Hide and Seek by Army and Navy.

Not much has been told of the details of the
bombing tests to be conducted by army and
navy flyers this month, and the probabilities are
that not much will be made known to the public
concerning the results Brigadier General
Mitchell and his associates in the army air serv-
ice have reused the ire Of the seadogs by claims
that battleships of the current type would be
helpless before explosives dropped from the air,
and the results of these experiments may be mo-
mentous in influencing the national program of
preparedness.
The radio controlled, oil burning battleship
Iowa will be turned loose unnamed about 100
miles of the Virginia capes. Blimps and sea-
planes will attempt to locate her she is steered
by wireless device on control ship far away.
Then dummy bombs will be dropped, it is an

explains "The ship then will be abandoned and
the officer aboard the controlling ship has con-
troll Of the Iowa The first radio signal sent out
is intercepted by the aerial on the Iowa and is
received by the radio device located we'll below
decks This signal is then amphed by means
OF special vacuum tube amplhers and is maze
to operate very sensitive relay or switch, which
in turn operates larger relay. This closes an
electrical circuit which operates an electrically
controlled pneumatic valve. When this valve
opens it admits compressed air to the throttle
control which causes the throttle to open and
brings the ship up to full speed"
: Another ingenious mechanism enables the
ship to be steered in any direction; and another
makes it possible to shut off all power and stop
her In this test the main aim is to ascertain the
ability Of aviators to locate ship at sea. Some
indications of reluctance on the part OF the
navy to emphasize the possibilities of ships be-
ing disabled by explosives dropped from the air
has been noted. However, the contest as 1t
stands contains many sensational features not
the least interesting of which to landsman IS

1t is in the matter of production that the
engineer means most to the future OF the ma
ton. Some of them may look for their results
in public service, but more will perform their
exacting and helpful tasks in industry. 1t is
the engineers who arc now overhauling the
whole system OF production, seeking out its
wastes and suggesting Improvements. To make
it possible to obtain greater benefits and output
from human toll and to put production and con-
sumption on a more efficient basis is as great
service as could be rendered to the world.

Granite From Which We Were Hewn

OrAnlte FROM Wnlcn we were F1eWn.
This is the age of great cities, among them,
Omaha.
The story Of its building as told in The Bee
Of Sunday was amazing. Old as it is yet many
who now live and work in this Middle Western
metropolis know little or nothing Of the trials
and triumphs by which the early settlers estab-
lished il. The men and women of the ifty-year
period which was commemorated as the semi
centennial of The Bee had their vision as we
now possess the reality. The growth and sue
cess Of the city they planted in the fertile valley
of the Missouri was passion with the citizens
Of that day. 1t is we'll to search ourselves to
determine if this same ideal yet hourishes in its
pristine strength.
The city in which we live is different from
that the early citizens knew. The needs and the
problems are unlike in many respects those
which beset them. Yet it is the same kind Of
leadership, the same spirit of devotion and the
same loyalty to the community and the empire
about it that the fifty years now opening will
require.

BREAST FEEDING.

Each Of the baby foods has some
advantages and some disadvantages.
No food compares with human milk
for the human baby. 1t is practical
ly free from bacteria, does not con-
tain tubercle bacilli or other dis
ease producing bacteria. is always
fresh and of the right temperature,
never spoiled, and comes nearer hav-
ing the food elements present in eX-
actly the right proportions than does
any other baby food.
The baby who takes it rarely has
diarrhoea, and. if so, it is not seri-
GUS as rule. They have only one
seventh the death rate of babies
otherwise fed, and their advantage
iii the hot months is greater still.
They have far less measles. scarlet
fever, diphtheria, and other conta-
gious diseases. The only disadvan-
tage is that If the baby cannot get
or take mothers milk because of
diarrhoea. or because the milk dis
agrees, or because of other reasons,
it is difficult to feed the baby.
The advantage to the mother IS
that she is spared the strain of
nursing her baby through serious
illnesses. Some women fatten and
feel at their best while nursing their
babies. The mother who breast
feeds gets more pleasure from
motherhood and gets f1rmer hold
on the affections of her child.
The disadvantages to the child
are few. 1t keeps the mother at
home. She cannot stay away from
her baby longer than four hours.
This is in part overcome by having
the mother give one artificial feed
ing a day. This permits her to get
away once a day from six to eight
hours. In many factories where wo-
men are employed the mothers are
encouraged to go home once or
twice during the day to breast feed
their babies. Some women find

Another View of Ireland.

Sidney, Neb, June 16. TO the
Editor Of The Bee: Scanning the
pages Of a recent issue of The Bee
I was attracted by the letter OF Mr..
Jerry Howard on The Condition Of
Ireland" Having been born, and
having lived for over 80 years in
that little island of shamrocks, ir-
reconcilables, and spuds. / was nat
urally interested in reading Mr..
Howard's pathetic letter.
Unfortunately, the letter is an ef-
fusion Of the usual type-utterly
one-sided, and characteristic of the
impulsive, emotional Celt. who re-
fuses to think deeply and logically,
wrong, which does not harmonize
with his specific views.
Mr.. Howard states that England
laid hold Of Ireland about ITO A. d.
Quite so, but he did not say how
that event came about. it was thus:
The then pope, (according to his
ecclesiastical title, Adrian 1V), was
an Englishman (Nicholas Break
speare), and as such was doubtless
acquainted with the character of the
Hibernians of his day-which was
Of the same "twill'' as today. Henry
II was then king of England, and
like other sovereigns was anxious
to add to his dominions. Ireland
lay next door, so he applied to
Adrian to assist him in his project.
This the pope did Che also being
desirous of extending his rule), in a
bull to the king, and from which
take the following excerpts:
"You have signified to us
your desire to enter the island OF
Ireland in order to bring that peo-
pie into subsection to laws and to
exterminate the weeds of vice from
the country"
1--WE therefore, noting your pious
and laudable desire which it de-
serves express our will and
pleasure that in order to check the
spread of vice, to reform the state
of morals, and promote the incul-
cation Of virtuous dispositions. you
shall enter that island and execute
therein what shall be for
the welfare of the country; and let
the people of that land receive you
in honora BILE style, and respect you
as their lord" Mote: There are
some who question the existence or
Adrian's bull, but DR.. P. w. Joyce,
an Irish historian, says, in his Con
else History of Ireland" "the evil
dence is overwhelming on the other
side" Also. Rev. DR.. Lanigan, a
Roman Catholic historian, says:
"Never did there exist more real
or authentic document" And from
those excerpts we learn that Adrian
practically ordered Henry to invade
Ireland: that the people should re-
ceive him as their lord" and that
the inhabitants were living in con-
dition Of vice and crime.
That England will ever allow Ire
land absolute independence, is an
utopian dream. Ireland is a STRAIT
egic point in case Of war. and could
readily be the base OF attack by an
invader, as was attempted by the
Germans, with the assistance of the
Feiners. during the late war. The
entire history Of Ireland shows her
to be incapable Of absolute self
government, and the more rational
minds amongst the people recognize
that dominion home rule, as now
established in Ulster province. is
capable of meeting every need. But,
will the southwestern provinces ac-
cept it? Probably not

breast feeding their young babies
at 10, 2, and o'clock and their
older ones at 10 and 6 more trouble
some than getting up, preparing ana
heating the babies bottles. others
think it less trouble.
Extensive trials made in various
parts of the world show that more
than 95 per cent of the mothers or
young babies can breast feed pro-
vided they can and will make that
their principal business.
To do so they must not worry
They must get plenty of good sleep
They must not overwork. Ihey
must empty the breasts properly at
regular intervals. AS a rule com
plete emptying is advisable even
though each breast is emptied not
oftener than once every eight hours.
Some women fail because of brok-
en- sleep, others because they are
overworked. The necessity for
working out prevents many women
from breast feeding. Diet is not
much of a factor. A few women
cannot breast feed because they eat
too little, but the number in this
country is small. AS rule mothers
eat too much. In their desire to
eat enough to furnish mix Ior tne
baby they overeat, cause some de-
gree of digestion, or start on the
road to obesity. There are no spe-
cial milk producing foods. A diet
composed of good milk, meat,
bread, cereals. soups, vegetables,
and fruits fills all requiremtns.
Closing the breweries will not lessen
the supply Of mothers milk.

Right now everybody is boosting for Alaska and to help this alona the Superintendent of Schools and the Juneau Board of Education are providing students of the Senior High School the opportunity Of learning something about their great Terri tory. in course in the History of Alaska. The History of Alaska is interesting. There are many people who know nothing about the Cos sacks crossing the Ural Mountains in their struggle to the East and the brave attempts of Boring to find a mainland. Many explorers pushed to the East of Siberia in their attempt to reach Alaska.
 The resources of Alaska are un limited. Fishing. mining. numbering pulp manufacturing oil drilling and agriculture furnish boundless oppor- tunities. Alaska exports each year $100000,O00 alone in furs. Fish and gold and copper in exchange she imports $5O,0O0.000 worth of mater ial. Are you for a better Alaska heart and soul?

 In Every Respect.

The semester just ended has beer a very successful one for the Juneau Public Schools from every poin; of view. according to Supt. J. F. Lanz. In the Senior High Schoo. the percentage of failures for the first semester was only eight and one half per cent. This is about one and one half per cent less than the average number of failures. The Junior High School shows nine per cent failures. In view of the fact that the requirements have been ma terially raised, this is very credit able showing. From the general attitude about the school, it seems certain that the new semester will net even better results.
