i jTofessions. to inr'.uence. American opinion and ; (j()Z(ns 0f departments have made their estimates, and dfterthia countiy from carrying out its cr-at war prep, j th eeretarv has had a view of the total.'

nrutloiiS, for tl;e rin of imperial free-hooters who started the war know that if we persist in our determination they are doomed. They want to make peace now a "German peace" and away with their loot. There is in their prof fers no hint of it pentance; no promise of surrender of th lands they haw seized by violence and hroken faith: r.o pledge of refraining from similar crimes hereafter. They ask only a cessation of hostilities that will leave I'm-.-danism free to enjoy its evil conquests and prepare for the. completion nf its plana for worldtonqucsL The New York World well says: "A German peace is still the pe.4ce of the punman, who, disappointed by the results of Ids exploits, is willing to .-top shootim; up the community if the survivors will forget and for've. Nor can Junkertum, in self-preservation, voluntarily consent to any other peace. Otherwise it faces destriK lion at home in the day of reckoning that must follow." It i-" inconceivable that any intelligent American shotill he misled by these hypocritical pb.-as. Junkertum mu-f he destroyed. t'ntil the autotracy which it uphold-- is crushed, there is no peace for any free and honest nation in the world. I.ea-t of all is there peace for u if we or our allies ie'd to these h'audishments We mu.-t deal the death blow to IVi-s-ian ambition and brutality for our own afety. I'caci for us todav, or this year, would he ''lit a :inkv truce leading to a more tremendous contact hereafter. It would mean that Germany, left with her autocratic vtem intact and h-r asress-.ve juiwer uneruslied, would merely j.atise for rest, and gather herself fer a leap at the throat of America. She would then hope th.t a I'urope weary of battle and indifferent ti our fate would stand aside and. have us to hsht tor our existence alone. And that very tiling miht happen. We inut ?o full speed ahead, and aii the war into Germany, or Germany will cany the war into Amerha. ,

The unfortunate feature about the matter is that all the time spent by house and senate on their divergent war revenue lulls has been wasted, and it will he many more weeks before American taxpayers can et nn estimate as to what their taxes are to he. Such delay means paralysis of enterprise and, if long continued, wi'l inevitably bad to hard times, to say nothing abom the effect upon car preparation. The hope of the nation, if not indeed of civilization, lies in the ability of congress to break its record by settling the matter of war- jevenue taxation without delay. With Kussi.i disorganized and falling back to anarchy and the I'niteel States anarchial. financially speaking, the allies are surely entitled to "the blues". It hehooves every reader to write his congressman

and senator that the vital necessity at this time isi

action, action and action. "Too late!" said the German auto' iats, when congress d hired war. It is up to congress to give them the lie. Patriotism demands Immediate action. Justice, humanity and democracy demand that the burden be placed upon those best able to bear it.

KUTHDAY. AlT.t'ST I, 1017. A doubtful day in which to exercise caution, astrologers declare. While Venus ami Mars are in benehc aspect, Mercury and Jupiter are ndvei se. It is an especially fortunate day lor those who arc engaged cr married to soldiers, as it makes lor mutual confidence and promises happiness. This should fK? a very lucky wedding day, especially v. here the bridegroom is in the army. There is a promising sign for all who deal in steel or iron. ThtV should he careful, however, as eontracts signed i-nder this configuration probatlv will he unlucky. Actors and singers should benefit ly this rule of the stars. It is a lucky day for hotel and restaurant managers, although heavy losses are. prognosticated through some public act or national conditions. Jupiter is in a menacing mood where business is concerned. Auain attention is directed to the possihle growth of v.liat-may be called a world hysteria in which tPe human mind becomes exceedingly sensitive to morbid impressions and loses In reasoning power . It tnis which will cause more resolutions in Kurope. 11 ing Alfonso of Spain, who came under a threatening aspect the first of the year, will find September a ciitical period, the seers declare, and he will suffer a severe bereavement. As if to offset the loss of men in the war. the stars presage a rireat mortality among women in the I'nited States as well as in Kurope. The triple conjunction of .Mercury, Saturn and Neptune near the place of .Saturn and in cpostition to Neptune' in the kaierY horo.-ccpe. isread as indicating grave linancial crisis, which is close at hand.

TllV. MNGKH. The singer is a citizen of undisputed worth. Who does his due allotted share to brighten up the eatth. He opens wide the portals of his tine artistic face And sends his soulful message forth with workmanship and grace. He launches on the waves of the astonished atmosphere The kind of noises that we ail arc hankering to hear. He sines a song of home-sw eet-honie when we are far away; He walls a dirge of doom and death when we are glad and gay: He trills of lips red ripe for love when we are lone and Uue; He sines the Joy of youth and hope when life is nearly through. If we are born of Hritish blood he whoops the kaiser's praise. And if we have Teutonic hearts he blares the Marseillaise. The singer is a citizen whom all the neighbors love. They send him slippers from below and bootjacks from above. From neighbors to the rUht of him there come remarks of heft. With able seconds furnished by the neighbors on the left. We all adoro the singer and our lingers fain xvould cling Upon the highly gifted throat with which he loves to sirs. Arthur Brooks Baker.

BUT THE FOLKS A Kl: NT FOOLHD. While tili congratulating the senate on its at inui Jn the i lohildtion ameniiment to the constitution. e wonder why this course cnuhl not hive been dctidid upon 'mu ago instead, of dillyin it along in cenm-ction v.ith tae food control legislation: that is, we- wonder, unless ti:e purpose was one -i delay, which it probably wa. Vhe peojde are not fooled by that vote of 1 to .vhieh tin.tlly passed the measure. A considerable number of th' senators are against it. bat know ing the public temper, they lacked the courage of conviction, to come out against it. Their opposition was selnsh lather than jatriotic cr statesmanlike. One of the last acts of the .-en ate shows this. It was tlio tacking on of an amendment providim; for the creation of a Joint congressional committee to supervise war expenditures, it was not germane to the food bill. The senate knows perfectly well tbat an attempt to ban-

( IRLS TO ENTERTAIN SOLDIERS. I', seemed incredible at hist that the Y. W. t A., or any part of it, seriously contemplated sending American yirls abroad with our armies for the purpose of enter

taining our soldiers and keeping: them from getting j i

lonesome. The propo.-al was so absurd, to anyone familiar with the exigencies of military life and the fundamental facts of human nature, that it seemed impossible that an rational -loup of women could countenance it. Nevertheless the war department has been asked to indorse the project according to some reports, with f.'.v arable results and in Toledo and some other cities an c hoi t is already being made te recruit the girl volunteers. "Only good 'tills with high ideals will be accepted." says Mrs. Kobert Morris, who is promoting the plan. The i e is to he no spooning, and chapenmes are to be sent with each division. With all respect to the women interested, and to the

J giils who may volunteer, we rise to remark that there

Is no country o:i earth outside of the I'nited Slates and Canada that w ill not misconstrue the purpose and c haracter of girls who may be sent on such an errand. There is only one function for women with an army that recognized as legitimate. That is lied Cross work. Girls going with an army for any such sentimental pur-po-e as entertaining soldiers would endanger their reputaion and endanger their safety. They would be b- ter off at home. And though they may not realize it. the soldiers will be better off without then. Ask ,'inv honest soldier.

Studying the Sun to Learn Weather Secrets

While the

world is centered upon war. with its destruction of human life and of the accumulations of human labor, a lew devotee! stude-nts of science continue uninterruptedly their efforts to advance knowledge for the common beneht of all peoples. An example is afforded by the recent establishment,' by the Smithsonian institution, of a new station for the study of the sun's radiation, on the summit of Hump mountain in North Carolina, at an elevation of 4.M0 feet. This station is t cooperate with the o ne that has for more than 10 eais been in operation on Mount Wilson in California. The practiced object of these studies is to promote forecasting of the weather. This is to be done not by watching clouds. but by measuring changes in the radiation of the sun. Very few persons who are unfamiliar with science sec m t comprehenel what is implied by the statement f the fact that the sun is a variable tar. If people in generil understood that fact there xvould not he sc many foolish speculations about an imaginary inlluence or' the war operations in Burope upon the state of the weather all over the world.

y ;auui:tt p. si:kyiss. attention of the whole weather through solar radiation are

not yet known, or have Mut. yet been j thoroughly investigated. It is rot i .-imply light and heat vibrations thai j

the sun viifls to the earth, but there

are other forms if raliant energy; whose sole source is the sun which j may have very great effects not; patent to ordinarv observation. i

It has been established as a fact that great electro-magnetic disturhancos arise on the earth coincident -1with agitations in tl sun. some

of w hose effects are visible in the i f hape of sun spots and other nota- ( hie appearances on the solar surface1. And not only these things, but the output of solar heat and light are subject to jeriodieal variations or intensity. Some of these variations, as the Smithsonian ejbscrvers have; discovered, are of brief duration, important changes taking place in the course of a few days, and ihe.-e ' changes are felt hy the earth, ami ; ire manifested by waves of heat and cold. :

The sales of flat head steel screws, or as they are generally known to the trade, "wood screws", does not keep paei with the growth of general business in the country and for various reasons. In times of hich prices, as at present. tha ordinary user gets by with the old screws, or second hand ones, or el-p uses tacks and nails largely insttad. Again, the use of Über packing boxes instead of wood box"5, cuts out the use of many wood screws. Moreover, in general, the substitution of iron and steel for wcod for so many purposes seriously decreasing the use of wood screws.

If the tremendous explosions of shells and bombs, ami the outpouring of gase into the air. were magnified a hundred times there xvould be n general etfect produced upon l!i" movements or temperature of the atmosphere. The only th'ng that can send a. chill or a gush of heat over the entire continents, or set going great movements in the atmospheric ocean which euveloD the globe, is the sun. acting through its output of radiant energy. Becauso the variation.-: r.f this energy are relatively r-lisht. and too inconspicuous to be directly appreciated by the en.es c f sinht or feeling, they arc ignored by all except those who have the knowled-'e and the experimental means necessary to measure and interpret them. It would be very different if the variability of the sun equalled that of some of the other stars well known to astronomers. Then, provided that a living world could exist at all in the neighborhood of so spasmodic a sun, the truth would be overwhelmingly evideat, and the victim of solar irre-rulnrity could have no doubt alout the source of their discomfort.

Of course, local influences and circumstances have a reat deal to do with local weather conditions, hut to suppose that world-wide, or

rroiHnr nt-wide phenomena o

atmosphere can originate in gunfire or mine explosions is a-s illogical as it would be for a spider to acribe the violent vibrations of his web not to the struggles of a big blue-bottle fly entangled in its outer meshes, but to a tiny gnat alighting near him. In fact. It has not been

I proveel that the most iremenoou

cannonading ever actually produced e'en a loal weather change, notwithstanding the tradition that great battles are followed by rain or storm. We must rot forget, either, that all the influences that affect the

But the atmosphere is so delicate in its adjustments, and so subject to j local influent es which tend to mak the greater and more fundamental eflorts. that ex'treme are lias to bo taken to disentangle the complicated facts. Local and general absorption of solar radiitions by the air must be studied and allowed for. an'1 some of the instruments used by th investigators excel in ingenuity and sensitiveness any of the wonderful Implements of destruction employe-d in war. For instance, the boomete:Used to detect differences of radiant energy can measure down to theh undred-thou saneJth cf a degree centigrade. The great dilliculty is to correlate the solar changes with corresponding general changes in the temperature on the earth, since such changes are masked by many cir-, cumstances, but it is already known that the radiation of the sun sometimes gains or lo.3s several per cent in the course of a few las or

week, and periods of unusual c or heat have thus been traced their primary source.

50,000 People Daily 8S,000PeopleSunday constitute the reading masses who depend upon THE SOUTH BEND NEWS-TIMES for their quick enlightenment on the happenings of the day and leadership in thought of what those happenings mean.

For its splendid reputation for stating only facts as facts, treating the news as narrative; For its honesty of conviction in its expression of editorial opinion logically pointing the way to ?. consistent line of truth; For treating the public .welfare as paramount to private gain championing the cause of humanity, even in preference to churchology or partisanship; THE NEWS-TIMES has literally become as a journalistic Bible to these tens of thousands of daily and Sunday readers AND THERE IS NO OTHER MEDIUM UNDER THE SUN

THROUGH WHICH THEY CAN BE REACHED AS EFFECTIVELY IP THEY CAN BE REACHED OTHERWISE AT ALL.

This is a "tip" to advertisers: Is the patronage of these 50,000 to 65,000 readers to be desired or is to be ignored? The value of an advertisement depends upon the confidence which the reader has in the integrity of the medium. The lay public is coming to depend more and more upon the newspaper to speak the truth, honestly and conscientiouslv, not onlv editorially, but in the news columns and advertising columns as well. THE NEWS-TIMES after this manner is a leader among its readers. They scan its columns for bargains as well as for the news and modes of thought. They scan no other because they have no other to scan. This is a "tip" to readers: You want th.e news, and you want the bet of news, truthfully told, and at the earliest possible moment, and you want editorial direction, with reference to that news, basd upon honest conviction, even though you may not always agree with it, or accept its conclusions.
