THE DANGER OF COAL sAosRrasE.

Two representatives OF the Iowa
State colleges engineering extension
have ben in this city this week looking
ovr heating plants in homes and in
specting Industrial plants where fuel
Is used to create power. The owners
of the industrials appear to be
thoroughly we'll pleased and satisfied
that the visit has accomplished much
for them and the engineers and firemen
at those plants equally pleased with
the men who buy the coal. Manu-
facturers of heating plants for homes
and schools and churches highly ap-
prove the moVement-for these manu-
afcturers desire above all else the max
imum amount of heat with the
minimum of coal. Householders have
welcomed the visits of the heating
experts and agree that the inspections
and the lecturers at the club have been
Of great value to them The fact is
that most Of us who heat our houses
from the Easements know very little
about heating. We shall know much
more when the engineers are thru with
this popular school and demonstration
Of how to heat and save coal.
The great interest in the movement
ready Acceptance Of the advice Of the
engineers and the wiling assistance af-
forded the committee are evidence OF
the readiness Of the people to accept
to the war that offer real opportunity
of service. And conservation OF coal
is a war measure as well as measure
defensive Of bushes industry and the
individual home. we must keep the
home fires burning II we are to keep
the homes properly We must also keep
alive and working the industries upon
which so many OF our homes depend
for subsistence When fuel ceases labor
stops. The schools stop. The homes
suffer.
There has never in the history OF this
country been SO great and insis1en'
need for the effort OF eeyry person
who fgeeds fuel to fame. 1t ts up to
the small householder as it IS 10 the
large manufacturer. Indeed the great
waste Of fuel Is in the homes, not In
m factories: for factories pay large
salaries TO men trained 10 save fuel

carelessness Is In the house basement

1t is useless to theorize in the face Of
history and human nature. Disloyalty
must be suppressed legally and prop
erly or II will bring on mob violence
as it always has done. More even than
that, the demand will be for active
loyalty on the part of every American.
The conclusion viii he thauthose who
are not for America in this war are
against her And we must face the
facts.
The war councils should be made UP
not of Office seekers and AK grinders,
but OF trustworthy men and patriots,
judgmaticai men with courage. and
being thus constituted should be given
authority measurable with the neces-
sity. We have scarcely entered the

INTELLIGENT OPTIMISM.

lSlOuS lily SOu1hdl'J ~.
Quite without reason, there is ten
dency in some quarters to condemn as
pessim!stic the spirit Of those Ameri-
cans who day IN and day out are try
ing TO educate the people to the mag
nttude OF the things they have to do,
To be pess.mistic. one !nfers, 10 next
door to being unpatr!otic; and pessi-
mism consists Of honesty.
Sometimes it is the history OF indi-
yiduals that thru sheer ignorance OF
The obstacles ahead Of them they
stumble cherfuily thru. but that can
hardly be said to be the rule. And not
MANY men OF experience would recon-
mend it as the better policy. Nations
even less often than men blunder to
success. They succeed sometimes ce-
spite blunders. but not because o:
them. And 1t ought TO stand as axio-
matte that the sureAt way to avoid
mistakes is TO have q good idea OF what
one Is doing.
The optimism founded on either in
ability or refusal to look problems
souarely IN the face is a dangerous
optimism, and It is particularly dan
gerous when the way ahead Is gravel
neset. II is not wise optimism on the
part Of the American people to con-
cIude that, since weaare in the right
We must inevitably prevail. and tina,
therefore there is no occasion FOL

many. It is not wise optimism tina,

sourcefulness, his strategic advantages

MIR. BRlsBAiNEs PAPER.


Some days ago The Journal noticed
a strange face in its newspaper mail
1t was the Washington Times, Mr..
Brisbanes paper Consulting the label
on the wrapper The Journal discov-
cred that the Times was to be deliv-
cred for an entire year. Inasmuch as
The Journal subscribes for the news
papers it receives, and therefore makes
it's own selections, and inasmuch as
the Washington Times Is not on that
selected list, The Journals curiosity
was aroused. 1t wondered who could
be sending the Times to its desk. and
for what purpose. But it was not long
in the dark. The most casual inspec-
ton Of the Times discloses that it Is
more interested in the liquor business,
in the overthrow Of prohibition where
1t has been established and in the de-
feat Of the proposed national prohibi-
itory amendment than in anything else.
Mr. Brisbane's personal views on the
subject of liquor and prohibition long
have been known. The Journal has
seen 1t intimated that the money with
which he purchased the Washington
Times was supplied by the liquor In
terests. Whether that Is true 1t does
not know of its own knowledge. The
Times, however, bears every evidence
that 1t has been subsidized by the liq-
uor interests. It's main purpose Is re-
sistance to prohibition; the continuance
Of the saloon. How many other news
papers beside The Journal have re-
csived complimentary subscriptions TO
the Times? Who Is supplying the
money for these subscriptions? 1t
would be interesting to know. The
Journal would not be surprised to
learn that the money comes from the
treasury Of the organized brewers.
The Journal does not believe that
many newspapers in the United States
will be fooled by the Washington
Times, or by the brewers. Ut does not
believe that newspaper opinion can be
corrupted or Influenced in that way.
It is coarse work. The newspapers are
onto" Mr.. B-isbane's curves. as they
are onto" the curves of the brewers.
The battle is on. 1t is not going TO
be summer picnic to secure the rati-
fcation of the national prohibitory
amendment. At the outset the advo-
Gates of prohibition should be pre-
pared for stiff fight.

Now let me see where we left on IN
the last story. Sometimes I almost
get all mixed up, and perhaps I'd never
get things right If didn't make =
scrap book out OF these Billy Bunny
stories, so that I can look back and
see whether 1t was Uncle Lucky or the
Good Natured Bear, or the Yellow DOG
Tramp, or Aunt Columbia who had to
stop doing something because I didn't
have any more room.
Well here we are. The Yellow Dog
Tramp had Just posted his photograph
to his dear old mother way up in New
Hampshire, and after he had thanked
the PQstoffice Lady, who was an old
maid duck he jumped into the sleish
and Uncle Lucky said:
Hurry on, you Reindeer,
Make the snowfakes fly,
Faster, faster, faster,
Don't you balk or shy!"
And then you should have seen how
those Reindeer went. Well, sir. they
went SO fast that pretty soon their feet
hardly touched the earth, and then
they didn't touch at all, ana then, oh.
me; oh. my! They rose right up in the
air just like low sailing rocket, over
the tree-tops and over the steeples,
over the houses and over the peoples.
Goodness, me! There goes my type
writer again making up poetry and not
putting it into verses, and II 1t does dt
