NOT WORTHY THE NAME.

Fergus County Argus: Arbor day
in Montana is u good deal of farce.
The law should BE- repealed or made
of some practical value. 1t inter-
feres with business in the closing Of
banks and public offices. TO those
whose salary goes on just the same it
makes no particular difference, but
why should business be uselessly in
terrupted it nothing Of tangible bene-
fit is gainedy There isn't even sutli-
cient sentiment aroused to make the
day worthy of the name. One great
mistake is made in the designation of
the day or date by the governor Of the
state. May 10 is u month too late for
Arbor day this year and is too late
any year for the planting of trees.
Trees in this section are nearly all
leaved out and blossoms have fallen
off from the apple trees. What the
governor Of the state should be en-
powered to do is to issue early in the
spring IA general Arbor day proclama-
ton and authorize the county COM
missiOners in each county to set the
actual date of observance. This is Il
large state, 50 great III extent that
climatic conditions vary many degrees
in temperature in different regions.
\ date that may do for the center of
the mountain region would be too late
for eastern and western Montana.
This being true it is impracticable for
the governor of the state to fix arbi-
trarily the most appropriate time for
the observance of the day.

A FINE POINT IN EQUITY

An old-time story of the fine points
of law and equity which arose in car
rying out an amieable contract is told
I'm the Philadelphia Record. There were
four brothers who inherited a storage
warehouse from their father. He had
divided the property equally. among
them.
Among th9 appurtenances was a cat
a fine animal excellent for housing.
This, too, was divided, the eldest broth
er owning the right front quarter. the
second brother the left front quarter,
and the younger brothers the two hind
quarters.
Now. unfortunately, the cat in one of
its nocturnal prowls, injured the right
front raw, and the eldest brother at
tended to that portion by binding up
the injured member with a creased rag.
The cat, thankful for this relief to
its sufferings, went to sleep contented-
ly before the fire: but in the midst of
it's slumbers a falling coal ignited the
rag. end the animal bowling with ag
ony dashed through the warehouse.
and coming in contact with some COM
bustibles set the building on fire.
Wien the loss came to be figured out
the three younger brothers wished to
throw 1t all upon the eldest on the
ground that had he not tied up his part
of the cat with an inflammable rag, the
building would not have been destroyed.
He, on the contrary, contended that
had the cat only been possessed of the
front right paw-his property--it would
have stood still and burned to death.
IT was the three other paws that caused
the damage.
The brothers argued the case until
they died, but they never reached an
agreement.

and there is always one Book to which
he can turn"
Jowett eyed her a moment, and then
answered:

In spite of the reputation for lati-
tudinarianism he gained from his early
trial for heresy Professor Jowett was
intolerant of pretentlousness and shall

THE EMPTY SOUL

A Partisan writer in the Philadelphia
Record describes a recent fad OF
French women in this amusing man
ner:
"A friend, after a year in Paris, has
taken to the French makeup of clear,
warm pallor, with lines of languor
cleverly painted about the eyes. She
is now the most extraordinary and in
teresting mixture of two different per-
sonalities-her own by nature, which Is
bright and merry, gay and laughing.
and that which she assumes every time
she looks in the glass. Seeing the pa
thetic, wistful expression of her face,
she Immediately plays up to 1t, and
takes on airs of languor and yearning

is empty and asking for mate. Hus-
bands seldom fill the role, and hers Is
thousand miles from even seeing
what is expected. Why. he has not no
ticed even the white makeup. Hus-
bands don't. 1 suppose that after
few years of marriage they rarely look
at their wives. The husband of dec
ade sees his wife when she comes into
the room, and, instead of really look
ing at her, he conjures up automat-
ically the picture of her he carries In
his brain. He is not to blame! Wives

NO DANGER OF ovERPoPULATIoN

1t has been said that the time is not
far off when the United States will
be unable to support her inhabitants,
says Bolton Hall in practical Ideals"
But those who think that have either
forgotten or have not reckoned with
the new intensive cultivation of the
land. The island of Guernsey, in the
south of England, is from four to
seven miles in length, and about four
miles in width. 1t has a resident pop
ulation of 41,000 and visiting popula-
ton of 10000 a year, which Is sup
ports. About $4,500,000 worth of farm
and garden stuff or a little less than
$500 worth to the acre, is produced an
nually, with only 1923 acres under
cultivation. Now, If the whole state
of New York were cultivated and pop
ulated as that is cultivated and pop
ulated, it would yield annually $751;
O00, 100000 worth of farm and garden
produce and support 233,641,47S people
that is, about four times the popula-
ton of the entire United States.
Wherein then lies the danger of over
population? Only in monopolizing and
holding idle the land; where there are
unused lands there are bound to be
idle hands, for all that we eat, use and
wear comes from the land by labor.
"Overpopulation" and "pauper labor"
are not the works of nature, and If
they should ever come, the people
themselves will be responsible.

AMERICAN HUMoR

Taking for its text the fact that the
best musical comedies presented in
this country come out of london, an
eastern newspaper bemoans the decline
of American humor. 1t is just COM
plant Americans are fond of humor;
but there seems to be little of 1t in
them now.
No doubt there are humorists of high
quality in this country, but they are
not in the foreground. While Mark
Twain is still interesting, he has lost
the freshness and spontaneity of an
earlier time. Bill Nye is dead. George
AIDE is mildly funny, rather than hui
morous; the compelling quality of
genuine humor is not to be found in
his efforts. Peter Dunno got much
closer to the real thing in Mr.. Dooley;
but, then, discourses In. dialect on top
zeal themes quickly lose their peril
hence and are soon forgotten.
Perhaps the pressure of American lie
has been too severe to make possible
sustained humor of a kind that would
endure. But the time is ripe for the
coming of a great American humorist;
II Is ripe too, for the coming of an
essayist, and for the coming of a
satirist of the good quality of Swift or
Carlyle.-Seattle Post -Intelligencer.

Am INTERPOLATION oF PUSSY

Most dog lovers, those of the more
radical type In particular, contend that
the dogs mission in life is to teach
mankind that the universe is ruled by
love, says Chambers Journal Mon
taigne was fond of his dog, but 1t was
of his cat that he wrote: MY cat
awaits no ones mirth We entertain
each other with mutual follies, and If

my cat also has hers" Miss Ellen
Terry tells us that when Sir Henri
Irving lost his pet dog Fussie, which
fell through a trap door, the wardrobe
cat came down and sat on Fussie's
cushion and awaited the great actor
even as Fussie had done when the play
was over Andrew Lang says 1t Is
the cat alone among animals that at

Frances Simpson in her Book of
Cats" writes:
"At a very remote period in the his
tory of animal life the carnvorous
and predacious animals, to which the
existing cat belongs. occupied a posi-
ton In the scale of creation as i'm
portant as they do today. We find
locked up In the rocks of the ter

Months Death a Real Loss.

The sudden death of President
Mont of Chile represents a genuine
loss in the western hemisphere. Not
that he was so transcendant a figure
in the political life of either South
or North America, but he was pecu-
aiding in working out a more substan-
tial friendliness among the republics
of the south and between them and
the United States. He seemed to pos
sess the confidence, not alone of his
own people, but generally of the peo-
pie Of neighboring nations, and this,
together with his desire for better
trade and diplomatic relations, made
him conspicuousIy a fit leader
On his recent visit to the United
States, President Montt paid a per-
sonal visit to President Taft and his
entire stay in this country was at
tended with such medicines as were
calculated to promote vastly the good
work undertaken by the Pan-Ameri-
can congress. His eyes were opened
to some facts while here about which
he had evidently been in the dark
and about which other executives of
South America certainly are in the
dark. Americans had every reason to
feel encouraged over his visit and this
is why, to them, his death has a real
significance. But his influence for this
good extended beyond the relations
of his own and this country. Chile is
not one OF the southern republics with
which we are having so much misun-
Outstanding; he could, in all proba-
bility, have done much for the general
peace and prosperity Of all His death
just at this time, therefore, seems par
ticularly unfortunate.

Fire Limit Extension.

While the mayor and city council
are to be congratulated upon enact
ing the new ordinance extending the
fire limits, The Bee takes to itself a
full measure of credit for this impor-
tant move. 1t was The Bee that first
called attention few months ago to
the fact that the fire limits of Omaha
had been fixed nearly twenty years
ago and had not since been enlarged,
although the city had doubled in size
and the business area largely in
creased, and it was The Bee that kept
hammering along the line for extern
sion.
The necessity of more stringent
building regulations and stricter lin
itation of infiammable construction in
larger as compared with smaller cities
needs no argument to sustain it. The
apparent hardship involved in requir-
ing substantial construction within the
fire limits is only imaginary, because
in the long run enforcement of such
rules inures to the benefit of every
property owner, as we'll as to the COM
munity as a whole.
The city authorities have, we be-
lieve, done a good job in extending
the fire limits on all the main thor
oughfares. 1t will be time enough to
take in the side streets and interven-
ing area later as the city becomes
more densely populated. The thing
to insist on now is THAI no exemption,
special permits or evasions of the fire
limits be permitted, no matter what
the pretext or the pull.
