WHITE SLAvERS
Lake Boats Aid in the Traf-
fic in White Slaves in
Chicago

Chicago, Sept 3.-The summer
saturnalia of lake boat excursions
from Chicago across the lake and TO
nearby ports and resorts. the har-
vest when the boats carry the bulk OF
the yearly 100000 passengers re-
Ported by the Harbor Commission,
has reached hectic climax this year
that has aroused the Illinois Vigi-
lance Association to complaint and
denunciation. The boats that depart
with bands playing, bunting whip
ping. spooners spooning TO the point
of reproach and Joy quite uncon-
fined have been under surveillance.
These excursions have been found to
be the first aid to white slavery not
occasionally but frequently the en-
trapping of girls In "the silly sea-
son" and their sale into white slav-
cry In houses of the levee.
Never were these promlscuous
steamer trips such scenes of IL
cense as now. nor the results follow

LET ALL COMPETE

II is doubtful IL the public will
stand Tor any whine on the part OF
men who presume to fly: That propo-
sition OF the Wrights to have Curtiss'
aeroplane "broke-up" sounded like
the blubber of small boy. Are the
Wrights jealous OF other experiment
ters in aviation? II they are they
are poor soldiers. Let them go out
and do their best and then II some
body excels them let them act like
men and make the best Of II. They
have no patent on navigating the
skies. And any devices that have
been invented are likely the results
of the experiments of dozens of in
ventors. Consequently the people
should not encourage this disposition
to drive out opposition and leave
the whole matter to one man or one
device. Possibly somebody has bet
ter notions about aviation than the
Wrights and, anyhow, it is the
worlds work, one of great difficulty
that will take the constant thought
and experimentation of the most
acute intellects for decades and possi-
bly, centuries TO perfect and make
it commercially practicable Indeed it
is questionable whether real "air"
lines will be established between our
great cities In the next one hundre
years as competitors with steam and
electric lines for transportation. Avla
tion is an experiment, at best an av-
ocation, and the field should be kept
free 10 all who really seek the solution
of this problem of the centuries.

Afterwards, when the mothers with
the sleepy babies and the fretful
children are lolling all over the chairs

moon has come up, the young folks
gravitate to the upper decks. There
they place steamer chairs in pairs in

RENoUNCING ALLEGIANCE

OF all men on this earth, save the
Cinnamon, perhaps your American
hangs most tenaciously to his al
legianee to the country. 1t is a rare
thing when native OF this country
foreswears allegiance to Uncle Sam,
and one may encounter Americans
who have resided in other countries
for a lifetime but who still call the
United States their Country"
The fact was brought prominently
to the attention of the world the
other day in report concerning the
nativity OF nearly two thousand per-
cons who have become naturalized
citizens OF Great Britain within the
past year OF the number Just
twelve We're Americans, and even
that small number caused the people
o. this country to marvel that there
were so many persons who had re-
nounced their allegiance to the
United States.
When 1t is remembered that there
are thousands and thousands of Amer
leans in England, many OF them do
ing business there with never a hope
OF again living in this country; when
one remembers that there are hun
dreds OF Americans who have bought
homes in England and decided TO
make 1t their residence for the rest of
their lives, 1t is not strange that
twelve should sworn their allegiance
to Great Britain.
But law passed by Congress some
years ago Is going TO make a differ
ance In the future. and more Ameri-
cans may be expected to renounce
their allegitnce to this country That
law Is to the effect that in order to be
considered fullAedged citizen of
tfis country, and TO be emitted TO the
protection OF the government as such
citizen, 1t will be necessary for the
person to sp Ind at least six months
in the United States at least once In
ten years. Unless one does so, be can
not obtain passports from this coun-
try, and to all intents and purposes
would no longer be under protection

acres Of corn is an average annual
average. An increase OF one bushel
to the acre would therefore mean
100000 more bushels OF corn next
year. In an acre there are 5000 hills
Of corn. Rich land grows three stalks
to the hill, poorer land should nave
less. Where two stalks grow to the
hill, achieve maturity and produce

WOOD WASTE DECREASING

The waste wood heap continues to
diminish and pass away.
A Massachusetts manufacturer of
brushes recently made a discovery in
Maine, which supplied him with ma
terial exactly suited to his pur-
pose. He went to the Pine Tree
State to buy wood for the backs of
hair brushes and the handles of
shaving brushes. and CHANGED TO visit
the yards of q spool maker, who was
using white birch. The spool man
took the white part of the wood only
and was throwing away the red
burned or dumped in the lake
TO be rid of II.
The red hearts were exactly what
the brush maker wanted, and at lit
tie more than the expense of freight
he supplied his factory.
This is typical of the trend OF man
ufacturing. Waste of wood Is still
great, but II is decreasing. What one
factory can not use, another turns TO
profit. Formerly mills threw away
half the forest--tops left in the
woods. sawdust dumped in streams to
pollute them and destroy fish, slabs
burned in perpetual bonfires, and de-
fective logs and low grade lumber
abandoned as not worth moving.
This policy does not generally pre-
vail now. Some mills have put in
machinery to work up their own hy-
products. others sell their waste TO
manufacturers who can use 1t, as in
the case cited in Maine. The prop
critics and uses of woods are now
subjects Of careful investigation. and
the problem of turning to account
the odds and ends and the by-pro-
ducts Is brought more to the front
now than formerly.
The United States Forest Service
has taken up this study in a COM
prehensive and systematic way. In
yestigations of the woods OF partic-
ular states are being conducted, us
uaIly in cooperation with the states
concerned. The plan, when FUZZY
carried out, will include every COM
mercial wood in the United States,
not fewer than 200 species. The prop
critics of each will be investigated,
its hardness, toughness, elasticity,
durability. weight, fuel value. size or
tree regions where grown, the COM
mon names by which 1t Is known IN
different localities, and other mat
ters of this kind. A history of the
woods uses in the past will be gwen
and an account of present uses; to-
gether with suggestions for wider
range of usefulness In the future by
nointing out in what capacities 1t Will
serve best and be most valuable.
