Sky Gazers at Florence
Field Have Gay Time With
Tom J0hns0n's. Cherries

Tom johnson lives on Thirty-third
street at the very pinnacle of the area
of country which overlooks Florence
field, from which seven to nine of the
army balloons daily make flights.
Johnson is the owner of an area OF
land that adjoins the flying field and
consequently his possessions are fa-
vorite haunts for the hundreds of per-
sons who journey out to Fort Omaha
to watch the army balloonists.
Johnson is good sort and he really
enjoys the company and the visits,

The club is working 365 days year
in the interest of the individual motor
ist. The clubs work is your protection
in every phase of motoring.
During the recent flooding rains in
Iowa tourists learned what "detour"
means las nearly every route had a
washed-out section which, necessi-
tated leaving the original route. Par
ties starting on the White Pole at
Davenport had to jog north to the
River-to-River, then back to the White
Pole, back few miles to the Black
Diamond, and so on, clear to Des
Moines. Des Moines to Omaha was

II want to thank the club for
cleaning out the kid gang of bottle
breakers on our street" remarked a
non-member to the secretary last
week. Out North Seventeenth there
was bunch of kids who took delight
in smashing pop and milk bottles on
the paving. The club took the matter
up and put an effectual stop to it.
Grading on the Blue Grass road in
Mills county, Iowa, is finished and the
road again is in good condition. One
of the best Iowa roads is the Pioneer
Trail between Council Bluffs and
Corning. This road is marked with
red Indian head. About two miles
east of the School for the Deaf, Coun-
Gil Bluffs, the Pioneer jogs off to the
northeast, leaving the Blue Grass,
which runs south to Glenwood. This is
splendid weekend trip.
Touring is on in full, cars from
eight different states being parked in
front of the club room one day last
week.
A large touring party from Canada
is to come south to tour the United
States, Nebraska being one of the
states they will visit. The club re-
Gently sent them bunch of maps.
Join the club and cooperate with
1900 motorists for good roads, more
highway signs, better laws, better city
ordinances, needed traffic regulations,
justice in auto theft cases and every
other topic i'll which you, the indi-

been interested, it's time you were

WHAT'S DOING
Auto Travel to West
to Be Heavy This Year.
AT AUTO CLUB
BY S. E. SMYTHE.

Yellowstone park opens to the pub
lie the 2sth of this month and from
present indications the travel to the
mountain Fairgrounds will be heavier
this year, despite the war, than in any
previous year. There are approx
mately l55 miles of good circuit roads
in the Park. How to get there by auto
Lincoln highway to Cheyenne, and
then north over the Yellowstone high
way; OLD. to Greeley and then
north to Cheyenne and over the Vel
lowstone, or north to Sioux City and
west over the George Washington Ma
tional highway through the scenic
bad land of South Dakota. Park reg
ulations this year are greatly modified.
Every convenience is offered the tour
ist.
The club has taken up the matter
of putting stop to the practice OF al
lowing minors to drive automobiles.
There are quite few boys and girls
under 10 who are seen every day at
the wheel of large, heavy cars. In
cases of emergency, where quick
thinking and strength is required there
is sure to be an accident of serious
consequences with heavy car in the
hands of minors. The secretary of the
club recently was told of little
girl driving large car, the pedals
being so far out of her reach that she
had to hang on the edge of the seat to
reach them.
A special low rate of $3.50 is offered
the Omaha motoring public to join
the Omaha Automobile club and help
in the big, public spirited work the Or
ganization is doing. with this rate
we should have at least 1000 men,
bers," remarks President w. B. Cheek.

CURE FOR LITTLE AILMENTS
Real Trouble Can Usually Be Depend
ed On to Make One Forget
the Smaller Ones.

Man and animals alike, it's wonder
full what shock will do to heal our
errors and our weaknesses. The only
thing that ever stopped Uncle Bill in
an argument was dishpan, or some
heavy, blunt instrument clOuted over
his brow, and In his younger days he
was some argufier, as his scars attest.
Here Is the case of the blind man in
San Rafael, Cal, who fell 40 feet off
the roof of his house. and found his
eyeslght restored; Aunt Ellen, who
was bedridden for years, was the first
person to reach safety when the house
caught fire, and her bad hip has been
practically all right ever since; you
remember that crippled negro who
beat even the dogs home when the bear
charged out of the brush.
A lot of US have troubles that are
only In our minds; when we are fed a
little real trouble we forget the smaller
ones. There Is, perhaps, an opening
for sanltarlum that will take Grip
pie or an invalid and throw him off
cliff, or crack him over the head with
q brick or a crowbar-anythlng to wake
him up, make him forget his small
worries, and heal his diseased mind.

ICE VALUE F0RBlDS
NEEDLESS WASTE
Demand For Ice Rises With the
Mercury and Saving Is
Necessary.

Ice is of such assistance In hot
weather in preserving food and admin,
istcring comfort that every reason,
able effort must be made to see that
families and important industries re.
curing it should be supplied with their
legitimate needs this year. County
food administrators are going to as.
certain from time to time that the
amount of stored ice in their commu,
mites are reasonably sufficient for the
demand, and the public can also help
in insuring an adequate amount by
avoiding wasteful habits in using ice.
Common Wastes in Commercial Use.
Commercial users often expose
crushed ice on their counters, use
great cakes as a window advertise
ment, or fail to protect from the air
the ice that is being used behind their
bar or counter.
Ice cream makers sometimes furnish
crushed ice free to those who buy
their ice cream, and haul crushed ice
around in their wagons where ii is
badly protected.
The practice of shaving ice for sa-
looms, restaurants, and soda fountains
should be curtailed The ice broken
up melts fast and is likely to be too
abundantly served by those handling
it. Less ice would be required If 1t
were broken up as needed,
DO not put warm food into a refrig-
orator. Let 1t cool first to the temper
allure of the atmosphere.
See that the trap through which the
meltage passes out at the bottom OF
the ice box is kept in place. This trap
is liable to become lost or broken in
which case constant stream of warm
air will flow into the refrigerator.
DO not open the doors of the resrig-
orator more than Necessary as every
time they are opened the cold air
pours out and the warm air that takes
its place is cooled at the expense OF
ice.

ONLY HUMAN BEINGS CRUEL.
Proud Man the Sole Living Creature
Capable Of Deliberately lnfIicting
Suffering on Others.

A cruel person Is one who eXults In
the pain, mental or bodily, suffered by
another. Cruelty has It's basis in anger
land thus Is related to the combatiye
INSTINCT, though there Is cOld-blood-
ed form of cruelty which may be en-
joyed without any obtrusive feeling of
anger, Henry Campbell writes In the
Lancet, London.
Cruelty, Implying as IL does self
consciousn ess--the ability to realize
the feelings of Others-is essentially a
human attribute. Children who i'm
pale frogs and eviscerate flies cannot
be said to be cruel, for they know not
what they do. Nor are the lower ami
mails cruel, seeing that they are wholly
unconscious of the sufferings of 9TH
ers. Thus the charge of cruelty against
the carnivora is unjust. These animals
generally destroy their victims out
right and In the rare cases &c. e., cat
and mOuse) where they prolong the
suffering they have no knowledge of
the pain they are causing. When,
therefore, we stlgmatize the conduct of
the cruel man as brutal we wrong
the brutes.
The animal which attacks another,
and In so doing causes pain, merely
responds to blind, unthlnking in
stlnct; but man, proud man, who looks
before and after, Is able to realize and
take pleasure In the pain he dellber-
ately, and by subtle means maybe, sets
out to cause. 1t is clearly absurd to
speak of his conduct as brutal"
Rather should we call II devllish, the
devil usually being credited with a
goodly share of intelligence. We must
cease to libel the brutes by designat-
ing the basest acts Of man as brutal.
AS a matter Of fact, they cannot be
charged with nonmoral conduct, see
Ing that they are devoid of self-cOn-
seriousness.
