The objection of Gen. Green B. Raum to
the book. I'm Office. written by one Louis

Frankly, which is the worst, to keep one

The New York World, in a pessimistic edi-
torial, endorses the social aIarmists who tell
us that among Young men the marrying
habit Is on the decline. In this direction it
is just as well to point out the fact-and it
is fact-lhat the young men are not di-
| reetly to blame for this socially anomalous
condition. The opposite sex is principally
at fault. After young man has been re-
fused by half dozen good looking maidens,
who eoyly admit that they intend to marry
for money, regardless of love, age, color, or
previous. condition of servitude, the afore-
said young man is inclined to grow cold,
! cruel, heartless, passionless and generally
distraught and misanthropic. Who can
blame him: Then if, say, % per cent of

| per cent are doomed to lead loveless and I'M
