GERMANS WOULD ESTABLISH
AERO-POST SERVICE

An indication that the war has been
great aid in developing aerial navi-
cation is found in the fact that
corporation in Berlin proposes to es-
tablish an international aerial post
service, and if this proves successful
a passenger line, according to the
December Popular Mechanics Maga-
zine, The experience with heavier
than air machines in the present war
fully warrants such an enterprise, in
the opinion of the promoters. The
company hopes to run a line between
Berlin and Constantinople, via Carls-
bad, Vienna, Budapest, etc. Between
these larger cities there will be num-
erous landing stations, the cities
chosen for landing to subscribe for
shares in the company.

CUP OF SALT BRINGS So

Correcting the misconception held
by many that Alaska is a region of
ice and snow, DR.. E. S. Sherman, in
- rncent talk before the Pharmaceu-
tical Club of The Ohio State Univers-
lty, SAID that all kinds of berries,
fruits and vegetables are raised along
the coast, which does not have cold
climate.
mining and salmon canning are
the main industries of Alaska" he
said. "The white people in Alaska
are chiefly from the Western part of
the United States and the Alaskan
towns resemble those Of the Western
states. The gold fever strikes boom
ing towns and changes them overnight
At one place where gold prospectors
rushed in, the scarcity Of food boost
ed prices until SO bought six cups of
flour and So one cup Of salt"

WHATS The MATTER
WITH OHIO
Continued from page one)

In 1918 the Cox legislature changed
the form of the ballot so as to sepa-
rate the state from the national tick
ct. The next legislature (Republican)
restored the ballot to its previous
form. It now developes that Mr..
Cox and his colleagues on the Demo-
cratic state ticket were swept into
office by the Wilson tidal wave; and
the form of the ballot was chiefly the
cause.
While Wilson has carried Ohio by
over $4,000, Mr. Cox has been elect
ed by only ssh. Governor Willis
led his ticket; Mr.. Cox had the lowest
majority on his ticket. The evidence
is that tens of thousands of Republi-
cans were swept off their feet by the
Wilsonian anti-war and prosperity is
sues; they had nothing against Willis
or the rest of the Republican state
ticket; but, not understanding how
to scratch the ballot they simply put
cross under the rooster for fear
Of lnvalidating their ballot. They
thus defeated Willis and the entire
Republican state ticket, as well as
the legislative ticket, and in many
cases the local Republican ticket as
we'll
There was a secondary cause for
the election of Mr.. Cox, and that was
the wholesale support given him by
the liquor interest. At the last
moment the state liquor league sent
out secret circulars to all the saloor
keepers of the state calling on then
to vote for Cox as ga friend" II

lOWERY'S FORMER BAD MEN JOIN
 IN IGNORING JOHNNY CALLAHAN, SOUL SAVER, ON HIS ANNIVERSARY!

New York. Dec. 20-One time con- ricts, bishop, ex-bartenders, an edi- tor of the Methodist Book Concern, a former forger-one by one they came Into the old stronghold of the Paul Kelly gang at 293 Bowery, yesterday afternoon. to help the Rev. John-to help Johnny Callahan observe the twenty-sixth anniversary of his con- version.
 Johnny. as the Bowery knows the Rev. John Callahan, who once was convict himself, but now is head of the Hadley Rescue Mission in the Bowery as we'll as g. chaplain of the of the Methodist church. the Rev. Da- vid G. D6wney of the Methodist Book Concern. Ed smith-once forger and worse, but now a' mission worker md the rest of the men who, Johnny realized, would talk. the floor, that heswould be grateful to- them if they would only praise God for what He had done for Johnny and not dwell upon what Johnny has been doing for, the other Johnny cal|ahans of the world.
 Ex-Down ana Outer Tells Story. But a man who had forged his mothers name, and later been fed and clothed by a friend in Louisville and then had cheated his benefactor. and finally was drunkard and thief on the Bowery until he met Johnny Call iahan one day twelve years ago. when this man got up to speak he told some mean things about Johnny Call lahar,. He gave the circumstances, for instance, of an attempt at black mail made against him since his re- form.
 My wife and T." said the speaker, 10 had frankly told the assemblage of clergymen and Bowery down and outs about his own early misdeeds, s'knew the charge was unjust but we didn't know how we could fight 1t as we lacked the means to do so. .Jchnny Callahan heard about our troubles and he came to me and .said: You're in the right; Ed, so fight 1t out. We can get a lawyer Because I have little home of my epwn up in Hartsda1e and we can raise the money by mortgaging it. .
 r Prelate Praises Real Christian. Tis And when Bishop wilson arose to speak the bishop did respect Johnny's. wishes to the extent of confining his exordial remarks to words of praise. and thankfulness to God for His mer- cies to the sinner. But then tempta- ton came to the bishop and he fell he couldn't resist the impulse to say that when Johnny Callahan 26 years ago last night began life anew there came into being about the finest Christian gentleman Bishop Wilson ever had met. And the Bowery said a fervent 'Amen!'
 .tAnd what the same Saviour did, for 1ohn,'' the bishop concluded after

eulogy of Johnny and an apprecia- ton, of the great part Johnny's wife, who sat in the background behind the Christmas decorations. had had in the Bowery missionary's work, "he can do for. you and for me, boys. But" Bishop Wilson added with sin- pie humility, 'I don't know that you and I can do what John has done. All of us, however, can try to keep thinking of the other fellow as John is always doing"
 Mrs. Callahan Disobeys Spouse.
 Johnny's wife absolutely disobeyed the mandates of her spouse when she arose to speak. Mrs. Callahan began with brief remarks about the time the faith came to her years ago when she was a student at Oberlin College. The next moment she was we'll into the subject of Johnny Callahan as a husband and father, mission worker and man.
 An intellectual looking man stood up and told of his wild ways as a stu4 dent in an Austrian university, of his descent to the depths at home and of his later days and nights of drunk eness and crime on the Bowery. Then he told of a night almost nine years ago-Jan. 8, 1908-when he, "a Bowery bum," had crept into Johnny's mission to get out of the cold. Johnny Callahan. he said, picked him up spiritually as well as in a real physical sense. wherefore today the man is a teacher in one of the city's leading educational institutions.
 Converted Gangster Speaks
 And there was Charley, who remem- bered the night-January IT, 1905- he met Johnny and thereafter put be- hind him the life he had begun as a drunken gangster in Billy McGlory's. Charlie now work every day, dresses as well as any other mechanic with a steady job, never has slipped back and never will"
 '.For the t~ssAe me hfe,'' concluded Charley in fervent words that still smack of Chimmie adden,s lingo, I'm offa the booze and the rest of them things-those things, I mean"
 At dusk there were sandwiches and coffee and the rest of the filling things that Johnny and Mrs. Callahan some how manage to scrape together for their charges. In one corner sat a big swarthy man munching his sand wiches. Last Saturday night he drift ed into Johnnny's rooms fresh from serving a ten year sentence in Danne- mora. He was wearing 8 pretty good overcoat yesterday-It was Johnny Callahan's overcoat until last Saturday night, so Ed Smith confided in whis- pers-and as the ex-convict, who comes to Johnny's nightly meetings regular ly now, drank his coffee and finished his sandwich he sat motionless for a long time gazing into space as if he were thinking deeply. q
