HOOKED HERE AND TRERE
Some people may think that Rex
Beach is a summer resort, but the
woman who referred to Babe Ruth
as a chorus girl is indeed benighted.
And they send missionaries to China.
The first thing some people want
when they get a little money is a
car; and then the first thing they
want when they get a car is a little
money.
One good way to curtail armament
would be to hire plumbers to build
the battleships.
Life is made up of little things
and these little things cause the
Small Bank Accounts
Some people ask us if we will accept small accounts.
We are always prompt to say that we do welcome small
as well as large deposits. We cheerfully extend the
service of this Bank to everybody, whether their ac
count is large or moderate in volume. The aim of our
management is to make this Bank useful to all, and it
is often a fact that the safety of a small deposit is just
as important to one person as a large deposit to another.

big things for we know they are
coming, but the little unknown leaks
sink the ehip. The small javelin in
the end of a wasp will ciose your
eye, and a tack will put an automo

the soup will turn the stomach, and
a speck in your watch will stop the
wheels and make you lose the train.

for an over-Sunday visit with her
mother, Mrs. Chris Christensen, and

Mr. and Mrs. Otto Lund are the
proud happy- parents of twin
boys born the fore part of the week.
It is unnecessary to say that Otto
is feting fine. The mother and the
two boys are doing as well as could
be expected.
Charles Higgins and wife and
some friends left this morning for
Lake View where they will spend a
couple of days watching the fish and
game wardens seine the lake. This
has been in progress for more than
ten days, and large hauls of fish are
reported.
Painters have just finished paint
ing the front of the Johnson Gro
cery. The artistic work has added
materially to the appearance of the
building. Only recently the Frick
Drug store was treated to a new
coat of paint. Broadway now has
quite a metropolitan appearance.
Mrs. John Jenkins, who has been
one of the pioneers of Bratton, died
at her home last Sunday afternoon.
She was about 82 years of age. Fu
neral services were held yesterday
afternoon. She is survived by two
sons, Frank and Marion Jenkins,
and one daughter, Mrs. Bartlett, of
Brayton.
Mrs. Geo. L. Gore was the victim
of a surprise on last Thursday even
ing when about twenty of her
friends came in to help her celebrate
her birthday. They spent the even
ing very pleasantly and all thorough
ly enjoyed themselves. The unbid
den but welcome guests departed at
a late hour, wishing Mrs. Gore many
more happy returns of the day.
Wm. Bird, of Des Moines, has
been in the city the past week, as
sisting W. J. Kness with his life in
surance work, Mr. Bird is the gen
eral agent in the state for the Lib
erty Life, which Mr. Kness is repre
senting in this district. He has
made a wonderful success in the in
surance business and has written
more insurance in six months than
most of the agents have written in
twelve months.
Rev. W. B. Wilson, assistant to
President Main, of Grinnell college,
was in the city yesterday visiting
those who were at one time students
at Grinnell and their friends. Mr.
Wilson was here in the hope of get
ting financial aid, as the college is
endeavoring to raise a million-dollar
endowment fund. This fund must
be raised before the first of the
year in order to secure a 1500,000
contribution from the Rockafellow
foundation. The fund no doubt
will be raised, inasmuch as only
$200,000 of the amount remains un
subscribed.
GREATEST PARADE IN HISTORY
American LSgion Parade in Kansas
City Greatest Since the Days
of Lincoln.
What officials said was the great
est procession of marching men in
this country since President Lincoln
reviewed the victorious union armies
passed before the eyes of five allied
military leaders at Kansas City on
Monday.
It was the parade of the American
Legion and the spectacle came as a
climax to the Legion's national con
vention. As a mark of respect of
their elders, the Legionaires had in
vited members of the Grand Army
of the Republic, United Confederate
Veteraps and Spanish War Veterans
to participate and heroes of '64 and
'9B did their best to keep step with
the youngsters who wore olive drab
and navy blue.
When the long procession swung
into line it was led by the five men
■whose names figured prominently in
spelling the defeat of the Central
empires—Foch of France, Diaz of
Italy, Jacques of Belgium. Beatty
of Great Britain, and Pershing.
At Eighteenth street, and Grand
avenue, where a reviewing stand
was located, the five leaders and
their staff dropped out of the line,
mounted the platform and reviewed
the marchers.
TUMULTY ON WILSON
Joseph Tumulty, who served as
secretary to Woodrow Wilson while
the latter was president, has written
a story which some newspapers are
running in serial form concerning
the work of his chief.
In this story Tumulty seeks to an
swer all the criticisms which have
been directed toward the work of
Mr. Wilson as president. He tries to
show that in all his decisions Mr.
Wilson was governed by the evi
dence in hand and not by personal
whims.
Without a doubt Mr. Tumulty
will present a good paper showing.
He is a capable lawyer, schooled in ,
the art of preparing briefs. Some of
Napoleon’s biographers could see no
faults in their hero. No matter what
he did, they found excuses for its
doing. Tumulty is playing a sim
ilar role in the case of Wilson.
The tenor of this Tumulty story is
revealed In its first chapters. He
explains Wilson’s failure to give Col
onel Roosevelt a place in the army
because his application was not ap
proved by regular army officers. He
explains the failure of General Wood
to be sent to France in command of
the Eighty-ninth division as a bldn
der on the part of General March.
This story will probably satisfy
the strong Wlison admirers, but it
will make no eonvorta to the ciWre
of Mr. Wilson. The -efusal tn place
Colonel Roosevelt ftt the head of a
division of volunteers could have
been justified because it was not
approved by jealous regular army
men. But Tumulty does not go to
the root of this proposition. Roose
velt received nothing from the Wil
son administration by premeditated
and studied neglect. Tumulty knows
that one of the slogans of democrat
ic politicians in Washington and in
the country as a whole when the
war broke out was that “Roosevelt
shall have no recognition from this
administration. He received none.
There were literally scores of oppor
tunities aside from that of a division
commander in the A. E. F. where
Wilson could have used Rooesvelt to
his own and the advantage of the
country.
The facts are that McCombs. for
merly chairman of the national dem
ocratic committee, has written p
most scathing criticism of Wilson.
In his articles on the subject Wilson
is set forth as one of the most selfish
men in all history. And McCombs
furnishes a wealth of evidence to
sustain his arguments. Tumulty is
trying in his defense to serve as a
foil for Wilson. He hopes in some
measure to break the tremendous
force of the McCombs articles.
