Proponents and defenders of the League of Nations have seized with avidity on the alleged adjustment of disputes between Sweden and Finland with reference to. the Aland islands and between Poland and Lithuania over the bound-' ary between those countries. "The intervention of the league in successful efforts to avert war between Sweden and Finland and between Poland and Lithuania furnishes striking object lessons of the league's value to th cause of peace," says thef World-Herald. Laying aside the fact that the Poles and Lith uanians have not agreed and have declared ne gotiations broken off, the st -called adjustment between Sweden and Finland may be inquired into. On the surface it looks like an approach to settlement of a vexed question. Going into the question' just a little deeper, we find that the league is doing just what was anticipated for its possible activities. ,The council has declared to be an international question what one of the dis putants contends is a purely domestic question, and proceeds with all celerity to coerce the little country of Finland to submit willy nilly to the decision of the super-government. The nationality of the Aland islands was one of the bones of contention between Sweden and Russia; when the czar's empire collapsed and Finland 9t up as an independent government, the Sweden came forward with a claim for the territory. ;The geographical position of these islands gives them value to both claimants, but strongly' supports the 4 laim of Finland. How ever, that is not so much of interest to Ameri- cane ae !c til a nrnrnr!nr0 tal-on aw If the council of the League of Nations can override Finland on its contention that the dis position of its natural territory is a domestic and not an international question, it has power to do the same with other disputes. Suppose Japan were to refer the question of United States ex clusion of Asiatics to the league as an interna- am n 1 rliVnurA fits A It- Kli- 1111 A 1C milrYl f r!rt r frt UUliai UiSjUlV Qiij it nan iv o vi kwivi v support such a claim as Sweden has in the Aland islands); what would be the effect? The United States would be invited to become temporarily a member of the league, and, without a vote on the question, bcause of being a disputant, would be required to abidfe by the decision or incur all the peialties provided for dealing with contu macious members. Are Americans ready to submit to the deci sion of outsiders any question affecting the con trol of immigration? Will they allow Europeans to decide who may become residents and citi zens in our' country These, points are not far fetched, but are the natural, Inevitable effects of tVe League of Nations if its operations with re gard to the dispute between Finland and Sweden stand. It is President Wilson's plan, and Cox has agreed to redeem every pledge and promise Mr. Wilson made. ing a magnificent thing. That over $800,000,000 of the total still is held, waiting maturity in 1923 is also a fine thing to contemplate, for it is proof that the lesson of thrift thus taught has had some permanent effects. Sanctuary and the Mob. An illuminating incident is reported from Chicago. There a mob of incensed men pursued a trio of negroes, who took refuge in a little church near the stockyards. Police reserves were calld, and a race riot seemed imminent. The young priest of the parish stood at the door of his church, and with the word, "Sanctuary!" softly spoken, quelled the clamor, and held the excited men at bay until the police had safely removed the negroes and taken them to jail. The priest spoke quietly, admonishing the rioters to start no more trouble in a world which al ready has too much, and -sent them to their homes. If he never does anything more in the service of God or for humanity, this is a work that justifies his faith. Omaha has a similar instance in its history. Many years ago an angry crowd of strikers sur rounded the gate at the smelters, waiting for the men at work to come. out. A small squad of police was on duty, but was helpless, apparently, and unable to avert the riot that had commented. Through that crowd pushed and tore his way a tall, powerful man, clad in the garb of an Episcopalian priest. He thrust himself into the fight, tore apart combatants, and lifting up his voice commanded and obtained quiet. His short discourse stopped the conflict, dispersed the crowd, and saved no one knows what crime. Father John Williams' long career as priest and leader, contains many striking instances of service, but none greater than that performed on that day in August, 1891. "A soft answer turneth away wrath," and the spirit of the mob quails and disappears before the presence of God as manifest by His house or His servant. Sanctuary is not always avail able, but it is encouraging to know that it still is respected even by blood-maddened men. Out in California. If the supporters of Wilson and Cox can get any satisfaction out of the situation in California, they are welcome to it. For many weeks they have hugged the delusion that sufficient defec tion would ensue from the republicans to give the vote of the Golden State again to the party of promises. Candidate Cox went out. of his way to spread taffy on Hiram Johnson, openly seeking to foment a schism and seduce Johnson republicans to abandon their party. The answer to this is Johnson's speech at the Sacramento convention, where he again warmly pledged his support to the candidate of his party. That Sen ator Johnson was disappointed by the outcome of the Chicago convention is admitted, as were his followers throughout the west, no place more so than in Nebraska. Yet, just as Senator John son would have looked for and received loyal support from his opponents had he won, so he is ready, to' give it .to the man who was nomi nated. Johnson republicans are not going to as siarJidemocrat into the White House to suc ceed Wilson. Party unity in California means that not only will the electoral vote of that state go to swell the Harding, majority, but that an other reoublican. will sit in the United States senate, where now Phelan, a democrat holds , forth. This is republican year on the Pacific coast, just as it is in Nebraska. Inertia or Indifference? One question is uppermost in connection with the vote on the constitutional amendments: Do the people really care as to the details of the form of government under which they live? For fifteen years a steady and sometimes impressive agitation for a new constitution was kept up. This waned somewhat with the adoption of the prohibition amendment, but had a new birth with the increased agitation for woman suffrage. The request was acceded to, a convention met, and after full time diliberation submitted forty-one propositions to the voters. These have all been adopted,good, bad and indifferent; some represented principles, some policies, some were needed as progressive legislation, some smack strongly of reaction, but all were taken on and will become embedded in our fundamen tal law, from whence they can be removed only by reversing the process by which they were there lodged. This is all right, and would excite no com ment, were it not for the aspect of the vote. If Douglas county is to be accepted as a basis fpr comparison, less than one-fifth of the voters of the State expressed themselves when given an opportunity to decide what sort of law they will live under. To be sure, those who did not trouble to go to the polls are listed as giving assent to the outcome, and would have been so counted no matter which waythose who did vote decided, Is it inertia or indifference? Are the people willing that a minority should determine always in these matters? It would be more comforting it tne vote naa Deen nearer ine loiai 10 wnicn the state is entitled. Not a Good Tenant. Visitors to the White House grounds report that the back yard is a "sight." It is said to be unkempt, even shabby. Several reasons may be ascribed for this, chief of which is that the pres ent tenant knows his lease is not to be renewed, and therefore he is not worried over small mat ters, such as litter in the back yard. Then, the sheep have but lately been removed. It is not on record that a flock of sheep ever took 'much pains to tidy up the pasture when on the eve of starting for other feed lots. The sheep were put on the White House lawn as an example and inspiration, but if it ever had any effect no one noticed it. Few ifany owners of comfortable city homes set up as amateur flqfk masters dur ing the war, using their green lawns as pastures for browsing Cotswolds or Southdow.ns. Neither could the naked eye discern that the president's experiment had any reflection on the soaring price of wool, which went up, not so much because of scarcity as for the reason that the secretary of war commandeered 600,000,0()0 pounds to clothe 4,000,000 men, or at the rate of ISO pounds per man, which was a fairly liberal allowance, see ing that the average man gets away with about six to eight pounds per year in civil lifeJ How ever, the laniferous beasties have been removed from the Whfce House grounds, and in time the back yard may be restored to something of the attractiveness that marked it when "T. R." and his tennis cabinet used to meet there. Thrifty and the Thrift Stamps. One very encouraging report comes out from Washington. It is to the effect that nearly three fourths of the total issue of War Savings stamps are yet in the hands of the original holders. Total sales were $11,168,200,000, of which up to the middle of Setpember but $360,000,000 had been redeemed. This proves that the original idea was a good one. The stamps were offered in small denominations, in order that those who could not afford to buy a Liberty bond might contribute in some way to the financing of the war." An, attractive rate of interest was made, and. sales so regulated as to give every small investor a full show for his money. When it is remembered that the great bulk of the stamps went out in two-bit installments, the total of more than a "billion dollars is imposing. It rep resents the faith of a people in its government, the impulse of the persons of smalt means to be of help to the extent of their ability, and un questionably Involves many personal sacrifices. A quarter of a dollar does not seem much, but to most of tfe buyers' of War Savings stamps it was often all they had, and in loaning even that small amount to Uncle Sam, they were do- - That the Pullman company carried over to surplus the tidy sum of $3,313,700 for last year will not make travelers pay the rates demanded with any more of resignation. "Women of , the World Indorse Lcague"- Headline. I x But the women of Maine did not. It may be merely a coincidence, but people have come to associate the autumnal equinox with a gulf hurricane. ; Old King Ak surely is showing his guests a royal good time this week. California republicans know where they stand on Asiatic exclusion. Who will dare to follow where Henry leads the way? Miles Standish should be in Omaha today. An Eye Camera. , The smallest camera in the world which has actually ' taken" pictures is doubtless the eye of the frog. It 'has , been found that if a frog is kept in the dark for some timethe retina of the eye, on being dissected, is found to have a purple-reddish color which fades away or be comes bleached on exposure to daylight. If the eye be placed in front of a window and left there, or "exposed" for some time, and then fixed in a four per cent solution of alum and optogram is partially fixed and retains an inverted picture of the window with its cross bars as pictured on the retina. It is claimed that by a similar pho tograohic process the last picture or image re tained by the eve of a dead man or animal may be preserved Boys' Life .

There is a shire that we love well, It's fame is world-wide. It lies upon the eastern shore. Down by the banks of Clyde. Loch Lomond hills are nice to see, So beautiful and fair. There is nothing on this planet That with them you can compare. For scenery and for grandeur It will fill your heart's desire. And make you glad you took a trip Down to Dumbartonshire. i Dumbarton Castle you will see, Beside the winding river, Which seems to say as in the past, Dumbartonshire forever. t I would like to see that place again, Where the song birds never tire, Around the heather hills and dales, Of old Dumbartonshire. Some day I will return again. To the place we all admire, And then we'll have a Jubilee, In old Dumbartonshire. JOHN M'KIRDIE.

CURIOSITY is not one of our besetting sins; but we should like to know what Mr. Wilson really thinks about Mr. Cox. ' B. L. T. NATURE IS LION'S DIETI CIAN. Today we continue quoting Pro fessor McCollum's answers to food questions: "What food, next to breast milk, is best for a baby?x Wholesome clean, fresh, pasteurized milk. "At what age can a baby begin the use of orange juice? After the first month the Infant should have orange juice daily in the diet, "Are there any other fruits that contain this dietetic essential except orange juice? These qualities are found in almost every fresh fruit, with few exceptions. Lemon Jdtee is very much more effective as an antiscorbutic than orange Juice, but I would not advise giving lemon julco tc a very young baby. Cooked or dried xfruits lose this property. Cooked or canned tomatoes is the one food which retains its antiscor butic properties to a high degree after cooking. "If milk and leafy- vegetables are essential, how about the Esquimaux and also how about carnivorous an imals? When a carnivorous ani mal, such as a lion, kills, it eats its prey following this order: It cuts the throat and takes the blood as the first and best thing, then it opens the brain cavity and eats the brain, then it opens the abdominal organs. Lastly itmay eat the mus- "I asked an explorer if he had ever seen an Eskimo kill a reindeer p.nd what procedure he followed in eating it. He said the first thing an Eskimo wants is the fresh, warm blood, second the glandular organs. They also like the marrow of the bones and the soft ends of " the bones. The blood, brain, glandular organs, and bone marrow are fairly rich in protective foods. A person who could not get milk or leafy vegetables could get along fairly well on a carnivorous diet if he ate blood, brains, and glandular organs from time to time. "How about eggs? They are not equal to milk and leafy vegetables in the protective food substances; A chick as it develops in an egg not only uses up all the white and yel low, but it draws on the chell for about half its calcium. "Can a person live on seed or seed products alone (wheat, flour, oats, rice)? It is not possible to secure adequate nutrition with diets dorived solely from seeds. "Which part of the wheat berry has most protective food value? The germ and -the . bran. The white flour part has very little. , "How about potatoes? Potatoes belong, to the tuber or root group. They Contain relatively few cells and relatively much stored starch. They have only a small quantity of protective food substances." rcating Whooping Cough. Mrs. E. L. writes: "How should I care for my 3-year-old child during whooping cough? He does not whoop, but he has a hard cough which gets worse toward evening and he coughs all night. He coughs up a great amount of phlegm and often throws up his food at the same time. I have been applying various preparations to his che :t and used the croup kettle to relieve I the choking, also gave him onion juice, glycerin and lemon. He seems to get no better and I am greatly ( worried." REPLY. You can continue what you are doing. While this treatment will not do much good, it will do no harm, and a mother feels that she must do something. Whooping cough has a certain course to run. Protect the child against pneu monia by avoiding chill, cold, heat and exposure generally. We recently carried a story about benzyl ben aoate treatment for whooping cough. Your physician might try that in this case, but it is better suited to cases with more spasm. Needs Selected Exercises. Mrs. N. C. B. writes: "1. My 10-year-old girl is developing round shoulders. What shall I do?" "2. I am 45 years old, have been constipated for years. What would you suggest? Should I quit eating meat? I have always eaten a great deal. I like vegetables and eat plenty, but do not like fruit. 1 notice you recommend fruit." REPLY. 1. Do .not permit her to carry heavy books to school. Have her take exercises which develop the shoulder and neck muscles. If pos sible, have her swim, row and climb trees, ladders and ropes. Put up a bar for her. and, have her do the giant and other! whirls. 2. Eat bran as a bread and as a cereal. Eat both vegetables and fruit. If necessary, take mineral oil. You may require small oil en emas about one ounce. 0 .,.j44vv. MS 7 vr z Negroes ns American CIUmmis. Omaha, Sept. 21.

To the Editor of The Bee: It looks very much to the man in the street as thoueh the too zealous friends of the league of nations were in dire extremities when they will resort to the "faking" of news such as has recently appeared in some of the newspapers which are' supporting the league "as she is." Such head ings as "War In 'So and So' Will Be Averted by the League," when as a matter of fact the rumors of a war between "So and So" never had any foundation except In the warped imagination of 6ome pro-league jawsmlth.
