Money for Conscience Sake. . The government received last week, $10,000 for the conscience fund. It didn't know from whom it came or even that it had lost the money. The incident leads one to suspect that there are other like or greater sums that have been taken and not missed. The return of the money does not cover up the crime of negligence that provided the thief the opportunity to steal. How was that loss reported when it first came to light, and who was responsible for the loss are questions that reflect upon the government if it does not answer them. May be that money went out in good form, but may be the man who got it never thought he honestly earned it, and so returned it, to satisfy his conscience. If all the unearned money was returned the conscience fund would fill the biggest vault in the treasury department. Ohio State Journal.

Patter of Rain. Our umbrella hand is getting calloused again ; the score board detains no office boy ; outdoor games and plays are at a hoarse discount, and all our golfing friends are snuffing in their speech. Since it rained on this or that saint's day, must it rain forty other days and nights? The talk one hears about the war is gloomier for these lowering clouds and fiercer for the flashes that split them. No. wonder the wise fathers put their elections in the fall, when crops are gathered and roads are sometimes dry. No administration that ever blessed our country would stand up for a spring campaign under the burden of a long rain. Class hatred is fostered by these s wishing automobiles which know not the just from the unjust. This is the real sort of season for hibernating. The cold of winter braces the nerves and bites one into action, but just now try to wake a child in time for early breakfast some warm-misted morning and note the difference that is, if you get up early enough yourself. There's a real subject for debate in the question whether a lazy summer rain is drowsier than bees in clover. It should be argued before a jury of dormice and the victor crowned with blue corn flowers drooping full of dew. With these rain wreaths down the sky, and the greenness of growth everywhere, and the soft air's healing

touch upon it surely there is gentleness now at the very heart of things, and summer herself is smiling upon us through the clouds. Collier's Weekly.

v Macadam Roads It is a generally accepted fact that macadamized roadways have proved unsatisfactory for both city and country use. Wayne county in the last four years has spent well over $100,000 in the construction of such roads, thereby raising the tax rate to a point where it has become excessive. Such a condition would not be so intolerable to the taxpayer if he had the satisfaction of knowing that the macadamized highways which have been constructed in various parts of the county could be kept serviceable at a minimum upkeep expense for the next ten or fifteeen years. But it does not require an expert road builder to convince any taxpayer that these macadamized roads represent a deplorable waste of public funds. Certain macadamized county highways not more than two years old are today shunned by motorists because they are so filled with ruts that it is unpleasant to ride over them. Even those which are still in fairly serviceable condition are objectionable because of the clouds of dust which are raised by every passing automobile and motorcycle. The fact that no binder is used in the construction of the macadamized road makes their term of usefulness a very short one. Absence of a binder also makes such roads excessively dusty. It is to be hoped that in the future both the board of county commissioners and the city board of public works will refuse to authorize the construction of macadam roadways and streets unless some good binder is used. The experiment the authorities in Wayne county, Michigan, and in northwestern Ohio have been making with roads and streets constructed of crushed rock and gravel with tar binder has apparently established the fact that such roadways are completely satisfactory for both country use and for urban residentials district streets. These roadways have an almost granite-like firmness of surface, are absolutely dustless and have a long term of life. They are also very easily repaired, and once patched are as good as new. It is also said in their favor that they can be constructed for less money than the macadam roads. It would be a wise plan for the county to send commissioners and the city to send Engineer Charles to Toledo to inspect these new crushed stone-gravel roads with the tar binder.

British Diplomacy; Its Danger to U. S.

In this Installment is brought to a close the series dealing with the damage of British diplomacy to the United States. It was written by Hugo Wuefllng of Indianapolis for the German-American Alliance. I have only mentioned a few of the main topics which are dally argued In our press. Cables, and the Associated Press ar controlled by English capital. On account of the common language our papers will naturally copy from Englishnot German papers. There are quite a good many fair editors in this eountry won't they give at least BOTH S1PES? Some of them fortunately do so. More of them should do so. The Hyphen. Yea I am a German-Amertcan. with a hyphen, if you please. I have always been proud of this hyphen, because I always felt that the GermanAmerican element was a very valuable element In our population. This pride does not hurt anybody. Let the Pilgrim-American be proud of his hyphen. A Kentuckian is proud of his state, a New Yorker of his. This pride works for the good ; it will bring out the best characteristics. That a German-American- on account of his hyphen was not as good an American as the Anglo-American never entered my mind. I never thought such a thing was believed, even among Anglo-Americans in view of the German-Americans part in the Revolution, the civil war, etc. Must we be AngloAmericans to BE Americans? Why did the German-American$ come to this country instead of going elsewhere, when the fatherland was too small for them? Love Liberty. Not on account of our (fundamentally English) laws, which bring out such typical farees as the Thaw case for example. Laws laden so with hypocrisy and red tape that they often baffle justice. Not on account of our "clean politics." They came here on account of the principles laid down in our Declaration of Independence, and they are kept here by the general airmindedness and broad views of the bulk of the American people. The most conspicuous trait In the German is his love of liberty. Liberty against' foreign rule, liberty for his political and religious views and his person. Before German liberty the Roman empire broke to pieces, the power of the Huns was smashed, the Osman's aggressions came to a halt, Germany was never subjugated by another people like France. England, etc. Only twice in 2,000 years were foreign armies in the land for a few years, as conquerors only. In a great part of Germany slavery or even serfdom or bondage never existed for 2,000 years. The English do not love nor respect liberty, but for themselves. Theirdemocratic, I adroit government wants to rule not to spread liberty. Are the Irish, the Boers, the Egyptians, the Hindoos free? The iron fist of a people of tyrants holds them down with all brutal force at their command. They rule the seas and thereby the commercial welfare of all peoples of the globe. Their orders are supreme In international traffic. Agaijist this power America issued her immortal Declaration of Independence, and this attracted the German mind. And if the love for the principles of the Declaration of Independence are the standard of American citizenship, then there are no better Americans than German-Americans. How does the German-American feel now after the Anglo-American papers invent the theory of a German-American not being loyal after this country furnished the English with murderous machinery to the amount of a billion dollars wherewith to kill their German brothers and their relatives; after we have by sufferance permitted the British to starve their friends? I know the German-American's mind. Can you imagine a child finding out by some grossly and unmistakably unjust act of his mother that he is a stepchild, tolerated, but not liked or loved? Love Only America. This is our feeling and if this is deplorable you may thank British-American press influence for it. If not well we are not whining for love; we shall do our duty. Mr. Bryan advises that the German-American use his influence with the German government for conciliatory steps. We have no influence with the German government; we expect nothing from It, have nothing to give it. Our government is in Washington and our efforts are to have it do what is right and fair. Why Is the War. Everybody in England and everybody in Germany knows why this war exists. It is the question whether England shall forever hold the seas in bondage and thereby control the commercial welfare of all nations or whether .the seas shall be free. It is a war between England and Germany only, while France, Russia and the rest are bought or duped by British diplomacy to fight the wars of the most cowardly and most brutal nation on the globe. And we ought to fight if ever it should become our sad lot to fight for the Stars and Stripes, but not for England's mastery of the seas. HUGO WUELFING. Indianapolis, June 20th, 1915.

TRY THIS FOR REMOVING HAIRS

Hairs on the face, arms or neck can be very easily and safely removed by a simple solution that dissolves them entirely, leaving the skin soft and smooth as velvet. Get an ounce of sulfo solution from your druggist, apply with finger tips, keeping the hairs moist for a few minutes, you will soon see them shrivel up and dissolve away. Any druggist will sell you sulfo solution; it is a little expensive, but one ounce will be all you will ever need, as the hairs very rarely return after this first application. Adv.
