EDITORIAL PAGE Published Every Afternoon During the week »■»'* m Sunday Morning THE PLACE TO BE. Europe is tied in a bow-knot. Debt and deficit are written across the face of things. Nowhere does the bright sunshine of Opportunity glow with such a welcome warmth as in America. Half the nations of Europe would have to declare a state of bankruptcy if they had to cash in today. They couldn’t survive the shock. They haven’t got the goods. America is about the only nation of importance in the world today that rates as a going concern. So. entirely apart from the matter of love of homeland, America is the place to be. Not only is America the place to be for the big men of financial power. It is the place to be for the average man —the mechanic, the shipping clerk, the farmer. Take a look at the map of Europe. Italy—short of coal, short of raw materials, short of food, short of employment. France om sixth in ruins, the balance short of raw materials, short of coal, short of employment, short of food. England Depending on imports for food, short of raw materials, everything unsettled, readjustment of ma chinery proceeding slowly much unemployment. Belgium— Brussels, a ‘‘show window” where food may be had at exorbitant prices; most of the balance of the country painfully desolate. Holland—Short of coal, short of food, death and dis ease rates higher than ever, unemployment general, raw material supply almost zero. Russia A massive interrogation point where a bale of money will buy a loaf of bread if there is any bread to be bought. Germany- -Defeated, beset by all manner of wolves within and about to be loaded with an indemnity charge that will keep every German humping for the next three decades. Austria- Gone where the woodbine twineth. Poland, Czecho-Slovakia, .lugo-Slavia New nations that must he built from the ground up with supplies largely furnished from without. Rulgaria Submerged and torn by revolution following defeat. Greece —In fair condition, compared to the rest of Eu rope, but in great need of imports. There you are. Europe is a blue and gloomy picture. Tliis is no reflection on any of our allies. They can’t help it. They got that way because they did the right and brave thing, il is the after-suffering from the great pain of war. But it is there. America is the solidest, brightest, homiest, happiest place on earth. America owes Europe u duty. It must provide the things they need in the vast desolation ‘‘over there.” But in plain words, that means the busiest kind of an America —and th V American people love a busy place. There is no opportunity of any kind, material, spiritual, concrete or abstract, that offers in Europe that cannot be doubled upon and trebled in America. Of all places to be, America is THE place. Opportu nity to work is brightest in America. Opportunity to do the big, kindly, helpful human healing of the world—that is America’s. Opportunity to do what the Yankee calls “get up and get” it is writ large on the fertile soil of the United States of Uncle Sam. It isn’t a goose that lays the golden egg between the Atlantic and the Pacific. It’s a wise bird—and it is just now facing its busy season. A MILLION BALES SHORT.

JOYFUL.) If the brand of weather we’ve been having lately doesn’t please you blame it on tho sunspots. Scientists at the University of Virginia have announced the result of sun studies. With an astronomical yardstick they found the measurements of the great sun spot which has recently made its appear ance. The whole area of disturbance is roughly a circle of 45,000 miles In diame ter, while the central, or largest, spot Is now about 28,000 miles long and 5,000 miles broad at its widest portion. This huge sun spot can be seen Just below the center of the sun with the nak ed eye, if a dense photographic plate or heavily smoked glasses are used to cut down the sun’s brightness l/ |f / 1 1 \S^ With the telescope 16 smaller spots are Seen In the same area, and scattered over the sun's surface- are live other groups with 42 more spots. This means that the solar surface is in a very disturbed condition, looking and feeling much like a human does when he has the smallpox. We would like the gas company to know It's all a myth about the. supply of gas being small. For— Just the other day Prof. E B. Frost of the Yerkes Observatory. Williams Bay, w »»-. discovered gas on the sun. The professor watched an Immense gas cloud separate Itself from the sun and float off into space. The top of this gaa cloud reached a height of nearly 600,000 miles, or more than half the diameter of the sun. When Inst seen the base of the gas cloud was 200.000 Unties from the sun's surface. If this gas cloud is headed earthward, and lands here, it'll furnish enough gas to keep every meter clicking day and night for the next half million years. There's only one thing which will keep the local gas company from grabbing it and hiding it in some reservoir. That is: Half a second after gas cloud strikes our atmosphere—if It does come-—not even a grease spot will be left of what once was the earth. Speaking of the weather, nobody knows why it Always rains when one wants to go to a picnic, or— Why It rained ducks, catbirds and woodpeckers at Baton Rouge. La , in j '' Oh, yes. scientists said it was the wind picking 'em up In one place and letting '•it* down in another, but where doe* ihe wind pick up the fish it drop* down Mr Lewi*’ neck?

Again a Sudden Meeting With Bob Brings Back the Old Light to His Eyes! Hamilton Certeis must have heard who wr*re his new neighbors. Of course Chrys would have informed him of the Lorimer plans for the summer. And he couldn’t make us a neighborly call! Nor could the shabby coast fisherman appear in our midst as an ardent lover! In fact, he was about a« free as a prisoner shackled with a ball and chain. Bolshevik hunters would nah him, without doubt, were he to venture in land fiom that shack on the dune. And what awaited him if he ventured out to sea? 1 shuddered as I thought of his friends of long ago, the shrouded dead who guarded the treasure in the ocean depths. Would they not beckon to him, clutch at him, make him their own? It was a terrible vision. I shut up the doors of my imagination and returned '-P things practical. Probably Certeis aidn t connect the Lorimers with an at tack upon the gems. That was highly Important to me. Chrys was pledged not to mention me to Certeis. I had insisted that as long as Bob thought me dead, I preferred to remain lost to all but the family. And Certeis had some excellent reasons of his own for not naming me to Chrys! Twice he had failed to recognize me in the messenger girl’s disguise. I resglved to put it on whenever I should venture out of doors. 1 thought with cheer that the little complications of my life were smoothing themselves out —all except the big one which concerned my husband. 1 watched the three men at work on tho motorboat while they finished the Job. They hauled the craft into the water, found the engine hitting satisfactorily, and then turned the nose of the boat out to sea. They steered her straight to the position of the L T -boat, and circled up and down, back and forth above the hidden treasure! I snatched up the binoculars and fol lowed their weaving movements. Evi dently they were only reconnitering. but UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE STRAWBERRIES (Copyright, 1919. by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) BY HOWARD GARIS. “Do you like strawberry shortcake, I’ncle Wiggily?” asked Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wussy, the muskrat lady housekeeper of the, bunny rabbit gentleman, one morn ing. *‘J am very, very fond of strawberry shortcake,” answered Mr. Longears. "In fact, I could eat a slice right now. Please bring it in, Nurse Jane.” "On, I haven’t any now,” laughed the muskrat lady. ”1 was going to say that, if you wanted some, and would go off in the woods in your auto and bring me back some strawberries. I’d make the cake.” I’ll do it!” cried Uncle Wiggily. “I was very lucky in finding blackberries, red raspberries, and, with the help of Johnnie and Billie Bushytail, I found # the huckleberries. Now I’ll try to find some strawberries. I’ll go look for them!” No sooner said than done. Sprinkling a little pepper on the bolonga sausage tires of his auto and taking hold of thfc turnip steering wheel. Uncle Wiggily started off. Over the fields and through the woods he rode, looking on all sides for some strawberries so Nurse Jane could make a shortcake. “And I hope she doesn’t make it so short that there will be none left for breakfast,” Uncle Wiggily thought to himself. • But, look as he did. there Heemed to be no strawberries growing in the woods, and the rabbit gentleman was feeling quite badly, when, all of a sudden, he saw a little ladvbug flying along. ‘ Dear ladybug.” spoke Uncle Wiggily, with a low and polite bow of his tall silk hat, “could you tell me where the straw berries grow?” "Yes.” answered the red-spotted bug. •I can. If you will ride until you get out of the woods, and come to a field, there you will see many strawberries growing. They belong to Uncle Butter, the goat gentleman, and I herad that they were Just ripe for picking now, In fact, many of the animal children are helping Uncle Butter pick the strawber ries. You may get some there.” “Oh. I'm sure 1 will, thank you very much." said Uncle Wiggily to the lady bug. “Uncle Butter, the goat, is a friend of mine. He’ll give me some straw berries,” he added. Then Uncle Wiggily started off in his auto once more as the lady bug flew away. Just as the rabbit gentleman was coming to the end of the woods and saw ahead of him a big field, where the straw berries grew, something happened And what happened was that out fr i behind a tree popped the bad old Boozup. Now the Boozup was worse than the Boozip and the Boozap put together. The 800- SUCCESS He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the reepect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his t«sk —who has left the world better than he found It, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an inspira tion; whose memory a benedic tion. —Stanley.

When I was about to put the glasses away, the face of the third man came sharply into focus. 'Tiny Goff:” 1 said out loud. Tiny had . j i_:.. J 1 Ar finished his training as a diver. Mary Thomas had said so. Our rivals were all ready for the raid— and we were not! Mary couldn't stay down at the shore; Jim was absent at a distant aviation field; Tommy had left New York for a vacation trip up the Saguenay; and now that Bob was coming home, I hadn’t much mind to give to any affairs but my own. I felt like throwing up the adventure, altogether, only Certeis was assuredly a leader of the Bolshevik element in this country. 1 couldn’t let him win. Some how his capture, and the revelation of his character, and the salvation of Chrys seemed to be linked up with the hunt for those pearls. The boat touched the beach—the men Ptepped ashore. I turned to put the glasses away—l turned and faced—my husband! The binoculars dropped to the floor with a clatter. Bob’s stride brought him close to me in a second. "I think we have met before?” he drawled in his soft monotone. “Yes—yes, sir. We—we have!” I stam mered and retreated, pushing a chair against a table with a bang and making a muddle of my corner of the room. Bob retrieved the glasses and held them out to me. “Such a shame to drop fine binoculars like these!” I was glad I could frame some kind of a spe.rh. I took the glasses gingerly afraid that my fingers might touch his. Bob’s eyes fixed on mine, and I— the proud and self-confident—suddenly became confused. In my embarrassment I made him that queer little curtesy which he used to delight in. And the tired look went out of his sad eyes for an instant. (To be continued.) zip ate shof* buttons. The Boozap ate buttons and buttonholes, but the Boozup ate shoe buttons, the buttonholes and the shoes, too, leaving you to go home barefoot. “Oh, ho! This is my lucky day!” cried the Boozup, as he saw Uncle Wiggily! ”At last I have caught you, Mr. Long ears! Now I am going to eat vour shoe buttons, buttonholes, shoes and all, and for dessert I’ll take some souse off your ears!” “Are you going to do all that?” sadly asked the rabbit gentleman. “Yes, I am!” boasted the Boozup. “Well, first you have to catch me!” bravely cried the bunny. Then he sprinkled a lot of pepper on his bolonga sausage auto tires, and away he went as fast as the wind. But the Boozup ran along after him, almost as fast, chasing Uncle Wiggily. “Oh, if I can only get to the straw berry field I may be safe!” thought Ahe bunny. He steered his auto that way, and, just as the lady bug had said, many of the animal children were in the fieild helping pick Uncle Butter’s berries. “Oh, Uncle Butter!” cried the bunny as he rode into the strawberry patch, with the Boozup chasing after him, though now some distance behind. “What shall I do? Where shall I hide?” “Jump out of your machine and hop up to that shed,” said the goat gentle man. “In the shed is a big pile of straw berries on the floor, ready to he put into boxes. You hide down under the red strawberries, cover yourself up with them and leave just the tip of your nose stick ing out so you may breathe.” “I’ll do it!” cried Uncle Wiggily. and he had hardly hidden under a pile of berries before the Boozup came to the shed. “Where’s Uncle Wiggily!” cried the had Boozup, as he popped into the shed. “I saw him come in here, but I don’t see him now. All I see is a pile of strawberries. Where’s Uncle Wiggily?” “I don't see him myself.” spoke Uncle Butter, sly like and unpretentious. The Boozup looked sharply at the pile of strawberries, but he couldn’t see Uncle Wiggily. ’Cause why? ’Cause only the tip of the rabbit gentleman's nose was sticking out, and the nose was so near the color of a strawberry that the Boozup never noticed it. Of course Uncle Wiggily’s nose twink led the least little bit, but the Boozup never suspected that. “Well, that rabbit fooled me this time,” growled the Boozup as he hopped away, “but I’ll get him next week!” Then Uncle Wiggily crawled out from under the strawberries, and Uncle Butter gave him a pail full to take home to Nurse I in Hi W • • KSVflißi *’ IS*' VVlrl IWLrPi i * 5* •'2 S'■ '1 at' .RPwV ■LJ nTsBAv 1 mi i • U v w viiwiiE, JE > i VUar *' Jk J | \ Untied States - Railrcajd Administraiion- MEMBERS AF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.

The day opened w'ith an early morning review commemorating France’s participation in the American revolution and the celebration afforded varied entertainment for the thousands of American soldiers. There was even a real wild west pa rade down the Champs Elysees ana through the Place de La Concorde, cow girls and Indians, riding gaily through the Place de La Concorde to the music of a wild west band. Droved a rar greater attraction to the French than the brilliant military spectacle. Pop corn, peanuts, lemonade and ice cream were offered in abundance by the various service canteens and flag sell ers were, displaying badges or the Amer ican colors everywhere. The tremendous ovation given Marshal Foch at the American chamber of com merce luncheon and his response to per sistent demands for a speech was one of the most pleasant features of the celebration. Marshal Foch was seated by General Pershing at the luncheon. The marshal spoke of the hearty co operation of the French and American troops and the common ideals of the two people and proposed a toast “to the vic torious American armies,” which he drank after touching glasses with Gen eral Pershing. The applause continued for many minutes. Later in the afternoon there was a scene Of great Franco-American frater nizing at the Paris city hall, in honor of General Pershing.

At Chicago the official record was 96. Predictions were ror a fall in temperature by Saturday night* and very general thunder showers. At 'Toledo the official temperature was 94 degrees, but the weather bureau said that stories of much higher temperatures in the ring where the Willard-Dempsey championship fight was staged were to be believed, because arena conditions made for building up unusual heat con ditions. Last night the weather bureau renewed its warnings to the British dirigible R-f 4 enroute to New York to be prepared tor thunderstorms and similar disturbances beginning Saturday afternoon.
