FLIGHT Will Not Save Him

Six months ago, the most monumental egotist
the world has ever produced, fairly bloated with
supercious arrogance that did not balk at as
sociating himself with Deity.
Today, skulking like whipped cur, his armies
beaten his throne lost and his country in the throes
of red revolution.
Wilhelm, the second of his name and the last OF
his house, has sneaked across the frontier, not to
Switzerland but to Holland. the nearest neutral,
where he doubtless hopes for sanctuary.
1t will be in VAN. Humanity and civilization
cry out for his punishment. Let Holland hold him
securely but the Allied governments we hope
the United States will join-will demand his sur
render to justice and the demand will not have to be
enforced. Not in gnominous flight will the arch
instigator of the world misery and archinspirer OF
war horror escape the doom hanging over him.

100000 a Year From Neck Up

Michael Bowling, president of the State Bank
of Olivia, Minnesota started out his life career
minus both legs, his left and the fingers of his
right hand. His accident was the result OF fierce
Minnesota Blizzard in which he happened to be
caught, thirty-fve years ago. When he was physi-
cally able to get around-it took much longer in
those days than it does now-Dowling decided that
he had to have an education. Now, he drives his
car rides horseback, aid enjoys life with the enhu-
siasm of a boy. He has fine inspiring philosophy.

and whimsical manner of stating it. When he was
asked how much he thought physical disability in
terfered with mans earning capacity his answer
was characteristic: From his neck down man is
worth about $3.50 day; from his neck up he may
be worth 800, 600 year."-Seected
