MUST PAY HIGH
FOR PASSPORTS

partment in Washington, without any
reason that have been able to learn,
has raised the fee to SO.
1.-The citizen of the United States
has to pay SO for his passport in the
first place, and then to pay another $40
to return from abroad, and the same
amount for the countries he visits On
the continent. Why the United States
Chamber of Commerce has not taken
up this question, which is so important
to American business men travelling
through Europe, am at loss to I'M
derstand.
Tourist Travel Hit.
I'm addition 1t will also interfere
with tourist travel in the summer,
which had already decreased consider
ably through the increase in passen-
ger fares made necessary by the high
cost of operation of the steamships, in
creased wages, food, fuel, etc"
Mr.. Mitchell said the Belgian govern
ment was putting the peasants back on
the land in Flanders, and in place of
the small cottages with earthen floors
which were demolished by the German
guns they were erecting neat, small
houses with tiled floors and modern
sanitary conveniences. From what he
had heard recently In Brussels before
sailing for New York, the government
would not rebuild Newport, the former
fashionable SeaShOre resort nc n had
been blasted to pieces by shells and
bombs, the avenues approaching it be-
ing ruined.
Dixmude, where the severe fighting
took place at the bridgehead on the
User, was to great extent demolished
also, but the people had started to re-
turn there In the summer of 1919 and
build on the ruins of their former
homes. The Belgian peasant loves his
country and does not want to 60
abroad to live, Mr.. Mitchell added.

1t Is becoming generally known to

necessary is II that she should have

She must be known to be fair and Just,

In making both sides believe in her.

Take one-half cupful of mild vim

those who do not enjoy the delicious
flavor of olive oil.

LAST NIGHTS DREAMS
THEY MEAN

such dream. AS to dreaming of saw
ing money, there are two schools-the
optimists and the pessimists. The OPP
timists declare that TO dream that You
are saving up money means that you
will have comfort and plenty, while
the pessimists think it portends losses.
The weight of opinion seems to be on
the side of the Optimists. If you dream
that you are swallowing money look
out for yourself; for If you don't you
will become so penurious and money
grabbing that you will almost, If not
quite. commit fraud to get it. So II
you get this warning loosen up the
purse-strings. If you dream of count
ing money you are liable to have dis
pute over a bill. In effect 1t seems
lucky to dream about money, but you
are warned not to be too much OF a
millionaire in your dreams, for If you
are too disgracefully rich in Dream
land your fortune will be only moder-
ate In real life.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
MASCOT"

~ NE of the most general Of
" superstitiOns the world
over is that q child born with
a "caul" or membrane over the
head is not only a soothsayer
but an extremely fortunate per-
son. In Scotland, as well as in
France, the caul itself is regard
ed as bringing good fortune TO
anyone who possesses 1t, and
high prices have been paid for
these unusual appendages.
The French word for a child
born in this manner Is
"masque," meaning masked" a
word which is analogous to
the Latin "masca," for sorcerer
= which possibly explains the
connection between the caul and
power attributed to those born
with 1t. 1t was from the French
masque, with a slight change
Of final syllable, that the Eng
lish "mascot"-meaning a lucky
piece-was derived. After be-
ing used for years by gamblers
and others of a superstitious
nature, the word was finally
introduced into literature by
Audran, in his opera La. Mas
cotte," in which the term des-
ignates the messengers of the
power of God, sent to counter
act the influence of the power
of evil.

DID YOU DREAM OF MONEY?

"HEN it comes TO a matter OF

them say that to dream of finding mon

and dreaming of losing money is n
good sign, indicating gain; probably
working on the dreams 20 by con-
traries' hypothesis. But the best and
most eminent authorities do not agree
to this. Some OF them admit that to
dream Of finding money signifies wor-
ries, but declare that out of these tenn
porary worries great good will come !;
while others content themselves with
the statement that to dream Of finding
money Is lucky. All agree that to

good business, though one authority

STORIES OF AMERICA AND AMERICANS
The Fight for Supremacy in the Ohio Country Between
Four Great Natons-A Contest that Had
its Inception in 1893

The contest between France and
England for possession of the
noHthwest country is a story more
intensive than any fiction and has
a romatc setting and fascination
that surpasses any plot of the i'm
agination Indeed a wonderful tale
could be written under the title of
Eight for Supremacy of Four
Great Nations" : the Aborigines,
French, English and Americans.
Spain does not figure in this story.
This contest for the northwest
had its inception as long ago as
when John and Sebastian Cabot in
1893 discovered the continent Of
North America and came up the
coast as far as Virginia. 1t was
in full motion as soon as Sir Walter
Raleigh received permission in 1885
for Richard Greenville to establish
an English colony on Ronoake Island
now North Carolina The con-
test for the northwest was on in all
its intensity when Champlain, who
founded a statement at Quebec, in
1903 made the fatal error of join
ing the Algonquins in their war
against the Iroquois and used the
musket in his attack; a weapon un-
til then unknown in the western
wilds of the American continent.
The red men, though panic stricken
by this mysterious force, never
forgot the day. The contest did

Sheriff Bob Ford had a strenuous
time last week all due to the spring.
time antics of delinquent automo-
biles and some people who spent
more or less of their time contribut-
in~ to the delinquency Of aforesaid
automobiles.
Among the varied experiences of
the week, Bob" picked up three sus-
poets with bort car between Wau-
seon and Delta and brought the out
fit back to Wauseo.t One of the
men produced bin of sale for the
car which Bob diagnosed as
"phoney"; he wired Detroit police
and elected the information that the
car had been purchased on a con-
tract one of the provisions of which
was that the car should not be taken
out of the State of Michigan until
fully paid for In response TO
Sheriff Ford's inquiry as TO whether
he should hold the suspects for the
Michigan authorities he was answer
ed in the negative and accord ngly
let them go; after the trio had been
gone about half day the Detroit
police wired request to hold the
suspects, but they were "way too
late" and Sheriff Ford's office like
the mater-m of poetic fame,
never grinds again with the waters
that are past"
Another event of this week was
the locating Of a seven passenger

Toledo. two miles north of Data.

dropping the curtain upon the war
of 1872
De Celeron and Father Bonne-
camps encircled nearly all of Ohio
in their 1749 expedition down the
Allegheny and Ohio rivers and up
the Miami and across to and down
the Maumee, in order to nail down
the claim of France to this terri
tory.
Christopher Gist for the Ohio Com
pany i'm 1850 came westward to
search out and discover the lands
upon the Ohio river" He crossed
the country from Beaver creek in
HsnnsNlvania to tha Muskingum,
where they found an English flag
already raised by George Croghan
at an Indian town of hundred
families.
James Smith, though not as an
explorer, but a traveller with the
Indians, spent from 1855 to 1859
in the Ohio country and George
Croghan mentioned above, an En-
gksh subtcommissioner, made an
official trip in 1765 from Fort Pitt
down the Ohio to the mouth of the
Wabash.
These travellers and explorers were
the first white men to give a definite
account of their experiences and
findings and each in turn is worthy
of separate sketch.
