CLAIMS SERIOUS PURPOSE
NOT DlLETTANTE DlALECTlCS

LOS LNGELES, Nov. 16.-[Editor
Herald: Nothing, I think, in Savon-
aroa's long letter calls for my notice
except the last line-his vicions little
Christian CD dig about seeking "to
saddle your meanness on Z. remote
ancestor" It is so like the contro-
versial methods Of a theologian to try
to blink or evade the inseparable impli-
cation that where we saddle our mean
{. .reatness. But it won't suit our
friend to admit this, though he cannot
deny it.
Another example of the erratic
method in argument peculiar to the
theologian and metaphysician is our
friend r. N. 1 have answered "the
head off" his position-or 'oppositions'
perhaps I ought to say-so completely
on previous occasions that 1 could an
swer him again without one further
word of argument, simply by referring
him to date, page and line of the vari-
Gus answers I made in an earlier con-
troVersy; but what's the use? He
can't see an opposing argument though
it be as big as a barn door; yet the
tiniest crack into which a bubble may
be driven catches his eye at once Even
Amy simple little postulate that mo
one knows what is the image of God"
ne cannot accept SlTdlSHlIOTWdTuly,
giving the words their current face
value, but seeks to torture them into
some sort of a roundabout, back
handed implication or "inference that
such a likeness exists. And then he
says that I "juggle!" Such methods
might be excusable among schoolboys
playing at dialectics, b t with grown
ups, taking the propaganda of ideas
seriously, it is a different matter. I
confess to some amusement at first
when r. N and others I could name
used to march up, waving their bogey
arguments, and then, when they got
them riddled through and through,
would bring them forward again under
a new covering with a never touched
me" smile.
But to one who is in the field from
humanitarian motives it grows tire
some.
Because I know that all there is to

the air. sun, soil and water of environ
ment Cor the denial of any or all these
tlings), l am everlastingly concerned
for the improvement of environment.
In this lies the only hope of the human
race; because, as 1 have pointed out
more than once already, improved en-
vironment for this generation means
improved heredity for the next Hered-
ity and environment are one ulti-

past environment.
Freedom of the will is not only a

hideous cruelty upon the helpless indi-
vidual, while bidding social obligation

A building similar to the city hall
could be constructed for the library
and municipal art gallery. The Tenn

an exposition and convention hall site.
These are but brief outlines of the
plans. The projectors have worked out
the plan in detail, even going so far
as to arrange the color scheme. We
believe that our plan is entirely feas-

PUBLIC HEALTH

n NE of the most interesting papers
read at the convention of Los
~ Angeles District Federation of
Women's Clubs was that of DR.. Rose
Bullard, on the subject of Public
Health Education" If there is one
subject as to which the general pub
lie can be accused sweepingly of ig-
norance (and we are all equally cul-
pable) it is the matter of health.
Any reputable and learned physi-
clan will tell you that if ordinary
hygienic laws were popularly honored
and observed-if the 4 of hy-
giene were practiced-there would be
an immediate shrinkage in cases Of
disease, and a diminution Of the death
rate.
It is only within recent years the
public has been awakened to the i'm
portance of discouraglng the actiyt-
ties of the house fly. and people are
not yet sufficiently trained to know
that if a person devours fruit or other
eatables that have been exposed to
public contagion Of any and every
kind, he is taking a hundred risks
with every bite and If he should es-
cape evil results, he may give thanks
for his digestion, which protects him
from the results Of his comestible i'm
prudence.
Not only in the question of food, but
in regard to ventilation, correct
breathing, germicidal measures, cor
rect exercise, and many other matters
of physical moment, the public needs
instruction. The board of health
should have a lecturer at work con-
stantly, giving public advice and ad-
monition on matters hygienic, and
when necessary illustrating his talks
with stereopticon views.

PARADOX
BY oDELL SHEPARD

NOW God has made her body fair
As a tall lily, white
And awe-strook at her vesper prayer
81 Within the pale moonlight
And left her soul copvulsed in pangs,
With scarlet stains OF hell,
And given her beauty serpent fangs
To sting, ! cannot tell
Save that I plucked rose one day,
Then spread the boughs apart
And saw that a green serpent lay
Coiled at the rose-tree's heart.

AVIATION WEEK

A Walton week plans are being de-
u veloped successfully, and the
~ project is gaining the support it
deserves. 1t ought to be doomed and
boosted by every citizen of Los An
geles. We congratulate the organza-
tions that are taking part in the prep
arations for Aviation week. They are
engaged in a patriotic and meritorious
undertaking. the success of which will
constitute one Of the greatest triumphs
ever scored by Los Angeles in all its
wonderful history of triumphs.
Nature has made this city and sec
tion the aviation headquarters of the
United states, a fact that the success
Of aviation week will demonstrate to
all the world. Popular interest in the
week is being increased, and we antici-
pate the successful completion Of prep
arations which will attract to our city
the most expert aviators of the world,
and will make Los Angeles for a week
the center of international interest.

custody Of Deputy United States Mar
shals Tom Clarke and w. H. Robin
SON, the fourth hold-up suspect, arrest
ed at Denver, and Lillian Stephenson.
who was arrested with him, arrived In
Omaha from that city Sunday after
noon.
The man was taken at once to the
federal building in the police auto.
where he was delivered over by the
Denver authorities to Marshall War
ner. From thence he was taken be-
fore Commissioner Anderson, who
asked him his name.
Jack Shelton" he replied. The war
rant read for Jack Gordon"
Anderson asked him IL he could
furnish 81, 900 bonds and the prisoner
shook his head, whereupon the com
missioner gave him over to the custody
of Marshal Warner and ordered that
he be placed in the county Jail. He
said that no examination would be
heard at that time, 1t being the Sab
bath, but that the hearing would be
at 10 o'clock. It will probably be post
poned, however, as Shelton says he is
not ready.
The woman, who was not in irons,
but travelled rather more in the guise
of an honored guest, was also brought
before Anderson and held as = witness
for the examination. She was placed
in the mantron's department of the
county Jail and the matron instructed
to give her the best of everything.
Shelton was placed in a cell opening
of the jail Office and far away from
the other three suspects. He is a
quiet young man, apparently between
% to "a years of age. He was not
particularly well dressed, but is I'M
Questionably the man in the famous
photo. Judging from his appearance
the police and other officials are again
inclined to doubt hat he is Gordon's
brother.
The woman appears to be about 80
years of age and is fairly attractive
and we'll dressed. She said that Lii
liam, Stephenson is her real name.
Il used to know him out in Spo-
kane" she said, speaking of Shelton,
and I met him again just little
while ago at Denver. He said he had
been east, but didn't say what for and
SO 1 don't know anything about it"
F., Shelton and the woman were both
under heavy guards who were instruct
ed that absolutely no one should speak
to them.
Those who were on the Union Pa
cific train, which brought the suspect
to Omaha, say that as they whirled
past the very spot, where the famous
hold-up occurred, Shelton peered out
the window with great interest and
smiled. ..--..
The train was met at the station by
Special Agent Canada of the Union
Pacific, Marshall Warner, Captain
Mostyn of the local police. several
postal inspectors and a Pinkerton
man. No one aside from these and
the press had heard that the suspects
were coming and they we're hustled
away before the gathering crowd had
time to realize what was transpiring.
