An INCIDENT or LOYALTY.

Loyalty to the paper 10 an un-
derlying essential in the make up OF
L. good newspaper man. News
papering is not always and alto
gether pleasant task. News Is
news whether It affects our friends
or our enemies and accuracy In re-
porting the news IL imperative. The
news man must subordinate his per-
sonal Nkings and dislikes to '.the
paper" He must, II he 10 to be and
remain . good newspaper man"
bend hts own desires and forget his
own comfort and even his own safe
u to the service OF throwing an &C.
curate picture Of occurrences and
events upon the white screen that
the reader watches for and seixes 20
eagerly day after day. Lacking in
those elementary essentials he can
not claim the title Of good news
paper man."
rather an extreme illustration OF
devotion to duty and loyalty to "the
paper Is afforded by an incident in

Answers to Yesterdays Questions.
1. What oddities has the bobolink?
The bobolink stands alone. He is
not a lark, nor finch, nor a warbler,
nor thrush, nor starting (tno
classed with the starlings by late
naturalists). He is an exception w
many well-known rules. He is the
only ground bird known to me of
marked and conspicuous plumage. He
Is tho only black and white field bird
east Of the Mississippi, and, what is
still more odd, he is black beneath
and white above-the reverse Of the
fact in all other cases.
2. Does breeze make the fish
bite?
When there Is much going on In
the air, there is quite sure to be much
going on in the water. You have been
casting perhaps. for an hour with
scarcely a jump or any sign Of life
anywhere about you, when presently
the breeze freshens and the trout be-
gin to respond. and then Of a sudden
ducks come sweeping by; looms laugh
and wheel overhead; the fish hawk
screens; the bald eagle goes Tapping
by, and your eyes and hands are full

alarming. The candidate and the

II you're figuring on going any

to stand not upon the order Of your

How altruistic are you?

Another thing about Col. House:
He knows Just when to go on a
European trip and seems to know
about how long to stay away. There
are times when to be at home is
to welcome trouble, Then too. there
are times when to go abroad has its
set backs but that phase is to be re-
ferred to Mr.. Wilson. He knows
about that-now.
Tuition pupils in the Des Moines
high schools pay ISL a year for their
privilege of attendance. In the ele-
mentary schools pupils pay $sO.75.
Now it would seem to the ordinary
observer that privilege that an
outside pupil In glad to pay $12 and
So month for is one that the home
student whose tuition is paid by
taxes should not fail to make most
OF. It's worth money, big money and
that is the minor part OF it. School
privileges are inestimable in value.
The Wilson load is heavy one
and Candidate Cox is trying to buck
it off. He can't do It. The conven-
ton threw tho diamond hitch on
him.

THE BUSINESS FIELD.

Expectations Of revival of business
with the passing OF Summer are be-
ing strengthened by the continued
favorable crop outlook, but much
will also depend upon future trans
portation conditions and the action
of prices.
Months Of interrupted freight
movements have caused inconven-
fence and loss to various interests.

many transactions. and early ade-
quate relief from the congestion does
not even now seem to be In prospect
Complaint OF the difficulty or i'm
practicability of securing urgently
needed fuel and other material comes
from many manufacturing centers.
where partial or complete suspension
Of work has been forced in numerous
Instance, and inability to ship finish
ed product rapidly enough to prevent
burdensome accumulations is further
embarrassing the great steel indus
try. Such impediments as these are
alone sufficient to appreciably cur
tail business operations, but there
remains the element OF price uncer-
tainty to impose added restraint an
activities.
While there Is less divergence OF
opinion on the price question than
recently. doubts as to the probable
scope. and extent OF the downward
rsadjustment make for hesitation
and waiting In most quarters. and
si~ahle demands are still lacking for
such important commodities as tex
tiles and hides and leather and foot
wear. Anticipating continuance Of
the price yielding. and recognizing
the significance OF the changed pur-
chasing disposition among consum-
ers, many merchants are disinclined
to commit themselves extensively for
the future, and predictions Of short
age Of supplies to follow have thus
far failed to awaken buyers interest.
The latter are beginning to appear
In the leading markets In large num-
bers. but the previous rush 90 secure
goods at almost any cost has been
replaced by policy Of operating AZ
