Squirrel Lovers, Up and at Them!

Omaha may soon be the scene of a lively
rnction between two schools OF nature lovers.
The Audubon society is about to declare war on
the red squirrel, alleging that he chatters and
frisks through the forests of the village in such
unseemly manner that the favored feathered
choristers shun our shady avenues and bosky
parks. Mebbe So but II hasn't been proven.
The squirrel is busy little scamp, and he frisks
his bushy tail across the paved streets and along
overhead wires in utmost nonchalance. Neither
noisy auto nor fearsome trolley holds aught
OF terror for him, and from a safe spot on tree
trunk or a telephone pole, he will scott at the
most active dog that ever jumped in futile rage
He will make his way to the uppermost balcony
OF the tallest apartment house, and there &C
oept his ration of ready cracked nuta from the
hands Of his fair hostess, and will even enter and
search her home in quest Of more. What song
bird has shown this quality of social adaptable
ity?
We want songsters, but surely the woods are
big enough for them and the squirrels both
John James Audubon found II So and II isn't on
record that he ever advocated killing off one
kind OF Gods creatures that another might live
Let's make very sure the little red squirrel
really deserves determination before we declare
war on him.

straddle that is Almost Stretch.


Our democratic brethren are at this juncture
facing a dilemma more annoying than ever be-
fore encountered by that party. Having miser-
ably failed to carry out promises made in their
campaign. such as TO reduce the high cost Of
living. save money on governmental expense,
and the like they are now under compulsion OF
taking some action to protect American industry
against European after-the-war competition.
Their antipathy to a protective tariff is leading
them through many devious ways in search Of a
remedy, with little avail. Even the president is
now understood as being on the point Of aban-
doning his ethical" plan for holding the foreign
ers out OF the American market. although he is
still looking for a substitute for the tariff.
The policy Of protection, as developed by
successive republican administrations, will not
be lightly set aside. Under II American indus
tries we're fostered and built up, while under the
democratic policy OF free trade the manufsctur-
ing enterprises OF the country are seriously
menaced. Coming new phrases such as the
dumping" that is now filling so much OF the
official utterances from Washington, will not
alter the situation. The straddle OF the admin
istration and its supporters the tariff ques-
tion is becoming a genuine stretch.

Protest Sent to Great Britain.

The long-delayed note of protest to Great
Britain has finally been dispatched from Wash
ington, special messenger being now on his
way to London with the document. It's contents
are but meagerly disclosed in the dispatches
from the capital. but are said to follow the lines
of the original memorandum on the topic of
the order-in-council Of last February, under
which the British government set up a war zone
practically including the seas of the world, ana
totally putting to one side the declaration of
London. The position OF tho United States was
plainly made known at the time, and since then
rothing has occurred to even suggest recession
from this attitude. Certain events nave aggra-
waited the case while others have served to delay
the more formal process Of diplomatic pro-
eedure, now under way. The language of the
Tote may be later given to the public, but II is
taken for granted that the president has upheld
the case OF the United States against England
With the same firmness as he did in the contro-
versy with Germany.

Bankers and Farm Credits.

In his annual address to the Nebraska Bank
ers' association, President McNish approaches
the topic of farm credits from friendly stand
ioint. and offers some suggestions that are
worthy OF careful consideration. His principal
p'oposal is that the matter be left to state
rather than to national, legislation for the forma
ton and direction of the agencies through which
the end sought is TO be attained. The need of
hetter means for the financing OF farm opera
tons is apparent. but the method of supplying
this want is not so readily determined. The
bankers have great interest in the subject. and
are not inclined to hamper any feasible plan.
Their views are surely entitled to consideration.

THE OLD SONGS.

John d. Long.
The songs we sang were few and plain:
We sang them Ger and DER again.
Twas long ago, yet now and then
We meet and sing them Ger again.
And when the last sweet chord had died,
We sit in silence side by side.
Our hearts are full to running DER
With raindrops from the skies Of yore;
And none dares speak, but, silent ell.
We almost hear the shadows fall.
Then. while the twilight deepens fast,
As dim and somber as the past,
Like souls revislting the spheres
Come back TO us the buried years,
And in their light, but not as then.
We live their seasons DER again,
Till closing round our downcast eyes
We feel the binding tear-mists rise.
The olden songs. the simple lays,
Full Of the breath of other days.
With dear associations rife,
Have come to be a part of life.
And though they touch the heart with
pain.
We sing them Ger and DER again.

Stock Judging \

! 4 Il 81 y 5tlIHt 4 .
The instruction in stock-judging Civ
en- the past week by Mr.. Wuichet at
his four meetings in the county, for
the benefit Of the boys who expect to
enter the contest at the Medina Coun-
ty fair were everywhere well attend
ed. IA
Starting in on Monday afternoon,
about 35 boys fro mMedina and Bruins
wick assembled at Clyde Hatch's
farm, north Of town, where Mr.. Wui-
chet instructed them in the points that
go to make up a perfect draft horse.
On Tuesday morning the same group
of boys visited Mr.. F. H. Gibbs place
in Brunswick and studied that gentle
mans fine herd of Holstein cattle. In
the afternoon they went over into York
township for the study Of pigs.
On Wednesday group Of forty
boys from Granger, Medina and Shar-
on, augmented by a goodly number of
interested farmers, gathered at G. 2.
Ganyard's place in Granger township.
The forenoon was given to cattle judg-
ing while the afternoon session was
taken up with a discussion Of horses
and hogs.
On Thursday morning, the banner
crowd Of the wtek, seventy-five boys
and men, met at Mr.. Townsend's fine
place at Chippewa Lake and studied
his thoroughbred Guernsey cattle and
splendid Belgian draft horses. In
the afternoon the crowd was given in
struction in what constitutes good
porker. AT this meeting the boys
came from Lodi, Leroy, Seville and
Homerville, the latter place sending a
fine delegation Of over 20.
Mr.. Wuichet finished the week at
Litchfeld, where Supt. A. M. Allen
der and Mr.. Willis Leach had every
thing in readiness. Here as elsewhere
a large crowd was on hand, proving
that parents and pupils are deeply in
terested in the real problems Of rural
efficiency.
All the week Mr.. Wuichet's lectures
were most interesting and practical,
and served to arouse a deep interest
in a better class Of stock. Everywhere
the boys gave splendid attention to
his remarks.

County Track Meet

In many parts Of Medina county
mothers pies, cakes and doughnuts
are growing stale on the pantry shelf.
No, gentle reader, the boys Of the
county have not suddenly lost their
appetites, but Jack, Bill, Bearney and
Pete are not indulging in such friv-
olous dainties just now. They are
training to get into condition for the
county track meet Saturday, May %.
This statement will no doubt relieve
many an anxious mother who has been
watching her sons apparently failing
appetite with wonder and apprehen-
sion. If, in your travels over the
county, you observe some youth with
glaring eye-balls and wobbling knees
pounding along the highway in an
apparently exhausted condition, be not
alarmed for the boy is only getting in
to condition for the half mile run and
hasn't yet succeeded in getting his
wind and his muscles up to the requir-
ed standard. Most Of the schools are
training for. the school relay, which
viii be the banner event Of the day.
Several requests have come in for
a pole-vaulting contest and, if four or
more boys signify their intention Of
entering this event, it will be added
to the list
The festivities will close with ball
game between two county high schools
but arrangements have not yet been
completed.
This track meet will be general
picnic day for the schools Of the coun-
ty and will be attended by large num-
bers Of people from all parts Of the
county. Let everybody come and
bring his lunch basket.
The final examination for eighth
grade pupils will be held on Monday
and Tuesday, May II and 18.
A letter from Mr.. A. P. Sandles
states that it has been definitely de-
cided that but one contestant from
each county may enter the state spell
ing contest at Columbus, June A. This
viii be a severe disappointment to
many pupils, not only in Medina coun-
ty, but elsewhere, who have planned
for two contestants at Columbus, one
| for grades and one for high school
students. It is expected, however
that many grade winners will be sent
to Columbus on the date Of the con-
test, even though they may not com
pete, as reward for their fine efforts
and to take away some Of the disap-
pointment caused BY the decision al
Columbus.
