THE BOSS
Omaha (Neb.) world-Herald)


During these changing days when labor is go
ing on the 30 hours week and men by the hun
dreds o. thousands going to have more leisure
than they ever had before, it is well, perhaps, to
give thought for moment to the who isn't
going to be quite 50 happy. We mean the boss.
He's the man that the national recovery adj
ministration refers to as an executive who is
exempt from the code provisions for the shorter
week. He is exempt for the simple reason that
he is going to work harder and longer hours and
carry greater burdens than before. He's the guy
who must think up ways and means of changing
his business methods to meet code conditions and
STILL if possible keep out of the red He's the fell
low who has to dig up the newer and higher wage
scale cash. so that the pay envelopes will still be
available Saturday night. He's the man who
must answer 81 wilr' to the President and in or
der to get that precious eagle emblem think and
work and worry never before.
In some future day when we all hope. his
torians will look back upon the summer of 1888
and record it as the period of a new emancipation
OF the American people: when they will tell the
story of nation united to destroy dat OF debbl
Depression; when they will write of leadership
that was courageous and confident and determined
at that future day we hope the Prescotts and Glib
bonses OF the will find time for at least para
graph about the usually unsung unhonored and
unwept hero of it all-the boss. Just in case those
future historians neglect their duty we hasten to
seize the opportunity here and now to cast few
bouquets and laurel wreaths at the fellow who is
too busy to know or care about praise who is only
hoping ne can scheme way to make ends meet
while he devotes forty and twice forty hours
week to the process.

Several instances of property

of some lots which. several weeks

have been lacked up until they
are out of reach of all but mil

on the part of the owners and will

After two passes, North made a
semi-psychic opening of one club. East
doubled and South passed, although
he has good weakness takeout Of one
heart. West bid one spade. After
North's pass East overbid his hand
one trick by jumping to four spades.
As a matter of fact, a bid of two
spades is highly constructive, and
with Vests hand the bidding will
not die before game Is reached. In
view of the bet and East's jump West
felt justified in going to six spades.
North opened the jack of clubs
which West won with the king. The
ace Of spades was driven out and a
spade returned. which West won with
the eight in his own hand. At this
point West played the queen Of dia-
monds, North covering with the king
and won with the ace in dummy. The
ace Of clubs was the next play, fol-
lowed by the queen, on which West
was careful to discard losing dia-
mond. Re-entering his hand with
the jack of diamonds, West drew
South's last trump by playing the
jack Of spades to dummy. and over
taking with the queen. Ruf1ng dia-
mond with his last trump completed
the task Of setting up dummy.
Result-West made six spades and
won his bet. With q heart opening
and heart return the hand must be
handled very carefully, but the slam
Is still there.

THIS name originated from the

meaning isle-Rams Isle. place In
Huntingdonshire, England. The fam
lily was first seated in this locality, but
later moved to Scotland.
This name is totally distinct from
the name Of Ramsey. The Scottish
family of Ramsay, descendants Of the
Earl of Dalhousie, or Simon de Ram
say, are traceable to the reign Of
David I, In 1140. The estates Of RAM
say were in Argyleshire. This family
is said to be originally Of German
extraction.
The coat Of arms we show is accred-
tied to Capt. James Ramsay Of Balti-
more, 1735. The arms were also borne
by William McCreery Ramsay of West
over, Va. Some descendants spell the
name Ramsey, but Ramsay Is the cor
rect spelling for this line.
There are many descendants Of this
illustrious house living In many other
States today.

Mrs. Paddy. "No one ever starved to
death because he had too much food.
But isn't the cutting Of more trees
going to be too risky? We have
cut all on the level that are near
the canal. The nearest ones to that
now left are on slightly higher ground
and we can't make water dow up
hill. So there Is no use In digging
the canal farther In that direction"

Paddy.

attention to Q while ago." replied
Paddy.
That's sol" exclaimed Mrs. Paddy.
'Do you think we can use it?"
"I know we can," replied Paddy.
"I've looked the ground all over. The
water from that spring runs down a
little gully away from where we need
1t, but we can dig another canal on a
higher level to reach the trees we
need and can connect it with that
spring, and with a small dam turn
the water from that into the new
canal. Then we'll have only a short
haul across from the lower end of
that canal to the present one"
1t was even as Paddy had ex-
planned. Mrs. Paddy saw this at once.
So they began digging the second
canal, making it very shallow at first
SO as to reach the spring quickly and
get the water started into 1t as soon
as possible. Until there was water in
it they would not feel safe while
working.

Flight of Ideas.

IF YOU sit near a window where
bright sunlight falls between the
curtains, you may discover thousands
of dust particles floating about, as II
they were trying to find their afin-
tiles. In a perfectly objective way,
they behave very much as separated
families getting together at country
fair, preparatory to going home.
One difference only may be OBJ
served. The dust particles appear to
arrange themselves in accidental
groups. In the case of the families
on the fair grounos, reason or purpose
seems to be back Of their getting to-
gether.
This distinction, however. cannot
actually be made. There Is some
cause back Of all the arrangement
and rearrangement of the dust par
ticles. We call the arrangement &C
cidental for lack of better explana-
ton. But we will hand that all over
to the physicist, who understands the
resolution Of forces.
While you are watching the DUST
particles besport themselves in the
sunlight, you may fan into q revery
and begin to create host Of fancies.
| II you can perform the almost impos-
siole feat of studying these fancies,
they will appear to you as nothing but
accidental arrangements Of ideas.
These fancies or arrangements OF
ideas all have sufficient reasons for
being what they are from moment to
moment. There Is absolutely nothing
causeless In all the world, in q men,
tai as well as physical sense. Your
ideas that appear to fly about without
cause are propelled by that mysterious
uaechanism called association.

fancy dishes, we're any part Of the
impedimenta of this Roman army.
They secured vegetables and fruits
from the countries through which
they passed, when these were in sea
son, and at other times they did with
out these.
Each soldier carried an equipment
that would stagger the modern soldier,
and ran into battle fully equipped.
Such an army was practically tnvin-
chile, for it was composed Of men who
were well, never sick, never weak or
ailing, and whose business was to fight.
When we analyze it broadly, we flnd
that the grains could sustain life for
long periods in almost full vigor, and
with occasional fruits and vegetables
there would be nothing missing from
a normal diet, even though this would
necessarily be somewhat unbalanced.
The modern army, too, has been
said to travel on its stomach, but what
stomachl Do you know that the
$4,000 boys who lost their lives in our
army in France and Flanders were q

The Hay Diet
New Way to Vibrant Health.
BY WILLIAM HOWARD HAY. M. D.

Sanitation reached new heights in
our army camps during the late war,
and our boys were selected risks who
were immunized against every sort of
disease with which they were supposed
to come into contact.
Yet when the influenza struck the
cantonments In this country before
the end of war, these same selected
and well-immunized risks died like
flies.
Look at the records Of these camps
during the prevalence of the influenza
that was so common during the last
year Of the war. You will be shocked
to find death rates running as high as
20 per cent and over. while the death
rates among the weaker civilians, who
were not able to qualify as soldiers,
ran about 6 per cent during the same
epidemic.
Our army ration Is high in ealoric
values-not so high as Russia's, but
high enough for any man at the
heaviest Of labor. The boys In camp
ate perhaps more heartily than when
on the march, and ate chiefly Of long
range stuff, preserved and canned
stun.
Caesars army did not provide for
sickness. The simplicity Of the diet
Of these men left little room for auto
intoxication and its consequent disease.
During the Russo-Japanese War, the
Japanese outmarched, outmaneuvered
and out-dug the Russian soldiers, and
in rugged climate to which they were
unaccustomed. But the Japanese
Army ration then consisted Of Q
handful Of brown rice and q few
vegetables or fruits, and its csloric
value was scarcely half that of the
Russian Army ration.
The feeding of the Japanese Army
then was almost as simple as that Of
Caesars army. The results were al
