Beginning of Playground Movement.

Beginning Of Playground Movement.
Omaha, Sept. Ito the Editor of
The Bee: Omaha papers frequently,
in commenting on the history of the
playground movement, name certain
persons as having had much to do
with the founding of this spirit here,
from whom l would not detract one
ounce Of credit, but seem utterly to
neglect others who are even more en-
titled to credit, If enthusiastic and
faithful hard work count for anything.
Among them the late Frank Heller,
well-known and able attorney,
whose memory is as fresh today as
then amongst those who personally
knew this big-hearted and whole
souled character. e. A. Benson is
another, but in these later items re-
ferred to above, his name occurs.
Then there is Judge W. W. Slabaugh,
also another whose name the writer's
modesty forbids mentioning.
1t is only fair to add that no four
persons gave more time, thought and
earnest work against great obstacles
and lassitude of public interest than
these.
Please keep these names in mind
when in the future referring retro
spectively to the playground move
ment in Omaha, especially to its
earliest history, its very incipiency,
and oblige many besides,
THE WRITER.

British Trade Restrictions.

Recently published notice Of extensions of
regulations to apply to traffic between neutrals
lead to the conclusion that John Bull intends to
push his sb-called blockade Of Germany to the
very limit. In the newest Of announcements priv
ileges heretofore granted the Overseas Trust Of
Holland, especially formed to comply with the
conditions Of the "Order in Council are cut off,
and Holland Is to be put "on ratons," as are
Norway, Sweden and Denmark. While the
United States is not yet limited as to what 1t may
import its export sales to the Scandinavians and
the Dutch are to be determined by the British.
Meanwhile. American firms affected by the
British blacklist and those whose private letters
have been intercepted, failing to secure relief at
Washington, are going to London to beseech for
the right to do business in the open markets Of
the world Efforts to arrange for hearings are
under way. and the firms concerned will under
take to convince the British trade minister of the
injustice he has done.
From Washington we learn that Secretary
Lansing is watching the situation, as he has been
for weeks. The trouble is that "watchful wait
ing" doesn't seem to accomplish any more in the
direction Of protecting American rights from
British interference than it did in Mexico The
spineess foreign policy of the administration is
in keeping with its career in other ways

Greece and the War.

Greece Is not to enter the war Immediately as
an active participant On the contrary, the new
premier announces, 1t will maintain an attitude OF
neutrality, very benevolent as to the Entente AL
lies, and its attitude to others to be determined
as events develop. In the meantime the Gre
clan army is to be demobilized, and an election
held as soon as the soldiers are settled in their
pursuits Of peace. This solution Of the grave
situation has some advantages for Greece. The
country will not be put to the enormous expense
of actual participation in the fighting, and may be
able TO save Its face when the ultimate settlement
day arrives Its territorial rights we're long ago
destroyed BY the belligerents, who crossed Greek
soil at will, and set aside protests with no con-
sideration. Thus, willy nilly, the Greeks have
had to passiyely take part in the strife. The ma
tional dignity Of the country has been as thor
oughly outraged as il it had been overrun by hos
tile troops while its home affairs have been kept
In turmoil by reason OF the conflict between fac
tons concerning the course to be pursued, Now
it has met the fate of the clay pot that went to
swim with the brass pots. 1.-THE glory that was

Seth Low.

When Seth Low died an end came to useful
life. This will be his recommendation to poster
ity. A man OF parts endowed beyond the COM
mon run Of men with foresight and capacity for
planning and achieving, he gave his services al
most wholly to his fellow men. In an age where
genius Is commonly directed to serving selfish
purposes, to enhancing private fortunes, and to
setting up individual interests, he was notable
exception. AS mayor Of Brooklyn and mayor Of
New York, as president of Columbia university,
and as one Of the founders and president of the
National Civic Federation, he found employment
for ability Of high quality and to the very end of
his days was interestedly engaged in helping
others. His career may we'll be studied as an ex-
ample Of what man may do for humanity.

Science and the Sun.

BeIleview, Neb., Sept. 16.--To the
Editor of The Bee: l would like to
answer the last communication of FL
liot Loomis to The Bee, in which he
wishes to know what temperature a
ray of sunlight would have after pass
ing through 100000 miles of space
at 273 degrees below zero. / answer
him, none at all. To explain: An
ETHEREAL ray (either of light, heat,
or electricity is the direction Of
energy-fux, or it may be considered
as a labeled disturbance which en-
ables the eye to fix direction Tin the
case of light. The simplest wave is
expressed by the equation: VA sin
(X-VT). 1t is an ETHEREAL wave dis
turbance and wave has no tempera-
ture. A molecule vibrating, say in
Sirius the Dog-star. sets up ETHEREAL
vibrations of the same frequency, and
If this frequency is such as to produce
heat, the ether, carrying not the heat,
but the vibration which causes the
heat, will. If 1t meets a substance Of
appreciate density (the earth, say)
set the molecules Of this substance
vibrating in unison with the molecule
in the Dog-star, and the phenomena
of heat will be produced. So the tenn

no difference.
Violent storms do not cause the air
to become apprec.ably heated, ~
because storms move large bodies of
air and not individual molecules, and
(2) because cooler air from regions
not agitated by storm comes in and
nullifies the results. The same is true
of water.
The rudy appearance of the planet
Mars is easily explained. A red OBJ
ject reflects as red the complex white
light that falls upon it; blue object
reflects blue, etc. Now three-fifths
of the total surface Of Mars is COM
posed of reddish-ochre tracts, pre-
sumably desert regions These pre-
dominating, the planet reflects red
light. This ruddiness disappears when
telescope is turned on Mars, as then
its disc Is seen and the various re-
gions are differentiated.
Mr.. Loomis' illustration OF spheres
of different volumes which he desig-
mates absurd, appears very reasonable
to me IL the fact that heat decreases
with the square of the distance is kept
In mind.

look the pains to announce at Aurora that he sup

(which needs no defense. 1t had been felt that
Mr. Sutton rejected this plank and the Aurora
Republican called attention to the matter. Judge
Button, we think, will have strengthened his posi-
! ion with many republican voters by having made
she declaration.

Why Not Tell the Whole Storya

The Child Labor bill, which forbids inter
state traffic in goods turned out by factories
or mines employing children under "a years
of age or working persons between "a and 10
more than eight hours day, is fine piece
of humanitarian legislation. By making 1t
federal law congress- thanks to the insstence
of President Wilson, has done something most
of the intelligent people OF the United States
have desired for the last twenty years-eol-
lier's Weekly.
But why not tell the whole story and say
that the Child Labor bill is in its origin re-
publican measure which would never have been
enacted except with republican support and that
its most determined opposition came from demo-
cratic senators representing states OF the solid
south, which form the backbone of the democratic
party?
Why not tell, also, that the need Of such law
is not because of conditions in republican states,
all OF which already have laws regulating the
labor OF children, but because of conditions in
few democratic-ridden southern states which
have-time and again--defeated every effort to
curtai the employment OF children in their fac
tories.
Why not tell, too, that "joker" has already
been discovered in the bill which may leave the
door open for evasion of its restrictions in the
democratic states where child labor is lawful and
still tolerated, if not encouraged
Finally, why not ask why President Wilson
remained deaf to the demand for this fine piece
of humanitarian legislation for nearly three years
and half of his administration and became active
for it only on the eve OF his campaign for re-eec-
ton in which he wanted to throw out this hook
for votes to make republican progressives believe
he was with them for progressive measures all
the time?

AS to Riding q Free Horse
-Teksmah Herald

There is no other product that people expect
to get for nothing except publicity. IT seems
impossible to make people understand that puo-
lefty circulation and space is all . the n h psap@d
money lust the same as the merchants sugar,
calico and hardware. Why should the publisher
be expected to give away his goods any more
than any other business man?
Mr.. Carson, Of the Anti-Saloon league, re-
quested the Herald to grant him free space ior
a lot of plate. We wrote him that we thought
that the newspapers were as much entitled to
pay for the space as the newspaper unions were
for the plate That we understood that fund
was provided to bear the cost OF the campaign
to carry the amendment and we thought it unfair
for them to absorb it all for salaries among a
favored bunch, and then beg for Tree space IN
the newspapers. We are just as much in favor
OF the amendment carrying as Mr. Carson or any
of his paid bunch, but we do not propose to take
shank you maams IS pay for space 1t we were ere
regular rates for all the space they desired. we
think any publisher liberal who will w eh run 'n oi
the cause to put all the money collected down in
their Jeans"
