It's an ill wind before t: The old proverb flint blows nobody good" Is particular- j, .. deavorine to place the blame for this |y true in America today as a direct «*»*«"»*» *» unnatural state of affairs where it bo- result of the war in Europe. Judging , BE1 ■=• Jongs cannot go too far. Such un- from the space which is now belug patrIoUc tactics are an absolute dis- used by the western railroads in the daily papers, the men In charge of their affairs are not slow to see the opportunity, as they are advertising | alluring trips throughout the west. Now that the doors of Europe are closed, no better opportunity will ever , present itself for "seeing America Hpf" than presents itself today. With limp of the most glorious months of the year before us, and with the rail roads offering every inducement, many wl'l doubtless avail themselves of the opportunity to see the wonders and beauties of their own country. And not only because of the increased Thome travel will this country be bene- fited, for as a nation, we are now thrown upon our own resources. Paris fashions will be conspicuous by their absence and American dressmakers and milliners will no longer have to label their own work as "Paris crea- tions" in order to sell them. The fact that we are unable to import dress goods, trimmings, etc.. will give our manufacturers a chance to show what they can do. It is regrettable that at this time when the world's commerce 18 practically paralyzed, this country has, comparatively speaking, no mer- chant marine, but the government is now grappling with this problem and, --through the-misfortune of the Euro- yean countries, we should be able to build up a powerful merchant marine capable of competing with the best. Even in the world of art and music, lies a great opportunity for America. Unless conditions change very soon, our Imported stars will have to bo re- placed by home growu material. And Why not? If some of our singers should bo given leading parts in grand opera under foreign names, how many of us would detect the ruse? The same Is true of American artists who claim that Americans are so mad over European art that their work receives scant notice. "Now is the time for them to get together and Show what they have doriff. These are just a few of tho good things which the "ill wind" of war has blown our way. Will wc profit by them? ■ Vr. & ;H HARVEST FIELDS OF MACE. M While in Europe^ more than ten million men are under arms, some of them at the front and others held in reserve, and while, because of this fact, their crops are left unharvestcd, 5tt "Seems a special dispensation of providence that thia. country haa. ~r*ised the largest crop this year that has ever been raised in one year un- der one flag. It is estimated that the state of Kansas alone has a wheat crop of more than one hundred and twenty-five million bushels^Wehaae ail the men needed to gather this bountiful harvest. The cry has *J* beef, pork, mutton, etc. These are being held for higher prices, while the citizens of this country which is in the midst of plenty and at peace with the world are paying more for the bare necessities of life than over The investigators who are now en- grace to the country and the persons guilty of them should be held up to the light of public censure. m m * A TYPICAL CASE. An inconspicuous and innocent-ap- pearing little paragraph in Sunday's is- sue of the Chicago Herald betrayed the anti-German bias In the war news as it Is given in the majority of Ameri- can papers. John Callan O'Lauoiiijn claims responsibility for the article In which this sentence appears: "Other German vessels that are cruising in the Pacific will be sought by Japanese, British and French men- of-war and captured or destroyed." Not a word of what the German ves- sels that are cruising the Pacific "will be doing" while they are being sought and captured and destroyed. No pos- sibility of disaster to the pursuer or of escape for the pursued is suggested. The tenor of the statement is of no particular Interest as a prophecy. What is to happen, no man can tell. It is not even interesting as war news because of its indeflnlteness. Its one claim to Importance lies In Its frank, although possibly unintended, revela- tion of an intention to tell the story from a prejudiced point of view. If this were the one evidence of a determination to reach a verdict with- out being confused by conflicting testi- mony, It would deserve no attention whatever. That it is typical of the character of the news which is being furnished the newspaper reader of the United States is a reflection upon our capacity for a fair and open mind- ed attitude on a question of tho ut- most importance. rH ;*; & THE MEAN I NO OF 'i u b vuooa The cross of the Legion of Hon... conveys with it an intimation of hou <nal>le achievement in an extraordl nary avenue, nobility of character or a contribution to the well-being of hu- manity.

A recent announcement of the con j ferrlng of the cross of tho Legion of | Honor upon a lieutenant in the French! army because he killed with his own j bands the officer of the enemy, causes, one to wonder if we have, in reality, j Rev.
