PASSING OUT CROWNS.

The Finnish government what
ever that may be, is reported to have
offered the crown of Finland to Prince
Oscar, fifth son of the kaiser. If the
report be true, the offer displays due
appreciation, an honest gratitude, for
the service which the kaiser has gra-
ciously rendered in relieving Finland
from Russian oppression and offering
it the full measure of self-determina-
tion which the good German sword is
winning for all peoples. Like true
knight errant, Germany has gone to
Finland's rescue bringing order out of
disorder, laying truly Roman peace
on the land, with never a thought of
reward. And now, 10, throne is Of
fered. True, the throne Of Lithuania
had hitherto been promised for Prince
Oscar, but another son will do as well
for that. After all, what is a throne
between princes? Two thrones, even
half dozen thrones, are no more than
n just reward for such thrift as the
kaiser has shown. Six sons he had in
1914, and six he has today, says Bos-
ton Globe. Every one of them, from
Frederick William down to Joachim,
has been saved for the German people.
Mot another father in all Germany
can say as much.

"War will pass" says Olive
Schreiner, when intellectual culture
and activity have made possible to
the female an equal share in the con-
troll and government of modern ma
tional life." And why? Because "ar-
bitratlon and compensation will nat
urally occur to her as cheaper and
simpler methods of bringing the gaps
in national relationship. Strange
that this idea never occurred to man !!
Strange that no delegate at The Hague
should have perceived so straight a
path to peace. Strange that when
Germany struck her long-planned, long
prepared blow, this cheap and simple
measure failed to stay her hand War
will pass when injustice passes, writes
Agnes Repplier, in the Atlantic. Never
before that day, unless hope leaves the
world.

The federal department of labor has
undertaken to organize means of
bringing together employers of agri-
cultural labor and persons seeking op-
portunity to engage in work on the
land. Large posters advising farmers
to give their requirements for farm
labor for the coming season to their ru-
raj route carrier, postmaster or coun-
ty farm agent are being distributed by
the department. Persons who desire
farm work are urged to enlist with
these representatives of the govern
ment. There are 1000 farm agents
who, together. with $4,000 rural car
riers and third and fourth class post
masters, give the department approx,
imately 100000 agents. These agents
have been supplied with the necessary
blanks. The experiment can do no
harm and may produce practical re-
suits.

PROTECT THE BIRDS.
~

Birds are the most effective protec-
tion against insect pests. Wherever
bird life Is reduced to minimum farm
ers and gardeners suffer. The boil
weevil of the cotton states and other
insect pests that afflict the South,
could be kept in check by quail and
other birds that feed on them. The
house wren is the great destroyer of
moths. Almost every destructive in
sect is the natural food Of some ma
tive bird, and game birds are among
the best Of these protectors. The no.
BILE and now practically extinct wild
turkey eats grasshoppers and locusts
In preference to all other food, as does
his domesticated descendant. 1t would
astonish city dwellers to see the scien-
tific drive flock of turkeys will make
through field infested with grass
hoppers. The whole country should
unite to protect our feathered friends,
says New York Commercial. If the
destruction of birds is not checked
many beautiful and useful species will
soon be extinct. We owe it to our
selves and those who. come after us to
preserve the balance of nature which
has never been upset without inflicting
heavy losses upon mankind.

1t will shock many to learn that in
this country are five and a half mil
lion adults unable to read or write.
This condition is serious menace, for
liberty can flourish only on enlight-
enment, and Secretary Lanes urging
of the government to act will have
general Endorsement. But it can be
said for this country that in view Of
the opportunities offered and urged, IL
literacy is not an involuntary misfor-
tune, but deliberate crime.

Some of the Britishers give remark
able excuses for attempts to evade the
law against boarding food. 1t would be
hard to have imagined more affecting
story than that told by Miss Evodia
Hughes of Carmarthen, who bought
102 pounds of meat in ten days, and
tried to convince magistrate that she
was perfectly justified, as the pur-
chase was made for st. Bernard dog
with weak heart. She probably con-
cluded that the magistrate had no
heart at all, when he sentenced her to
pay fine equivalent to SIPS.

The absurdly small forces with
which the Germans have been over
running Russia and carrying off the
food supplies Of the country is indi-
Gated by the Russian report that the
troops which were defeated at Kher-
son numbered only 500. The Rus
slams could almost drive the Germans
out of their country with stones and
clubs if they could once be aroused to
try 1t, and the reports indicate that
they are becoming aroused.

 The remains of Captain Cheno were shipped to Washington, where they will be inferred in Arlington cemetery until the close of the war, when they will be removed to France. A detail of French officers connected with the military mis- sion, accompanied the remains, While telegram of sympathy was sent the French ambassador by the Chamber of Commerce.

No other criminal case in the history of Alabama attracted such attention as did the Lacy case. A trusted clerk of the convict department, where he was in charge of thousands of dollars. he went to a Montgomery bank, drew out approximately s90,00o and escaped in an automobile.
 The money was placed in a small pine box, and Alabama for many months heard of the Pine Box" story. Lacy's disappearance created one of the big gest sensations in the state. The search for him was started, but one night long afterward Lacy surrendered to Horace Hood, then sheriff of Montgomery county.
 What became of the money?" and where did Lacy hide during the days every officer in the south was on his . trail?" are among the many questions Alabama has been asking. But Theo Lacy told nothing-and it is predicted when his Liberty Drive" begins at the next meeting of the state board of par done he will have as little to say as possible.
 Recently the state building has been filled with Lacy rumors. It has been stated he would seek a pardon before January, when Governor Henderson and all members of the board of pardons go out of office, or change to other de- partments. Miles c. Allgood, state au- ditor, now a member of the pardon board, will become commissioner of agriculture, but will not be member of the pardon board. Secretary of State John Purifoy and F. Lloyd Tate, attor- rey general, will go out of office in January.
 Lacy has kept quiet now for many years, serving the state as trusty. He has been in charge of the Bertillon department, and is well liked by con-
