How About Thii, JuJgc)
Our m Io a the neighbor are getting !
I'uiMi) up over the town election, which are t
It held tod'. "1 hi i i it houll te, for a
Ltaltliy rivalry for local oilier i an Indication
of a proper fivk i!irit, and mean progret fjr
the town. I low ever, a new phe of politic
praclice U rroppJng out. From one town come
word that the women arc conducting a campaign
cf their own on line that are novel and may
rove to It effective. It it reported they have
erved notice on the o,uthfui swain of the coui'
muiiity: 'Vou vote our ticket, or you can not
court our daughter!" Whether this comet under
the "corrupt practice " act or not, it aniounti to
putting a young nun under considerable pre
ture. Conceivably, he may be glad to vote for
hii proipeetive mother-in-law or the candidate
of hrr chpice, and equally he may have a mind
of hit own and an inclination to follow it. In
the latter event, if he ttands well with the young
ldy in the ca-e, he may ditcovtr way to get
around her mother' barricade. It hat been done,
and, if the boys over in Iowa are anything like
they used to be, they will not be much put out
by the reported effort to control their vote. It
will be interesting to note the return from the
Haukrye ttate this time.
Church and Good Citizenship.
I'icii!rnt Harding' remark to the Bible
chol chit of a Washington church will take
dctft hold tu rriuu American. The man who
t choen by hit countrymen to aume the re-
tpnnMblc of lice of pretident of this greatest of all
republic, is brought face to face with the big
; ToMcm of national life a no other man can be.
Jle must liandle all perplexing questions of a
complex rocial and industrial condition, with
laiiucv and jiMice to all, and to the permanent
advancement of 'the common interest. That he
turn to the Mot High ior guidance is not to b;
wondered at. but is a natural thing. When War
ten i. Harding call on the church to aid in re-
adjtit-ling society, to overcome the frivolous
tendency oi the people, he docs so because he
believes that through the influence of the church
in no other way, the public mind will be tran
(tuilied and public restlessness quieted.'
Union of church and state is not involved in
this, and the president has no thought of sur-
tendcring the political existence of the land into
control of the ecclesiastical. His own words
make clear his intent:
In spite of our complete divorcement of
church and slate, quite in harmony with our
religious freedom, there is an important rela
tionship between church and nation, because
no nation can prosper, no nation can sur
vive, if it ever forgets almighty God. I have
believed that religious reverence has played
.a very influential and helpful part in the
matchless American achievements, and I
w ish it ever to abide. . (
The church rose magnificently to its oppor
tunity and met nobly its obligations .while the
war was on. Some regret is felt that it has not
""so entirely answered the call made upon it since.
Perhaps this is due to a reaction that involved
all, yet now the church should arouse and make
itself felt. '
Omaha has lately had one or two good ex
amples of how the church may properly exercise
its great power and. exert its tremendous energy
lor the common weal. Inculcation of the doc
trine of good citizenship, which includes rever
ence for law and order, is as essential as are the
dogmatic tenets of religion. Sound morals nec
essarily include those qualities that make for
stability in the state. If the church can aid in
restoring the simpler life, as the president sug
gests, to the republic, it will have justified itielf
in peace as it did in war. And when the Amer
ican people will accept its religion with less of
frivolity and more of sobriety, the world will be
benefited, for it is yet true that "righteousness
isaltcth a nation." ,
"Exaggerated Patriots."
An attorney, pleading before the supreme
court of Nebraska, in the course of his address
referred to the American Legionnaires as "ex
aggerated patriots." His exuberance may have
exceeded his judgment.
A little less than five years ago those "ex
aggerated patriots" were glorified plowboys, ex
alted bookkeepers, sanctified street car conduc
tors, humble but necessary plumbers, students
at the university, and otherwise employed in the
pursuits of peace. The government reached out
and put them into a great army, the mightiest
that ever waked by its tread the echoes of
America.
Four years ago, they were in France, at
Chateau Thierry, Bellcau Wood, St MihieL in the
Argonne Wood. Some of them are there yet.
Those who came back never want that ex
perience repeated. But they know that when
they marched away they left behind some who
did not want them to go, or to come back; some
who hoped and prayed and did all they dared to
undo the great object this country set out to ac
complish. Remembering this, those boys have
pledged themselves to a program they think is
needed to insure that if this country ever has
to defend itself again, it will not be divided.
They may be wrong in their method, but
there is nothing askew in their patriotism, even
i it be of a little "different character than is ex
pressed in the lives of some who did not feel the
breath of war so closely as did the American
Legion.
Finding Homes for Children.
"There is no substitute for a father and
mother."
This is a simple expression of the belief upon
which the Nebraska Children's Home society has
built a work so magnificent that a Nebraska
ranch owner has bequeathed $35,000 for the en
dowment of its work.
The' Home society has no home; it finds
homes. It does not try to take care of homeless
children by placing them in a dormitory main
tained by charity; it undertakes to find foster
parents who will adopt them into homes that
are homes in every sense of the word. In its
28 years it has aided 7,000 boys and girls; it has
tound permanent homes for over 2,000. Today
it is taking little children, outfitting them with
clothes, boarding them for the short period until
a home is found for them, finding them, homes
and supervising their care in these homes until
they are 21 years old all at an average expense
Influence in the World.
The world after all is nothing more or te
than the people who live in it. It grain and it
ores, it machines, it gold and silver are worth
nothing at all until they are energized and put
into use by the human beings whose heads and
hearts direct it all.
Two men on an Omaha street corner were
heard the other day debating the identity of
Omaha' most influential citizen. One mentioned
a certain banker, scheduling the wealth at hi
command. The other named a man of ordinary
wealth and said: fy man represents people.
He represents them because he knows them and-
ihey know him; he spedks for thchi and they fol
low him. Your man may win once by might of
his wealth: in the long run my man is bound
to win because people always win eventually
over any material thing."
The last man was right. He who controls
people through his service and example controls
more than wealth, for wealth is effective only as
people use it and no man yet has gained posses
sion of so much wealth that its power alone out
weighs the will of everybody else.
Another Sign of Improvement.
An Omaha business man called attention to
the bank statements, published during the week,
as an evidence of improvement. Increased de
posits, amounting to something like $15,000,000
over the total of a year ago, he accepts as proof
that money is coming out of hiding and going
to work again. The end is not yet, nor is it rea
sonable to expect it ever will be reached. Many
people distrust banks or any institution for the
safe keeping of money, and prefer to conceal
their possessions, after their own fashion. Timid
ity among owners of money usually manifests
itself when a period of depression sets in, and,
unwittingly, these contribute to the stringency
by withdrawing from circulation all the money
they control. Cash kept in a safe deposit box,
in an old sock, or a tin can, may be secure from
theft, but it is not doing its share of the world's
work. However, with a renewal of confidence
this comes out of hiding and gets back into har
ness. . That is what is taking place right! now.
Dollars that have been in concealment for
months are showing their faces in public again,
and business is better all around as a result.'

The Welcome to the West.
The' city commission's appropriation of
$10,000 for a comfort station at Elmwood park
is tardy recognition of a courtesy long due au
tomobile tourists passing through Omaha.
Although thousands of cars traverse the va
rious cross-country highways through Omaha
every year, they are lost in the volume of traffic
incident to a great city. That is why the needs
of the tourists have not been impressed upon
Omaha as they have upon many of the smaller
cities along the way, which have established
comfortable camping grounds with the various
conveniences of water, fuel aud light. Yet such
conveniences are needed even more in a big city
than in the smaller town, for here the tourist
does not feci free to knock at the door of a
stranger's house and ask for water or other serv
ice, as is frequently done in the country.
The Elmwood park ground will simply repre
sent in a modern way the same spirit of hospi
tality which used to be extended by every settler
to the ox caravans of pioneer days.

Holdrege Progress. v
Any serious compensation measure based on
an equalized taxation will meet with popular ap
proval. The bill passed by the house Thursday
seems to carry no provision to this end and will
probably result in great confusion. It remains to
be seen whether or not the service men will
accept it. '
Blooming ton Advocate.
H. M. Crane The people of this vicinity gen
erally approve of the bonus bill as passed by the
house. The only feature remaining is the financ

on the people in the way of taxation. If the

made to pay the bill there would be no hardships.

Crete Vidette.
J. H. Walsh In an interview with bankers,
American Legion men and business men as re
gards the bonus bill passed Thursday by the
house, the sentiment is strong against the bill.
All are opposed to the certificate plan and view
with alarm the throwing onto the small banker,
in this agricultural community, these frozen
securities. In the small towns where competition
is extreme it becomes mandatory on the small
banker to put out money in a 4 1-2 per cent in
vestment, while business firms would be handi
capped for further loans.
Air Yacht for Vincent Astor
Butter market slid again; next we will hear
of lard slipping. "
Vincent Astor has bought a Loening air
yacht, powered with a 400-horscpower Liberty
engine, and may be seen this summer cruising at
the rate, of 120 miles an hour between Southamp
ton and Newport. The machine, a monoplane,
Will permit him to make .in twenty-five
minutes the trio which ordinarily took several
.hours is expected to use the machine also be
tween Rhinebeck and New York.
The Loenine yacht holds the world altitude
record of 19.800 feet for flying boats. It was
ordered by Mr. Astor after he had flown in one
at Palm Beach last February.
The boat is a five-seater, with a wing spread
of forty-two feet and length of twenty-five feet.
It is the last word in aircraft, with a holder for
golf bags among other accoutrements. It weighs
2,500 pounds. Its colors are mahogany and
white. It has a bottom hull of metal.
Mr. Astor will have his flying boat in June.
It hasn't a name yet, but there's going to be a
christening.
The Durchase marks a return of the interest
in flying on the part of Mr. Astor, which was
noticeable before the war. Others who flew in
this type of machine in Florida are Will Hays,

Habics Xot Fright Marked.
Anxious Mother writes: "You say
in your column that It will not cause
a birthmark for an expectant moth

"If that doesn't cause a birthmark,
will you please . advise me what
does?"
. REPLY.
Fright or other mental shock
experienced by a pregnant woman
cannot register on the body of her
unborn child. There is no anatomi
cal machinery for doing this.
A birthmark means that at some
place on the child at some time dur
ing its development something went
wrong.
In some instances it is the result
of disease which the child had, for
such children have diseases. I
In some it is the result of physi
cal injuries. In some no cause is
known.

D. S. writes: "I am working as
polisher of buffer on metal work.
Will you please advise me if that
dust is going to the lungs. In the
middle of the day I feel a lump in
my throat and chest."
BE PLY.
Metal polishing and buffing is the
hardest of all trades on the lungs.
Many polishers and buffers dies o
consumption.
Have your cnest examined.
What does the factory inspector
say about your work place?
Yes. It Spoils Home Brew.
E. G. N. writes: "You will be do
ing the community a service by dis
cussing the use of chlorine in our
drinking water.
"So many complaints are being
made and so many protests printed
that there must be a strong feeling
of suspicion regarding the use of
the chemical.
"Is chlorine, as used, beneficial, or
is It only theoretically so? Is the
continuous use of it harmful in any
way?
"Can it impair the health or vi
tality of babies? Do the lower ani
mals take kindly to its presence m
water?"
' REPLY.
When the water supply is not al
ways above suspicion it snouiu De
chlorinated.
The Chicago typhoid death rate Is
about one-fifteenth of what it was
when the use of chlorine was begun,
and much of the improvement Is due
to the greater safety of the water.
Drinking water treated with chlo
rine has been in use for more than
10 years.,
It is consumed daily by many mil
lion people in' different parts of the
world.
If such use does harm no proof of
the fact has been developed.
This applies to babies as well as
to adults.
Osceola Record: There are still a
few neople who believe that we have
lost something because the gas tax
bill wasn't passed, and in the ex
tremity of their anxiety to condemn
the legislature, the probability is that
the sorely pressed democracy or tms
state may even conclude to endorse
the gas tax in their platform this
summer. As the Kentucky colonel
remarked, "You all kaint tell a speck
about it."
Harvard Courier: The daily papers
say the democratic issue this year
will be hard times. The repuoncan
answer to this will be that hard
times would have come anyhow, re
gardless of the party in power, that
tlje democrats left the country all
shot to pieces and that it is unrea
sonable to expect tha republicans to
come in and straighten things out in
a couple of years.
Pierce County Call: President
Harding is called by the tailors the
best dressed president the country
ever had. Is this a drive for the
woman vote?
Harlihgton Herald: Just because
scandals and crimes occur occasion
ally among the movie actors is no
reason to suppose that all the people
engaged in that vast industry are
immoral. Such reasoning is absurd.
You might just as logically conclude
that because a banker goes wrong,
all bankers are crooked, or that be
cause a minister becomes involved
In soma scandal the whole clergy is
corrupt. It is not fair to the hun
dreds and thousands of men and
women engaged In the moving pic
ture business to reason thus. Con
sidering their number, the scandals
and crimes reported among them are
remarkably few, and you may be
sure those that do- occur are piayea
up by the newspapers for all they
are worth..

Try Afternoon Naps.
M. A. R. writes: "I have a niece
12 years old who always wets the
bed. Her urine smells very strong.
She does not eat much vegetables
and is crazy about meat.
"Do you think she can be cured,
and how?"
REPLY.
To overcome the odor of the urine
see that she drinks more water. '

This Is why the human mind thinks

from a sense of physical discord to
