KAISER BILLS DADDY.
Picture Taken From House by
United States Marshall.

Mike Healy, deputy United States
marshal, salvaged fine little souve-
mir from the walls of the home of
Jacob Heiber, in Cedar Rapids says
the Cedar Rapids Republican
wednesday evening in the way of
a photograph of the late much Ia
mented Tin Germany, William, l..
father of old Bill Hohenzollern. the
kaiser and prince OF villains.
The Heiber family brought this
picture to America when they arriv-
ed in the early eighties. William
the first villain, was their principal
reason for leaving Germany, al
though they perhaps have not
themselves realized it yet. But
they brought the arch rascal's pic
ture with them and they had it in
the front room facing the door so
visitors could get first rate look
at it.
I several complaints came to the
mavhals Office regarding the mic
ture and Wednesday afternoon late
with Captain Mcguire, a visit was
paid to the home
1t is a beautiful home, too. for
the Heibers have prospered in this
country. Their condition now Is
quite, different to what it was when
they arrived here, upwards to forty
years ago. OF this worlds goods
they are we'll supplied and to be
sure OF their thrift had a great deal
10 do with It, that and their hard
work. They bought out of their
money handsome gilt frame for
the Picture of William the First.
They put the picture on the wall
and it was some picture. There he
was with pink mutton chops, all
dolied up in regula lion uniform
with the decorations and the steel
light in his blue eyes. Oh, he was
some beauty all right and when
Mike Healy took him out of the
frame he was not very gentle about
1t for the Heiber family gave him
UP although it was only after a
considerable conversation in which
Nike Healy had little the best of it.
The picture may be sold at auc-
ton, selling to some one the privi-
,,lege OF touching match to it.

Iowa Grocers WHO Handle Eggs
Must Obtain Licenses

J. F. Deems, federal food adj
for this state, announced
Friday that any Iowa grocer who
buys eggs must have federal
license. Fourteen thousand grocers
in the state are effected.
The federal food administration,
Mr. Deems said, has decided that
the buying grocers must come un-
der the license law, and that il
they do not obey the regulations
for Gambling and counting of eggs
they will be put out of business.
The license law requires grocers
to candle and count all eggs bought
from producers with loss out. y
The food administration applies the
license loss and waste OF food and
transportation Mr.. Deems said.

Why Not Get Down to the Essential

Why Not Get Down to the Essential
One pape:, commenting on the
Iowa language matter, says that
such a thing has never been dream
ed of even in Germany. There he
is in error. 1t has not only been
dreamed of, but it is enforced. The
use of all foreign languages has
beep prohibited in Germany during
the war. Any group that speaks
English or French for instance,
would be soon molested. The max
ing of a speech in English would
cause a riot. Germany has taken
these precautions, we believe, wise
ly enough. 1t enables them to
know better what is going on. Nor
is the danger in Germany, on ac-
count of foreign languages, half as
great as it is here. There are no
propagandists carrying on in Ger
many. They would not tolerate
what we tolerate here. In this
country we have all sorts of foreign
groups and the ever active German
/. propagandists know how to use
their various foreign languages
and they do so use them.
But, in any event, we should not
be in favor of making Germany our
avo ", pIor IN euob or apy Otba. N, a \ =
tiers. We should not fo:bid the use
of foreign languages here simply
because they do that in Germany.
Here it is entirely a question of
what is best for the public safety
and the prosecution OF the war.
That is all we need to concern our
selves about-except that we should
not now and never again lose sight
of the fact of Americanization of
all our foreign elements. That is
the essential thing, in our opinion.
We should not permit this war to
come to an ending without havin g
righted ourselves into a policy of
the complete Amd'icanization OF
America. And that policy means
among other things, that every boy
and girl growing up in this land
shall be taught the American Ian
guage and in that language be
taught something about the Ameri-
can government, and taught in such
a mannec that it will result in the
love OF America and of things AM
erican.
The Americanization of America
is in reality more vital than any
thing else, except the winning of the
war itself, which will be in its turn
a vast step in the direction of Am
ericanizing ourselyes.-Cedar Rapids
Republican.

SET AN EXAMPLE or HONESTY
Street Car Passenger Left Fare With
Woman Who Took Advantage of {
Opportunity to Be Dishonest.

The man in the corner seat looked
worried. At last he spoke.
Madam" he said, will you kindly
take this nickel and give it to the con-
ductOr when he comes around? have
been trying to catch his eye, but he APP
parently does not see me. VIII you see
that he gets it,"
The woman sat bewildered In the
presence of such extraordinary hon
esty, but she gOod-naturedly accepted
the trust. After the man left the car,
she, too, attempted to establish line
of communication with the conductor,
but failed. She was nearing her own
destination, but conscience forbade
her leaving the car until her neigh
boris fare had been paid. Before that
feat was accomplished she had been
carried four blocks past her street.
When she finally got home her temper
was slightly damaged.
But you shouldn't have been so &C
commodating," said her husband. You
should have got off at your corner"
But how could II" the woman ar
gued. with that mans honesty be-
fore me as an example of right living
l simply had to turn his nickel over to
the conductor"
Maybe you are right" said the man
admiringly. Women certainly do have
? fine notions about these things. But
it is too bad. You had to walk back"
"Oh, no, didn't walk" she said. IT
rode"
and that cost you another nickel"
mo, it didn't" she said. The con-
ductOs never even looked my way
when he came through, and l got off
without having to pay"

TESTING ADVERTISING VALUES.
When Special Bargains are Advert;S-
ed Some Display Should be
Made.

vital element of the advertising
problem was taken UP at the annual
~nvention at Philadelphia or the As.
ISOLATED Advertising Clubs of the
World An accounting system was
recommended by which retail mer-
chants caa test out the results of adj
vertising. How complicated or diff
hcult this would be for the ordinary
small merchant is not stated. But it
is the experience of most newspaper
people that merchants make no re-
liable tests of the value of advertis-
ing.
After paying fer good line of pub
licity, many merchants seem to feel
that they do not have to cooperate.
A person reads about the bargains in
the newspaper, and comes to the store
with a definite purpose to buy. The
advertised goods are frequently not
emphasized. There is nothing in the
way they are displayed to make the
customer realize that they are con-
s.dered as having any special value.
This is not good -salesmanship.
Whenever special bargains are adj
vertised, some display should be
made in the show window. At least
they should be placed on the counters
in conspicuous positions near the
front of the store. Many merchants
allot certain counter space for these
special bargains and find a constant
stream of people coming direct to
this spot where they have learned
to look for special opportunities.
A lot of cards ought to be printed
with the words LAS advertised" con-
spicuous, and room to write or stem
Gil in the price underneath. These
should be displayed as far as possible
with every bargain prominently adj
vertised.
| When a customer enters a store
and sees advertised goods displayed
in this way, the favorable impression
given by the advertisement is deepen
ed and confirmed. The idea is given
that the bargain is real one, in
which the merchant has confidence.
If handled in this way, test accord
ing to the methods suggested by the
Advertising Clubs will show results
that would surprise a great many
merchants

WE CONFESS OUR GUILT

Many years ago." writes the
editor of the Marshalltown Repub-
lican, when the writer was youth
over in Illinois, a wealthy man
died. This dead person had been
notorious in many ways and by
numberless methods. So naturally
the minister most noted as one who
could and usually did most elo-
quently preach 'em straight into
heaven" was secured to furnish ora
torical transportation for this GER
tain rich man. To the astonishment
of all concerned the minister start
ed off by informing his congrega-
ton that they and he knew all a.
bout the dead man and his wife,
that he wasn't going to say much
about him except to say that he
wouldn't want his boy to live like
that and nobody else would want his
son to take Mr.. Soando for an ex-
lample.
/ Then he went on to admonish the
living and made no further reference
to Mr.. Soandso's ultimate destina-
ton.
Somehow when certain slippery
politicians die and the newspapers
deal in fulsome obituary of the ode
parted statesman" the incident of
the rich man and the funeral come
to mind. That congregation had
been trained through long years of
custom to expect the officiating
clergyman to make good" So it
seems the obituary writer and the
public which have been referring to
la living man as a slippery polite
ian" and distrusting his every act
/ by common agreement met at the
funeral and laud him as a states
man and a patriot.
Say nothing but good of the
dead, " Maybe that's the best way
out of it. If the funeral sermons
and the obituary notices told the
truth, all the truth and nothing
but the truth, a mighty few of us
would enjoy reading the advance
proofs. Perhaps ii is as well that
newspapers do not base obituary
notices on Twenty-Five years ago."
Like as not it is good thing that
we forget wickedness in the pres
ence of the great shadow and re-
member only the good. And maybe
it's eXcusable when memory fails
and checks on the bank of recol-
lection are returned with mo
funds" that somebody is willing
to exaggerate a little smear lit
tie gold paint on the rusty record.
Still when man dies who has
lived in sheer selfishness, when the
politician passes who has made a
lsordid game of public duty, when
"a career closes that is spotted with
evil and barren of true service the
thought OF the country preacher
and the rich mans funeral comes
to mind. We wouldn't want our
sons to live such lives, We do not
want sly, gumshoed representation
of ourselves in government office.
we do honor real service in our
hearts and remember it. Perhaps
the evil that men do lives after
as the good that men do.
But man, man. If the minister
in the pulpit and the writer at his
machine were to paint things as
they were and not as they ought to
have been lot of us would hate
to die worse than we do now.
