MIR. Wilson has a dreadful way

at him as an idealist. visionary, a
man without practical objectives,

fought to do. MIR. Wilson calmly
continues his great labors. and
presently lays his critics fat and
leaves them helpless either by doing

they ever dreamed of, or else by at.

NOGALES CAFE is
SCENE OF MUCH
INCREMENT

At an early hour this morning the
melodious strains of the excellent
music furnished by the 25th Infantry
orchestra at the Nogales Cafe gave
the writer every reason to believe
that the Washington's Birthday
dance that was being held in that
popular establishment, the Nogales
Cafe, was none other than "some
dance"
Upon entering the cafe "our belief
was confirmed" TO rthere was j
goodly number of the fair population
of Nogales indulging in Fox-Trot
Waltz and One-Step.
The floor of the Cafe is inexcellent
condition, and an ideal place for
dancing. Good "eats" for which the
Nogales Cafe is famous, went thei,
part toward making the evening a
big success.

brought to the United States-this
band heading the great street pa
rade" in New York in celebration
OF the victory.
Possibly no better illustration
could be had of the power of music
than the manner in which the ma
rine band captured" congress.
Down to 1856 this organization was
still officially known as fife and
drum corps" with its initial men,
bership limited to 81. About that
period, under the leadership of
Francis Scala, the marine band gave
concerts at the White House and
on the capitol grounds.
If music had charms to seothe the
savage breast" Scala demonstrated
that it also could influence congress
men for, soon after the Inauguration
of these concerts, congress legislat-
ed to reorganize the band and on
July 25, 1861, President Lincoln ap-
proved law recognizing it as part
of the military service of the United
States. On March ;, 1898, President
Mckinley signed a bill inerea sing

but the membership to Is.

Omaha daily bee., 1919-06-29

the rendering of "craek" military
bands at Toulon, Kensington Gar
dens (London}, in Paris, Berlin,
Cape Town, Calcutta, Hong Kong,
Yokohama and Manila, unhesitat-
ingly declare that the marine band
Of the United States suffers no in
Jury by comparison with any OF the
aforesaid organizations,
Indeed, there is reason to believe
that Daniel Webster, when describ-
ing the world extent of the British
empire in speech delivered before
congress in the '10s, got the inspira-
ton for his celebrated musical simile
from the drum and fife corps" OF
our marine band of that period in
the following characteristic words:
"A power which has dotted the sur
face of the whole globe with her
possessions and military posts,
whose morning drum-beat, follow
ing the sun, and keeping company
with the hours, circles the earth with
one continuous and unbroken strain
of martial airs of England"
Applied to present lime.
And, in the light of our recent
world expansions to Asia on our
west and Europe on our east, the
,simile might be applied with almost
equal exactness to the 1919 power
of the United States.
With the splendid example of the
Marine hand before them, it is not
surprising that we find the enlisted
men in the navy emulating it in the
musical line so far as restricted cir
cumstances would permit. Today
there is scarcely ship in the United
States navy OF any considerable size
which has not aboard it some mu-
sical organization in the instrumental
or vocal field; and these amateur
efforts have won for themselves a
semi-oficial recognition.

w Nth every market stand filled
w with the choicest of fall vege-
tables, the home caterer should
mako use of them on every possible occa-
sion, for the season of these delicious
garden products is nearly over.
Large, meaty tomatoes, green corn,
lima beans, squash, Brussels sprouts,
eggplant and kindred delicacies are now
at their best, and the meat bill should be
materially curtailed (if necessary so
that they may be freely INDUCED in.
Remember that the meat market "you
always have with you; but fresh vege-
tables will a little later be classed among
the Injuries.
Nearly all the l1ncheons for the week
have a vegetable dish as the main
course, while fish, eggs or cheese forms
the basis of most Of the evening dinners;
thus, if the vegetable item looms large in
the weekly budget, comparison with
the butchers account will show that
fair balance has been struck.
In preparing the mushroom and to-
mato toast, cut large firm tomatoes IN
thick slices and drop into boiling water
for moment. Skim out, drop into cold
water for five minutes and dry IN a
towel Roll in a seasoned flour and
brown quickly in hot bacon fat. Lay a
slice of the cooked tomato on round OF
bread that has been toasted or sauted IN
hot shortening and lay on top of each
tomato six PANIED mushroom caps. Pour
over the liquor from the pan in which
the mushrooms were cooked.
For any one partial to the flavor of
onions, the sandwiches served for the
Sunday night supper will be found par
ticularly appetizing. Butter lightly
crustless slices of graham bread (nut
bread is also excellent) and use for the
