Of the worlds greatest funmakers,
will appear on the third night of the
Chautauqua in a "Joy Night" su-
preme. Mr.. Bingham's appearance
will be looked for. His fun is conta-
gious and none can resist it. For
more than 80 years Mr.. Bingham
has been entertaining the American
people and his name has become al
most a household word.
The Christine Giles Company is a
trio Of skilled musicians presenting
high class selections, both insru-
mental and vocal; piano, violin and
flute being the Instruments used.
Christine Giles-Bingham, violinist
and soprano, is the talented wife of
Ralph Bingham.
Music and drama will be present
ed by the Paramount Entertainers
in a diversified program of real ar
tistic value. On the afternoon Of
the fourth day they will give a COM
plete comedy "Rosalie." This is a
clever farce full Of laughs and
thrills, with an interesting plot and
a story well told.
Defective Harry J. Loose, an ac-
tive member fthe Chicago Police
Department and on furlough only
long enough to cover the Chautau-
qua circuit, will discuss "Crime and
It's Prevention" on the third after
nooon. Mr.. Loose has made hun
dreds OF arrests and successful pro-
secuNons in the Municipal, State,
and Federal courts and is in a posi-

JUNGLE LAW.

Contributed by ROBERT HER
RICK to the National Security
Leagues campaign of Patriotism
Through Education.)
Returning from Europe, cursed with
war, l was more convinced than of
anything else in life that what is be-
ing slowly settled in that grim trench
land over there DOES mean some
thing to us-mOre. oh, so much more,
than money or legal rights or SYM
pathy for bleeding humanity. Not
that l am especially apprehensive Of a
raid on these United States, the crum-
bling of our skyscrapers, with the ex-
action of colossal indemnities. That,
too. of course, might happen II Ger
man arms were triumphant, If the
pax Germanica were imposed upon a
beaten world.
But that is not to me the worst. To
me the German peril does not lie so
much in her big guns, her submarines,
her "Prussianized war machine" 1t
lies in herself, in her image of the
world. If Germany could win even a
partial victory under her monstrous
creed of applied materialism, illuminat-
ed as 1t has been by every sort Of Gym
zeal crime, with its reasoned defiance
Of contract. its principle Of 'indispensa-
BILE seventies" its military logic, ETC.,
THAT must become the moral law Of
all the world-the jungle law! In or
der to survive we must all accept this
law Of the Jungle. And of all the
PROSTATE peoples Of the world forced
to accept the victOr's new version of
the ancient commandments proud
America would be the first We can
not resist the fascination of success.
So the German ideal, the German
tyranny over the individual, the Ger
man morality-one rule for you and
me as individuals and another utterly
irresponsible rule when we get togeth-
er as q state-w0uld be initiated by
Us more than the German thorough
ness In civil and military organization.

Why Presidents Opposed toWar Council

to set the embassy rocking with
laughter when he returned to tell what
he had said and what Bryan had said.
! We do not know and can not appre-
ciate what mischief Mr.. Bryan's kind
/ ly credence and altruistic impulses did
/ Dumba incident was merely q flash
! into them. He fixed an idea of the
! United States in foreign minds and
/ foreign governments, now enemies,
acted upon that idea, and we are at
war.
| Party politics gave us Bryan In this
emergency just as 1t has given us the
other men in Mr. Wilson's cabinet.
They We're appointed for considera-
| tons which We're important at Balti-
more, and certainly are not important
now at Washington.
The party system, to which we pa
tiently and even graciously submit In
ordinary times, is not big enough and
could not be elastic enough to give
the country the right men for such
tasks as the present ones, No party
ever could so monopolize the brains
and energy of the nation.
We have the extraordinary spectacle
of non-political America giving up it's
best because the country demands the
best, and of political America adher-
ing stubbornly to system which is
based upon political obligation and
expectations. 1t gave us Bryan when
the efforts of the United States to
shrewdest talent we had. Now 1t
gives us men appointed just as Bryan
was appointed, not with regard to the
to be faced, the work to
be done, and the men available for the
work, but with regard to party affilia-
ton and Importance.
This system keeps the nation from
employing its best ability. The coun-
Try draws on its industries for their
most important men, but politics re-
aims its caste. This system says that
Bismarck. Disraeli, Gladstone, Ca
our or Hamilton were available for
ppointment to the department Of
tate and We're republicans, Fingy
'onners could have the place because
e was a democrat
The president would have an eff
lent government under him IL he
onld accept instead OF oppose the
fperior war council legislation.

And there is another still more
compelling reason upon which perhaps
we may venture to lean.
individuaIism Destroyed.
This is an age of intense individu-
ality. In this age people are strug-
Cling for individual expression. Every
man and every woman is aware of the
Cod given right to be heard.
War denies individuality to men. II
ships them in punches and kills them
in bundles and buries them in open
bitches. War is out of tune with the
times.
This Is one of the strongest reasons
why we must fight on at any cost until
Germany is beaten.
The giving of world power to Ger
many means the submersion OF the
individual. It means crushing every
human soul into a mold.
| This is a queer old world Every.
thing goes round in circles. When yot
are highest you are most in danger o.
4
falling. When you are richest yot
are poorest. When you are very ole
| you become an infant again.
Germany has been the victim
scourged by this law of the circle
this law of the swinging pendulum
this law of compensation or whatever
you wish to call it.
| In devoting herself to the glorifica'
ition of war she has destroyed Its
glories. In seeking TO transform 9
nation into an army she has made
armies forever distasteful. In seeking
to make warfare the steady diet o.
mankind she has given the world
severe case of martial Indigestion.
| But of this situation may we no.
hope that, when this war is done, the
| war drums will beat no longer, thai
the battle flags will be furled.

GLACIAL. EPocHs.
This Old Earth Has Passed Through
Many HIce Ages"

Many "Ice Ages"
Everyone with intelligent interest in
the history of the world on which he
lives has heard Of "the glacial epoch"
or the ice age. 1t is, however, not
strictly correct to speak Of the "ice
age" or the glacial epoch" for there
have been many Of them 1t is now
known that even this latest or Pleist-
ocene glacial epoch had several i'm
portant subdivisions, and 1t appears
that in the Rocky mountain region
7 the time between the glacial subepochs
was so long as to permit great changes
in the form and height of the noun
tains, due to wearing down by ero-
sion.
More than 50 years ago English
biologists recognized the fact that
certain masses of gravel and breccia
and certain planned and grooved rock
surfaces in rocks of Permian age In
India indicated a glacial epoch vastly
older than that of the North American
ice sheets, but only within the last
| 80 years have biologists learned that
glacial conditions have required at
many different times in the earth's
history. The evidence of this fact
has been found in all continents-in
Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, South
America, and North America. Great
| ice sheets were formed at different
lperiods in the larger divisions of geo.
logic time back to the Proterozoic-
that is, to the age of the Oldest known
sedimentary rocks, a great many mil
lion years ago.
One of the most recent discoveries
OF old glacial deposits is that made by
!, Prof w. w. Atwood, of the United
States geological survey, department
of the interior, near Ridgway, in
southwestern Colorado. Prof. Atwood
there found typical glacial "till," con-
tanning pebbles and boulders showing
we'll preserved scratches and other
markings, lying beneath Tertiary lavas
of the San Juan mountains and rest
ing upon Upper Cretaceous beds. The
conditions of the occurrence show
that these gravels are Of early Eocene
age.
Professor Atwood's report Of this
discovery was issued by the United
States geological survey, department
Of the interior, as part B of profess
sional paper 95, under the title
"Eocene glacial deposits in southwest
ern Colorado" A small stock of the
report is still on hand, and copies
may be had on application to the dir
ector Of the United States geologi-
cal survey.

There can be nothing but conscious
trickery in the effort to prejudice opin-
ion against the superior war counci
with the statement that 1t would SET
up an authority superior or antagonis-
tic to the president.
This is conscious trickery because
the opponents of the superior council
who resort to it know that such is not
the intent and could not be the result
of the legislation.
The intent is to give the president
authority for the use Of the best talent
he can find in the United States and in
the use Of that talent bring American
war activities into working relation,
accord, and harmony, eliminate con-
flict, get decision out of controversy
and action out of hesitancy.
Germany had government organi-
cation built for war and has retained
it, 1t could retain 1t because 1t was
created after the most careful study
Of probabilities and possibilities of
such an emergency as it had to meet
Great Britain had a government not
designed for such emergency and
Great Britain changed its govern
of government not designed for such
emergency and the government of the
United States refuses to modify itself
to meet the apparent needs of the sit
uation.
Mr.. Bryan's decision for Woodrow
Wilson in Baltimore made Mr. Bryan
secretary of state.
Mr.. Wilson acknowledged his obli-
cation to Mr.. Bryan, and the country
knowing that cabinet positions went
by favor, accepted this appointment in
accord with the laws of the Modes,
Then the war--a thing unrelated to
anything Mr.. Bryan had thought or
done at altimore-demanded the
services of the most astute statesman
he United States could command, and
he United States gave the war Mr.. |

ue and goodness in world affairs.
