a just Decision


A high school teacher Of Plauen,
Germany, has been properly rebuked
by the press and the bar Dr. Weidau-
er is the name of the wretch. and his
0fsnse consisted of wearing a red
necktie az a school picnic The editor
Of the Plauen Anzeiger promptly came
10 the rescue Of the suffering children
and pronounced Dr.. Weidauer an i'm
proper person to teach the youth OF the
city The teacher sued the editor of
the paper, and after a long legal con-
test lost his ease, the court holding
that any man VINO would wear a red
necktie, to a picnic was at least uudig-
mined. rot to say s0cialistic. The court
held further that the editor was quite
within his functions when he criticised
the wearing Of such neckgear.
Ihls was an emiDentIy proper and
Just decision, aside from the political
phase of IL That a red tie is taken as
revolutionary emblem in Germany is
merely an incident. The wearing of a
red tie, especially the shade of red q
school teacher in Germany would pick
out, IS, per -. an offense deserving of
severe. punishment. This case should
be carefully studied by American law
makers and suitable enactments on the
subject adopted for here in the United
states we suffer more through being
compelled to gaze upon red ties thar
any other race on the globe Probably
the best procedure would be some form
Of national legislation that would en-
join tie manufacturers from turning
out any red ties. Nobody looks good in
a red tie and most people look horrible
1t IS matter deserving Of earnest and
prayerful consideration
Meanwhile II is fitting that we should
/ congratulate the editor Of the Plaueu
Anzeiger, the perusal Of which We al
ways look forward 10 with pleasure
for his viddicati6n; the court for its
decision: the pupils Of the high school
for the relief their eyes viii get, and
DR.. WeidaCer for the Improvement that
viii be noted in his personal appear
ance- All concerned should rejoice
With the red tie eliminated from it's So
cial life Germany's future promises &c
be happier than its past has been.
II courts generally would give more
atteEtion TO important matters like this
il would be well.

FORTUNE FROM coRNs AND TEE

It gives one rather an ache in the
mouth 10 reflect that a gentleman who
died recently in London has left an es-
tate Of nearly $4,000. all from making
artificial teeth. Better that way than

cial tooth was created deficiencies had

body-snatchers ravaged the cemeteries

An army Of these ghouls followed Vel

but. once night fell. out came theII
pliers, and out came the teeth of those
dead and dying on the be ttlefields. Il
is a horrible idea. but We are not 50

ANTIQUITY OF CIVILIZATION.

So far as the question Of time is con-
cerned, II deserves notice that not mere

proofs of the antiquity Of civilization

Owens College, Manchester. England, a
