The instruction in folk-dancing which the children now receive in the public schools and recreation centers has done much to develop whole some and delightful form of exercise, and has given picturesqueness to the dancing in the streets. But yesterday I found myself pausing on East Hous- ton street to watch group of chil- dren assemble at the sound of fa- miliar dance from hurdy-gurdy. and looking up I met the sympathetic smile of teamster who had also stopped. The children, absorbed in their dance, were quite unconscious that congested traffic had halted and that busy people had taken d moment from their expressing problems to be refreshed by the sight of their youth and grace. For that brief instant even the cry of war extra" was unheeded. Lillian D. Wald. in the Atlantic.

"Know America" is a slogan that should ring out from every school room, office, farm and shop in this na- t1on. No man can aspire to higher honor than to become a capable citi- zen, and no one can merit so dis tinguished title until he Is well in- formed of the resources, possibilities and achievements of our country.
 This is commercial age and civ ilization is bearing it's most golden fruit in America. We are noted for our industrial achievements as Egypt was noted for her pyramids; Jerusa- lem for her religion; Greece for her art; Phoenicia for her fleets; Chaldea for her astronomy and Rome for her laws. Likewise we have men who will go down in the worlds history as pow erful products of their age. For stand ing at the source of every gigantic movement that sways civilization is a great man.

Ten Reasons For a siIo.

1. The maximum Of. forage crops can be saved for livestock feeding purposes.
 2. Forage crops in the form of si. lage are eaten without waste.
 3. The crop remains fin form which Is not only nutritious. but also sucoulent and therefore palatable.
 4. The crop is stored in conve. nient place and in compact form. About four times more dry matter in forage crops can be stored in a given space in the silo than by field curin g and storing in the mow.
 5. Making silase out of forage crops Is the most economical way to harvest them under all conditions.
 (. The abundance of favorable years can be stored to be utilized dur ing years of scarcity.
 '. The silo makes abundant succu lent forage possible the year round.
 {. The addition of silage to the ra ton improves the whole ration.
 9. The cost of tho ration Is ma terially reduced by the feeding of si lage with all classes of livestock.
 10. The silo makes it possible to keep livestock on every farm This means diversified farming and ths growing of forage crops which are the surest crops.

PAGE PRESENTS NOTE IN LONDON
First Step to Protect American
Rights-Only Legal CaTeat,

London, July 16-American Ambas-
sador Page visited the foreign office
today presumably to give the British
government a summary Of the draft
of the new American contraband
note.
Washington, July 16.-The United
States holds that tie rights of Ameri-
cans who have cases before the Brit
ish prize courts rest on international.
law and not on British orders in
council or municipal law, in brief
statement cabled to Ambassador Page
and presented by MIN today to the
London foreign Office.
Secretary Lansing explained tonigsH
that this communication was not to
be confused with the general note
now in preparation relating to contra
band and interference with American
commerce. He said it was in the
nature of legal caveat, generally
concerning tne rights Of Americans
whose cases are about to be tried
by British prize courts.
AS the prize courts have not ruled
on any American cases and are be-
lieved to be about to do so, the state
mens from the United States signifies
in effect that if there is denial Of
justice, diplomatic protests will be
entered, based on tie general prin-
ciples of international law existing
before the outbreak of the war.
The United States has given Great
Britain as we'll cas- Germany general
notice to this effect, and the state
ment now sent draws particular at
tention to prize court cases pending.
it will be made public here tomorrow.
