The national convention of the
BARRIERS Union, held in Louisville the
other day, declined to admit women to
membership. WELDING razor and scis-
sors is not hard work and would seem
to be especially suited to the deft fin
gers of women. And too, the peculiar
ly delicate feminine touch would prob
ably conduce to the comfort and even
luxury of a shave, while woman's
taste would make itself manifest in
the dressing of the hair. But the bar
bers said, mo; let the woman go
back to the home, where she belongs"
And they voted her out by an over
whelming majority The woman may
be bookkeeper, or bank cashier, or
a lawyer, or a doctor, or merchant,
or an author of books; but she mustn't
be a barber!

How to get the children in school
is problem that is ever present. Some
OF the states have enacted truant laws,
and others have laws holding parents
to strict accountability for the attend
ance of their children at school. In
Milwaukee the children are being pro-
vided with hot breakfast at the school
houses, and in Chicago the proposition
has been made that children between
the ages Of six and fourteen be paid for
attending school the amounts they
could earn IL they were working I'm
factories or offices. The man who
made this proposition was doubtless
one of those harum-scarum fellows who
never stop to count the cost or 10
inquire where the money is coming
from. One Of the Chicago papers es-
Inmates and doubtless with approx
mate correctness, that II would require
70 pay the children, under the terms
OF the proposition, eight or ten times
as much as the school system costs.
The suggestion, Of course. will not
amount to anything.

At the time Roland B. Molineux was
on trial in New York charged with the
murder of Mrs. Adams a Georgia SYM
pathizer with the young man sent him
the left hind foot of graveyard rab-
bit, killed in the dark of the moon.
The rabbit foot was mounted, and Mol
ineux wore it as a good-luck charm.
Some time thereafter he was acquitted
of the charge against him and went
forth a free man. Since that time
young Molineux has devoted good
deal of his time to unfortunate persons
who have got in Jail on murder
charges. He has especially interested
himself in behalf of Nan Patterson, the
actress accused of having shot Cesar
Young, the bookmaker. The other day
he sent Miss Patterson his rabbits
foot, with a note asking her to wear
it and expressing the hope that it
would serve her as well as it had
served him.

AS usual, the illustrations in the
November humber of the Sunset
Magazine add much to the attrac-
tiveness of the publication. But
the illustrations, of course, are,
with all their beauty, but a minor
feature; it is the literary quality
that is the main attraction. A
magazine of the best-this is what
Sunset purports to be-although it
is widely circulated in the East,
and the contents of the present
number emphasize the fact. There
are stories and poems by Western
writer's, and descriptions of wes-
tern localities abound. The No
vember number is one to add to the
of a rapidly growing

The Future of Nevada.

The state Of Nevada, having
IRON various causes suffered ret
rograde movement, is now again on
the upgrade OF advancement. No
future census will show decrease
IN population. On the other hand,
the increase from now on in both
wealth and population will be
rapid and permanent. One Of the
best indications is the fact that
men who have made money of late
years from the resources of the
state, are reinvesting their earn
ings in it's industries. Reno, being
to Nevada what Salt Lake is TO
Utah, will necessarily reap the
greatest advantage from this ten
dency. AS the commercial center
and metropolis of a reawakened
state. its future seems to be as

Hard Times and High Death Rate.

Brooklyn Eagle: The republican
talk about prosperity" sounded like Il
joke in the face of the recently printed
tables showing the increase in the cost
of living But in the face of the rising
death-rate and the amounts expended
in charitable societies in New York
City such a claim becomes either a
satire or a tragedy. The death rate
has risen from 1918 last year TO 1924
for the first six months of the present
year. The total number of deaths in
the city last year was $1,000 while for
the first half of this year it is $4,000.
The officials of the health department
attribute this rise in the death-rate to
increasing poverty and TO lack of
proper food and clothing. Bodies weak
ened for lack of food sucCumb to all
sorts of disease. Although this sum
mcr has been singularly cool the pro
portion of deaths among children sUf-
fering from intestinal diseases has
been unusually high. The lack of food
is explained by high prices. The same
wages will buy only about twO-thirds
as much food as they would two or
three years ago, and the poor have to
scrimp themselves in many ways.
