BANKS MUST NOT Be
SAOOLED WITH LOAN
IS SOLEMN WARNING
Finance Professors Declare Victory
Loan Must Be Popular to Insure
Prosperity.

The banks OF the United States mus
be left free 10 finance the reconstruc
ton of productive enterprises an6
must not be cluttered up with the
Victory Liberty Loan. That is the
composite, thought-out opinion OF two
OF the Vests most noted professors o
finance. Carl c. Plehn. professor o
finance in the University of California
and Murray L. Wildman, head of the
department OF economics and finance
of Stanford University. Both agree
that the money needed to finish pay
ing for the war should not come on
OF working capital. but should be
raised out OF Individual savings o.
humble and wealthy.
III the people take the Loan. as they
must" Professor Plehn. says, 1.-THE
banks will be left free to lend to the
manufacturer, the farmer. the grocer
the butcher. and the baker. so thai
they can get busy again on a peace
time basis. Then production anc
business will grow and, by the formu
la. prices will come to normal. IL we
leave IL to the banks they will have
no funds left for business, big or little
We, ourselves. will not profit and the
day of our redemption will only be
postponed"
Professor Wildman, whose ability
caused him to be called from Stanford
TO Washington for war finance service
agrees with the California economist
adding: 1T would be grave mistake
to saddle the banks of the country
with the Victory Loan at this time"
When two professors agree, it's
time to sit up and take notice. Wher
two professors not only agree witt
each other. but agree with the gov
eminent, that settles 1t. Finance is
their business-particular govern
ment finance They have spent theiI
lives studying it and are paid gooo
salaries for teaching the principles o.
it TO the men who are going to ruI
the nation tomorrow.
Finance is not the business OF the
wiseacre who screws down the cor
ners OF his mouth and says, Let the
banks do it." Better take the advice
OF scientists who know

THIS THE GARDEN OF EDEN?
Many Believe That Territory In Which
Famous Spot Was Situated Has
Been Located.

"And the Lord God planted a garden
to the eastward IN Eden. And a river
went out of Eden to water the garden ;
and II was parted into four heads" -
Genesis
Sir William Willcocks, who, in be-
half of the British government, has
had charge OF the wonderful irrigation
works in Egypt, was assigned not long
ago to the duty of planning similar
large-scale enterprise for the restora-
ton of ancient Babylonia to its former
agricultural productiveness.
Thus it happened that he located, to
the reasonable satisfaction Of archie
ologlsts, the veritable site of the Gar
den of Eden. For reasons wholly prac-
tical he thought that the best way to
begin.
Starting from the spot where Jewish
tradition placed the gates of paradise
the word paradise" meaning gar
den-he followed the traces of the
four streams mentioned In Genesis,
MlllNllt uS llltl huliltht NNlG lllt i
son, the Glhon, the Hiddekel and the
Euphrates.
The Euphrates (known by that name
today flowed through the great city
of Babylon. The Gihon is now called
the Hlndia The Hiddekel is the mod
ern Sakhlawia, which flows into the
Tgris at Bagdad. The Pison has gone
dry, but is represented by many
armed channels accomplishing the
whole land of HavIlath" (see Genesis),
which lay between Egypt and Assyria.
The Euphrates enters its delta a
few miles below Hit, there leaving the
desert and debouchlng into a vast al
luval plain. In this departure it has
a considerable fall, with a number Of
cataracts, and along a narrow valley
giant water wheels lift water to irri-
gate of the land on both sides of the
stream.
The entrance to this valley accord
ing 10 Jewish tradition) was the gate
Of the Paradise in which Adam and
Eve dwelt, and from which they were
expelled for disobeying a divine com.
mand. There the traveller first meets
the date palm, which is tree of life"
(see Geness) to the whole Arab world
Along the valley garden succeeds
garden. 1t is today veritabIe para
disc. orchards and date groves check
cred with fields of cotton. The climate
Is everlasting summer, so that three or
four crops year may be grown.
Anciently the cataracts were much
higher. and water wheels were unnec-
essary, the water being led Off by
bitches.
The Garden of Eden indeed, gains
interest from the fact that 1t seems to
have been the first irrigated area In
the world.

ticularly when one has to fight back
bashfuness in the presence of the
other sex.
One morning Grover got out Of bed
with the determination to do two
things. First, he had made up his mind
to write up" very wealthy but OBJ
stinate prospect" Next he was going
down to the Union station, Introduce
himself and propose to the girl that
was rightfully his.
He did neither. When he got to the
office he found a telegram summoning
him to the head office in Chicago on the
first train that went. The train left be-
fore Leah went on duty at the stand,
and 1t took Grover away for three
years.
Leah watched in vain for the man
that was meant for her. When days
dragged into months and the months
into years she was forced to the con-
clusion that he had deserted her.
well, let him GO" she sighed. "Just
because he defies Destiny is no reason
why l should. l shall remain true to
him."
1t was early In the evening when he
returned from his three-year absence.
Leah was thumbing the first number of
a new periodical. when familiar voice
inquired:
Have you the Magnet Magazlne'?"
She jumped back and her eyes
opened wide. Then she smiled her first
real smile in three years.
'Why, yes, was just reading 1t.
But it contains an announcement that
it is the first number of the magazine.
There's a good article in the front

l used to ask you about the Magnet
Magazine l knew very well there was
no such publication. 1t simply gave me
an excuse to come in here and talk
with you now and then. Three years
ago | went to Chicago and got interest
ed in the publishing business. I made
some money, and finally launched the

HOUSING IN GREAT BRITAIN
Problem Bids Fair to Be Successfully
Worked Out Through Fair and
United Effort.

In connection with the problem of
reconstruction in the united kingdom
various housing schemes are contem.
plated. Variety in the model dwell,
ings to be erected has been encOur-
aged by the enterprise of the London
Daily Mail, which offered prizes
amounting to $4,000 for designs best
and most suitable in themselves and
most nearly in line with the architec-
tural traditions of the several dis
tricts."
The country was divided into four
areas-the northern, midland and
Welsh industrial areas, and the south
ern and midland counties rural area,
with a prize of $500 in each section
Over $500 designs were submitted. In
the winning designs the need for econ
omy in all cases was apparent.
In addition to these new model
homes, a demand has arisen for furni-
ture especially suitable for them, the
construction of which would be of the
simplest, combined with the required
rigdity and strength. A successful at
tempt to meet this need has been made
by the Shoreditch Technical institute
UOndon), at which cottage furniture
designed in the carpentry shops of thu
institute and executed by the boys a
the school, has been on exhibition.

HUNS GIVE UP WORKS OF ART
World Famous Paintings Stolen From
Belgium Returned as Stipulation
Of Peace Treaty.

By the terms OF the peace treaty
Belgium and Client will respectively
recover priceless works of art, one Of
which was supposed to have been de-
stroyed after the Germans entered
LouVain, while the other has long been
incomplete because two important
parts of II were In the Kaiser Friedrich
museum, Berlin. The Louvain paint
Ing Is the work Of Derrick Bouts,
Last Supper" which has been de-
scribed as certainly one of the finest
examples of Flemish fifteenth century
art" and was painted for the collegiate
church Of st. Pierre. The painting had
come down the centuries as the chief
adornment of the church, and disap-
peared after the German occupation.
1t was believed to have been destroyed,
but is now known to have been re-
moved and preserved by the invader,
and its return Is one of the stipulations
Of the peace treaty. The other famous
painting, "The Alteration of the Lamb"
has been called "the first and greatest
masterpiece of fifteenth century paint
ing produced in Flanders" 1t was
begun by Hubert van Eyck, but con-
tinued and finished by Jan van Eyck.
Time had separated the parts of the
painting and at present the central
panel remains in the chapel of st.
Bavon in Client, another part is in
Brussels, and yet another in Berlin.
Brussels will probably return her part
of the composition, and Germany is to
give back the portions that have been
In her possession, so that the painting
as a whole will once more be assem-
bled in the chapel for which 1t was
painted.

sons to the hazards of war. Nor are
the Young men who were fortunate
enough to return to their loved ones of
a different mind. There is no thought
of Sinking or faint of cowardice in
this attitude They did their duty man
fully-both soldiers and parents
will do it again if need arises, but they
are deeply impressed with the thought
that in this age of boosted civilization
the horrors and cruelties of war have
no place.
Why, then, was it possible for a ma
iority of the United States Senate TO
so mancuyer as to kill, for the present
the peace treaty and the League of
Nationss II is because a part of the
people do not realize what their Sena-
tors have been doing, and another part
do not understand the consequences of
this conspiracy to prevent the estah-
lshmcnt of a permanent peace. There
has been a great deal Of misrcpreSenta-
ton of some features Of the treaty in
the effort to create the false impress

Cheer un and Gear UP.

It takes cheers and gears to make
this old world go. The average man
has so many things that hold him back
that he is in danger of giving up. But
the great men of the age are the prod
net Of trial They come through the
furnace tried and fitted for life's OBJ
stacles because they have dared face
the up-grades with II smile. Emerson
says, Mature. wheE she adds difficult
ties, adds brains" That may not seem
to be true while we are under trial,
but the saying holds in the long run.
And besides blo;s. you must have n
reasonable meGsuie of good cheer. It's
so easy to go down because there Is
nothing in the mind to add resistance
to the constant thud of adversely. You
must cheer up as well as gear up II
you are going to win.

Binocular Vision.

A very few of the lower animals,
like some of the monkeys, seem to
possess the true binocular vision; that
is, they center both eyes on the same
object ut the same time and blend the
two images into one. The dog is not
one of these, in spite of the forward
position of its eyes; it is but a single
eye that the dog centers upon the OBJ
iect of interest. Man, on the other
hand, possessing a well-developed fac
ulty of using both eyes upon the same
object with successful results, prob
ably leads the entire procession in the
matter of binocular vision.
