ward Swift River with a skip and a
hop. He was always like that. When
ever there was a new sight to be
seen, Jimmy Rabbit was sure to be
among the first to see it.
He had no trouble in finding what
he was looking for. There on the river
bank was huge umbrella. Jimmy
was sure it was the biggest one in
the world. And under the umbrella sat
the strange man. In one hand he
grasped a queerly shaped board, and
a number of sticks. with which he
kept dabbing at aabig, flat thing that
stood in front of him.
Jimmy Rabbit was puzzled. He
stole nearer. And at last he had crept
so close that when he stood on his
hind legs he could see what the man
was working at
To his great surprise, he discovered
that Swift River was rushing and
tumbling across the big, flat object
which was propped upright in front
of the stranger
Jimmy couldn't understand it, Was
the man fishing? he wondered And

that John is my husband that counts"

A luckless fate attaches to the beauty of the

it is stale. Anachronistic whiskers grow to mar
our lovely front. Their daily amputation is a
necessary stunt The BARRIERS mnistrations

For, madam dear, the barber takes your hus-

of undeveloped stuff, whose personal appear
ance would alright the passer-by, would scare
a pup or kitten and would make the children
cry and after he has trimmed and slicked your
uninspring gent, he has the class and beauty Of
parlor ornament
And so the public joins us In . suitable
hurrah for Adam Morrei, dean of all his craft
in Omaha. He's shaved away the whiskers
from some mighty famous throats, whose own
ers otherwise had been but human billy goats.
He's married men to maidens whose naan1nas
have purred and beamed, when but for Nor
relrs craftsmanship. they would have fed and
screamed.
He deals in tonic for the hair to men who
will not learn that liquids and hot air cannot
persuade it to return; and lest his strongest
arguments be proven void and bare, he wears
on his denuded dome fossy patch OF hair
which has not been restored because it cannot
get away. The workman stuck it tightly when
he fashioned that toupee.

Plea for the law.

West Point, Neb., Jan. 14.-To the
Editor of The Bee: After reading
the article on the front page of The
Bee headed, "Many Jurors Condone
Action Of Mob" 1 wonder il we are
returning to the American Indian
age, and II Washington, Jefferson
and Lincoln lived in vain That
court house mob certainly put any
act of American Indians to shame,
at least any which have been record
ed in history.
The act of the mob defying au-
thority, defiling the flag, destroying
public property and trampling the
constitution under foot are seeming
ly immune from punishment for
their crimes. If these laws and con-
stitutions that have been violated
are SO unpopular In Omaha and
Douglas county that juries cannot be
secured that can be depended on to
render an unprejudiced verdict, then
in the name of those who fought to
givet us our constitution, let these
cases be tried where justice can be
done. Why crimes such as this
committed against the national con-
stitution. and striking at the very
foundation Of government are not
handled by the federal government
where punishment might be ex-
pected consistent with the enormity
Of the crime, ] leave to some of the
high-brow attorneys, who are respon-
sibls for the drafting and interpret
ing of our state and federal laws.
I want to conclude by saying to
those who blame this crime on lax
enforcement Of the law in Omaha,

Between the Bankers.

The little war cloud that has blown up be-
tween the Nebraska bankers and the Federal
Reserve bank looks ominous, but may not con-
tain elements of real danger. 1t all comes from
difference Of opinion as to how checks should
be collected. In former days the practice was
to exact collection charge on out-of-town
checks, although this was not universal. A rule
of the Federal Reserve bank forbids this to
member bankers. Nonmembers feel they have
right to adopt such practice as they may
deem advisable, within the law. This can not
be gansaid. nor can the federal bank be de-
MED the right to collect checks after the man
ner it has adopted, although the same does ap-
pear peculiar. In country where the exchange
of credit is almost universally carried on by
checks drawn on banks, and where the validity
of those checks is so completely protected by
law, it appears absurd that so great an institu-
ton as the Federal Reserve bank would from
time to time swoop down on small non
member bank with an unreasonable accumulation
of these checks and demand immediate cash for
their redemption. This can hardly fall short
of Inconvenience, and frequently must produce
real hardship to banks whose solvency is un-
questioned A better way Of doing business
ought to be devised, and one that will yet leave
it optional with bankers whether they join in
the body of the federal institution, which seems
to possess the power for oppression as we'll as

Berger's Case

Victor Berger was sentenced to federal
penitentiary because he aided the enemy and in
jured his own country when it was at war. He
was expelled from congress. His district in
Wisconsin reelected him. He is at liberty pend
ing an appeal of his case to higher court. He
will present himself for his seat in the house of
representatives. The house of representatives
will not allow him TO- take it.
This will be done not because Berger holds
radical ideas and promotes radical causes and
not because his district has not the right to
elect man Of radical ideas 1t will be done
because Mr.. Berger was found guilty of OBJ
structing his country's war activities and there
by aiding the Germans! 1t is no excuse that he
was a radical and hoped to advance the radical
cause. He was German radical and he helped
the German cause. Berger disqualified himself
for American citizenship and he is guilty unless
another court reverses the verdict.
His district could and did re-elect him as a
radical Congress, the judge of its own mem
bership, will not permit him to sit in the house
of REPRESENTATIVES, because he is a seditonst.
Congress will not disfranchse the district. 1t
disfranchised itself.
If Berger had nothing against him than the
fact that he was radical and extremist, the will
Of the district should be final. We tell the peo-
pie that they have the right to change their
form of government and that provision is made
for it in the processes of government. That is
true but district will not be represented by

On the Other Hand.
On the other hand, banking is
commonly ranked as the highest OF

or finance. Only men of character,
caution, stability, patience, and abso-
lutte integrity can make 4 perma-
nent success.
Machinery Replacing Men.
There was a time when 4 bank

records were kept by hand. The
mechanical work of copying every
thing taught the boys the business.

Swan, cashier of the National Bank
of the Republic in Chicago, ma
chinery is taking the place of men.

banking today, he must learn it out
side the bank!
What Should a Boy Do1

A banker is a man of wide affairs;
he deals with the whole world.

United States outside of New York,

HIS Mother Does the F1QhtinQ

AS Grover Cleveland Bergdoll does not deny
that he is guilty Of draft lodging" there is in
commenting on his case none of the improperly
that commonly marks discussion of offenses
charged and not yet proved In this instance,
apparently, all the allegations as Of fact are un-
disputed and the coming trial can be hardly
more than formal statement of them.
The young man did dodge the draft, and for
long time he lodged his pursuers, but at last
he has been caught, and the details of the catch
ing are not such as to make him an object of
much sympathy His mother, now, while hardly

their duty at least by her behavior illustrated
virtue, real though misapplied, while the son,
hiding in the box of window seat while his
mother fought for him, was not heroic.
He is quoted as saying that he would have
served his country if he had been allowed to
serve it as an aviator. That may be true, but
one cannot help wondering how his country
could know what service he wanted to render,
when he remained so persistently far from its

endless noise, but their nerves and
sympathies are exhausted.
Qualifications.
1t is impossible to name all the
qualities that are valuable in a settle
ment worker. These things are alb
solutely necessary: excellent nerves,
capacity for hard work, broad SYM
pathy with all kinds Of people and
sense of humor. Settlement work
is no place for the hysterical, over
sensitive girl who can't laugh her
troubles off at the end of the day.
The variety of the work is unlim-
tied. In general, the younger girls
are used as club leaders, while the
more experienced workers do the
visiting and neighborhood work.
College graduates, or girls who
have attended school of philan-
thropy, seem to be preferred. Some
practical experience as a teacher in
the summer vacation school, or as a
nonresident club director, before ac-
tually taking up residence will be
helpful. It also gives girl a chance
to see If she is suited for the many
demands that settlement work
makes.

Why is Jane Adams Twenty
Years in Hull House" one of the

sciencesi Why are the majority OF

Why Enter the Work.
Many answers are possible. 1t is

and an opportunity for no end Of
thrilling experiences. Then, too, the
stories of ill-fed, neglected children
arouse their sympathy and fire them
with determination to uplift their
neighbors of the slums.
Why Not Enter It?
Most young college girls entering
settlement work are carried away
with the idea of sacrifice for a great
cause and forget to examine their
own qualifications for the work. At
the end of the first week their noses
may be adjusted to the conglomera-
ton Of odors and their ears to the
