course be safely out of harm's way, nfnee there will be no one on the Iowa to work the gunb. The experiment will undoubtedly convince even the most skeptical that If you drop enough bombs on a battleship she'll feink. It is quite likely that If the world shall engage again in a serious bomb-dropping contest iu war, there will be equipment on battleships which will make bombrtrojiping a more hazardous occupation than it is In the little undertaking eff the Virginia Capes, In which the Towa plays the part of the victim. On the whole the bombarding of the Iowa must strike the average citizen as not a very Informative undertaking. Obviously it cannot be staged under the natural rules of the fighting game; and it is inconceivable that much that it practicable or useful can be got from the experiment.

A GREAT AMERICAN The American Legion suflere.s the chief deprivation, but the country as a whole, is a heavy loser through the sudden death cf Col. Frederick W. Galbralth, Jr., national commander of the Legion. For the sterling qualities which made Colonel Galbralth a successful business man, that e.-.rned for him high recognition as a soldier and led to his leadership or the American Legion were being devoted to advancement cf national interests, though hi a pi"iitiary concern whs for the American service men in the World War. He died in the service, for the deplorable accident at Indianapolis occurred while he was journeying on the business of the great organization which had entrusted him with responsibilities most Important. Colonel Galbraith's training precisely equipped him for the duties which fully engaged him since his elevation to the commandership last September. In early life he had been a railroad track walker, then a Bailor, later a business man. and he had spent a number of years In the National Guard. ' Always his contracts has been such as to develop the love of men and to strengthen his advocacy of the square deal. He was a powerful factor In establishing the purposes of the Legion and In upholding Americanism. All his activities wera undertaken in a spirit of patriotism that was an Inspiration to observers. Members o the American Legion will especially feel the loss of their commander at a time when he was engaged In promoting legislative and other measures to guard their welfare. The caiVe of the disabled soldier was particularly near his heart and he was tireless In working out plans of relief and In seeking government support for the nation's heroes. The movement for the consolidation of the various agencies of soldier relief at Washington was largely stimulated through his efforts. The wcrk -which he was furthering will go on, of course, but it is a sad loss which his untimely death Inflicts upon his family, his comrades and his country.

TEAT AIE-SEA BATTLE The bombing of the radlo-contrclled battleship Iowa to take place June 28, off the Virginia Capes, will not re an altogether exciting event. Under the conditions of the experiment when the Iowa is to set out on her perilous voyage, there will be no living being on board; her movements will be controlled from the battleship Ghio, which wil rot get within five miles of the Iowa. Seven seaplanes and four airships will start In pursuit of her, and these will do their deadly work of dropping bombs cn her as soon as she hasput 30 miles between her and shore. So cautious are the promoters of this experiment that even the battleship Ohio will have orders to make for shore at full speed as soon as the aid forces get In their deadly work. The crews cf the seaplanes and airships will of

YOUTH, AND JUNE, AND WAR. Why do acationists shy away from June? The city man prefers to wait for his holidays until July, August or even September. Yet June, month of roses, of weddiug3, of ripening strawberries, is instinct with loveliness. James Russell Lowell caught the spirit of the month and crystallized it in the precision of beautiful words. Since time began poets have loved June as a full-grown sister of the fledgling spring. June should call the souls of men to brotherhood, for never is the world fairer, more radiant, more suggestive of the celestial vistas that man was not meanf to miss. War, bloodshed, the crushing of the weaker by the stronger, should be unthinkable in June. For ill nature now is instinct with kindness, and In its higher representatives, the birds and owers, carries that kindness Into a lyric of passionate love expressed in blossoming flower and gaily carolled song. The flowrs bloom on to the richer, deeper, lntenser hues of midsummer, but long before July has passed most ur the birds have muted their melody. Their songs h;ive been first wooing and then mating songs; the raising of their feathered families provokes no such paeans of majestic, half-delirious praise. As summer days march by in stately procession to the rich maturity of autumn the freshness that was June's departs. To the lover of innocent and dewy aspects of nature the increase in depth of color, in richness of bloom, is only partial compens;J.on. Heavy, torpid, opulent days follow, like the sanity and course of middle age after the glorious exuberance and almu-t ecstatic buoyancy of youth. For, if spring is childhood, June is Youth. And the world needs Youth needs its generosity and freedom from tradition, its vision and its faith if it is to wipe out the stain of those crimson Junes of war. Youth is the first to fall when money-loving old men quarrel and Youth should be the first to write the spirit of June Into the International treaties of the world.

IT WAS scarcely necessary for the report from Shanghai of a clash between American and Japanese sailors to add that there were casualties. There always are when anybody in a fighting mood picks on American sailors.

WHEN DOLLARS get back to 100 cents a lot of persons will wish they had saved some.

WITH HAGENBECK-WALLACE CIRCUS THURSDAY, JUNE 16

ft

Many cities and towns will fall to receive a visit from a circus this season, due It In said, to the shortage of homes and the building boom that f now on. The Haenbeck-Wallace Clrcua which will exhibit here tomorrow, haa found it n iwcssary to forget man cities and towns It formerly played In, becau.se the circuj lota are no more and In moat of their places are either

homes already built or in the process

of construction. It Is fortunate that the clrcua lot here has not been bu'.it up or Hammond would have been without th. Hakenbfcck-Wai!a?e Circus this season. A downtown ticket office wKl L" opened during the vts'.t here at Summers Pharmacy, Hohman street, near State, and tickets will be so-ld at th name price as charged on the show erounds.
