A Wise BOND Issue.

WHILE the objections raised by Council
w man Powell to the issuance by the city
of bonds for the surface Improvement of
streets are not without force and reflect credit
upon their author, yet it would seem that
Council acted wisely this time in departing
from the tme-honored rule by which it has
bound itself to issue bonds only TO cover the
cost of tangible assets created or enhanced
For many years Council has expended large
sums in improving the conditions beneath the
streets, in sewers, water pipes and gas mains,
improvements that were absolutely necessary.
Now that this foundation has been laid, it is
we'll to make some visible display. And
though externals are frequently too much con-
sidered, there are two very good reasons why
the surface of the citys streets should be
cared for without false economy: first be-
cause of the sheer advertising value that
lies in cty's being known as we'll paved,
and second, because of the fact that the ply
steal condition of the streets is one Of the
few responsibilities OF the city govern
ment, for the neglect of which it may be
penalized in damages.

Dr.. Brady's Health Talks

One Of the most persistent popular

weather. The rheumatic invalid feels

Wars First Air Hero.

IF THE report be true that n lone French
l aviator deliberately crashed into Yep
pelin dirgible, so that he might in1ct injury
on the hated Teuton even at the cost of his
own life, then this, TO us, nameless man may
go down in hStory--at least French history
the first air hero of war. twenty-five oc-
cupants of the German balloon are said to
have been hurled to death as a consequence
of the Frenchman's self-dcvotion. so that, al
though soldiers Of many nations have met
death in testing military acroplancs. the
Frenchman would appear to be the first de-
liberately TO use the greatest of the century's
wonders deadly weapon.
No doubt his country will honor him by trb
utes in prose and verse, and man may say
that he is not worthy of them many an
other celebrity of war whose tale of slain has
been longer For even to those of us who cry
ont against the war as an insane and futile
barbarism, there is thrill in the thought of
that lonely bird of battle, circling high above
the pomp and circumstance and noise of war,
who, when he perceves the vague bulk of the
enemy, dasfes himself against it, that he
may carry 10 death the foes of La Patrie.
To the philosophers mind, it is true, there
exists little difference between this man and
the hairy, club-swinging denizen of Europe S

The Final Call to War

NJ OW the mailed hand of Europe's ruthless
l War Lord has penned the final word
that needed TO complete the call to what
must approximate in very truth a war of the
worlds. Germany has forced war upon
England. In spite of the Kaiser's asseyera-
ton that he desired merely to traverse Bel
GUM in the operation OF his armies against
France, he has replied to England's pacific
and patient request that he withdraw his
troops from the country whose autonomy she
seeks to protect by throwing his frebrand of
war into the face of the pacifcator
Now the war becomes more than interna-
tional; il is practically internecine. For the
German Emperor and the King of England
are not merely cousins by royal courtesy, but
are cousins by blood first cousins, both grand

venerated all over the world--Victoria of

arms of France sought by every honorable
means to avoid this hideous war.

Our mothers liked to use the jellies
more for Washington pie than for any

jelly roll has taken the place of that
cake. An inexpensive foundation for
the pie may be made as follows:

\ Probable Consequence

THE immediate causes of the present tense
situation in Europe are so many and SO
deeply hidden under the cloak of diplomacy,
as it is practiced in Europe, that it is i'm
possible to lay the blame upon any one Of
them or upon any one man or nation. The
probable consequences are numerous and
so vast that no mortal can foretel them
On the surface there seems to. he cause
at all, and yet there are thousands of causes
running back into the last century if not
into preceding centuries. Changes in the
map of Europe and the impovershment of
millions are certain, but what nation will
lose the most territory and what nation will
gain the most, and what peoples will undergo
the greatest suffering, is behind the veil of
the future-a veil which cannot be pierced
by the keenest eyes, nor torn aside by the
wisest. The past it is difficult to unravel;
the future it is impossible to fathom
One thing seems certain, however. The
war lords are to blame, and when it is all
over and one-man power and the strength
of greed, impersonated by chancelleries, have
done their worst their end will come One
cause OF the war is the power of monarchy
and the impotence of the Masses one conse
