Such treat was given Sarah
because she had helped her mother

day. Sarah took the orange and

THE OTHER FELLOW WAS
WORSE

m HE view is held by the
VI Spokesman Review that
were Harry Thaw a poor
man he would still be regarded
by the law as insane.
Not necessarily. He might
be a dead man or a life convict
for second degree murder. But
more than likely he would have
gained his freedom sooner than
Thaw has done so.
Money was not the only fac
tor working for Thaw's release.
His money may have been a
handicap in some respects.
Unquestionably the strongest
feature of the case from the
Thaw standpoint was the fact
the man he killed was a liber-
tine. He was of the type Of
men who regard women in low
esteem. To such men most
women and girls who work, in
whatever calling, are "chick-
ems"
There is a strong opinion
prevalent that other men Of.
this same class have had some
thing to do with trying to keep
Thaw from gaining his free
dom. 1t is thought they felt
that if Thaw got ciear other
men might think there was an
open season for fellows like
White which would be bad
omen for libertines.
A semi-idiot like Thaw isl
bad enough. 1t is possible he
should be confined in an in
sane asylum for life. But the
destructiveness Of a man like |
Thaw is often not as great as
the destructiveness Of the other
fellow, if Sanford Whites
character has been properly |
depicted. The victims Of the
libertine are seldom classified |
and brought to light. Some
die in hospitals, Some in lakes
and rivers. Some die but con-
tnue to live in q measure.
The law is responsible for
lots Of worse things than the re-
lease Of Harry Thaw.

- NE of the streams flowing
VI along the eastern from
tier of Russia Poland is
Bug river. 1t is true the name
sounds more like Missouri or
Arkansas but there is reliable
information that the Bug river
is a stragetic point in the east
ern war zone in Europe. Not
long ago the Grand Duke Mich
Olas took a strong position
along Bug river facing the for
ces of the kaiser somewhere on
the other side of the stream.
It is not so strange either. To
many people the entire war is a
bug affair. If a capable disin-
terested sanity commission
could pass judgment on the
group of men who started it
there could be but one verdict.
1t was started by lordly para
noics. If the rest of the peo-
pie had been sufficiently sane
they would have required the
kings, emperors and grand
dukes to have settled the affair
with three ounce gloves or
other weapons of their choos-
ing.

NAVAL AERoPLANEs

- NE lesson of the war that
U will probably be made
the most Of in developing
the naval defense Of the Unit
ed States is the part that can be
played by the aeroplane.
It has been learned through
experience that a navy without
aeroplanes is as helpless as a
submarine without a periscope.
1t has also been learned that
the aeroplane is one of the best
defenses against the subma-
rine. AviatorS flying at an al
titude Of 500 to 500 feet can see
from $50 to 200 feet below the.
surface of the water and detect.
the presence of any submarine
craft in the vicinity of a ship,
warning it in time to escape de-
Struction.
In connection with the loss
of the Lusitania it is asserted
by those verSed in aeronautics.
that this could have been pre-
vented had the British govern
ment employed on the Irish
coast such an air patrol as that
by means of which the Russians
have kept their Black sea coast
free of Gerr%n and Turkish
vessels.
This at least is the opinion
of Charles c. Wilmer, an Am
erican aviator recently return
ed from Russia, who says that
government has been able with
an equipment of seven air ma
chimes, costing about 100000,
to dispense with the services
of several cruisers and to insure
protection. A similar opinion
is expressed by Henry Wood
house in a communication to
the New York Times. He says:
THE small investment of $20,-
600, the cost of two aeroplanes,
would have saved the Lusitania
the terrible loss of life and an
actual loss of over two million
dollars"
A battleship costs seven or
eight million, an aeroplane
seven or eight thousand. This
is cheap insurance. Looking
into the future Mr.. Woodhouse
says recent developments in
naval aeronautics show clearly
the advent of a new epoch, a
period when the ships of the
sea must face a new and po-'
tential adversary, when trans
ports equipped with torpedo
launching aeroplanes will be a
match for armored war ships
in naval battles, ana the side
winning in the air will have a
preponderous advantage over
the other.-Portland Journal.

 The lesson of it is that the French peo- pie have no time to waste upon post mor- tems.

How much wiser, how much more proud, is the village of Neufchelles Not 50, but only one year has passed since the Germans wrecked Neufchelles, and al- ready it has been disinfected of their presence, rebuilt and repopulated-not after the war has for half century been at an end, but while war still endures, while it is but 20 miles away. What bet ter could illustrate the spirit of the French. what better foretell their final victory?

The thing over which I rejoice most is that the poorer people will be given a chance to have the radium treatment This is a wonderful work for humanity and while it means much more work for me I will take it up gladly because of the countless people who will benefit from the radium.
