Story of Michigan's
Defeat in Figures

score might have been much closer, as
it was Weston's substitute who fun
bled one of Berry's punts on his own
8-yard line and gave Penn. her first
score. Yost, however, in one way called
the turn. Some one before the game
told him that Berry had missed five
fairly easy drop kicks against Dart
mouth. an that case" replied Yost,
"he's about due to-day, and will prob
ably kick three or four against u.s." He
was eminentiy correct. Out Of four
chances Berry kicked three. and the
sole miss was forty-eight yards away.
against the wind.
Berry at His Best
Berry played fine football through
out, ably assisted by Penn's veteran
backheld and by line which showed
vast improvement over earlier perform
ances. Michigan's showing was keen
disappointment all the way. While
Yost had explained before the battle
that he had only a fair team, team
not up to the advance notices, more
snap and dash and better tackling were
expected. Michigan's tackling was
poor, her backs failed to get away at
any speed, and her head work was
even worse, as on two occasions her
men lost many yards by falling on
punts within Penn's 10-yard zone.
IL was not until the battle had been
irretrievably lost that Michigan began
to try her forward passing game, and
this was futile.
Penn has undoubtedly made wonder
full strides in the Last three weeks and
u would be an interesting test TO see
just how she would fare against
Georgia Tech now, after that 40--l
beating early in the veal.
This Penn-Georgia Tech game, played
for the Y. NJ. c. A. army fund or for
the Red Cross. would not only draw in
many thousands OF needed and import
ant dollars, but would also be one of
the best football games Of the 1917
campaign For Penn has come forward
far enough to overwhelm q team before
this game conceded to be one Of the

Unusual Significance of Flag psy.

Flag day is an event of unusual Importance
this year. The Stars and Stripes are again NOV
ing to the battle front to lead the way to freedom
for oppressed peoples. No scream OF the eagle
is heard but the deep and rcsolute note OF a
strong nation aroused in its might, in the sound
of which may always be distinguished the doom
OF tyranny. The day should therefore bring an
enthusiastic climax to the drive for the sale Of
the Liberty bonds, pledge by America to the
world of devotion to the cause. In Nebraska it
will witness the conclusion OF the states jubilee
celebration with such ceremonies as properly de-
note the vigor and strength of an established
commonwealth. Throughout the land Flag day
will have a significance this year beyond that of
any since the occasion was particularly so desig-
mated and as such will be observed by an aroused,
united and patriotic people, who will renew today
pledges given to posterity by our fathers and by
US TO be handed on to ages yet to come, of all
that self-government means to man,

One of the problems of the volunteer soldier
has been the question of his employment after
the war is over. Many of these have left with
some trepidation and misgvings good positions
and prospects of advancement, with no assurance
whatever of being re-employed on their return.
Others have gone out with full assurance of their
employers that they would be reinstated on their
return, with no loss of rights or pay. A notable
example of this policy is the course adopted by
the employing printers Of the country. By agree
ment between the Newspaper Publishers associa-
tion and the International Typographical union
all printers who are employed on the papers rep
resented in the association will be returned to
their employment after completing the term of
their enlistment. A similar arrangement is recon-
mended to the members of United Typothetae
and Ben Franklin Clubs of America who repre-
sent the employing printers in the book and lob
division of the great industry Like action BY
others OF the big employers OF labor would have
most encouraging effect on the young men who
are now hesitating because OF not being able to
foresee what will happen after the war is over
and who would like something to look for

It seems even probable-that this June il going

Very likely and naturally so. Weddings that are

months are wedding months-brides bloom every

clouds are highest up in the air, when deener

Iennyson, June is the month when the world is
young. The coming of the June brides is lust as
normal, Just as much part of natures beautiful
and wisely ordained scheme as is the blooming Of
the roses ~
Down below the equator, where the seasons
are reversed, December is the month superlative
OF roses, nesting birds and blushng brides. Which
goes to show that approximately all the poets,
though not all the brides have blossomed north
OF the equator. Think of poet celebrating De

OF southern Chile he must tune up to December

Passage of the Espionage Bill.

Inc espionage measure as finally sent to the
president for his approval contains some very i'm.
portant provisions and eonfers on Mr.. Wilson the
oroadest powers ever granted an executive of this
government Some extraordinary, even imperial
hitherto only implied functions, are now con-
irmed by law-thngs that only can be tolerated
as war measures and which in time OF peace would
be strenuously objected to as CARRYING too much
authority tor one man to have. Control of ex-
ports included m this BILL is one of these things.
This may be vital in an emergency but surely is
dangerous in its possibilities and may only be
exercised with utmost of prudence and on most
conclusive proof that normal course of trade is
being turned awry. On behalf of the bill II ba &
been well urged that the safety of the country at
this time requires that unusual power be vested
in one central control, and congress has given
this to the president. His use of it will mark
hnally his ultimate claims to greatness
Mr. Wilson's personal request for arbitrary
authority over the press Of the country was prop
erly denied by congress- and freedom of publica-
ton remains as it has been since John Marsbalrs
decision actually made the press of the United
States tree The government will go on just the
same, subject to criticism and under the full light
on reasonable publicity. No newspaper will
delioerately betray our country and ample means
Tor Furnishing such exists without the esoecial
power the president asked.
Mr.. Wilson is no longer leader of party, but
is head OF great nation moving magnifcentlv
to the accomplishment of great end. He is
charged with the utmost of responsibility, now
heavier than ever, and therefore he is entitled
to have more than ever the cheerful supnort and
hearty cooperation of all the people This will
make his load easier to carry and, if anything,
tighten the touch of the law on all

King Constantine's Downfall.

King Constantine of Greece has been tumbled
| from throne on which he has for months bal
anced like an acrobat on swaying wire. His
| pro-German tendencies were his undoing With
no ability as statesman or craft as politician,
he signally failed as head of the Greek nation at
| time when both strength and wisdom were re-
quired. Since the outbreak Of the war Constan-
tine has been out OF touch with his neghbors and
his late allies, preferring for his own reasons to
favor the side espoused by Bulgaria, with whem
he was but lately engaged in desperate battle, and
so found himself unable to make headway against
the pressure of events.
The interest OF Greece lies with the entente
allies, fact clearly foresecn by Venizelos, who
has shown himself far too clever a manager for
the deposed king. The combat between the
former premier and the king has been fierce and
unremtting and has ended in moral if not mate
rial endorsement OF the position taken by Veni-
zelos in 1914. The presence OF Greece in the war
IS OF greater value to the allies now than it was
some months ago 1t removes the possibility of
menace from the rear of the forces that are
operating in Macedonia and elsewhere against
the German forces in the Balkans This theater
of the war is quite likely to become more than
~ important 90 pooS'oiy opening the way over
which peace yet may travel. Under any circum-
stances, the settlement of the Balkan question
will be made the easier with Greece lined I'D
alongside its allies in the struggle against
Bulgaria.
Some sympathy might be expressed for Con-
stantine had his sincerity been beyond suspicion.
His efforts at neutrality have always been open
to question, though, as serving only the cause of
Germany by bockading the way to relief for
Serbia and Roumania, pawn in the great game
played by the kaiser, he has at last been swept
from the board and gone to the limbo of the most
useless things known to man--discarded monarchs,

TAKE THE LOAN"

BY Edward Everett Hale.
written in May 1851, at the outbreaj
Of the civil war)
Come, freemen Of the land
Come meet the great demand,
True heart and open hand,
Take the loan
For the hopes the prophets saw,
For the swords your brothers draw.
For liberty and law
Take the loan!
Ye ladies of the land,
AS ye love the gallant band
Who have drawn u soldiers brand.
Take the loan,
VINO would bring them what she could
Who would give the soldier food,
Who would staunch her brothers blood.
Take the loan!
All who saw her hosts pass by,
All who Joined the parting cry,
When we bade them do or die
Take the loan,
As ye wished their triumph then,
As ye hope to meet again,
And to meet their gaze as mon,
Take the loanI
Who could press the great appeal
OF our ranks of serred steel,
Put your shoulders to the wheel
Take the loan!
That our prayers In truth may rise,
Which we press with streaming eyes
On the Lord of earth and skies,
Take the loan!

Fremont Tribune: The manner in which
Omaha men have subscribed for Liberty bonds
indicates that the loan is to be made a tremen-
dous success. Some of them, men who one
would have scarcely thought able to do it, have
taken $4,000 apiece. The success of the loan
will have powerful influence on the proper pros
ecuton of the war
Beatrice Express: Omaha officials are going
to prohibit the sale of fireworks for Fourth Of
July, asserting that there is no necessity for the
useless expenditure of money on fireworks. 1t
might also be added that there is no necessity for
the useless expenditure of life which always goes
with insane Fourth celebrations Sufficient pow
der is being exploded in Europe to warrant our
changing the custom this year.
Neigh Leader: Nebraska has had its first
month of prohibition and confessedly it has
brought some surprises to everybody In the first
place the most surprising thing to the people out
IN the state is the seemingly honest efforts being
made in the cities, particularly Omaha, to enforce
the law. 1t had been anticipated the officers in
such centers where public sentiment was opposed
to the law would wink at its violation, but such
does not seem to be the case. In the second
place, the rapidity with which the many buildings
in Omaha and other cities formerly used for the
liquor traffic are being turned to other uses. The
Omaha Bee on June made a census of the
buildings thus used in that city with the following
results Number of buildings occupied by sa-
looms and liquor houses before May /, 33l. June
all these except eighty were used for other pur-
poses and of this number 224 were for the sale
OF soft drinks This would seem to answer the
question what should take the place of the saloon
IN the city as poor mans club" and also indi-
Gates that the passing Of the saloon has not been
as disastrous to the real estate interests as pre-
dicted: In fact, it would indicate that by the
end OF six months the rental proposition will be
entirely solved.
