies" against national prin ciples are in his false testament of selfish Euro pean interests, put there "privily" after a solemn promise that it should be an open covenant openly arrived at; that covetousness of vain glory and world power animated the idol of clay they worshipped at Paris; and that on his eturn he "made merchandise"-of them to pro mote an unholy political ambition. They know now that Article X of the covenant is neither a beatitude nor an echo of the Golden Rule, but a plot to use the military power and re sources of the United States in every political dispute in the world, for the sole advantage of Europe. ! Both church papers and preachers now gen erally realize that confusing the craftily con structed speeches of Mr. Wilson with Holy 'Writ was an unprofitable venture. The sub ;stitute for the Savior spread his net in vain in the sight of village birds like W. B. Amos of Reedsville. But it caught thousands in the pal pits and university faculties. Origin of a Home Wrecking Distemper. In all the city, town and country homes of Nebraska, as the vernal season gathers headway, all too busy housewives are succumbing to the housecleaning germ, whose attacks come sud denly with each succeeding springlike day. We find it hard to write of this semi-annual horror without betraying great bitterness of spirit, be cause it is a form of industry we despise. We mention it only because it conies in the line of public duty to do so, in order to prepare men's minds for the inevitable week of annoyance, dis arranged books, misplaced furniture, dust, flurry and cold meals. When and where did housecleaning originate? Not in ancient Greece or Rome, nor in the land of the unspeakable Turk, nor in Russia.-. Not in Cleopatra's mystic realm, nor anywhere in all Asia and Africa. China's curious civilization of 3,000 years has been free from it, as have Greenland's icy mountains and India's coral strands. Even the Moors who settled in Spain and gave personal and civic cleanliness its first victories in Europe cannot be charged with it The American Indian also is guiltless, as are the denizens of the innumerable isles of the seven seas. Who, then, inflicted housecleaning, with all its attendant ills, on America? We shall no longer conceal the truth. The New Englanders did it, the Yankees, the busybodies of the New World. But why? The answer is easy. It was invented as a contrast to that other New Eng land institution, Thanksgiving day. And it is some contrast, verily. We used to think it a custom. Now we know better. It is a disease, "peculiar to women," as dear old Lydia Pink- ham would say. But not even her genius for medical discoveries ever found a specific for it. We fear it never will be shaken off in this world. Its tentacles have too firm a grip every where. It is the cancer of housekeeping, the black plague of domestic life, the scrub brush and broom-handle itch of modern times. It began when the Blue law that prohibited men from kissing their sweethearts and wives on Sundays went into effect In their displeasure the New England women began raising a dust and called it housecleaning. They have, been raising this dust ever since, and men flee when no man pursueth. Can you blame them? Boys and Girls and Music. For the second time in Omaha the experi ment of giving a symphony concert for the bene fit of youngsters from the public schools has 'proved to be a move in the right direction. One 'of the noteworthy features of the affair is the attention given by the young auditors to the jorchestra and the intelligent appreciation shown ibv them of the music afforded. This does not imply that they are possessed of the keen judg ment and perception that comes with experience and familiarity with the scientific aspect of the art or the more easily understood phases of tone values as developed in melodic combina tions. These children merely exhibit the natural tendency to react to the impulse of harmony, the rhythmic flow of sound, affecting them as directly as if they were deeply versed in all the technic. It is possible to elaborate this into a considerable argument in favor of the plan, be cause of its psychological aspects. The con elusion, however, must be that music is as good for the young folks as for the elders, and that irood music is as attractive and may become as oooular as "jazz." Boys and girls whose minds are appealed to through the sense ot hearing may be directed to higher ideals if their musical taste is cultivated as carefully as their moral perceptions are whetted on precepts. Air Mail Service for Omaha. The action of the house at Washington on 'Friday makes certain the flight of the air mai from Omaha to Chicago. For some time this icitv is to be the western terminus of this im portant service. In season the route is to be vt.nrlrrl to San Francisco, and another link established between the Gate City and vthe Golden Gate, cementing the bond that was set Spread of the Overall Movement. One of the manifestations of revolt at the high cost of living is the adoption of overalls in Jieu of the usual garb by men. Wherever the idea originated, it is spreading rapidly, and bids fair to become epidemic. Prices on clothing have been moved skyward with such rapidity as defies sight, and ready-made garments now look down on mortal man from altitudes never before attained. The well dressed man today carries on his blck more of money than he ever dreamed of doing, while the fop or dandy may express his fancy only at such a drain on his pocketbook as must make him think if anything will. When the country was at war there was some reeason for this. .The War department set a mark of more than 100 pounds of wool per annum for the consumption of men who were accustomed to use eight or ten at the outside This naturally set prices sky high. The war was ended a year and a half ago, but the selling price of men's clothing has goneon soaring. To be sure, it had plenty of company, but none that seemed so ambitious to establish an altitude record. The buck has been passed all the. way up and down the line, from wool grower to re tailer, but no place has the responsibility been fixed. It is only clear that the price of a pound of wool has been wondrously expanded in its journey from the back of the sheep on which it grew to that of the man who finally wears it. The overall crusade may compel a contraction pf this undue stretching, but if it tioes nothing else ' it will serve as an impressive protest against a condition that is almost insupportable. Chinese Women After Our Styles. .Notable changes are observed among the better class of women in China. They have awakened to an interest in American fashions and deportment. To such an extent is this true that from head to foot they are wearing gar ments cut on American lines shoes, stockings, tailor-made suits and hats and are content with nothing else. They are dancing American dances, too, and acquiring the independent spirit of this country. It is well. The first civilizing influence is welt' cooked food. After that comes clothing. Then all the conveniences of modern life follow, along with educational advancement. China is com ing along. When the women of any of the old civilizations take to a new one, the men must follow. With the women of China climbing out of the pit of customs three thousand years old, nothing is impossible in the enlightenment of all peoples. Qaims set up in behalf of an outside can didate for president who is seeking votes in Nebraska make us wonder if the people of this state have so soon forgotten the work of "Charley" Magoon in Cuba.

COMPARE JOHN STUART MILL. -Sir: Tou quote a colleague, who says editorially, "Americans like plenty of laws," a lamentable fact Perhaps, while on this thought, you may find the following extract from a letter to the San Francisco Argonaut of March 31, signed "L. T.," to your liking: "King Pausole on his advent to the throne destroyed all existing books of law and enacted a 'code' of stupendous simplicity. He absolutely ignored the existence of God. leaving to his peo ple absolute liberty of religious conscience. Re garding the conduct of men towards one an other he legislated as follows: , "Article I. Do no harm to your neighbor. " 'Article IT. This being thoroughly under stood, do as you please.' " That's all. Compared with our codes and the compila tion of judicial decisions, both the laws of Moses and of King Pausole are wonders o con cision. Nevertheless they cover every possible case which may occur amongst men. All that Is needed to protect life, liberty, and property would be to apply these laws with absolute in tegrity and within reason. E. S.

Before the dancing began Mr. Ben Bux ton made an announcement that the Rosa lind club was not hereafter going to allow any dances on its floor to shimmie or to use the face against face mode of dancing. This is decidedly a move in the right direc tion, for this club has always stood for the best 'and is the measuring tape by which . this best is attained. Children reared under the 'espionage of the club will understand what the highest is in manners and morals and the shimmie and face to face dancing were decidedly a retrograde from the best.

You. can't overdo it. B. L. T. How to Keep Well By Dr. W. A. EVANS GROWTH THROUGH FEEDING The Instinct of every growing ani mal, man included, drives him to drinft milk and eat green stuff. The almost universal use of milk by the very young suggested to investigators that there must be something in milk which promoted growth. Without discovering just what the substance is, they established the fact of its existence and named it the fat solu ble vitamine. But they noted that animals con tinued to grow after being weaned and turned out to grase. Therefore they sought for proof of the presence of the fat soluble vitamine in grasses and vegetables. They have found them there also. The conclusion is that vegetables are thoroughly wholesome for grow ing children. If children 'can get milk and butter they should have them, but if they are deprived of them they can still grow provided they get plenty of good vegetables, and especially green vegetables. Recently Steenback an,d Gross of the University of Wisconsin re ported on a series of experiments made by feeding various vegetables to young white rats over four-month periods. If they gave the rats enough alfalfa along with other, food substances necessary to nourish them they grew normally and bore healthy young when of the proper age. Lettuce,, spinach, chard, and clover were about as effective in promoting growth. Perhaps lettuce was inferior to spinach and cabbage was distinctly inferior to lettuce. The fat soluble vitamine is con tained in a yellow pigment which is found in green leaves. It is found in fair quantities in some roots which are used for foods and in much less quantity in grains. Does not this confirm the- experience of the stock raiser, who permits his very young stock to suckle as long as they will and provides pasturage for them from the suckling period until ma jority. After they become grown he gives them fat and strength by feed ing grain. Steenback and Grossi having proved .that greens, salads In fact, most vegetables are good for grow ing children, are carrying on the experiments to determine which vegetables rank well and which less well. The reader will remember that while conclusions drawn from the feeding of rats are valuable as guides for feeding humansj they cannot be applied exactly and en tirely. For instance, it has been found that the foods which best suit young rats are not the best for young guinea pigs or for young rabbits. But most vegetables are cooked before being eaten. Steenback and Boutwell investigated the effects of cooking on the stimulating fat solu ble vitamines. They conclude that cooking does not materially lessen this principle in cornmeal, chard, carrots, sweet potatoes, and squash. The proportion may be lessened somewhat, but this can be offset by giving the child a larger helping. Hess and Unger even see an ad vantage to this growth substance in TWO) i DrVEEJ J f BaOM SANATomir This institution is the only one in the. central west with separate buildings situated in their own grounds, yet entirely distinct, and rendering it possible to classify cases. The one building being fit ted for and devoted to the treat ment of noncontagious and nonmen tal diseases, no others being admit ted; the other Rest Cottage being designed for and devoted to the exclusive treatment of select mental cases requiring for a time watchful care and special nujrsing. PRESCRIPTION PERFECTION When your doctor writes a prescrip tion he orders certain ingredients which, in his judgment, will yield cure or relief, as the case may be. If the druggist who compounds this prescription substitutes one druir for another, or uses inferior or stale ma terials, then the patient who takes the medicine fails to get the expected bene fit and the doctor's work is entirely undone. It is for this reason that hundreds of Omaha doctors prefer that the pre scriptions they write be compounded at Sherman A McConnell Stores. These doctors appreciate that we consider our prescription departments the most important part of our busi ness. They know that our dispensers are the highest type of registered pharmacists, they know that the phar maceuticals we use are unquestionably the purest, freshest and highest qualify the market affords. Finally, they know that we never substitute, for the rea son that on our shelves we carry every drug that could possibly be prescribed. Every Sherman 4 McConnell Store it a Prescription Store.

I have tried to quit many times, but after stop ping for a month I could not stand it and began again." - People who bite their nails are a little off in the upper story.

Or will there be dan ger aa long as the 'whoop' lasts?" -REPLY. Some officials say six weeks, oth ers eay four. In most cases the dan ger does not last four weeks from the onset of the symptoms. Whoop ing is not a sign ot infectivity. Many cases cease to be contagious long before they cease to whoop. ' Get Well Fitted Glasses. B. S. writes: "Is there any cure at all for nearsightedness?

To the Editor of The Bee: I wish to let you know that I appreciate the great improvement in The Bee and the business way in which it is doing things and the big way you have of treating the public and things In gen eral. I am very glad to see yoM standing for certain great improve ments for Nebraska and Omaha big things, but easily accomplished if we go at it in an earnest, deter mined way and are enthusiastic. We have the greatest "city of oppor tunity" in the world, I think, and by all pulling together can make our city of Omaha one of the very first cities on earth in every way. But it will require a big spirit and co operation. All of us must pull to gether and in one direction ana we can move big things. But if we pull against each other we will get no where. I would like for you to add one other big thing to your list There is niantv nf wnrar nnwer in Nebraska to heat, light and furnish electric power to every citizen in tne state. Then we need not depend on coal minora hut ran touch the button at anytime, day or .night, and will be more independent. Now you know "There is a tide in the affairs of men (city's) which taken at the flood leads on to fortune." That time is here for Omaha. It is a proud day for Omaha, pushing ahead as she is in spite of H. C. L. and strikes and overriding all ob stacles forging to the front, and our state is all over tho Bame way. Our interests are all one. Let no little, Jealousies or "peanut policies" dis turb us or throw any "monkey wrenches into "the machinery." There's room and plenty for all. of course we are xor our own nrm ami all the time. But we will help and not hinder others. I believe this to be the policy of The Bee. It sur is a good policy and will win out. I feel that The Omaha Bee, as it is now constituted, willl be one of the greatest factors In making , Omaha and Nebraska the center of great and successful things. It is the nat ural center of railroads, of farming, of live stock raising, of manufacture ingf and of the United States, which is at present the center of the world, and we can furnish "timber" for both parties for president.

Sugar is quoted at $10.55 per 100 lbs. to Omaha Jobbers, unloaded by cheap labor, and the price is in stantly Jumped to $17.75 and $18.uo per hundred.
