REDEEM WAR SAVINGS PLEDGES

The State Director of the War
Savings Committee writes us
that if all outstanding pledges
are redeemed South Dakota will
at least be second among all the
states. He also sends a copy of
a telegram from Secretary Nc
Adoo. which is as follows
Roger L. Dennis, State Director,
Sioux Falls, S. D.
| most earnestly urge upon
you that your organization make
every possible effort to the end
that pledges for the purchase of
War Savings Stamps be fulfilled
before the close of the year. The
governments monetary require
ments were never greater nor
more pressing than they are to-
day. Expenditures for Noyem-
Der were greater than in any
similar period. These expendi-
lures growing out of the war
must be met by borrowing from
the people, and their magnificent
response heretofore to the gov
ernment's requirements makes
me confident that they will not
fail to continue their support to
the end that all payments result
ing from the war necessities may
be promptly met. Much remains
to be done. Our brave troops
must be maintained and paid un-
til their work is fully accomplish
ed and they are returned to their
homes. This is not time to
relax our efforts, and the Treas
ury Department is making plans
for larger and even more import
ant work during the coming year.
Please make every effort to bring
this statement before the people
in your district and to urge upon

to hold their War Sa in 6

pledges, and additional purchases
as their means permit.

Washington, May 10. - Especial
Telegram Robert Manley, commits
sioner Of the Omaha Chamber Of
Commerce, and John Gamble, who
arrived in Washington Thursday
morning, put in a busy day making
the rounds of the departments to as
certain for themselves just what the
situation is as to Fort Crook and Fort
Omaha, and, incidentally. the quarter
master depot at Omaha. Senator
Hitchcock accompanied the repre-
sentatives of the Omaha chamber in
their calls on General March, chief
of staff, and General William Ken
nedy, chief of aviation.
With General Marsh the question
of the future of Fort Crook was dis
cussed. The Omaha representatives
were told that General Marsh was at
one time stationed at Fort Crook and
had great fondness for Omaha. The
chief of staff said there had been no
plan formulated as to Fort Crooks
future activities, but he assured his
callers that it would have every con-
sideration from General Kennedy.
Balloon School Permanent.
The Omaha men learned that the
balloon school at Fort Omaha was
permanent institution and that it
would be developed as rapidly as con-
ditions would permit and that it would
be kept to its capacity. General
Kennedy recently inspected Omaha
and speaks in high terms of the school
and its location.
While on their rounds the Oma-
hans met members of the French
high commission, who spent several
days in Omaha last year, and they
recalled their visit to the Gate City
with much enthusiasm.

Hstrafe. Made Prize OF War.

The British have taken "strafe." In
an announcement from the Oxford Uni
versity Press the fact Is officially made
known. The captured word has been
included, not to say interned, In the
latest volume. Volume TX, of the Oxford
dictionary. And as a trophy Of war it
has been treated after a characters
tically British fashion. Its fiat Teu-
ton "a" has been changed to the long
English "a" as of "safe," and from
two syllables 1t is reduced to one, SO
that it may rhyme with "chafe."
Nor does the process Of eliminating
Germany in this verbal instance stop
on the mere point of pronunciation.
To the compilers Of the Oxford lexi-
con it is "v. slang" So in captivity
this word Of portent originally fierce
loses not only in quantity but in quail
ity. To quote the London Times, as
cited by the dictionary makers, "strafe
IS becoming a comic English word"

SEA SCOUTS TO BE FORMED

The sea scout branch of the Boy
Scouts Of America has been placed un-
der the direction of James A. Wilder.
The lure of the sea is as strong to
the boy as the lure of the wilds. For
the first time he is to have a chance
to smell the tar and oakum and feel
the swaying deck beneath his feet,
even though he may live in a sandy
desert.
The chief sea scout has introduced
a new note into scouting-the idea OF
giving every scout a definite Job with
definite duties. Under his system there
Is no general rush for the axe and neg
lect of the shovel. Every scout does
his part of the work and together they
do it all-whether it Is launching a
boat or cooking a meal.
AS in the navy, every scout in the
boat will have a speciality and a rating
based on that speciality. He will have
certain gear in his charge and will re-
ceive special instruction in the ham
ding and the care of the same.
1t is not absolutely necessary that
there shall be water In or near q town
where the sea scouts are to be organ
lied, though not to have at least a
horse-pond will be a handicap. Jour
neys to n~avigable water must then be
undertaken or crew and skipper will
stick at the boat grade, and interesting
but dry-land class of work and games.
It will be permissible to change a
room into a "ship." In this case the
stairways will become "gangwaYs," the
windows ports" and "~skylights," and
everything will be kept ~shipshape.
The United States navy department
has been interested in sea scouting for
a number of years. and some troops Of
sea scouts have had the use of navy
equipment, including boats. Instruc-
ton has been given In some cases by
instructors from navy yards and navy
vessels.

use of the divine service. Thus we per-
ceive how the immortal Johann Scbas-
tian Bach summoned the powers of his
unerring taste and composed music
that fills the whole modern world with
astonishment ut the marvellous gifts
of his invention. Thus we listen with
rapt attention to the symphonies of
Beethoven, this remarkable artist Of
loftiest ideas, who glorified his Maker
by drawing inspiration from nature.
The heavens arc telling the glory Of
God! When in bondage Of misery and
sorrow by the destruction Of his hear
ing he sought refuge in the realms of
the ideal, the spiritual. He erected a
monument to himself "more lasting
than iron" Franz Schubert in his
songs offers glmpses into celestial
spheres. wherein he saw beauty, joys
of life and Of love. sorrow and sadness.
His Tyre sounded melodies full Of ex-
preston and appeal to human hearts.
What wealth of feelings Chopin, the
Incompatible king of the piano key
board, displayed in his unique, match
less compositions! Whether he sings
an ingenious, charming cradle song or
whether he reaches into depths of mel
ancholic moods in nocturncs and prel
udes, or whether he pours forth strains
of bold and triumphant character,
like in his polonaises, the results on
audiences the world over prove the
indsputable existence Of upreme in
spiraton. And what is to be said of
Wagner. the most conspicuous and ver-
satile poet-musician of modern times?
His music dramas tell the story of
fabulous imagination. The impulses
OF this mans genius originate from
life. He reaches into the invisible
depth of his inner being; shapes and
forms become lifelike. The result is
the birth of an art work that rises like
causes the impulses to feel. to think,
to assume features, and thus the world
witnessed the creation of "The Ring
Of the Nbelungen' or of Christian and
Isolde" which may be termed the mu-
sical setting Of the love story of Ro-
meo and Juliet.
But not alone in monumental works
Of art and literature do we notice the
invisible forces of the highest power
but we also behold their sway in in
cidents that bear a dirnct influence
upon the feelings of human beings.
Look into the history of our own coun-
try. Who remains unmoved when we

Sir--No one could quarrel with my sunny

and ] am not tenacious Ia wanting 10 press
my idea oycrmuch I'm regard 20 Faust. An
explanation may be allowed, however. "The
final redemption Of Germany s. in process
only now: she hasn't reached that turning
point at which the young colored spendthrift
arrived, when. after pawning all but his
shirt and trousers and. in contemplation Of
pawning tho former, "whcn he cursed 20

A. present Germany i8 pawning only her
