Rats And Cold Weather. (IndianapoliS NewS.)

With the approach of cold weather and lessening of the supply of food in the open there will soon be found evidence that our dwellings have been invaded by rats. We shall soon hear a chatter of pans in the pantry, squeals from the cellar (whether of fight Or play we may not know) and a scurrying of feet when we visit the attic. Rats The rat most com mon in the United States is the brown rat, usually but erroneously, called the Norway rat. Its color is gray ish brown above and ashy white be- low, with feet dusty white. This rat, carried on ships, has been dis tributed all over the world. Orig inally a native of Persia and of India, it is said to have entered Flu rope through Russia about 1725, and was brought to America about the opening of the revolutionary war in vessels conveying British and Hes sian troops. That this rat abounds in such enormous numbers is due to the fact that the female has from three to five filters year of ten or twelve at a litter. The first foreign rat to appear in America made it's way here from Europe about 1544. It was the black central Asia. White rats of this species, albinos, are not uncommon. It was the common house rat until driven off by the brown rat. The tail of the rat naturalists declare to be a wonderful appendage. It has more muscles than the human hand, performs all the functions of hand. is a balancer, and serves as a spring to aid in jumping.

The British victory on the Tigris, followed by Turkish flight toward Bagdad, is one more reminder that the present is world conflict. It should also serve to call attention again to the fact that the real strug- gle. is for the near east; that while great armies are again contending on fields so frequently fought over in modern history the prizes of the war remain far removed from the Euro pean battle lines.-New York Trib- une.

 The present war began over the Balkans. The jealousies and the ann bitions of these states and the desires of the great powers to influence them have ever been a cause of conflict. In the settlement of the present war it is to be hoped that there will be such an arrangement as to end for all time, or for so long a period as to be practically for all time so far as we, of the present are concerned, the Balkaa situation, potential ever of disagreements and wars.-Ph1ladel- phia Star.
 According to the estimate of the British chancellor of the exchequer, total British debt on March 31, 1916, will be eleven billion dollars, against three and one-half billions at the be- ginning of the war in August, 1914. Borrowing seven and one-nalf bil- lions for war in seventeen months does noes not wreck British credit. It is rather an astonishing achieve ment and a proof of resourcefulness beyond anything hitherto imagined. But it does raise the rate of interest in the world.-New York Times.
 A supreme necessity of government is preparedness against foreign at- tack. There is no honester expendi- ture of money raised by taxation. There is no more economical expendi- ture of the public money, as was shown by one great democrat, Samuel J. Tflden, in his memorable plea for adequate appropriations for harbor and coast defenses, when he contrast ed the cost of such insurance with the cost of neglect. There is no more for a bond issue for this purpose, the tariff source of revenue being available, than there is for bond issue to pay the current expens- es. of the West Point and Annapolis StabliShmentS-Ne York Sun

PREDICT MUCH GOOD
FROM DAY NURSERY

That the day nursery will have a
wholesome effect next fall and winter
is the prophesy of Mrs. Linton, head
visiting nurse. Mrs. Linton said today
that many children of school age now
kept out of school to take care of the
infants of the family will be enabled
to attend classes.
This, in turn, will keep the older
childrens' time more completely filled
and will eliminate the possibilities of
wrong doing and wrong thinking in the
idle time formerly spent away from
school. 1t is expected in this way to
increase the moral and educational
standards of entire families.
"Of course, we will not have many
children in the nursery in summer
time" Mrs. Linton said. have from

proposition Hence, Mr.. Baker says the intelll-
Rence and purpose of the people must be put into
administration It makes no difference how per-
feet the legislation it is of little no good if the
men who are to enforce it are not men Of high
character. He says:
A community which, for any reason, elects
incompetent and untrustworthy officials and is
Indifferent to the kind of government it gets is
quite certain to get bad government, however
admirably contrived the mere machinery OF adj
ministration may be. On the other hand, incon-
venient and cumbersome machinery, in the hands
of capable and upright men, often produces ex-
cellent results, especially when sustained by an
alert and intelligent opinion.
We must reprint another extract from Mayor
Bakers article. It is this:
1--WE must stop regarding policemen as mere
keepers of order, and we must enlarge our view
of their duties far beyond the arrest of criminals
and the terrorization of the neighborhood small
boy. They must be selected with reference as
much to their ability to catch and spread the
spirit of social advance as to their personal cour-
age and cleverness in following the twists of the
criminal"
How different this doctrine from that of old
hire thief to catch thief. We know better
than that now. We should not hire thieves for
anything. Nobody but clean, upright, intelli-
gent should be given any public duty To
secure the right sort of men, Mr.. Baker sug-
gests training school in connection with the
police department, where young men may learn
the true doctrine and practice of police duty.
They cannot get it out of politics or personal
favor. A police system built upon either of these
considerations is phase of public depravity-

from America, whose authors ask me
why do not write to them as for
merly, and why difference OF opin-
ion" as regards the war should mar
our friendship. I have replied as fol-
lows:
TO we Americans, who, through
some years Of residence in Germany
or Austria, have learned to know and
love these countries. this is no simple
difference Of opinion" 1t is part
Of our existence You, at distance
of four thousand miles, are able to
discuss the subject accidentally. but
we are in the warning countries. We
know at first hand their heroism, their
exertions and their sufferings. We
also know that were this war war OF
conquest, the entire nation would not
fight enthusiastically as it does today.
We are surrounded by multitude
of sick and wounded men, who in the
awful firing line have risked their
lives in our defense. We see pathetic
wrecks of splendid manhood-youths
whose limbs were frozen in the icy
trenches; men whose perforated lungs
will never heal and scholars whose
keen eyes have been forever darkened
by splinters from American sharpness.
Many Of these we knew before. Many
who fought beside them will return no
more. Parents also, who are proud
to give their sons. yet every day await
with bated breath the published list
of dead and missing, are to us familiar
figures.
We know, what history will yet con-
firm, that these two empires never
wished for or provoked this war. We
know, however, that our enemies, in
GLIDING Belgium. plotted and prepared
for it, We know that France, forever
gnawed by the devouring ulcer OF re
venge," had poured millions OF francs
into the bottomless treasury OF Russia,
that at the given moment the huge
Cossack horde might sweep resistless-
" through German and Austria, while
the troops from envious England and
complainant Belgium should. with the
millions sent from France, march
equally VIGOROUSLY to the Rhine. We
know that many ideas which you have
formed at England's instigation, such
as the notion that the German people
have been forced into this war by an
ambitious emperor Of by a military
caste. are utterly erroneous. You must
yourselves today perceive this.
The English fables that Hungary

desires to make a separate peace with
Russia, that an enlargement exists
between Bavarians and Prussians, and
that the Germans, Austrians and Hun
garians wish to dissolve their form of
government and found republics, are
ridiculous. Such nonsense, when pre-
sented to we'll informed paper ought
to be thrown into the waste basket.
This is the second time in the space
of fifty years that the brotherhood of
north and south Germany has been
sealed with blood. Even Austria,
which it was thought, would crumble
into it's component parts at the first
shock of war. displays a splendid So
lidarity; while the United States of
Germany were never so united as to-
day. Both love and loyalty to the
aged Emperor Franz Joseph and to
William II, in their respective coun-
tries, never were so strong. But still
we see you drugged by the knockout
drops of British lies, and seemingly
immovable in the opinions formed by
you in those first fatal days, when
your bewildered minds we're wax to
receive and marble to RETAIN"
