8HOW 'EM, YANKS.

Br. Darls, the kaiser's dentist, in .his gripping letters in the Tribune, «ay$l that the German government prepared for war for forty years, and made the land one vast arsenal. The ttJnited States began its preparation for war sixteen months ago, and now the war department announces that fifteen of the sixteen government filants for the forging and machining •f cannon are complete. The sixteenth |lant is 85 per cent done.

The Germans went to war With an Abiding faith in their numerical superiority and their better equipment. They knew that they had .worked industrial wonders for four decades and they believed, as one German has put It, "that they were always right because they were 80,000,000 strong." The United States went to war only ttvhen, war became a necessity, and today its armies give the allies unquestioned numerical superiority on the Western front and its factorie.s are furnishing the enemies-, of the central Jjowers with the finest equipment ever Vised in war.

The United States has Just placed In commission a destroyer of the latest and largest type which was built complete within seventy days. It used to

the best yards in America full twenty-four months to achieve this result. The nation's shipyardsare turning out' cargo boats at a speed unprecedented in history, even as its war plants are turning out weapons and mnmimltion and supplies of every kind At a rate of which none dreamed a year ago.

Efficiency, it seems, is not monopolized by the. German empire. Those Ardent Germanophiles who, for decades past, have praised all things Gertnan /from jiniversities to factories and froUS: municipal bookkeeping to torfipn trade methods, must revise their Judgment*,

ed (less than 200),-that in playing ball they were making bulk salaries which allowed them to invest heavily in war bonds and war stamps, ami, too, it was believed that the game should go on as public amusements of character are cncouraged in the countries of our allies.

Secretary Baker has ruled that the "work or tight" order, so far as it relates to the national game, shall not become effective until Sept. 1, and for nearly five weeks more the man with an afternoon off is not to be denied his pleasure.

The baseball magnates, although expressing readiness to comply promptly with the governmental order, tried hard to persuade the war department to permit them to finish the season. They asked leave to complete their schedules, and to close October 15. Secretary Baker, however, holds that no player should find difficulty in obtaining suitable employment by September 1, and on that date the ball player cease® to be a privileged character.

It is hard to quarrel with this ruling. It lessens mater!ally the financial loss which those with investments in baseball plants must face. It simplifies the problem of the player who must seek new employment. It should put the public in good humor.

Baseball patrons are usually enthusiasts and the summer sport means much to them. They can enjoy it, under the new ruling, while the vacation season lasts. With the coming of the first fall month most men begin a new industrial drive. The ball players will start with the rest, this time.

READ THIS TWICE,

This editorial was written for you by Uncle Sam. It came in the Tribune's mail today from the council of defense. Any change or alternation would spoil it, so read on:

When an American citizen,* instead of spending $100 for something he wants, denies himself and lends the money to the government, he performs a double service.

First, he furnishes our gwerrttnent with $100 to use in the prosecution of the war.

Second, he has relieved to the extent of $100 the drain on our goods and services that is, material arid labor.

To make the articles or article he would have bought, or to manufacture others to take their place in the market would require materials and labor. In addition, to get the article to him, labor and freight space would be required.

By doing without the article, he has left material to be used for war purposes, labor to be used in .the same way, and he has also relieved the transportation facilities of the country.

This may not be much in an individual case, but when hundreds of thousands and millions of Americans pursue this course it means millions and millions of dollars left for uses of the nation in this war, millions of hours of labor free to do war work, and a vast amount of freight space free for national uses.

These sacrifices are easy to make they are small and trivial compared to the sacrifices that our soldiers and sailors make daily while they offer constantly their lives for their country •—the greatest sacrifice of all.

LEAVING THE SHIP.

The reports that the Turks were leaving the German ship like rats seems a little previous, but its consummation is merely a matter of time.

THE HEEKIft SPICE CO. Cincinnati, Ohio

war expert, three weeks ago predicted that the Turks would never sit idle under the gradual taking of the Balkan pawns by the kaiser.

It has been a foregone -conclusion that the alliance which Germany formed with Tujkey would prove a plague for the Germans, so the current report of trouble between Berlin and Constantinople is no surprise. In fact, the near-eastern* question has never been anything but troublesome, and whether the Germans won or lost, it vv ts certain that the old quarrels would reappear.

Hut there will be very great surprise if the friction between Bulgaria and Turkey should result in the withdrawal of Turkey from its present relations with the German empire. It is hardly thinkable that any such result could follow German favors to Bulgaria, when it is certain that Turkey, lacking German support, would lose to the allies more than Germany .Would ever think ot

allowing the Bulgarians to

grab. It may be that the situation now developing will give to Turkey only a choice of evilfc, but Without German support Turkey would be at the mercy of Gen. Allenby, and Constantinople itself would not stand against the invasion.

Therefore, Turkey may be expected in the long run to take as much of helpless Russia as the Germans award, and to put its jealousy of Bulgaria in storage against the time when, possibly, the quarrel can be resumed under more favorable circumstances.

HOROSCOPE.

"TWe Stan Incline, Bat Do Not Compel.'*

Friday, August 1918.

This is an unusually auspicious day for must activities. Jupiter, Saturn and Mars are all in benefic aspect. Neptune is slightly adverse.

Jupiter seems to foreshadow an acceleration of business in the west. California comes under a sway making for new enterprises and the establishment of many new factories is foreseen.

Saturn again indicates the attainment of success in mining in new places and for little-used minerals. This has been foretold by the seers since 1915.

The aspect of Satum to read as presaging extraordinary interest in "products of the earth, both vegetables and minerals."

Today's rule of the planets is most promising to agriculture, especially in the south and west. A plague of in

France vill continue under straiTi and stress, the stars foreshadow until when "a great culmination" will orins possibilities of peace.

Jupiter and Venus close to the parallel of the radical moon in the horoscope ot the king of Italy are read as indicating peace with victory which" will como unexpectedly, but there may be serious anxieties. Increase of territory is foretold for Italy.

The coming of world democracy with the new era is indicated by the planets. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a happy and prosperous year. They should be exceedingly discreet in their actions.
