GOD IS IN HEAVEN-ALL IS
WELL.

God Is in heaven; all is we'll.
Does not His holy word forstell
OF wranglings such as now we see,
And of a final victory
OF right DER wrong? Does not He say
His word shah never pass away?
God Is in heaven; all Is right;
The day of Joy succeeds the night
For everything works as 1t should
To form His plan, and for the good
OF those who love Him; let us rest
Content that ever He knows best.
God is in heaven; all fears allay;
HE moves In a mysterious way.'
'Tls not His will that we should know,
But trust always, tits better so.
Although we fain the storm would qaell;
Enough; He doeth all things well.
God Is in heaven; all Is right;
From out the gloom a radiant light,
In piercing, penetrating rays,
Is leading men to higher ways;
oh. wonderful this day and hour.
When God makes manifest His power.

Solution for Transportation Problems.
Omaha, May 3.-To the Editor Of
The Bee: The country at large must
know pretty well by now that the
government intends to build or is al
ready building 1000 wooden ships
with which to supply food and neces-
stiles to the allies during the duration
OF the present war.
We are also told to grow. grow, grow
foodstuffs and more foodstuffs, par
ticular stress being laid on food being
the greatest aid that we can possibly
extend at this time toward ending this
almost uncomfortable condition.
Again we can look forward to the
coming fall, when the crop move
ment" begins. and we are sure to be
told Of a tremendous shortage Of cars
and motive power to move this
bumper crop"
The thought strikes me that IL as
war need we can build 1000 wooden
ships for moving crops, etc. to the
allies we should also start right now to
build $4,000 or maybe $4,000 freight
cars and sufficient locomotives SO that
when crop movement time" comes
we will be in position to help the rail-
roads to move same, not forgetting to
Cudl SS buld htOaub plpPSt lows
for use Of these cars.
You may say that the railroads
would object to handling these cars,
but cannot see why; at the present
time and for years past they have
hauled Pullmans all over the coun-
try, sometimes only having Ave or six
passengers in said Pullman. | feel
sure that they will jump at the chance.
To continue, believe that with this
number of freight cars properly dis
tributed over the country, say at GEN.
ters like the present locations of the
federal reserve banks or the farm loan
banks 1t would be an easy matter for
government officials to give immediate
relief to any community that was be-
ing overlooked by railroads running
through these places and as noted
above II charges on cars were made
high enough 1t would only be a mat
ter Of short time before all the
roads would have sufficient supply of
rolling stock.
The thought might then come as to
what use the. government could make
Of their rolling stock and ] say send
out our army engineers to the home
steads on the thousands Of acres of
Nebraska, Montana, Dakotas, Wyo-
ming and other states and build
feeder lines where needed to aid these
farmers to market their crops. How
often do we hear of the big crops that
could be raised IL they could only be
gotten to market.
Apparently the presidents selective
conscription bill will pass congress
and we will soon be on strong, sub
stantial war basis. Now let us prepare
to feed "our army" by Strengthening
the transportation end and making

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop turning, itching
eczema quickly by applying little zemo
furnished by any druggist for Csc, Ex-

the moment zemo is applied. In a short
time usually every trace of eczema, tet-

For clearing the skin and making Il
vigorously healthy always use zemo, the
penetrating, antiseptic liquid. 1t is not

others. fail it is the one dependable treat
ment for skin troubles of all kinds.
