lar slight tension, called tone is ap-
parently a stimulus to more efficient

DR., Skaggs' observations suggest that
it is the whole man that goes to work

whole man. The competent individual
is one whose entire system is in har-
monious condition. prepared for efficient
action at any moment. But such per-

generation are rare. Perhaps they never
have been very plentiful

Greely's Arctic exploration party, and
was associated with Maj. Gen. Funston
in the relief of San Francisco after the
earthquake and fire in 1905. He had
charge as commander in chief OF the
Atlantic Fleet, of the operations off
Vera Cruz In 1914. and was chairman
of the Executive Committee OF the Gen
eral Board OF the Navy during the
Great War.
A man Of the broadest as we'll as the
most varied experience, he was noted
fer his thorough knowledge, his con-
genial manners, his enthusiasm, his
sense of justice and his appreciation
of the good work of other men. A
friend of emperors and kings, presidents
and premiers, he was nevertheless
abundantly democratic by temperament
ard practice. No service man was too
unimportant, no service problem too
Insignificant to merit his attention. He
was called Square Deal" b. his mid
shipmen, and the sobriquet stuck to
him.
Admiral Badger advocated big navy,
urging that the naval establishment OF
the United States be maintained on
an equality with the largest in the
world. But his Interpretation of the
functions and purposes of the Navy
was extremely liberal. In his judg-
ment. it was a protective institution in
the universal meaning of the phrase.
Perhaps the finest tribute to his
memory is that expressed by his COM
rede, Rear Admiral Hughes, who
speaks of him as probably having had
greater influence upon the personnel
of the Navy than any other officer of
his time.

The Dreams of Youth

From the Omaha Evening World-Herald
Away down deep in his aristocratic
old heart, King Boris of Bulgaria, with
all the power and wealth of a kingdom
at his command, still retains a boyhood
hankering to be locomotive engineer
This enlightening bit Of intelligence is
brought back by Augustus Phillips Of
Falls City, Nebr.. real honest-to-good-
ness engineer who has Just returned
from a visit to Boris domain.
What boy, rich or poor, prince or
potentate. hasn't harbored the ambi-
ton at one time or another to grow
up and become locomotive engineer?
Some boys want to be soldiers or SAIL
ors, others aspire to become miners,
mail carriers, policemen or LindberghA
but nearly every youngster, oddly
enough. must pass through the locomo-
tive engineer time of life.
Fol- hours, while affairs Of state
waited and diplomats cooled their heels
outside, King Boris and Engineer Phil
lips talked Of mogul engines, big wheels,
narrow and standard gauges. automatic
stokers and all the ether doo-dads that
go to make up locomotive. Boris lived
again the dreams of his boyhood when
he held the throttle of a gigantic engine
laundering down the tracks a mile q
minute with the smoke rushing by. and
the destiny Of a hundred souls in the
coaches behind in his hands
Twas ever thus. He wanted 70 bs

Give Thought to Comfort
OF Nurses i'm Hot Weather
To the Editor of The Star.

To the Editor of The Star.
So often through your columns you
have championed the cause of those
suffering from some thoughtless in
justice Will you make a plea during
this almost insufferable heat in behalf
of the faithful nurses who while on
duty in our hospitals are required to
we2r long-SleeVed uniforms?
1t would afford them great relief
from the heat if they were allowed to
wear short sleeves. Even if they came
half way between the shoulder and the
elbow it would add greatly to their
comfort and ought not to be objection
able. One cnly needs to try the eX-
pertinent himself to realize how much
more comfortable the nurses would be.
Their responsibilities are heavy and
their duties very eXacting and it seems
as though if this matter pertaining to
their comfort, and in some measure to
their efficiency, were called to the at
tention of these who have such mat
ters in charge at the hospitals they
would make new ruling for them
And if so if they would allow them be-
fore they could have time to make other
arrangements during this heat to roll
their sleeves up above the elbow. Dur
ing such heat the well being Of the
nurses is of infinitely mere Importance
than the propriety expressed by long
sleeyed uniforms.

tached to it was merely that OF the
science which treats of the condition,

Exit From Haiti.

Under the terms of a new treaty OF
friendship with Haiti, made public in
Washington yesterday, the Withdrawal
OF American Marines from the country
is to take place "aS soon as practicable, y
and in any event commencing not later
than the end Of 1884. The pact was
signed at Port au Prince on Septem-
Der 3, but must be ratified by the
United States Senate and the Haitian
Parliament. 1t contemplates the virtual
termination Of American occupation in
the island by superseding the treaty
of 1915, which would have expired in
1886, and under which the Marines
began their occupation for the pur-
pose of restoring and preserving order.
The agreement represents tangible
fulfllment OF this Governments pledge
to return Haiti to native control at the
earliest moment convenient to both
countries. All civil services in the island
will revert to Haitians. By the time the
Marines leave, two years hence, the
Haitian National Guard, which for
seventeen years has been under Ameri-
can direction, will come fully under
Haitian command. Only form Of
financial supervision in the island will
remain in American hands, a fiscal
representative" Of the United States
being empowered under the projected
arrangement to administer tariff and
customs affairs. But this supervision
will be abolished as soon as $4,000, 900
OF Haitian bonds has been amortized.
The last issue Of these securities Is
scheduled for redemption by 1912, &C
cording to the present American finan-
cial adviser in Haiti.
From every standpoint the revised
relationship with the island government
is welcome. 1t is in line with the
United States general policy of un-
selfish helpfulne-s toward Latin Amer
lean countries, especially those which
lie within the Caribbean area. At hcme
and abroad the fiction is sporadically
propagated that the colossus of the
north by hook or by crock is bent upon
subjugatirg the liberties Of so-called
backward people to the south for
It's own purposes. American interven-
ton in the affairs of Haiti is about to
end, but its b2neficent effects will be
lasting. 1t is chapter in pan
American history of which the American
people have no reason to be ashamed.

California Primary Results

D. Phelan. chosen midway in the f"st

stances very different from these now

faction and prestige of a considerable
demonstration of strength with the

about the nomination of a progressive
ticket at Chicago. against the desires
Of the conservative wing of the Demo-
cratic party. and hopes to ride into the
Senate on the wave Of economic unrest.
So far as the primary in California may
be considered to have afforded any in
dication of the lne.up of the two par
ties in the national election, its showing
is that the division is approximately
normal. There were upward Of 400 900
votes cast in the Democratic primaries
and upwards Of 100000 in the Repub-
lican contests"
"McAdoo can be depended on to make
a hard fight, and his chances Of cleo
ton are regarded as remarkably good"
AYERS the Roanoke Times (Democratic),
while uncertainties in the party align
ments are declared to exist by the New
York Sun independently. The Sun re-
marks: IF Smith followers in Northern
California are likely to vote for the
Republican nominee, particularly since
he is an outSpoken advocate of repeal,
there are almost as certain to be defec-
tions from the Republican ranks in
Southern California. where McAdoo
showed his greatest strength in the pri-
mary election. The retired Iowa and
Kansas farmers, who have contributed
so greatly to the upbuilding of Los An
geleS, will have a hard time swallowing
a champion Of repeal, particularly when
they can vote for a man who has given
reluctant and nominal approval to the
repeal plank adopted by the Demo-
Gratis"
"The California primary returns" in
the judgment Of the Louisville Courier
Journal independently. will be a most
disheartening sign to the Republicans"

that "the result demonstrates definite

The Boise Idaho Statesman (Repub-
lican), states as to the future of Nc
Adoo: Political observers are speculat-
ing on how long McAdoo would keen his
Senate seat. granting that he should be
elected. since undoubtedly Roosevelt, II
he should win the presidency, would call
on McAdoo'S experience in the cabinet.
McAdoo. after all. is not so much the
forensic, legislative type as he is the
man OF policies and Of execution"
