The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-07-22

explained the strange lapse from
weather regularity as due directly
to those solar spots center of vast
disturbance in the suns luminous
atmosphere, diminishing its radiat-
ing power and thus limiting the
quantity of heat sent to our earth
and the other planets. A pronounced
disturbance OF that sort is likely to
persist for about three years.
Are we in for such another ex-
perience? There is no definite cause
for alarm thus far but various
weather reports lately have been
somewhat disquieting. The tempera-
ture throughout most of the United
States in the last few weeks has
been considerably lower than usual
Prolonged cold rains, injuring the
crops, are reported from Germany.
Brazil is said to have had its coffee
plants frozen and other vital crops
badly injured.
These may be weather accidents,
transient phases of the season with
no particular meaning. And then
again, they may not. Certainly we
hope that now, of all times, we are
not entering on a three, years frigid
spell.

LEGITIMATE HATRED

p. w. Goebel. chairman OF the
Kansas War Savings Campaign
thinks he has good reason for hating
Germany-or at least. hating the
men and interests that presume to
speak for Germany. He himself is
German-born, loving his race and
taking pride in its best achieve
ments. And as quoted by the Kan
sas City Star, he says:
IL hate the German government
with a consuming hatred, because
she has made the people of my blood
and kindred outcasts OF the world
the lshmaelites OF civilization"
That is. indeed. ample cause for
hatred. OF might justify such a
hymn OF hate as Germany herself
has not produced. 1t portrays the
feeling which little by little grows
upon intelligent and sensitive Ger
mans the world over. They have as
great justification for bitterness as
the races that Germany has so
grievously wronged-greater per
haps, because men and women OF
those races may hold up their hears
in honor and pride while one OF
German blood is driven to deny his
Fatherland or hang his head in hu-
initiation.
1t may be. after all. that Ger
many's greatest crime has been
committed against Germans.

WAR.
BY Eleanor Blair Green of The

Somehow, when l think of war
don't think ABOUT what Senator

And words of four syllables
And parades and things.
think about that ditch from
Switzerland to the North Sea
And clouds OF dust
And smoke
And mud
And how the boys stood knee
deep in ice water
Till their feet were frozen
And shells bursting
And boy screaming, "Mother-
Mother -
And how, once in 4 dressing sta
ton there were no compresscs
Because the people at home said I:
This isn't our war
And SO they used newspapers--
They had to
And the man died.
And | thiDk about 4 flag
And wish to God were a man
To take it over the top
And about the surgeon who had
no anaesthetic.
And he had to perform major op-
Grafton
On a kitchen table in Flanders
And the soldier said: lust give me
a cigaret"-
And the operation went on.
And | think about little children
killed
And people tied in bundles
Like kindling
And moved down BY machine guns.
And | think
Oh, God. why can't we hurry up
And &c; into the game with bo,h
feet
Instead of just our right arm"
As one official said,
And help France like she helped US

DON'T WEAR PLATINUM

The problem, to wear or not tO
wear platium jewelry, is one that
troubles most of us very little. New
ertheless it is startling learn, in
he face OF the great need for plat
mum in the manufacture of explo-
sives, airplanes, electrical machin-
cry, etc, that over half of the sup
ply of latinum has come to be used
in jewelry. 1t is combined with gold
or used alone in cigaret cases, mesh
bags, wedding rings and jewelry of
every kind.
The scarcity of platinum is seri-
Gus. Formerly, it is said, we OBJ
tanned 95 per cent of our platinum
from Russia. Germany now has
practically the whole Russia output
in her hands. The price has ad-
vanced from $50 to $l05 an ounce.
Last March steps were taken to
commander commercial supplies of
platinum. But that does not seem to
be enough. 1t may yet become nee
essary TO turn over to the govern
ment all the platinum now in pri-
vate possession.
Many people are pledging them
selves not to purchase and not to
accept as gifts any articles contain
ing this metal. 1t is very small
thing to do. People can worry along
very well without platinum jewelry
and those who continue to wear it
ought to feel like the man mention
ed in recent issue of the Outlook.
He spoke of gold and platinum
watch chain that was prized gift. I
hata to go on wearing this chain.

SUN SPOTS

An astronomical authority re-
marks that the suns face is badly
spotted just now. He is probably
right about it-anybody can find
out for himself by taking 4 good
look at the sun through a telescope,
with piece of smoked glass to pro-
tect the eve. There is nothing un-
usual about the general situation.
Old Sol is subject to periodic erup-
tions on his physiognomy. The pres
ent outbreak, however, is interest
ing because it is said to cover a
larger area than usual. and because
it may have 4 definite relation TO
the weather in a season when the
weather IS nightly important.
There was just such a spotted
ness on Soils face, il appears. in
the meteorogically famous year OF
1916. That vas the summerless
year. when the crops nearly all froze
and ice kept forming in July and
August through the temperate zone.
The years preceding and following
were nearly as bad. Authorities have

PEDDLING THE TIME.
Woman at Maidenhead, England,
Tells Correct Time to Fifty Gus
toners at $50 Each, Annually

Los Angeles Times; Probably
no other hill in the world has had
so strangely varied history or
played so important part in the
affairs of men as that at Green
witch in England. The granite line
across the footpath on its summit
is the meridian from which the
longitude on every British map and
chart is calculated. Al England sets
it's time by the mean solar clock.
There is a large galvano-magnetic
clock fixed on the outside wall OF
the observatory and divided into
twenty-four hours. There are many
who believed that this clock kept
going bv the sun. They do not know
that the fixed stars are the real
timekeepers from which the Britons
check their daily progress.
To this galvano- magnetic clock
in the wall comes every Monday
a woman, Miss Belleville of Maiden
head. who makes $500 year out
of the queerest occupation in the
world. She sells the time to Lon
don watchmakers. Many years ago
the then astronomer royal suggest
ed TO her father that If he took the
corrected time of a certified crono-
meter every week he coudl no doubt
find numerous clients. So Mr.: Belle
Vile bought a watch made for the
Duke of Essex and then worked up
a business with it. When he died
his widow sold the time until she
reached the age of eighty-one, and
then she handed over the business
to her daughter. When Miss Belle
Vile visits Greenwich at the begin
ming of every week her chronometer
is corrected and she is given an OF
fetal certificate. From that her tif-
ty customers correct their watches
and clocks.

THE south's cotton and corn can

sistant to the secretary OF agricui-
ture. The situation is the most
serious in the agricultural hisory OF
his section. The south has not only
planted more cotton than in normal
wears, but southern farmers nave
made heroic efforts to help meet
the food needs of the allied nations
But unless the cotton and corn IS
to rot in the fields, the towns and
cities must step forward with work

Lazy Day.

Oh, Lazy Day, where have you
gone?
We miss you now and then
Nights curtain soft seems scarcely
drawn
Till daylight glows again.
Unheeded sounds the birds low
song.
Unfelt the breeze drifts by
The distant bugle's note is strong,
And hearts are beating high
Some time when sorrowing is re-
lieved,
And Might by Right is led.
Some time when purpose well
achieved
O'erwhelms the ills we dread,
Wen dream again where perfumes
dwell,
And doze the hours away,
All unresistful of the spell
You weave, oh, Lazy Day!

People Are Patriotic.

The federal farm help specialists
from the southern states, who have
met here to devise ways OF assur-
ing sufficient labor for the southern
harvest, reported the big crops
growing in their territories and then
told of measures being taken to as
sure help. All emphasized a ready
and patriotic spirit of cooperation
they have met among the people
Of the cities and tawns.
They told of farmers working iii
the fields from dawn until dark !;
of women who have chopped and
plowed; of general approval OF
state laws prohibiting idleness; OF
the growth of the movement to sub

A GERMAN WHO WILL BE
MISSED.
BY Charles ]. Rosebault of The
Vigilantes.

The country has lost a valuable
patriot. His name was Carl Ball
veg and he lived at Emporia, Kan.
AS his name suggests, he was a
German German by birth; bu,
when he became a citizen OF the
United States he made no reserva-
tion in his oath of allegiance. He
did not subscribe to the Prussian
law of dual nationalities. This is
what he had to say in a card that
he sent to his acquaintance before
he died:
Il speak from the viewpoint OF
the foreign born. |, and millions
OF othSs like me, came to this
country alone, without friends. We
sponged on all America had, her
free lands, her free schools, and
above all. her spirit OF open heart
ed comradeship. She owed US moth
ing. but she gave us all. We swore
allegiance to her flag. her constitu-
ton and her laws. We would be
recreants. ingrates, pcrjurers and
ours If, in the hour of her need, We
counseled with hSr enemies and
were disloyal to her cause
Ballweg will be missed. He was
an example and an inspiration. We
can i'll afford to lose that type OF
German.
