From the Wheat Country

Members Of the commission ex-
pressed their especial pleasure at such
a demonstration from this district, be-
cause it would be from the surrounding
states that much of the wheat, corn
and foodstuiTs must come to insure
final victory over Germany.
The meeting at Convention Hall was
a religious service, partly as a memo
rial for the Lusitania, sunk on May Z,
1915, with the loss of more than a hun
dred American lives. All creeds were
represented and one of the most dra-
matte clmaxes came when Rabbi Bern
stein. of st. Joseph, Mo, declared in
his speech:
81 am thankful that the time has
come when | and my brothers. as Jews,
may enter this war, even as an ally of
Russia"

Many Loose Ends Yet

Now that eight committees arc at
work on major problems, there remains
the necessity Of clearing up many other
loose ends while awaiting the reports:
The probable length of the stay OF
the mission is increasing daily, and the
original tentative date for departure
has been changed to about May 20. The
mission probably will go in a body to
New York for two days joint recep.
ton with the French on the return of
the latter from the West. and then
come back here for another week. After
that Mr. Balfour and his party VIII go
out through the Middle West and to
Canada. where they will pass few
days before sailing for England.
To-day's trip TO Gunston Hall was
unannouncod, and was made by auto
mobile. The British party stopped at
Alexandria to attend Christ Church,
where George Washington worshipped
and were not recognized until the con-
gregation fled out. They were then
met with enthusiastic applause.

Great Ovation for Joffre
The Convention Hall audience was
told by VI. Niviani that the United States
had not entered the war alone to help
France. but rather to uphold the torch
of civilization and TO obtain for the
world ultimate peace. His words were
greeted with an outburst OF applause
that subsidized only when Marshal Joffre
spoke a few words in acknowledgment
Of the thunderous ovation given to his
country and her soldiers.
"You free Americans so well under

Discussion General

Il is understood that the statesmen
confined their discussion largely TO the
programme as a whole. rather than to
detailed phases Of the negotiations.

subcommittee to discuss an Amcri-

the financial situation has been pretty
we'll clarified in direct conferences
while the naval situation has peenl
brought to point where general
conference may be sought.
Diplomatic issues, with the single eN-
ception of Mr.. Balfour's statement that
the United States would not be expect
ed TO enter an actual alliance, have not
occupied the attention Of the British
visitors. and it is probable in the un-
certain situation on all sides that there
will be little but an exchange of views
in this regard. The Russian and Soutn
American problems and the internal
situation in the Central Empires are the
main questions in mind, but they do
not admit of very definite treatment IN
conferences

WHAT IT COSTS TO

A business man writing for the July
American Magazine says:
81 am spending nine thousand dol
lars a year in raising my three chill
dren. This may seem a large amount,
and it is. By the time my children
are grown | figure that each of them
will represent an outlay of one hun
dred thousand dollars, including the
interest on the sum expended. Some
times | wonder whether it isn't too
much. Then my love for my children
sweeps over me and think that moth
ing | can spend on them is too much.
81 am called a successful man. Prob
ably | am. Some years | make a good
deal of money. Some years l do not.
Ny annual income averages nearly
thirty thousand dollars. According
to the income tax reports there are
22,184 other men in America who
make as much or more.

Piano, Organ, String Instruments.
Her method of many years study
and practical experience in every
phase of both vocal and instrumental
music, has proved to be the correct,
thorough and comprehensive system.
There are no doubt, several ways of
teaching, but there is only one true
way for both branches of music, and
the necessary requirements are natural
gifts for one or both. The brain
must comprehend, the fingers demon
strate and memory exercised.
The voice being a truly natural gift,
must possess the volume, quality and
strength for expansion. Great care
must be used in training, as either
extreme may ruin the chords and
muscles forever. A fortune is within
the reach of those to whom nature
has given the high or low expansion,
with the true resonant beauty and
quality. A delightful pleasure to the
listener, or vice versa. When all COM
binations are correct such a voice may
justly be named Musical Elocution."
Special training for young children
in combination on any instrument by
divided time. Talent in all cases must
be well tested before an opinion can be
given. Obedience all thro is abso-
lutely required. Lessons in whole or
divided courses. All missed lessons
must be made up-no excuse. Think

PROF. FISHER URGES
WAR PROHIBITION.
Waste of Cereals Used in Making Lii
yours Emphasized by Yale
Economist.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Cold facts resigned to show the ne
cessity for war prohibition were given
by DR.. Irving Fisher, professor of &C.
onomics at Yale University, when he
addressed a meeting of the City Club
and Publicity Temperance Bureau at
the City Club. William NJ. Gordon,
chairman of the Publicity Temperance
Bureau and president of the North
American Trust Company, introduced
the speaker, and Bishop Berry, of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, made an
opening prayer.
Doctor Fisher confessed himself to
be a recent convert to the cause of
prohibition, but has become president
of the Committee of Wartime Prohi-
bition and is devoting much of his
energy to the movement. He said
his attention was arrested by the re-
markable effects attending prohibi-
ton in Russia, since which time he
has made an exhaustive study into
the facts of the case from a scientific
and economic standpoint.
Doctor Fisher asserted that 11,000,-
600 pound loaves of bread a day could
be saved by turning the grain used for
alcoholic beverages into food. This
amount of bread, he said, would be
sufficient for the daily rations of the
English and French armies.
Doctor Fisher not only favors stop
ping the manufacture of liquors and
beer, but strongly urges denaturing
all the liquors in bond, which, he as
serts, would make enough industrial
alcohol to last seven months. As a
wartime measure, he also points to
the man-power that would be preserv-
ed, not alone from the labor released,
but from the increased productivity
of labor, and hence of profits.
"1f we have war prohibition" the
Professor continued, "there is no ques-
ton that we shall have permanent
prohibition, for its benefits will be evil
dent to all. 1t has been scientifically
proved that alcohol is a poison, but
this contention, only recently indis-
putably established through the re-
search of the Carnegie Nutrition Re-
search Institute, has not yet had a
chance to become a part of public be-
lief.
However, the movement for prohi-
bition may not be established on this
basic fact, that alcohol, no matter in
what quantity used temperately, is
injurious physically and mentally.
Eighty per cent. of United States ter
ritory is dry comprising go per cent.
of the population. Our army and ma
Wy are under prohibition. There would
be nothing 0 logical than to COM
plete the job"
Doctor Fisher came to Philadelphia
to be a guest at the wal prohibition
luncheon given by Mrs. Joseph NJ.
Gazzam. Bishop Rhinelander was the
other guest of honor. Both expressed
themselves heartily in favor of the
movement started by Philadelphia wo-
men to quit serving intoxicants to
girls and college boys. Other guests
at the luncheon were Mrs. George
Dallas Dixon, Mrs. Francis B. Reeves,
Jr., Mrs. Charles Lea, of Devon; Mrs.
George Horace Lorimer, the Rev. DR..
Floyd Tompkins, George Burnham ,Jr.,
S. Davis Page, DR.. ]. Madison Taylor
and Horace Geiger.

FRECKLE-FACE
Sun and Wind Bring Out Ugly Spots.
How To Remove Easily,

Here's a chance, Miss Freckle-face,
to try a remedy for freckles with the
guarantee of a reliable dealer that it
will not cost you a penny unless it re-
moves the freckles; while if it does
give you a clear complexion the ex-
pense is trifing.
Simply get an ounce of othine-
double strength-from any druggist
and a few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself of
the homely freckles and get a beauti-
ful complexion. Rarely is more than
one ounce needed for the worst case.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine as this is the
prescription sold under guarantee of
money back if it fails to remove
freckles.-adv.

"DAYBREAk" NEW DRAMA
ON MODERN SOCIAL LIFE

Selwyn & Company will produce
for the first time at Nixon's Apollo
Theatre the week beginning June IS,
the second of the three plays written
by Jane Cowl and Jane Murfin. Ever
since the announcement that Miss
Cowl had turned playwright in desire
to get away from fearful heroines
which continually fall to her lot, the
theatre-going public has been keenly
interested in the kind of plays she
would turn her hand to. When Lilac
Time" was produced in New York and
made a complete success, the critics
were unanimous in their opinion that
a new Jane Cowl has appeared with
her debut as a dramatist. Both the
play and the type of part which the
authoress chose for herself came as a
complete surprise. It was a pure ro-
nance Of youth, with practically no
indication of the modern movement.
"~Daybreak" is written in an en-
.tirely different vein. 1t is a play of
tremendous power-melodramatic in
that it involves the primal emotions
of human beings. 1t deals with a GER
tain aspect of family life prevalent
among the upper classes of modern
ONA lIINs diio 10 CICdICd n oil SllCllG-
ly original amer. The situations
which develop from a seemingly placid
atmosphere of domesticity, becomes
increasingly powerful as new COM
plexities arise and they will be sure
to keep the audience in a pitch of sup
pressed excitement until the fall of
the final curtain. There is a strong
note of human interest and sympathy
running through the play, the theme
of which is wide and general in its
application to life. 1t promises to be
the strongest melodrama offered to
the public, since Selwyn and Company
produced "Within the Law"
The producers have assembled a SUI
perlative cast to interpret the various
parts, all of which represent men and
women of refinement. 1t includes
such well known Broadway favorites
as Hilda Spong, Felix Krembs, Leon
ard Wiley, Reginald Mason, Cecil
Yapp, Blanche Yurka, Catherine Tow
er, Harry Hanlon and John Dawson.
