POSTWAR PROSPECTS.

AS result Of the signing of the
armistice the first official steps have
been taken for the placing on a pre-
war basis Of those industries which
have had their operations curtailed
by the Government in order to pro-
vide labor, material and fuel for es-
sential war work. Orders have been
issued by the War Industries Board
and the Fuel Administration which
will reduce by about so per cent the
restrictions heretofore placed on for
ty-two classes Of industries. The fact
that automobile manufacturers are
among the classes affected by these
0rders will be a source of much graft
Hcation to prospective purchasers Of
peiasure cars. The restrictions re-
gading the erection Of Office buildings
and other similar structures have not
yet been relaxed. 1t seems probable,
however, that there will shortly be
further rulings regarding such activi-
xes, sincethe production and delivery
Of building materials for other than
war purposes is now permitted. The
return to pre-war industrial condI-
lions must necessarily be gradual in
order to prevent a shortage Of labor
and material and an unsatisfactory
transportation situation.
Ebert II. Gary, Chairman of the
United State Steel Corporation, and
also Chairman of the Steel Commit
tes of the q. S. War Industries
Board, in recent interview regard
ing after-war industrial prospects in
this country, predicts an era Of unus-
uai prosperity. He urges, however,
the importance Of wisdom and pa
tience in connection with the worlds
economic readjustment. The promi-
nent position of Judge Gary in the
business world affords him an excep-
Honal opportunity to judge accurate
ly as to business prospects and, con-
sequently it is encouraging to note the
fact that, while he fully appreciates
the dangers and difficulties necessaE-'
iIy incident to the readjustment per
Sod upon which we are just entering,
no states that theb 'usiness future OF
this country is brighter now than ever
before. Among the reasons assigned
by Judge Gary for his optimism are
the following:
The United States is the richest OF
all ,connt-ies. possessing about one
Shird Of the worlds wealth. It's nat
sral resources are immense and are
susceptible to increasing develop
ment America is now creditor ma
Hon with large interest income and
is more virile. more progressive, more
successful. wiser and better than ever
before. There will be a disposition on
the part Of those in authority to as
sfs+ rather than to attack business et-
forts. Legislation and administra-
ton will be founded on ascertalned
conditions, deficiencies and require
rnents. Both capital and labor will
be protected and rewarded. The vel
fare of employees will be properly pro-
-vided for. Employers and employees
will cooperate with each other ana
with the government Cooperation
will Also be practiced in dealings be-
tween producers, manufacturers, dis
trTbutors and consumers.

Advice to the Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

have no business to marry. You re-
gard marriage as sort Of joke,
thing to be assumed and put off as
the mind changes like a garment
that has gone out Of style. Do you
not realize that having married
your husband, you owe him duty,
whether you are crazy about him
or not? No wonder he has ceased
to love you. If you would do what
you should and make it the object
of your every thought and act to be
worthy Of his love and to get it back
again, you could easily win him. AS
for the baby, there are plenty Of peo-
pie who would want her even though
her own mother lacks the soul to ap-
preciate this greatest gift of God.
If neither you or the father want her
send me your name and I will find
a mother for her. However, I hope
you will come to your senses and re-
gret this letter, which was evidently
written in a At Of anger, and take up
your duty to your husband and child
as a true woman should. If you are
determined to leave your husband,
tell lawyer your troubles and he
will help you get out Of them.

Judge Owls Ghost Story.

BACK when DIZZY DClSluiii saiu
L the school house was haunted
But in a moment her good sens
came to the rescue.
Haunted houses are just buga
boos," she declared. Il don't be
lieve in ghosts"
Billy Belgium gave her sly winl
and nodded his head slightly to
ward the Bird. She caught hi!
meaning at once. He was only try
ing to fool the Birds, because o
the joke they had played on him il
bringing him back to the school
Just when he was rejoicing be-
cause he was going to have two
days freedom from books ane
study.
Even if you don't believe If
ghosts, you'll have to admit thai
queer things happen in lots o.
houses that folks say are haunted
The children going to this schoo
say they have been hearing some
very strange noises here" said
Billy Belgium, silencing any fur
Their argument on Peggy's part with
another wink.
"Whoo! Whool I don't believe ii
ghosts either" hooted Judge Owl
SI've been around lot at night and
I've never met one. But silly per.
sons sometimes take me for one and
| give them awful cares," Judge
Owl chuckled.
II remember one boy who was
going to brighten folks going home
from a party. So he got a white
sheet and ran on ahead OF them
hiding himself in the shrubbery OF
an old, tumble down, vacant house
When the folks came along ne
climbed on a stump so that he
looked about 10 feet tall and waved
his arms as though he were flying
'ouow. Ouow!i he groaned, I'm a
ghostl I'm a ghost
"My, how those folks did yell and
shriek!" laughed Judge Owl, while
Billy Belgium giggled out loud.
"They ran down the road lickety-
split, with one big fat man running
the fastest of all until he stumbled
over a stone and pitched on his
stomach. Then he was so scared
that he didn't wait to get up, but
went right on rolling down the
hill"
Billy Belgium broke right out
laughing and all the Birds joined
in.
"But that was only the beginning
of the real fun" snickered Judge
Owl. II was in the vacant house
hunting for mice when the yells
disturbed me. I looked out and
there was the boy-ghost just hol-
lering with laughter. | put on as
deep a voice as l could and said,
'Whoo! Whoop
"The boy let out yell, louder
than any of the others. and down,
kerplump, he went, tumbling off that
stump. He got tangled up in his
sheet and rolled over on the ground
trying to get up. I flew to a tree
right over his head and said 'Whoo!
WhooP at him once more.
yelling and yelling, he scrambled
up and flew down the hill. The 9TH
ers heard him yelling and saw him
coming, the sheet tapping about
like wings. They thought the ghost
was going to get them sure, and
they fed madly. All except the fat
man. He rolled into ditch and got
stuck there. Before he could get
out the boy-ghost fell over him.
My, what a wild mix-up there was
thenl The fat man was screaming
murder the boy was yelling
ghosts and I was hooting WHO'D!
Whoop
Finally the fat man discovered
that the boy wasn't ghost after all,
but was lust pretending to be one.

This attractive and charming
Omaha girl is now ministering to
the sick in the great Red Cross hos
pital at Vladivostok. Her work,
just now, is largely with the con-

in the care of the most serious
cases. DR.. Tensler, who is the head
of this great hospital, is a cousin OF

her work and will remain for six
