Military Observers and Others

As what is going in the theater of war. that is, in the fiftyfive mile front from Noyon to Arras any sensible man who has been following dispatches has about clear notion military observers at distance from the theater unless the latter are in possession of information which has for reason or another been withheld from the multitude. The layman is also as competent to predict what is go- ing to happen the removed military observer
 The events of the past week have demonstrated, among other things that military observers had not previously been inspred that they could not see any farther obaque substance than the rest of us that in fact if they telling the truth in their daily screeds they rather binder than the laty The laity knew it did not know. The military observers did not know that they did not know So there we had that much advantage them.
 The British, French and German high commands alone each knows what it wants to do and has reasonably clear mind to whether it can do it. The allied high command side and the German high command on the other each may make a req sonable guess to what the other can do.
 Thus information regarding the great battle reli- able or reasonable, is confined within limited area along the battle front. What Paris Berlin, Amster- dam, London and Washington tell to future movements and the outlook, may with profit and peace of mind be disregarded. It is told either be- cause observers longer restrain themselves or merely for popular consumption All know and all the observers know is that a place has been taken here another retaken there; here the enemy has succeeded there he has been repulsed We only guess at the significance of these various incidents and the military observers do than that
 One may reasonably conjecture concerning part of the German objective That seemed apparent at the beginning the capture of Amens and the chan mel ports In the von Kluck campaign of 1914 Paris was the heart of France. The Germans believed through we think they mistaken. that the war would end with the fall of Paris. The channel ports then seemed less important. A very low estimate was placed upon military strength of Great Britain. Now the situation is quite different. The channel ports have became Of the greatest importance With Amiens in the hands of the enemy communication be- tween every port west of Deppe and central France would be cut off British endorsements and sup plies the below Arras would have to be around by Bordeaux the Mediterranean.
 It is not to be expected that Amiens will be cap tured immediately that it will be determined that it cannot captured. We in for long bat tie and not share the belief that however it may turn, it will be a decisive battle We expressed this same belief before the offensive begun that it could be only phase but terrible phase of the war.
 Evidently the British government does not believe that all is going to be lost in this battle; that there will be time enough after that for ica if it acts promptly, with and munitions yet on this side of Atlantic, to affect the final decision

An Unhappy Comparison
decision.

The address last Tuesday of Chairman Hurley of the shipping board setting forth excuses for the boards past failures, prophecies of it's future cesses and rather vague facts to what it is pshng and has recently accomplished, has already come in for good deal criticism. The voiced ob- jections it that it rather than reveals; that it's system percentages" curves" tends misead already gropng public
 We thsok there is much of it. The and the prophecies should have been omitted. The is nowhere held responsible for them. As to the future we shall know all about that when it to be the present. We shall then know much more about it than Chairman Hurley any other living man knows now. We have all dwelt too much in the future ever since we went to We have been too much absorbed with the great things we were going to do to do well the smaller and the greater things at hand.
 Mir Hurley unnecessarily introduces under the head of this unhappy comparison:
 "It took Henry Ford, with all his genius for or ganization and standardization, Is years in which to develop his production. It has required 20 years for the United States Steel Corporation to develop it's activities to the point they repre- sent an organization one-half large as has been undertaken by the Emergency Fleet Corporation"
 In the first place we think it was rather fresh on the part of Mr. Hurley compare for an instant The mediocre men who by the grace of politics have had to do with the shipping board with such men as Mir Ford and the geniuses who succeeded another in the miracle of the Steel Corporation
 It is true that it took Mr. Ford sixteen years to develop his present immense production But he had

TO ONE WHO COMES NOW AND THEN

When you come in, it seems a brighter fire Craclles upon the hearth invitingy; The household routine, which wont to tire, Grows full of novelty. You sit upon home upholstered chair And talk of matters wonderful and strange, Of books and travel. customs old which dare The gods of time and change Til we with inner word our care refute
 Laughing that this bosoms yet assails, While there maidens dancing to flute In Andelusian vaes
 And secret meanings to our hearts disclose As when the winds of June the mid-bush shake We see the hidden And when the shadows muster, and each tree moment flutters, full of shutting wings You take the fiddle and mysteriously
 Wake wonders the strings And in my garden gray with misty flowers Low echoes fainter than beetles horn Fill all corners with it, like sweet showers Of bells in the owls morn wp
 Come often, friend. With welcome and surprise Come when you like and from whatever skies Above you smile Or frown.
 From the March Century.

ARIZONA VIEWS
 AT OHIO CAMP

The Phoenix Chamber of Commerce has contributed 70 lantern slides to Captain w. C. Gates of the Medical Reserve corps at the base hospital, Camp Sherman, Ohio.
 Captain Gates wrote to the secre- tary of agriculture and the letter was referred to the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce. He writes as follows: For many years my hobby has been See America First" Every vacation Ihave spent in the west and conducted many parties through the west. 1 have accumulated quite a few lantern slides and have three lectures which I give Deep Copper Mining in Michigan" Yellowstone Park" and Colorado, the Playground of America" When entered the army last fall I brought these slides with me and have been using them all winter.
 This camp was built for 40,000 men. We have so far trained about 100000. There are ten Y. M. C.. A. buildings here besides many others which they use from time to time. They are do- ing wonderful work Many of their men work without pay. They have l library, writing rooms with free sta tionery, movie machine, stage, in fact a regular club for the boys in each l
 After my days work is done in the l hospital l have spent from three to 1 four evenings a week with my slides and lectures, entertaining the boys and trying to impress upon them, that no matter what they may see in the old country, we have just as good or better and much more of it. right here at | home. America First. have had large | and enthusiastic audiences.
 T am now looking for material for lecture on Our Great Vest The secretary of agriculture of Colorado | gave me some fine slides for my talk
 on Colorado. Could you furnish me with anything on your state for this work. Most of these boys have never seen mountain or any of our western
 country and they are crazy over this | stuff. Any colored slides of general interest on any subject pertaining to the scenery or industry of your state will be most acceptable. Any views you may be able to send will be seen by thousands of eastern men and will have great influence for good. Every | thing is free and I pay my own ex- | penses."

Two Princes of Wales

With the crippled kaiser and the young Prince of Wales back at the front, that is, in the Pickwckan sense at the front to direct things should soon have a definite conclusion of this argument which has been going on heatedy in Picardy. The news story that the prince has returned the front recalls the fact that he is not the first Prince of Wales to go to France a war-lke mission There other whose presence had much more of influence the then in progress than the present prince will likely have
 The young prince is doubtless well back of the lines. The other prince, Edward, the Black Prince, in the thick of the fighting At Crecy not very far the present fight of Bohemia which has since been the crest of the Prince of Wales the three ostrich feathers, and the motto "Ich Dien' There has been some talk of late of changing this motto which is German meaning q serve' but we believe that bitter antpathy has become to all things German the British hesitate to disturb an institution of nearly 500 years standing. This sentence is older than the Hohenzollerns older than Prussian militarism and is part of either.
 It is perhaps, well enough to let the crest and motto alone for the time when there is much more to be done before democracy shall become triumphant over autocracy when that has been com petely accomplished the crest, the motto and all insignia of royalty will have vanished themselves

We have no sympathy with the l. w. W, es- pecially with who carries around a photo- graph of w. D. Haywood and who is engaged in soliciting funds for his relief. Whatever happens to him he deserves but do not think that tar and feathers applied to him has been put to the best use in these d;Is of conservation. It is also really more disfiguring to the good of the state. It is harder to remove this mixture from the reputation of the state than from the cutcle of the man who have been adorned with it.

DAYLIGHT SAVING

When congress finally determined to go ahead with the project of saving daylight, it went strong Clocks will be an hour during seven months of the year, from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October
 The bill passed provides that all clocks shall be set ahead one hour at a m. the morning of the final Sunday of this month, but those who not wish to get up at o'clock find it convenient to make the correction Saturday evening
 The dates of correction this year happen to be March 31 and October 27
 This time system might better be called a daylight using plan than daylight saving. There is no actual saving of daylight, for the same amount comes and goes each day, without regard for clocks congressman. What done is to take an hour from early morning daylight and add evening day light. The effect is exactly the same as if every body went to work an hour earlier by clock, and stopped an hour earlier They will go hour earlier by the sun, but at the hour by the clock
 An indication of the actual effect of the measure may be obtained from the time which the sun rises and sets.
 On March 31, if the clocks were not set ahead the sun would rise in Des Moines 59 a. m Under the new system, it will rise at 6:59 a. That the exact minute which the sun rises on Febru- ary 22
 The sun sets at 6:S6 D. m. March S1. The day light saving law will make its setting :36 D. m May 30 is the day upon which the ordinarily sets at 7:96 p. May 30 is the day upon which the ordinarily sets 1886 D. m.
 On October 26 the last day of the longer evening schedule the would rise 6:36 if clocks had not been set ahead The rising time of course will be 736 and the twenty y-seventh it will rise hour earlier As the days shorten, the rising time of the sun will again grow later, and the tWenty-siXth of December it will again rise at 7:36 a. m
 The normal setting time of the sun on October 26 is 5:1S D. m. but the law makes it G. IS o'clock That is the time the sets September 1S under the old schedule.
 An interesting effect is produced on June 21 the longest day of the year. If changes were made in the clocks, the would rise at Al m and set at 7:47 D. m. The revised schedule makes it rise at B. B. and set at AT D. m. There is plenty of time for evening work in the garden on that day, but it will be possible to observe the Iowa bedtime of o'clock without retiring before the does. The normally rises at 5:41 September g. but the evening hours establishes a record
 The only objection which will be registered to the daylight saying plan is with respect to the month October. It seems of doubtful utility to make the rise in October as late it does in December, when of the principal complaints from human beings suffer is the absence of morning daylight In general however the new system will prove valuable and welcome.-The Des Moines Register Tribune.

An Inquiry

To the Editor:
 If I remember correctly, no man who has been arrested for so-called statutory offense" and convicted, has. received anything more than a sus- pended sentence. for a long time, at least. I wonder whether our courts really consider this the best way to make this valley safe for girls? wonder just what explanation the judges would offer, in thus doing what amounts to encourag cement to evilly- inclined men? What is tho idea of our courts here? Several of us would welcome a fair eX- planation.

of moisture in the residual matter of

ance of water, eat raw fruits and take
lots of outdoor exercise, you may be
able eventually to overcome it entire
ly. In the meantime use the most
mild and gentle laxatives. Strong
and harsh cathartics take too much
water out of the system and make a
bad matter worse. Chamberlain 5
