A squandered dollar is lost and
gone forever. Whatever of value
it may have possessed for its own
er has ceased for all time.
Saving dollar constitutes
merely the beginning of helpful
process. Enthusiasm for thrift is
aroused which likes it doubly
easy to save the second, and SO
the good work continues until, in
less time often than had been
considered possible, a substantial
sum has been accumulated.
If you are among those who un-
fortunately have never become a
saver C money do not feel that
the start is not worth while, be-
cause the amount of your first
saving must perhaps be E. very
limited sum. No matter how slow
your progress may seem at first
and how many of the so-called
pleasures of the world you appear
to be giving up through self
denial. you will find that in the
end the pathway OF thrift leads to
success.
Save that first dollar. Put IL
to work for you. Not next week
or next year, but now.

Talking With Mars.

Ado enthusiasts may be on the brink of
IN discoveries more sensational than any which
yet have attended the development OF this science
Are the inhabitants of Mars-if they exst-try-
ing to signal the people of this planet? Tonight
the neighbor world will be nearer this earth
than has been the for number of years
The red star will be only 100000 miles away

the extraordinary advances in radio communi-
cation made during the past few months it is
ural for scientists to wonder whether the old ques
ton will not be solved at last
The question is not so fantastic as it sounds
Two years ago distinct and curious waves
picked up all over the world which could not be
traced to any of the ordinary sources. 1t is, Of
course, conceivable that they were due to an un-
usual state of the earth's atmosphere to some
disturbance in the sun Yet both these sources
would seem to be excluded by the fact that the
signals ceased suddenly they had begun, while
all the known disturbing continued as before
1t is, therefore, beyond the range OF possibility
that the signals then picked up actual attempts
from Mars to communicate with the earth.
If intelligent life exists Mars, told
it must be older than that this earth 1t has had
number OF centuries longer in which to develop a
civilization. In such event, the Martians probably
are much further advanced in radio communication.
They may have tried for number of centuries to
get word to the earth, which had apparatus to
receive the messages. The time may be near at
hand when nearest neighbors in the universe

Worth of Kisses.

S A long opposition to the republic is con-
"A fined to Kissing, the nation apply
itself peacefully to the task OF reconstruction"
With these words President Ebert of the Ger
man Republic bade farewell to Bavaria, after his
recent visit.
There had been some riotous street scenes
when the harness maker president came into the
center Of royalist propaganda, but he evidently
discounted them like wise man. He has gone
back to his summer home convinced that the people
Of Munich with the present government at
heart after all and that monarchist demonstrations
are not liable to result in anything serious.
President Ebert has been considered more or less
of joke. Even in Germany he has stirred
scant popular enthusiasm. To other men
the world has looked for the solution of Germany's
problems But this attitude, it seems has been
mistaken.
Ebert has let the joke makers have their day
He has worked quietly and effectively. To him
belongs much of the credit for the fact that the ma
ton has not already been split with bloody civil
war. The harness maker evidently understands
human nature-which is about the same in Germany
as in Paris, New York or northwestern Greenland.
1t requires with a cool brain to stand
before kissing crowd and then say. that the DEM
onstratlon doesn't amount to anything. 1t may be
easy several thousand miles away. But on the spot
it is hard to hear beyond the Kisses.
Too many rulers, Kissed Ebert was, would
go back to their capitals and order repressve
ures against those responsible for the demonstra-
ton. Ebert doubtless understands that such would
be the exact course most pleasing to the former
kaiser. Once forbidden, royalist activities would
spread like wdhre.
The whole system Of royalty is in the first
place, nonsense. II allowed its course every
body appreciates it nonsense and it does no dam
age. 1t does not hurt the German republic when a
band of street youths hiss President Ebert. 1t

young clamped in Jail for their activities
The president evidently appreciates this. And the
fact of his appreciation shows that he is not All
unworthy man to guide the OF the infant
republic.

7 UROPk. despite her mlsfortunes, remains the
T. market OF the world and OF the United
States in particular.
Illuminating statistics on the importance Of
continental consumers to American manufacturers
have been prepared by the United States Depart
mcnt of Commerce covering the periods immedi-
ately preceding. during and Immediately following
the war The trade OF the United States with
Europe differs in important respect from the
trade OF most other sections OF the world with
Europe. Most Of the on-European countries are
chiefly dependent on Europe market for foods
and raw materials The United States, being the
largest manufacturing country in the world de-
pended upon Europe, not only a market for foods
and raw materials, but for manufactured goods as
well, and manufactures the largest element
in United States export trade and the most rapidly
growing group Of our exports.
During the FIVE years preceding the war exports
OF American manufactured goods to Europe
amounted to S43Sooo,ooo, constituting 33H per cent
of our total export trade Europe, and "A per cent
OF our total exports of manufactures During the
same period foodstuffs exported amounted to $780,
100000, 223 per cent OF our exports to Europe
and ia per cent of total exports OF foodsuffs
Crude-materal exports were valued at Sso3,ooo 900,
or 44H per cent of our exports to Europe, and S44
per cent Of crude-material exports.
When it is recalled that manufactured goods
make up by tar the largest proportlon OF American
exports, and that Europe absorbs "A per cent of
this important group the dependence of the Unitet
States upon Europe a market not only for our
exports in general, but for manufactures, be-
comes evident. Europe is by far most impor
tant market for foodstuffs and crude materials and
also for fabricated materials 1t should be noted in
this connection that foodstuffs imports include both
crude foodstuffs and foodSluffs manufactured. If
We should include manufactured foodstuffs with
other manufactured goods, would find that sp-
proximately so per cent of American manufactured
products are exported to Europe.
The importance of Europe a market for
American manufactured products is more
clearly indicated when consider the chief groups
OF articles which make up export of manufac-
tured goods. In the year IoI3-I4, 6o3 per cent OF
American exports of agricultural implements were
sent to Europe, III per cent Of electrical machn-
cry and appliances, 72o per cent of cash regis
ters. 6zo per cent OF adding machines. 46 per
cent of sewing machines, 7e.7 per cent OF our

Fnger-Prints.

TINGER-prints probably are the one means of
absolute identification of human beings.
There can be mistake experts claim. The curli-
cues of the finger tips the same in two
persons.
In the past this device has been used mainly
in the detection OF crime. Because of this its
respectable. is smudged. Many an honest man or
upright woman might object to undergoing the
tests applied to burglars and murderers.
But it is certain to come into more general use
For the first time in history, a newy-born baby
hnger-printed in a New York hospital the other
day The child is identified for life. He never can
be mistaken for anyone else The forethought
shown by his mother may prove of inestimable
value at time in his career
The recent order that impressions be taken of
the fngerprints of postoffice clerks also is ind
cation of the general favor into which the
system is coming. These and women are not
criminals and'are not suspected OF criminal tenden-
cies Their unmistakable signatures obtained as
much as protection for themselves as for the
public.
The hnger-prnt record of every man who
served in the United States army during the wa,
is on file. Thus the government has positive
OF identification for nearly five million of her
citizens. This is certain to prove of value in many
emergency.
The time probably is not far off when the sug-
gestion of Mr.. William J. Burns that every man.
and child in the United States be finger
printed and the files kept in Washington will be
carried out Then there will be no mistakng indi-
viduals.
Men and women at present bury them
selves in the magnitude of Americas population
There is method of knowing them But wher-
they go hnger-print signatures are left Even
with the greatest they will leave these impress
sons many times each day.
The government, without doubt, needs these
records. 1t needs to know all its own citizens

manufactures other than machinery also depended
upon Europe to very large degree for markets.
OF such highly fabricated articles as pipes and
fittings Europe took 2o.8 per cent of our exports,
90 per cent of structural iron and steel ex-
ported and 28.6 per Of our exports of miscel-
laneous iron and steel manufactures.
Even in such highly specialized goods as scien-

instruments went to Europe; 58.5 per cent of the
motorcycles and 800 per cent of the automobiles.

Pay of Widows.

To the Editor The washington Herald:
Having experimental with the

men killed in action, by forcing
them to exist: live on $3.50 a month
for four years of their husbands
and fathers war risk insurance, the
legislative body are satisfied that
S57.50 per month is enough for any
body to live on in the present time.
1t is therefore under consideration
that all government salaries shall
be reduced to $3.50 per month, and
the bonus will be increased in con-
sequence to S25 per month, this
representing the compensation, SO
magnanimously granted officers

widow of the most illiterate private.
Therefore. heads of bureaus and

duce their pay to the level of the
clerical force, and taxpayers will
IN consequence be relieved of
very heavy burden. All the officials
Of the Veterans Bureau and also
members of Congress insist that

splendid provision for the widows
of the men who were forced to take
out government insurance before
they were killed In action. 1t is
therefore considered splendid for
