I "In our contention we were up
held in a very notable way by the
heads of some of the financial insti
tutions, who recount past history to
demonstrate the - almost perfect
safety mortgage security.
"We have this perfect faith in the
real estate of Omaha and its suburbs,
and in addition we feel that there is
a certain civic responsibility which
should prompt our Omaha financial
institutions to look more favorably
on Omaha and suburban mortgages,
"Impartial investigators of the
reaLestate situation will ifind that
there is no probability of a decline
in the present values of real estate
in the near future. Omaha is a
great city and its growth is constant
and steady. The values of today are
constant and should be recognized
by mortgage investors.
Steady Demand.
"There is a vry steady demand for
homes. New building projects now
under way or contemplated are far
helow even the necessities for meet-
! ing the normal requirements and are
in- nowise calculated to relieve the
great shortage of housing which was
occasioned by the cessation of build
ing during-the war. The demand
should continue active for the next
several years.
-Naturally the trend of rents when
houses are to be found for rent, is
higher and will continue to'advance
until they reach a point where they
will represent a profitable return on
improved real estate,, capitalized at
the cost of reproduction. .
"In my opinion this is inevitable,
and when it is pointed out that to
net 6 per ent on his investment
the owner of a dwelling must obtain
15.6 per cent gross, and (the owner
of apartments must obtain 20.2 per
cent gross, you will readily realize
that jthe trend of rentals is higher."

Through the Vista of Tears
(From the Baltimore American.)
If Jeremiah had written the entire
Bible, conceiving this to -have been
possibly, religion would have been
saturated with lamentations, and
thoso who sought to govern their
lives It would have been the most
woebegone of mortals. There Is
enough of pathoi in the Scriptures
adequately to correspond with the
pathos in human livingX There is
enough of grief, and of mourning,
and of regret and -f bemoaning.
But -against this dark background
are set forth promises' of God for
His children: So that the apostle
3'aul, having run through the en
tire gamut of human misfortune,
for his. time and environment, is
heard 'exclaiming with a note f
tr.umph: "I know how, in all things,
to be content; l know botn now to
be" full and how to suffer want."
Again he cries Jut: "Rejoice always,
and agatn I say rejoice." The back
ground that ' Jeremiah provides is
not an unusual one. It is the back
ground of those who feel the morbid
thrill of renunciation of all the fac
tors cf happiness in order that they
may enjoy being miserable. For
there are those to whom misery,
self-inflicted, is a tonic and not a
tragedy. They have something of
the Pauline spirit; they "weep with
those who weep. .
Today there are not a few who
take up as their constant cry, "Who
will show us any good?" a. chal
lenge of gloom to the spirit of joy
They are pleasurably excited bv
their sense of spiritual flagellation.
They are like the woman in the
fable who could command her tears
at will, and went abroad to commis
erate misfortune wherever she met
it. She wept over a poor little seed
ling, and her tears fostered its
growth. When she passed that way
again it was blossoming with the
happiest and reddest of roses. She
wept to see such flagrant and buoy
ant gladness, and. her tears upon
the roses caused them to wither.
The faMe need not be pursued fur-
tner: tne sisiers ana Drotners or la
mentation decry the fate of those
who suffer and bemoan the estate of
those who are glad.
.Suffering, however, may be a very
holy thing. One who had won spir
itual triumph over ; its pang3 ex
claims, "Before I suffered I went
astray." But this does not condone
in any wise. those who add even a
drop to the chalice of suffering of
their fellows. Sympathy is a very
holy . thing, and those who display
sense of deep concern for their
fellows in misfortune, disclose the
very acme of human goodness. Serv-
boratories will be provided, the an- J-ice is a very holy thing, and those
and made them ;ythite in the blood of
the infinite sacrifice of their mortal
years tobaleful agents of greod and
oppression and cruelty, there will be
standing by those who went among
them on earth as ministerinir angles,
instinct with the finest spirit of the
Almighty himself.
So that thore is no disparagement
to be cast upon those who weep for
others "weeping may endure for a
night, but Joy cometh in the morn
ing." One may weep without becom
ing a settled nvelancholic, one may
commiserate without giving himself
over to .ceaseless lamentations. Only
those need to feel the burden of
tears and the freightage of fears as
an- unrelieved burden of their lives,
Lwho have no high places of spiritual
confidence and spiritual optimism to
which they may repair and recite the
73d Psalm, with a high note of glad
ness, dwelling upon the 25th and
26th verses: "Whom have I' In
heaven but Thee? and there is none
upon earth that I desire beside thee.
My flesh and my heart faileth, but
God is the strength of my heart and
my portion forever." They Who
have not entered .into the ' invisible
will, surely go all their days mourn
ing, but they who have compassed
by faithTthe eternal years of fhe Al
mighty, will trust to Him the brok
en fragments of time. These rejoice
in the opportunity and quality of
their tinman service, even though It
be that of a heavy heart. They who
exclaim with Jeremiah, "Oh, that
my head were waters and mine eyes
a fountain-ef tears that I might weep
day and night for the slain of the
daughter of my people!" have this
consolation from the psalmist, "They
that sow in tfcars shall reap in joy.
He that goeth forth and weepeth,
bearing precious seed, shall - doubt
less come- again with rejoicing,
bringing his sheaves with him."
Life's pathos, seen through a veil of
tears, should reveal in the refraction
the rainbow that circles the throne
of God.
