ana Mlstakes Of Murphy.

In the case Of Kenneth Murphy, the young
man who has just been returned TO the Nebraska
penltentary, there TO face life sentence after
violation Of his parole, may be found material to
point several morals. when the young man, In
company with three others. had been accused
Of a serious crime, 70 which they later pleaded
guilty, it was urged In his behalf that he had
never had chance" lie was not inherently bad,
urged the people who took interest In his situa-
tion. and they succeeded in prevailing on the
governor to release him on parole, that he might
be given an opportunity to work out his saliva
ton. fIis new friends secured for him admis-
sion TO a school Of higher learning. that he might
be developed spiritually as well as intellectually.
This was to give him his chance"
He was apparently unable TO master the
first lesson In the course OF good citizenship.
that OF self-controi. Good company did not APP
peal TO him strongly enough, and he has proven
that "evil communications corrupt good man
ners." Governor Morehead Is Justly indignant
that his clemency should be so abused, and de-
clines to be further imposed upon by the young
man and his intercessors. How far the latter
are TO be held responsible for Kenneth Murphy's
relapse is not easily settled. but they must share
In some degree the odium Of failure, because
they did not watch close enough. Society, how
ever, IL Justified In protecting itself against the
youth who preferably does wrong. As his years
increase he may acquire sufficient wisdom to
realize that his first duty 70 society is to serve
others and not himself. and In prison he may
learn the lesson he failed to assimilate while
free.
But the failure with Murphy should not
deter any from seeking to lead the erring back
into the ways Of rightdoing.

The Case Of the Arabic.

The Bee has purposely withheld comment
on the case or the Arabic. waiting for the first
news 10 be supplemented by more details.
On the bare recital that another unarmed
passenger vessel carrying American citizens had
been torpedoed without warning almost within
sight OF the spot where the Lusitania was sunk,
sending a thousand men, women and children
to watery graves, the conclusion must be that
Germany has deliberately committed the 'un-
friendly act" which our government had advised
in it's last note would call for more emphatic
protest than mere words; for It is not question
Of the number OF American lives lost, nor even
Of the loss OF any life, but of the principle OF
jeopardizlng innocent lives by a submarine war
fare that is wAged without ample opportunity TO
take off passengers and crew from the attacked
vessel.
Yet we must try to possess our patience long
enough 10 learn what excuse or Qualification will
be advanced on behalf Of Germany.
In the case Of the Lusitania. the German de-
tense rested upon the counter-charge that the
boat was armed and belonged to the auxiliary
British navy, and more particularly. that It was
conveying. under the protecting cover Of human
freight, a cargo of war munitions that we're 10
DO used to make widows and orphans Of the
families Of German soldiers. full notice against
taking passage on the boat hsviag been given by
previous advertisement in New York newspa-
pers.
In the case of the Arabic. being on west
bound voyage Il could not be carrying contra
band nor could American passengers returning
home have had notice Of any special danger
The German government. in our opinion,
should be permitted to offer its explanation or
excuse. II It had any. But whether any expIana-
ton II may give can be acceptable must be de-
terminod in first instance by President Wilson
and his advisers. II the sinking OF the Arabic
is an ''unfriendly act" then we must in self-re-
spoct at once sever our diplomatic relations with
Germany no matter what other measures we
may resort 70 to compel observance of our rights
and the rights all neutral nations.

The Dollar Triumphant.

The supremacy Of the American dollar as

eliminated At last In such a break In foreign
exchange as to place the dollar at a premium IN
every country n Europe. and to make It the
absolute measure of value in commerce The
situation has not been unexpected: rather, IL
was unavoidable as America is tho one country
that has goods TO sell. while all the others now
are buyers. The beIligerents have strained
their credit in order to obtain money for prose-
cutting the war. and this has had the natural
result OF sending down the price OF their securl-
ties Flotation Of enormous war loans against

Condition OF south Omaha schools.
SOUTH SIDE, Aug. a0.-To the Edi-
itor Of The Bee: In a report OF the pro-
ceedlngs of the Board OF Education APP
peared the following: Board Member
IL. Holovtchiner called attention to the
deplorably rotton condition OF the South

that vandalism was rampant, that desks

cation for four years previous to the
merger. and each year we set aside all
that could be spared for the repair OF
school buildings During that time we
installed new toilets in several schools,
and did some interior work each year,
replacing paper with paint wherever pos
sible. Last year we painted the interior
of the high and Jungmann schools al
most throughout with a high grade of
flat wall paint. A number of rooms in
other schools were also painted last year
According to our school law we were
compelled TO keep within the levy each
year. which we did. and turned over the
school district to Omaha free from debt
except bonded indebtedness, and also
around $4,000 in cash at the close OF our
school year.
Our school buildings win compare
favorably and better with other towns
and cities. We do not know what the
purpose Of DR.. IIolovtchiner is, but he IL

statements. remember that short
time ago he was talking loudly about
the deplorable condition OF some OF the
Omaha schools, but have heard nothing
about that condition lately. Has that

that he turn his attention again i'm that
direction. The people Of South Side

No tract on politics ever became ''best

interest.
And so universal is the demand for en-
tertainment in the form of stories that the
time has come when every up-to-date bust
ness man mast realize the necessity of tell
ing good story about his business.
A small percentage of people who happen
to be in need of an article viii read the dry,
nnGdorned list of prices in the newspaper
advertisements.
But there Is a way to get al the readers
You can do it by telling them an interest
ing story in the advertisements.
An inveterate reader of the monthly mag
azines told me the other day;
1T is getting to be so that the advertise
ments In the magazines are as Interesting
and delightful to read as the fiction stories"
That is the ideal of good advertising.
Put into it the personal element, the hu-
man appeal Do it either with illustrations
or with commanding words. Or do 1t Nth
both.
The house which is known for its human
interest advertising is the house which is
doing big business and commanding a
whole lot of readers.
If your business methods, your stock and
your bargains cannot be made the bases for
a good story in the advertising columns,
there's something UrOmg with your estab-
ishment
Every success has back of it a good story.
Every idea about valuable craftsmanship is
AN inportGnt discovery.

discovery which could not be described in
an interesting way.
