that the exports Of the article for the

be on an even greater scale than for
the year just ending. The outlook IN

The money market Is featarcless

movement has now crossed the $780,
100000 mark since January ! of the
current year. and II is not unlikely
that this amount will be swelled quite
materially before long. The situation
generally is a dormant one: rates are
easy and steady. and there Is no great

SONGS OF BIRDS
Beautiful Notes Of the Nightingale,
for Instance, Are inspired by
Paternal Love.

It is generally assumed that bird
sings because he Is happy. but sci
ence goes deeper for an explanation
Of the why and wherefore OF the
birds song. Natures optimistic Joy
in constructive progress is expressed
In the singing of the male birds who
charm their mates to further their
wooing. and continue after eggs are
laid to encourage the fulfillment Of
hatching.
The song stops when the little birds
come out OF the shell. The nightin-
gale. for weeks during the period OF
nest-building and Matching, charms
his mate and human ears near him
with the beautiful music OF his love
song. But as soon as the little night
ingales come from the eggs the song
changes to a sort OF cultural croak.
Implying anxiety and sense OF respon-
sibility.
II the nest and contents were de-
stroyed the nightingale would at once
resume his beautiful song to inspire
his mate TO help him build another
nest and start all over again the low
ing work OF being fruitful and multi
plying.
The Beaver herald. [volume] (Beaver, O.T. [Okla.]) 1895-1923, 1915-05-13
WHEN is A MAN DRUNK

Judicial authority in Topeka has
ruled that a man is drunk IL a police
man can detect the odor OF liquor on
his breath. IT, in addition. he talks
and laughs boisterously he is drunk
and disorderly and guilty OF breach
OF the peace. II this standard were ap-
piled TO the city OF New York It Is es-
timated that 100000 people would be
arrested as drunk and disorderly
every day. In Chicago the number
would be 100000; In Philadelphia. 3oe..
900. The claim OF the liquorites that
Topeka has a high percentage OF
drunkenness will not hold water-or
any other kind OF liquid.
In this connection II may be noted
that Topeka, with a population OF AL
102. has 20 policemen. The average
for 20 American saloon-infested cities
with a population OF $4,000 to $4,000
is 46 policemen.

BREAD OR WHISKY?

What shall we now plant, barley or
poison and kill our citizens. our young
mothers and the unborn. or wheat, to
grow bone and Drawn and blood and
brains and bravery for Britain!" asks
DR.. c. W. Saleeby. F. r. s. E. the not
ed English medical authority, in an
article In the Daily Chronicle OF Man
chester. England. He deprecates the
worse than waste in raising barley to
make beer and whisky, and turning
food material into poison. He quotes
the words OF the czar OF Russia to his
minister OF finance, 1T is not meet
that the welfare OF the exchequer
should be dependent upon the ruin of
the spiritual and productive energies
OF numbers OF my loyal subjects" and
urges his fellow-countrymen "in this
epoch-year Of 1915" to plant wheat in
stead OF whisky; bread instead Of beer;
life instead OF DEATH" adding that
never. perhaps. was there a more
