.LIRERTY WHEAT.

We're rather OVERRIDING the good
word Liberty" in war Technology.
But if any material application of the
term is proper. we may surely use it
for the new wheat announced by
Luther Burbank.
This wizard has evolved Il wheat
plant of such large grain and full
head that II will produce, he says, an
average of 40 bushels to the acre 1t
seems likely that the 40-bushel pro-
duction refers to California rather
than the country at large But max
ing due allowance for that States eX-
ceptional fertility. il seems possible
that the new what, if adopted univers-
ally, and given proper care. might
double the wheat production of the
United States.
Such a contamination, if it could
come now, would be about as big q
blessing as anybody could well
imagine. Ii will take time. But the
world will always need food, es-
pecially wheat. and there is no greater
benefactor than he who provides a
new or more bountiful means of sup
ply. Plentiful food is the beginning
of liberty. Burbank has won a great
victory.

EVER STAMP WHITE H0RSES7
Peculiar Childish Idea Which May
Bring Back Old Days to Some
of the Readers.

The car was long time coming,
and a very small, dirty and joyous girl
on one roller skate confded to an IN
terested bystander that there were
''two white horses coming"
'TIl stamp 'em both" she added, ana
proceeded to lick her thumb and jam
1T into q soiled pink palm. Twice over
tt had to be done, with eyes fixed upon
the approaching team.
"Why stamp themT" inquired the
stranger.
"Why, don't you know? When 1
stamp a hundred I'll find something.
Found a penny last time"
Just then the newspaper boy arrived
with his sack, and as he took the
money from the wooden bench,
penny rolled toward the gutter. The
unkempt little figure swayed on its
single skate. A frown of disapproval
followed the boys industrious search.
While the pennies were in the bag on
the bench, they were property and to
be respected. But it was plain to any
one with eyes that n lost penny be-
longed to the finder-in the code OF
the little girl.
When 1t was picked up and dropped
into the boys pocket, she turned TO
the sympathetic bystander. Don't you
hate boys with freckles?" she asked.
"Besides, I'd only stamped 1even!
Wait till 1 get 'nuther hundred"

LOOKING FORWARD.

EVERY memory called up by Memo
rial Day is a, memory of Liberty.
Every war we ever fought was a
war of freedom. Every soldier whose
grave we strew with flowers, whether
he died in our Revolutionary War. or
in our Spanish War, or i'm any of the
wars that came between, fought as a
schampion OF American liberty
From the earliest beginnings of
American civilization from the day
when the first pioneer planted his feet
on the soil of Massachusetts or Vir-
ginian. through all the struggling
years until this present moment. our
fighting, our thinking, our national as
pirations, have conferred in this great
ideal of Liberty, and in aspiration to
make il the worlds ideal If we
have ever been lured by the lust of
conquest or dominion. it has been but
for a moment; inevitably we have
come back to our normal viewpoint
But this Memorial Day marks a
great change. Our past struggles
have been almost wholly for our own
freedom In the Spanish War, how
ever, we entered upon a new course,
fighting i'm wholly unseliish spirit for
the freedom of another people To-
day we stand committed unreservedly
TO this policy, on a world scale. fight
ing great altruistic war for the free
dom of all mankind.
Our previous Memorial Days have
been backward looking; this one is
forward looking 1t bespeaks a new
epoch, an epoch of universal Ameri-
canism.
10 will come only, as freedom always
comes, through sacrifice
Already the sacrifice has begun. We
mourn for those who have fallen in
this great crusade, We shall mourn
for many thousands more before we
are through. But even now, in the
beginning, when the end is nowhere
in sight, when we can form no notion
of the length of the struggle or the
cost i'm blood and treasure, we cele-
brate the day with a sort of cheerful
hopeful contentment
For we know what the end will be;
we have absolute faith in victory for
our arms, and victory for our ideals.
We know that the results will be
worth the effort, and the the whole
war-torn world will find compensation
for it's losses hereafter in peace,
prosperity and freedom

Are AXIators Born2

There was time when it was held
that a man must be especially born
Tor aeronautlc duties. Experience has
brought on the fact that the average
young man can make an excellent
aviator. Captain Guynemer Major
Bishop, Captain William Thaw, Cap
tain Ball of the Lafayette escadrille,
and practically all the famous avia-
tors were not men who impressed any
body with being different from other
men.
OF the thousands of allied aviators
there are probably not five hundred
men who had seen more than q few
months of military service before
Joining the air service. Most of them
had never seen any military service.
In planning an organization for the
selection and training of aviators. the
aircraft board and the signal corps Of
the United States have had to prepare
to deal entirely with men who had
never seen military service, as other
countries have done.-Henry Wood

Americanlsms in Britain.

Lord Derby. in advising us not TO
"get ratified" has added another word
t. our war vocabulary, or, at any rate.
given an old word a new meaning. In
this sense "rattled'' is an Americanism.
and we remember reading an article by
w. u. Howells some thirty years ago.
in which he said he was not very cas-
fly ratified. OF course we have used
the word in this country with other
meanings for many centuries; even
Pepys relates on one occasion how he
ratified his wife. but that was more in
the nature of grumhling. while Lord
Derby evidently intends us not to get
alarmed or excited, which is the real
American sense of the word.-London

C LIP NGS Of
CAPITAL COUPONS

The wise man who is looking for a
job never gives his next-door neigh
Dor as reference.
II takes a lot of horse sense to en-
able a man to manage an automobile

A regular woman seldom says what
she thinks when she hits her thumb
with a hammer
Sometimes a man remains at the
foot of the ladder for the purpose of
pulling others down
The country can struggle along
without kings or queens as long as it
has few political bosses.
Generally speaking, when a girl of
fourteen is ambitious to become an
actress it's up to her mother to get
busy with the slipper.

TOBACCO RATIONS.

Tobacco is necessity for soldiers.
That view has been so generally ac-
cepted that organizations like the y.
NJ C. A. which are opposed to tobacco
on principle, have collected and for
warded large quantities to our army
in France. Now it is officially recog-
nized by the government. The War
Department has made large purchases
OF tobacco-so large that there's dan
ger of-a dearth of ''makin's" of Ger
tain popular brands-and promises to
issue it hereafter as part of the regu-
lar army ration.
Each soldier is to receive, every
day. four-tenths of an ounce of smok-
ing or chewing tobacco. At that rate
n pound would last 40 days. The
smoker can have pipe or cigarette to-
bacco. whichever he prefers. If the
latter. he receives along with it 10
cigarette papers II he prefers ready
made cigarettes. he gets only four a
day.
This system is Illuminating as re-
CARDS a soldiers nicotian needs. The
War Department presumably knows
what it's about, and the natural con-
clusion is that 10 cigarettes or their
equivalent are enough for any soldier
not necessarily all he wants, but all
that are good for him.
Other smokers may take a useful
hint from that. II four-tenths of an
ounce of tobacco a day is the limit for

Unless the Inflammation can be re-

acknowledgements on the moon9

Several European observers of the
total lunar eclipse of July As. 1917,
have reported that the brightness of the
lunar disk appeared much greater
around the limb than near the center.
These observations lead NJ. A. Nodon
of Bordeaux to revive a suggestion
that has sometimes been made to ac-
count for the brilliancy of certain lu-
mar craters; viz, that the surface OF
the moon may possess luminosity OF
its own in the nature of phosphores-
cence. In that case, perspective would
increase the apparent luminosity to-
ward the limb.-Scientific American.

TRAGEDY IN BUcHANAN'S LIFE
Recent Revelations Show Why States
man Selected No Mate to Share
His Greatness

President James Buchanan died a
bachelor. The story of the tragedy
that caused him not to marry was
brought out during the debate in the
house OF representatives on motion
to erect a monument to Buchanan IN
Washington. Gen. Isaac r. Sherwood
Of Ohio told the story as he heard IL
from a friend of Buchanan's at the
White House forty years ago.
"In his youth James Buchanan's
heart was won by the charms of the
beautiful Miss Anna c. Coleman, who,
like himself, resided in Lancaster, Pa,
said General Sherwood. They were
soon betrothed and were counted the
handsomest couple in all the country
around. Some time after the engage
ment had been announced Mr.. Buchan-
an was obliged to go out of town on
a business trip. on his return ne
stopped in to see a Mrs. William Jen7
kins, who was entertaining a MISS
Oracle Hubley, daughter of General
Hubley, an officer of the revolutionary
war.
= "a gossiping young woman told MISS
Coleman of Mr.. Buchanan's visit ana
aroused her jealousy. On the spur or
the moment she penned an angry note
and released him from his engagement
"A short time after this incident party
was arranged to go TO Philadelphia 70
attend an opera. Miss Coleman was
Included in the invitation, and on ar
irving at Philadelphia, on plea OF IN
disposition, remained at the hotel On
their return from the opera Miss Coie-
man was found dead. She had kllled
herself. This broke James BuchanaanIJs
heart, and he never married and never
lnuad another Wo1nnn"
